GUNDAM is the most famous anime series. In this October, the newest series, Gundam 00 released its second season. For the one who doesn’t know, Gundam 00 is a story set in a future earth and centered around “Celestial Being”, a private paramilitary force and their efforts to get rid the war in earth with a series of unique and highly advanced mobile suits (or robots) known as “Gundams”. The person who’s piloting the Gundam is called “Gundam Meister”. For Gundam lovers, you can’t miss this one.
The story for the second season is set four years after the first season, after the final battle between celestial being and UN forces. A new organization formed known as “A-LAWS” misuse the power and inhumane tactics to oppress freedoms, doctrines, and ideologies in the name of 'unity'. Because of that, the main character who survived the battle once again decided to fight with the Gundam.
The main characters of this series are still the same with Soran Ibrahim or his codename Setsuna F. Seiei and his friends, Tieria Erde, Allelujah Haptism and Lyle Dylandy or his codename Lockon Stratos. Lyle picks the same codename as his twin brother, Neil Dylandy who died in the first season. There are also some new characters that will make the story plot more interesting.
In this season each of the Gundam Meisters will use their new Gundams because the old ones were destroyed during the final battle in the first season. Setsuna’s Gundam, Exia is replaced with 00 (double 0) Gundam. Lockon’s Gundam, Dynames is replaced with Cherudim Gundam. Allelujah’s Gundam, Kyrios is replaced with Arios Gundam. And the last one Tieria’s Gundam, Virtue is replaced with Seravee Gundam.
This anime is created by Hajime Yatate and Yoshiyuki Tomino and directed by Seiji Mizushima. The character design will be made by Michinori Chiba and Yun Koga. Lots of people handled the mechanical design because that part is the main attraction of the movie. They are Hitoshi Fukuchi, Kanetake Ebikawa, Kenji Teraoka, Kunio Okawara, Naohiro Washio, Seiichi Nakatani and Takayuki Yanase. A rock band from Japan, UVERworld, will sing their song, “Hakanaku mo Towa no Kanashi” for the opening song in this anime. For the ending song, Chiaki Ishikawa will sing her song called “Prototype”
You can watch this anime streaming from the internet but most of the sites only have the 1st episode. Just wait for a while, and the rest will be available. This anime is recommended for Gundam lovers and anyone who wants to see a new thrill of war and conflicts.
I haven’t watched the first episode but from what I saw in some anime sites, this anime is great and exciting. If you want to listen to the songs and want to know more, check out the sources that I used:
