Pretty much my point of view too. Cagalli took a backseat towards Athrun in GSD with Meyrin taking over and from memory Cagalli practically handed Athrun over to Meyrin halfway through the series. I was sort of dissapointed about it but Meyrin seems alright and we can only hope she'll be more decisive than Cagalli was in Destiny.

I saw a joke plot summary somewhere of what a sequel to GSD would be and it went something like this.

- Series starts.
- Lots of people die. (Heliopolis/Junia 7 crash)
- Athrun gets suckered by the bad guys.
- Kira kicks ass in fights.
- Kira's suit is destroyed and he is presumed dead.
- Kira returns in tricked out new Gundam.
- Cue T.M. Revolution song.
- Kira wtf owns hordes of enemy suits in said tricked out Gundam.
- Athrun sees the error of his ways and jumps ship.
- Clyne Faction fight against everyone to save the day.
- End series.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

My question is : Do all the Gundam series relate to each other as one long film, or they are actually saperate series with their own story line and characters? Whether they relate or not, where should I start?

I'm no expert about it, but I think there are either two or three universes that all the series are based on, or alternate timelines of a series.

Cosmic, Universal and After Colony I think.

I've only watched Gundam Wing, Seed and Seed Destiny, but Wing and Seed are self contained series you could watch without ever having watched any before. It doesn't really matter where you start from as long as its from the beginning of a series. If you can get ahold of the dubbed version of Seed I would suggest that, the dub is excellent and the characters are a lot more likable than the ones in Wing.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

Good: Very stylish MS, red is always cool.
Bad: Athrun only used it to shot here, fly there, pretty much avoid Sting and the Chaos all the time (when he had more than enough skill to take him out) and then finally getting destroyed by the Freedom.

Confused Athrun = sucky Athrun.

To be fair the way that he got taken out was fucking awesome. All that was left was the core and the rest of it just sort of trailed away.
