Yeah, the name makes no sense to me either. I'm hoping they explain it in the series.
But I'm actually rather impressed that you're nearly finished with the original series, because I just could not get through it. I think I was only able to watch the first ten or fifteen episodes before I gave up on it.
If you're wondering about the other shows in the Gundam franchise though, I strongly recommend The Witch from Mercury. Gundam SEED is also really good. It starts out a lot like the original Gundam series, but the characters are quite good. Another one I recommend is Iron Blooded Orphans. That one is not what I would call a light series, but it's definitely one of the better shows in the franchise that I've seen.
Funny you should mention the Gundam franchise. I was just about to finish the original series today. This will be the conclusion of my first Gundam experience.
I have no clue how the other series work, so I'm guessing they're trying to break that formula? I'm not informed enough to have an opinion on the matter. But what's up with that weird freakin' name???
Call it karma. Call it luck. Me, I just don't give a... BOUNCE!

The greatest fear is that of the unknown.
