Mobile Suit Gundam: Iron-Blooded Orphans – Season 1 [Blu-ray]

This is my first Gundam series to watch and so far it’s pretty good. The strongest parts are the story and action. At first things are hard to get a hold of because there’s so many company names and people that you can’t remember and you can’t tell who is who, but as you get used to everything it becomes easier. As much as I’m typically not a fan of “kid heroes” because I feel it is a little ridiculous, with this one specifically, it works given the lives they’ve lived and the things and situations they’ve been faced with. These aren’t you average kids, they are young people that were forced to grow up and were never actually “kids”. The background animation is very well done, and the animation as a whole is great with one exception and it’s probably my person biggest issue. The character animation just looks weird to me, mainly certain characters hair. Orga, Mikazuki, Kudelia the three biggest characters all have the most notable examples. Mikazuki with his sharp point, Orga with a similar sharp point both of which just look weird and then Kudelia has just has (and they all have this but it’s most noticeable on her) very stiff hair with no movement. I don’t mind the “crazy anime hair” to an extent, for instance Eugene and Akihiro look ok. Anyway other than the character animation which wasn’t a huge thing it was fine. The characters are mostly good with the weakest being the central figure Mikazuki. He just has a dull personality, and he isn’t very interesting. I love Eugene(and his Eren Jeager, Kirito voice by Bryce Papenbrook), Akihiro, Orga, Shino, Buscuit, Ride, Lafter, Naze, and Atra. Atra’s voice actor Cassandra Lee Morris fits her really well. She does great with the cute, sweet, kind girls like Atra as well as K-On Ritsu, but not as good with mean spirited characters like Taiga from Toradora. I wasn’t a huge fan of Kudelia either, but I’m not exactly sure why. I am surprised they they gave this a “Ma” rating because it’s really just has mild language that isn’t too strong or frequent and the violence isn’t that strong either compared to other anime I’ve seen that gets TV14. So this one seems like a TV14 to me.

First, the physical blu-ray. The series comes in a standard blu-ray case with each disc having its own disc-holder (see pictures). When played, you're met with a crisp and clean picture and solid smooth animation. In fact, I'd say Gundam has some of the best animations I've seen in a show for a while now. See the pictures for glimpses of the playback, there might be some odd coloration but that's due to my camera and not the actual picture.Now for the series itself. This is a 'darker' anime that still manages to retain its heart. It follows a group of child soldiers on their mission to help a political activist in their mission to reach Earth. We see bits of a fully colonized Mars (where most of our characters are from) in open revolt, along with space pirates and other space colonies along the way to Earth and its four economic blocks. The series touches on some surprisingly adult themes of child labor, slavery, soldiers for hire, the lack of law inside fringe spaces, government espionage, and a truly Machiavellian plot worth of Littlefinger. Throughout it all is the bond and relationship between Mikazuki and Orga. Both of whom had very hard lives in the poverty-ridden lands of Mars. We see Orga grow into a leader at such a young age and all that it comes with. We see Mikazuki as the 'cold-blooded' child soldier, a surprisingly nuanced character who grows throughout the series in subtle ways.The show doesn't shy away from death and the cost of war. As well as its effects on the young. All in all, a series worth the money and a great starting point for any new Gundam fans out there.

Gundam has always been one for showing the horrors of war and corruption. This series hits aggressively. The casing and the box set came in great condition and super fast.

it was a good

love the series and the gundams like how they dont have lazor swords in this one

I was very happy to get this edition of the first season of Iron Blooded Orphans. The whole package is great quality! The box comes in a nice plastic sleeve that protects it while making it look nice. The Card board holder for the Blu-ray boxes is really strong and finished with a polished design that makes it sturdy and great to hold your Blu-ray boxes in (there is even room for season 2 when that comes out). The art book is a cool little added bonus and the Model was fantastic! It’s a high grade model and the metallic injection style really was a nice touch. All in all, I highly recommend getting this if you’re a fan of Gundam.

This set comes with part one and part two of season 1 for Gundam ibo in both bluray and DVD. It also comes with 2 background pieces 1 that's just for if you want to use it as a background and the other is to fill the space in the collectible box saved for season 2. That case also has the collectible art booklet inside (paperback). And one of the best parts is this kit comes with a fumigation exclusive barbatos in a really nice color.

Great value for the gan and a collector.First you get the full season 1 on Bluray and a Special release kit that is only included in this set. And more.I haven't really seen any of these types of releases for along time. Worth it. If you are a fan of the series.Which if you haven't seen. Is a new fresh take for the Gundam franchise. Give it a watch and you'll be pleasantly surprised.

This is a great collector set for any fan of Gundam. I have not watched any anime series for a long time but I was a fan of Gundam wing back in the day so I thought I would give this series a chance and it does not disappoint! Story is great you feel connected to the characters and the audio and video quality are phenomenal! The box set come with a plastic protector which is very useful. The box include the blu ray and DVD with room for season 2 and it has a collectible Barbatos model which looks cool but I didn’t bother building it.

Decent price and fast shipping

一番重要な事を書きますが、プレステ４とプレステ３で視聴可能です。そしてコレはMobile Suit Gundam: Iron-Blooded Orphans - Season One [Blu-ray]のレビューです。他のガンダム海外版ブルーレイレビューが混じっていたので、ここを明確にしておきます。音声は日本語と英語選択出来ますが、英語字幕は消す事は出来ません。しかしながら、日本版ブルーレイに比べて値段が遥かに安いですし、ケース一つに一期のディスクがぜんぶ収納されていて場所を取らないのも良いですね。ここからは個人的な作品の感想になりますが、一期だけ観れば鉄血のオルフェンズは神アニメだと思います。この一期全体に漂う独特の悲壮感が素晴らしいですし、個人的に三日月はガンダム作品の中で一番好きな主人公だったりします。話の引きも上手く、一話観ればドップリハマる事でしょう。人物描写やドラマ部分も描き方が凄く丁寧なので、ガンダムを全然観たことない人でも安心して楽しめると思います。ただ二期が凄く残念です。まだ視聴してない人向けにネタバレあまりしないように書きますが、一期で狡猾だったキャラがただのお馬鹿になっていたり、明らかに死んでた敵が平然と生きてるくせに主人公勢のキャラは普通に死ぬし、ラスボス不在だし、色々酷いです。二期は監督を変えたのが大失敗だったと思うので、二期だけまた作り直して欲しいですね。まあ迷場面「止まるんじゃねえぞ」で、人々の印象に残ったという点で、二期にもまだ少しだけ救いがあるのかもしれませんが。とりあえず一期だけ見て、「オレ達の戦いはこれからだ！」という打ち切りハッピーエンドで終わった事にして、二期を視聴しないのをオススメします。

Produit intact, sous blister, aucun problème concernant l'état général et livraison rapide.Après, le film, faut aimer le genre :)mais ça reste une référence, amha
