Title: Gundam SOLA (tentative)Theme: Gundam vs ExtraterrestrialsStaff: ULTRAMAN Anime Team, Kamiyama Kenji as director
3D only for mechs
Muv-Luv Gundam?
I'll just watch Star Trek again instead.
adaptation of 8? or original project? because 8 is still running (afaik) and is fighting ayylmaos
Can we at least get normal looking designs again?
I'm fine with anything as long as it's not another yuri bait.
>>23784847Gundam is said to be designed by Eiichi Shimizu (Linebarrel, Getter Devo, Vangray SRW V)
Male protag
>>23784855oh fuck, we're getting horse leg Gundam lmaoo
>>23784855He peaked at Linebarrel, no idea what happened to him after that. Getter Devolution is pure dogshit.
>>23784855Hell yeah.
>>23784832>vs ExtraterrestrialsHope it's evil monsters and not just people but with green/blue skin >>23784868Getter 3 is alright
>>23784832Movie/OVA/TV?????
>>23784832>Gundam vs ExtraterrestrialsSpiritual successor
>>23784883Should be TV Seasonal Anime
So they're doing an Ultraman. Wonder if the nerds will call this the third Gundam to be Super.
>>23784894Retard.
>>23784832So they're really dead set on having other studios to make a short series each as the leadup for the 50th anniversary. Khara first, now it's Production IG. Who do you want next? KyoAni? MAPPA? MadHouse?
>>23784915I'll take KyoAni if they do OL Haman.
>>23784915Trigger
>>23784909Stop liking Gundam 00. Stop calling it one of The Good Gundams.
>>23784921Doubling down on retardation only proves me right.
Gundam (Turn A) vs Alien (Turn X)
>>23784832>Theme: Gundam vs ExtraterrestrialsAliens or long forgotten colonists centuries after space colonization began?
>>23784832And when is this supposed to air?
>>2378488812 episodes then? Or split cour like G-Witch?
I wonder if they'll be actually alien looking things like the bugs from Starship Troopers or if they'll just be faggy moe looking people with blue marks on their face
>>23784832>Theme: Gundam vs ExtraterrestrialsBeen there done that>Staff: ULTRAMAN Anime Team,Uh oh>Kamiyama Kenji as directorIts shit>Eiichi Shimizu (Linebarrel, Getter Devo, Vangray SRW V)This guy's designs are the very definition of hit and miss mostly miss
>>23784980Americans pretend to know about shit and then post something like this.
>>23784989Are the Americans in the room with you right now?
>>23784832>Kamiyama KenjiThis guy has been consistently shit since GITS SAC 2nd Gig ended
>actual rise of AI>rise of digital mass surveillance sponsored by various tech firms and governments>multiple conflicts in different parts of the world using new technology>strongman politicians and lobbied bureaucrats ignoring and/or undermining various laws and democratic institutions of their respective countries>cynical and jaded younger generations due to various societal and economic problems>extremely polarized populations on a variety of topicsIf the Japanese weren't creatively bankrupt hacks Bandai would have been able to pump out multiple Gundam toy commercials a year just by using the current events around the world as inspiration. 80s Tomino would have a field day going through news articles and first hand battlefield accounts from different social media in the past 4 years.Instead we will get Gurren Gundam, UltraGundam, a Gundam isekai and Gundam gacha before we get another worthwhile series.
>>23784832why are you posting chinese reposts of the original 5ch post>>23784858>>23784855why are you posting retarded chinese replies to questions that are not taken anywhere from the 5ch post>>23784844>>23784846>>23784860>>23784888why are you retarded
>>23785015You can find all of this shit in previous Gundam shows but you are a twitter retard.
>>23785053That's a reputable leaker, retard.
>>23785062>reputable leaker>source is 5ch postwhy are you retarded
>>23785015>If the Japanese weren't creatively bankruptMore like if they weren't pussies. They don't want to tarnish their relations with China, the Trump administration and the various AI glowie lobbyists any further hence no socially conscious modern media. Enjoy your ayylmao Gundams and recycled meme isekais.
>>23785067>>source is 5ch postHe's responding to a bunch of questions with info that isn't on 5chan. That user has accurately leaked and confirmed a bunch of other shit before, he's seemingly part of Bandai or has contacts there, stupid retarded nigger.
>>23785053Well why are you?
>>23785053>>23785067Holy newfag-chama. Lurk moar.
What does the -chama suffix mean?
>>23785118Lurk ten years newfaggot.
>>23785123Can you just answer the question? I've never heard it before, and when I use Google it says it is a UFC thing. Is it a UFC thing?
With all the hack tomino metaphysical nonsensical garbage in gundam for the last 20 years, I can't see aliens as being a big deal.
>>23784858Picked up
>>23785125It's a moe way of combining -chan and -sama.
>KamiyamaYou niggas are gonna beg for G-Witch and G-Quacks to be back.
>same production team as the shitty netflix ultraman cgi animeOH NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO
>>23785015It was already done in GiTS. Everything happening in the current world has already been predicted and done by various media in the last few decades.
Why is the average /m/ poster retarded? This thread is so fucking dumb it's making me dumber by proxy. Ultraman means it's made by the staff that made that shitty Netflix Ultraman anime.
>>23785189Yeah no shit retard.
>>23785192Then why is everyone talking as if the show is gonna be Gundam Ultraman?
why is kenji kamiyama supposed to be a bad thing? I liked SAC and higashi no eden
>>23785207Have you watched anything he has directed in the past 15 years?
>>23785209No, what has he?
>>2378521709 Re:Cyborg, The War of the Rohirrim, Netflix's Ultraman, SAC_2045, Blade Runner Black Lotus, Napping Princess. He's washed.
>vs extraterrestrials Completely missing the entire point of Gundam I see
>>23784844Daily reminder the prop designers were weebs and his anime everywhere. Like the phasers work with Nadion Crystal's or some shit and the stargazer has orguss plamo. Urusei Yatsura's name is everywhere etc.
>>23785015>Gurren Gundam, UltraGundam, a Gundam isekai What the fuck gundam series are you talking about?
>>23785077>AI glowie lobbyists any further hence no socially conscious modern mediaSuper Sentai a show for literal babies had the villains be LLM AI.
>>23785077Japan doesn't seem to be as enamored by AIslop the same way the West is, at least not in the sense of shoving it in everything. I'm pretty sure the anime industry as a whole wants to skin techbros alive because of the real fake anime some models can make. Nintendo even said they see no use for AI in game development. Now I could be wrong and probably am wrong because I am a moron, but I've yet to see anyone get on their knees to suck off these glorified chatbots. Yet they fell hook line and sinker for NFTs when the fad already died.
>>23785241>they fell hook line and sinker for NFTsOnly a few companies tried to pull off that shit, let's not pretend it was a big deal.
>>23785248That's true. Just find it very funny some old Japanese businessmen found out about NFTs so late. I'm surprised Bandai did but then again they have always been some greedy motherfuckers who know Gundam fans will buy anything. The fact that they haven't outright axed Metaverse is crazy, sunk cost fallacy's a bitch.
>>23785256Japan is an entire ecosystem, american trends reach much later, specially meme shit from twitter.
>>23785241>>23785248I don't recall Japan ever being part of the bored ape craze, but they were playing around with the decentralized DRM/authentication aspect of NFTs (which is fine; that's ACTUALLY what the tech is meant for.) They just made the mistake of trying to involve the customer in the process due to the fact that a culture of retards made a market for them and they thought it would be good PR for some reason.NFTs will be useful someday on account that nobody likes DRM or 2FA, but in practice, they're not supposed to be sold or bought. They serve an authenticating function and that's it. The idea of them holding value came from crypto bros betting (correctly) that they could turn a profit off JPEGs by selling them to retards simply because it involved a blockchain.
>>23785260True.>>23785265The NFT selling thing always reminded me of TF2 hats or CSGO skins. But at least those have a function in a game right?>which is fine; that's ACTUALLY what the tech is meant forYeah but that's boring and people can't part fools from their dollars with that. The authentication aspect always gets buried under that unfortunately, just like the actually useful purposes of AI being overshadowed by people using Grok to undress little girls on Twitter. AI's a much bigger can of worms though. A way for companies to prevent piracy without using garbage like Denuvo or online checks would be good for everyone involved I think. Also using NFTs for physical/digital security like a keycard.
>>23784832release window?
>>23784837they should just use gen ai on 3d assets. it's legitimately less jarring than polygons.
>>23785331You should put a bullet through your skull, it's less jarring than reading your posts.
>>23785332lol. why so mad, tranny?go back to >>>x.com
>>23785224>Netflix's Ultraman, SAC_2045, Blade Runner Black Lotus, Napping PrincessHoly shit we're fucked!
>>23784832>Gundam vs ExtraterrestrialsThis fucking sucks, what made Gundam stand out from other mecha at the time was how it was about humans fighting other humans. The ONE thing about Gundam which has managed to remain consistent was how it existed in a transitionary space between high science fiction and our current day. The moment you go past that then there really is no point in being “Gundam”. It might as well be Macross at this point.
>>23784832>Extraterrestrialsso robots vs aliens flailing in space, no ground combat. skip!
>>23785015So instead of Gurren Gundam and Gundamacross, you would rather have Gundam by Hideo Kojima?
>>23785343Macross needs idols and planes.
>>23785365Gundam but Char is an idol and Amuro and Lalah are plane pilots.
>>23784855I'd be down with this if it turns out to be real. Love his legs.
>>23784832Look like Turn A, Qan[T], and God are going to get dethroned.
>>23785015We already got Gundam Isekai, it's called build divers re:rise
>>23784887Honestly this, I'll expect it to be Combattler, Voltes, or Daimos levels of drama.
>>23785224He really peaked hard. Or he probably just stopped giving a shit
>>23784832Sola as in "sun" or sola as in nip's "sora"(sky)? what a curious name
>>23785730Neither, its a tentative working title. The "Sola" most likely just referring to "Sola Digital Arts" which is Production IG's CGI collaborator studio (who worked on said Netflix ULTRAMAN anime).
>>23784832Since it's Production IG this wouldn't be an internal show like G-Witch, it'd be more like GQuuuuux>>23785067This guy worked on G-Witch, he's trustworthy
>>23784832So by Extraterrestrials do they mean like intelligent Ayys with their own mecha or Kaiju from space?
>>23784832>vs ExtraterrestrialsBrings an ancient idea to mind. I wonder if the scenario will be a stand-in for how humans squabble even when major, sometimes unkillable threats are nearing or present. Sort of like Godzilla being a stand-in for disaster.
>>23784832>>Production IGSay no more.
>>23784846I pray it is. Can't be anything else unless it's a legit new Gundam project. In fact, we don't even know if the Gundam Eight timeline continuity HAS a name, so the anime adaptation could get one for it.
>>23785015You can do all of that and still have aliens as an overarching threat, you pseudo-intellectual clown.
>>23785826>we don't even know if the Gundam Eight timeline continuity HAS a nameSee upper-left.
>>23785958Meant "See upper-right".
>>23784832god damn it, finish gquuuux s2!
No way it's a gundam 8 adaptation when the manga has barely even started unless the manga is short and was always meant to just be an ad the while time.
>>23786040Kinda weird that between Gundam 8, Burai and Despair Memory Sequel, we have AU manga now.
>>23786068Original AUs even. AU manga is one thing but it's pretty unusual for an AU to outright start with a manga.
>>23784858Skip.
>>23786068I want studio wit to do an anime adaptation for burai
>>23785331Based and true. Enough of CGI, it's all the samey.
>>23785343Vegans aren't human
>>23785015>just by using the current events around the world as inspirationThis, instead of creating a story around concepts you should just write everything around current real world events.It's the reason why modern politics in modern Star Trek has elevated the franchise beyond what it was in the past.
>>23784960As long as they aren't mindless non-entities characterwise, that's the more common extreme in low effort sci fi anime these days
>>23786314*Im fact, something like Blue Comet SPT Layzner would likely work great in Gundam
>>23785958>>23785959Constant Calendar... This is gonna be an overlap to the Correct Century. Still, just gonna expect they make Gundam Eight as an anime.
>>23786306Star trek is literally at its best when it's not just about current events and political issues, but when it's at the fringe progressive edge. Deep Space 9 was basically a black power show celebrating black masculinity at a time the general TV exec was terrified of that shit.
It's going to be revealed that the aliens are humans all along and all of the aliens are just propaganda by their respective factions. The "alien" will also call the protagonist evil alien invaders who's taken their home
>>23786952Sounds like AGE.
>>23786988Yes, but without flit to carry the show.
>>23786996Genocide Grandpa was awesome.
>>23786952>>23786988>>23786996>>23786998Also sounds like Gargantia on the Verdurous Planet.
>>23786074I guess the ideas were way too weird to risk on an anime. Despair Memory Sequel especially.
New additional infoCodename Gundam RGMars setting, story about fighting to reclaim Earth (humanity migrated to Mars after Earth was occupied by extraterrestrials)MA (Mobile Armor) with Zeon-like vibe, also have some mutation/animalistic traitsKamen Rider Kabuto Movie? (idk what the leaker hinting at)Once again mentioning that CG is for the mechs, done by Sola Digital Arts
>>23787034Armored Genesis/Genesis Climber MOSPEADA did this before. Despite that, I am anxious as to how they'll do this. Witch from Mercury soured on me on TV anime Gundam works, so while I'll get into this when it comes out, I just hope it has a more satisfactory ending than WfM.
>>23784832>Gundam VS Extra TesticlesWow. How BALLSY of them.
>>23787035Guess they didn't remember that ol' lullaby.
>>23787034Wanna bet the extraterrestrials are just humans who evolved under different conditions?
>>23787034>Mars setting>AgainSounds like the perfect opportunity for a proper IBO and Nadesico crossover in the next SRW.
>>23787034Sounds like reverse AGE.
>>23787034>Kamen Rider Kabuto Movie?Post-apocalyptic setting and the alien inavders can disguise themselves as human maybe
>>23785354yes
The Real Question is it's will be Yuri again??
So is Sunrise just not doing Gundam shows in-house anymore? This is the 3rd outsourced show in a row (Netflix, Quacks, This) after G-Witch.
>>23787152Obviously not.
>>23787034>Mars settingBoring
>>23787177it's a bit of reverse course correction after the large failure that was the gundam metaverse thing, they started lending out the gundam name for a shitton of collaboration deals (basically other companies could pay to use the gundam IP) and even allowing outside studios to develop gundam media, so bandai are getting cashflow from not just the deals but the tons of extra merchandise being createdit's a win-win for bandai since they don't need to stress internal studios or spend its own resources to continue putting out gundam media, so long as they have input on the project as well as final OK with the outside studio.https://www.animenewsnetwork.com/interest/2022-03-29/bandai-namco-offers-more-details-on-its-130m-gundam-metaverse-project/.184147https://archive.ph/20260318215250/https://asia.nikkei.com/editor-s-picks/interview/bandai-namco-s-sales-from-gundam-franchise-nearing-1.7bn-target-cfothat said, they still have internal projects like hathaway in the works (don't forget those guys on this board who vehemently insist thunderbolt and UC2 animation projects are still ongoing)
>>23784858Guess this means the romance will involve the alien waifu.
Different anon, description of the new gundam showhttps://tieba.baidu.com/p/10573390051>The main character is shown in the picture. The name is purely literal (Hachi); the Gundam design is much better than GQuuuuuuX. At first glance, you might mistake it for a 00 series Gundam. It's a very beautiful design, and there's more than one Gundam-type mobile suit. The enemies are aliens, but most of them don't look human.
>>23787314>The human forces' mission is to launch Operation Earth Recapture! I've always thought this kind of operational name was really cool.
>>23787316>The human army's Zaku-type mobile suits were utterly routed, trampled underfoot by the monster transformed from B2.>The melancholic Hachi, piloting his white Gundam, desperately tried to turn the tide.ps: The image and text are unrelated.
>>23787317>The Zero Gundam from the Martian base is Yūya's favorite machine. It would be funny if it were translated into Chinese as "Zero Gundam," haha.(Image shows the name)It's translated using google translate, if there's any mistranslation, feel free to corrent
>>23787320>White Gundam and Red Gundam, their enemies are alien monsters made of inorganic matter.Looking forward to some great mecha battles! Looking forward to the official release!
>>23787314>the Gundam design is much better than GQuuuuuuX. At first glance, you might mistake it for a 00 series GundamFirst red flag.
>>23787332it's time to admit gundam isn't for you
>>23787332Never heard of anyone disliking Ebikawa and Yanase around here
>>23787314>The name is purely literal (Hachi)So it's Eight? Would be cool if the manga is a prequel.
>>23787468I only liked their designs for 00, the rest of it was kind of middling and I couldn't get into it.
>>23787480Translation fuckery, so not sure. But the whole point is referring to MC design having similar traits to Kenshi Yonezu appearance. Hachi (ハチ) is Yonezu's stage name during his NND days, which translates to (八爷) in chinese and become kind of his go to nickname in chink SNS.
>>23787468Say whatever you want about Barbatos, Aerial and GCucks, but at least they tried to look unique and have their own identity. In fact, I'd probably add the Exia there, too. It would've been easy for Bandai to just keep doing what works and rehashing Strike Freedom-likes again and again, but instead they tried to do something new. "New Gundam AU main Gundam looks like previous Gundam" is a bad sign.
>>23787497Oh its going to be different alright. Its supposedly Linebarrel guy design after all. The horse leg alone will make it unique. Similarity is going to be literal "first glance" if its really him.
>>23787497Aerial is so genericI will not elaborate
