Thoughts on Gundam AGE
May. 21st, 2012 05:11 pmHello Monday.
On MAL, even though I was hesitant, I typed up my view on GUNDAM AGE after reading some discussions on the forums. I asked myself, "what do I really think of the show??" Despite having difficulty in expressing myself, and little confidence, I went along with the review. I don't do reviews because explaining my jumbled thoughts in words often lead me to embarrassment. It was even tougher to attempt making a review spoiler-free when I'm caught up. And are my thoughts truly real?
For now, I would give it a 6 out of 10. So that's kind of like a 3 out of 5. In letters, that'd be like a C. To me, it's an average show. I don't think it wows me, nor does it give me a lot of emotions. A few, but not a lot.
The main point of AGE is: "A story than spans 3 generations for 100 years." (100年に渡る3世代の物語)
So, what do you think?

I know one thing, I think it's really lame how they use the veteran voice overs. I swear Yamaguchi Kappei was in the show for like ... 10 seconds. And I think Saiga Mitsuki was a random kid for one or two episodes. Romi Paku...then there Yusa Koji, Sakaguchi Daisuke (where IS MAX?!?!), etc. Also, Itoh Kentarou! WASTED! Morita Masakazu is in it too but not much. So is Madono Mitsuaki but he seems cool.
VID PICK!
