>>280510255 (OP)all gundam shows are great, nothing comes close to the stories that the franchises tell. I watched shitty mecha
>>280515532It's a creative anti-war mecha remake of Wizard of the Oz, and the appeal is finding the parallels between the source material and the actual show. The five main pilots aren't developed because the real focus is on Zechs, Treize, and Relena. There's nothing wrong with having flat characters if it helps with the theme of the story.
>>280515840Zeta's narrative was consistent. I thought that it was interesting that all factions had the same beliefs but were divided on how to execute it. It was tragic because of it.
People meme that Reccoa had a woman moment, but the show points out that she was mentally unwell over having PTSD and survivor's guilt from the one year war, becoming susceptible to fascists after they temporarily lovebombed her. The Titans also had the same goals of the AEUG, but believed that it should be done with force as opposed to free will. That's why they were funding programs that brainwashed people into being Cybernewtypes. She was probably a doomer who took the accelerationist pill
