.:. Gundam 00 season 2 .:.

Arrived in Singapore late last nite cos of delayed flight. Not gonna blog bout the trip now, maybe sometime later when I've selected the photos.

So the first I do the next day after I am back is to finish up the gundam series that I left hanging cos of the trip (so I tink this post is pretty much for my own future reference onli). Been wanting to watch this series (Gundam 00 season 2) for a very long time, cos due to JC onli could watch bits and pieces here and there. But now thanks to recommendation from Sharon, I can watch it in full :) and here are my comments bout the series.

Storyline: I luved the storyline for this season 2. IMO its almost on par with Gundam Seed. Its a carry-forward from the season 1 (Duh), but it deals with the very essence of problem in most gundam series. Season 1 saw the creation of Celestial Being, an organisation funded with 4 gundams to stop all conflicts on Earth, and the series saw through with the gundams defeating the big baddy at a heavy cost of some essential ppl dying, gundams being destroyed and pilots captured. Season 2 carried on from there, as the they all try to regroup with each other and start-off to correct the world, mainly to correct the chaos in the world caused by their gundam's armed interventions (the essence of problem in gundam series: using conflict to stop conflict). So the storyline was very appealing, as to how all the characters came to be, the revelation of the secret meaning behind Celestial Being's inital creation and the the all important purpose of what the pilots are fighting for. Although I would say the ending could have been done better, as in the last few episodes, I feel things were abit too rushed and din really stuck to the storyline liao. And thats why I say its almost on par with Gundam Seed.

Mecha: Luv the new Gundams introduced in this season. Dam IMBA nice looking. The sleekest exia is re-furbished into the almighty 00 raiser. Not much new tech introduced though, GN particles carried forward from season 1, Cherudim's shield bits a meer representation of the dragoons of freedom, and I felt the GN missles weren't as cool as it used to be. But I must say, the Innovator's mobile suits were seriously downplayed this season, a huge down factor on the season 2. The mobile suits were not utilised to their full potential at all, making meer minutes entrance into the show (more on that in the next part).

Cheography: For those of you who dunnoe, its how the fight scenes are like (what weapons are pit against which, the kicks, the punches, how certain weapons are used etc). This season not much, but Gundam 00 was nvr much a very cheographed gundam series, but more on strategies to overcome the missions which always leave me in awe. What else to expect, when the main character's gundam is like jus pew pew, and then all the mobile suits jus die. The main character's suit is jus too overpowered for there to be any cheography.

Music: The 2nd intro for the season is dam nice, and there's also an insert song that is sung by kids and the lyrics are simple and heart-warming (but i cant find the song).

Somehow I cant embed the video to this post, dunnoe why, but since its late I'm gonna try another day ba. For now that's it :)

Flying high, up high on wings
The heat dissolves them
and he falls into the deep sea.

A single tear drops into the serene water, creating a wave
That wave is blown by the wind and reaches far away.

The moon gently massages my shoulders
reflecting a yellow path on the water surface.
