This is an epic battle, if not one of the best in Gundam History. Shows how Great Kira´s skills are. Shows how Athrun is merciless in Seed. Shows how Rey can use the DRAGOON system and shows how Shinn cant beat Kira nor Athrun.
Or do not be stupid enough to fight Justice gundam in a melee fight. That gundam has every melee armament in its body bruh. The fact that he had every armament in mid and long range combat he still uses melee weapon at the end. 😂😂
Kira still uses the multi-targeting system in the X10A Freedom. Besides, nothing really changed with the SF except with the addition of the SUPER DRAGOONS. It is a fitting upgrade for Kira.
How I wished that Shinn can die under Kira's ultimate attack which was all the firing of his Dragoon, cannons and his beam rifle instead of Ray taking that attack...
@oyametalicusII No.. in the battlefield, the ones who are the most calm and has the longest stamina survives, in a war the fastest runner doesnt win, the one who can run the longest and think calculatively have higher chances of winning a mission, those who are emotional become reckless and get side tracked from the mission and usually are the biggest trouble makers in the team.. a real soldier only engage when necessary and does what ever it takes to complete the mission and save ammunition..
@narutoman876 Well I can agree with that, But the strength of Kira,Athrun and the other main characters was mainly because they were in general a step above others, well Kira was an aimbot because he is an Ultimate Coordinator so it kinda makes sense, Athrun is just well trained and a solid soldier with a powerful machine, Shinn is just vicious which works to his advantage. I agree though, They went a step too far with it though.
athrun : the best melee since seed. 1. abbyss gundam : hands and legs are laser knives. even the plane mode is sword missile 2. savior gundam : athrun tryna be ranger mid, but keeps using swords. 3. justice gundam : savior but more melee now. 4. infinite justice : hands, legs, shield, backpack, are swords. 5. infinite justice 2 : literally all swords except the rifle.
@oyametalicus Turn A can self regenerate, it can teleport, it's virtually immune to beam weaponry due to it's i-field, and it's moonlight butterfly will reduce any and all technology to sand. It's not a fair fight really.
I'm a Kira fan and I agree that Athrun has the edge in close range plus when you consider their gundams are designed that way to it makes more sense for Kira to be better at ranged combat that close ranged, but thats just wat i think
@TheAnimeOverviewer actually, all of turn-A's skills are now garbage, thanks to 00 Quanta, it can also teleport not just in the battlefield but in different kind of planets, if I ever pilot turn-A, I'd never mess with 00Q because I don't want my nanomachines from my moonlight butterfly to be assimilated by ELS
@portablemp5 Well...piloting such a badass Gundam like the Strike Freedom,Kira doesn't need to engage in close combat.Kira do have the skill when he's piloting the Strike Gundam,though he lost to Athrun due to the self-destruct capability of the Aegis.
The hatred only comes from North American fans, In Japan Gundam Seed/Destiny are both very popular and cared for, Hence why they decided to celebrate the 10 year anniversary with a HD remake. Also whether its popular in the states doesnt really matter, what matters is how asian public recieves it.
@oyametalicus Yeah, if the Strike Freedom had no legs or arms and only 1 dragoon, with minimum power. Otherwise the 00 Raiser would die. However that is my personal opinion :P
@AngelBaby4U100 yes, setsuna is a cold-blooded killer because he fights like a real soldier should be...hitting enemies on its cockpit is what he do when fighting ALAWS, an enemy is an enemy and will be shot in the cockpit, unlike some other guy there who doesn't, you know who it is? it's someone who is soft.. "I wanna protect my friends!!" I remember that line haha
@oyametalicus Double X has those awesome beam sabers, but I will admit Trans-am will kill it at close range, but I'm not sure about long range, but close range you're right....but if it is Nu Gundam, its up in the air considering Amuro is the pilot
@narutoman876 hey hey. Strike Freedom is near "Super Robot" , but why don't you see OO quanta , this one is really higher than Strike Freedom. You said no logic? I agree with you , but all Gundams are higher technology than our era ,so I think we can't blame them that. And indeed all of them have logics ,but some of them are higher than now. OO quanta use Physics Quantum , Strike Freedom use Nuclear Fission .
Strike Freedom: A Gundam that incorporates all the strongest aspects of every other Gundam throughout the series but makes them better. Piloted by Jesus. Exists so a lazy creator can have an easy way to make his beloved Mary Sue character, having already been stripped of the compelling faults and weaknesses of the previous season, even more invincible than before.
@zeakchi I definetly agree with you on that part, it could have been better but if you look at this battle for what it is and try to avoid thinking about the reused footage, its still a huge battle and one of the best, It is definetly not the best in the world, No way. If I would list all of the best Gundam fights in Histoy, This would be in the lower half of the top 10 or 11,12... Im just saying that its pretty good and memorable.
@RogueFeathers I will not speak to someone of your caliber who is obviously not getting the fact that I am talking about the strength of piloting, Nothing more and nothing less. Kira is in fact a skilled pilot, Athrun still is unstoppable in Seed and those battles in the end proved that Shinn could sadly not beat Kira nor Athrun. Good pilot though.
Gundam Seed has a total of 50 Episodes (20 minutes each) + 1 OVA Between the stars (Extra Episode). Gundam Seed Destiny is its sequel, which also has 50 Episodes + 1 OVA. This specific battle is from Gundam Seed Destiny but I suggest you first watch Gundam Seed, Then Gundam Seed Destiny. There are also movie versions of both Series.
The way you gotta see it is that Shinn was a bad guy. He may not have knew it, or may not have thought so, but he was. ZAFT were the bad guys, along with the Earth Fed. And The first 39 episodes, where Shinn was the protagonist, it was the POV of the bad guys.
@SilverWorldEnter The music was the best part. It really pisses me off cause both had potential to be so much better. All the small things were done so perfectly and realistically, like controls, artillery, soldiers, etc, but then the Main characters and their MSs are border line super robot and follow no logic. they hired people to advise them and tell them about real current military technology, and they blew it.
technically Turn-A gundam can wipe out all machinery or something like that so i guess that makes it the most powerful gundam in terms of it just makes everything else turn to dust(or sand i dont remember)
@knight2battle poor shinn, if he has just got the right plot, he would never be like that... good thing gundam 00 changed my life and perspective of watching gundam series...
I would definetly make another Season to finish it off properly. I think that the way Destiny ended was great, a new season would be phenomenal though :)
Close range combat shows more skill after all. Amuro vs Char: in CCA The beam saber duel turned into a wrestling match after being disarmed of their beam saber.EPIC Heero vs Zechs: Epyon is a Gundam meant for dueling(No long range weapon) and they had a beam saber duel WITHOUT using their respective ZERO systems(Epyons ZERO system can only be used via the helmet and WZ's cockpit didn't glow gold) And Heero wins against Zechs. Less Epic but just as good.
@narutoman876 I enjoyed Seed and Seed Destiny but I definetly saw those flaws as well, There is no question about the fact that Destiny had so many flaws that its hard to count all of them. What happened to Cagalli happened to Shinns voice actor as well, Fukuda´s wife was having issued with Shinns Voice Actor so she made the character even harder to like. I agree that it should have been better but all the creation aside, it was still entertaining and the music was top notch
We shouldn't really hate Shinn, he had a horrible past, and he only managed ti beat Kira before was cause Kira was holding back because he wouldn't want to kill Shinn
@oyametalicusII i think what the director want to make to gundam seed destiny is to make new character to lead the story (shin)but beside that make viewers waiting the real hero (kira) comeback again..like people say hero not always win earlier because if hero win earlier the story wil become not interesting.....
@oyametalicusII Well if all the battles are completely redrawn and redone to be brought up to the standards of 00 Gundam or better yet, Gundam Unicorn then we are in for a real treat! But if its the exact same animations just restored in HD then that's a real let down (Like Dragonball Z Kai if you're familiar with that show.) The excessive use of recycled animation was the only thing that brought SEED's quality down towards the end. Do you have a source confirming the movie is completely dead?
it's frustrating looking for Gundam SEED on youtube because 90% of the results give me Gundam SEED Destiny and it's not what I'm looking for....however this video is awesome. And I love the DDR song too. Props.
Can someone tell me which Gundam series it was that had something like souls inside the Gundam? It was on Adult Swim, I think in 2001-04 ish---I remember watching it when I was 8 or 10.
@AbsoluteZer092 Seeing how the whole of the series refuses to develop his character and make him look bad so the old characters, while bland, can look good, that isn't surprising.
@AngelBaby4U100 ohh okay, I'll not argue with you anymore... gundam-wise I also think strike freedom is one of the best, but my only complaint is, the story made it a spoiled brat, I mean..not a scratch strike freedom, really?
@oyametalicusII Where did you hear this? I know the movie was on indefinite hiatus due to Chiaki Morosawa's cancer illness, but I have yet to hear about anything that said it was right out cancelled. Where did you hear about this remastered series? You're not talking about the compilation movies that are already out are you? Or is this something completely brand new?
My point being was only Spec wise..'m not a fan of Turn-A just saying wat it COULD do given the right situation and the right pilot not trying to knock down anyone cuz personally my favorite is within a different gundam series lol Turn-A is merely a fantasy as you stated
@Ryan3d I will only say this once, I never said that it was the best FINAL BATTLE. I said that it was an epic battle and one of the best in Gundam History, Where do you see me saying Final Battle?...
Actually, you're slightly off with the Japan part: Gundam SEED; yes it was popular in Japan, but Gundam SEED Destiny was NOT Popular in Japan. Gundam SEED OUTSIDE of Japan most notably did EXCEEDINGLY WELL in Europe; the UK in particular It's like Gundam Wing is to the US as Gundam SEED is to the UK Gundam SEED & SEED Destiny did AMAZINGLY well in the UK, but in Japan only the ORIGINAL SEED did extremely well, SEED Destiny did not get received well in Japan and was THRASHED COMPLETELY in the USA
Yes I do know about the flaws, It uses the same footage over and over and over again and some fight scenes definetly get the shit end of the stick in that matter. I know all about Fukuda being a fan of Winged Gundams, Hence why most Mobile suits in Gundam Seed Destiny have some sort of wing mechanism. Im a fan of Gundam Seed/Destiny mainly because of the characters, its more emotional and personal than most Gundam shows. I agree though, Destiny had many flaws, Mostly how everybody survived.
@SilverWorldEnter It started of ok, but went to shit fast, the director let the fans tell him what to do, and his wife doing whatever the fuck she wanted. Did you know she wrote Cagalli's character into shit because she taught Fukuda had a crush on her VA. There's a lot more petty shit like that behind the scenes. It was a hack job, filled with melodramatic shit that only women would like. Kira became a perfect aimbot and everyone suddenly sucked. As hard as it is to say, I did enjoy SEED.
@opt999 the attitude was good, it just needs more development... I see, you're not familiar with devil may cry 4, where dante(the original lead) passed the torch to nero(the new guy)
Seed Destiny died when the creator decided to abandon Shinn and bring back Kira along with Authrn to make them the protagonist. Killed the story, especially how Shinn should had shot down and killed both of them. In the end Destiny didnt live up to how i thought it would thanks to a woman.
Alrighty then! =) I applaud you, dude! Being a REAL fan of Gundam SEED Destiny is a REALLY DIFFICULT THING TO DO with the amount of hatred towards that series in existance, and if you can do it, then GOOD FOR YOU!! ;-)
Yeah, I agree with you. Shinn definetly is a phenomenal Pilot and among the best in Gundam Universe but he really cant beat Kira nor Athrun. Also, I really dont have Shinn at all, I actually like him a lot as a character and a pilot.He is definetly on an equal playing field with Kira and Athrun.
@RogueFeathers the reason why kira beam spams is because of the stupid directors reusing the same shit over and over and again. im sure he is much more than that,
actually, seed destiny did well in japan too, but was not as good as seed. and in the USA almost everyone thrashed both seed and seed destiny and it got completely out of hand considering comments i read from gundam fans.
(continued) Being a REAL fan of Gundam SEED Destiny is VERY DIFFICULT, because REAL fans who acknowledge SEED Destiny's flaws but still enjoy it anyway still take flak from UC Fanboys, Wing Fanboys, and 00 Fanboys. I myself am in NONE of those categories. I have respect for ALL of Gundam with the exception of SEED Destiny, G-Saviour, and....*gulp* DOOZY BOTS.... >_< I'm not trying to start a flame war. I'm only checking to see if you're a real SEED Destiny fan or a Fanboy who denies the flaws =)
Gundam SEED, yes was pretty good. But Gundam SEED Destiny's flaws are UNDENIABLE. I've watched SEED Destiny over 30 times now and know ALL of it's flaws. I'm not trying to FORCE TO to dislike Gundam SEED/Destiny AT ALL, HELL THE FUCK NO. What I'm merely checking is to make sure you're well aware of SEED Destiny's MAJOR FLAWS and have Accepted Them for what they are and yet continue to be a fan. P.S. Just cuz my avatar is Turn A don't mean shit. I just liked that pic of Turn A, that's all. XD
What's your point? And I think that a 100% Turn A is just a fantasy, because I never saw it destroy the world, but it did destroy Turn X(along with it). Turn A will forever remain 5% because it's pilot just sucks.
@AngelBaby4U100 bulldozed but no scratch, still... I know this is an anime series but, sometimes it has to have a realistic touch..seed's half bad, gsd is nowhere better than gs, maybe if they made shinn the lead protagonist until the end and kira as an assisting legend, just like dante in devil may cry 4
Athrun hit shinn so hard his spirit left his body lol
This is an epic battle, if not one of the best in Gundam History.
Shows how Great Kira´s skills are. Shows how Athrun is merciless in Seed. Shows how Rey can use the DRAGOON system and shows how Shinn cant beat Kira nor Athrun.

I agree though, They went a step too far with it though.
@opt999 bad news, no movie for seed but there is going to be a remastered version of the series
athrun : the best melee since seed.
1. abbyss gundam : hands and legs are laser knives. even the plane mode is sword missile
2. savior gundam : athrun tryna be ranger mid, but keeps using swords.
3. justice gundam : savior but more melee now.
4. infinite justice : hands, legs, shield, backpack, are swords.

the song name is "A" from Dance Dance Revolution, you may search on youtube.
@TheAnimeOverviewer actually, all of turn-A's skills are now garbage, thanks to 00 Quanta, it can also teleport not just in the battlefield but in different kind of planets, if I ever pilot turn-A, I'd never mess with 00Q because I don't want my nanomachines from my moonlight butterfly to be assimilated by ELS

今更で悪いがガンダムSEEDではないぞ
ガンダムSEEDDESTINYだ
@AngelBaby4U100 ever watched gundam 00 and its movie?
@zeakchi I definetly agree with you on that part, it could have been better but if you look at this battle for what it is and try to avoid thinking about the reused footage, its still a huge battle and one of the best, It is definetly not the best in the world, No way.

I kind of agree because Kira said to Rei that his life is his own and then beam spammed him to submission.
Hey Shinn, if you want to catch Athrun's Justice's beam saber with Destiny's palm, you should learn it first from Domon or Master Asia. LOL
@AngelBaby4U100 how about 00 Qan[T], which is now recognized as the most powerful gundam in existence dethroning turn-A gundam
@SilverWorldEnter The music was the best part. It really pisses me off cause both had potential to be so much better. All the small things were done so perfectly and realistically, like controls, artillery, soldiers, etc, but then the Main characters and their MSs are border line super robot and follow no logic. they hired people to advise them and tell them about real current military technology, and they blew it.
@BlitzkriegOmega how could that be possible if 00R can quantize huh?
have you read 00R's features?
technically Turn-A gundam can wipe out all machinery or something like that so i guess that makes it the most powerful gundam in terms of it just makes everything else turn to dust(or sand i dont remember)
@DynastyGuy no, fact is, the movie will never happen...the remastered version of seed will be in HD settings just like gundam 00(my personal favorite0
@knight2battle poor shinn, if he has just got the right plot, he would never be like that...
good thing gundam 00 changed my life and perspective of watching gundam series...
I would definetly make another Season to finish it off properly. I think that the way Destiny ended was great, a new season would be phenomenal though :)
Did you get your wish?
Ah poor Shinn fans.
We stuck with SEED Destiny the whole way
And got THIS in return.
放送当時は気になってなかったけど戦闘シーンって使い回しなんだ
レジェンドとストフリとかフリーダムとプロビデンスの時と同じだよね
ディステニーとジャスティスとかも
Close range combat shows more skill after all.
Amuro vs Char: in CCA The beam saber duel turned into a wrestling match after being disarmed of their beam saber.EPIC

@flamingpoodleofdoom I think you're talking about Zeta Gundam.
@narutoman876 Good...Btw what did you think about Destinym if I may ask? Im just interested
lol i thought that was so friggin cool how kira and rey were having a dragoon fight.
Infinite Justice ROCKS!! The best Gundam there ever is!
@oyametalicusII
i think what the director want to make to gundam seed destiny is to make new character to lead the story (shin)but beside that make viewers waiting the real hero (kira) comeback again..like people say hero not always win earlier because if hero win earlier the story wil become not interesting.....

The excessive use of recycled animation was the only thing that brought SEED's quality down towards the end. Do you have a source confirming the movie is completely dead?
shit is prty raw. isnt this the song "A" off a DDR?
it's frustrating looking for Gundam SEED on youtube because 90% of the results give me Gundam SEED Destiny and it's not what I'm looking for....however this video is awesome. And I love the DDR song too. Props.
@SilverWorldEnter
Lol Wow this is the best stock footage battle I've ever seen.
Can someone tell me which Gundam series it was that had something like souls inside the Gundam?
It was on Adult Swim, I think in 2001-04 ish---I remember watching it when I was 8 or 10.
@oyametalicusII Isn't that what I just said? Give us all original battle animation in the HD settings of 00 or Unicorn with none of it recycled?
@AbsoluteZer092
Seeing how the whole of the series refuses to develop his character and make him look bad so the old characters, while bland, can look good, that isn't surprising.
The Justice Rules and Melee Combat
@AngelBaby4U100 ohh okay, I'll not argue with you anymore...
gundam-wise I also think strike freedom is one of the best, but my only complaint is, the story made it a spoiled brat, I mean..not a scratch strike freedom, really?
thats what happens when a grunt takes on an OG
How many of you would make a different ending to Destiny, or a third season if you were the maker of this?
@oyametalicusII Where did you hear this? I know the movie was on indefinite hiatus due to Chiaki Morosawa's cancer illness, but I have yet to hear about anything that said it was right out cancelled. Where did you hear about this remastered series? You're not talking about the compilation movies that are already out are you? Or is this something completely brand new?
I love Gundam Seed Destiny! I'd like to see Shin kick some more ass though...
i don't know why the musicsbare A and AAA
My point being was only Spec wise..'m not a fan of Turn-A just saying wat it COULD do given the right situation and the right pilot not trying to knock down anyone cuz personally my favorite is within a different gundam series lol Turn-A is merely a fantasy as you stated
@Ryan3d I will only say this once, I never said that it was the best FINAL BATTLE. I said that it was an epic battle and one of the best in Gundam History, Where do you see me saying Final Battle?...
@ZexionOfTheDark
Well, when you make a character a badguy to make another look good, then that's what happens
how many episodes are in this series, I know it was popular but i cant seem to find it for shit.
Actually, you're slightly off with the Japan part:
Gundam SEED; yes it was popular in Japan, but Gundam SEED Destiny was NOT Popular in Japan.
Gundam SEED OUTSIDE of Japan most notably did EXCEEDINGLY WELL in Europe; the UK in particular
It's like Gundam Wing is to the US as Gundam SEED is to the UK
Gundam SEED & SEED Destiny did AMAZINGLY well in the UK, but in Japan only the ORIGINAL SEED did extremely well, SEED Destiny did not get received well in Japan and was THRASHED COMPLETELY in the USA
@oyametalicus but Strike freedom burts out of 00-raiser's stomach afterwards =3
Yes I do know about the flaws, It uses the same footage over and over and over again and some fight scenes definetly get the shit end of the stick in that matter. I know all about Fukuda being a fan of Winged Gundams, Hence why most Mobile suits in Gundam Seed Destiny have some sort of wing mechanism.
Im a fan of Gundam Seed/Destiny mainly because of the characters, its more emotional and personal than most Gundam shows. I agree though, Destiny had many flaws, Mostly how everybody survived.
Athrin beat shin so bad his spirit left his body
wat episode is this
@SilverWorldEnter It started of ok, but went to shit fast, the director let the fans tell him what to do, and his wife doing whatever the fuck she wanted. Did you know she wrote Cagalli's character into shit because she taught Fukuda had a crush on her VA. There's a lot more petty shit like that behind the scenes. It was a hack job, filled with melodramatic shit that only women would like. Kira became a perfect aimbot and everyone suddenly sucked. As hard as it is to say, I did enjoy SEED.
@opt999 the attitude was good, it just needs more development...
I see, you're not familiar with devil may cry 4, where dante(the original lead) passed the torch to nero(the new guy)
kinda fun how athrun is beating shin in seed mode when he isn't xD
@narutoman876 Kira pawned some ass with "No Skill" that sound awesome wasn't it? lol
@opt999 but kira should have passed the torch to shinn and served as shinn's mentor, fukuda's a stupid one
What's the track?
hey is shinn good ? or bad ?
@SilverWorldEnter One of the best? I'm sorry, but I can't get over the fact that almost the entire fight is stock footage.
funny how destiny's leg can make that big explosion. maybe they put the engine there....
@knight2battle
Also "Infinite Justice" is a totally badass name.
Though I still think Strike Freedom is a cooler MS.
Wow... LUna has some guts fighting against someone that can trigger the SEED (aka athrun)
ukh i love gundam Seed/SD . . .
the song also good :D
Whats the music from?
Seed Destiny died when the creator decided to abandon Shinn and bring back Kira along with Authrn to make them the protagonist. Killed the story, especially how Shinn should had shot down and killed both of them. In the end Destiny didnt live up to how i thought it would thanks to a woman.
@flamingpoodleofdoom
that would be gundam wing
Alrighty then! =)
I applaud you, dude!
Being a REAL fan of Gundam SEED Destiny is a REALLY DIFFICULT THING TO DO with the amount of hatred towards that series in existance, and if you can do it, then GOOD FOR YOU!! ;-)
Yeah, I agree with you. Shinn definetly is a phenomenal Pilot and among the best in Gundam Universe but he really cant beat Kira nor Athrun.
Also, I really dont have Shinn at all, I actually like him a lot as a character and a pilot.He is definetly on an equal playing field with Kira and Athrun.
This is the best reused stock-footage fight evah.
/sarcasm
@SilverWorldEnter Honestly I don't remember who you are or anything, so it's not personal
@RogueFeathers the reason why kira beam spams is because of the stupid directors reusing the same shit over and over and again. im sure he is much more than that,
esa canciones es A sale en DANCE DANCE REVOLUTION
actually, seed destiny did well in japan too, but was not as good as seed. and in the USA almost everyone thrashed both seed and seed destiny and it got completely out of hand considering comments i read from gundam fans.

Being a REAL fan of Gundam SEED Destiny is VERY DIFFICULT, because REAL fans who acknowledge SEED Destiny's flaws but still enjoy it anyway still take flak from UC Fanboys, Wing Fanboys, and 00 Fanboys. I myself am in NONE of those categories. I have respect for ALL of Gundam with the exception of SEED Destiny, G-Saviour, and....*gulp* DOOZY BOTS.... >_<
I'm not trying to start a flame war. I'm only checking to see if you're a real SEED Destiny fan or a Fanboy who denies the flaws =)
This is from seed destiny ,not seed
it would've been better if you kept the original audio with all the dialogues and what not
Twelve years and I'm still mad.
we won in the end if you’re still alive lol
@oyametalicus Double X eats 00-Raiser....Turn A eats all, lol
Gundam SEED, yes was pretty good. But Gundam SEED Destiny's flaws are UNDENIABLE.
I've watched SEED Destiny over 30 times now and know ALL of it's flaws.
I'm not trying to FORCE TO to dislike Gundam SEED/Destiny AT ALL, HELL THE FUCK NO. What I'm merely checking is to make sure you're well aware of SEED Destiny's MAJOR FLAWS and have Accepted Them for what they are and yet continue to be a fan.
P.S. Just cuz my avatar is Turn A don't mean shit. I just liked that pic of Turn A, that's all. XD
What's your point? And I think that a 100% Turn A is just a fantasy, because I never saw it destroy the world, but it did destroy Turn X(along with it). Turn A will forever remain 5% because it's pilot just sucks.
@AngelBaby4U100 bulldozed but no scratch, still...
I know this is an anime series but, sometimes it has to have a realistic touch..seed's half bad, gsd is nowhere better than gs, maybe if they made shinn the lead protagonist until the end and kira as an assisting legend, just like dante in devil may cry 4
nonononnoo, it just shows shin that he is the not main charactor actually lol....
well Shinn got dismembered by Athrun
