gundam Gundam Discussion Thread

Yea that moment made me sad. I'm actually downloading AGE again right now. There was Yu-Gi-Oh, no one died, but they were just cool with defeating each other on the table. I think it's the same vibe with this and any other card of build game.

 

I admit though, Build Fighters made me tear a little. LOL but I never cried as much as 00 when Stratos died and Haro yelled out his name.

 

Yeah, no doubt.. I doubt there will be that kind of situation like that in builders. It's just kids playing with toys. It's like beyblade all over again lol. 

[Jamushroom Veteran]

Yeah, that part where Stratos he looked at the earth and talked was pretty touching too. His whole last part really, the part where he breathed and out deeply before his last shot was great too.

Anyhow, I understand what Razorwing means. It's not a proper Gundam series where Gundam pilots fight to stop a war and save humanity. It's basically another Gundam series, like AGE, aimed at kids. I can't wait till "Gundam: THE ORIGIN" airs!

Well even in AGE they were still trying to stop a war. lol.

That's true. But for me there were many things wrong with AGE, as I've mentioned quiet a few times in this thread, haha :p AGE wasn't a proper Gundam series either for many reasons, imo.

Since I've started watching the show for the 3rd or 4th time.

i like build fighters as far as anime goes, but i still would not consider it a Gundam series. most like a gundam parody.

 

I do not remember if i have seen Age or not but Gundam Unicorn is the best thing to come out of Gundam in a very long time. Thankfully it is becoming more and more popular so i think that we might see another good series soon. Hopefully we will get more Celestial Body based series. I would also like to see something else in the Gundam Wing era/universe.

Haha you mean Celestial Being?

 

To this day, I'm still obsessed with 00. I mean..LOOK AT THIS S***.

Not too keen on that version. The color scheme doesn't do it for me.

Celestial Being was pretty much finished with the film so don't expect new material from that. They're going to air "Mobile Suit Gundam: THE ORIGIN" next year so that's good news! At least it'll be a more mature series in vein of the originals/Gundam Unicorn. I'd love for them to set up a new universe like Universal Century and keep building off of it instead of creating new universes for each series. Also, there's a new manga set after the events of "Gundam Wing: Endless Waltz" and it's called "Gundam Wing: Frozen Teardrop"

That looks like a custom 00 Qan[T]

[Mr.XXIV]

That looks like a custom 00 Qan[T]

 

It does, but I quite honestly find this sexier. I actually just started watching Gundam 00, and now I'm on Season 2. :P I had to download 60GB of 2 Blurays.

The big red thing is the NZ-999 Neo Zeong and is a armored variant of the MSN-06S Sinanju:



It's kinda like the Dendrobium unit. In other words, this is going to be one hell of a finale!

[Razorwing]

Holy crap look at that thing. I guess that is going against Full Armor Unicorn.

I think so too. It's kinda like the GP03, it's a mobile suit with a support unit. If you look closely, you'll see Sinanju's head in the top.

"Mobile Suit Gundam" 35th Anniversary Site Launched

A new portal site for the 35th anniversary of Sunrise's Mobile Suit Gundam series launched today. The first TV anime series Mobile Suit Gundam started airing in Japan on April 7, 1979. While not much information is revealed, the tagline on the site says, "Rise! The World is Moving." And a video screen shows "Coming Soon: March 20th, 2014 5PM, ON LIVE." It means a new announcement related to the Gundam series will be broadcasted online at 5:00 pm, March 20 (JST), 1:00 am, March 20 (PST).

What can you expect for this March 20 announcement? The long-awaited Gundam: The Origin anime series? A new OVA series following the very successful Gundam Unicorn, such as Hathaway's Flash or Crossbone Gundam? Yoshiyuki Tomino's new anime (G-Reko or collaboration project with Legacy Effects)? Bandai confirmed back in July 2013 that Tomino's newest anime work will be released as a part of the 35th anniversary of the Gundam franchise in 2014 to 2015 and the anime adaptation of

Gundam: The Origin will be also released around the same time.

Gundam's 35th Year Marked With Reconguista in G, The Origin

Bandai Namco Holdings, Sotsu, and Sunrise confirmed the three main projects that will celebrate the 35th anniversary of Gundam during a Thursday event. Episode 7 of Mobile Suit Gundam UC will play in theaters on May 17. Aimer will perform theme song "StarRingChild."

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_9kA4UZA5kM

Gundam: G no Reconguista (Gundam: Reconguista in G), the franchise creator Yoshiyuki Tomino's major Gundam project since the 2005-2006 Mobile Suit Zeta Gundam film trilogy, will debut this fall. It is set in "Reguild Century," the era set after the Universal Century, and it will follow the adventures of a pilot trainee named Beruri Zenamu in Capital Guard, an organization protecting a space elevator. The character designer is Kenichi Yoshida, and the mecha designer are Akira Yasuda, Ippei Gy?bu, and Kimitoshi Yamane. Yuugo Kanno is scoring the music.

Kid? Senshi Gundam: The Origin I: Aoi Hitomi no Casval (Mobile Suit Gundam: The Origin Blue-Eyed Casval) will tell the story of Casval Rem Deikun and Artesia Som Deikun (Char and Sayla, before Char became known as the Red Comet) before the One-Year War in UC.0068. The four-episode adaptation of Yoshikazu Yasuhiko's manga will debut in theaters in next spring.

At first I was looking forward to "Gundam: THE ORIGIN" but now that I see that the art work looks a lot like Gundam SEED, I'm looking forward to it a whole lot less. "Gundam: Reconguista in G" however, looks awesome! I have a huge sweet spot for Kenichi Yoshida's character art.

[Mr.XXIV]

FINALLY THE ORIGIN

[Razorwing]

Yes! Finally.

[Jamushroom Veteran]

Yeah, I reacted a bit too fast yesterday. I'm still looking forward to it but I expected more from the art.
