Hey, I'm new here :X I was wondering if anyone knows who the original pilot of the freedom was? Athrun was chosen to polite 1 of the new models, but who was meant to pilot the other? I don't know if it's ever been told, but it would be awesome if someone knew. ^-^

Do you mean Kira Yamato? He piloted the Strike and the freedom. As well as the strike freedom.

Kira was not the original pilot intended for the freedom. Lacus helped steal the Freedom for Kira.

EDIT : I've also started wondering, what was reverand malchio's true character? He knows so much. You even hear Athrun's father say "It's nice to know the reverand made it all the way here". What standings could he possibly have for even the command of ZAFT to have interest in him.

I've watched gundam seed several times over, but these are things I've just for the first time started to wonder, trying to understand things even more indepth.

too bad you never read gundam seed astrays. actually the freedom was intended for zaft's "super" pilots. one candidate is canard parrs, the super coordinator and a "super" clone, prayer revier.

and speaking of freedom, notice that the freedom has an anime glitch? if you have seen the anime a couple of times, you would have notice it.

What exactly do you mean by anime glitch? Please explain it to the rest of us.

rematche

really? none of you notice? okay, then. freedom's hi-matt attack shoots in a straight line but it is shown in the anime that it shoots in different angles. even the freedom is in one area and the enemies are in different directions, it was able to hit them all simultaneously. again, the direction of the freedom's projectile is a straight line but it was able to hit them in multiple angles. it's arsenal can't move in different directions. and also the strike freedom carries that "glitch".

Oh, yeah, I noticed that. But they do sorta expplain that in Dynasty warriors. When you do the Himatt attack, and you look from the back, you can see his guns angled slightly. It allows him to hit a wider range. I'm not sure if that's what you mean but that's what I think.

I never thought of that before. In many gundam series I have seen there are sevearl incidents where the the gundam beam doesn't actually hit something and it explodes. I think a beam that can change direction a way to make that idea seem more realistic.
