So apparently this is the new leaked Gundam. Can this leaker be trusted?
We already talked about this cheap AI false alarm>>23864146 if this was a actual leak, Bamco would had done something about it, plus the Conference was a nothingburger on new series, not even a tease.
>>23875936I'm glad it's not real because it looks like shit
I'm not convinced the fake was AI, it was too consistent between images/mediums.But the fact that they supposedly had plamo ready with no intent to even tease the idea of the series to the public seems hard to believe.
>>23876074You are an actual secondary.
I hope it's fake because it's so lame. Why ask Shimizu for designs if you're gonna be this generic?
>>23875919Speaking of leaks, have you seen the footage and photos for the live action? It seems to be UC.
>>23875919It's a leak by the same people who leaked GCucks shit and constantly and accurately leak Bandai's Tokusatsu stuff. It's as good as confirmed, >>23875936 is a retard who doesn't know the Chinks get away with leaking this kind of shit all the time.>>23876074You're a genuine retard as well.
>>23878956It's fake
>>23878966I swear on your mother's life that it's legit.
Whether it's real or fake, I just don't want to see another femMC. Shit sucks.
>>23879297There's 3 leads, but the main protag who pilots the main Gundam is a dude. The sole girl of the trio isn't confirmed to pilot anything yet.
>>23879313she better pilot something
>>23878952They seem to be shooting Brisbane to actually be a location in Australia too based on the banners, which is interesting.Also kinda neat seeing Hawkeis and Bushmasters done up as EFF trucks.
>>23879891>movie is actually a random movie set in Australia without any hints to being gundam >the plot plays normally but right when it's about to end the characters look at the sky and the colony hits them showing us a scene like when the zentradi nuke earth
>>23879912Remember Me remake set in Universal Century.You know what I'd watch it. Can't be worse than making a coming-of-age film where the twist ending is 9/11.
>>23879916>>23879912They've already (implied) it's post construction of the Gundam (and probably post oyw presuming they're not retarded) unless the flag is just a novelty item the crew have around for fun of it. 4:04There will be mobile suits in the film, at least a Zaku.9:55https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MTVBFCM63xM&t=71s
>>23880216Holy fuck that's a damn zaku lol. I'm more excited for this now knowing it's UC
>>23880216>>23880429I thought this just became the CGI Netflix show I can't believe they are actually doing this.
>>23875919Woah! This is amazing! Can’t wait for this to release!
>>23880216Honestly the set leaks have me a lot more interested than I was before. Not excited as such but I'm curious where they're going with it.>>23880456Nah, totally unrelated projects. I think RfV was more to do with experimenting with handing a series to an external studio akin to GQ, and probably testing the waters on alternative mediums and western involvement in production. There was also that VR OVA-ish thing, Silver Phantom, around the same time that was made by I think a French studio.
>>23878952>Making a live action movie in the US right after an movie adaptation about chud assassinating inept and corrupted politicians in a gundamnuOh boy
>>23880517While it's a US production it's being filmed in Australia, which is also pretty topical to Hathaway.
>>23876128I mean historically, look at how much bitching there is from Gundam fags whenever a Gundam doesn't look like RX-78 with shit tacked onto it. GQ, Barb, Turn A, hell even Zeta was so panned back in the day that ZZ's primary design requirement was "it has to look like a Gundam". Kawamori mentioned in an interview in Hobby Japan that he'd probably be crucified if he had designed GP02A today:>Kawamori: To put it bluntly, as long as it has a V-antenna, it looks like a Gundam to me (laughs). I don’t know how people felt back then, but if it were today, the GP02A would probably have sparked a massive backlash with people saying, ‘This isn’t a Gundam at all.’
>>23880517You are looking directly at an Australian-produced vehicle only in service with the ADF, in Brisbane, on a way to a set with banners containing imagery of redback spiders, boomerangs, the southern cross and the continent itself as EFF unit patches.Curiously one also has what's clearly an RX-78 head on it which suggests Brissy isn't filling in for Sydney before the colony drop.
>>23878956Yeah, seems valid.
>>23880541I feel like a lot of these "the fans hate non-Gundam Gundams" bitching is from old boomers who are out of touch. Nobody whined about GQuuuuuux's design. People fucking loved Barbatos and Aerial. Gp02 would be loved now as a new Gundam more than ever.
>>23881020>actually everyone loves everything and nobody complains ever
>>23881020>Nobody whined about GQuuuuuux's designNobody whined, but a lot of people rightfully pointed out that it looks like shit.
>>23881029See you got a whiner right here.
>>23881031Ah yes. You have to love everything or else you're a whiner. What a reasonable and not at all moronic cattle position to take.
>>23879297there is nothing wrong with femmcs they literally just needed to do a genderswap of amuro or kamille instead of playing into moe archetypes with suletta or doing what the fuck ever with machu
>>23881036>whine
>>23881040There are 3 MCs this time around, so we're still getting two dudes.
So what else can we expect out of Gundam this year?
>>23881087char vibrator 2.0
>>23881377Fuck off, Office Lady Haman.
>>23881388Kek.
>>23881377Piss off, Lalah.
>UC>AustraliaHe's in
>>23881377Get lost, Nanai.
>>23881040Machu was just like episode 1 Kamille except she never got better due to kira kira frying her brain.
I just want a new Gundam AU.
Was GQuuuuuuX the last mainline AU or a side project like G-Reco was? Also, is Sunrise still gonna animate the next big AU or are they gonna keep outsourcing for smaller projects?
>>23883901This AU is being handled by another studio.
>>23883906Yeah, I know, Production I.G, I wonder if it's a mainline or a side-project given that the leaked episode count was 12-13.
>>23881029>>23881026Of course there were complaints but there wasn't anything like the overwhelming lashback against Age in Japan back when it was first revealed and people started doomposting about how it would be summoned with a magic smartphone and other stupid toku toy shit
>>23883901>>23883906>>23883914Will Sunrise ever do another in-house AU?
Still waiting on that 00 sequel, the director says it's still happening and his word's better than some rando's online.
>>23883938You know it's funny, it was such an issue then but it barely even registered to most people that in WfM the mobile suits used as the school all use phones to authenticate the pilot.They seem to get emails through them while still docked to the suits, which suggests distracted piloting is not considered as severe a danger as distracted driving.
>>23884003I trust the plan.
Does the Dark History include Seed, 00, AGE, Iron-Blooded Orphans and The Witch from Mercury? They all came out after the Dark History chart and Turn A.
>>23884100If you take the intent as being more a symbolic accepting of AUs as valid and a way of acknowledging them as 'real' Gundam then yes.If you take it as literally what was on the chart then no.
>>23884100They're included in the light of life special (aside from Witch which didn't exist at the time), so yeah.Officially, only Build Fighters and SD Gundam are left out, if you go by what model kits and other written material say. Well, I guess they haven't addressed GQX yet which is an outright alternate version of the original UC.
>>23884108>>23884111Interesting, thanks, Anons. I'm also wondering because Rita in the Phenex and ELS Setsuna might still be flying around the galaxy.
>>23884114That would be something.
>>23884114The point is more Tomino acknowledging AUs as the heirs to his own work than it is creating a literal unified continuity. It's a way of saying he might not personally like all of them, but they're all Gundam.
>>23884151I'd still want a Turn A sequel that more openly acknowledges the Dark History. It's been 27 years, it's about time we revisited the Correct Century since G-Reco's status as a sequel is contested by Sunrise.
>>23884163Retard.
>>23884163Acknowledging it how exactly?
>>23884178Like seeing tech from previous eras, kinda like how Corin Nander had the Gundam Aesculapius in the manga.
>>23878952>it's actually happening
>>23878952Like actual UC or Alternate UC like The Origin, Thunderbolt and GQuuuuuuX? Also, please don't be set in the One Year War, getting so fucking sick of that time period.
>>23880541I feel like nowadays the GP02 itself wouldn't be an issue since it's not a "main" Gundam. It's the main suits that get complaints about not looking like Gundams.
>>23884195From the supposed plot summary it's not the OYW since the two rival pilots mentioned have been fighting for years
>>23884195It's probably not OYW. Other set leak photos have what looks like a banner of a unit logo incorporating an RX-78 head, and you'd have like a one month strike window to roll that out during the war, which also wouldn't make much sense if you're not operating it. Makes more sense if it's a reference to a prior war instead.Also saw practical chunks of what're most likely Zaku II feet, so maybe they're doing something 0083-y.As for if it's intended to be canon to animated UC or not, who knows. Prior statements had people thinking it wasn't even UC before these images.
>>23884222That's a relief.
>>23884223Thank God, we have enough OYW stuff as it is.
How come no one posted the pics?
>>23884256Good question. These are all from up in NSW, in and around Brisbane mainly. I don't have it to hand but I think there's also a reverse shot of this which shows more of the actual practical prop, it looks like they're shooting a fireteam breaching a Zaku's cockpit.
The EFF trucks here are Hawkeis and Bushmasters, probably on loan from the Australian Army.
Seen some suggestions that this one's meant to be Parkes Observatory, best known for being one of the three receivers that picked up the Apollo 11's video downlink and responsible for most of the official NASA television feed, and obviously the Southern Cross is there too.
Boomerangs and a redback, not winning any prizes for originality but it gets the location across.
Got what's clearly an RX-78 head, even has the proper white V-fin. The stylisation of Australia doesn't seem to have the damage from the colony drop, but it's also missing Tasmania and a lot of other things so you could take that as a sign they'd rather remember how it was then accurately depict how it is. Could also mean an alt UC where Operation British didn't go down the same way but probably less likely.
>>23884275Not Ozzie enough. Needs didgeridoos, emus, Vegmites, Veebs and Acca Dacca m8.
Last one I have to hand, just a plain old EF logo.I think there's some others floating about if you want to look though.
>its live action rise from the ashesfinally, Fedwank
>>23884261>Up in NSWEven further, up in Queensland. No idea how I fucked that up, I think I've had my Gold Coast priviliges revoked for that.
>>23884272>>23884275>>23884280Goddamn these look so cheap. Thanks for the pics anon.
>>23884286>Ozzie>>23884308I think they look alright, hard to say from these pictures. Also don't know how visible they're even expected to be for that matter.
>>23884312They are very uninspired and flat looking. For some reason western productions always cheap out on the design departments.
>>23884328I think most of them would look more convincing on a woven patch with the specific unit details around it. The presentation of just the logos without text or any of the texture you get for free with a real patch isn't helping them.We'll see I guess. Wouldn't say I'm looking forward to it but these have at least made me kind of curious.
>>23884334>most of them would look more convincing on a woven patch with the specific unit details around itFair enough, they might look better like that. But why display them as banners in the windows? Is that something military actually does?
>>23884337I've certainly seen similar in sci-fi before. Big-ass roundels or ship badges to break up empty surfaces.I suspect their primary job here is a diegetic way to control the light coming in and maybe avoid needing skyline replacements in shots.
>>23883914>given that the leaked episode count was 12-13That's the standard count for anime now.
Can someone provide plot details for the leak?
>>23884425I second this.
So down the pipeline we have the 0079 remaster, Hathaway 3, UC2, the 00 sequel, Seed Freedom Zero, the Wing project, the Production I.G anime and the live action movie. Did I miss anything?
>>23884618>UC2, the 00 sequel, Seed Freedom Zero, the Wing project,Kek no way you retards think these will actually go through?
>>23884619Seed Freedom Zero and the new Gundam Wing project already had official announcements. UC2 and 00 S3 are just vague Twitter postings.
>>23884620Seiji Mizushima, the director of 00 said it will be out by 2027 for the 20th anniversary during a Gundam Cafe event.
>>23884618>UC2,THERE AINT NO UNICORN 2 AND THERE NEVER WAS
>>23884620UC2 was in an old timeline with future projects. They won't start working on it before Hathaway's Flash is over though.
>>23884005Well that's probably because things like virtual IDs to activate things are way more common now
>>23884288Unironically a good idea; plausible even.The only problem I see is they've already made HGs of all the suits, even Donahue's shitty customs and they're all P-Bandai...
Think they'll give the live action movie a new title or will they just call it Mobile Suit Gundam?
>>23884328The Gundam head with the Earth in the background looks like it came out of an old MSV book, I like it.
I think I miss the Build series.
>>23884328> For some reason western productions always cheap out on the design departments.Compared to what? Japanese movies?
>>23884761Even something cheap like Kamen Rider looks cool as fuck compared to billion dollar productions in hollywood.
>>23875919no femprotagno schoolshitthat's all i ask
>>23884666If it's not a direct adaption then they can use different suits, or they can do it Thunderbolt/RfV/The Origin/etc style and just give them alternative designs for the same suits.
>>23884652Narrative being so bad that it completely derailed Bandai's cash cow and plan to finally solve the issue of UC accessibility is the funniest shit to me.>>23884719I reckon it'll get a subtitle, but the subtitle will be more for official and fan use while marketing will just focus on MSG. Could also see them dropping the 'mobile suit' part and titling it like RfV. Main thing is they'll be trying to balance the brand association with not scaring off people by making it sound like it comes with homework.Least likely option but I could imagine them trying to launch some kind of branding like the Star Wars standalones used. [whatever the fuck]: A Gundam Story or something.
>>23884790Then you're in luck.
You guys think the live action Gundam movie will get an animated spinoff?
>>23885193Probably not, I think that's a conversation for after it comes out.
>>23885193It will probably end up memoryholed like that other western gundam show they did recently.
>>23875919Oh please not another ugly modernist design.
>>23885239Like what?
>>23875919>literally just the mirasoul backpackThis can only be real if it's another build fighters series.
>>23885497The wrist components look a lot like an upsized version of one of Aerial's funnels too. The face profile with the 'jaw' under the chin is a little reminiscent of Lfrith now that I"m looking closer as well.
What else are we getting?
>>23885569Wing and 00 sequel.
>>23885497>>23885531The schizo copes are starting to pop up...
>>23882499Buddy was in elementary school by the OYW, although a cameo would be nice
>>23886788Happens with the status of the 00 sequel as well.
>>23886788>>23886929This.
>>23885193Tie-in videogame with anime-styled character sprites is the best you can hope for
>>23887053That's honestly better. I dread another western Gundam animated series like Requiem for Vengeance.
>>23886788Don't know why it happens, this Gundam design has to be the most inoffensively safe one since the AGE-1.
>>23886784Katoki's put himself in a corner with the Snow White, since no matter how much he hypes up the new hidden design as being mysterious and radical, it's restricted by its usage of existing Wing Zero and Proto-Zero parts. The only thing truly "groundbreaking" you could add would be G-Unit-style hardpoints for attaching the cloak to the body
>>23887104Well, it's cheap Gunpla, kinda like how all of the upgrades in Seed Freedom were minor.
>>23887105Destiny's "upgrade" was so lame.
>>23886929This year's April Fool's prank being 00 related is just like Capcom's Devil May Cry April Fool's joke at the time being playable Vergil, it's happening, they're just gonna fuck with us, first.
>>23887205The next year DMC: Special Edition with Playable Vergil was announced and next year it's 00's 20th anniversary. Those nips know what they're doing.
>>23887205>>23887229This site's too autistic to read between the lines.
>>23887205>>2388722900fags, we're eating good.
>>23887394Wingfags, too.
>>23887410I wish Gfags and Xfags got something...
>>23887104he's not even hyping it; doesn't even have a twitter like the other designers. it's all fandom trying to 4d chess explain it.
>>23887420Try being a Turn Afag.
>>23887420Xfags deserve nothing.
>>23887426Yet as I said, the only truly unexpected thing they could add would be a connection to the Geminass
>>23884751Hard to believe that we're about as far from GBF as GBF was from US's Wing airing/Turn A.>>23885057Gonna be like the new Bond game, something in the subtitle to signal, "Hey you can hop on here."
>>23886788How is commenting on similarities cope for anything?Don't tell me you think people are implying this is a sequel instead of a new AU, anon...
>>23887628The first schizo literally said this can only be real if it's from a Build Fighters show and the other one agreed and added more fuel to the fire, retard.
>>23887631I took that more as disbelief that they're doing something with that strong a visual similarity to something else than a literal statement but you do you.
>>23887633They don't believe it's for the new AU, that's why they're claiming they straight up took specific parts of other MS to rationalize their theory that it's either a fake or a Build design.
>>23887645>Anon is a psychicI do believe it's for the new AU, I just think it has some bits that look similar.
Are all new AUs gonna be shorter from now on?
>>23887653I hope not.
>>23887960Same.
>>23887653G-Witch was half the length of a standard AU.
>>23888795And then G-qux was half that again. At this rate, by 2035 a new AU will be a 20 second flash of new designs.
>>23888798Was GQuuuuuuX the last mainline AU or a side project?
>>23888800Depends who you ask. It's very much an AU and longer than most 'side projects' but it also wasn't Sunrise's own.
>>23888804Was G-Reco a side project?
>>23888827Only if you consider Turn A a side project too.
>>23888800It is mainline according to the Road to 50th anniversary movie. All TV and films are considered mainline and includes Unicorn. All OVAs, direct to stream and Narrative are spin offs.In terms of current projects, it also depends on how much of a merchandising effort they made.
>>23885057>Narrative being so bad that it completely derailed Bandai's cash cow and plan to finally solve the issue of UC accessibility is the funniest shit to me.The manga has been doing a lot of heavy lifting for my opinion of Narrative, but doing it as a single movie was just plain retarded.
>>23884272For some reason I thought the telescope was a top view of A Baoa Qu
>>23889206So Narrative's issues were in the adaptation?I can see that since my impression of the film was that it could have been salvaged in the edit.
>>23889256Lol same.
>>23889661Narrative was heavily changed from the source material.It's actually kind of a mess. The Narrative novel actually just existed to allow the novel continuity to line up with the anime continuity of Unicorn, like explaining the Neo Zeong and how it was destroyed in the novel (since it was never there in the main story).Then the movie tried to pick the part about going after the Phenex, while repurposing the main plot from a side-story into a sequel to Unicorn. So, Neo-Zeong replaced by Neo-Zeong II and Full Frontal replaced by Zoltan.Zoltan also was made completely evil because Fukui thought the anime made Full Frontal too likeable.Either way, the manga version is developing all the anime original stuff even more, while in the movie a lot of it was clearly rushed placeholders.
>>23889206No name Zeta Plus pilot almost solos everyone.
>>23889661It was super rushed to coincide with the launch of Gundam Base in Odaiba
If they're getting rid of the giant Unicorn statue, they must already have a replacement in mind.
>>23890188imagine if it was the dorito
>>23889682I'm kind of dreading how they will fuck up the introduction of Charles Rochester in UC2
>>23890213That'd be twice the size of the Unicorn.They should make it so it can transform into flight mode
>>23890270It's only a six meter difference. Besides, what else could it be since I don't see them ever putting up a non-UC suit, and the Nu is already in Fukuoka. RX-78 again is also unlikely
>>23890275In height, but it's also fat fuck. Twice the overall size sounds about right. I would not be surprised if they put a kira suit up one day.
>>23890188Like what?
>>23891900KAWAMORI SUPREMACY
it's time
>>23875919this thin waist thing is getting dumbgimme a gundam with a beer belly
>>23875919The long term consequences of Katoki's generally thin designs and the emulation of his style that has resulted in this excessively anorexic mess is something we're eternally cursed with going forward, aren't we.
>>23892034Reminder Katoki said he went for that style because there was demand for it. It was always going to happen.
>>23891900Maybe involving UC2.
>>23890282Pretty sure that's already in China. If the US branch weren't cowards I would have expected a Wing Zero in Chicago by now
>>23892488The wings are a hazard.
>>23892344I hope so.
>>23892620They could fall at any moment.
>>23892488Chinks sure love Seed.
>>23892690It'd be pretty funny but I don't think Unicorn 2 is coming out before Hathaway 3 finishes so 2029 sounds like it's too early
>>23894255So what's the more likely replacement?
>>23894851Zeta or Strike are my bets.
>>23894865Why those two?
>>23894884Strike because japan likes seed and they can do a no backpack version to cheap out and zeta because it's a very popular design and wouldn't be too hard as long as they don't do a transformation.
>>23894899Makes sense, though I kinda doubt Zeta, though.
>>23894851I hope it's still UC related.
>>23894899They could have a drone custom built to resemble the Zeta's waverider mode
>>23884114Well that weird short film had Luin piloting a replica of the phenex and since G-Reco was his baby I imagine Tomino signed off on it
>>23895482Man, I remember that.
>>23895917It jobbed hard.
Any new info?
>>23896215New Gundam game.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hltguZH2h_EThe real version is chinkgreeble shit. And I still prefer it over >>23875919
>>23896775Early AGE if edgier?
>>23896878More like Eight without the thinly veiled old fucks vs young people conflict taking the center stage instead of the aliens the first chapter teased.
>>23896878You didn’t watch AGE
>>23896775Cool, another AU.
>>23896917>More like Eight without the thinly veiled old fucks vs young people conflict taking the center stage instead of the aliens the first chapter teased.First of, the aliens may come later (it's a "How We Got Here"story). Second, it isn't "", it's more like the Natural-Coordinator divide from Cosmic Era.
>>23897575It's very clearly meant to be old vs young rather than not-racism like seed.
Was it? Having read the chapters recently translated weeks back, there didn't seem to be old people (or maybe there were, but it was hard to see) amongst the Sevens feeling disenfranchised by how Eights are receiving preferential treatment.
For anyone wondering, >>23897596 was for >>23897581.
>>23896775The leaks weren't for the game, retard.
>>23897596Sevens are the parents of eights, created them, engineered them to be the way they are. And when they turned out the way they are(sterile, better than them at jobs and shit) they flipped their shit and tried to dehuman them(despite ALL of that being the seven's fault to begin with). It's quite clearly meant to be a criticism of older generations and how they treat the kids they raised, blaming them for all the issues they themselves created while also refusing to step aside professionally and let their kids live a life.
>>23897618Okay, that I didn't get when I first read those chapters. Again, I overestimated how similar Constant Calendar is to Cosmic Era. My apologies for the argument.
>>23897608yeah they are, the enemy designs itt match the trailer
>>23896775This was clearly just some generic mecha game that got last-minute rebranded so people would care
So we have three Gundam manga AUs and now a game AU? Nice.
>>23897951They don't.
>>23899342I assume you're not counting The Origin and Thunderbolt.
>>23897951You're blind.
>>23899461Yeah.
>>23875986Bandai should steal it anyway since nobody can sue them.
>>23899461If you count alt.UC there were a couple in the 90s too, like Outer Gundam/Moon Crisis or Gigantis' Counterattack. They only seemed to put effort into making most manga fit into mainline UC later on. And then eventually opened up things for actual official UC AUs.
>>23900682I remember those now. Gigantis' Counterattack was interesting.
>>23900723The Space Runaway Ideon crossover was fun.
>>23899342>So we have three Gundam manga AUsDespair Sequel, Eight and ???
>>23901050Burai
>>23901301Wait, nevermind. It already ended.I'm not that anon anyway.
>>23901305Burai ended?
>>23901653Seems like it.
>>23901671Huh, could've sworn it was still ongoing.
>>23901050>>23899342For UC mangas going on, it's only>Moon>Pulitzer>Flanagan Booneright? Moon is probably the only one likely to get adapted since it's by Fukui + fills in the gap between ZZ and CCA with more Charmuro wank
>>23901727>Moon is probably the only one likely to get adaptedI really don't want this.
>>23901728Seconding, I have nothing against it existing as a manga but it'd be a pretty egregious thing to try and seriously jam into primary continuity on-screen.
>>23901727Question. Can we count OL Haman?
>>23901734I suppose, the Kycilia Zabi isekai as well.
>>23901729Moon and more OYW spinoffs are what I dread for future Gundam projects.
>>23901797Moon technically isn't OYW tbf, I'm hoping hathaway 3 opens the door for more stuff set during Grpys/Axis/post-CCA
>>23901819I know Moon isn't, I'm just saying I don't want it alongside more OYW spinoffs. I hope Hathaway 3 opens the doors to many things, maybe even Gaia Gear.
I fucking NEED a Turn A sequel.
>>23901854Aren't the rights for that in legal limbo
>>23901861That's why I'm hoping against hope.
>>23901860Same.
>>23901861They are?
>>23901873Seconded.
>>23901854>spoilerBased.
Can someone give me a quick rundown on the leaks?
>>23902647>aliens>main girl is an alien>aliens can pretend to be human>on mars>multiple gundam style machines>two male leads>cgiHonestly if it wasn't for the drastic art style difference between it and the supposed leaked gundam I'd say it's just the game that was announced.
>>23902650Sounds promising, thanks. I like the leaked designs more than the game ones.
>>23902650>picrel but GundamAfter G-Witch and GQuuuux failed to reach the otome audience, maybe third time's the charm
>>23902690That's what some people say about Hathaway.
>>23902697I remember that.
>>23902690>>23902697
>>23903527What are the tanuki's intentions for Hathaway?
>>23903530Rape, it's always rape with her and the cockatiel.
>>23902690I hope one of the male mains has a mask.
>>23903556Leaks say there are multiple blonde men with masks.
>>23903593Like some kind of uniform or cult?
>>23903593Go on... I could do five, MAYBE seven at once.
>>23903627Haman, you don't have that many holes. Also you don't smell like curry, he isn't interested.
>>23903628Hands. You're giving two guys a handjob while watching the remaining two fuck each other. Thats seven.
>>23903593Interesting, what else does it say?
>>23903556>>23903593Tell me more about the Char Clones.
>>23902690Sometimes I look at old 80s/90s movie posters and think, "Wow, studio execs/marketers really thought that THESE people were the apex of attractive white folk, huh? Like, just their faces should sell tickets because they're so smoking hot sexy. Look at their blue eyes! Everyone is hypnotized into orgasmic convulsions by those blue eyes, we'll make billions."
>>23904342The hypnotic effect of blue eyes works better in person with a person who isn't used to them.
>>23886784>>23887410wingfags aren't eating good if they adapt that manga sequel, it's really really shit
>>23904342no homo or anything but there's just something really striking about prime hugh grant
>>23904426>manga sequelI think you mean novel sequel.
>>23904682>>23904426Frozen Teardrop?
>>23904739I think so.
>>23903527>>23903530>>23903553>tanuki and cockatiel rape duoI'd watch it.
>>23904827>>23903527Is it just me or do those two and their shows feel significantly more "anime" than Hathaway does (not pejoratively) ?
>>23904827I think the girl on the left is Machu
>>23904845That's pretty much just true. WfM and UC fanservice aside GQ are both TV anime trying to present an entertaining action series for teen and older audiences.Hathaway is, on top of adapting a novel long considered unadaptable because of its dour town, heavy themes and relative lack of mecha, basically a prestige drama. Stylistically the films try to look the part for the drama label. On top of all of that and being made for an older audience, the cast is older than typical.WfM does show some visual influence from the first Hathaway though, which I think is interesting, and both tend to lean on visual language rooted in the physically plausible and live-action cinematic language.It's interesting next to GQ, which goes completely the other way and is the most 2D-ass 2D show Gundam's had in a while. It often treats the screen less as the POV of a camera into the world and more like a flat plane to be drawn on, to put it crudely.
>>23904851Fuck, I just noticed.
>>23904739Oh God...
>>23902650Sounds like Buddy Complex and Knights of Sidonia.
>>23904938Seconded.
>>23884195This might sound retarded but isn’t Origin a direct lead up to UC and not an Alternate UC?
>>23904992It's alternate UC since there are subtle differences like Guntank Early Types being used by Zeon.
>>23904992The Origin OVA is an adaptation of one arc in the middle of the Origin manga which is an alternate version of the original series.There are a few changes to the OVA compared to the manga that try to kind of make it line up with mainline UC, but mostly in terms of design and written material (like the Guncannon becoming Guncannon Early Type and this Early Type not being considered a mobile suit) not the OVA's plot itself, unlike the Hathaway movies that acknowledge the animated continuity in a big way starting from the 2nd movie. Bandai also has published a few timelines even after the OVA where it excluded The Origin.That said, they did include it in a recent UC watch list. And designs from The Origin have actually started making some appearances in unrelated UC material, although they're still rather sporadic.Basically, right now it's not officially in continuity. I do think things might change as time passes though just due to it being the most easily accessible compilation of early OYW backstory.
>>23904682>>23904739yeah i meant Frozen Teardrop, it's terrible, and i don't do the typical 4channer hyperboles of calling mid stuff terrible, it's genuinely terrible
>>23905058I followed it around 16 years ago when translation was scarce and it got pretty weird.
>>23904992>>23905001I really don't see Bandai ever wanting to adopt The Origin's Operation V lineage as canon, which would be a requirement since they already covered it in the animated sections. Other stuff is easier to fudge since it hasn't been specified on-screen as much in main canon but directly rewriting the history of the Gundam, Guntank and Guncannon is probably too far for them.
>>23904459tbhfam no, not really. At least to me, he just looks like a normal British dude. I fear he's a Streisand situation (utterly mundane looks and talent passed off as "sex symbol", possibly to subtly show Hollywood's control over the popular image).
>>23905091Guncannon First Type and Guntank Early Type from the OVAs were created exactly to split them up from the RX Guntank and Guncannon already though unlike in the Origin manga where there's only one type of Guncannon and Guntank and they were all prior to Operation V.On the other hand, like I said, the actual story content of the story isn't changed though, unlike in Hathaway, so even though you have them changing the tech tree, you don't actually see the RX Guntank/Guncannon coming up at all in the OVA, but it doesn't stop them from existing, unlike the manga.
>>23905193The concept that any of them exist before Operation V in any form is straight-up a contradiction of all three being developed alongside each other to act as the long, medium and close-range suits. Regardless of how they specify earlier or later models, The Origin explicitly turns it into a crawl/walk/run type evolution over a longer period.The Guncannon in particular would be pretty rough, 'we painted it red and gave it hands' being the way you try and argue it's a totally new suit for the new program is something I think even AE would find a bit much.The early/late type has more to do with simplifying explaining why they can have different visual designs and in turn look more normal in the OYW era, it doesn't actually do anything to adjust that the development history is plain different in The Origin.
>>23905205Since I know it's probably going to come up I'm aware that for a while there's been the 'RTX-44' mentioned as a precursor to the Guntank which is clearly what The Origin's RTX-65 is riffing on, but given that Igloo's RTX-440 is supposed to be a direct modification of it I think it's reasonable to say that the Guntank of Operation V is more inspired by prior art than just an iteration of it.
>>23905205>The early/late type has more to do with simplifying explaining why they can have different visual designs and in turn look more normal in the OYW eraI mean, in the actual Origin manga, when a bunch of Guncannons are taken out at the start, they're said to be old mobile suits already. This whole scene clearly can't happen in the animated Origin continuity (although it's not covered by the OVA, so we don't know how they'd handle this), but my point is that the animated material as it stands doesn't contradict the tech tree of mainline UC.You can have the RTX Guncannon First Type with basically zero mobility and then the RX-77 Guncannon with Core Block System developed alongside the Gundam.
>>23905222The only reason it doesn't contradict it is because you're comfortable with a pretty big reach on this stuff. Even the most adventurous expanded material doesn't try and give the EF a mobile suit, even a shitty one, before the OYW kicks off. The early Guncannons existing at all to job a year early is a problem, and they're absolutely animated. You said it yourself, 'old mobile suits'. There should be no such thing in EFF inventory to begin with.There's also the film that's a complete alternative retelling of something that absolutely did happen in the original show and is mutually incompatible, as much as Sunrise might be ashamed of the original episode. Way less compatible as alternative events than any difference between the TV show and movie trilogy.To be clear I think this is fine for what The Origin is aiming to be, even if I don't like some of the choices involved. You're right that the the OVA tries to make itself look more like it could be compatible with primary canon, but it still isn't.
Is this the next big Gundam AU?
>>23905308I don't know.
>>23905308If we're counting GQuuuuuuX, they're getting shorter and shorter.
>>23905508Is this shopped?
>>23905508Interesting.
>>23905508What am I looking at here?
>>23905639Bootleg chinkshit on the left and the supposed leak Gundam in the background on some random Instagram post.
>>23904992It's explicitly an alternative UC like thunderbolt and GQ.
>>23905641Weird.
Just give me a new AU.
>>23905961I think Iron-Blooded Orphans was the last 50 episode AU.
>>23906015Probably the last 50 episode show period if we are being honest. I doubt very much we will ever be allowed a new one.
>>23906039That's unfortunate.
>>23906039At the very least, I hope that means that new AUs are pumped out faster. Also, despite G-Witch supposedly doing well, there's no sign of a compilation film coming out. IBO had a few, but they flew under the radar really quickly.
>>23906086There's no G-Witch movie coming.
>>23906966Good.
Why is it that everytime there's a new Gundam series faggots keep calling people who like it "shills" or "consoomers"? I want jaded teens to fuck off, if the show's good it's good, if it's bad, it's bad, it's not some sort of conspiracy.
>>23907222People are too afraid to like things unironically, so if it flops, they can say "I told you so" and if it doesn't, they can act like they actually give a shit.
>>23907222>>23907223I love Gundam, simple as is, some of it's good, some of it really sucks, but I'm still a fan.
>>23907222>faggots keep calling people who like it "shills" or "consoomers"?It's not just Gundam, "new thing bad" is as older than the internet. Try actually liking vidya on /v/.
>>23907229It's just how the internet is nowadays, entertainment is a Jewish conspiracy theory to teens.
>>23907238I've seen this all over, not just on 4chan, apparently you're either a blind consumer or a jaded faggot, there's no in-between.
>>23907254It's not exactly a new thing, but I think the rise of it has been a bit of an overcorrection to how much entertainment over the past fifteen or so years has really been doubling down on the hope of blind consumerism in response to recognisable names.Nobody wants to be the guy crying over the Rise of Skywalker trailer, and the easiest way to avoid it is to show absolutely no excitement or passion for anything and tell others off that do.
>>23907260Agreed, it's unfortunate that you can't say you like things without the risk of angry manchildren accusing you of sucking up to big corpo.>Nobody wants to be the guy crying over the Rise of Skywalker trailerMan, I remember that, has to have given birth to some of the most annoying memes ever. The "i don't care" mentality is pretty juvenile as well, I'm not saying love everything unconditionally, but not everything's gonna suck for existing.
>>23907238>teensIt's always underage fags.
>>23907260>tell others off that doIs there a point to that kind of behaviour?
>>23907286It's so sad sacks of shit can feel better about themselves.
>>23907286Slacktivism.
>>23907272Internet discourse is also post-nuance at this point. You can only adore something or despise it.There's also a certain kind of truly brain-broken person out there. You might say to them, for instance, 'I liked Witch from Mercury', but what they will hear is 'I think Witch from Mercury is better than your favourite Gundam show', and they will respond to that instead. They will either take it as a sign of your inferior taste versus their own in shows, or alternatively as a sign that you can't possibly have been exposed to those other shows.Not to keep bringing up Star Wars, but I recently said to someone that I didn't think the Mandalorian movie currently in cinemas looked very good and in response they said that I must be a fan of the Disney trilogy then. That was such a truly baffling exchange it's been in my head for days.People are often less talking to you and more talking to the particular preconceived foe that they've slotted you into.>>23907286It allows them to perform as a person who is not a shill/consoomer/etc. What good is being an independent free thinker if you can't show people and all the others can't validate you?Sometimes it's about, ironically enough, enforcing conformity just the other way. Anti-fandoms for lack of a better term are truly fascinating things.And of course none of this is to say you can't like things, you can't voice them or you can't argue about them There's just a pretty visible difference when people are doing it dogmatically.
Is the next big anime gonna be UC or AU?
>>23907314Yeah, the internet's become a cesspit of hyperbole and when you add politics into the mix, which everyone does eventually, it becomes more serious than it should be. Funny, I was told I was a shill for saying I liked Star Wars in general and that I was a mindless consumer for still liking the franchise after the buyout, I know there have been dreadful projects here and there, but people are just so weird about fandoms sometimes. I encountered a few people online that accused me of being a sheep for the crime of thinking something wasn't bad, in the end, you're right, it's about conformity, like, "I'm an independent free thinker just, like everyone online who agrees with me" they think you're on their side or part of some corporate conspiracy theory, it's nuts. Man, I can go down a whole rabbit hole when it comes to Anti-Fandoms and they've become profitable on Youtube, so it's hard to ignore.
>>23907314Also, when it comes to Gundam, yeah, I've seen that a lot, since the days of 00, really, so it's an older mentality than you'd think. I remember the shitshow when IBO ended and we had dedicated shitposters trolling fans of the series.
>>23907317How the fuck should anyone know?
>>23907324NTA, but I think we're due for another long form UC anime, we haven't had one since Victory.
>>23907330>we
>>23907330I want something post-G-Saviour.
>>23907337Seconded.
>>23907334I'm sure there's at least one other person who agrees.
>>23907330I think Hathaway is about as good as we're ever going to be eating for UC post-Victory that at all feels like original recipe UC.
