The series needed to end on the beach in their swimsuits because
Nice

Machu's machus...
Enokido knows to write teenagers. That's his strong point
Machu spanking scene will happen one day.
>10/10 girls>Most fans are fujos and yumesEvery time
It was mediocre until it decided to go to shit.
No recap movie? No side story or spinoff manga? No sequel? No stage play adaptation? No anniversary celebration? No rebroadcasting on TV? No murmuring of a proper sequel anime?
>>287364194>No recap movie?no yet>No side story or spinoff manga? happened>No sequel? no>No stage play adaptation? no>No anniversary celebration? maybe>No rebroadcasting on TV? already happening>No murmuring of a proper sequel anime?why?should just look up shit instead of complaining
>>287364194What I want out of Gqux is for the original show to be done right, and that’s just not possible. You can’t go back and fix things.
>>287364194soon
>>287364194It was a disaster they want to pretend it never happened.
>>287364713>couldn't even get a Gundam into the top 10 of the recent global poll>even IBO (9th) and GWitch (10th) got inOof.
>>287364713It just won an award lol
suletta won btw
Reminder that the Machu and Shuji are confirmed as a platonic friendship by the director and writer with no romantic vibes intended.
>>287366296So the same thing as Amuro/Lalah essentially?The whole show is filled with parallels like that.
Reminder that the Suletta and Miorine are confirmed as a platonic friendship by Bandai with no romantic vibes intended.
>>287364194Who the hell was this straight Kaworu wannabe?
>>287366296>Reminder that the Machu and Shuji are confirmed as a platonic friendship by the director and writer with no romantic vibes intended.They are as platonic as Char and Amuro, I mean Lalah. actually I do mean Amuro
Canon platonic married couple
Mess of a show but the girls are very cute
>>287366296>Sulemio gets no on-screen development, no confesion and no kiss>Director says they're married>Shumachu's romance is central to the plot, they got a confesion and a kiss>Director says they're friendsThis is weird. Are you sure or it's one of yo/u/r headcanons?
>>287366654Newtype relationships aren't usual normal romantic relationships. Intimacy is hard to describe with it. Shit just happens and youre just immediately connected to this person.Kamille and Fa connected intimately by normal means while Four serves an alternate example where two newtypes connect. Im not sure how Tomino would describe it but i guess in a sense its "platonic"
>>287366793Sounds like another way to show love. I'd still love to see a source, I don't trust yurifags and they're still butthurt for the mainstream success of GQuuuuux in Japan. Unless Tsurumaki is pandering to the puritfyfags, which it's retarded because GQuuuux is shoujo Gundam and it has a big normie audience, especially teen/young girls
>>287366836https://x.com/Char_Tweet/status/2042253248912896141?s=20https://x.com/Char_Tweet/status/2042253691990753561?s=20
>>287366945That's not Tsurumaki or Enokido so why should I care?
>>287366654>Suletta literally says she intends to marry Miorine independent of the stupid tournament at school>No confessionI just cannot comprehend the level of mental illness yuri haters have. Why can't you just hate yuri without being retarded about it, goddamn.
>>287366992Enoto is a bad translation of Enokido i think. Either way,from what I believe: Machu's kiss essentially freed him from his toxic love for Lalah and being knight/prince like Akio was to Anthy. Life came back to his eyes from Machu showing he is worthy of love, affection, or whatever newtypes need. This prevents him from killing Char again thus Lalah not resetting the universe again. Its not explained how or why he got in this position in the first place but I guess they can leave that to CD dramas or a possible sequel.
is amuro still alive in G-Qux?
>>287367192yes he goes by "Sir Not-Appearing-In-This-Anime".
>>287367192Not explained, his voice is in the Gquacks and Shuji is heavily hinted to be a alt version of him or at-least one of the guys who killed Char in one timeline.
>>287367360>Shuji is heavily hinted to be a alt version of him or at-least one of the guys who killed Char in one timeline.Seems more like he was hinted to being Char's son or something. Char smelled like him.
>>287364194listen to the freaking drama cd anon
Show was so shit they can't even blow out the gunpla at half price.
>>287367585nta but where?
>>287367813Bilibili have them
G-Qux Master Grade when?
>>287364194no, the show sucked
Reminder that the people who hate GQX are almost exclusively yuritrannies who got into Gundam due to Suisei no Majou.
Reminder that the people who love GQX are almost exclusively doing it to be contrarian to an imaginary enemy in their head.
Reminder that the people who like GQX are exclusively trannies that havent watched old UC kino

I do owe my thanks to Quacks for the existence of Nyaan, but I'd still like it better if she'd been in a good show instead.
>>287363022>painted toenailsSlut!
>>287372515But the show was bad because of her and the other shitty characters.
>>287372883Nyaan is a miracle of the universe.
>>287363022So much wasted potential because for some unknown reason they chose to stick with the 1 cour format and almost half of the air time is wasted with OYW flashbacks.
>>287373333flashback portion is barely 2 episodes.
GQ was the last time I had fun watching an original show
gallons for Comoli
>>287363022Sex with Machu at Kabbas house!
>>287363022One year later and Nyaan did nothing wrong! I still stand with Nyaan!
>>287372515Gotta be honest, I really do like Machu, but the show would've probably been better if Nyaan was the main character.
>>287364126tomachu...
>>287375385Machuchu
>>287368904There's nothing for tourists in GQ, you literally need to know Gundam, Zeta and CCA to fully enjoy it.

>ameridrones that didn't care about the show are getting their panties in a twist because of a comment lost in translation
>>287376251I don't think this is quite the case; Gquxis a very good intro to Gundam for those who haven't seen anything else at all. It gives a recap of the OYW and general setting (especially the theatrical cut that pushes the prologue into one segment at the start) and lays out important elements like Char and the Zabis, newtypes, and the sort of hopeless Pyrrhic stalemate into which the war dissolves no matter who "wins." It sets up all sorts of interesting "callbacks" if you were to see Gqux first and then go watch through 79, zeta, and CCA without actually spoiling some of the twists. Like, you'd be going into 79's climatic battle thinking Char is in danger when it's actually Lalah who dies and there's a trippy scene even beyond what she did with Machu.You don't actually need to know any background material to understand what's happening in Gqux because the important points like the tension between newtype potential and how it's being used in war are explained to the audience and demonstrated at the core of the new era's storyline and characterization. The same for things like the complex social relationships with war as multiple episodes are dedicated to using veterans of the OYW in opposition to the girls who want to be free from war, including an extended sequence discussing how war and industry feed each other. In fact I think the only place where Gqux pulls its punches in a very un-Gundam way is depicting civilian casualties and the absolute ugliness of violence. Even with Nyaan's struggles as a refugee given a focus, we don't see the worst of it.
Sequel focused on Shuji is coming bros. What do you want to see
>>287381556>Sequel focused on Shuji is coming bros. What do you want to seeEnding where Setsuna shows up to recruit the protagonists for the multiversal Gundam Wars
>>287363022I was surprised by this show, it was pretty good for what it was.
>>287379037It gives minimal context, if I didn't know how the original gundam ends, plus a few more details nothing of this would make any sense, nor would you give a shit about all the side characters that appear.
>>287363022The more I reminisce on this show the less I like it. Definitely don't hate it or anything, but holy mother of missed potential and shameless fanservice.
>>287366296[x] to doubt, not that their relationship made much sense anyway, I guess it's just more newtype autism

>>287363022I miss picrel, bros...
>>287364275>side story or spin-off mangaWhat, there is at least one?! What's the title?
>>287368904>GCuck>touristsWoah, easy now. You can dislike or even hate GQ, but calling it a show for tourists is pure retardation, given how you need to be familiar with the oldest Gundam series to enjoy it to the fullest.
>>287363022I wish this show was good, because Machu and Nyaan were really cute, but the show just went off the rails in a bad way about halfway through the show. It felt rushed, with barely any character development and way too many asspulls. I already have to suspend my disbelief everytime Newtype bs is brought up. The show should've been at least twice as long as it was, since so much of the runtime just devolved into "wow, remember this thing/person from the original show??? Lets have a whole episode/scene about this to tickly your nostalgia! You like that, right???".The animation was amazing, though. Shuji was a 0/10 character; the anime did nothing with him at all besides being bait for the girls. All they had to do was make a show as mid as WfM and they couldn't even do that. So much money and talent pissed away. It's a bit upsetting to see.
>>287386008>Machu and Nyaan were really cute>The animation was amazing, though.??
>>287363022Gundam is dogshit.
>>287386559The way they depicted their awakened newtype mabu style is so delightful, it's a shame there wasn't a fodder force for them to chew up before dunking Shuji.
>>287366480That was said by the higher us at Bandai who had no hand in making the series as some stupid form of damage control despite the actual staff who worked on the show saying otherwise. The Machu x Shuji relationship being platonic was said by the actual director of the series giving it more credibility. We all know that Gcucks was a clusterfuck.
>>287386559I’m glad we got at least one scene of these two being mavs.
cutest terrorist
>>287386957Reminder Bandai said Char and Amuro survived the ending of Char's Counterattack for decades, and have said similar stuff for other Gundam series presumably to avoid spoilers or allow for retcons later.
>>287386957>The Machu x Shuji relationship being platonic was said by the actual director of the seriesHe did fucking what?
>>287363022I cannot stop thinking about Machu's boobs and irritated face..
G-Witch is the Fire Emblem 3 Houses of Gundam and G-Cucks is the Fire Emblem Engage of Gundam.
>>287387003What was the logic behind mavs again? Was it just a black tri star reference, cuz I don't see the benefit from slowly attacking one at a time from the front, especially in space.
>>287387054Doesn't make sense, Engage was actually good
I want to see Season 2 one day.
>>287387054G-Witch being Three Houses is accurate. I like it, but it’s nowhere near as good as it could and should be, and that drives me mad. Gqux being Engage is uncalled for.
G-Witch is the Xabungle of Gundam and G-Cucks is the Wings of Rean of Gundam.
>>287387054Both flopped but g-bitch shills were more annoying so they take the big L
>>287387197Meds, now
we won bros
>>287366296>Reminder that the Machu and Shuji are confirmed as a platonic friendship by the director and writer with no romantic vibes intended.Does anyone actually give a fuck about Machu x Shuji though besides people who hated G-Witch because of yuri and try to use this to shit on the series?
>>287387238How many sequels does it take to give 1 character a personality
>>287387238His character development was abysmal, so it'd be fun to see more of him... But again, we're talking about Shuji. He was one of the worst characters in GQ.
>>287387238Shuji’s the worst part of the show. This is no victory.
>>287387238>GCuck Zeta
>>287384888It's not rape if it's true love. Reminder that GQuuuuux is shoujo Gundam so shoujo rules apply
>>287387238we need another kiss
>>287387238GQuuuX is the show that keeps on giving. Shuji was my favorite character and now you are telling me there's a potential sequel with him as the MC? BASED
>>287387820What did you even like about him? I'm genuinely curious how you could find him appealing.
>>287387213And now for real dataSeason 1 Average per volume (cumulative): Around 8,700–8,800Season 2 Average per volume: Roughly 7,000–7,500 Not even 10k average, a big flop for Gundam, especially compared to actual hits like Seed and 00.
>>287387935We aren't in the 00s anymore. Now it's about streaming numbers and merchandise. In fact, the relatively low BD sales mean it wasn't that popular with middle-aged men but normies instead, especially women
>>287387935Character goods and gunpla account for 95% of revenue for anime, not home media releases.
>>287387907I like his design, i like how he is all calm and chill yet inside he is a lunatic with incredible combat skill. He likes to paint, but if he needs to he can vaporize you. And then there's all that multiverse mystery around him
>>287388314>all calm and chill yet inside he is a lunatic with incredible combat skill.
Gcucks has the same problem Code Geass Roze has in that it's an incoherent rushed piece of shit where shit just happens and you're expected to just accept it and praise the nostalgia keys being constantly jangled in your face. The difference is that a lot of Code Geass fans rightfully shit on that series where as Gundam fans defend the fuck out of Gcucks solely because it has 0079 references.
>>287387238They should've explored him in the god damn show while it was airing.
Nyaa would sniff Machu's farts
>>287372500Gunpla funds shows.
>>287387210How does Char keep pulling underage girls?
>>287367192I would assume since it was Char that stole the Gundam in this Timeline. Either this is a universe Amuro doesn't exist or like>>287367360 says Shuji is him or some alternate version of him born later in the timeline.I think its safe to say at this point that we just don't know. And until confirmed in future material its all just speculation.
>>287385854it's made for evafags and early UC knowledge is crucial only for spotting all the shallow REMEMBER THIS THING FROM FIRST GUNDAM memberberries that genuinely just make the show worse
>>287387995>>287387998Because things like Gundam fucking Seed did not sell a top of goods and gunpa on top of the anime sales amirite. Thats something only shill from mercury somehow pulled off
>>287389634Not only are you a witch schizo but you're also an ESL
>>287387238YEEEEEES
>>287387294I think there is plenty of room for more depth to his character. Especially if he's the protagonist of a mini story or something. Or hell just do a prequel series on his multiverse gundam adventures. That would be awesome.
>>287367406>Char smelled like him.That was because they both come from another universe.
>>287389599As a Big Gundam/FLCL/Gintama/Mecha in general fan, I was very happy and satisfied with the series. I feel bad for people trying to come at it as is. It would just be a mess otherwise. Certainly would have benefited from another cour to really find itself no doubt before that crazy ass ending.
>>287389822Retarded faggot

>>287389030by being a gigachad
>>287389190It's never explored/explained but haro exists as a toy that might mean amuro is alive, it's also unclear who helped machu, like when hacking through the white base(zeon version), might have been the gquuux might have been amuro
>>287387300Machu and Kamille in close proximity would bend time and space with the combined autism.
>>287394539Yes, it was Amuro, but it wasn't Gqux Amuro.
>>287378226
>>287387238Why did they write this show with the assumption that they would get a sequel and focused on a character they weren't even sure anyone was going to like?
>>287396395because it had only 12 episodes
>>287386008>whole episode/scene about this to tickly your nostalgia! You like that, right???”. On a case by case basis yeah. Like the OYW part redoing the old eyecatchers was fun as that’s a detail you don’t see the same nostalgia for like the more iconic moments/episodes. Anno’s reverence for old sound design can be seen in pretty much everything he’s worked on and I always appreciate it.
>>287396778Hearing that entire OYW segment in the theater was a transcendent experience. It's abundantly clear that no matter how much of the scenario/script Anno actually touched, they took on his sensibility as a producer and it feels like it fits perfectly with the Godzilla, Ultraman, Kamen Rider reboots he's been doing.
>>287394562she deserved to be in a better show
>>287387238They all look like they're being held at gunpoint.
I have severe UC fatigue.
>>287398008yeah by sunrise, they want more money
>>287363022How do you pronounce it?
>>287364090Gundam is a fujocore franchiseMecha is an homoerotic genre at its core
>>287396161>machu looking sexy>isn't angry or embarrassedHeresy!>>287398282I do too, but Gqux doesn't contribute to that. The alternate history angle goes a long way.
>>287400094>Mecha is an homoerotic genre at its coreYou're not wrong.
>>287397953>threw away her husband and infant son for dead cock>sets up Machu to pull some of the retarded shit she pullsI mean she's hot, but nah, she's good right there in Gqux.
>>287393232I miss the threads, they were fun.
>>287381556I'd rather seen Machu travelling across all the continuities.
>>287403255I'd rather see Machu traveling the Gqux world. It'd be a good way to explore it. Are they mercenaries now? Gundam-for-hire? They're fugitives, gotta eat, and all they've got is a super-powered giant robot, seems like the way to go.
>>287397047In hindsight the movie cut is absolutely the intended way to start the series. Beginning with the whole OYW section uninterrupted does a better job setting up alt timeline and makes it clear from the getgo there’s some kind of time fuckery happening. Can only assume they mixed it up for broadcast version cause they didn’t want necokers complaint about the first episode being completely different from what was in the trailers.
I miss Machuesdays. Regardless of the flaws I was so charmed and entertained by the series. I wish it and G-Witch could swap episode lengths cause I think everyone can agree the two haves of the show should have been full cours each.
>>287403744I agree and think that'd be a great sequel. They're basically ronin and while Zeon might be heading toward reform, the Federation is still full of bastards. Machu in the Gqux with Nyaan assist is probably the strongest individual tactical weapon in their time period and easily capable of smashing a fleet or any MS squadron. Being fugitives with psychic WMDs puts them at the top of the priority list for the major factions, and they have the sort of personalities where if they happened to run into Feddies doing distasteful things to civilians they would intervene. Any sort of Zabi loyalist remnants would also be skating on thin ice in their vicinity. They'd be a way to throw a new twist into the classic post-OYW misery.>>287404283The impact of switching aesthetics so decisively also makes it clearer how much the Gqux story is supposed to be "Gundam for now" with its roots intact. Especially with the whole flashback segment ending with Char's seeing beyond time bit. I just wish they'd re-release it to theaters.
>both g-witch and gcucks were shit and only kept alive in discussion due to shipper faggotryGundam deserves better
>>287363104I assure you it was critical
>>287404787>>both g-witch and gcucks were shit G-Witch was good, and GQuuuuuuX still had its good points. >and only kept alive in discussion due to shipper faggotryNot true, people just like them. >Gundam deserves betterAs someone who has been a Gundam fan my entire life, no it doesn't.
>straightest protagonist since Shiro and Domon>Makes all the girls at school wetIronic
To be honest I still haven't purchased a GFreD and painted it blue like that one anon wanted...
>>287404512I think there’s going to be another war. The Federation does still exist in a weakened form, Zeon spent ludicrous amounts of funds and resources on Yomagn'tho and lost a ton of forces in the brief civil war around it, and we all know that Zabi loyalists are persistent bastards.>WMDs WMD, singular. They’ve just got the Gqux and maybe a core fighter; Fred was destroyed in the final battle.
>>287405418I liked Fred, he was a good boy who vaporized fools trying to harm my beloved Nyaan.
>>287405007Based Anno giving us young sexy teenagers in swimsuits, he's truly Char approved.
>>287403255Machu being chased around the world running from her moms chancla.
Machu was one of the best protagonists in a while, finally someone who doesn't give a shit and simply does what she wants. Would've been nice if we actually got to know how she and nyaan ended up though, one would assume they are full time zeon pilots now.
>>287407169I assume they are drifters who send invoices to Challia every month and some day he'll call Machu when shit hits the fan (but she'll already be at the epicenter of whatever's happening)
>>287407223Assuming they are left with a single gundam they still need to refuel and do basic maintenance on it, logistics for such a machine seem impossible for 2 teenagers without a military organization behind them, even in anime.
>>287407413That'd be why Challia slips them things under the table and gives them a home whenever they need to crash.
With all its cons and shortcomings, I riked GQuuuuuuX.
>>287407413They make friends with an engineer. Problem solved.>even in anime.Watch more anime.
>>287397953tfw we can only guess whether Sleggar was her husband
>>287407656What cons?
>>287407673No, it becomes a recurring gag that Machu crash lands on the White Base while only warning Challia by newtype flash at the last second, no matter where the ship happens to be at the time. Nyaan is always screaming cutely from the core fighter clutched in Gqux's arms. Fix it, masked higeman
>>287407169>finally someone who doesn't give a shit and simply does what she wants.Many if not most Gundam protagonists are like that. Amuro, Kamille. Judau, Garrod, Heero(arguably), Shiro(eventually), Mika, Suletta. Just off the top of my head. A good chunk of Gundam protags are normies who are dragged into this shit.
Machu was an absolute retard and her show was rushed towards the end, but it got me to try out UC Gundam and for that I will always have a soft spot for it. Plus the OST was a 10/10.
>>287388392>incoherent rushed piece of shit It’s literally not but I guess if you had trouble understanding FLCL, Utena, or even Diebuster of all things it would
>>287408961>Plus the OST was a 10/10.What the fuck is wrong with you? Listen to this NOWhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z8LtNBpqc_M&list=PLUBK2zwRugOxOmqA7z2CwDftuuIaDfUZd
>>287409930It sucks we probably won’t get another Gundam with that Tomino whimsy feeling again.
>>287409930That's good. Gqux's OST is also good.
>>287409930That's a great track, of course, but let me raise you this:https://youtu.be/nR8p6QO2i58I've found all the various Gundam OSTs stellar, honestly. I think the one I liked the most is Turn A's.
>>287411042Love this one. Really sells the Yomagn'tho as something truly horrible. I was rolling my eyes at it being named after a Lovecraft god at first, but this track helped make it work.
>>287366629Every anime ever.
>>287387907Considering Machu’s kiss literally brought life to his eyes, we might see different side of him the next time we see him.
>>287364194No follow ups could possibly live up to the impeccable character writing of GQuuuuuux.
>>287413764>No personality NPC gains a soul after having sexAn almost Tominoesque character arc, bravo.
>>287413785If only you could tell the answer to this question by watching the show. What a shame.
>>287414062>quoting character dialogue verbatim is enough to make Quacks fans defensivelol
>>287413867 >NPC gains a soul after having sex You’re acting like Tomino hasn’t pulled that exact beat before. Half his cast goes from cardboard cutout to “burdened by the gravity of human connection” the second someone looks at them funny. At least here it wasn’t random battlefield empathy laser, it was horny newtype awakening. If we’re gonna asspull a personality patch, might as well make it funny.
>>287414379>insulting a show anon likes makes anon defend that showWild.
>>287413785>>287414062Wait, did Nyaan for full Reccoa and become a war criminal over getting blue balled?
>>287413785Honestly its not like they gave her much of a choice.
>>287414481Sorta? She lost everything then got picked up and groomed by Kycilia.
>>287414618... Does GQuuuuuuX at any point do anything even remotely original?
>>287414716Watch it and find out, fag.
>>287414716Watch the first episode. Its very original. Stop listening to fags who just want to complain about bull shit.
>>287414744>>287415230So the answer is no. Got it.
>>287413785This is literally Cecily in F91.
