646f9e108c In a world where Gundam is a very popular T.V. show, Sei Iori wishes to be just like his father, who was a Gunpla champion years ago, unfortunately, Sei only has skill in building Gunpla, but once he meets a boy named Reiji, who has the ability to fight with his Gunpla, everything changes. Will they be able to make it to the top just like his father did?
This was the second Gundam series I had watched, the first being IBO (Iron Blooded Orphans) which was great but a little too gritty. So I asked my Gundam obsessed friend who has watched every show what to watch next and he recommended Build Fighters to me which I watched constantly until I finished it. It Kept me hooked from start to finish with spectacular battles not using CGI which is a pet peeve of mine. People say the show is just a big commercial for the model kits, Which it is and it works very effectively(Now owning 4 myself) but it is also so much more. All the characters are extremely memorable and the sad ending is very bitter sweet in a great way. Reiji Is the most memorable character in recent memory and his Chemistry with Sei Lori is ecstatic. While The plot isn't As deep as Most wanted it to be I thought it was perfect for a show about plastic models battling using a magic particle. In conclusion I think it is a show everybody should attempt to watch it whether or not It clicks with you. It is truly a great show and greatly underrated in the day and age of Death Note,Full metal alchemist etc. Would Highly recommend
