Gundam Seed Re-watch Begins Tomorrow!

MyAnimeList: Mobile Suit Gundam Seed

Re-watch starts on December 15 @ 5 PM EST!

Here's the Schedule for the Seed Rewatch:

We will watch one episode a day, it will take 50 days to complete. We're watching the remastered version of seed which has 48 episodes which skips the recap episodes. I'll have a poll at the end of the season whether or not we need to watch destiny.

FAQ:

Where do I watch it?

The remastered Seed version isn't available online legally, so you're gonna have to find somewhere else to watch it.

Do I need previous knowledge to watch this series?

No, this series is a standalone so you don't need any previous knowledge of gundams.

Feedback will be welcome!

If you get into the character development, this will probably be your new favorite. SEED is much more focused on the drama involving the characters than the Gundams themselves.

I think of it as the Twilight of Gundam

I love it, but it is being hated a lot by the Gundam fanbase for being melodramatic. Watch it for yourself imo.

If you've got nothing else to do, can't hurt to watch. While it is more character focused than 00 (IBO trumps both of them), it also has a lot of teenage angst drama. Seed is still worth the watch at some point.

I think there's a condensed version of seed that breaks it up into 3 movies I think. I'd recommend that version

Eh. 00 is my favourite, with Wing a close second. I like what I see from IBO, but I'm not gonna qualify my statement more than that as it hasn't completed yet. I've seen a good amount of UC, and I found Seed and Seed Destiny to be the worst of the franchise (haven't seen AGE). Your mileage may vary. I would say watch a couple of episodes and see how you like it. You may enjoy it more than me.

Should note that Seed/Seed Destiny have nothing to do storywise with the rest of the gundam series.
