Gundam 00 Specials

Today I will give review about this gundam 00 specials. For those who wonders what is this specials all about, I just need 1 word to explain it, RECAP!! I don't know what is in Bandai and Sunrise minds when they decided to create these 3 parts of specials. Lets cut to the chase shall we?

Specials Part I
Basically its a recap of all 25 episodes of Gundam 00 Season 1, they added some 30 seconds scene in some scene to makes thing clearer. The only things that added the specials is where the narrator, Reborn Almark, explain what in his thought at some scene(Ex. When Alejandro shoot Aeolia). I cannot gives you the recap about this specials because basically its already a recap.

Special part II
This is a recap of half of Gundam 00 Season 2, the specials ended with the destruction of the 1st Memento Mori. Like the 1st part of the 00 specials, there are added scene which helps to make things clearer and the thought of reborn almark over several scene, other than that specials it is just a recap. However, too bad they ended in just the destruction of the memento mori, it doesn't cover how celestial being ended up on earth.

Special part III
The last part of the 00 specials, also only a recap of the last half of 00 2nd season. To be honest with you all anime lovers, I am disappointed with the specials part III. Why?

First, we need to wait for it to be release which is 3 months after the 2 specials released.

Second, it's a recap.

Third, this is what made me upset the most, it look like made in a hustle and it is so bad!!! the way they put stephanie's songs, Friends, in a battle when setsuna+saji vs. Louis and when tieria ambush reborn. Then put songs which has effect to increase excitement and battle in a scene where sumeragi asking for forgiveness from billy. then put sad songs when all people in celestial being has a moral boost and louis recovers from being death.

Fourth, cutting battle scene between celestial being and innovado especially the battle scene between reborn gundam and 00 raiser, gundam vs gundam battles, which this series are lack of. The way they cut it off is worse than ever, suddenly 00 lose his legs or suddenly 00 lose its head.

This is the worst possible specials bandai ever made yet.

Overall, I would not recommend you, anime lovers, especially those who lives in a country with low bandwidth to download this specials specifically the part III. Since it is not worth the trouble and time!!! Sorry for being harsh and showing too much of emotion in my reviews, but watching this specials pissed me off.

I hope all anime lovers stick for another anime review from me.
