Anno vs. Tomino

Clean shaven Anno is a fucking gremlin

What kind of question is this, Anno wouldn't even fucking exist without Tomino

Is Anno Tomino's bastard son? Is that why he's so disappointed in everything Anno does, kind of like Miyazaki and his kid?

He's goblin-looking in general.

Tomino has way more quality stuff, Anno is a one trick pony.

Fine, I'll watch Gundam.
What's the BEST entry? TV, OVA, Movie, I don't care.
>start chronologically
I'll get filtered by the length or the animation. I'd like to ease myself into the franchise.

If you don't want to start at the beginning, watch 0080. It's an OVA that's only 6 episodes long. You're going to have to watch the older TV series eventually though if you want to actually get into the franchise though. I wouldn't suggest watching anything but 0080 before 0079 though.

Tomino is not a good visual storyteller or good at writing natural dialogue. Turn a being as good as it was mostly came down to everyone else in the staff I theorize which is why g reco looks good from an art and animation standpoint but often times the direction is dated as shit. Anno is really good at having high impact punchy transitions and dialogue like in kare kano but also really great at letting scenes breathe and speak for themselves (shinji playing in the sand box in end of eva is one of the best moments of visual storytelling in his career). Anno is just way better in every way as someone that was pressured into watching gundam because of gundam fans shit talking eva constantly I really enjoyed the franchise but the highlights were not even directed by tomino and in spite of enjoying his stuff for the most part ; the only thing victory gundam was dogshit everything else ranged from decent like f91 or zz to very good with turn a being the outlier masterpiece. Anno’s style is just way more impressive to me and the way he transitioned it to live action making some really amazing films just shows how he is leagues above almost every anime director as an artist. The rebuilds were Fucking awful though but Kare kano and Eva are giants of artistry.

0080 and thunderbolt are good if you just want to kind of see what it is about but you should def look up a summary of the original series to get the most of them. Could also try the original films but they cut some shit and are still very much old ass anime

Why is it that this concept of "the good entries are because of everyone else, not the director" exists? It could theoretically apply to every series since every series is made up of a ton of people. And the same thing could be applied to bad things too. Why is it everyone else that was responsible for Turn A being good but it's solely Tomino's fault that Victory has issues? You're literally just picking and choosing things that fit your preconceived notions.

Just start with original gundam...yes I know UGHHHH the animation is SO terrible but that is where you start when you want to watch the most influential anime series of the late 70s
