Hey losers. Here are the three OSTs to the anime, Mobile Suit Victory Gundam.
Score I (http://www.filefactory.com/file/39092a/)
Score II (http://www.filefactory.com/file/3f44c4)
Score III (http://www.filefactory.com/file/e6e6ae)

This Gundam series sure did suck ass, but the music was great. It's the SaGa Frontier 2 of anime. The style is classical-orchestral, as opposed to the usual symphonic style of most Gundams. There's a clear lack of good action themes, but the other themes are beautiful.

As the name implies, these are new rips, so they're different from the versions found in AthrunZero's Gundam Thread (Thread 38406). The problem with that version is that many of the songs had a snapping sound before playing. I decided to buy the CDs myself - worth it. They were ripped at WMA lossless quality and converted to mp3 at 256 kbps variable.

Also included are scans of the booklets for each score. Lastly, I used any English translations of the tracklist I could find. If you don't trust them to be accurate, you can use the following Japanese translations:
Score I (http://users.pandora.be/he-man/nfo/214/vgdamost1.txt)
Score II (http://users.pandora.be/he-man/nfo/214/vgdamost2.txt)
Score III (http://users.pandora.be/he-man/nfo/214/vgdamost3.txt)

That's that. No requests for reupload unless something is wrong with these links now (i.e. I can't download them myself). Don't even think of asking me to put them up on megaupload.

Enjoy.

So I guess that there are not many copies of the Victory Gundam series available because it sucked, right?

I can't tell if you're being sarcastic to imply that the series did not suck. In any case, to date the series is unlicensed in North America because it wasn't good enough to translate.

There was pointless and stupid nudity, ridiculous Gundam designs (motorcycles in space), weak character motivations for horrible actions, and a vast number of horrific deaths that just didn't fit with the atmosphere of the series. The heroes of the series were children, after all.

Still not convinced? Check out the Wikipedia entry for it. Even the director of the original Gundam series, Yoshiyuki Tomino, hated it before, during, and after V Gundams' creation. It's just a shame that the last chapter of the Universal Century series of Gundam made by Tomino was so lousy.

Then again, the New Translation remake of Zeta Gundam pretty eliminates anything that came after it, so I guess it's all moot.

eh, the zeta gundam trilogy was lacking and the ending wasn't much better than the original which was still lacking closure.
i haven't seen v gundam yet *still looking forward too* it can't be that bad can it?

51 episodes of the heroes getting their asses kicked (the word "Victory" is a very ironic title) and a 2 minute ending that makes no sense.

So what you are implying is that Victory Gundam is much worse than ZZ Gundam, right?

No I wasn't because I never mentioned having watched ZZ Gundam; you sort of filled that blank in for me.

Although I have seen ZZ Gundam and I will say that it was better lol. It made no sense at all, and it did a complete 180 with regard to the atmosphere of Z Gundam, but at least it was fun. Let me just say I enjoyed it.

I'm starting to get the sense that you people don't think (for those who have seen it) or don't want to believe (for those who have not) that V Gundam sucked. I'm not trying to start a fanboy debate here, so if anyone wants to comment on the merits of V Gundam, I won't get up your ass.

We can all agree that Gundam Seed sucked ass.

I have yet to meet a true gundam fan that liked that show, total rubbish.

The movie might redeem the series somehow maybe, but it will have to be the most amazing thing since chars counter attack, which I doubt.

Okay, this guy is trying to start a fanboy debate. Though it seems like fun, I'm not touching it.

Go nuts. :D

lol hey you started it, with the V hate :P

I havent seen V gundam so I cant say if I think its rubbish or not.

Gundam Seed on the other hand I have seen and the only people that like that are people that never watched Gundam before, but thats what it was for new fans, not us UC fanboys.

Still doesnt stop it from being trash though :P

Destiny was doing great for 10eps before they took a big dump on it, and brought back everyone else, the main character Shinn became a spare tool by the end of the show, it made me sick.

I dare anyone try to prove me wrong, I will destory you lol.

Not exactly. You see, the essence of fanboyism isn't just liking and following a series; you have to be a dick to everyone who disagrees with you. For me to be a fanboy, I have to say that everyone who likes V Gundam is stupid. I don't believe that. V Gundam sucks, not the people who like it.

Fanboys also have to take offense for negative comments made about series they like. That's stupid. Anybody can take offense for someone/thing else if they try hard enough. Adopting that train of thought, people would eventually take offense to everything. Thus, nothing could be said. Screw that.

If it were my call, all fanboys would be herded into a meat thresher, where their previously worthless flesh would be converted to a product I call Soylent Purple (purple because that's the most delicious colour).

NOOOOOOOOOOOO!

You're way to late for that. However, I will be uploading pretty much all the OSTs I've uploaded in the past sometime next year. Till then.

NONONONONONONONONONO.

How dumb can you get? I said no reuploads in the main post, and no reuploads in the post right before yours. RIGHT BEFORE YOURS!

The only exception I'll make is if someone who meets one of my requests in the requests section asks for a reupload. Fat chance of that happening.
