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
>>23959288It says a lot that most people don't even notice this thing having five katanas with it. How does that manage to be the least striking thing about this gundam
It's going to be shit >butIt's gonna suck
>>23957873Does that even count as "full" given even the source material will never be finished?
>>23959323It's even more Exia than i thought. Those might be its only weapons since it lost the beam sabers and its upside down grip beam rifle, maybe the glowy blue alien stuff makes the swords special
>>23952413>that facelmao
>>23959164SW is shit anon.
>>23959631The anime episodes look interesting.
>>23959636Visions in general was fun, except for Volume 2.
>>23959636>>23959653Lop a shit
>>23953052Libshit cuck faggot
>>23952413I like the bandages, and it seems these mobile suits are small and fast as fuck. Good shit, I like ayy lmaos too.
>>23959678I prefer Kara.
>>23959924Anything is better than kemmonos
>>23959366Looks menacing.
>>23952413>heterochromia>alien arm>cloak>bandages>several katanasIt's so edgy, I love it.
>>23959284Hey if it worked for Armored Core 6...
>>23958910you mean qux?
>>23960175Same.
>>23952413Now I remember what the double chin reminded me of.
>>23961274I love the Gundam Legilis.
>>23953327>>23953555Die. Seriously.
>>23952413why this mech has meat instead of mechi really dont like it bros...
>>23952413i havent truly enjoyed a gundam show since 00
So G-Witch is just going to be the last TV Gundam with 2D mechas?
>>23961813Gbitch was 3d as well.
>>23961815Vast majority was 2D however.
>>23961824More like 50/50, most 2D shots were traced 3D.
>>23961868It was the same for Unicorn wasn't it?
>>23953276I'm gonna kill myself.
>>23953456You just noticed this now? The last series was 80% OYW nostalgiabait.
>>23961868More 80/20 2D/3D.
>>23953276Into the trash it goes I guess.
>>23961953Nah half the cuts were 3D or traced models.
>>23961958No, it was way more 2D. I get you hate the show but it was still a 2D mecha show.
>>23961979>it was still a 2D mecha showIt really wasn't, pay attention next time you watch a scene from it.
>>23962020Oh should've known you were one of those weirdoes.
I wonder if the scramble to finish WfM in time killed the idea for 2D mechas for TV AUs for the foreseeable futurelike they had to pull animators that were supposed to be working on HF to finish that thing
>>23962030One of the "weirdoes" that pay attention to the show they are watching? I guess so.>>23962049I doubt it, the first fucking shot of Aerial is 3DCG.
>>23962049Both GQX and this are collaborations with external studios, not actually main projects of Sunrise's internal studios.Originally, Sunrise was split between Sunrise and BNP to leave Sunrise with basically just Gundam and Love Live, everything else moved to BNP, but for some reason recently Sunrise has been doing other shows too like MAO and Samurai Troopers, which leaves even less internal staff for Gundam.
>>23962069Where does that leave 8-Bit since Bandai Namco bought them too?
>>23962049They've been slowly phasing out real animation since unicorn. We have just finally hit the point where they dropped it completely. Expect to never see it again.
Will the RG Project have more stuff after?
>>23964644No.
>>23952413now that it's real someone repost all the leaked concept art because I just blew it off last time desu
>>23964644Probably a manga, hopefully a movie.
Does this mean the UC NexT 0100 project is dead? I thought they said they would expand on stuff Post-Victory?
>>23965636They will eventually, after Hathaway's Flash ends, I think. I want the to repurpose Gaia Gear's concept and ideas.
>>23965636I hope we get something in the U.C 0200's or 300's since G-Saviour feels like a wet fart to end the timeline on.
>>23965716But my Reconguista in G and Turn A...
>>23965720I've always wanted a Turn A sequel since G-Reco's status as one is contested at best.
>>23965720I wouldn't mind a return to the Correct and Regild centuries in future projects.
>>23965722>>23965730I just want Gundam to move past Turn A.
>>23965716G-Saviour isn't canon to UC, according to the rules of "if you told tomino that G-Saviour is canon he'd say what the fuck is G-Saviour?"
>>23965760God, I wish.
>>23965742Same, it feels limiting that it all ends somewhere.
>>23965867Can someone better-versed in obscure Gundam lore explain this to me. Does anything Seed and after still count as part of the Dark History? I know Wing counts for sure because Corin Nander pilots the Gundam Aesculapius in the Turn A manga.
>>23965868Technically yes
>>23965871I see, that's why I want a Turn A sequel that spans as much time as U.C.
>>23965874Same, I think it's time Gundam expanded past Turn A.
>>23965871Interesting, what about alternate U.Cs like The Origin, Thunderbolt and GQuuuuuuX?
>>23965877Those are kind of messy but probably, makes about as much sense as all the others fitting in somehow at least.
>>23965878I would've thought it was all just fanservice if not for Corin getting a Gundam from the Wing manga.
>>23965878Anno Domini taking place after the Cosmic Era or thousands of years after the Universal Century, which replaced the Anno Domini calendar in-universe is confusing to me.
>>23965871So ELS Setsuna and Rita in the Phenex are somewhere out there in the universe when Turn A happens?
>>23965896Yeah, they're busy making out in the background
>>23965897I guess Feldt and Jona got cucked.
>>23965898>Mr I am a Gundam meets woman who is literally a GundamNobody else could ever compete
>>23965899>Ericht cries in the cuck corner.
>>23965900She's probably their adopted child
>>23965902>Gundam x Gundam
>>23965903More like Gundam x Family.
>>23965900Permet has to be the most situational Gundam thing ever, like it's OP in its own universe, but practically useless anywhere else unlike let's say, the Psycho-Frame or GN Particles.
>>23965944That's why the Calibarn especially would be mogged by other AU Gundams.
>>23966052Most of them, yeah.
>>23965906I'd watch that.
>>23965944Yeah, it's pretty weak.
>>23952431:Singularity Point.
I'm excited for this.
>>23953048>So the leaks were true and not AI?The leaks are actually both at the same time.
>>23967126Im happy your happy. No homo
>>23967374Thanks bro, no homo.
how the hell are you supposed to pronounce this? "zarks?" "eksarks?"
>>23968270x-arex apparently.
>>23965730These, or AW.
>>23968270Alex.
>>23969807Same, the manga was good, but I wish we got more.
>>23952413dumb question, but are the aliens in this and rogue orbit related to the interstellar humans mentioned in turn A?
>>23952413Its dead ass just lore for an upcoming vidya lmao
I hope the RG Project has more anime after.
>>23972968Maybe a manga or a movie.
>>23971839At a single season it's basically impossible to be anything more yeah. How the fuck are you supposed to do more than barely establish setting in 12 episodes?
>>23973998>How the fuck are you supposed to do more than barely establish setting in 12 episodesAre zoomers really this retarded?
>>23974000It's a brand new AU, you aren't starting with a setting already built for you like GQ did. Also, liking 12 episodes is a zoomer thing to begin with since they are completely devoid of attention span. Real shows have 50~ episodes.
>>23974018I guess 0079 isn't a real show, damn.
>>23974024Retarded or illiterate? Do you not understand what tildes mean?
>>23959139Saw someone write a long blog about how Machu and Nyaan should've been lesbos, G-Witch really introduced mentally ill LGBTBBQ schizos.
>>23974179You probably fell victim of pasta.
>>23974185It wasn't on 4chan, so it was probably an actual schizo rather than a troll. My sister showed it to me.
>>23974219Why do faggots always try to claim fictional characters and why do westoids enable them?
>>23974307Narcissism.
>>23974219Sounds like a Reddit or Tumblr thing.
>>23961274Odysseus had a double red/white chin long before the Legilis
>>23961274>>23975490Back in my day we called it Physalis face.
>>23975507HF predates 0083 though
This new Gundam looks fun.
>>23976806Seconded.
>>23973998>>23974018There are 2-hour films that have been widely acclaimed and loved for decades, but retards keep bitching about muh animes needing 50 episodes because they love retarded filler bullshit in their dumb toy commercials for 40-year-old children.
I want more info on the Char clone and the red Gundam.
Slow thread.
>>23980263People would rather post in shitty generals.
>>23980263>>23980560There's nothing to talk about until new info is revealed or the show comes out dumb negrobumper.
>>23975490wow that bitch is wide
>>23953276I hope we spend half of it on a random character from the original series and the ending is just the protagonists yelling at each other.
Interview with the director.
I hate how zoomoids are talking about Kamiyama like he is a no name director.
Remember that time Bandai sent some YouTube tranny a bunch of free kits for publicity because he watched G-Witch?
When in 2027 is this likely to air?
>>23981964>the aliens thing was Rogue Orbit's devs ideathis game will fucking suck balla won't it? I can trust Kamiyama to do something half decent with the concept, but definitely not these idiots.
>>23952413We are back.
>>23982398Spring
>>23953323ThisBring back 49 episode long series
>>23992095You don't even watch a 12 episode seasonal.
>>23955901Fanart tends to make em that way
>>23999547Because 12 episode seasonals fucking suck. Any show shorter than two seasons long isn't worth watching.
