Deleteit's racist I tell ya.... it's racist!
I DONT LIKE IT KIRA VS FUCKING SHINN"" KIRA LOST DID HE? PLS REMAKE IT" ITS VERY EPIC. HOW COME THAT FUCKIN STUPID SHINN WON AGAINST STRIKE FREEDOM GUNDAM.. THATS IMPOSSILBE CONFLICT DAMT IT""
DeleteThey needed to get rid of Freedom, to introduce Strike Freedom. It would have been fine if Kira had stayed with Freedom throughout the whole series but Justice was gone and the duo was incomplete. A old Freedom and New justice wouldn't work so they had them both be destroyed for the sake of a the duo. Why is the duo so important you ask? It is a marketing method to sell more models
DeleteReally?? but for me, I have rewatched these Gundam seed and destiny endlessly even right now. Though I like seed better but the destiny story made me feel it had to exist for a purpose.Tthe duo models too. I think its more meaningful as they add in more features to their new gundams: Strike Freedom and Infinite Justice when the characters have a clearer mind what they want to achieve from this second war. It feels like they are given new swords to execute their new will to do something about the chaotic world.
DeleteWell, I don't like it either, the first time I watched the episode where Kira lose to Shinn. The only part make me accept that he lost for real is Kira wasn't concentrating in the fight but thinking all ways to escape both for him and archangel. So okay lo..he lost. Well, it make it more sensible for him to only lose that way since He did not even Lose to Athrun when both of them fight in Seed where they going for real to kill each other, I meant he only "kind of lost when Athrun cannot keep him still but to resort own gundam explosion. Normally when I watched these anime shows, I only concentrate on the storyline and characters rather than " the marketing method" Every anime, movie etc exist for reasons right? If you keep looking at "marketing/ vendor making $ out of it" you won't be truly enjoy the show. I do have one Freedom from Seed. My friend pieced them up for me when he saw me so into the anime. Though I like the features Strike Freedom had, but I dun like the golden parts on it, feel the gundam look very "mature/ older the wiser feel"
Hmm one more part to comment, after Shinn won against Kira ,Freedom (not Strike Freedom pls), I was disappointed with how Athrun defended Kira in verbal. Maybe after he scolded him for killing Freedom he should mention something like : "Ya you won, you won against someone who is not concentrating in a fight with you, who is trying all his best to escape, who is trying to protect his friends and his sister in the ship, who is not doing any killing (expt destroyer gundam because it is killing everyone and going berserk) but disarmed his opponent pilot, isn't it the only method you used so you could win against him? You used the fact that he will never shoot pilot cockpit, to win against him. Kira is strong, he wins a fight or war by disarming instead of killing all his opponents, only he can pull that off. And you? you have no one to protect now while you are fighting so your fighting goes all for revenge. Person like you will never be a hero nor a winner. So now you feel happy and victory that you are a better fighter than Kira? that you are more superior? There is no way for you to compete with him for who is better fighter because you can't even be on the weighing balance scale with Kira"
I kinda like the remaster version too especially I get to see the images better and some edition scenes and expressiosn into each episode but sadly I really don't like the music they insert during the fights. They did a major change on the background music which I don't feel much agitate as before the remaster series. This made me sad too.
Hopefully get to see final scenes where Cagalli and Athrun could get together after this destiny war since we already know Kira definitely staying with Lacus. This is the only part which I have been looking forward for the last episode of Remaster gundam seed destiny. I got the feeling they never got together because obviously Cagalli all she care is Orb and for Athrun is PLANTs. Haizz..
the wall of text are real, TL;DR version plz~
DeleteNothing looks changed to me.
ReplyDeleteWhat a shit show. We're done here.
Well what were you expecting?
DeleteAt least the footage has a lot more sharpness and clarity now.
I'm not sure it is that much more sharp in actuality. The video on the right looks to be a 380p rip and not from the actual dvd source, so it's going to look terrible.
Deletegay
DeleteI second that.
DeleteDo you need eye surgery @anon 11:40?
DeleteThe blurry pictures aren't his fault.
DeleteEven then the animation is the same in comparison.
If there's nothing wrong with the animation, why change it? Only change what that needs to be change. For one, they all had been widen and everything else is spread out more which is nice and the last picture where they put Savior Gundam in the wrong place
DeleteNow we wait for GARthun to own Shinn....... HD style.
ReplyDeleteLast episode pending.
Last episode would be nice.
DeleteI can't wait until this horse shit is over with for the 3rd time.
/fuckseed
should athrun even be proud of beating shinn in the final battle? shinn is so confused and poorly written that he doesn't even know up from down.
DeleteFISHEYEthrun
Deletewhy is it every where i go with gundam there are tons of people bashing seed/destiny? if they don't like it why bother even watching? i just find it funny how childish people act sometimes
ReplyDeleteO.K. Seed = shit... very simple. In order to judge properly the "show", you must watch this, right?
DeleteThis is no funny boy, NO FUNNY
His point is that you shouldn't bother yourself with things you dislike..
DeleteThe thing is though, it's human psychology to react negatively to things they dislike. Others move away from things that have no value to them and move on with their lives, saying a word or two against these things/people they dislike and let others judge on their own. While most just love to linger around whatever/whoever they dislike and they try to make themselves feel important in what they do while the only thing their doing is saying their dislike over that certain matter over a given period of time that that thing/person is given attention to. The second action, that most people use to take is very unproductive and just leads absolutely nothing of value.
In this case in the recent re-appearance of the SEED series', it's pretty much the same. Just ranting out your hatred about the SEED series won't do us any good. Best thing to do to people is just say something like "SEED/Destiny? That series sucked for me big time, trust me! You're free to give it a shot, I won't stop you. If you liked it, okay cool, but if you didn't then don't let me tell you I told you so." . Or perhaps something along those lines.
I've grown tired from all this shit that the gundam community is doing to each other. Despite the general meaning of each and every gundam series out there is finding understanding between each other and seeing past our differences and focusing on our similarities instead. It's like the gundam community never learned anything from all the gundams shows that they watched.
Sometimes the moeblob and Touhou communities makes absolutely more sense than us seriously... -_-
Seed still sucks though.
DeleteI agree with OP. Yeah Destiny sucks yada yada, but c'mon guys it's time to move on. Nobody's putting a gun to your head forcing you to watch this. There are better things to invest your time, like getting laid..
DeleteWell, I can say I've been laid a bunch of times since it came out.
DeleteAnd I still hate this show. So if you have some better advice for someone like me, I would appreciate it. I really don't think there's a cure. And everytime I see it, it's as if they are putting a gun to my head.
No more, Please!
Maybe get started on that pile of unbuilt gunpla?
DeletePeople have been trolling SEED/Destiny so Bandai's trolling them back with more of it.
Delete@Anonymous 5:30
DeleteEither stay away from forums and anything related to Gundam for the next few weeks or see a shrink. PTSD is not something to laugh about
what JustPassingThru said is absoulutely right, and sadly, most of the comments above fall to the senseless community and definitely waste their time watching gundam without understanding the message behind
DeletePeople mindlessly bashing seed are hivemind fags since the same reasons they list plague every other gundam show. Besides the art style.
ReplyDeleteMost people opt to just mindlessly bash the series though, as seen in most of these comments. Or, if its on a forum or imageboard like /m/, they would most likely resort to posting someone else's copy/paste opinion on the series.
That being said, Destiny is a completely shit show that makes the original SEED look bad, and this remaster was unnecessary. Alot of other gundam shows or productions by sunrise could have benefitted from a HD remaster rather than Destiny.
I guess Bandai opted for the easiest cash-in for them.
>HD remaster other series
DeleteThis.
SEED/Destiny is one badass motherfucking cash cow... seriously if I've come up with an ingenious cost-effective way to milk people for money I'd do it over and over again till the zombie populace gets tired of it.
DeleteThink as an investor or as a bussinessman... and you'll see that the SEED(metaseries) is the smartest move that the company Bandai had ever made over the years. SEED attracted new blood into the gundam community, attracted the likes of doujin artists and fujoshis alike to join in *albeit still in a diffrent field of interest than most of us), and it even attracted normal people (non otaku types that only know a handful anime from their childhood) all thanks to the music. These all lead to MASSIVE (yes it's all caps cause it was MASSIVE) profits I tell you.
SEED universe could have kept going on thanks to this... the problem was, Destiny was just an absolute failure for a story. I still believe Destiny wasn't supposed to exist, but thanks to the company's pressure, they just had to make it without reviewing it properly just to satisfy their hungry wallets. :/
If they kept going though they would have ended up like the last Final Fantasy game that caused the CEO to resign due to massive losses or like EA Games having so many substandard games.
Yeah but did those other shows make tons of cash for Bandai? I may not like Destiny but its popularity in Japan matches the twilight franchise.
DeleteThe last I've heard. SEED or SEED Destiny isn't the top Gundam series anymore. And it's been at 10 years since it was new.
DeleteThe popularity has dropped quite a bit in Japan since then.
Most of those views are determined by sites polling anime fans. It's like polling literature fans on how good Twilight is, you aren't going to get a positive response because people that frequent the medium have decided the thing is shit and will bash it accordingly.
DeleteKira and Lacus both still frequently end up in the Newtype character polls, which is a far better way of judging whether Seed and Destiny are still liked by the masses. And Seed at least was actually a very good series, Destiny alas ruined that image and now gets people bashing both it and anyone who says something even somewhat positive about Seed.
No. These were Japanese polls rated not even a year ago by a Japanese magazine.
DeleteEven the character polls have dropped too. You're welcome to do that kind of research and look this up. But don't say I didn't tell you so.
IMHO they made a remaster project for Destiny only because the remaster project for SEED was fairly successful. That and because doing Destiny after SEED makes sense.
DeleteOf course the argument that there are other Gundam shows worthy of a remaster always holds up. But to do that the show itself would actually be in need of it as well as actually being profitable. Like the original series which is going to get a reboot in Origin. Asides from the obvious changes in the chronological events, Origin is bound to be done in (hopefully) Unicorn style graphics. But then, it's a reboot, not a remaster and it's probably geared towards re-introducing the original for the younger generation of fans, most of whom grew up in the newer, sharper animations of recent mecha-anime.
As of today, it's a given that SEED's popularity had dropped compared to it's status back in 2004 or something. I don't think the music is going to be able to save it today since they were already the previous trend among the youth of like almost a decade ago. And this remaster project has a huge potential of failing because it's not in trend with the current generation anymore. But we'll see...
DeleteHonestly though I for one look forward to it's success simply because if it does succeed somehow, then Bandai will definitely release new MGs for us to buy. At this point in time, I care more about getting newer and better looking gunpla kits rather than lamenting the failures of the anime or praising its strengths. I just enjoy the show as it is without ever thinking too much about it. Gundam is simply a hobby anyway and not really my life or anything.
The images were obviously taken from streams, which do not have the best quality to begin with. So this unfortunately isn't a good comparison.
ReplyDeleteNo matter how much you could compare, it's the same.
ReplyDeleteIt's no better than something like Star Wars in 3D, where they just re-encode the film 3D. It's kind of like an oxymoron. lol
It's not even the Blu-Ray release and you're saying it's the same already? I love seed haters, i love how mindless they are
DeleteWhy isn't it the same on the Youtube release then?
DeleteEven when the Blu-Rays come out, it's going to be the same. What is it with you seedfags making things up all the time? Like changing the show for a third time.
Bitch, please.
@Anon11:12: Then you clearly have not seen the difference between Seed Remaster's BD and the one on YT.
DeleteNippleless boobs in HD!
ReplyDeleteIt's easier to just watch real porn or read some nonsense fan fiction.
DeleteTrust me.
may I suggest for you to take a liking in the monster musume subgenre of the hentai world? it's pretty awesome if I say so myself XD
DeleteLOL. Most of the pics simply look like a comparison between "with glasses" and "without glasses"
ReplyDeletemy thoughts exactly... XD
DeleteIs this for real? it's like they blurred the old one so the HD looks better
ReplyDeleteRemember friends, Gundam Seed Destiny ends in episode 34, when Shinn uses his epic Sword Crash of DOOM against Kira and freeing the world from the evil dictator, Laccus.
ReplyDeleteIt brings me a tear in my eye every time I see it.
^the truth has been spoken ladies and gents! Honestly I was hoping kira was dead when rhe aegis blew up on his face. I wish stargazer was a full series instead of a 3 episode ova... (^-^)/
Deletethat would have been better
DeleteThere are more re animations in the episode, eg when Athrun pilots the Zaku.
ReplyDeleteI watched the original and this to compare the two.
DeleteYou are a liar. Please leave.
A liar? Bitch please, I watched the original with the HD remaster side by side. U mIsrael be blind not being able to notice such a big difference. I only cited one example there were more.
DeleteWhat is it with you people???
DeleteStop making things up already.
Making things up? U should watch the original and the HD remaster side by side as well than u will see who's the one making things up.
DeleteThanks for the comparison images GG. Hope to see more as the show airs :)
ReplyDeleteSeeing this type of thing again, makes me want to cringe and roll up in a ball.
ReplyDeleteSeeing all kind of nonsense, like Kira x Lacus fansites and fan fiction on the characters. It's really disturbing stuff if you ask me. I think it's fans that make it worse than it already is.
Hello, can someone explain me how it really works ? a friend of mine told me that there is 3 Versions of SEED, the Old one, the remaster on Youtube, and the one on bluray that cost 200$ for 15ep. is the bluray a HD version of the remastered on youtube ? or is it a Remastered version of the remastered ? well i don't know if you get what i'm tryng to say but, if someone could clear me that would be great ^^ i want to know which version look with the most details. thanks ! (sorry for my english i tried my best ^^')
ReplyDeleteWell, the one on Youtube is the exact thing on Bluray. Not worth wasting money, unless you want all the special little goodies that come with the back.
DeleteNow the difference between the old version and the HD version is, the video quality is sharper, they have altered some scenes, and they've changed the angle of certain animations in the series.
Now for detail, you'd want to go for the HD (Youtube or Blueray.) I just said its sharper and it is as you can see by the comparison pictures.
This is wrong. There are additional redrawn scenes on the blu ray release not present on the youtube version. This is because they use the 16:9 scenes that were used in the compilation movies as a temporary work around for scenes they could not do in time to be broadcast each week on youtube and on tv.
DeleteWhen the blu ray is released all the temporary scenes from the movie compilations are thrown out with new redrawn scenes. This is the incentive to get the blu rays because it is the true definitive HD version.
Just had to come and laugh at all the haters!
ReplyDeleteI really wish they could give this HD Remaster treatment for Gundam Wing and the Endless Waltz film as well as Gundam X and G Gundam.
ReplyDeleteBro, that won't be happening in a long time. See, the reason why they made a Remaster for Seed/Seed Destiny is because, they created two different versions of the series, the TV version, the one that looks like real bad, then the DVD version, which is basically the HD Remaster version. Now, all they did to make this HD Remaster was sharpen the animation, alter some scenes to make it unique and that's it. Major win-win right there because it was a simple thing to create. So yeah, that's why we haven't gotten that sort of Treatments yet, because it would actually take a lot of work for them to make a Brand new HD Remaster cause they never made a separate DVD version (While Seed did.) and the original animations for those series you want HD Treatment, are pretty bad for this generation of animation.
DeleteAgain, that won't be happening for a while, guy, just be grateful we got an HD Remaster for Seed. And as for Seed Destiny, just nod your head and move on. Cause Seed Destiny was not worth it due to the plot of the sequel. :p
Wing and X are hand drawn. Inserting digital animation into those shows would look awful. See what they did to the Zeta movies.
DeleteBesides Wing's already been remastered.
gee!,i wonder what happened at the comments of the last episode?, it looks like it doesn't exist anymore.
ReplyDeleteanyone care to explain?
Johnny [being] ridden decide to close the comments for that post.
DeleteAnd the troll wars was just getting fun..
Deleteso when i see these comparisons, sometimes it looks like they just sharpened up what we are seeing, other times it looks like the re-did the entire scene, is the HD REMASTER a mix of those two or was just that much lost in the low def?
ReplyDeleteA third series would be better than a movie that we been hearing for the past few years
ReplyDeleteThe supply truck in the third pic needs an MG!
ReplyDeleteOh great. Instead of fixing the plot, they just added more decals. Katoki would be proud.
ReplyDeleteLooks really good, I must admit, I am happy with the way the remaster is turning out ... so far.

----------------------------
care to give me a quick retelling?
Two trolls against the world. You know the ones.
Deleteshinn's sword crash guy and the rubber nipple guy?
Deletebut... why someone would be offended by semi-robotic posts?
Actually there's a third. The seedf*g guy. He was going around calling everyone f*gs.
DeleteA polished turd is still a turd. If you enjoyed Destiny, that's fine and I wish you well. I you're going to argue that Destiny was actually a good show, well, good luck with that.
ReplyDeleteI'm not going to blame the producers for milking some more money from it (that's what any company would do), but Destiny's still a SHAMEFURRR DISPRAY!
Learn how to spell, fucktard.
DeleteIf you're going to say all nice, shouldn't start with turd
DeleteAnyone know who's Zaku Phantom that purple one is with the yellow emblem?
ReplyDeleteWhere's Meer's nipples?
ReplyDeleteBoobies remastered...because they're soo important to character development
ReplyDeleteYour implying there's more to her character? :D
Deleteanyone know where to download this anime with EN sub??
ReplyDeleteIt's like Joel Schumacher ruined Gundam.
ReplyDeletewow, its no wonder seedfags have a cock in their ass
ReplyDeleteNo Nipples tho... hahah
ReplyDeleteoh nippleless freaks.....well at least meer's nipples can be seen during episode 21 i think if ididnt remembered wrong(sleeping scene with athrun)
ReplyDeletelets just admit that seed sucks because of kira.if you look at in the terms on videos and computer games.kira a good modder.he can never die,not even from a nuke and does not give him the right for people to call him Jesus yamaoto and destiny probably would had turned alot better if the creator wasnt fighting cancer and sunrise wasnt pushing her to keep the episode coming while she was recovering.sunrise only cared for the money so destiny suffered.if they would had waited for her to recovered destiny could had failed but maybe not if the fans knew what had been going on with the creator.i know i wouldnt,i would had keep watching it even if it took longer then other series.what sunrise needs to do is scrap this destiny and let her redo the series all over the way she wanted to do it cause im sure being pressured by sunrise caused her to make alot of mistakes and repeats from other series instead of making it all original.i think shinn would had been liked alot more if his character was more developed then he got.it like after kira came back and freedom was destoryed that was it.his character barely had any real time to grow and for us to understand.that may just be me and my 3 gundam friends that think that but that how we feel about destiny.it was ok even though the creator was pressured while recovering from cancer but it could had been done alot better if sunrise would had given her the time to do and let her do the series her way
