Alright I'm halfway into episode 1 and there's just something utterly amazing about the art design and animation style of the first decade of Gundam shows that simply emanates "perfect sci fi visuals". Mobile Suit Gundam has it, Stardust Memory has it, and Zeta definitely has it as well. It's that same feeling I get when I watch the first Star Wars trilogy or 2001: A Space Odyssey. Even Star Trek doesn't consistently have it cause the TV budget grounds the visuals. But old school Gundam definitely does. That feeling of a sci fi universe perfectly conceived and perfectly wrought.
