Status: Complete (50 episodes + movie)
Premise: A group of highly skilled pilots flying in advanced mobile suits known as Gundams are on a mission to eradicate all war through armed intervention. This group known simply as "Celestial Being" is composed of people who have lost all that they cherish to war and now fight to stop it. By making an enemy of every side and being victorious they intend to present a unifying enemy for their opposition and eventually a universal peace.
Thoughts: Though not to the same level as Gundam Seed this is also a relatively good mecha that shows again why this franchise holds the title of king of mecha.
Prose: Excellent action, interesting if somewhat screwed up main characters, and gloriously well animated and voiced.
Cons: The main plot is rather far fetched and no one appears to realize it. Code Geass had basically the same idea but executed many times better than here.
-Notes: Fully dubbed excluding the movie. Might want to skip that movie IMHO it was rather poor and kind of ruined a perfectly good ending to the anime.
7/10 (How many screwed up nut cases does it take to screw in a light bulb?)
