Negative Positive
Title: An Epic, but Intolerable
Review: I am not thrashing Mobile Suit Gundam. I've been around it since I was a little kid, and am a big Gundam fan. However, the dub for this was TERRIBLE!!! For those of you hard-core anime fans who want the original series, I suggest one of two things: Buy this and associated DVDs and watch it in Japanese ONLY (w/ subs) or... Save your money and watch the bloody thing on Cartoon Network. If you still aren't satisfied, just pick up the movie trilogy. The dub is much more prepared in the movie version and the voice acting is more realistic, not the tweaked out voices you hear on TV. The English version of Mobile Suit Gundam was completely rushed. I'm giving it an extra star because all of the footage that is not in the movies is incredible. The scene in which Garma is "assasinated" doesn't come until the second or third DVD, but is very, very, very much more fulfilling. And I can't wait to see the Odessa campaign and the Battle of A Bau A Qou.
Is the review positive or negative?
