Favorite moment was Shinn’s game controller moment when he said he lost cause he was in Justice. Now that he has Destiny, he was going to wreck everyone.
I watched the movie with a friend and it was our second favorite moment (after kira getting beaten) the moment he said that we both said "skill issue huh " and we have a hard time not laughing too loud in the movie theater
To be fair, when he was in the Impulse, he's swapping Silhouettes on the fly mid-combat, while Destiny's configuration has all its equipment tailor-made for him. Immortal Justice just doesn't seem to suit his very aggressive style. And the Black Knights seem to forget Shinn soloed whole squads of Destroys with only the Legend as backup during the later half of Destiny.
Interesting bit of trivia concerning the evil Kira plot. One of the drafts for the movies plot had Kira fighting TWENTY clones of himself. FUCKING TWENTY!!!
-I laughed hard when Shin got beat tf just by trying to butt in kira vs athrun -Athrun showing his internet history to shura was funny asf -Multiple lacus butt shots - Shinn's pro gamer moment I can't with this movie. It's so funny asf. But fights were cool. Sometimes hard to follow but still really cool. 😂😂😂
tbh a bunch of rich kids from high ranking government and military officials becoming presidents and world leaders as a friend group is pretty realistic. nepo babies essentially
@@Myuutantobasuta I mean given the fact the amount of bullshit that they pulled throughout seed and destiny that probably only way they could explain how they were all allowed them to live after the war and get pardons. I mean yzak literally tried for warcrimes against killing a civilian space craft. Dearka was tried for desertion. Lacus was tried for treason for giving the an alliance pilot at the time an entire highly secret gundam, Stole an entire space ship and fought against zaft military twice. Having grouped name after you called the clyne faction really helps you get away with attacking your own nation army twice and stealing top secret military equipment with no long standing repercussions.
The reason they had to "steal" back the ship was because COMPS was suspended indefinitely at this point. When Konoe was ordered to return to base which was ORB. Meaning the ship originally belonged to ORB. Hijacking the ship would absolve ORB responsibility as being a perpetrator of instigating anything against foundation. This is why when the ship was being taken ORB sent out an alert to Zaft And Earth federation that the ship was being hijacked. Obviously foundation see saw through the rouse but this does give ORB a legit reason deflect any blame onto them.
@@Myuutantobasutaexcept Arthur poor dude is lost as fuck, just like the day his captain abandon her child to him. The dude even lost his XO position too.
I was so confused about that! I was thinking she either cloned herself and transferred her brain into the clone's brain somehow or she used some sort of reverse aging serum like something out of detective conan! But whatever the reason for what it is or why she did it in the first place, it's just comes off as completely creepy and disturbing to me!
I loved the movie. It was so much fun and it made me like the characters again. It was peak Cosmic Era. Funny story involving my viewing of the film in theatres: I bought a ticket to go see the Sub because everyone I knew who was going didn't want to see the Dub. When we were seated (theatre was packed), everyone was confused because the movie was dubbed. Turns out the theatre screwed up in the system and got the Sub and Dub mixed. Most people left to go see the Sub in the room next door, including all my friends, while I stayed to watch the Dub. Only major complaint: How the Dub pronounced Lacus' name. It's now an ongoing joke amongst my friends, along with the indecent thoughts XD Side note: After SEED Freedom was out, the prices for ZGok kits went up in price because people wanted it. Little did they know that Athrun's ZGok is getting an HG released later this year.
He attempted a serious voice acting career 20 years ago but I think the only shows that hired him were Gundam seed destiny, and some sort of baby show, so he gave up, but his character is in this movie so they requested he come out of retirement
you know the big part I liked about the movie was the plot that was going for the plot of lacus and Kira’s and their relationship where It’s being challeng for each of them. Lacus; has a tough duty to make a choice as a leader knowing that to her feelings, this isn’t what she was like and that’s because she is being manipulated but not knowing how and how she noticed how orphee The brave Warrior Is getting real charmed with her. Kira; trying to keep fighting to end the war but has doubts on how he’s handling it and it gets worse when he overhears how someone like orphee and his team saying that They’ll be able to end this war In a perfect conclusion but also kira thinks is orphee really the type of person that could give lacus something that he couldn’t or orphee tells him of how could he help Lacus or be with her with the blood of his enemies; which I got admit almost like how this was for the story.
But you know something that part about you saying about orphee doing the sexual assault to lacus actually to me actually thought he would just kiss her and then almost does it but he didn’t proving that no matter what happens to her She’ll still have her heart for Kira.
FYI, the kid that was with Cagalli in ORB before she left in the Strike Rouge with the Cavalier Dome Flight Unit was the pilot of the Dreadnought Gundam, the predecessor of the Providence Gundam.
Love the movie. One where I agree with the MAL scores. I gave the movie 8.5/10 and MAL gave it 7.94/10 Close enough. I also agree because I rank it higher with 00 Awakening(MAL 7.32) and Narrative (MAL 6.54) 00 movie ruined the main story for me while Freedom fixed my problems in Destiny so, all in all it was a pretty awesome movie. Glad it was very successful as a gundam movie. I also watched it three times. I guess I contributed lmao
I like how Shura, the black knight freaked out by sex and genetically designed only to fight was more successful at seduction than the one genetically designed to score with Lacus.
According to the novelization, Aura while makingbthe Accords was also researching a drug that could reverse a0g9ng and when medel col9ny got wrecked an accident happened thst soKed her in the stuff reverting her body to its child state
I can agree, I wasn't a big fan of Seed, or general most AU Gundams. I'm mainly a Tomino Gundam fan. But I enjoyed this a lot. But then, I got to see it in theatre's which makes it my first Gundam movie. It's basically if the rest of Zeta, the rest of Chars Counterattack and the entirety of Cross Ange were merged into one big movie. As with the Shinn thing. I found it to be a Cabin in the Woods Stoner type situation were his potential level of anger, emo unhingnedness is a 'jokes on you, my emo always is directed at the next fucker I wanna kill no matter what' They also forgot the Destiny is perfect for going apeshit.
Basically all the suits fits their performance in VS games, SF is always an AOE specialized gundam who focuses on range, gets overpowered quickly if you press it, Destiny ape over anything that underestimate it, and Justiny a 1v1 champ.
The animation and fight scenes are great but Lacus's origin and the main antagonist ( whats with fukuda and blonde antagonist ) killed this movie for me. The origin of Lacus give me the impression that she has been unintentionally manipulating everyone around her with her accord ability, meanwhile the main antagonist Orphee are basically just a 2024/lesser version of Embryo from Cross Ange, both are men-child with superior complex, both hate the heroine's love interest ( Tusk/Kira ) and deem them worthless/failure ( Fun fact : Tusk/Kira look exactly the same )
I Don't think she's been manipulating everybody, but the Accord thing does explain the couple of times in OG SEED, Lacus Overpowered Ace Pilots with her ship and whatever. Oh shit you're 100% Right about the Embryo thing. Honestly I thought he was going to be another Rau Clone, He was immediately sus.
@@Myuutantobasuta I meant it ruined the movie for me because in GSD Lacus was barely able to pilot Infitine Justice but now because she suddenly a accord in this movie, she can pilot Proud Defender and use multi-lock system way better than Kira, I understand Accords are superior than ultimate coordinator in certain way but the abilites she shown in the final battle make zero sense to me. With the antagonists we have in this movie, I am starting to appreciate Gilbert as a character, he is cunning and manipulative but have a very high level of self-control, he was very calm even after been defeated by kira while betrayed by Rey shortly afterward, even though his methods and destiny plan are questionable and will eliminate anyone that stand against him but he does not seem to be racist against the natural, Unlike Orphee/Aura/Black knights that has superior complex with child-like behavior when situation are not in fav to them. Not to mention the existent of Accord kind of undermine characters like Rau and Rey as both of them hate Kira for been ultimate coordinator even though Accord in theory are better, hopefully the sunrise/bandai will fix this plothole in the future. Sorry about the rant.
It feels like a season's worth of story compressed into a zip file and labeled movie treatment. It needed space to breathe and get into detail everything going on, because this film SPEEDRAN most everything. The tonal shifts were enough for me to sue for whiplash.
It's hinted at that the tower countries did not trust compass having the power of the destiny and strike freedom. The Justice is MIA since Arthun is doing his own thing in the shadows. Orb being neutral offers to take and I guess keep the gundams as a sign of neutrality. So low key compass gets the OG justice and The rising freedom a version of the freedom they got from temu. This also Lind hurt Kira as it was also hinged at an action done by Lacus and he seemed to be a sore spot for him. Without the freedom it feels like his sword has been taken and he's once again powerless.
@@Myuutantobasuta the dead whale has been in SEED since day one, its a corpse of a being they found and it basically became a symbol of what Coordinator is. genetic manipulation the sht out of humans
Shinn unironically was mvp of the final battle, literally outclassed kira, arthrun and lacus. Kira and Arthrun unironically no longer the goat of piloting.
If you really think about it, Compass is pretty much the Preventers of Gundam Wing in the Cosmic Era.... just with more gundams and a battleship of their own. 19:08 - Actually, that's Prayer Reverie and he's.... Mu's clone so definitely not Rau or Rey who was cloned from Al da Flaga or Mu's dad. Also, funny story, but Prayer himself had a clone...carbon human and he was already killed in CE 74 after battling Lowe and Gai. 20:51 - I have to admit. I loled at seeing both Athrun and Cagalli do Dandy thing from New Game. It actually makes me think if they did watch it along with Kira and the others or just the animators for laughs.
@@Myuutantobasuta I'm not sure about the movie novel. I heard it is a retelling of the movie with a lot of the rushed over parts filled in and had more details on what was going on so you are less confused. The moonlight Valkyrie is about Shin, Luminaria, Agnes, and Rey's life when they are still in military school. It seems like Ages does not specifically go for BF of other girls. She likes guys that are of high status since she has this mentality that only high ranking like people in FAITH or Kira are the ones that fits her standing. She feels proud that she was one of the ones that survived the last war, but that was only because her skill are a little above average, but nothing compared to ace pilots like Shin, Kira or Mu. She got the tittle of moonlight Valkyrie for her good looks and excellent personal performance at the academy. She was teamed up with Shin at the time so her team grade was pretty low because of Shin, that is why she seem to hate him even though he is part of FAITH in the movie. There was also a story of how Agnes had a BF that told her that he always wanted to pilot the Freedom once in his life so she used her connections to have her and him deliver machines to Kira and the others. She was in the justice I believe and the BF was in the Freedom. It turns out the BF was a spy and he took the freedom and gave all the information on it to presumably Foundation and that is how Orpheas got that White and Gold mobile suit. It was based off the freedom that they stole. I believe that is the most important information that I know.
@@Myuutantobasuta another detail is why Lacus sees kira and Orpheus from each other sometimes. It is said the Kira actually had some modifications made with Orpheus's DNA so Kira is kind of in the same position as Orpheus just without accord powers so that is why he is a complete and ultimate coordinator.
my understanding of it from the movie is it just meant Coordinators + Super Powers and most of the super powers were just Telepathy, vs Kira, a Coordinater with No Super Powers but Maxed All Stats.
@@Myuutantobasuta so basically if Kira and Lacus had a kid they'll be Mega Coordinators, Max stat with super powers. Yeah, Orphee didn't stand a chance logically speaking in terms of genetics.
Should this be classified as ecchi? That said, this theme highlights the current state of Japan and America mindset in masculinity and femininity - Dysfunctional
I'm gonna bet we won't get a ton of the suits in GB4, I'd say the best odds are for the Final Strike Freedom, Otherwise I kinda think Bandai will get greedy and either not include them or hold them back as Paid DLC.
In Seed Destiny, if I was in Shin's position, if all I constantly hear are mind controlling speech like he was from his comrade, Rey, and chairman Durandal, in my confused state, I think I would become like him, too.
I belive the advantage of the movie is the lenght, both seed series are very streched out for the 50 episodes but not much happens, So going to the point helps the plot/story, Characters that sucked still suck tho
IMO this movie will actually be better served as a 1 cour anime, i think they kinda moves from one plot to another too quickly like Usage of nukes and lazers of mass destruction, no gap between conflict per se. those empty moments are where character developments actually happen in the original SEED and Destiny
For me GSF is not a good movie and is more nostalgia. The story is just not interesting and too complex imo, also stuff are done way too easy (like they have 3 gundams laying around just in case? Also where was athrun the whole time and how does black Knights know him? Nothing is explained about this and so much more are just there and we need to accept that, furthermore stuff are changed from the previous 2 seasons in a bad way, example: Kira was always this go to guy, who is cool and knows what to do, now he was so fucking child etc. Ps. How did athrun went into his justice gundam during that fight????
Ehhh I’m mixed on it it’s definitely a tonal departure from the original seed stories but I would say most of the characters are acting in line with their history despite the comedy slant. Ps. The Justice Gundam was inside the Z’gok but gunpla nerds for the past year have been pulling their hair out trying to figure out the engineering of how it fit inside there.
This is just a propaganda for japanese to have family hahahaha jokes aside I'm happy to see my boi kira athrun and shin. Damn I really like the 👊 fight and gamer move athrun full of, mu is a lucky bastard
Best way I can summarize why the rising freedom and immortal? Justice fell underpowered compared to the strike. Freedom of the infinite Justice one due to regulation. They could not be in Gemma cancer or equipped, so they could not be nuclear-powered like the freedom in the Justice and 2, probably other regulations. Aside from the engine or cancel or think since they were now not random. You know, non soldiers like they weren't seeing destiny.Compass wasn't officially recognized world military so they had to abide by various treaties.They probably had to tone down the power of the thermal subforces due to international treaties
@Myuutantobasuta It wasn't mentioned in the movie but if you pay attention to the Acronym, at the beginning of the movie, further rising freedom. It doesn't have the nuclear drive acronym. Like the strike freedom does it has a different o? S acronym and since compass is an official world military kind of like the u. N. It probably has to abide by treaties if you're applying real world logic to it. And I believe in seed destiny. It was mentioned that after the end of the war inseed in jammer, cancel or equipment mobile suits were considered illegal.
I thought it was really bad. One of reason why I liked seed was cause the more serious tone to the show. The movie was more a comedic/fan service fiesta. The story was horrible and nothing made sense. First off why can they read peoples mind like hello? makes no sense.... why is the mom so young is she a clone or something?? AND ALL THE TALK ABOUT LOVE omg.... wow like this movie was made for little girls. The people who came to watch in the movie was laughing cause of how stupid the movie was lmao. The only good points are the actions were decent... the dubbed version didnt get the old cast from the original dub so that was terrible. The final fight scene with lacus in a doggy style in that suit and combining with the freedom fucking in space looking so cringe, I alpmost couldnt handle it. Everything cool or serious about the original series was completely gone. Terrible plot even for seed standards. AND WHY is there a character that wants to be everyones girlfriend? like what kind plot line or character is this, its so stupid lmao...
The movie not even about sex.. .omg ... that such an interesting way to look at it .. no .. it's about the foundation wanting to continue the ....destiny plan and wanting the world.. to be full of people who's genetics are decided for who they are their own destiny predetermined at birth. So basically a world full of coordinators and to kill all the naturals. So basically the whole conflict of the entire series.. They basically just wanna rule over everything.. ofc kira and the others won't let them.. but alot of stuff happens in this movie that goes from small scale to over the top. .I had so much fun watching it I need to watch it a second time just to process everything that happened.
Athrun just invented a skill to absolutely destroy opponents who can read minds, constantly thinking about intimacy moments while fighting to get the opponent into a whole lot of trouble 🤣🤣🤣
