That’s like saying this is the best pile of shit in the cow pasture.

Cagalli was pretty good in SEED. Too bad the bitch writing Destiny couldn’t take her VA’s criticism and fucked up Cagalli’s character as a result.

LOL, do people still believe that never proved rumor? I did people ask straight-up for sources and they never delivered, whining about how they had OMG HEARD about it and calling me names for actually requesting proof of their accusations.

Oh, and “the bitch writing Destiny” aka Chiaki Morosawa has cancer and that’s why the scripts were late and sloppy. It’s not in good taste to refer to gravely ill people as “bitches” for things that may have not been even true, you see, and even if it WAS true it’s in pretty poor taste.  Then again I clearly remember selfish and whiny fans from the Gundam forums saying that Morosawa deserved her illness just because they didn’t like Destiny… if not outright stating that they wanted the woman DEAD for it.

Entitlement at its finest, I see.

As for the secret itself? Yeah, I agree. What other people see as “whining”, “chickification” and “idiocy” is actually character development. In GSD Cagalli is in for a freaking RUDE awakening because now she can’t solve everything via punching dudes and piloting mecha, so it’s LOGICAL that she’ll end up breaking down. And she then learned her lesson, became emotionally stronger, and decided to keep on rebuilding Orb and being its Queen. That takes balls, er, boobs. 

Stop making excuses for a shitty series. Gundam SEED Destiny is bad, period. A lot of other infamously crappy sci-fi projects like Star Trek V had a lot of factors working against it and that doesn’t change the fact that it’s, well, crap.

There’s character development and there’s character destruction. This is the latter. They took a once interesting (and probably one of SEED’s only characters that actually stood out) and simply made her suck. There’s no excusing that.

Also, that Gunota article states that she fell ill following Destiny, which is why the movie never came out. It states nothing about the television series.
