Just caught episode 3. I'm loving this so far but the only thing that I wonder about is how will the show build and sustain tension? Here's what I'm saying, generally speaking two heads are better than one. It seems like that is going to be an unfair advantage against everyone else in the tournament they go up against.
Not to mention, if we know that Reji AT LEAST held his own without Sei's model against the Italian champ then then it should be a somewhat downhill from here right?
Nonetheless, I'm really excited to see how the Gundam battle scenes play out moving forward between the characters.
 
According to Japanese fans, Build Fighters will apparently not feature any mechs from 00 Season 2, the 00 movie, or AGE, due to "copyright reasons". It's rather puzzling when I first read it, since Sunrise should own the rights to everything. So what could the issue be? Thinking about it more, MBS shares the copyright on both Gundam 00 and AGE because they were the main station sponsoring it as a production partner (including the 00 movie), while BF airs on TV Tokyo.

That would probably be the main reason, but why would the first season of 00 be exempt? Interestingly enough, as of this year, the first season of 00 would be over 5 years old. Could there be some sort of timed copyright sharing in the contract which expires after 5 years? Anyone have any idea about this?

No insight whatsoever, but the best designs were from season one anyways. I hope to see some Overflags in action.

It's not like we would be missing out on much.
 
They haven't actually said where Sei's dad is, right? They certainly seem to be hinting he is dead, but I half expect them to either be pulling our leg and he'll just show up after a long trip or (speculation)
they do think he is dead but he actually got Last Starfightered into Reiji's world after winning at Gunpla.

Sunrise would own them, but there likely is some agreement about the use of the shows content on another network that is off limits for the time being.

That's interesting and actually makes sense.

Exia was featured prominently in the Iori store showcase, though. If this is true S1 is still fair game.

How utterly tragic.
 
I actually liked the gundam designs from the OO movie. Although Zabanya was made of ridiculous hax cheese. Most OP bits/funnels in gundam history.
 
Seen the first two episodes but not sure if this is picked up just yet. Seeing anything from Sentinel animated would quickly sway my opinion.

I'm thinking
that he'll appear in the World Tournament cosplaying as Schwarz Bruder.
 
His dad isn't dead. Im pretty sure one of the character profiles on the site says he's traveling the world for Gunpla or some shit.

Blue Destiny Unit 1 is basically a custom GM. Though yes, so far there's definitely been way more enemy grunts than allied grunts shown.

And it still lost regardless of having the EXAM system active.

I had my hopes up Reiji was going to pick the GM in the bar display case then they bring out the ball. I lold then frowned. D:
 
Boxed Deathscythe showed up in the last episode.
 
Federation vs. Zeon is the best gundam game I have played. I enjoyed Extreme Vs, but I prefer a meaty singleplayer experience.

I've never played the PSP sequels
 
Wait for EXVS FB so you can actually do stuff with Wing.
 
Episode 3: Full Package

Sei and Reiji's conversation is the best part so far, and clap hands for not doing wristholding but handholding, really good. Fun times and just really nice interactions, comedy and backstory.

I hope more fanatic meetups are planned, imagine dressed like Innovators or the crew of the Ptolomy or even Archangel/Trojan Horse at that rate for this. Would be incredibly pleasing and good.

We could have seen Ricardo Fellini Gunpla Battle though

Haha, yeah. I don't trust anyone that prefer 00 over Exia.

Truth.
If I ever assemble a Gunpla, it'll be an Exia.

Every Gundam was made of cheese there, they should've just made the GAR movie that appears at the beginning instead.
It would've been glorious

The SP in EXVS is quite long, especially if you try to get all emblems, S rank everything, do all EX paths in arcade, grind endlessly play the Zaku mission over and over all work and no play makes Jack a dull boy have fun forever maxing all units.

I dunno, Qan didn't get to do anything before it turned into a flower. Raphael got absorbed before it could really do anything.

Harute looked awesome, but I don't remember it doing anything except zipping around pew pew pewing

Zabanya on the other hand:

LOL

I want a GAR sequel
 
So Exia can still be in this, right?
Watched episodes 2 and 3 yesterday, not much to say, show of the season.
 
So.

Not really being into Gundam before watching this (TRANSFORMERS FOR LIFE!) this show is such a gateway drug. The same channel has Gundam OO on it (is that double-oh or double zero? - I say Gundam OOooo") and I'm really enjoying it.

I found myself yesterday in one of the shops in the Trocadero eyeing up Gundam models (a 1/144 scale Gundam Dynames). Given my pre-existing Transformers problem, getting into collecting these would be bad...

How tall do they end up?
