Since we're being bored over waiting for a new Gundam T.V. series coming out, Check Out these things My playlist: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-eWzYy7OSPnQ.html If you are also looking for something fun, here's a Sunrise Compilation video: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-v0GwYek2QHI.html
Carlos reyes i love Wing for the nostalgia since it was my 1st Gundam show, but Wing Zero, Strike Freedom and some other gundams are crossing the line back into super robot, the very genre Gundam set out to differentiate itself from in the 1st place by pioneering the real robot genre.
That is why i fell in love with IBO. Its a realistically fresh take on the genre. I also love their choice to not incorporate beam weapons in the story as giving gundam energy weapons can turn most fight scene into cheap flashy light show too fast. Not to mention that since IBO uses blunt weapons, its easier to visualize all the pain and suffering a pilot can experience in these series, not that it lacks any visualisation most dying pilots in this show. XD
@@RamenBoi Probably because he's been stripped for parts and lacks proper maintenance. I wonder if Calamity War Babatos would have been any stronger...
Epyon always seems to get kicked around as worthless,I liked it simply because it didn't Beam Cannons or Machine Guns or Extension Arms,even the Heat Rod had a limited range it was a close quarters/melee range mobile suit.
I'm with you on Exia. In the last battle when Exia returned in full form I teared up. Then I went and bought myself an Exia Gundam Kit with light up a GN Drive.
I would place Unicorn in top 3 because of the fact that its full psychoframe stopped a colony laser, and it travelled through time, basically made its pilot transcend the human form and then return. 00 QAN (T) also belongs for essentially the same reasons. Aside from the Turn A, those two are the most powerful Gundams ever.
RX-78-2 always guys, always will be the #1 in a top ten gundam list and it's simple because it's the first Gundam, not only the idea of "real mecha" serie, not only eliminate the gigantor idea from mechas and their "brother/father image" of the mecha. It was so simple at that moment "The mecha it's a warmachine, simple as that", tha'ts the reason why Gundams are so popular since 1979.
I always loved the original because it had what it needed and nothing more. A heavy weapon, check. A beam rifle that could hit targets at a distance, check. A shield to block stuff with, check. And beam sabers for melee, check. It wasn't super flashy with over the top fire power but if Amuro needed something done the Gundam had the tools for the job.
I honestly don't have any issues with this list... Except one. Kira is NOT Kira "Jesus" Yamato, it just Kira Yamato. People just keep referring to him as Jesus because his character has so much plot armor he could probably tank a shot from the Moon Light Butterfly and then still tank the point-blank nuclear explosion of his Freedom Gundam and live. HOW CAN ANY "HUMAN" TANK A NUCLEAR EXPLOSION THAT OCCURS LITERALLY 10 FEET FROM YOU AND NOT BE KILLED! Also, the Strike Freedom uses the broken Voiture Lumiere propulsion system, that system can NEVER work the way it is described.
Wow........some Gundam "fans" are arrogant and pretentious. At least the watchmojo people actually watched the series this time around and voiced their own opinion. Yeah yeah... Seed,Wing, and 00 are on the list but you know what? Without either of those additions Gundam would not survive to 2017. I may be a UC fan but at the end of the day each piece of the Gundam franchise has it's own merits lol even G Savior and G Gundam. So come on open minded Gundam fans voice your own positive opinions to make the fandom look better because I see too many butt hurt little kids making dumb I hate this and I hate that comments here. If you got your own top 10 opinion then make your own video to promote the franchise.
libertygundam80 don’t blame Shinn, blame the writers for making his character that way and not changing him throughout the series. Honestly the characters from Seed have more focus and development than the ones from Seed Destiny.
Wind Knight. Agree it could have been good with the big emphasis on "could have" they needed better writers not only that it didn't help seed born the kira cult literally threaten to bring back kira or watch rating drops which is why the astray mangas are soooooo good cause you know it has actual paceing and good story which break my bloody heart that anime series could have been that good .also going to say it blunt i like the original freedom and justice .they look like they supposed to experiential machine that has literally all zeon tech before dragons rail caynon from those walking ms which name I forgot the backpack of the dinn and even sword bomerangs and there sweet as ms transport. heck even then I like the infinite justice I just stand the strike freedom anymore which a little of the design but must be the color dear lord after rewatching destiny I can said that metalic does not go well with that color that it has I could nickpick that you can dissect the Ms and literal seen other ms from other series like a kit bash don't care you get those kind of things after being so old. But I wish they made at least more real robot than super robot. Which show that seed destiny was bad from lazyness, bad writers that sadly often pressure and the god dang toxic kira cult base. I seen the internet gundam wars of 2000's of u.c fans and the kira cult fans it something I never want to see again .fun fact the shin destiny gundam was actualy scrap ms design when there where designing kira 2 Ms after losing the strike it the reason some destiny have some similarities to the freedom but what it was if you look a the stealth design it original look. it's a bloody amped up perfect strike no serious put the perfect strike the scraped image of the perfect strike and the destiny together and you can see literally the strike gundam under all the equipment it also the reason why the Destiny anti ship sword was complete garbage than the sword impulses superior design the" more you know huh"
The fact that this video used the original Seed Destiny Strike freedom launch scene with Vestige soundtrack instead of the remastered, made this Top 10 worth watching
Adrian Javellana Especially since it's more of an all-round Gundam and it doesn't really have a special gimmick/Ace-In-The-Hole besides its Blue Flame mode which would kill Mika if he used it for too long
My favorite is still the X-20A Strike Freedom and Kira as the Pilot. Perfect duality between don't wanting to fight and having the power to finish of everything in the blink of an eye
Great list! Obviously my personal top 10 are slightly different, but all in all, those are very worthy and awesome Gundams, and I definitely agree that nothing other then dear old rx78 can take the number 1 spot :)
lsrrr something (goes into golden mode) "this hand of mine glows with awesome POWER! It's burning grip is telling me to defeat you!" *"Take this! My love, my anger and ALL OF MY SORROW! SHINING FINGER SWORD!!!*
Jetfire48 Dude, this list is based on most popular and iconic. Not strongest. If it were strongest, Turn A and 00 Qan[T] would take the top 2 spots no contest.
Cordude And normally I'd agree with you on that. But #Prime92 personally pointed this video out to me, and said 'it is good'. So, I held my nose and dove in... and, truthfully, I was not disappointed this time. They actually took the time to do some damn _research_ and they listened to the feedback from the last list. The fact they said things like 'the Wing ZERO has more personallity that its pilot' and mentioned the infamous Kira Yamato's -fan- cultist nickname proves this.
Why the eff do so many like the stupid EW version of Wing Zero? The wings are impractical and it loses its shield that the normal version had in the series. The series version LOOKS like a Gundam. The movie version looks like it belongs in Evangelion or Code Geass or some bullshit like that.
Someone finally appreciates gundam seed destiny and IBO . The strike freedom and barbatos are always neglected on such lists so i'm glad to have seen them here . Nice man
My two top favourite would be the wing gundam and the gx divider. As for terms of raw destructive power I'd say the Double X, Wing Zero, 00-Raiser and is it the GP-01 or 02 that fires nukes.
I like how Gundam 00 brought RX-78 as the first Mobile suit to ever use a GN Drive and gotta love how they renamed it Gundam 0, pity the antagonist piloted it to get destroyed by Gundam Exia
3:18 A common and easy-to-miss error: the series is correctly titled _Mobile _*_Fighter_*_ G Gundam._ While _they do have_ "mobile suits" in the series for actual warfare and national defense, the mecha from each country which is used specifically for the Gundam Fight competition (Cobra Gundam, Dragon Gundam, Shining Gundam, Mandala Gundam, John Bull Gundam, God Gundam, etc.) is called a "mobile fighter".
Then, first of all, good taste, I very much agree with you, but do you know about the Exia Avalanche? If not, look it up on the Gundam Wiki, it's from the Mobile Suit Gundam 00V manga. It's the Exia equipped with a high speed/high maneuverability armor pack called the "Avalanche" armor pack.
My personal fav is the Strike Freedom, and close 2nd is Barbatos. Would love to see the RX-78 Gundam in a more modernized animation style like the latest Gundam-series are, but since i only started watching the Gundam franchise at SEED, i prefer the modern style.
Better and is was right with the no 1 , the RX-78-2 IS THE BEST GUNDAM , with out it there will be no other gundam in this list or in the entire time By the way does any 1 know the time of ep 6 "gundam the origin" release date ????
Jetfire48 This list (and the previous one) goes off how iconic and popular they are. And the original Rx782 is by far the most iconic Gundam and it will always be that way.
My favorite unit from G Gundam is the Devil Gundam, despite the fact that it's evil and decided to create what was essentially just a lobster shaped Mobile Armor for it's legs
No it can't. The Zero system only gives possible outcomes with the data it's currently collected. It wouldn't win every single time. Like if it fought a brand new Gundam. It would have no info on it, so the possible outcomes would simply be dependent on what the Zero system has learned from other battles. Anything new the opponent uses would be a surprise.
@@Prime92 the zero system in the wing zero is always active and it gathers data on the battlefield. It has been proven that it can adapt to changes in battle with no problems
I think Gundam Zabanya from Gundam 00 movie is worth mentioning since it has equal or more fire power with Strike Freedom. That's just me since I thought that the Gundams in the 00 movie are all powerful.
Without getting into too much detail, in the grand scheme of things the GP-03S Stamen really isn't that much of a stand-out Gundam-in-name. It has a common beam rifle, a common bazooka, -some Vulcan guns in the temples- a pair of common beam sabers, a compactable shield, and... well, that's it. In fact, other than an advancement of technology in only, like, _one year,_ the GP-03S isn't really all that different from what the original RX-78 offers except perhaps only its _lack_ of a Core Block System! It's nothing special _unless_ you add the brick-ish cargo carrier-with-a-big-gun Dendrobium Orchid to the mix, and _even then_ it loses its "Gundam" status (and thus position on this list) because at that point it's a "mobile armor" and not a "mobile suit". Strike Freedom can get away with being on this list because it _isn't incomplete_ if it's not attached to a METEOR Unit; the same goes for Exia (GN Arms Type-E), the RX-78 (G-Fighter), and Gundam Mk-II (G-Defensor).
Personally, I like Barbatos. The story. The sequence. And most especially the mysteriously of leading gundam, barbatos, that made from hundred year ago...
I personally like these Gundams for their special reasons: 1. The RX-78 (& RX-78-2) for being the icon of Gundam in its entirety 2. The Barbatos for its tenacity and unrivaled melee prowess (plus its upgrades) 3. The ZZ (& Zeta) for their packs (plus for being one of the first transforming Gundam I know of) 4. The Freedom (& Strike Freedom) for its high power and plethora of cannons (plus for getting more OP upgrades, even in the upcoming Freedom film) and 5. The Aerial for being the first all-new Gundam in the 2020s. Watchmojo, it'd be nice if you could create a top 20 Mobile Suit Gundams list given how far the series has come up to 2024 (Happy New Year to all!).
Jetfire48 I'm not really into huge suits like Psycho Gundam, Neo Zeong, Big Zam, etc... but I prefer any kind of beam spam to Seed/Seed Destiny stock footage
The thing is, in a duel, moonlight butterfly isn't that good, sure it's a super weapon but a quicker gundam can start destroying turn A before it can fire, not like regeneration is perfect either. Most powerful, turn A, but best overall, could be any of these really.
If this were uploaded in 2019, Jona Basta's Narrative Gundam (especially C Packs) from Mobile Suit Gundam Narrative would be the 4th Honorable Mention after Gundam Alex, and the intro of this video would say that this Redux was also to celebrate the 40th anniversary. This is just my opinion, tho.
Exia has nothing against the 00 Raiser which can teleport and exert massive amounts of power. The Full Armor Gundam of Thunderbolt should also be on this list. At least you added the Nu Gundam.
This is not a "most-powerful blue-colored Gundam ever" list, but rather a[nother] "most popular blue-colored Gundam according to Watch Mojo" list. _But to be fair,_ they at least fixed their mistakes from the previous _Gundam_ listing, _and_ show clear signs of actual _research_ this time. Debate the order on this list all you like, but give credit where credit is due, please.
Its their favorites, not the most powerful. I LOVE that they put the Original Gundam at number one and the RX-78 deserves it. Strike Freedom for me should've been 3 with the Wing Zero at 2. Sorry but the angel wing Gundam remains the most iconic gundam mobile suit in the series. And they also got rid of that dreadful Star Build Gundam. I liked Build Fighters but their mobile suit gunpla need a list of their own.
Femto That’s true, whenever you see a Gundam with angel wings you instantly think of the Wing series. It’s not as iconic or popular with the newer Gundam fans though.
Someone at mojo has a vendetta against Build fighters. Not one yet. An I know that it is a show about toys, but it doesn't change the fact that some of those Gundams look, fight, and perform amazingly. An really, aren't all Gundam shows just toy commercials in the end? Lightning Zeta Gundam from try, and Star build strike would have made a good addition to the list. Edit: I rewatched the video I was thinking of and it was the top 10 Gundam pilots that said no Build fighters. Still though, this list needs a mech from build fighters.
Honorable mentions: - Full Armor Thunderbolt - RX 79 (Ms 08th)* am i right about the number? 10. Wing 9. Barbatos 8. Strike series 7. Turn A 6. Unicorn 5. Exia 4. Nu Gundam 3. Zeta 2. MK II 1. RX 78-2
You took Burning/God Gundam OFF the list and put Turn A, Barbatos, the Mk II, AND the Strike series above Wing Zero? Sorry but...you're high. EXTREMELY high. Wow. -_-
Surprising that the ASW-G-08 Gundam Barbatos was #9 on the list, but very few scenes of it's final stage as Barbatos Lupus Rex: "the Demon King of Wolves" along with not showcasing more of Mikas' utter brutality beyond killing Crank Zent, a good scene to have used would be one of the following: Mikazuki vs. Cadal Kudal Mikazuki: "I'm enjoying this?" *Barbatos tosses a piece of shrapnel at Gusion* "Well, whatever." *Gusion dodges, only for Barbatos to latch onto Gusion's armor; sword in hand poised for a downward stab* "This one is good to die anyway. *Barbatos stabs through the gap in the "neck" of Gusions' armor plating: killing Kudal, cue the gory image of Kudal with the large Mobile Suit sword jammed through the cockpit and through his right side of his skull and body as the cabin fades to white* Mikazuki vs. Carta Issue Carta: "I am Carta Issue" Mikazuki: "I don't car who you are." *Mobile suits clash their weapons, only for Barbatos to push Carta's Graze backwards* "That doesn't change the fact that you're my enemy." *Barbatos punches Cartas' Graze to the ground* Tekkadans' Last Stand after the Dainsleif Team unleashed their bombardment, only for Gjallarhorn forces on the surface to witness that both Mikazuki and Akihiro survived and are slowly dying Mikazuki: "Hey, Barbatos. You don't want to stop yet, do you?" *Barbatos emits a haunting howl of a wolf as Mika gives an unhinged slasher smile* "Than let's do it then." *Barbatos charges at super speed, cut to the cockpit of an unwitting Gjallarhorn soldier to see the Ahab Wave signature of ASW-G-08 cross the gap into close proximity extremely fast, before Barbatos lunges at the Graze with a wolf's howl*
"Sir", actually. The Cult of Jesus Yamato is a very specific, very small and particularly ravenous group of _SEED/SEED Destiny_ fans. They claim that because Kira Yamato had three miraculous escapes from death (which would have annihilated any other competent character in either series), he is _literally_ immortal and hands-down thee very best MS pilot (and, by extension, thee very best character) _ever_ in the entire _Gundam_ franchise. The three miracles are as follows: *1* - the Aegis Gundam self-destructing at point-blank range while he was inside the breached/exposed cockpit of the Strike Gundam. The TV series never explains or shows how Kira miraculosly was transported to a PLANT, but it is described in the MSV _SEED Astray_ that the Junk Guild group just-so-happened to be in the area at the time and was covertly watching the fight, and took Kira to the PLANT. (Of course, if you don't read the MSV, then you don't know this!) *2* - _[I am soooo blanking on the second miracle right now, I'm sorry!]_ *3* - the explosion of the Freedom Gundam's nuclear reactor from the Impulse Gundam impaling it with its Anti-Ship Sword. NOTE: For _SEED Destiny Remastered, new animation was added_ which shows Kira hit the Neutron Jammer Canceller activation button a split second before the reactor was hit; thus preventing a nuclear explosion due to the mechanics of how NJCs work. However, this is highly contested by fans because a massive explosion still occurs, but the show's staff claim they added this moment because such an explosion is 'not nuclear' and thus explains how Kira survived the destruction of the Freedom Gundam _even while he was still seated inside of it._ (An example of Cultists at work; don't mind the enthusiasm of the voice- ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-EcWHKT8eH8s.html ) It is well known that both _Mobile Suit Gundam SEED_ and _Mobile Suit Gundam SEED Destiny_ (both acknowledged by Sunrise and Bandai as intentional remakes/rehashings of the original Universal Century series _0079, Z_ and _ZZ,_ respectively) were plagued with plot holes and bad writing behind-the-scenes. However, Cultists ignore these blatantly-obvious production flaws and instead use them as convenient excuses for their own arguments and case, to prove that Kira "Jesus" Yamato is- in their minds- the greatest MS pilot _ever._
EVA_Unit_4A People talk about Kira “Jesus” Yamato being immortal. Pfffft. They clearly haven’t seen our true lord Patrick Corlasour the Indestructible. Not even a main character and he never fucking dies. This man is the true immortal.
I was surprised to find God Gundam on this list because I feel like he's very underrated. Sunrise mixed two of my favorite things together: Gundam and martial arts and thus, G Gundam became my favorite Gundam series, and yes, I agree that some of the Gundam designs were plain stupid, like Zebra Gundam and Mermaid Gundam. But as soon as God Gundam appeared out of that huge capsule, I knew shit was going down. The plot was getting a lot better at that point too, not that the plot of the first half was bad. Anyways, here's my personal top ten (just Gundams): 1. God Gundam 2. Strike Freedom Gundam 3. 00 Raiser 4. Infinite Justice Gundam 5. 00 QanT 6. Gundam Astray Gold Frame Amatsu Mina 7. Gundam AGE-2 Normal/Gundam AGE-2 Dark Hound (tie) 8. Gundam Exia 9. Zeta Gundam Type 3A 10. RX-78-2 Gundam
I personally agree with you. Nothing beats the granddaddy of all Gundams ( this is only my opinion I'm literally sure that all of the Gundams in this list can destroy the RX-78-2) this should've been "iconic Gundams" than top 10 Gundams.
I agree. Debate the list itself all you want, but they fixed a lot here from the previous video list, and did actual _research_ for it this time around.
They should do research and only made he list worse. They should watch the anime itself, read the manga and then do the research and finally create this list. The Strike Freedom should be replaced with any other mobile suits placed lower on this list.
This list, it's three times faster-I mean better than the last! Much better choices and glad to see WatchMojo making references to shows cos they ACTUALLY WATCHED them.
GP-02 should have been on the list outright. Before the new OVA projectes in the UC timeline that thing was the gold standard of design for any Gundam not named the RX-78
in terms of Firepower and ability uniqueness... NOTHING will ever beat the *00-Quan[T]* Only the Quan[T] can open a wormhole and travel to anywhere in the Universe *ANYWHERE. IN. THE. UNIVERSE!!!!* Only the Quan[T] can make a pilot.... basically GOD!! *A FUCKING METALLOID GOD!!* nothing beats the Quan[T].. *NOTHING!* the thing is too OP!
3 years later, it gets bodied by the Wing Zero, which later proceeds to get destroyed by the Burning G. My man, if you were to compare specifics, the Quant would have it hard against other Universes, specially those not heavily focused on Laser/Beam tech.
ReduxEditor335 honestly as many times as he should have been dead you might as well call him Gundam Jesus almost because he can never die even if you stab him through the chest he will live which I think actually happened
Red Gundam Ranger Kira is hardly the first Gundam protagonist to survive his own MS exploding with him in it. That kind of plot armor is practically worn by nearly all Gundam pilots. I hardly see why Kira is any different.
ReduxEditor335 cuz its happened more than a few times like once ok 2 times yea fine 3 or more dude what the hell??? Which was the case with kira getting stabbed in the chest getting blown to hell on multiple occasions the guy has survived more stuff that previous pilots like gundam wings trowa who only blew up once
Like honestly, the fact that Barbatos came so low in this list made me sad but the back handed comment that its the most beautiful mech they’ve laid their eyes on (and it bloody should be, maybe apart from Exia though) just made me even sadder... Sure the originals can’t be beaten, the likes of which are Exia and Gundam RX-78 but if they’re going to make a list of the BEST Gundams in the Series at least consider the new and refreshed concept of a Gundam that has its weakness but can still pull through it. Without all the laser beams and Gundam Particles of course because Barbatos is a great example for that. I mean his last upgrade (Gundam Barbatos Lupus Rex) was amazing in my opinion. What other gundams can honestly be upgraded with Mobile Armor and still destroy a crap ton of Graze Mobile suits before being tired out?!? And the pilot too, sure he was bland at some points but thats what made him so perfect with barbatos especially with Orga at his side.. Even Ahkihiro’s Gundam should be on this list (the ASW-G-11 Gundam Gusion Rebake and its glorious uprades into full city mode), same with the ASW-G-64.. But i guess thats just an over kill with too much Iron blooded orphans.
Marrks, most Gundams have a defense against beam weaponry (I-Fields, GN fields, etc). Hell, the Ex-S can reflect beams off of itself. If you've ever seen Zeta, beam sabers were used more like blunt weapons against the MK-II Gundams rather than actual swords. Also, the Turn-A's Moonlight Butterfly turns Barbatos into sand.
