I used to watch gundam wing as a kid and have recently watched 00.
Looking to get into some more because who doesn't like big stompy mechs but I'll be real i find a lot of gundam heavy going If there is too much of what i would term "pathological pacifism".
If when faced with an existential threat to your existence and your first reaction is still to cry like a bitch about the morality of taking up arms then frankly you deserve what's coming. Looking at you Sanji Crossroads.
Anyone willing give me a list of Gundam recommendations with that point in mins?
08th MS Team is a classic if you want Universal Century, small unit mobile suit combat in Vietnam. Gundam Thunderbolt offers a newer side-story look for Universal Century. I've always loved Gundam Wing & Endless Waltz, but if ihad to choose a non-UC ... mmm you could try the Mercenary Kids of Iron Blooded Orphans. However Gundam Wing remains the nest non-UC imho.
On a side tangent - want a kino space anime with great combat & story, check out Outlaw Star.
I second 8th MS Team. IMO the most realistic representation of what actual mecha combat would be like to date.
