So is newtype = space magic?

They're basically Force users.

 

[TheGameshark]

This girl's character design looks the most old school of the bunch.

 

[cntr]

This is a character from a previous UC show, so that reveal is actually kind of hype

This girl's character design looks the most old school of the bunch.

That's because she's literally from an older show

 

[Mik317]

what was her plan there

 

[Wheeljack539]

Really liking this OST.

The OST overall is pretty awesome with some of the best stuff later on.

 

[ShinRPGamer]

If nothing else, Sawano is doing a good job in making the OST once again. So far no complaints on that end.

 

[Unspeakable Evil]

Oh hi Stephanie Sheh

 

[Imperial Bishop]

The character designs combined with the detailed shading makes this a strong contender for Best Looking Show of 2017.

 

[MikeBreezy92]

This chick is gonna be stranded in the friendzone. I only watched the first half of this lol

 

[Man God]

So is newtype = space magic?

Psychic mutants.

 

[Crimson_Echidna]

So is newtype = space magic?

In basic terms, it's like having a psychic connection with a Mobile Suit Unit.

 

[Schadenfreude]

Wouldn't she still have died?

 

[Hellwarden]

Getting mighty Eureka Seven in here....

 

[Neoxon]

Oh look, low battery.

 

[Shard]

Is the soundtrack is wavering between the obnoxiously idiosyncratic and the terminal dull sides of Sawano's oeuvre.

 

[Moaradin]

I remember a robot ball companion like this in G Reco.

 

[Crimson_Echidna]

That's because she's literally from an older show

Is this what's her face from ZZ?

 

[cntr]

Newtype is the Universal Century term for "psychic", as in, 60s science fiction psychics.

 

[Zonic]

I..........zoned out.

Why did she need to be saved? Was she floating in space or something?

I have never felt so indifferent about a first episode

Edit: omg it's Eureka.

 

[Unspeakable Evil]

Getting mighty Eureka Seven in here....

Maybe because she has the same voice actress

 

[B.K.]

I remember a robot ball companion like this in G Reco.

It's almost a requirement that UC shows have a Haro.

 

[Dedication Through Light]

Awkward places to end some of these episode was my only complaint with tv version.

 

[BatDan]

Help me Obi-Wan Kenobi, you're my only hope

 

[Shard]

I remember a robot ball companion like this in G Reco.

Mobile Suit Gundam has one as well.

 

[Man God]

Is this what's her face from ZZ?

Spoiler

Well one of her tank full of clones.

 

[Moaradin]

That was an awkward ending

Oh hey another Sawano insert song.

 

[cntr]

Is this what's her face from ZZ?

Yup.

 

[Dr. Chaotix]

It's always war.

I hope there's more Nazis and less pretend Suicide Squad Joker Wannabes.

 

[Soulflarz]

well that was a first episode?

 

[Chase17]

yeah I'm not going to trust the character who got stuck in space a minute after being introduced to stop a war.

 

[Chaotic-Strike]

That's a really odd place to end this episode.

 

[Imperial Bishop]

Gundam War never changes.

 

[SigmasonicX]

You guys mentioned that the episode endings are super awkward, since these just split up direct to video movies, but wow, that's super awkward.

 

[Raxus]

Kid is having 'Nam flashbacks.

Aw, it is over already?

Well I am looking forward to the rest of the series even if this episode just stopped.

 

[Mik317]

that was a show

 

[Schadenfreude]

I've never seen a Gundam other than IBO but this seems like a very Gundam show. Time for Hunter x Hunter.

 

[bigkrev]

Yeah, the action was pretty, but I doubt I'm sticking with this

 

[8 X 11 Printer Paper]

Well that's Gundam.....
This week on HxH: Gyo!

 

[Zonic]

I cannot remember the last time I just had nothing to comment on during a show on here.

I know, only the first episode & to give it a few more episodes, but......when I zone out, that's not a good sign, because I almost never do that during toonami.

 

[mightynine]

It's weird to see Sunrise's logo at the end of a show.

 

[Wheeljack539]

So is newtype = space magic?

Kinda like Jedi in a sense. Some ESP, spider-sense at some points and even

Spoiler

able to see the dead at times.

As bizarre as it sounds its all been around since 1979.

 

[BatDan]

That's a really odd place to end this episode.

This was originally a series of 50-90 minute OVAs so episode endings are going to be really awkward.

 

[SparksterMeta0]

It's been a while since we've seen those Haro balls.

 

[ShinRPGamer]

An abrupt ending if I saw one.

Not off to a great start.

 

[Dedication Through Light]

OMG screw TOONAMI, why did they have to cut Next 2 U - eUC - like that?!?!

 

[TheOGB]

This is a really good looking show, I like the old school art style, but man it is hard to stay focused without a giant robot fight on screen

 

[Unspeakable Evil]

Yeah that was Gundam alright

 

[Moaradin]

I know it's kinda unfair since I've never seen any mainline UC stuff, but that was a really confusing episode. The animation is very beautiful though and I still plan on sticking with it.

 

[Kaizer]

Well, okay - definitely need to see more, but yeah it was pretty much a regular Gundam opening episode that leaves me confused to what in the world is happening.

 

[bigkrev]

Happy they stopped calling that abomination a "Philly Cheesesteak" and are now calling it "Steak and Cheese"
