i agree. i even heard from some critic that kira was the strongest willed protagonist.. WHAT? in the first episode of wing, heero was prepared to blow his brains out for his mission! he sethis broken leg, tied it with a ripped cloth, and walked away! Amuro was the first (and in my opinion, greatest) newtype, plus he destroyed two zakus with nothing but beam saber and head vulcans, in the first 5 minutes of piloting it. how arew they not strong willed.
i agree, the phase shift armor is about all that makes them great. plus in like all the other shows, there made of gundanium (or gundalim, depending on the timeline) and that deflects most conventonal weapons. although, i have to admit, its kinda cool that strike gundam has knives. kind of fresh idea,(but the only such idea in gundam seed that ive seen so far.)
its pretty much, if SEED is ur first gundam, you'll like it. but you will probably like UC timeline shows better.
by the way, anyone seen turn A gundam? is it any good?
