SEED was mediocre not the best, and GSD is just terrible. The two just seem really good, but if you have watched a great gundam series recently then all of the faults of both are going to be pretty visible. Athrun go watch Z Gundam if you want to see the best. Oh, and just because I can rant in this topic: DIE FUKUDA! DIE! GO HANG YOURSELF AND DO THE WORLD THE GOOD YOU NEVER GAVE GSD!
