zeta gundam is definitely the worst when it comes to misogyny*, but victory is a close second. zz is pretty good (letting 2.5 girls on the main pilot roster) and turn a is a perfect show and it’s handling of gender is no exception
*and my least favorite tomino show largely because of it (though i haven’t seen g-reco)
What are your thoughts on Wing and G? Those are the only ones I know much about because they were on Toonami. And i was curious how and expert feels, lol.
(I also know the overall plot and charachters of the UC stuff, since i played the hell out of Dynasty Warrions Gundam 2 lol)
i haven’t seen them yet! or i haven’t finished them at least. i’m watching gundam in release order except for when someone wants to watch something out of order with me (which happened for turn a, ibo, and the origin). so i’m currently watching g gundam and watched a few episodes of wing a while back
g gundam is fun so far but not really interesting. i watch an episode, i am somewhere between slightly and extremely uncomfortable with its portrayal of a given nationality, there’s a fight that’s decently enjoyable but not super interesting. i’m still early on so i have hope it’ll get more interesting but so far it’s gonna be one of my least favorites just because it’s not great at the stuff i like gundam for and it’s got enough problems (animation isn’t spectacular, racism sometimes, characters don’t have that much going on so far) that make it hard for me to really enjoy the spectacle of it all. but like, it’s totally fine you know? i’m not really likely to quit it anytime soon, i’m just not particularly invested in seeing what comes next
wing is peak melodrama from what i remember, which rules. i’m a big fan of all that stuff. but my memories of the first couple episodes are fuzzy and all my later knowledge comes from linkin park amvs so i can’t get much more specific than that

The misogyny is gone in G-reco, but what replaces it is George Lucas-style Prequel Star Wars incomprehensibility.
well i can probably deal with that, i mostly enjoyed victory gundam when it wasn’t being super gross about gender
