I feel like Shinn should have fought Neo instead of Kira in Destiny.

Anon07/01/26, 16:04No.23927883

I don't like how he got his soul sucked out in FREEDOM

Anon07/01/26, 16:10No.23927897

tragic victim of lobotomy

Started off strong, then an inability to move beyond SEED derailed the plot.

Anon07/01/26, 16:54No.23927950

Don't know how feel.

He's a cool protagonist that got robbed of his main series. Freedom sorta made up for it by making destiny super fucking busted

Shinn it to win it

Best boy with best Gundam and best girl.

he's okay shame Freedom lobotomized him

I have no really strong feelings about him (I'd probably say my favorite character in the series is Murrue or Athrrun btw), he's not really like Kamille (inasmuch as Destiny is a Zeta retread) at all except maybe they kind of have a temper, but even more than that I get the sense the staff really want you to think of him as a somewhat brainless follow or at least a permanent apprentice. Maybe this has to do with the whole mentor-mentee path Freedom went down and something about younger people looking up to older people. But goddamn I'm just led to believe the kid can't think for himself after seeing Freedom and him buying into FAITH. Except maybe his compassion for Stellar although that's more just him thinking with his dick. Since, though, he's pretty much the only one who actually loved a druggie in the series except for the druggies themselves, at least that shows he's got a lot of good will for someone everyone else just wrote off. His hero moments are fucking great though, and the core fighter into the mountain and taking down the Destroys were top tier moments that serve to show his determination and resolve. And him taking down Auel was peak too.

Fun protagonist that didn't reach his full potential because got sidelined for more Kira and Freedom. Pretty good fighter in the movie though.

I always liked Shinn and felt like he got kind of fucked in Destiny's second half, which might've been the point but it wasn't executed well enough due to the protagonist swap. Shinn should've stayed the MC and the Special Editions should've focused on Kira or Athrun's PoV instead.I do like how Freedom confirmed Athrun was a shitty mentor for him, which was absolutely intentional from Durandal's point of view.He also got my favorite suits in Destiny; the Impulse takes my favorite aspects of both the Strike and even the Victory in aspects, which were already some of my favorite suits in the franchise. Even the Destiny, with its practical flaws is a decent take on the old "Perfect" Strike loadout that Seeed hinted at (and did in the old SD figure) before the Remaster made it have an official design.Once Athrun started to get his "harem" going and the will-they-won't-they with Cagalli, I genuinely thought that Shinn was going to end up in a relationship with Cagalli in some form which would've been quite interesting from a character direction.

Fly nigga won the game, everyone else is just clowning.

He's like a retarded Kamille.

Anon07/03/26, 03:32No.23929627

If not for Judau existing, easily would be the worst Gundam protagonist (being generous). Permaseething retard that lashes out at everyone and everything and just follows whoever gives the most recent flowery speech no matter how nonsensical. Also blames others for the death of his waifu when he's the one who drowned her Plus the Destiny and Impulse are lame. Never bothered to look into the supposed technology behind it but that laser the Minerva shot that would fully charge his shit in 1 second seemed like some kind of bullshit

became a Kira larper just to be likable to the fan base

Anon07/08/26, 21:30No.23936198

Started off okay and then devolved into an extremely retarded manchild that was one of most insufferable Gundam characters to see on screen. The fact that he's plastered on promotional material like he's the prptagonist is hilarious since Athrun feels like the protagonist for the first half of Destiny, and by the second half Shinn is just a straight up antagonist.I'm benching the fuck out of this dickhead and his forced redhead girlfriend thats a terrible sister whenever I play a SRW with Destiny.

While we're on the subject, how do you all feel about Athrun in Freedom?

Anon07/09/26, 04:53No.23936556

Shinn is my boyI thought he deserved better when Destiny aired, and I grew to like him more as the years went by

Great character all around. Even the supposed "Character assassination" works well because it ties into his whole character arc. He's obsessed with power because he didn't have it to protect his sister, and that obsession is why he doesn't go against Durandal even after he's clearly uneasy when the Destiny Plan is revealed. Doing that would risk losing the power he's been given. He's a good kid who doesn't realize Durandal is grooming him to be a perfect soldier until the conflict is over.
