Rating: Summary: Platoon meets Gundam Review: This is one of my favorite Gundam sagas...the 08th MS (Mobile Suit) team! Taking place primarily on Earth in the thick of the Jungle to the deepest desert. This is as close anime will come to make you feel what war is like...Tragedy,love,hate,hopelessness,triumph...it's all here! Shiro,Sanders,Karen,Michel and Eledore bring life in the military during wartime to life. From their emotions during the heat of battle,to personal conflicts during R & R. You also get the classic plot twists, alterior motives on the part of both militaries and so much more. Oh yeah...the animation is pretty sweet too. When I sat through the 08th MS team this last weekend, I watched the whole thing from episode 1 to the end. Its gripping and enthralling...you WILL love it even if you're not an anime fan. Much deeper than Gundm Wing will ever be...like I say in the title...think Platoon or Apocalypse Now meets Gundam Wing. With that description,you only scratch the surfce of the 0th team.

I loved volume.1 I can't wait to volume.2 comes out in September. This Volume is well worth the [money].
Rating: Summary: A Series Not To Be Missed Review: This is one of the best Gundam series ever.It goes right along with the 0079 One Year War , so if you know Mobile Suit Gundam You know the basic plot.The series itself has great animation,and is completly the opposite of Gundam Wing ,which had very dry animation.Also very different from Gundam Wing (the reason i'm comparing the two is because they were made around the same time)is that 8th MS Team has lots of action with minimal political talk, making sure you get your fix in both catagories.Over all this is an awsome Gundam and Anime series in general with having something for everyone.
Rating: Summary: An Action Packed Gundam Episodes Review: This is the best Gundam saga of all time.Because it has action,fighting,major Gundam war,its funny,good drama,a well written adult-oriented story line.Plus its better than the Cartoon Network version because its uncut!This volune of Gundam is the best I thank any Gundam fan should get this one!I loved this DVD volume of Mobile Suit Gundam the 08th Ms Team.
Rating: Summary: One of the best gundam series ever Review: this is the best gundam series ever. It has great animation and did not drag out like gundam wing did. gundam wing went for ever and ever. by the end it was pointless. This is only 15 episodes long which is great. it is short but sweet. i highly reccommed this gundam series.
Rating: Summary: AWESOME Review: this movie is a great addition to any gundam fans collection its a must have.i enjoyed every minute of it.
Rating: Summary: A tradition of excellent Gundam sagas continues... Review: This OAV series is set during the final days of the One Year War. Ensign Shiro Amada is a young space-born Federal officer given his first command, the 08th Mobile Suit Team of the Kojima Battalion, and quickly gets embroiled in fierce battles with Zeon forces in the rainforests of Southeast Asia. While there, they encounter formidable resistance from enemy Zakus, negotiate with wily guerrilla warriors, and discover a secret base that harbors a weapon that could bring down the Earth forces for good. It doesn't help that the first Zeon soldier Shiro meets face-to-face is the lovely, intelligent Ayna Saharin. Can he reconcile his feelings for her and earn the trust of the soldiers of the 08th MS Team? Or will a rusting hulk of metal be his epitaph in this sweltering jungle battleground?It's kinda hard to review this because there is nothing to bash or make fun of. After viewing the entire Gundam: 08th MS Team series I can easily say it is one of the greatest anime titles I have ever seen. This is saying a lot because have a history of rating anime very harshly. It stays true to the excellence attributed to the name Gundam and even surpasses it. It effectively mimics the idea of having "good people" on both sides of war we saw in 0080, but emphasizes it more since romance is involved. However, all you action junkies out there don't get the wrong idea. This has action scenes that put GW to shame. You see Gundam is really about intelligent fighting then being flashy a la GW. 08th MS Team revisits this theory and puts it to good use. I swear, every episode gets better and better. By the time you reach the climatic Shuddering Mountain episodes you will be blown away. A classic. Do not miss this. I can't think of any conceivable reason why I would rate it any lower than 5 stars (And the catchy end credits theme doesn't hurt either =).
Rating: Summary: Quite possibly the best Gundam ever Review: This series is quite possibly the best Gundam ever. It has good music, well-exectuted action sequences, and an instanly likeable story. The seeds of love between Shiro and Aina are planted firmly in episode 1, though you don't get to see them take root and grow on this volume. The only problem I encountered were a few lapses in the dub acting, but that just makes the characters seem more human. This DVD is well worth the money!
Rating: Summary: For a BIG MECHA FAN.... Review: This was a great video. The previews were great, and, the Audio wasn't distorted, like alot of Mecha you'll find nowa-days. EP1-War For Two- In this, Shiro Amada, A Insign in the Federation Fleet of MS fighters, has been shipped to Earth to Battle the forces on land. However, before Entering Earth's Atmosphere, the crew inside the transport spot a battle. Viggorous to fight, Shiro requests to fight, "With a Ball?" After an emmence battle, Shiro is fighting just to stay alive, with the help of "a Girl Zeik Soldier?" EP2- Gundams In The Jungle- Shiro hasn't even got the time to remember his crews names when he is sent out on his first mission. After a poor show of fighting, Shiro's skill as a fighter is under attack. What's this?, A Gurilla gil Skinny-dipping? Shiro is seperated from his Team, and realizes how hard it is to live on Earth, and Command a MSTeam. EP3-Time Limit On Trust-The 08TH Team has to break through the enemy's hilltop forces to complete this mission, and Shiro hot-headly takes the rear appoach to surround it... Man, just what he needs, when his team is counting on him, he's captured by that guerilla-girl again...
