What the hell?! :o It's THE best Gundam series if you ask me. Make sure to watch the series before "A New Translation".

But that also knows you have no idea how Mineva Zabi is :p

^That's a great looking custom build! I have the original of that one. haha.

The name is familiar.. lol.

Omg, haha. Have you even been paying attention to the story of Gundam Unicorn? :p Audrey Burn is her alias, her real name is Mineva Lao Zabi.. She's the descendent of the Zabi family that was being the first Zeon war in "Mobile Suit Gundam". You should really watch all the older UC series if you ask me. Then you'd also better understand what's currently happening in Gundam Unicorn.

The story makes up for the old animation though. Also, Zeta Gundam looks great for such an old anime tbh. "Mobile Suit Gundam: A New Translation" is a remastered and reworked version of the series. Since it's a reworked version of the series I wouldn't watch it before watching the series. Several things in it are different and it's basically made for the fans who watched the series because they also left things out because the fans/watchers of the series would know how, for instance, the Hyaku Shiki got aboard the Argama. They don't show this in "A New Translation but they do in the series.

Also, it's a bummer though because now you won't fully understand Mineva Zabi and why she wants to stop the war. And the first scene if Bright in Gundam Unicorn also didn't do anything to you for that reason :p I'd really advice you to at least watch Zeta Gundam. You honestly won't regret it at all. You don't really need to watch the first series to understand Zeta Gundam either. Though not having seen the first series does take away the effect of the scene where Quattro Bajeena (Char) and Amuro meat each other again after 6 years.

^Very nice. Hadn't heard of it before. Though I'm going to stick with my Dutch supplier :p

That RX-93 Nu Gundam looks nice though I'm not a fan of the paintjob. It looks good though.

And that new Endless Waltz manga looks interesting as well.

    • UK nudity blockers are a looming privacy disaster, we must be able to see the source code

      Wow, this is some Iran, Cuba, China, Russia, North Korea-level citizen surveillance right there, the UK's government has gone totally mad. Power trip indeed, their politicians are totally out of control about this issue. They're starting to cross limits I wouldn't have imagined, to be honest. British people, fight this, your privacy and freedoms are in danger. Vote this government out of power.
    • Nintendo unveils The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time remake, and it's out this year

      By LoneWolfSL · Posted

      Nintendo unveils The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time remake, and it's out this year by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Confirming many rumors, Nintendo officially announced a remake of the classic The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time, the very first game in the series that offered a 3D experience to fans. Unlike previous remasters and re-releases, the originally 1998-released fantasy adventure game is being remade from the ground up for the Nintendo Switch 2 console this time. "The Nintendo 64 classic returns for a new generation in 2026, reborn exclusively for Nintendo Switch 2," said the company about today's announcement. While Nintendo didn't go into much detail about the project, other than confirming its existence, we did get a small teaser trailer at the Direct presentation today. Catch the footage below: With a tapestry as the backdrop, the first half of the trailer tells the tale of Hyrule, the Kokiri forest dwellers, and their fairy companions. It goes onto introduce "one particular boy" without a fairy, which then cuts to a sleeping Link, showcasing what looks like the new art style being introduced in the remake. Unfortunately, no gameplay or a look at the world has been revealed yet. The game originally released for the Nintendo 64 back in 1998, offering a time travel adventure where Link is once again going up against the evil king Ganondorf. The hugely well-received title has only been playable on modern Nintendo consoles using the Switch Online + Expansion Pack membership. The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time remake for the Nintendo Switch 2 doesn't have a firm release date yet, but Nintendo says it will be released sometime in 2026. Considering just how many publishers are avoiding the Grand Theft Auto VI release nowadays, the company may copy that strategy and also opt to bring this out before November this year.
