If you like Gundamn 00 prepare for everything you like to go to s*** in season 2, yeah I still mad Both of my friends that have watched it actually enjoyed season 2 a lot, save for one thing, so I'm still not sure how I'll feel about it.

IMO, Season 2 of Gundam 00 finished OK, but it was definitely quite a trip to the end....not in a good way.

I just really hated how all traces of ambiguity were taken out and it turned into goddamn 0079.

I've been thinking that's also one of the reasons why GSD was a disappointment, aside from Fukuda/Morosawa's incompetence. Seed was accepted by even some of the most die-hard UC fanatics because it was a reimagining of UC (specifically, MSG). With GSD, Sunrise/Bandai demanded more homages to UC (UC's mechas, Kira's Newtype flash, etc.) to pander to the UC fanbase.

Yeah, don't get me wrong, I love UC but let the shows that aren't UC stay that way.

One more thing I must disclose before I say what I came to say! I wonder if any of the yaoi fangirls have made a Quattro/Quatre slash-fic. Oh, of course they have.

Just got done watching Endless Waltz.
There were some things I didn't like, but overall, this was a fun movie and another good dose of Gundam Wing fun. Duo Maxwell got a lot of funny lines in, and I have to say that even though Quatre is my favorite Gundam Wing pilot, his joke about him was perfect.
Paraphrasing: "Leave Quatre alone long enough and he'll take the blame for anything. Sooner or later, he'll be saying that there is no oxygen in space because he isn't working hard enough to make it happen."

We don't need them anymore, and what could possibly go wrong! This is the most well thought out thing I've ever done! Also so far Mobile Suit Gundam 00 is proving to be a far more enjoyable experience that I ever thought it would be.

I just don't get why they wouldn't use the gundamium in the suits for something like a bridge, etc, that could use it. Or just fuse the joints together and let one of them serve as a statue.

Liked this quote from Easymodo (with my additions): "[Lunamaria] only jobbed against Triple H Athrun and against Djbril's shuttle. And let's face it - EVERYONE jobbed to Triple H Athrun except for Cena Kira." And another thing I noticed: Episode 39 of GSD (the episode where Kira officially steals the main character spot from Shinn) was broadcast in Japan on 16 July 2005, around the same time that Cena was in his megapush.
