5 out of 5 starsExcellent as you look at today's world...
If you like seed, you'll love destiny. As in Seed, there will be sides to the conflict. But here, 3 perspectives. One side that will try to find a solution, and off course, thoughts will go left and right as there are no answers to the questions yet. Look at today's world.
This show is a must, kids and adults can watch it. It's good to reflect on thoughts.



3 out of 5 starsFun but not prefect
MSG SEED Destiny continues to be an action packed ride but at this point the series has started to go downhill

If you liked SEED you probably still like Destiny

the story starts to change as the focus shifts to Kira and company and Durandals goals become clearer.

If you like Kira then this may seem a welcome change but be warned as the series continues you will begin to see more of the same from SEED



3 out of 5 starsRushed
Well here we are the 8th volume of the sequal to gundam seed. Though this series had an almost painfully slow start it's picking up speed in the last few volumea. The acceleration is still going in this volume which is sad, the last volume's passing was just right and the entire volume feels rushed. It's almost like the director realized that they only have 4 more volumes left and the series is over so they're rushing around trying to finish everything. Still it's not bad but with the rushed episodes stop it from reaching the full potential they could have reached. It was a fantastic chance for them to develope Shin past is self rightous child that doesn't really understand anything phase that makes you just wnat to beat some sense into, and it could have also gone into the complicated political scene and character relationships so on and so forth. Instead they rush you from one fight to another with nothing inbetween. But that's the stroy the entire series. Full of potential but just comes short dew to lack of depth and lack of character developemen and this volume is no different. For those of you who have baught the previous volumes, pick this one up. For everyone else unless you really really need more of the characters from Seed ship this series entirely it's abig let down and this is one of the worst volumes yet.



3 out of 5 starsPlenty of action with a flimsy plot.
Plenty of action with a flimsy plot. This disc almost perfectly illustrates why I like this series and why I loathe it at the same time. The animation throughout the series is some of the best I've ever seen in a weekly series, almost movie quality. The show really knows how to make a spectacular presentation.

That brings me to the flip side of this coin, the plot. It just doesn't bring you into truly understanding the characters and at some points the philosophy just doesn't hold water. It doesn't make sense.

On this disc, the Destroy Gundam is sent tearing through Berlin and the pilot, who Shinn is infatuated with, is killed by Kira. Shinn solely blames Kira, but not the men who forced her back into that machine in the first place. Also, what was the point of the battle to begin with? To burn down some cities? Meanwhile, Athrun is left without a machine to pilot and seemingly has no power throughout this disc even when his old friends a being attacked and seemingly killed.

In conclusion, the action is well executed, but it seems like they fail to really use the characters to their potential and there never seems to be much of a reason or a point to all of this.
