So there not going to be more Gquuux, right? No manga/light novel side stories or whatever?
>>
Blu Ray has some audio stories apparently.
>>
Why would you want more?
>>
>>23790366
I wouldn't completely rule out another anime project. I think Bandai not touching on it might be due to the anime staff wanting to come back to it at some later point, and Bandai wouldn't want to do their own thing on the side with manga since they aren't Sunrise staff working under them.

But, yeah, outside of that possibility it doesn't seem like we're getting anything. And even if it happens it could take years.
>>
>>23790396
Side-stories could have alternate takes on other UC characters and suits. They wouldn't be following the main cast of GQX.
>>
>>23790398
So you don't want more. You just want different fanfics altogether.
>>
Lalah creating this timeline ruined the entire show for me. The main trio were also bland and completely forgettable. It was just overall a cool premise that shit the bed completely.
>>
>>23790404
Same, but then I found a Japanese YouTube channel that is Lala speed running various universes (as you would a game) and Amuro somehow always getting ahead of Char.

She's a bizarre and interesting character with a cute design, and would have been a good thematic foil to Machu. I wish we got to see more of her before her death.

GQX had some of the best animation/scene composition, character designs, music, premise/set up, and vibes/atmosphere in Gundam, at least in the first half, but the plot and pacing were ass. It was all style with no substance.

Atleast Nyan had something going on with her character. Shuji and Amate were literall planks of wood.

Literally the same Khara staff that made Shin Eva, i don't think Bandai involve that much beside commissioning the mechs for merchandising.

Multiverse stuff aside GQuuuuuuX was really interesting. Seeing the alternate history and the implications that has on the UC timeline. There's a lot to dig into there. Also post-war underground MS fighting ring and space junk pirates is a cool premise that should've been the whole focus of the show.

>>23790593
That's what baffles me not just about this show, but other shows like it. I really don't get how something can have such competent artistic direction and virtually none of that talent pours over into the writing. Because it's not like the artists just came up with the imagery out of nowhere, it had to be guided or at least designed in collaboration with the writers. So for the show's narrative to just not live up to the beauty of its visuals confuses me.

I keep thinking about the show and even rewatched it because I felt like maybe there was something I missed?
>>
>>23790764
Shuji was a plank of wood. Amate is the whole "rich or upper middle class girl who wants to hang out with hooligans because of popular media and teenage angst". It's an interesting idea, and could've even led to some profound storytelling, but the issue is that they don't use what little time they have to focus on that tension and instead devote too much of it to the Char prequel stuff and side characters who go nowhere.

The series really looses itself somewhere in the span of episodes between Deux and the Lalah reveal.

The first 4 episodes I thought were very solid though. The Unicum pilot that Shuji killed was a neat foil to Machu in how she was selfishly chasing an empty desire that only made things worse. Machu's story should've led into that direction by having her parallel that and grow up from the childish ambitions she had. There's traces of such a conclusion in the finale, but it seems to be something they're not concerned about.
>>
The joke theory that Machu was an AU Haman was way more amusing than anything that happened in the actual show.

Do you have any idea how stacked the visual staff of this show is? The description is probably much lamer than what these artists create.

Since the ending is a sequel bait, i want to see an actual sequel.
>>
>>23790980
>the ending is a sequel bait
It's other way around.
While there are a ton of potential events you can explore in that world, the ending tried to conclude pretty much everything that pertained to the character arcs.
Honestly, it might be better off just getting compilation movies, considered how it's initial success was thanks for cinemagoers anyway.

The ending only concludes Char's storyarc. Amate and Nyan are wanted criminals on the run, Shuji probably went to some alternative dimensions with a promise of his return. It definitely implies that " this is not over yet".

I love how fan artists always draw her super stacked when the canon proportion is nowhere near this level.

It's exaggerated in fan art but she actually is pretty stacked for her body size. Not like massive giga tits, but a more reasonable kind of big tiddy.

And that's fine for them. They had other options that they decided not to act upon, but this is what they chose.
>Shuji probably went to some alternative dimensions with a promise of his return.
Shuji's reunion with Machu is one of those things that you're not really supposed to actually want to see, but more of a thing that you're supposed to believe that it will happen.

True, I want a sequel where they're properly thrown in jail or given the death sentence.

I was so confused by the last few episodes I pretty much checked out. Felt like an acid trip. Looked neat I guess and I got a good laugh out of the dunbine ending. But a sequel?
>>
>>23790658

>>
>>23791188

>multiverse shit they pulled last minute

I'd argue Challia's claim as to how the Rose of Sharon appeared and it being shown to the viewer that it's an Elmeth (which as Challia claimed wasn't invented in GQuuuuuuX's UC) were what foreshadowed that there are many Universal Centuries and that they can be connected.
>>
>>23791076
I'm more in favour of a sequel chronicling how they make a living pleasing old men. There is already basis for Machu being a promising working girl

>>23791225
Maybe they could hookup with Cardeas Vist?
