https://x.com/gundam_info/status/2090363722959044934Gundam X FLASH, a sequel to the Gundam X series, starring Garrod and Tiffa after the X Next Prologue manga will start rerialization in October's Gundam ACE. The artist is Koichi Tokita, the same as Next Prologue, also SEED Astray and Wing G-Unit.
>>23989151You know, I've been thinking, Carris having canned Yuko Mizutani voice lines was extremely constricting for Carris despite already owning a Gundam of his own. This is one of those special cases where recasting is absolutely necessary at this point if we see X Flash/Next Prologue content in the future.
>>23989151>Koichi TokitaWhy is he the go-to guy for spin-off mangas anyway? Pretty sure he did 00F as well.
>>23989151>WingCHADs getting a new animated story>Xcucks get a manga (that will get cancelled too like the show)Xfags LOVE taking Ls.
>>23989151Let's just hope that if BEE-CRAFT is doing the mecha, since Tokita tends to partner up with them for manga projects, that they don't go batshit crazy and inject too much Astray DNA into any new mecha designs like they did for the G-UNIT Operation Galiarest manga reboot with the new main Gundams, the Castor and Pollux, as well as their combined forms.
Anyone got the prologue manga translated? Seems to have been scrubbed from the usual spaces
>>23989155He's cheap and fast
>>23989155>>23989177He's always working on something for Gundam Ace too, so just jumps from one series to another constantly.Although I guess this X announcement means he won't be the one doing a side-story manga for the upcoming new AU, if it gets any.
Another black Gundam X. I guess we'll get an actual recurring Newtype rival for Garrod?
Why did they wait until Kawasaki was dead to do anything?
>>23989269They were waiting for the 30th anniversary of the show... Kawasaki did still work on Next Prologue at least.
>>23989171Try typing in "After War Gundam X Re:Master Edition" in Mangago. The prologue manga you speak of is there.
>>23989151Why does it look like a magical girl animeThis is the wrong kind of moon power
Huge surprise Hasegawa isn't doing this, because for the past 20 years AT LEAST he's been doing crummy sequels to everything mecha. All his characters and units look like they have been made out of mochi.
>>23989151Cool
>>23989372I wish my unc drew gundam manga for a living
reminder that the posted drawings for Nouevelle and 3rd X have big ol' black censor spaces to hide new gimmicks that weren't revealed in Next Prologue.Now we'll find out what's up with that.
We are so fucking back.
I heard Gundam X was actually a Brave show with Gundam branding. Is that true?
>>23989151Not something I expected to get announced but not unwelcome.
>>23989822Same director that did several Braves series, Garrod's outfit also would fit right alongside several of the leads of Brave shows, and his personality is generally cheerful.The X's Satellite Cannon is also pretty much the Perfect Cannon from Great Might Gaine (shoulder cannon with big beam).But the similarities mostly stop there.
>>23989151Sex with Garrod.
>>23989844>>23989822
>>23989157Wing got a manga before getting an animation project confirmed. It took nearly a year. I doubt X is going to get an animation project, I don't even recall it getting an anniversary video like Wing and eventually G.
>>23989845Tiffa, please
>>23989151OH MY GOD! This is huge! Can't for a translation!>>23989186Oh, we lots of Xs now. Hope they make a new Double X successor at least.>>23989372His Crossbone manga were really great until Dust.
>>23990561>worst performingF91 flopped in Japan and its F92 continuation got canceled.
>>23990630F91 wasn't a series.
>>23990630literacy is a pretty useful skill, I hope you try learning it some time!
>>23990561Bamco does this to me every time they don't do and MG G Self, and instead do another billionth zeek.
>>23989151Hopefully we get a full English translation before they nuke it on Mangadex>mfw I keep jumping back and forth between manga sites for latest Amuro Kikka Manga
>>23990561this isn't Bandai bro. Bandai loves licensing money because there's no cost to them. so it's someone from kadokawa internally pitching to continue the x manga and it getting approved, and then going to Bandai to get license.contrast this with G Gundam, all we got is a short novel series because no one gives a shit about G.
>>23992384As far as G Gundam goes, I think the issue is that it did just get a sequel novel by Yasuhiro Imagawa himself. I guess you could talk about making a manga version of that, but it doesn't seem like this story was well liked.
They will make replica of the G Controller for sale soon!>>23993294I CAME>>23993322X and DX my beloved!
so we are getting a new manga, new merchs, and new units in GvG
>>23993379Also DX in Battle Operation 2
>>23993409>it uses the unused weapons like the hammer and spear as wellBased!gonna reinstall the game and buy that
>>23993409>>23993464https://x.com/gundambattleope/status/2091851621110333732
>>23993294>>23993409>>23993497Is it me or it's fatter than usual?
>>23993534It was kind of bulky in show from what I remember.
First chapter already out and translated on mangadexhttps://mangadex.org/chapter/8de64877-e9e6-4c0b-8c09-e4a683ce64c4
>>23995560>first chapter>Tiffa immediately became a damsel in distress and gets kidnapped againDo we have to go through this song and dance again?
>>23995578It's funny, don't sweat it so much
>>23995578It's just a cliffhanger now if she gets dragged away for an entire arc, that's be annoying.
>>23995578>>23995591What's she going to do, use her newtype powers that don't exist? Plus, Tifa can't defend herself in the slightest.
Storyti/m/ing the first chapter.
>>23993464Pathetic.
>>23995765Thanks anon!
First chapter done. What are your impressions on the beginning of Gundam X Flash?
>>23995837I'll try storytiming further X Flash chapters as soon as possible whenever they get translated. That's the most I can promise on.
>>23995853Waht a tweest
Hey why does it have a satellite cannon if it can't be used anymore?
>>23995951In Under the Moonlight there were some dudes who tried to restore moon base. Maybe it's somehow related.
>>23995957naw, they restored the power satellites
>>23995795>>23995796>>23995808Garrod should've finished the Frost Bros off when he had the chance.
>>23995856Always been a fan of gundams coming out of boxes/carriers
This is the best time to be a Gundam X fanthe series finally got the love it deserved
>>23995862>Red Gundam Xso we are getting a new Char clone
>>23995862The reason I can't get behind X is because you can tell whenever someone is a bad guy. They all have the same lizard face. 1 dimensional cast right down to their appearance.
>>23989177That and he's a guy who can actually draw both the mecha and the characters on-model better than most. Otherwise he's really fucking shit at drawing manga as an art form. Sure, there are a lot of motion lines and special effects, but its like he took a screenshot of the actual anime, ran them through a black and white filter, and slapped speech bubbles onto them. Like look at this shit here >>23995850 where there's a whole bunch of tracer fire and explosions but no actual sense of movement.There's a reason why Tokita has zero celebrity status despite his long career: his art is utterly lifeless as sequential art and devoid of personality, and only Gundam nerds would ever willingly read his shit.
None of these characters are likable or enough to get invested in
>>23996164>where there's a whole bunch of tracer fire and explosions but no actual sense of movement.I feel like that's a problem with most Gundam manga artists. There are some exceptions, like Hasegawa and Yasuhiko, but it feels like they're the exception rather than the other way around. Most artists seem to be picked for their ability to draw detailed mobile suits over ability to depict action.
>>23995839>Celes>TiffaWere the writers of X always this blatant about being Final Fantasy fans?
>>23996666X aired in 1996, before the release of FF7 in 1997so FF7 writers probably were influenced by X's Tiffa
>>23996134With a horned daughtap mask
>>23996134I mean, wouldn't it just be that girl piloting it? I'd be surprised if there's another newtype around. That's probably why she's even taking Tiffa too, to activate the Satellite System.
>>23996729And by "around", I mean right there where they're standing, in the middle of nowhere.
>New series>Tiffa immediately gets kidnappedSome things never change.
>>23989151Is this set before or after the last mini-sequel where Tiffa's pregnant?
>>23997275>before or after the last mini-sequel where Tiffa's pregnant?After
>>23997275Tiffa was never pregnant there. But, yeah this is after that.
>>23997334>Tiffa was never pregnant thereit was hinted by Garrod though
Regular X was always the coolest of the lot. Both Divider and DX were downgrades.
>>24000643It's fine to have unpopular opinions, anon
>>24000643I do think the regular X has a "sleek futuristic" aesthetic that's kind of lost in the upgrades. It even uses some kind of floating technology that's bizarrely completely dumped for standard thrusters by the upgrades. I still prefer the DX though.
>>24000751Because X was built before the planet became a wasteland, while Divider was built using various parts, while DX was built with whatever was accessible. Heck, the Flash System is installed directly from Jamil's GX
>>23990561Stop posting woe-jacks.
>>23989151>>23995775>>23995779It's not as bad and ugly as Hiraiface, but Tokita's protagonists always look like Lowe.
>>23997614Tiffa and Garrod are responsible adults.hey plan to save money BEFORE making a kid.
>>23989372He’d just kill off your favorites
New X OSThttps://x.com/SUNRISEMusic_JP/status/2094697155118133388
>>23995862Thanks, what do you use to batch stitch the pages together, if you don't mind me asking?
more X goodiesthey are really pushing the series this time
>>24005402what is the best website to buy stuff from Japan on English?
>>24003181Unexpected but not unwelcome
>>23992266Imagine doing this when you can just buy the volumes
>>24005599For what purpose? I can't read Japanese
>>24004017I use Paint to stitch the pages which is what I also did for the other storytime posting on this board like Brave, Digimon and Getter, etc.
>>24000975Lowe is cool at least.
Man, Banrise are going all out in marketing X
>>24010386Could be they are preparing for a sequel but they want to make an audience beforehand
>>24010392lollmao even
>>24011330Nice
