Oh yeah, that happened
>>282300264It's big in Japan. This series is an excellent example of the rift between Japanese and western audiences.
the series named by leaving something on their keyboard
>>282300264And that was the best thing that ever happened to the franchise.
>>282300264I didn't hate the show but I don't know how to feel about it either. I just spent the entire run confused trying to make sense of the choices of the characters. References were cool, I guess.
Machu's machus
>>282300264>gundam in the 21st century
>>282300264Yeah that's how I felt about g-bitch.
>>282300264>Call it gundam quacks>Main gundam isn't a giant duck???
The only lasting impact this show has is the whorehouse.
>>282300277The reception and ratings are still overall bad.
>>282300264I like it a lot, but I wish it'd stuck to the ground-level view of an alternate timeline instead of being about OG Gundam characters fucking with time and space. The stuff after Side 6 was still good, but it couldn't bring it all together in any satisfying way and ended up dragging the show down. Machu is good, Nyaan is good, I wish the show had actually been about them. At least the ED ended up being canon.
>>282300264Waiting for the sequel movie
Has Doo recuperated yet? Did you buy enough merch?
The only good thing about this piece of garbage is the wave of porn it has spawned.
I really really like her
>>282300264I liked it. Maybe following it weekly made it prone to shitposting and theoryfagging but it's flows really well as a whole.
>>282301827it flows*
>>282300277why do gcucks keep pushing this narrative like we can't read japanese reviews
>>282300393>References were coolCool like MCU.
>>282300264this shit is godawfulthey should've adapted Gundam Origin more instead>>282300277japs have shit taste
It's amazing that they managed to make an even worse series than G-Reco
Machu's machu!
They couldn't even deliver on the AU aspects properly.
>>282300264Nah
>>282302755BUT DUDE, REFERENCES ARE COOL! YOU 'MEMBER CHAR AND LALAH? SO COOOOL
Sex with Machu
>>282300849>lasting impactZoomers out.
>>282300264Most of Gundam is trash tbf. The only good ones are War in the Pocket (8), Stardust Memory (8), Gundam X (8), Unicorn (8), Turn A (8), Zeta (7), and 08th MS Team (7).
>>282307055>Not G>Not Wing>Overrating ZetaTrash taste.
>>282301865Might be newfags mistaking a heavily commercial anime for a popular one
>>282300897I wanna do the Doo
>>282309970Deux-kun is such a pretty boy, would suck his pp
>>282304469If I'd wanted reference galore, I'd have rewatched The Origin.
>>282300437>>282301632>>282302117>>282305082>Machu machus*cums aggressively*
This felt like an odd attempt to appeal to both the fans who got into the franchise thanks to G-Witch and UC nostalgiafags while finding a way to appeal to neither. The most this will get remembered for is Machu and probably nothing else
MACHU'S FUCKING MACHUS
>>282311440The only thing I'll remember gcucks for is the various porn art it spawned. Pretty disappointing as a Gundam fan.
By the way, Q-uacks is a stupid name. I know Gundam isn't exactly known for its naming conventions, but they at least make sense and are snappy.What the fuck would "GQuuuuuuX" mean to literally anyone who didn't already know the context?
>>282300277Japanese ratings are even worse.
>>282307055>no victorybruh
>>2823002772.5/5 on nip amazon LMAO.
>>282309970Is doing the Doo good for you?>>282310618Have a (Yoo)
>>282300277I'd like to blame it on nips shit taste, but you just made that up. Missed opportunity, but sadly nips actually hate it even more.
>>282300264the only good part was the movie where they showed us alternative version of 0079 event if Char went inside the colony and steal the gundam and white base.
>>282312484See, that's where >>282311440 applies, since I really liked the relationship building between Machu and Nyaan, and being more average civilians more than the space poltics, mostly because I've never watched the original MSG, but that's exactly the pointThis series felt like like was two different kinds of Gundam series fighting for control, and not deciding what it wanted to be. Is it a show about a girl learning her place in the wider universe? Or is it about this atlernate Zeon controlled timeline and seeing the ripple effects it has on the major players and universe at large?I don't fucking know, and the script doesn't either.
>>282312236V needs a fan supercut. It’s a flawed masterpiece but it could be amazing if you just cut out a lot of junk.
>>282300826I was also confused about the lack of ducks. I was surprised no one else in the threads seemed to talk about it. Did I miss something?
>>282300852Whatever helps you sleep at nigh. I mostly follow JAP accounts on Twitter and back when it was airing it was fairly popular and beloved, it still is nowadays. The only ones I've seen hating it are brainlets on shitholes like here or Reddit.
Gcucks was astroturfed as fuck while it was airing. One the forced embargo on honest opinions was lifted with that shitshow of a finale, the floodgates were opened.The majority of the show as so bad and meaningless that the only fan content it gets only a few months after its release is yuri and/or prostitution doujin centered on either episodes 8 and 9, or the last scene of the show and the ED. Even the brown loli maids, Bluechu and Machu x Comoli get more content than the majority of the cast.Does everyone even bother remembering the duels and the Pomeranians? Even Shuji barely gets anything, and he's ostensibly a main character. It's not looking too good for its future prospects if this is how it's treated not even half a year later.
The most interesting and hottest character dying the episode she appeared in without having done anything important should've been a red flag
>>282300277That's gundam in general. Gundam hasn't been big in the West since 00. IBO and WfM had some traction but were soon forgotten, outside of the faggots
>>282316416That's because Sunrise/Bamco have no fucking idea how to capitalize on it. Hell, Bamco in general seems to think we're still in the 00s given their fuck awful Netflix show they tried to make as a thing
>>282315744Watch more Tomino retard.
>>282300264stopped watching the show as soon as the "next time on episode 2" showed that it was just going to be a bunch of rehashing and referencing other gundam shit. the g quacks is cool though.
>>282316782No, I don't think I will after this
>>282300264What OP, you want constant zombie generals like /snk/ or /dbz/?
>>282304469>I can't believe this alt OYW story has OYW references!
>>282316974Gundam is a very small franchise you see, very niche, that nobody has ever heard of before the last season.
>>282316782Tomino does interesting and/or psychotic stuff with his characters before killing them off though.
>>282316974>like /snk/ or /dbz/that's exactly what zoomers think a popular show should be like
>>282316974>>282317187Quality aside, they ARE popular and will probably remain so. Which reminds me>SnKIt's basically an offbrand Gundam series with fleshy monsters as the mechs. There is NO reason why Gundam can't be popular in the west, and attempts of it fizzling out is purely on Bamco and the constant need to force UC down people's throats.
>>282317562I don't understand what makes you think it isn't? America is a huge market for Bandai right now.
>>282317725IBO is popular, G-Witch is popular, amongst a certain age Wing and SEED are popular, even Gunpla in general is popular? But the entire franchise, most of all UC? Nah. At least not nearly as much as Bamco would like it to be, which they have taken heavy swings in recent years and missed almost every time
>>282317923>real populism has never been tried!
>>282318029If I'm wrong, then how come Sunrise/Bamco keeps trying to find new way to reinvent the series and have it "appeal to the west"? G-Witch just got in the new SRW and it was released worldwide, but you wouldn't know from the lack of any meaningful western advertising
>>282311440>while finding a way to appeal to neither.Idk if the shows mission was to get people to watch more UC is worked cause I know several who’ve gone through 079 and beyond cause of it.
>>282318126>how come Sunrise/Bamco keeps trying to find new way to reinvent the series and have it "appeal to the west"because it's a huge market? they finally realized that western audiences are retarded and prefer certain things (fat people, blacks, gays, etc)
>>282318179Because of genuine interest or because you need to watch some UC to understand fuck all about the setting? Because given by the lack of buzz, I can see people being turned off by the franchise too. It's a double edged sword to make something to "appeal to everyone" because there is that off chance it works and gets them more interested in the greater franchise, but more likely is the case of you turning people away who otherwise might've been interested
>>282318247The west also doesn't give a fat fuck about Gundam, at least now to the same degree Japan does. It's gained fans in the west no doubt, but it's fairly niche, and Bamco does it damndest to alienate people who are already fans by doing stupid shit to appeal the general mass western market. They have to learn this lesson over and over again, seemingly having learned nothing.
>>282318251Interest for sure. Seeing various highlights of the setting with a new coat of paint made them go and see the original.
>>28230705508th too high but otherwise based
>>282318630Again, this is only one case and I doubt it's as common as an occurance as the latter. Assuming newcoming didn't just give up on it at all if this thread is anything to go by.
>>282300264so is this pronounced Gooks or what?
>>282318708Gee Cucks
>>282300264It was good
>>282311644Machu paizuri even exist?
>>282317725>America is a huge market for Bandai right nowThe West has a declining share. Where the money is is in Asia, aka China.
>>282302073Honestly looking at modern video games and modern anime, I'm more inclined to believe that westoids (at least the ones in the Anglosphere) have worse tastes than the japs
heh
Gcucks did one thing right
>worst protag, still likableHow did she do that?
Nyaan is best Thai girl.
>>282300264I do have my gripes with it, but I still liked it overall.
I still stand by Nyaan, she did nothing wrong.
>>282300264I wanted this show to be Machu's coming-of-age story with mecha battles and some slight references to old Gundam.Instead we got this MCU multiverse bullshit and Machu ended up as a side character in her own show.The anime definitely needed more episodes (and definitely didn't need to spend 1.5 episodes on nostalgiawank flashbacks), but honestly I don't know if that would've helped much since they already decided on this timeline multiverse plot.It's kinda crazy because Tsurumaki pretty much told the exact story I wanted to see in GQuuuuuuX in Diebuster but did it so much better that time, and it was only 6 episodes, I don't know how he fumbled the bag so fucking badly given MORE episodes to work with. I still liked it but man it could've been so much better.
It will never stop amusing me how this show exposes tourists
>>282325344I bought a thai tea at a 7/11 in Bangkok once and received a drink that was chock full of kratom. To this day I am not sure if I said some sort of secret word on accident or the cashier accidentally gave me her wagie juice cup.
>>282325212Same way women get away with the wildest shit,By being sexy
>>282300264I've never seen a show fall off this hard despite all the hype. I actually forgot this show aired this season.
>>282325212If she was the worst why do I want to see where her adventure takes her next?
>>282311440It's not fair. >>282315632>Does everyone even bother remembering the duels and the Pomeranians?Yeah, that was the better half of the show.
>>282301632She doesn't like that you really really like her, which makes me really really like her even more.
>>282327118The best parts were Nyaan doing Nyaan things as well as kirakira'ing Ghirens supporters, and CHALLIA THE BVLL curbstomping feddies.
The best things that came out of this show is the music. My favorite being The Girl on a space colony https://music.youtube.com/watch?v=zA7Mtlrlv1I&si=yxbbqxLS6RRZUWN1
>>282327209God, I wish we'd stayed there. You can still do political drama stuff while on Side 6, it's fine.
>>282307055t. retarded ovafag>Stardust Memory (8)into the trash
I liked the insert songs.
>>282318708The katakana pronunciation is jikuwakusu (g-quacks)
>>282318708gkwux
>>282327156I'm in love with her
>>282300264Hell yeah it did
>>282327156Patrician taste
Machu's going to return in Super Robot Wars anyways, eventually.
>>282300264Worst Gundam AU ever
>>282300277It absolutely isn't. Reception is completely dead, and most japs already forgot it even aired, and the ones that remember wish they would forget it.
>>282331167AGE and IBO exists.
>>282331300That’s what happens when you make seasonal anime now. G-Witch was super popular when it was airing, but now people have forgot about it or have completely turned against it due to the ending or other things not meeting expectations. G-Quuuux has fallen into the same hole.
I liked it, could have used another season or a movie.
>>282333339>Another season or a movieIt'll happen, eventually. Either through a movie, or a sequel in SRW
>>282331300Cope.
>>282331300I mean I still see fanart even if it’s isn't quite the torrent it was while airing. Also as a gunplafag I still can’t find some of the kits cause of how fast they sell out, mainly the Police Zaku.
>>282329721Whether it be SRW or a sequel season/movie I demand Machu and Kamille interactions. The two of them could warp time and space with their combined autism.
>>282300264I only saw maybe 4 GQuuuuuuX cosplays at comiket. This dogshit culturally flopped so hard it isn't even funny anymore.
>>282329679I NEED machu feet in my mouth.
>>282325344I had Thai food yesterday and got a tummy ache.
>>282333339If it involves whatever is left of the feddies/the earth terrorists and how a now militarily weaker Zeon deals with them as well as other characters we know that we haven't seen yet, then yes I'd agree. It would be cool to see that explored a bit further, there's a lot left unexplored.In terms of the story that they told, it did ok with the length. The last 3 or so episodes felt rushed so maybe one or two more would've softened things but it probably doesn't need more than that.
>>282334170>you shouldn't have tried to suck Shiji's dick
