I saw something of Gundam at an anime club but for the life of me I can't remember what it was. all i remember is jungle and more waiting than fighting. Is there a list that could help find what I saw? I am curious to know. I remember more Macross than I do that but I hardly watch either one.

Sounds like it is probably Mobile Suit Gundam: The 08th MS Team.

Yea that was it. It was kinda boring probably not a good place to start with Gundam.

08th MS Team is honestly a bit sh!t and tremendously overrated. People love it because it's "realistic" while it has a scene of the main character dodging, on foot, a freakin' Zaku rifle a couple of feet away.

I think most of the people that like it are not Gundam fans. I sold my blu ray of it, which I almost never do.

If you haven’t seen Bandai’s 40th Anniversary “message for the fans” or whatever on YouTube, do check it out. I found it quite moving.

Sometimes when I preach about Gundam’s aggressively secular humanist message people just look confused and say “I just like the robots” and it leads me to wonder if I’m imagining it but this video has reassured me. The message of Gundam is “be the Newtype”.

Ah, the mobile app only shares the truncated URL. I never noticed that.

EDIT: OK, what was wrong with that attempt?

Long story short, saw a DVD of this for sale and then found one on yesasia for 30 plus shipping.
Don't know if I want it that badly but will watch on youtube.
This is an interesting one, I have some dollar store DVDs of these Korean anime films but didn't know of this one.

Goldwing 123 or Gold Wing 123.

Cobra, the series from the 80s. Entertaining enough, better than the movie imo.

IMO, COBRA T.V. stands right up there with SDF MACROSS as benchmark pinnacles of early-80's Anime,
besides being two of the best Anime of all time...

Post subject:  Re: what anime's have you guys been watching recently

Well at least that's one thing we agree on. Cobra is probably one of the only two anime I'd actually recommend to people without reservation.

I've always wondered about COBRA. I might have to check it out. there isn't any relation to GI Joe's cobra? I thought not but then you never know until you ask.

It’s Playboy meets MAD Magazine...R rated, in space. You’ll love it.

The animation of the TV series is very good and I do like Cobra but it’s rather thin. Comparing it to Macross is like...I don’t know. Cobra is basically Voltron with t**s. You get the same thing you want over and over and over again. You simply cannot tell the female sidekicks apart, they always die, everyone does, Cobra always lives. It’s very style over substance.

I’m more familiar with the manga, honestly...the art in that is also extremely good.
