I just found that the entire first season of the original Mobile Suit Gundam, English Dubbed has been posted on youtube here is a link to a play list of the entire list of episodes.

If you have never seen the series here is the first episode in it's entirety I recommend you give it a shot. This is the series that began the entire Gundam craze.

I cant believe they are remaking this, still with the way BanDai puts stuff out we probably wont get it till 2020.

Nice find....but its Gundam Seed or bust!

Gundam Origin is a retelling of this series, but from different points of view and while a lot of the events will be retold it's supposed to be more emotional and have deeper subplots.

I know what it is....its still a remake, if they are going back to UC it would make more sense to make a new show altogther imo.

Also SEED sucks ass, sorry West, I really hate that show, especially Destiny, because it started off so great, untill they had the bright idea of bringing back Kira and the space police and replace the new cast with them.

I haven't made it to Destiny yet, in fact I'm still very early in the Seed episodes. I think the show is really cheesy but funny at times. I don't look at it like I would look at Dragon ball Z or Case Closed.

Shit sorry if I ruined it a little for you there.

Destiny actually starts out way better than OG SEED, it just annoys me in the direction they went with it, you will see what I mean when you get to it.

Its not as low as watching DBZ then to GT though, DragonBall GT I dont even have words for that.

The only Gundam series I have ever seen that I didn't really like was G Gundam. It had some great suit designs but it was Mecha DBZ.

I tried getting into Gundam once, years ago. I think it was Gundam wing I watched, couldn't really get into it. Maybe I should try again

@Darth_Andrea

LOL and thats exactly why I love G Gundam, its like mixing old school kung fu movies with giant robots, it was totally nuts and over the top super robot action, theirs not another Gundam show like it at all.

I'm currently watching Turn A Gundam, never watched it before, it comes across different too, almost like steampunk gundam, that and Gundam00 are the only Gundams Ive never watched, and Gundam00 will be next, or I might just watch tekkaman blade :P

Been meaning to rewatch that for awhile now.

That was the show that started it for me, must be about 10 years ago now, when it showed up on ToonAmi, I never looked back after that, I re watched the show again last year, and compared to other shows, it really is Gundam on crack, untill you watch other shows you wont get what I mean, but lets just say Wing moves very fast compared to other shows.

I recommend Gundam X to newer fans also, its certainly one of my fav Gundam shows.

Wing was a really cerebral series. For as much as I liked it it's themes were rather preachy. 00 is the same way, though it's a really confused series. It's about a anti-war anti-military group who tries to end war ... via combat mobile suits ... its really bipolar lol.

I might give the series another bash down the line, but for now I've got Tsubasa RESERVoir CHRoNiCLE and Highschool of the Dead to deal with

ToonAmi was where it started for me, too.

Thats why I kind of hate SEED/destiny, Lacus is pretty much a female Jesus.

However I think you could say the fighting for peace thing about alot of shows/films, its just how the world is for real.

Thats good to hear!

Yeah ToonAmi has to be one of best blocks in kids TV history, it really helped anime get more mainstream in the late 90s.

Gundam Wing was one of the first anime shows I remember watching, I loved it.

G Gundam however remains my favorite.
