Upfront: the character animation is jank and I have no clue why that was considered acceptable given the overall effort that went into making things look pretty.

I went in with cautious optimism, because it's Netflix and they have a habit of butchering things. Not the case this time. It's 100% a Gundam show, alt-UC or no. My spouse was reluctant to start it tonight because she was beat after work and wasn't sure she was gonna be able to do more than one episode. After said one episode: "I'm awake." And so we finished it.

And now I want all those Zaku kits. Damn.

Same feeling I had. Was a little off put by how stiff the animation could be, particularly the faces. However I am a Warhammer 40k fan so I am used to it lol. The story, MS fights, everything was awesome. Also I got Gouf Custom representation. Genuinely Gouf Custom is my favorite mobile suit hands down and loved how it looked in this show. 10/10 just for having Gouf Custom
