Mobile Suit Zeta Gundam remake, but everyone has their designs from the Tomino novels. (Y/N?)
Gotta say, I quite like Space Albino Haman.
Space Pirate Captain Aznable (glorious peroxide mane edition).
A very different Scirocco than the one we got in the show.
Not really feeling this Four design, but I'd love to see it in motion.
Anyway, how about those mechs?
>>23869618Top looks like if duel had a baby with calamity and gp02
>>23869571It would be interesting
>first volume is called 『KAMILLE BIDAN』>Char still steals the cover10/10, no notes.>>23869598https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fxkBD3kbpUA
>>23869571>remakeNo.>remixYes. Something like what gqux did is better than a straight up remake.
>>23869571Stylish AF
>>23869571>>23869589Novel Haman looks similar enough to Lady Gaga that I can't not ignore it, and that kinda scares me...
>>23869618This is amazing. If only.
The Zeta novels were never translated were they?
>>23869571>>23869589I hate the hat.
>>23870439>The Zeta novels were never translated were they?Officially? No.>>23870441>I hate the hat.The hat stays (so do the 80s shoulderpads).
>>23869571you realize that would at best be like 20 episodes right?
>>23870446Not seeing the problem
>>23869571>>23869589>>23870444I like to imagine that her hair contains cybernetic filaments that interface with the Qubeley and turn the rest of her hair hot pink when the suit's in combat.
>>23870439all 5 of them are fan translated.
>>23869571absolute cinema
>>23870497
Why wasn’t he ever given a chance to do a Gundam?
>>23870650There are a lot of interviews, look them up
>>23870655Sad that SRW never got his mecha either
>>23870650Bandai didn't like his designs.
>>23869618Mamoru Nagano's designs are so distinctive, I can't shake the feeling that those are Mortar Headds.
>>23870680Bandai can go fuck a nuke.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TOxJpPiFe0k
>>23870650His stuff is too alien looking.
>>23870965Unique
Aren't these just Nagano drawing Gundam ppl?
>>23869571Given Bandai's willingness to experiment, I could see this as some sort of GQUX-like reimagining, but from Nagano's studio or in partnership with Nagano and a neutral 3rd party studio, years after the fact.
>>23870819Emma being blonde feels wrong.
>>23870441that's not a hat.
>>23871561It looks like a wide-brimmed hat of the Princess Sapphire variety, but minus the top ornament.
>>23871974This is, of course, further evidence that Haman is secretly a fallen magical girl.
>>23870472>fan translatedBy the same guy who I don't think is very goodI'm surprised he hasn't been taken down because he asks for money for his TL
>>23872131>who I don't think is very goodBlame Tomino for being a shit writer.
>>23872133Nah tomino is fine ( he's still basic, but fine) the guy just isn't that good of a tl.
>>23872136Different anon, but on the topic of that guy's translation choices, I've been sitting here staring at the screen for a minute, trying to figure out if the rendered "Maria Callas" as "Maria Kalas" because he's some kind of a katakana-syllabary-to-English-phonemes purist or because he just didn't think to himself "hey, I wonder if this is a real person whose name I can look up for the correct spelling?"
>>23869571Yes, but only if it has a synthwave soundtrack.
>>23872098Cursed image.Yurusenai
>>23873250Don't worry anon, she's still Minky deep down.
>>23873264seems like there should be something with Mashy, Gotton, and Chara as the animals
>>23872131Zeta novels were commissioned to him, last volume got a bit of crowd funding.
>>23869618those pseudo-rick diases are beautiful
>>23872338It probably just appeared like that somewhere in English. Don't pretend Sunrise doesn't officially think one of the Shrike Team members is named "Kite Bush." >>23872136When Tomino started the novels, he made a conscious effort to change a bunch of details to help differentiate it from the anime. As things wore on, he kept going back and referencing events from the anime even if he'd already changed them for the books. It got to the point where he had an afterword apologizing for not sticking to his guns to keep it distinctly separate from the TV show. Even Japanese people who like his books (like the Byston Well series) wish they were better written.
>>23873464>Don't pretend Sunrise doesn't officially think one of the Shrike Team members is named "Kite Bush."I take your point, but in this case it's referring to the historical Maria Callas.
>>23873467Why would anyone assume thats a real person and look it up when theyre translating a book from a guy infamous for his made up retarded namesI'm pretty widely versed in history and never heard of it, the average person surely would not either
>>23873477Curiosity.
>>23873479Youre an idiot, take the L and pretend you're a different anon
Craziest Tomino novel is Gaia Gear
>>23873488I mean, it's what prompted me to look the name up.
>>23873497Did you look up Quattro Vagina and Haman Karn too?
>>23873504The first one, no, because it's an obvious pun and I already knew Tomino is a James Bond fan. Haman I did look up though because I'd assumed it was a combination of the Biblical name "Haman" with the title "Khan", but I wanted to know for sure.Can't say I was expecting the real answer (picrel).>名前の由来はアメリカの未来学者であるハーマン・カーン[要出典]。『月刊ニュータイプ』創刊号でインタビューを受けた時点での富野監督は、アナグラムを加えず「ハーマン」の名で呼び、『機動戦士Ζガンダム』第8話にてアクシズの話題が出た際に、シャアから「ハマー・カーン」と呼ばれるなど、名称の変遷が窺える。https://ja.wikipedia.org/wiki/ハマーン・カーン
>>23873526Then you translate something my friend. Be the change you want to see
>>23873530Fair point.
>>23873526Fat, balding AU Haman when?
>>23873869ZZ plays out basically the same way, but the devastation of Dublin is caused by her dropping her chins on it.
>>23870819>as if she was one of the chosen fewFirst off, were*. Second, was she not?
>>23874003It's Emma seen from Bright's POV, not from an objective omniscient narrator's.
>>23874007Did he not know she was selected as a test pilot for the Titans' new limited-run testbed mobile suits?
>>23874013The implication is that Bright sees the Titans as upstarts.
>>23869571>>23869589I like this more than Zeta's adult Minky Momo.
I was skeptical because I hate remakes and reboots and all that stuff, but having seen the designs posted here I change my mind. I want to see this
>>23870698Makes him sound like a one-trick pony.
>>23869618That white cloud is my semen
>>23874021Ditto. The desaturated hair and skin and spindly body type give you a stronger impression of her as someone who grew up at the outer edges of settled space, in a low-gravity environment.>>23874038Nagano is a god.
>>23872098We all know Truck-Kun isekai'd Momo into the UC universe, she already proved her prowess as a mecha pilot in her home universe, there's literally no room for debate that she was reborn as Haman.
>>23874825Why does Minky Momo want Char Aznable to cum inside of her so badly?
>>23874828Because he's dreamy and she can fix him
>>23874834The only way you can fix Char is to beat him to death with a hammer.
>>23874847>with a Gundam HammerFTFY
>>23870677Only Brain Powerd, afaik. I'm happy with that.
>Kamille looks so effeminate in the novels that ojisans think he's a girl and hit on him
>>23876120>>23870677How can you forget L-Gaim?In fact, one SRW snuck in a Mirage unit since it technically came from an L-Gaim art book
>>23873404Ricky D'Ass is my favorite Gundam pilot.
>>23876168DELET THIS
>>23876639Gomen. Please accept this Fa in a suit in recompense.
>>23876168
>>23876811The implications...
where's that image of haman standing on her chairi need it
>>23876168You can't look at this and tell me it's not BUILT for old men
>>23878299>>23876815>>23876168Kamille is a completely normal young man whom circumstances indicate are feminine because the actual sexes have been integrated into the gender of [Pilot]the women are unsexed so the only outlet is pederasty100% consistent with the other sexual themes of the work as a whole
>>23878374If this is ""unsexed"" then I am a Ken doll.
>>23876168>>23878299Getting into dangerous territory here.
>>23878374>Kamille is a completely normal young man
>>23878401He is the Hephaestion to Char's Alexander.
>>23878374>Kamille is a completely normal young manKamille dictated this post to Fa.>>23877905Literally the first archive result for "haman chair" and "Only With Images".
Turns out there's another reason Char wears dark glasses in Zeta... Though now that I think about it, doesn't the anime consistently show him with a slight squint whenever he takes the glasses off?
>>23878374>the women are unsexed so the only outlet is pederastyWUT
>>23878299You think there were any ZZ doujin of him being groped by dirty ojisan whenever Fa wasn't taking care of him early on?
>>23879055doing this to char.
>>23879490How Kubrick.
>>23879055>to prevent the pilot's own sense of visual identification from being thrown offWhat's that even mean?
>>23882070Presumably the pilot's own ability to interpret incoming visual data, as distinct from the computer's.
>>23882421What's that got to do with photosensitivity?
>>23883301I honestly don't know, anon. Either the translation is unclear or we're both missing something obvious.
>>23882070as someone who has light sensitivity i would presume this means how char actually sees things. there is a high difference between the sports wear like glasses he wears and 'normal' vision. even the tint of the glasses makes a difference. i would just think of it as "char's normal vision' here
>>23879055>>23882421>>23883301>>23883426my guess is that while the computer can do "smart" things like dim blinding flashes or whatever, that's only one part of the whole thing. it's ultimately up to the pilot to take care of his vision and be aware to be able to see and fight well. this can be anything like taking care of one's eyes with eye drops and rest, wearing protective eyewear, or having personal settings applied on the computer monitor that's more comfortable to him.
>>23883543After re-reading the passage, this seems the most likely interpretation.
>>23869610That Psycho Gundam is amazing.
>>23884754Genuinely tragic that it only exists as a cover image.
>>23883543>Gelgoog Jäger>Galbaldy β>Zaku II Kai>HizackI feel like my presbyopia's getting worse.
>>23884754It's the Zeta.
the Nagano Zeta looks are interesting enough I'd like to see something play with them, like that weird cel-shade-ish thing they tried for MGS2 that looked like the sketchy character design styletbdesu I wouldn't be surprised if issues came up with them doing much more than posing dramatically, now that I think about it
>>23870412DOHOHOHO
>>23884754>Psycho>h
>>23886640you only drop the H when referring to the man-machine interface, and even then not always
>>23886229YOU AN ME COULD RIDE A BARREL MAN.
>>23886712KekShe would be godly as a soundtrack feature. Shows up at the premiere either in full mobile suit cosplay or a stuffed into a latex mobile trace suit.
>>23886640I promise I originally wrote it that way and then looked it up to make sure I was spelling it correctly (I was not, Psycho is correct).
>>23886229>Westernized HamanAbsolutely not.
>>23886229>not posting that one magazine appearanceYou're doing it wrong.>>23888331Hair needs to be more flared.
Wish there was more fanart based on the Nagano designs.
>>23888331What's her racial origin in the show? "Haman Karn" always sounded Persian to me.
>>23888395>not posting that one magazine appearanceWhich one?>>23888331Lady Gaga Haman was mentioned. Lady Gaga Haman was provided. Chill yourself fren.
>>23889416>"Haman Karn" always sounded Persian to me.You'd think so, but no >>23873526
>>23889418The one where she's literally got Haman's hair, vivid pink coloration and everything.
>>23888331I feel like a 'western' look works better with her alternate hair style.
>>23890808Honestly glad they didn't keep that look. It looked fine when her hair was wet, but silly when it wasn't.
>>23890808DAT BULGE
>>23891513Don't get excited, it's just where she keeps her roses.
>>23892576No wonder she's always in such a foul mood.
>>23890808Looks sexy as he....>See crotch.Huh, she has a forest or something else?
>>23893936>>23891513Incels really dont have any clue what female anatomy looks like I guess
>>23892576you've heard of La Vie En Rose?La Rose In V
>>23894002You realize it's a meme, do you not?
>>23892576So that's what ZZ meant by the roses having Haman's scent on them.
>>23894591I don't think he does, anon.
>>23879280Reccoa and Haman both exhibit MALE heterosexuality, not female heterosexualityEmma and Quattro consciously unsex themselves (with Casval even taking on a feminine name to stand opposing Haman's becoming his New Father: pederasty again)
>>23896550What the FUCK did I just read and how do I get my time back?
>>23890018Just went through the archive and couldn't find it by filename. It may have been someone else.
>>23878384Condolences on your emasculation.
>>23894065>La Vie En RoseHaman, that mercurial witch.
>>23900100You seem to have conflated her with Suletta.
>>23888331Next you'll be saying you don't want British Bright Noa or French Char Aznable.
>>23871071Yes, but the designs are noticeably different. I like them.
>>23873526Gundam has the stupidest naming conventions and nearly all of it is a bitter spite at itself from cynical creators.
>>23901167It's actually just my pained attempt to toot my horn while staying on topic. ~LaVie EnRose~
>>23904351~C'estlavie~
>>23904356Sayla vie.
>>23905067kek
>>23905067
>>23906108As expected.
>>23906108Shoulda posted Seravee.
>>23908127There some reason you didn't post it yourself?
>>23873526I remember reading on Wikipedia about one time he sat in on a briefing where military officers went over their nuclear strategy in the event the Cold War went hot and it was interspersed throughout with metaphors referencing the reproductive act, and when they concluded and he was prompted for his evaluation of it, he replied, "Gentlemen, what you have here isn't a strategy, what you have here is a wargasm!" For some reason that article has since vanished from the site and I haven't been able to find anything about it anywhere else.
>>23888331Not enough flare.
>>23873464>Don't pretend Sunrise doesn't officially think one of the Shrike Team members is named "Kite Bush."Might just be trying to avoid a lawsuit.
>>23914272I didn't realize they were as litigious over name dropping foreigners in Japan.
>>23915823Care to finish that comparison?
>>23917110
>>23917119Not what I asked but you do you.
>>23903711Yet that's been standard practice ever since the original series.
>>23919583This will never not be funny.
>>23904351Next time just post htps://youtu.be/sPLWwfo45kA and keep it relevant.

>>23925173Why you hate the tanooky tho?
>>23925029should have been mio, sulletta is too retarded and kind to be haman
>>23925620Hair's the wrong color, though.
>>23926948Stature, complexion and disposition are right, though.
>>23879490What, scorching his retinas?
>>23926948Eyes too.
>>23925029Rather fitting for Guel.
>>23925173Then don't post things that make you physically ill.
>>23876170Didn't Nagano take that personally?
>>23876170>>23933408That's the Blood Temple which was already a Heavy Metal, not the LED Mirage from FSS. Nagano doesn't own it, Bandai does. I doubt he even knows or cares what SRW is.
>>23870677>Zeta>L-Gaim>Brain Powerdlarp larp larp
Opinion: I think Ishiguro could have done FSS justice.
>>23934018Then why hasn’t a single mecha of his been in any game?
>>23935043because you're illiterate
>>23935111Actually blind
>>23935043>>23934018Looking at the Japanese SRW wiki page for it, unlike the Ex-S gundam that got cut from the official guidebook at the time, the Blood Temple was still there, so it doesn't seem like there were any actual legal troubles, they might just avoid using it afterwards to -avoid- potential problems.That said, future games avoided even saying its name. The L-Gaim MkII is said to use the head of a Blood Temple (each unit had a custom head), and in SRW30 they just referenced it as a "powerful ancient heavy metal" without even naming it. So, it's clear they're actively avoiding bringing it up directly.
>>23935233>>23934023like I said, illiterate
>>23935260Nigger Bandai literally made their own merch of the Blood Temple and licensed it out to GK companies. They own it. They decide whether it goes in games they make.
>>23935334>>23935260Oh and this officially licensed trading card came out over a year after it was in SRW IV.
>>23935260>So, it's clear they're actively avoiding bringing it up directly.They're not avoiding it at all. It's in the official guidebooks alongside the other Heavy Metals.
>>23935334>>23935343>>23935358fucking hilarious that Blood Temple showed up in a game but Pagorta never did
>>23935329What the fuck did you mean if you didn't mean that?
>>23935343I mean, I did say it was in a SRW IV guidebook at the time and there was no legal trouble while they committed the EX-S. Everything that you posted just lines up with my info. It doesn't change that in modern material they didn't even want to mention its name.Both the Blood Temple design (as LED Mirage) and the name (as an unrelated design) are used in Five Star Stories. The name Five Star Stories itself originates from Nagano concepts for L-Gaim, so I'm pretty sure Nagano sees himself owning these unused concepts.There was never any actual legal dispute though yeah, but it HAS disappeared from modern material. Showing cards from the time of SRWIV and an old book with yellowed pages doesn't contradict this info at all.
>>23936009>Both the Blood Temple design (as LED Mirage) and the name (as an unrelated design) are used in Five Star Stories. The name Five Star Stories itself originates from Nagano concepts for L-Gaim, so I'm pretty sure Nagano sees himself owning these unused concepts.Bullshit. "Blood Temple" isn't trademarked. Nagano doesn't own it because there's nothing to own. And he can't own it because it was explicitly mentioned in the show, side materials, and used by Bandai to make items and license out to to other companies. Bandai simply decided that it's an unimportant name/design not worth doing anything with because it's not physically in the show just like Pagorta. Unless you can demonstrate them selling this non-existent trademark to Nagano, there's nothing to show that he has any power over Bandai to force their hand on a design and name he doesn't own.By the way half of FSS reuses names from L-Gaim. Ashura Temple, Batshu, Helmine, Cavalry Temple, Mk-II and so on are all simultaneously and still are used on both modern L-Gaim and FSS items.
>>23936009>they stopped using something, that means they don't own it anymoreholy fuck you retards need to go outside
>>23936197Then why they did SRW30 mention the Blood Temple while avoiding saying its name?Also, I'm not saying there was a legal battle or anything. Yeah, that never happened. I'm just saying Bandai in later years avoided touching on it to avoid any possible issues with Nagano. Back in the 90s, it was very easy for stuff like this go through without one of the parties learning about it (which is why the Sentinel conflict really started, it was over accusations of unauthorized use about things the original author only learned about after the fact).
>>23936256Because it's not important. Sorry if the answer is too boring for you. Maybe they thought writing that made it more mysterious. Doesn't change the fact that it's still part of the show's lore and plot, and said show just got its BD released last year. >I'm just saying Bandai in later years avoided touching on it to avoid any possible issues with Nagano. Bandai doesn't give a fuck about Nagano's feelings and would gladly steamroll him like how they fired him three times from Gundam. And if Nagano really had some dirt that could bend Bandai to his will, you really think Blood Temple is all he cares about?
>>23936256Sentinel was an actual rights issue because it was owned by Hobby Japan, not Bandai.
>>23936256>>23936271Blood Temple isn't even important in FSS, it's just a mook that only stood around getting destroyed and doesn't even have a colored lineart like the other MH. It also looks nothing like LED Mirage.
>>23935043>>Then why hasn’t a single mecha of his been in any game?except all the L-Gaim mechs and gundams he designed?
>>23936302He doesn't own the IP rights to those.
>>23936405goalpost moving
>>2393640599% of the designs in SRW aren't owned by their designers, retard.
>>23869571>>23869589>>23869610>>23870325I like how stylish these designs are, feels very much in line with the futurist movement from the atomic age rather than the more grounded and industrial futurism UC ended up developing into. Would be neat to see a Gundam entry with an aesthetic like this. For the barrel also has a similar look.What does Kamille look like in this interpretation?>>23870377Remix is a good way to put it. Much like For the Barrel.
