Do you think a Gundam series without a main character could work? Each episode is the perspective of a different person during the war or series of events that currently happening. It will be 20 episodes only.
you mean like Gundam Evolve?
>>23756582Gundam Evolve and MS IGLOO.
Watch more anime dumb groid.
>>23756582>closed cylinder>zoom in is an open cylinder
>>23756582Hard to build meaningful themes without central characters for the audience to connect with. You'd probably end up with a show that feels shallow.
>>23756669There have been plenty of anthology shows that managed to do that in a ~40m format. Half of that would be more difficult, but it shouldn't be impossible.
>>23756582You mean IGLOO 2?
>>23756582Foundation had a interesting take on the O’Niell.
>>23756892Foundation seems like it has some cool visual stuff going on, but everything I've heard about it is all about how it entirely misses the point.
>>23756927In ways not even salvageable. Though they are going to complete it by 2036, it will be nice to see the visuals.
>>23756582I don't think a work without a main character is possible. Even if unintentionally audiences and even writers will gravitate towards certain individuals
>>23756948Man, that is really frustrating. We could really use some grand space adventure.
>>237569564 next year may be good. They plan on doing flashbacks to the Machine War
Maybe it could follow a family. Dad is commander, Son is a guy who makes mobile suits, daughter is a pilot, other son is another pilot on the other side. see how each of their actions and the war echo out to each other. None is the main, but we have some stakes in what happens.
i thought gundamfags were retarded for shitting on the concept of newtypes and wanting gruntwank bullshit instead, which has been done at least twice and people consistently bitch about both examples (kou and shiro are basically grunts who find themselves in gundams by chance, and shiro pilots a glorified gm with a different head). now gundamfags are so genuinely retarded they think they can go against thousands of years of storytelling and not have a central protagonist. boy, i wonder why sunrise isn't calling you stupid cunts up and asking for your brilliant ideas considering ancient greeks figured out you need a protagonist to make a story good.
>>23756582You'd have to structure it differently.In a way it wouldn't really be a single story, but rather multiple stories happening in the same place, with a larger overarching plot that links them all together.Perhaps you could do it like how the first volume of Kyoukai Senjou no Horizon did and basically its different characters' perspectives and what happened on their side when the grand plot around them is happening. Difficult, but it could work if you are able to link it all together.
>>23756582Would work much better without a main character.
>>23756952>I don't think a work without a main character is possible.Fate
IGLOO 2 did that already, but what I'd like to see is one where the Gundam IS the protagonist and it keeps getting passed around to different pilots, kind of like how it was with Wing Zero when it first showed up in the second half of the show.
>>23756582Easily, Gunam protags are notoriously boring and unlikeable, it would work much better without one.
>>23765674>FateBait used to be believable
>>23756892Are the sides open to space?
>>23756582>series without a main character could work?No
>>23765895Yes, but remember this is a story that takes place in 28750 AD
>>23766126I think sides being open is feasible if there are walls high enough to contain the atmosphere, although it doesn't look to be the case here.
>>23766178Shields, shitloads of shields.
>>23765868>Gunam protags are notoriously boring and unlikeableLow quality bait but who is your favorite protag from any work of fiction?
>>23756582It wouldn't work.
