Origanally people said that GUndam seed was 52 episodes long, why is it only 50 now? Did they shorten it or something??? Or were they just wrong??

I hear it was shortened to 50 to create interest for a Gundam Seed II sometime in 2004. Treat this with a pinch of salt until you hear it from a reliable/official source.

52 sounds right cos normally for anime one season lasts for 13 eps, but who knows...

No, you guys got misinformed, it was really 50 eps. From the start of the series to the end is about 52 weeks, but 2 of the weeks there weren't any Gundam Seed, that's why.

Ah, looks like that's right. I checked animenfo.com and it says that there were only 50 episodes. So now we know. Gundam episodes always run for strange numbers of episodes anyway, it would seem.
