I don't have a problem with those, but 00S2 was trainwreck territory. Which is why I referred to him as trolling.

And I like Gunbuster and Diebuster just about equally.

There's only one anime I can think of that I actively wish hadn't happened, and that was the third Kenshin special, Reflections.

00S2 is not nearly as bad as people make it out to be. For one thing, it still had more consistently well-done animation than the majority of Gundam series. It also further progressed a storyline established in the beginning and simultaneously supported by sidestory manga. There's a distinct difference between disliking the way something turns out, and something being legitimately poorly done. Regardless of whether or not I liked where it went, 00S2 was a consistent story link between S1 and the movie. I don't have to be trolling to say that, and I don't think it's impossible to step aside and look at something with a hint of objectivity. Did I like what 00S2 did? No. Did I agree with everything it did? No. Do I think it was in any way the worst series that Gundam has given us? Not a chance, I'd still rate it higher than average for the reasons I gave -- it bridged the first season and the movie with a story that progressed and was supported, and it gave us some excellent and varied mechanical designs. Couple that with some pretty interesting side-characters and I still think 00 is one of the overall stronger entries in Gundam, and in my own opinion, overall better than Zeta ever was.

Or do you believe Mr Yrin is trolling again?

I think most people assume you're trolling because you usually present your arguments with the subtext of "and you're an idiot". There's a lot of vitriol in your word choice in that original post, for instance. When you present your argument like you just did though, I doubt anyone would have a problem with it. I may disagree, but I don't think you're wrong for liking 00 in its entirety.

Well I am a pretty vitriolic person. When I brush my teeth, for example, I must immediately replace my toothbrush as I have already melted it with my acidic saliva.

No, but I might wear power armor.

So you're saying you're more of a Alien Queen/Ripley clone from Resurrection, than an actual xenomorph?

I'm pretty sure he was referring to himself as one of those Marines from that comical grimdark setting you might have heard about.
