SD Gundam
Though
Gundam is usually known for its serious storylines and
drama, it also has a ridiculous comedic side as well. Beginning
in 1988, SD ('super deformed') Gundam features
misproportioned characters and mobile suits running around in all
sorts of comedic misadventures. These comedic sequences range from
parodies of events from the regular series to such oddities as Gundam
hotels and SD Olympics. The first SD release consisted of SD
Gundam Mk I-V, which were all released between 1988 and 1990.
The SD craze led to many more releases, including manga and the
continuing series of games across various consoles. Though the last
SD release was in 1993, Bandai is revived the franchise with the 2003 children's
TV series SD Gundam Force. The previous SD releases are
not currently available in the U.S. and are not likely to be released.
