ARE WE FUCKING BACK??
Fafner in the Gundam: Muv-Luvaning of a Trailblazer
So the leaks were true and not AI?
>>23952413>ARE WE FUCKING BACK??I HAVE NO FUCKING IDEA AND NEITHER WILL YOU UNTIL IT COMES OUT
It looks pretty bad
>>23953050Too late, I'm going ALL IN on Gundam XARXAX stocks.
>>23953055Fool! You've learned nothing!
>>23952413>3d cgi>back
>>23953071I mean Cucuruz Doan's Island looked amazing. This'll probably turn out fine.I'd be more worried that it's a tie-in to the new game that basically looks like Gundam Synduality.
>>23953106>Gundam SyndualityChrist, that's it, that's the one. Thanks, anon, you put a name to the feel I was feeling.
>>23953109Still kind of sad that game ended up being a flop, I thought the anime was enjoyable enough.
>>23952413>we have exia back in our chinese home
so, this shit is like ben-10 but gundam?
>12 episodes The fuck we are
>>23953269God I fucking wish.
Gundam will never be back as long as its 12 episode single cour.
>>23952413>no yuri no care
Honestly being tied to the same shifty premise as the game is a huge knock against it.If you have a shallow enough brain to think >dude cool capeJust remember that means it's jobber. Like exia repair or piccolo.
>>23953323I like gwitch but why did it get 2 seasons when nothing else seems to be afforded that
>>23953323>>23953276Too much anime produced per year.
>>23952413>some dude in gundam cosplayno
>>23952413>helmet is an overdesigned piece of shit and wide as fuck>face features are too narrowhow they managed to make a head that looks like a stretched doan's island while fucking up how wide it looks is impressivethis thing looks like shit
>>23953353>a stretched doan's island
>Gundam Zero>Gundam RG>ARX pronounced similar to Gundam Alex in japaneseyep this won't be confusing at all>masked pilot with a red MS>MC named Raythis franchise is so creatively bankrupt jesus
>>23953456Retard.
>>23953459we don't sign out posts here
>>23953456Ever heard of the word homage?
>>23953463we don't NEED any more homages nigger, every few years sunrise makes a gundam show that's just MSG put through a blender or they play madlibs with the MSG plot changing things so they feel like rehashes when they don't have toEarly entries and side stories did just fine without having to fill checkboxes
>>23953456Nta but sameDoesnt help it's a generic design for the gundam.
>>23953468I wanted the leaks to be just made up chinese nonsense but here we are. At least that safe boring design gets a cooler asymmetrical arm later
>>23953463I don't think people these days, especially younger ones, comprehend the concept.
don't get high hopes and you will never be disappointed
>>23952413Gundam Zero?How appropriate since I have zero interest in it.
>>23953048I'll give you your flowers anon, you took a raft of shit for no reason. You were right.
>>2395332324 eps leads to mid-season meandering and clip episodes, though. Needs to be like 17-18 episodes and then fill in with SD/Build Fighters shenanigans or something.
>>23953490>24 eps leads to mid-season meanderingYou're retarded
>>23953327Only good post itt
>>23953467You're supposed to move on, not stay and demand the thing grows with you. You're not even Japanese, to begin with
>>23953557/m/ is not ready for this kind of talk
>>23952413wait the leaks were real were getting another ayy lmao gundam are you serious
>>23953566Never doubt color's leaks.
>>23953323It is possible if you keep using the same animation banks like in Seed or previous shows. But you'd hate that, wouldn't you? Calling it cheap and cutting corners
>>23953344Kinda just a consequence of the dwindling pool of mecha animators. The fact that g-witch needed so many animators to get out on time shows how difficult it is to make a 2d mecha anime. I assume because of how many they needed and possibly having the main people work on the 0079 remaster they scaled down this project for budget reasons and to see how much budget and time a 3d cgi gundam anime would be.
>>23953928gbitch was barely 2d
Good design
>>23953915I've wondered about that. Why is recycled animation bad?
>>23953467>we don't NEED any more homages nigger,I was having a conversation about comic books with one of my friends and one of the things we went on about was how sick we were of seeing iconic covers getting "homaged" in new variants. Some of these were pop culture landmarks but they've been referenced and homaged so many times it feels like it's been ages since we've seen anything new that's iconic enough to get homaged in the future. We're so busy chasing nostalgia and iconography that we've basically been in a creative void. What's come out that will be so well regarded 20 years from now. This can be comics or anime or whatever.
>>23954029Because a lot of the time people don't know how to be clever about it. A robots launch or combination sequence is one thing. Maybe a few attack animations. But then you get shit like Impulse becoming the Strike. And three variants on Providence.
>>23954029it's not always bad, but it depends how well it's executed. some reuse of animation is expected over the course of a 50 episode TV series, especially stuff like transformation scenes where most people don't mind because it's usually a very detailed scene that only happens a couple of times, they can get away with reusing it.sometimes it's a sign of a bigger problem. in the case of seed and destiny, supposedly it was due to morosawa turning in scripts late, leaving less time for animators to work on episodes before they aired, so they ended up being forced to use a lot of stock animation to save time as a shortcut. catapult launch sequences, generic attack scenes, weapons effects and storyboard sequences got recycled way more than usual
>>23953345What anime minutes produced per year?
I hope the Red Gundam pilot/Char Clone doesn't job, I had high hopes for Elan Ceres 4 in G-Witch, but he died like a bitch early on and lost his relevance till the final episode.
>>23954029It isn't.
>>23954085I concur. Problem with what animators want to do is really pull out all of the stops. Recycling animation allows for the rest of the budget to be saved for other purposes like say, paying for alternative schedule slots to make sure a story isn't restricted to the confines of 12 episodes.
>>23953050That trailer looked good thought. It looked like an actual Gundam show. We haven't had one of those in a while.
>>23953276Is it confirmed to be 12 episodes?
>>23953949Fuck. I'm really digging this design.
>>23952413Why the fuck is gundam wearing a cape? and fucking bandages? This shit is beyond retarded even for gundam.
>>23954122Shades of Shin Getter. I dig it.
>>23954098trailer looked fine there's just no need to get all worked up yet
>>23954100yes
>>23954122It's the only way they know how to make a robot look cool.
>>23954122>This shit is beyond retarded even for gundam.relax tourist this is the tip of the icebergmaybe the pilots just a retard huh? maybe he thinks it will keep the gundam clean and help the armour heal? ever consider that?
>operation to take back the earth from aliens>alien main heroineMegaton Musashi?
>>23954011Nah, it's very bland especially compared to his previous works.
>>23954236>blandall main gundams maintain a lot of features this ones different enough. bigger problem is those retarded things on its arms
>>23954259I like the arms...
>>23954341no worries anon you can build yours with them and I can without
It just occurred to me that Gundam Helix is using the Late U.C mobile suit heights since it's significantly shorter than the Zero.
>>23954353Maybe within the 90-year time gap between XARX-ZERO and Ring Orbit, things get worse becauser the Apocalypse (if they'll still be called that in the latter entry), mobile suits were built to be relatively shorter like what happened in Universal Century post-UC 0100.
>>23954390It's probably a direct reference to Late UC downsizing. I don't necessarily like it, but I get it.
>>23953345is there a version of this chart up to 2026?
>>23953456Also the tech nomenclature indicates this is an Alternate Anno Domini timeline
>>23954416No.
The most TORMENTED Gundam...
>>23954540Keep it to one thread.
I hope the Gundam Zero gets more mutations.
>>23954122Because it gets infected by aliens but Ray keeps it in check like devilman
>>23955433I hope Ray and a heavily mutated Gundam Zero are the final bosses of Rogue Orbit.
>>23952413>12 episode long advertisement for you to buy the new gamenah.
>>23955459Manifesting this.
Will there be more under the RG Project? Like a manga or a movie?
>>23955854Broadway play.
>>23952413Only if it has sexy girls with giant boobs in it
>>23955866How giant we talking?
>>23955896Sumeragi sized boobs.
>>23955899That's what you call giant?
>>23955854Western animated show.
>>23954050The last 10~ years or so are a cultural void, nothing that's been made during this past decade will stand the test of time.
>>23952413Hoping this means that in the future we get a Gundam show not only with aliens, but also going beyond the Sol System...just like Judau did when he left.
>>23954029casuals not being familiar with the making of year long weekly anime.
>XARX-ZERO this isn't fun anymore...
>>23954050Make a blog retard.
>>23952413I'm ok with the default design but this one is actual assThe cape is fine, but the bandages just look retarded and make no sense on a giant robot. And the organic arm is super lame. Biotech is fucking lame.
>>23956150>Biotech is fucking lameSay that to Evafags
>gundam thread>tourists can't stop talking about eva
>>23956166Gquuuux exists
>>23956164Evafags really only care about jerking it to the girls anyway.
>alien shit in GundamFuck no
>>23952413I bet XARX is going to be moe as fuck
The thing I think is going to bug me the most is that it won't be a complete story. It's a big advertisement for the game, so you just know it's going to end on a cliffhanger and basically say you have to play Rogue Orbit if you want the rest.
There hasn't been a single Gundam thing worth giving a shit about since G-Reco.
>>23956259Retard.
>>23956262you seem to be implying that G-Reco was worth giving a shit about.Ever tried to become a comedian?
>>23956166blame quxfags
>>23956166The nips in their common sections are comparing it to eva too, and God eater because of the music.Personally it reminds me more of Fafner with all the crystals
What are the chances the Gundam has berserk moments after the fusion?
I like that Gundam's going all experimental, after all, we're still getting traditional U.C stories and AUs like Wing, Seed and 00 are getting new projects.
>>23956468The last time we had a multi-generational anime and video game cross-media initiative was AGE, so I hope this one does better.
>>23956485I'm gonna get shit for this, but I actually had fun with AGE, but mostly because of Memory of Eden.
>>23956486The game was fun, too.
So story initiatives we have now are U.C NexT 0100 and the RG Project?
>>23953490I don't give a fuck about "mid season meandering". Give me all the shitty filler in the world. I'm a 23 year old zoomer. There hasn't been a proper 40 episode gundam series since IBO in the Heisei era when I was in high school. Everyone is sick of shows that have zero staying power.
>>23956513It just occurred to me that we haven't had a full U.C anime series since Victory.
>>23956540A full anime series in general is a rarity nowadays. I can't recall the last anime series that was longer than 26 episodes and had any kind of staying power.
I hope this is the main thread, the other two are retard rage threads.
>>23956513Yes, other than that, we have Wing, Seed and 00 projects and the live action movie that just wrapped filming.
>>23956724:D
>>23954011ZOE inspired a lot of artists to draw mecha without feet but not a single one recreated the iconic cock-pit.
>>23957856I'm looking forward to most of those.
>>23953106Kukuruz is Croatian for corn
>>23952413>Male MC>Actual good gundam designyes, were back
>>23953341>Just remember that means it's jobber.Sandrock and Crossbones wore capes and they weren't jobbers
>>23958495Finally a gundam for the lgbt crowd like this fella right here!
>>23958070Still a less strange name than Four Vagina
>>23958910we already had that, its called Gquuuxthis one is for straight men
>>23953341>Just remember that means it's jobberBro your Armageddon Getter 1? Black Getter?
>>23959036I thought that was WfM?
>>23959093>WfMKinda fucked up that after G-Witch, tourists tried to claim that Gundam was a gay franchise. At least GQuuuuuuX put them in their place by having both female leads wanting to fuck the same guy.
>>23959104>At least GQuuuuuuX put them in their place by having both female leads wanting to fuck the same guy.I still remember the meltdown over at /a/.
>>23959139>the meltdown over at /a//a/ has been chasing "epic trainwrecks" for a decade, it's all performative
>>23959155/a/ really wants shit to fail, huh? And they're infested with /u/ tourists as well.
>>23959159>/a/ really wants shit to fail, huh?I mean same shit happens here, maybe because of the overlapping user base but every time a new show is announced there's people going "OH NONONOOO LOOK IT'S CGI!!!!" "WTF THE CHARACTERS LOOK LIKE TRANNIES" or some other shit. You'd think /m/ fans would want their niche to succeed.But yeah culture war bullshit has sent /a/ into /v/ and /tv/ tier discussion.
>>23959162>culture war bullshitThat annoys me like no other. I can't even discuss the new Star Wars anime there without being called a shill or a troon. Culture warriors deserve the rope.
>>23956150I'm curious about the context of this transformation. Does the Gundam get partially infected? Or is this some hidden ability? But I agree that the default RG Zero.Gundam is way better than the edgy teenanger one.
>>23953506>>23956522You don't get filler, you get clip episodes and episodes that could have been half an episode but get padded out with redundant character reaction shots and stock footage. 24-episode Gundam seasons aren't twice the story of 12-episode seasons, they're about 1.5 times the story with shitty pacing. Which is why I say 17-18 episodes is the sweet spot. You get a couple of episodes of filler/world-building, but they're intentional and keep the story moving rather than bogging it down.
>>23956390Are you familiar with Go Shiina? Can you tell me why everyone seems to think his God Eater work sounds like Tekken 8's Duomo di Sirio? I juat don't hear it.
>>23959104Gundam is gay tho
>>23959194>17-18 episodes is the sweet spotThis is so retarded.
>>23959194What anime has exactly 17-18 episode? You're describing an unicorn here.
I hope this anime repels shipfags.
>>23959245nah
>>23959254What are the crackships
>>23959245I hope the Ayy princess deters faggot shippers.
>>23959268"faggots" shippers are a staple of the mecha community, you are gonna have to grow a thicker skin
>>23959259
>>23959245If the Gundam really is alive thanks to alien bullshit, everyone and their mothers are gonna ship it with the protag.
>>23959284I keep forgetting about the swords in the pic.
>>23959268>>23959284I only approve of the Ayy princess and the Gundam.
>>23959291What about if the Ayy princess IS the Gundam.
>>23959296Even better!
>>23959139The meltdown was over the show having a hot garbage finaleWhich it did
>>23959304Yurifags still lost, so I'd count that as a win.
>>23959306The finale was so bad I wouldnt even count it as a winEveryone lost
