With a live-action Netflix movie on the way, incoming fans are wondering… Do you start from the very beginning? Or wait, maybe start with the prequel show? Hold on, what about a more recent series?Įven when you decide where you want to start watching Gundam, figuring out how you’re going to watch it is a little trickier. Since then the franchise has only grown bigger and bigger, to the point it’s difficult for newcomers to even figure out where to begin with Gundam. Fans in America mostly got their first look at the franchise with Gundam Wing when it aired on Cartoon Network’s Toonami in 2000.
Running since 1979 in Japan, the original series quickly took on a life of its own, spawning spinoffs, films, manga, and much more.
