So far down the pipeline we have Gundam UC2, the rest of Hathaway's Flash, the 00 sequel, Seed Freedom Zero and the live action film. Did I miss anything? Also, what else do you think we'll get? Any guesses? I want a Gaia Gear adaptation or a Turn A sequel since Reconguista in G's status as one is contested.
>>23625758A G-Saviour animated remake, trust the plan. The UC NexT 0100 initiative said we'd get stories after Victory, so I hope we get something Late UC, preferably after the wacky Mad Max in space shit that the Crossbone mangas are.
>>23625758Frozen Teardrop lol maybe.
They are going to animate OL Haman for Zeta's 40th anniversary and I can finally die peacefully in my sleep.
>>23625758Tomino's newtype bonanza series.
>>23625771Are we oldtypes gonna understand whatever the fuck's going on or do we have to stick to A/Z?
>>23625771Can Tomino out-newtype Fukui?
>>23625758>the 00 sequel, Seed Freedom ZeroGot a source for any of those?
>>236257580079 remake, eventually. Or a full GTO series.
>>23625786>00 sequelhttps://www.animenewsnetwork.com/news/2018-04-15/gundam-00-anime-gets-sequel-project/.130390>Seed Freedom Zerohttps://www.animenewsnetwork.com/news/2024-11-01/gundam-seed-freedom-zero-prequel-announced/.217427Ignore ANN, they're shit, but they're the easiest sources I founs.
>>23625791An AU 0079 remake based on G40 might be fun.
>>23625792That "00 sequel" was just the liveshow.
>>23625795The liveshow and the plays are different things, Mizushima said the project might come out in 2027 due to covid delays and to commemorate 00's 20th anniversary.
>>23625758I'm surprised G-Witch and GQuuuuuuX aren't getting new projects now that Gundam's surpassed Dragon Ball and One Piece in terms of revenue. Did people really like cute girl protagonists that much or are there other factors?
>>23625800The degree of animosity between those to fanbases makes me wish if they do get anything it's a crossover.
>>23625809I will never like G-Witch. You couldn't pay me to like Ichiro Okouchi.
>>23625800>I'm surprised G-Witch and GQuuuuuuX aren't getting new projectsToo new.
>>23625809Man, I remember yurifags going apeshit when Machu turned out to be straight. They were insufferable assholes who acted like Gundam was a yuri franchise after G-Witch.>>23625814Makes sense.
>>23625800G-Witch iirc has two spin-off manga if that counts
>>23625830I remember those. I wonder if it will get a sequel with a new protagonist? I want the next protag to be a straight dude just to fuck with newfag tourists.
>>23625830One was cancelled and the other is a high school AU with no mecha...for a mecha anime that takes place in a school.
>>23625800>now that Gundam's surpassed Dragon Ball and One Piece in terms of revenueMost of that is because of SEEDslop
>>23625836Hard to believe that a movie that was delayed almost 20 years ago was still relevant enough to be a success.
>>23625838Hard to believe but it’s true. Seed Freedom blew all expectations and became the single highest gross selling piece of media in the history of gundam.
>>23625841Yeah, it's crazy how much people were waiting for it, Seed really is the most popular AU, isn't it?
>>23625841And was then dethroned by Gquuuuuux Beginning.
>>23625768This but split it in two like the IT movies did. The past AC stuff in one movie, the current Mars story in the other.
>>23625794>>23625791has there been a term in which they make a "remake" of something but change the time era of it? I only really can think of Romeo + Juliet with Leonardo di caprio.
>>23625758A proper new Build Fighter series and adaptation of Beltorchika's Children
>>23625929>adaptation of Beltorchika's ChildrenWe already have CCA. At least ask for it's prequel, Hi-Streamer.
>>23625830WFM has only 1 spin-off manga.
>>23625929>A proper new Build Fighter seriesNever happening.
>>23625929>A proper new Build Fighter seriesMan, we haven't had one since 2019.
>>23625968You mean 2014.
>>23625834>the other is a high school AU with no mecha...for a mecha anime that takes place in a schoolTells you all need to know about the target audience of WfM.
>>23625791the remake is the live action movie
>>23625768Dead on arrival
>>23625998The movie should be a new AU.
>>23625983Yurifags left the Gundam community after G-Witch ended. They really were tourists.
>>23626005I wonder what the G-Witch newfags who stayed after are like.
>>23626008My sister's first Gundam was G-Witch, then she watched 00 and it became her favourite.
>>23625792That shit was announcing the S2 you idiot.
>>23626080Check the date, retard it's 2018, the second season was 2008.
>>23625834>high school AU with no mecha...for a mecha anime that takes place in a school.This seriously boggles the noggin.
>>23626008They got really mad at G-qux ending with two straight pairings as the focus of the narrative.
>>23626221I still remember the butthurt. They were insufferable fags before the ending.
>>23626221>>23626222Man, they were so sure after G-Witch that Machu and Nyaan were gonna be dykes. I still remember the threads.
>>23625838>>23625841SEED was the series most people outside Japan were first exposed to Gundam in a significant amount, especially China which is a huge marker
>>23625834Am I the only asshole that wants to see a more "Slice of Life" Gundam with a protagonist who has a Gundam land in the backyard in his colony and he's trying to "sell" the Gundam while being inconspicuous with it as a high schooler? I mean yes blah blah he can end up joining whatever later and you have your typical Gundam show, but it would be neat as a start of some random kid finding the Gundam "going oh shit cool" and it's just MOTW episodes with him trying to protect and hide the Gundam until he can figure out wtf to do with it while also pretending to be a regular kid that's totally not hiding a nuclear weapon in his backyard.
>>23626314Sounds kinda like Turn A Gundam.
>>23626311That makes sense.
>>23626311Even in Japan itself, SEED having 6.1% ratings in the early 00s basically made it the first time Gundam had a real mainstream hit since the original Gundam. If you just compare numbers, Zeta's 6.6% looks higher, but in general there was a huge drop in average tv ratings betwen the 80s and early 00s, so SEED managing those numbers put it among the top 10 rated anime for 2002/2003, while Zeta wasn't a top 10 anime when it aired in the 80s as far as tv ratings go.
>>23626571I think my biggest gripes with Seed Freedom were Shinn not getting a substantial upgrade to his Gundam, the final boss not being a Gundam type and no new Lacus song. Otherwise, I had fun with it.
>>23626322Yeah, sorta I guess. The White Doll was more out in the open though. lol I'd imagine it would be what I thought ZZ was going to be.
>>23625768>>23625920Frozen Teardrop is absolute shit, trust me, just inform yourself a bit about it and you'll stop asking for it
>>23625758you're forgetting thunderbolt
>>23626745Are they still gonna animate that?
>>23626768i believe so? i don't think they said otherwise
>>23626780The manga ended, so maybe soon.
We're likely gonna get another AU gundam soon to tide us over for the next few years now that GQX and GWitch are over.
>>23626906Was GQuuuuuuX the new mainline Gundam or a side project like G-Reco was? I know we have AU mangas now like Burai, Despair Memory Sequel and Eight.
>>23626924Side project, Sunrise is busy working on the big gundam movies so they have no animation studios that are free. Khara is free and they wanted to work on a gundam by themselves so they let them.
>>23626925That's good, I didn't want 12 episodes to be the new standard and a major AU tied to UC didn't sit right with me, I enjoyed GQuuuuuX, though.
I wonder if we'll ever get a fantasy Gundam?
>>23626963It worked for Dunbine, Escaflowne and Rayearth, so maybe someday, we got Gundam isekai with Build Divers Re:RISE and it was alright.
>>23626963Might be fun.
>>23625792>00 squekuel>posted in 2018
>>23626975We got an update saying that it was delayed to 2027 due to covid.
>>23625941Does she turn someone into tomato paste with that motorcycle?
>>23626981I'm imagining her just picking it up and smashing someone like a cavewoman.
>>23626220G-Witch tourists didn't care about the mecha.
>>23626009There is hope for your sister.>>23626223I don't know how delusional/dense you need to be to see two gals and one chap in promos and conclude that it's going to be yuri.
>>23627026>There is hope for your sister.Yeah, she has good taste now.
>>23626976Plus the main guy has been busy in the meantime with MHA.
>>23627026>I don't know how delusional/dense you need to be to see two gals and one chap in promos and conclude that it's going to be yuri.Anything with 2 chicks in it is yuri to them, even if said chicks hardly interact or flat-out despise each other.
>>23625758Is this the thread for pitching ideas even if we have no expectation of them happening?
>>23627026Never underestimate how retarded shippers are. They think 2 characters existing within the same vicinity are suddenly gay for each other.
>>23627039It doesn't help that western "creatives" cater to them and turn their versions of the characters into fags for social media points.
>>23627056That's why I want the Hollywood movie to be a new AU, I do NOT want them making fag versions of iconic characters.
>>23626975Gundam Seed: Freedom was announced way back in 2006 and only saw the light of day in 2024, so there has been longer time spent in development hell.
>>23627038Could be.
>>23627056>>23627064>versionsWhat annoys me is that they think that new versions of characters are canon to the main timeline. Even capeshitters know the difference.
>>23627076>>23625758Alright, you know how there have been a bunch of shows revisiting the oyw, what about an anime like that, but for the Zanscare War.
>>23625758>the live action filmI think what might be worse than the actual film is the possible animated spinoff it might produce. Western "adult" animation always feels like it's written for edgy teenagers who see sincerity as cringe and irony as based.
>>23625758Gundam tokusatsu show. Whether Gundam fighting mobile suits or Gundam fighting kaiju
>>23626741We can tell you haven't read shit about it. >>23625758There is no 00 sequel.
>>23626981Not yet.
>>23628111>There is no 00 sequel.Correct, but you will never get through the people that insist every year that "don't worry the 00 sequel will come out next year."
>>23625828>Gundam was a yuri franchise after G-WitchBut G-Witch isn't yuri
>>23626987That sound really cute
>>23628216Try telling that to yurifags.
>>23625758I just want a complete Crossbone adaptation.
>>23628216>>23628342>show that ends with two women in love and married to eachother isn't yuriGrow up.
>>23628482That's never happening. Crossbone's story isn't that good and they already sell the crossbones by themselves so there is no need for a show.
Still laughing at yuri tourists making up their own headcanons.
>>23628578G-Witchfags BTFO
>>23628578And the writers and main directors said they were married. So who cares what someone who was barely attached to the project thinks.
>>23628587They are married to each other, deal with it.
>>23628589>denial
>>23628590It's almost sad how you can't accept reality.
>>23628602They are married to each other.
>thread gets derailed by an angry yurifagCan we get this thread back on track? What do you fags think is next for UC or another AU?
>>23628619Honestly, I don't give a fuck about the G-Witch protagonist's marital status, but my God, people get annoyingly defensive over it. The spinoff not having anything /m/ related really showed that these faggots are tourists. /a/ and /u/ tourists flooding /m/ was a mistake.
>>23628625>/a/ and /u/ tourists flooding /m/ was a mistake.Did the same thing happen with Kannazuki no Miko and Rinne no Lagrange?
>>23628638>Rinne no LagrangeIt was mostly just shitposting about it with Gundam AGE at the time. People weren't super obsessed with the pairings. I remember /a/ having a meltdown when Madoka said she wanted to be a mother someday after hearing sexual things.
>>23628619Next UC after Hathaway's Flash is probably UC2, I hope we don't get another shitty OYW spinoff, Requiem for Vengeance was shit and I'm really sick of that time period getting wanked. Probably a minority opinion, but I don't want a Crossbone adaptation, but something set in the UC 0200's aside from fucking G-Saviour.
>>23628657I wonder what the UC timeline made my GQuuuuuuX would end up like? Queen Artesia sounds like an interesting plot to build upon.
>>23625758The Calamity War prequel would be great for Iron-Blooded Orphans, but it's probably the same situation as the 1999 game for Castlevania fans or the Sparda's rebellion game for Devil May Cry fans where fans have built up so much expectations that anything will be a disappointment in comparison.
>>23628657>Requiem for VengeanceGod, I hope we never get another western Gundam animated show again.
>>23628657I've followed Crossbone and Victory and man, things got way too wacky. I want a return to form in a later time period.
>>23628619He's been seething ever since the spin-off poised Guel as one of the main three protagonist.
>>23628681Huh, first time I'm hearing of this.
>>23628681Is he a tourist? I remember some retarded faggot saying Gundam was a yuri franchise.
>>23628694Probably just a troll or a shitposter. Don't feed him.
>>23625758> Gundam UC2, the 00 sequelAre these really going to be a thing? I thought only SEED was confirmed.
>>23628719UC2 was leaked with Hathaway's Flash back in 2018, but I'm not sure if it's still happening, the 00 sequel might come out in 2027 with Seiji Mizushima, the director occasionally posting on X to confirm the project's continued existence.
>>23628726The idea of a UC2 is weird because, other than the characters still being alive, there really isn’t much to explore in the Unicorn story and the novels didn’t go past the events of Narrative. So they have this rather short window of time between Narrative and Hathaway or F91 to do anything.
>>23628741It was a tenative title and positioned to be a sequel to Hathaway's Flash taking place one year after it. Kinda like original Unicorn was a sequel to CCA, I guess.Probably would have a new main cast as well.
>>23628741>>23628748This, the Unicorn Gundam being intact in the end of Narrative was a tease for it, I think. I wonder if we'll stick with Banagher or get a new protagonist.
>>23628751Makes me wonder if the Dark History is to be taken seriously, did Rita in the Phenex ever meet ELS Setsuna at some point before Turn A?
>>23628625Do you like exec's who have no control over something say after the fact that what was clearly shown on screen wasn't that?
>>23628705This >>23628602 >>23628587 >>23628578 is the shitposter.
>>23628758I don't really care one way or the other.
Fuck, he's back.
>>23628768So if the exec's say Char's Zaku is blue you don't care?
>>23628775I won't throw an autistic tantrum online if that's what you're asking.
>>23628776Stop feeding the troll.
>>23628662>The Calamity War prequel would be greatNot really, it's always been something from the past that we shouldn't know that much about and there not any reason to show it in full as opposed to finding bits and having characters in the present speculate about it.
>>23628777You are the troll.
>>23628777Trips of truth.
>>23628778Like the Colony Nation Wars from AGE?
>>23628784Exactly, the past isn't as important as how the present views and acts based on that ancient information .
>>23628793True. At the very least, I'd like to know what Agnika Kaieru looked like.
>>23628778This. Calamity War is only interesting because it is a mystery. Seeing the actual event would likely be boring.>>23628784Colony Nation Wars from AGE sounds like your regular Gundam stuff, so adapting them seems pointless to me. The only interesting thing about it is the MS design, especially looking at The Gundam from AGE MSV.And if I wanted more AGE, I'd prefer a sequel trying to do a remix of Late UC stuff.
>>23628802>And if I wanted more AGE, I'd prefer a sequel trying to do a remix of Late UC stuff.The only tease we got for that was Vagan militants hiding the existence of the Gundam Legilis R.
What crazy genres would you like Gundam to explore? Horror and fantasy might be nice.
>>23628862Cosmic horror and steampunk. Also, the lore behind Turn A and the the Turn X being found from a previous civilisation would be fun to explore.
>>23628862Gundam with vampires, basically Valvrave but good.
>>23628862An interstellar Gundam sequel to Turn A. Many civilisations probably left the solar system, so it would be interesting to see what they've become.
>Tranny ran to the janniesKWAB! Still doesn't change your fake couple not being a couple.Join the 41% already.>>23628681KEK bet this made the trannies seethe.
>>23628862I am watching RoV, so palace politics will be nice.
>>23626008Trannies
>>23628862I'm not ambitious, I'll settle for a 12 ep space adventure story about a mission to track down the space whales in CE. I just want to see my boy Stargazer againMaybe it can then transition into the cosmic horror story someone else wants when they find them
>>23628862A "Mobile Worker Gundam" series that focuses on engineers and corporations as they enter an arms race to be the first one to design the mobile suit capable enough to extract and bring back a mysterious material from a distant planet back to Earth. There would be no zero battles in this one, but will still include a shitton of prototyes and other support MS of various roles to make gunpla of.
>>23629923*There would be zero battles
>>23628862MS SportsMobile Formula Gundam IGPX
>>23625758>Freedom prequelWe already have that. It’s called Destiny. It sucked.I love Freedom, it feels like Seed finally being what it wants to be, but there’s no more blood to be squeezed from that stone. You can’t do it twice.
>>23625809I like both.That animosity doesn’t feel very significant and does feel very artificial. It’s at least not worth respecting
>>23629923Sounds like what G witch should have been about if only the director stopped listening to Xittertroons.
>>23628619Another AU with bishonnen paramilitary group please. Make it a combo release with Frozen Teardrop so the oldfags can relive their favourite Wing pairings, and the newfags can be educated into proper fujoshis that will keep the metaseries alive
>>23628862Super robot with old-school art style and everything
>>23629923Yeah I wouldn't mind another Igloo-esque show but more on the design sign of things rather than the live testing, with OYW Zeon probably being the best choice for it again because of how much shit they were cranking out. Probably just 6 episodes. Can have the how-the-fuck-do-we-deal-with-the-Gundam episode, the episode about Zeon's ridiculous demands that result in the Zakrello, the Big Zam ep, the we-finally-perfected-the-Gelgoog-thanks-to-Tem-Ray's-circuit-but-it's-too-late-to-matter ep, etc. And probably a mandatory Charwank ep about creating a unit just for him that never came to fruition kinda like the Alex for Amuro, if that hasn't been done 50 times already in manga or something
>>23630087You could retcon Destiny with a remake of sorts. It wouldn’t be a bad idea. But obviously not with a movie.
>>23628619>What do you fags think is next for UC or another AU?Bandai's head of Gundam already stated a general outline of what to expect in the next few years:1. UC-oriented focus as part of the build-up to the grand 50th Anniversary, and also as part of continuing the UC Next 100 Project. - Includes completing Hathaway's Flash 2 and 3. - More mainly UC-based works in development, but could include possible AUCs or AU-UCs like GQuuuuuuX, if only to explore more of the legacy cast in new ways. - Will still have a few AUs in-between UC releases, but the focus is UC until after the grand 50th.2. Continuations of certain "financially viable" AUs in order to match UC in terms of extensive lore. - SEED is heavily implied, as the statement came out right after the announcement that SEED broke all past financial success records for Gundam. There's also the Freedom Zero movie prequel that was greenlit a few weeks after, and Fukuda also stating he's looking forward to more stories in the Cosmic Era setting. - The 00 sequel counts given that Mizushima confirmed that the project was still a go.3. A few new AUs. The head of Gundam stated that Bandai will continue to experiment with new AUs as part of slowly expanding Gundam's reach so that someday, there'd be a Gundam series for almost everyone. He admitted some will be small, and others may be large, depending on audience response.4. Celebrating anniversary milestones of past AU Gundam works in small ways, citing the recent G Gundam anniversary (a pair of web novels), and the (then) upcoming Wing anniversary, then the X anniversary next year.Personally, I want the WWII sequel to Turn A that Tomino had planned under the Galia Senki project, and integrate MS Saga into it (given that MS Saga itself was based on parts of that cancelled project).
>>23630189>Personally, I want the WWII sequel to Turn A that Tomino had planned under the Galia Senki project, and integrate MS Saga into it (given that MS Saga itself was based on parts of that cancelled project).Same. It can even have some G-Reco foreshadowings.
>>23630189Pretty extensive list. Thanks.
>>23630189>Personally, I want the WWII sequel to Turn A that Tomino had planned under the Galia Senki project, and integrate MS Saga into it (given that MS Saga itself was based on parts of that cancelled project).Same, that would've been awesome.
>>236259682013*not really a fan of rerise since it's just gundam metaverse instead of real gunpla fights like its predecessor
>>23630136>combo release with frozen teardropFrozen Teardrop goes out of its way to antagonize the fujoshi community. It would be unpopular with that crowd.
>>23630189That's some pretty exciting news. I'm hoping for a proper AU soon as well as continuations of the best AUs.
>>23630483Did you like Try?
I want Monoeye Gundams animated, and MGs of the 3 custom MS.
>>23630189It was always weird to me how CE only got a single anime side story in Stargazer when Japan is so super gay for SEED
>>23630510it'll be tough to outdo the lolwat of double-featuring Totoro with Grave of the Fireflies
>>23631235Let's not forget that Bandai was trying to pull back on SEED when they realized that fans weren't following their weird business plan of using AUs to entice viewers into UC, back when getting fans to ultimately get stuck in UC was their goal.The Stargazer OVA was also a one-off meant to tide the delay of the actual movie, which was supposed to enter production after it before Morosawa's continued ailing health put it off indefinitely.Bandai didn't change their business stance until sometime after 00, when they started counting non-Gunpla and non-home media sales (DVDs) as a measure of success, but they still reiterated their desire for AU fans to eventually become UC fans. It was literally only with Freedom being such a titanic success that they finally admitted that SEED would be evergreen and viable and expand upon it further.
>>23626741Gundam anime adaptations always deviate from the source material.
>>23630189The future looks bright.
>>23631347Like how Narrative retconned Phoenix Hunting?
>>23628862Card game
Unfortunately Gaia Gear suffers from rights issues so an actual adaptation would have to follow the audio dramas and not the actual novels, and I doubt Tomino would want to make a Turn A sequel now. He seems focused on Himiko Yamato.
>>23625791The only way that’ll happen is if Tomino and Yasuhiko croak.
>>23626963Then it wouldn’t be Gundam, would it?
>>23626221C’mon now, practically everyone was shitting on the ending for being nostalgia pandering and calling Anno and Tsurumaki hack frauds.
>>23627039Anno and Tsurumaki loves their yuribait, remember Diebuster and Rebuild Of Eva?
>>23628741Is Fukui still working on Moon Gundam?
>>23632145>ifWhen.
>>23630189>Personally, I want the WWII sequel to Turn A that Tomino had planned under the Galia Senki project, and integrate MS Saga into it (given that MS Saga itself was based on parts of that cancelled project).Don’t get your hopes up, it seems he has abandoned that and to be honest- Tomino has a tentative relationship with Gundam and he seems passionate about Himiko Yamato.
>>23630711shitty sequel to the original GBF
>>23632151Tomino is immortal, anon. We all know this. When his mortal shell passes he will simply transcend to Byston Well.
>>23632143That's unfortunate.
>>23632137Exactly.
>>23625800I mean I don't buy anime figurines but I got one of Chu Chu so they must've done something right
>>23628547>girls can't exchange friendship rings lesbianism doesn't exist in the canon
>>23626906There is a chance, since if you look at the schedule of Bandai model kit on next year March, April, and May it was suspiciously lacking of any major release. April for especially only listed 2 Im@s 30MS release with one being option parts
>>23628778>>23628802Personally if they want to animate Calamity Wars, i prefer Battlelogue style anthology series that only show the snippet of that war and only showcasing the important part of the battle
>>23633298At least G-Witch got cute girls right.
>>23633300They are married lesbians.
>>23631347Frozen Teardrop is a complete trainwreck. I think only the basic premise of there being an uprising on Mars could be salvaged. They should give up on it entirely and make something different if they want to do a Wing sequel, preferably with the main cast as the protagonists since the FT cast were the Wing team but more annoying and braindead.
The G-self MG.........I'll wait, my dear.As long as it takes.
>>23633575Based.
>>23633472I loved Miorine,
