Looks like it might not be going up on GundamInfo, All the Anime in the UK just announced they have the streaming rights here, so there's a good chance another company took the US rights.

I also don't understand all the posts about the show being hard to follow. Have I simply watched so much Gundam (not to mention all that other stuff) I am fluent in Tomino now?

Could be, I didn't have much problem following what was going on. Compared to Brain Powered it practically had Speedwagon explaining what was happening at all times.

I'm in the UK, but alltheanime is telling me I can't watch on their site because of the video's privacy settings. I need to pay to see it on Vimeo, is that right? I thought I could see the first couple free? Disabling AdBlock didn't help.

SD stream should be free, according to their FB page they were running into problems with Vimeo's regional settings.

All anime not meant for kids airs at stupid times of the night. I think this is the first Gundam series that has though, though I could be wrong.

Man, and I got dogpilled for liking The Irregular At Magic High School. So far G-Reco has been a lot worse then that was at the same point.

Gonna turn out everyone is on Equilibrium style drugs and that's why no-one reacts to anything except with mild interest, just you wait and see.

Where are we suddenly getting 'Tomino is well known for writing terrible female characters' from anyway? The only decent female characters in any Gundam series are in the ones written by him, at worst he has some odd ideas regarding women and motherhood, at least around Victory time.

Wispy beam sabres are the best beam sabres. They just look more deadly somehow.

For some reason people really seem to want Tomino to be a crochety old man hurling sideswipes at everything Gundam that he didn't have a hand in.

Jesus, according to the tech fluff, the Elf series have Degeneracy Reactors which are what allow for their beam scattering bullshit. That's crazy.

Does that mean they're powered by the same thing as the Gunbuster. :stare:

That seems like a reason for G-Reco to tell more, not less.

It gives you tons of information, almost too much, just not what you think you need to know.

1) Watch Turn A
2) You're a massive piece of poo poo for thinking 0080 is anything other than the worst UC gundam produced. It's atrocious and awful and you should feel bad for liking it. It also makes me think you haven't watched much Gundam if you like it so expand your horizons.

Reco-G has been massively boring to me. It is not as bad as bad Gundam (0080, Seed Destiny), but it's not even close to mediocre Gundam offerings in my book. Coming from Tomino I'm honestly disappointed, this show has been really subpar. The storyline has been kinda hamfisted from start to finish, and I haven't felt like they knew what they wanted to do with it the entire time. Just really underwhelming.

I'm going to watch Zeta after this is done with a friend so I can wash that taste from my mouth.

It's happened before but that was ridiculously hyperbolic (and arsehole-ish) even for 0083.

I haven't watched all the animes from the past 13 years. I try, but occasionally I do need to take breaks to sleep or to have my bedpan changed and to be turned so I don't get bedsores.

There's a statute of limitations on spoilers unless you think we need to talk about every show that ever aired using spoiler tags?
