So you'll have to buy more to replace them

Which is exactly what Bandai would do

Seriously, Bandai can only wish their models doubled as fighters.
 
mai Freedom ;_;

Great first episode. Also, moe Ral.

Okay, this was much better than expected.

Not sure what to expect but the execution is pretty damn good.
Also seeing all those different types of Gundam really made my day.
 
wat
uhhh is this like an official gundam show by sunrise?
sounds more like a self-parody or some shit

fake edit: hmm it's only 12 episodes? yeah it's not a "real" gundam show i guess

It's not 12 episodes. :P

It's a real Gundam show by the core staff who worked on the Gundam 00 franchise and the Gundam AGE franchise. Same directors, writers, designers, animators, etc. Dealwithit.
 
The only Gundam series I've ever watched is the original 1st season, but I did get to go to the Gundam "museum" in Odaiba (Tokyo) this summer and see the gigantic 1:1 scale Gundam RX-78-2 that stands outside. Anyone wanna see a few pics?

I am actually extremely interested in seeing pics. I was looking at some photos and videos of the 1:1 gundam last night.

But duckroll, your favourite game dev Hino isn't involved on this series!

oh it's not? gundam wiki listed it as 12 episodes so i thought that's the case
i'll most probably be checking this out, gundam unicorn is just too damn slow

oh and will level 5 be suing them? setting wise isn't this like 99% similar to little battlers game? lol

Level5 doesn't have a single original idea ever, so no, they won't be suing anyone.

Sunrise already made this a year before Little Battlers was released anywhere:

The O better make an appearance in this show.
And looking at that first GIF, it would be pretty cool if they made an actual MG Turn X gundam.
 
Gundam Wing was my first Gundam.

Gundam Wing was my last Gundam.


Should I try Build Fighters as an introduction to Gundam that won't put me to sleep or want to perform handgun fellatio?

gundam g is a good place to go, i think. it doesn't take itself as seriously as wing but it still has the moody art design and stuff

Watch 0080 and it will make you want to watch all of them. Wing is my favorite but I consider 0080 the single best thing from Gundam
Seriously Wing was the only series I could stand, watched 0080 then ended up marathoning every single series(except AGE, screw that) for the next couple weeks afterwards.
also only 6 episodes so its an easy watch.

Will watch an episode of G and 0080. Cheers.
 
Well, it was original to say the least. I'm not sure if I'm ok with it being Yu Gi Oh with Gundam. I liked Reiji though, will watch the rest to
see if he is some kind of Tyler Durden

Cool. I went back and looked through the photos and unfortunately I do not have many good shots from inside the 'museum.' Most of it was 'no photography.' The main features were a special film shown inside a large dome which gave an immersion effect, and a large hall full of original storyboard drawings which was really cool. The only way to get photos of the storyboards was to buy a very expensive book though - my wife decided to buy clothing instead.

Before you go in they have a bunch of really meticulously finished plastic models on display (which are for sale in the gift shop, of course)


Then you go into a display/waiting area, where photos were allowed


There was a huge wall display in there where you could pick any character and watch a slideshow of photos with accompanying bio. My wife's a Char fan.


Sorry but that's all I have from inside that aren't personal photos. Then outside of course, there's the RX-78-2.



Some more from later in the day when we walked by again. Eyes were lit ...



After dark they light it up and steam starts pouring from the vents. I had a hard time getting night shots though - crap camera sorry.

 
This, Kill la Kill and Valvrave are saving anime one act of lunacy at a time.

Awesome, thanks for sharing the pictures.
 
so does this show have some kind of actual game tie-in?

The show premise really is just the next step for:

rock-em-sock-em.jpg


would totally buy toys and arena and what not.
 
mai Freedom ;_;

Great first episode. Also, moe Ral.

ct922RR.jpg

Ramoeba Ral is the best thing that I have seen in moe ever.

I hope we get some Crossbone in this show, so we can all cry that Crossbone was never animated.

Also, since chances are slim I'll get some WZC, I hope they at least give me some ZZ, God and Dynames.

GTFO.

Feathery POS all day errday.

Aw yeah. I love the Wing Zero Custom. Seeing it fight the Epyon would make whole my childhood.
 
First episode was great, reminded me of Metabots and Zoids. Hate watching an anime thats ongoing and would rather steam roll through it in a day or two but I'll make an exception this time.
 
i flip flop between which version of zero i prefer. at the moment, i think i'm leaning towards th wing zero proto.
 
I hope there's a badass Zeta variant when we get to the Gundam Battle Championships. Oh and somebody wrecking shit in a Ball would end me. The mash up potential here is great.

I hope we get some of the Zabi family as side characters as well.
 
I guess that Reiji's homeplanet is eventually gonna invade Earth and we're gonna switch into some more traditional Gundam "us vs. them" plot line, right?

But I'm guessing they'll still work in the models in some over-the-top way, like whoever wins the Gunpla Battles wins the Earth.
 
Ep 1: Sei and Reiji
tumblr_mud859vWTx1qkg9dqo6_r1_500.gif


Whoever is the one rendering musical talent and sound direction for this anime must be praised. There is nary a dull moment in the song selection for all moments involved that it becomes something of its own nearly even halfway through. I think I want the soundtrack immediately. On the same line the ending song is amazing and makes me remember how Gundam as of late have had just back to back straight hits of really good OP and ED music (see Age and Seed HD...).

Reiji and Sei are the best parts of this and their growing friendship will no doubt get better. If they can keep being a team like this and shock and surprise even the most confident people then it should be a really nice and wild ride.
Curious for how Newtype will actually play into this though, as it seemed kind of funny that he'd come from space and etc to need to be taught the ways of this land and even building Gunpla. Maybe from some alternate dimension?

I hope Deathsythe, 00 Raiser, and my Forbidden Gundams from Seed show up. they are a must. And if we can get more Gundams with Bits and WIngs please.
 
0080 good then? might do it if its only 6 eps
If you could only watch a single Gundam series, that would be the one to watch.

keep in mind though it isn't heavily action focused, though the action is great.

Also the English dub is great, MC is voiced by David Hayter(Solid Snake).
 
So no new main gundam, are we still going to see strike gundam? its been 10 years already and they keep on using that same damn pose over and over again.
