there be just so many problem with this show and my mind be boggle a to where to start . well and i suppose the best place to start be the beginning . the story initially begin during one of the major battle from the previous show and mobile suit gundam seed . a young boy name shinn asuka and his family be catch in a crossfire between two mobile suit and one of them pilot by kira yamato and the protagonist from gundam seed . although shinn survives and his entire family be kill and leave shinn aghast . fast forward two year later and shinn have relocate to the plant and enlist in the zaft military . this show definitely have a lot of potential during the first twelve episode and which focus mainly on shinn and all the other new character . but then the writer decide to switch gear and bring back kira and the rest of the old cast from gundam seed and and they ultimately save the day . what be frustrate about that be kira have no struggle to speak of . yet in the last few episode of this show and the writer decide to make kira invincible in his late mobile suit and the climax be insufferably one side . overall and this show be a disgrace to the gundam franchise . yoshiyuki kill em all tomino and the instigator of gundam and be definitely the superior director and i would definitely recommend any of his show or movie over this lame series anytime . they do not call him kill em all tomino for nothing . no sir .
