Every other gundam pilot. "Omg I killed a human being!" Heero. "AHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHA!!"
well, what did you think would happen, climbing into a war machine? XD
What about mikazuki ??
Actually most pilots dont care only the ones in their feelings
@@shinnskl6222bro Mika killed more people outside of the suit than inside of it I'm pretty sure😅
@dearickangelonej.legaspi6686 yeah...he sure love his gun..🔫 🔫
1:50 Zaku tries to shoot you? Just say NO. The Zaku legally cannot shoot you.
After that? Attack him by destroying his main camera. You won't be reprimaded since it will be classified as self defense.
Then proceed to play the harshest game of "got your nose" ever!
@@AshuraH To be fair, the Zaku's were probably the rudest waker uppers this Side of 7.
Huh, funnier than I thought it would be
Well indeed they legally CAN NOT shoot you
That slap at the end lmao
Mmm, fresh tomato purée!
Mama, just killed a man
"MOSQUITO!!!!" [SPLAT!!!] "....got it!"
Smash that like button!
51:51 surprise
"Top o' da mornin' to ya!"
splat 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
🍅 🖐
I mean, it HAD to be in here. It hit the audience with such force, after all.
Unicorn Gundam first lauch for me is the BEST, the OST hyped up the mood so hard and lets not forget the badass transformation that is NT-D
Plus his dad died burning in the background is such a good topping for that scene
Peak Gundam first launch
Yeah! And have to wait 8 months for the next episode. Watch the 1st episode countless times.
Nah it was barbatos my dude
@@vivkesh6513I mean, Barbatos is pretty cool, but its first launch is nowhere near as hype as Unicorn's.
@26:43 TIL Stargazer ran on code written in HTML
😂
18:23 There's even G-SAVIOUR
We don't talk about G-SAVIOUR in this family
@@SmolShippie we kinda did, at least he does appear in build fighters
@@kira516 Build Fighters is a bit different! If G-SAVIOR complies with social standards and becomes 2D like the rest of the gundams then they are allowed a second chance! xD
Still get goosebumps in that 00 Gundam activation.
I keep forgetting how damned maneauverable that thing is! It's insane!! I only wish my Real Grade went together so easy...
And don’t forget 00 Raiser’s.
00 best series in my opinion really wish they would expand on that timeline
@@redmist6131 yes i agree. The only series who started the sleak mobile suit designs, rather than having a box type proportion.
@@SILENTBULL_9er One of my favourite Gundam series, partly cuz it hits a little close to home with the IRA being mentioned as a Brit who remembers the Troubles! I've already built the Real Grades Exia, 00 Raiser and 00 QAN[T] and they have the Master Grade Kyrios in my local Traveling Man! Really want the rest as well...
39:10 its just gorgeous the music the CLANK the design everything
Devil coming out of the ground like it escaped hell
After 300 years or so, The Bearded Duke and Earl of Hell has rised from the underworld and has now contracted into being Tekkadan's Guardian Demon.
Fun fact: Stargazer is the only Gundam not intended for fighting but rather space exploration, it’s Solar Sail (or the Voiture Lumiere) captures solar wind energy and converts it into propulsion, which would enable it to accelerate indefinitely as long as it’s moving. However, it did end up being used in combat because the base was being attacked, and oh boy it’s fucking strong.
Sounds like an example of 'it wasn't meant for combat but it's surprisingly good at it'. Exploration is a pretty tough thing in any environment, after all.
@@LordTyph its probably not the strongest but if compared to the main Gundams it’ll probably be placed around the top of the bottom half to the middle ground in terms of strength, maybe higher if we saw what it do more

They finally added pilot keys to stop plucky young protagonists from stealing military hardware, only for the keys to be left in the cockpit 😑
I first read pilot keys as "plot keys" lmao😅
Earth federstion is truly -not- a idiot
Sounds accurate enough. A careless soldier left important thing in the worst place. Like War thunder leaked military document incidents.
Unicorn OST just hits different man.
Hiroyuki Sawano never fails to get me in the heartspleen.
12:29 *ROASTED*
Roasted and detonated
26:44 "Next command, please." *proceeds to enter 2001 era html that makes button animate on mouseover*
If the likes of V2, Rebuild and Lupus (Rex) get their own spotlight, then the Full Armor ZZ and GP01 Full Burners should've been included too.
Full Armor ZZ I don't know but GP01 Full Burnern I agree I should have included it.
@@leyellowladybug4924yeah if you had included full armor ZZ then you should have included full armor unicorn, and narative b & c packs, as well as aile, sword, and blast strike, as well as the other impulse strikers. Difference between the lupus to lupus rex is that they are rebuilt with different equipment, not just swappable or removable equipment
Same for the gp02 and its nuke
And the psycho gundam and the mk.II
@@valentetellezperez6538main gundam only bro, read the title.
45:20 "I Giorno Giovanna have a dream"
is that Giorno va?
Yes @@ChrisTian-sd5yq
Dude, make a joke next time like "I, Giorno giovanna, have a mech suit"
Gundam X having the "if this works I'll believe in God" line will forever not be funny to me
Garrod is actually the most badass first episode of any Gundam except for maybe Domon. Dude gets a girlfriend, steals a Gundam, defeats the enemy, fires a Satellite Cannon and more in the first episode, it's the most stacked first episode.
Tiffa: "..."
Damn the first gundam really show the weight and movement of something big...
The way the wing zero custom flaps its wings and flies off is gorgeous
I still say it's the prettiest Gundam ever designed.
@@pokemonsonicgirl123 I would certainly agree with that. I know it's not relevant to this video but another beautiful shot of a Gundam that comes to my mind has to be the 00 quanta covered in flowers at the end of a wakening of the trailblazer
peak tbh
That last second was gold.
Kira's the GOAT. Dude doing OS updates on-the-go. He had to do it for Strike and then Strike Freedom, both combat-ready DURING combat. Also Calibarn... Now I understand why its weapon was shaped like that. It's her freaking broomstick!
*adds proper edit* It's her freakin BOOMstick!
Well I believe this is where you say both is good.
Well yeah. A witch needs her broomstick.
Ah yes, Kira "jesus" Yamato, the over the top ace from seed&seed destiny. I mean he's good but just written too OP, i much prefer Athrun and i still think there is enough stuff going on with him to get a third series or a continuation with him in the leading role. Kira is already used up after seed destiny.
TBF Shinn was also programming under the radar.
Gundam Exia still my favorite
same, not a gundam fan here, but heck exia was the only one that catched my attention with its story.
Yeah, it's like it has Die very rough playing as it's boss music
One of the best! I was just listening to the trans-am quantum burst OST. which brought me here.
same here bro! when it comes to close combat, i'd choose Master & Exia
Witch from Mercury's prologue was harder than I expected. Daym
TWFM generally comes off as your stereotypical anime, but it has some really dark moments in contrast to it's brigher stuff. Case in point: 🤖🤚💥
@@johnprice6271 what else the dark moment other than the Aerial Gundam (is made out of a human clone, at least the system of it), Guell and his father, the tomato?
@@ReigoVassalThe experiments made on the kid that got turned into a gundam?? The disposable clones??
@@ReigoVassal The multiple betrayals that happened within 3 episodes all because: 1 person wanted to keep another safe and sabotaged them. 1 person had an alterior motive that sabotaged a good plan. A Gundam told it's biggest ally to "f&@$ off." 1 person got ratted out for being a spy for terrorists. Do I need to continue?
@@johnprice6271 yes please
48:07 The horror in her eyes as she realizes her toddler has full control of a war machine, unconsciously at that
I'm not the biggest fan of the slow pace of the series, but it knew how to handle the tense moments. A space school...
Unicorn gives me chills every time man. Also the Nu Gundam! How awesome is it that Amuro says his iconic "Gundam, ikimasu!" line for one last time.
Man I never realized that it was the last time he ever said it...
00 still has my heart. Still my fav season and Gundam series ever.
Wing Zero’s activation in Endless Waltz has to be the coolest.
Was I the only person here for that banger music from Wing?
24:16 I love this sound so much
the Turn A feeling like an awakening demon is so fucking cool, man. Really sets up its origins.
Forgot how ominous the theme for the Turn A was, seeing it hoisting the rifle right away. "Oh boy, here I go killing again!"
48:46 I still think Lfrith's activation is one of the greatest first launches in Gundam history. Elnora's sheer horror the moment she sees her toddler daughter has activated the most powerful weapon in history, contrasted with the frankly heartbreaking scene less than a minute before of her comforting said child after they're thrown into an active battlefield, with friends and family dying all around them. And everything is completed with the OST, emphasizing just how earth-shattering this moment is, how extremely WRONG this moment is. Eri has just been tossed into a life of war and suffering. Elnora knows it, the music knows it, the audience knows it, it's just Eri herself who can't understand it.
Gundam Wing, Iron Blooded Orphans, Double O and The Witch From Mercury all bangers!
Imagine if u combine all the best part of the Gundam to make 1 ultimate Gundam, Gundam wing blasters + barbatos tail and claw + Gundam exia gn driver + witch from mercury system and deployable weapon.
The Beast of Possibility, the Unicorn, just something about how that Gundam is the epitome of Deus Ex Machina. Sends chills down my spine.
endless waltz wing zero is just majestic
My all time favorite GUNDAMS: Armuro's Gundam Zeta Gundam ZZ Gundam NU Gundam Shining Gundam Burning Gundam Wing Gundam Strike Gundam Freedom Gundam Strike Freedom Gundam Unicorn Gundam Destiny Gundam Akatsuki Gundam Impulse Gundam Infinite Justice Gundam
No barbatos?
31:11 This is were the legend begins
I'm sorry, but the actual legend begins in 0:00. All of rest is part of this first legend.
he prolly mean heisei~reiwa part of legend it is *that* legendary after all
Thunderbolt bro was just having the time of his life, he truly was made to be the opposite of a regular Gundam pilot.
thats why i like TB so much, Io is such a different character but it doesn't glorify it and actually shows you hes not the best person
the zeta gundams model number is actually MSZ-006
Oops
Ngl, Xi Gundam first appearance is really impressive, like a fallen angel from the sky itself.
More like a beast to be released. I absolutely love the shot where only its hand is coming out
A disgraced angel
There’s just something about the startup sounds of the RX-78-2 Gundam that are incredible to listen to. It’s also great to hear all the different startup/boot-up sounds of all the mechs.
I just recently bought the perfect grade rx-78-2 (same one Adam savage built), I don't know anything about gundam, I just enjoy making the models
I love videos like these and I’m so glad someone finally made a comprehensive one. Nothing beats the feeling of a sick lauch sequence for a new mobile suit. I still think the Double X is my favourite though. So badass. My only complaint is that you kept some instances of first combat for certain mobile suits but not other (basically I just wanted to see the Zeta and Nu Gundam kick ass lol)
How many Decades of History/Legacy/Titles my friends. One of the most iconic franchises. One of the Best Genres in the History of Entertainment. And surely they have many more years ahead of them. Thanks.
i love gundam so much
12:20 glad you included the part where Domon absolutely fucking dunks Master Asia into the ground
Iron-Blooded Orphans is where my view on Gundam started to change. I just love the clanging metal sound design. 🔥
5:04 I love how they have everyday car tires lashed to the hull with rope to protect the ship & MS from colliding... :P
was not expecting the end like that
😂 🖐️🍅💥
Always loved how the Xi gundam just shrugs off the grunt suit at 46:53 lmao
For an anti war anime, they sure made war look fun
IBO:💀
You got WIng Zero's first launch/activation wrong. Wing Zero TV's first launch is episode 24, and Heero first uses Zero in ep 26.
When colonies were getting wiped out left and right
Yeah, I was shocked they used an Endless Waltz scene.
As they say No Game cant go without its soundtrack same with a Gundam❤
You even got G-Saviour !? DANG that's good !
wait that gundam exist
@@ninhnguyenhoai952 [ R E D A C T E D ] lol
G saviour no in anime
@@ninhnguyenhoai952 from what what remember G saviour is set just before events of F90 and F91 anyway noticed G saviour is pretty much gundam mk II with mix Alex and GP03 parts it Interesting the movie it self not so much most like wipe it from there minds
Unfortunately, there’s none from the build series
Now you just need to add Rising Freedom, Strike Freedom Type II, and Mighty Strike Freedom Gundam to complete the list up to date.
Did not know that Turn A's lines glowed when it first awoke. I don't think they did that again in the show. Very mysterious.
Gundam Wing #1 Always a good watch! Excellent storyline, music and the action is second to none!
39:07 I love the barbatos line. Its the one gundam I cherished the most
Its a wild time capsule watching the different animation dynamics thru the time periods
Always loved the Atlas Gundam, just that soundtrack in the background while it boosts into the sky and splits a ship in half is just so sick
I still don't understand why the "suit up" sequence in Gundam G has to be painful?
Because its latex, that stuff feels horrible on bare skin
In order to achieve the maximum level of motion captioning and virtual monitoring, manufactured in microscopic level, the glue-like pilot suit are designed to be ultra-tightly grip onto users’ body, which will cause tremendous pain only material artists with excellent body conditions can handle. Plus, these suit can simulate the damages of their mobile fighters to their corresponded body parts.
I just love Unicorn (the music score perfectly fitting the Beast of Possibility theme) and Barbatos brutal and cold entry
Freedom, 00 and Aerial’s first launches are prob my fave of all time but sooo many of the gundam entrances were memorable ones
I saw the time of the vid and went "It inlcuded the WHOLE sequence didn't it?😂
man, my first gundam series I watch was mobile suit gundam 00, I was like 6 at that time watching it on tv, the nostalgia
Thanks! Enjoyed it! Freakin Heero flexed so hard getting to a Gundam the most difficult way at Endless Waltz 16:25 Also, I realised Stargazer is probably the only Gundam didn't just wake up and goes to war - "For science!" haha
The SEED ones hit very hard. Gotta love Kira. Also Stargazer for one of my favorite "shorts".
26:44 next-gen gundam running on HTML and having mouse-hover GIF animations will never cease to amuse me.
thank you for including g-saviour, truly the most canonical entry in the entire franchise
Gundam series music is just absolute *chef's kiss* Last Impression is such a banger
Wing Gundam kicks off the multiple shots per shot style of blowing things up trope
Strike Freedom launch is my favorite. I remember first time seeing the upgraded full burst beam spam as a kid and I waited 11 years after that before finally getting a good 1/144 scale model of the full burst mode
This makes me feel old
I know it wasn't a main Gundam but Death Scythe (Hell Version) had an awesome first scene
That was some amazing outro gundams sheesh *frostbites on my skin...*
Nice
GOD GUNDAM always in my heart !
Shining Gundam was my favorite by far. I loved both sub and dub as well!
gundam seed's animation is something else
That true
It was a product of its time and it was still pretty good.
From the series that i have fully watched i would say Strike freedom (original OST) and barbatos first launches are my favorates.
These scenes brings back memories😢
Unicorns first lauch goes so hard. Unicorn is what got me into mecha, so it holds a special place in my heart.
I dont really know anything about Gundam but i really enjoy building the models, i bought my first perfect grade yesterday and im enjoying seeing rx-78-2 on screen, its giving me some new ideas for posing
Damn what a nice youtube mini
Watching Gundam SEED team wrecking their brains to come up with the most senseless acronym for GUNDAM is the funniest thing 🤣😂😭 "General Unilateral Neuro-Link Dispersive Autonomic Maneuver" "Gunnery United Nuclear-Duetrion Advanced Maneuver" "Generation Unsubdued Nuclear Drive Assault Module"
G , wing , destiny and 00 qt has the best story and gundam out there. Period. Especially the 00 makes my hair stand up.
Double 00 and Setsuna F seiei Heavenly match
I love this
Contrary to popular belief... I adore G Gundam. Burning/God Gundam stuck with me.
My favorite is the exia's first appearance, it's the only one where we dont know anything yet, so mysterious, and the fall is so cool
ENDLESS WALTZ = GOAT
Wing zero from endless waltz is still the most badass intro
I was not expecting that ending, but it was great!
Camille bidan she is so pretty😅
Can't get more hype than that Strike Freedom launch. Lazors peeew!! 😂
Tbh Unicorn’s was my most favorite. Perfect build up, epic hopeful song n immersive scenario
Endles Waltz showing what a proper mecha boot up should look like.
This is my first time seeing the g saviour lol
Just gotta say, the double zeta's transformation sequence is one of the cleanest ever.
00s debut was epic.
Unicorn is my all time fav Gundam
