I wonder why they didn't modernise the old UC designs.

FINALLY, this junk will be given justice.

>>90 m'quve is already perfect, you can't improve him

>>90 "Modernize" as in what? Because they are absolutely modern.

>>95 I beg to differ, but okay.

>>98 As in doing the same they did with Challia.

>>100 Well we don't know yet but they probably won't play much of a role in 0085, besides doing the 0079 bit was mostly Anno just geeking out and going through design documents and audio libraries trying to mimic the OG blended with modern techniques in the best manner. They didn't have to do it but they went the extra mile in every department, only thing missing is the original seiyuu but I assume they had their reasons for that.

I'm still not at all sold about throwing an Axis Shock equivalent like that without any build up or knowing much about this timeline's Char development. Hope they will expand on it as the show goes on otherwise it's just a bland throwback

>>46 >Visuals 8/10 >Music 4/10 >Narrative 7/10

>>109 Yeah, the OP/ED music is the weakest element. >>107 >inb4 the rest of the show is just battle tournaments I'd rage so hard. I hope for politics to actually play a part in the story. You can't have the Zabis in power and just handwave it and do nothing with the setting.

Is the show really gonna shift to a combat arena focus right after giving us the whole OYW AU schpiel? Also what the hell happened to Amuro?

I want to see my boy Garma. >>114 I assume he's still around somewhere considering Haros are a thing. Maybe Fraw Bow won in this continuity.

>>114 >Also what the hell happened to Amuro? He never became a soldier, since he didn't pilot the Gundam. Probably living a normal life somewhere. > combat arena focus Hopefully not for long.

Wait hang on since Zeon won does that mean Gato, Cima and Delaz are still around?

>>126 I'd assume in wildly different roles given things didn't go to total shit for Zeon. Cima probably retired from Zeon given how much she hates them.

>>128 >cima is a pregnant wife to a famous doctor >gato never met nina >delaz never went bald

>>130 Now the real question is if Burning is still alive. Because I really hope he is

It's safe to assume that Bright died, right?

>>126 Aina might never hook up with Shirou. Kou never meets Nina. Bernie goes back home. Mineva doesn't get groomed by Haman. What a timeline to be alive.

>>132 BRIGHT LIVES

>>132 There's a non zero chance he's alive.

>>120 drippy

>>126 Delaz retired, but the stock market crash of 0086 ate his 401k, so he's stuck cooking Pervitin on Grenada.

>>181 goddamn those are some sexy zaku

>>92 Dozle died before the Big Zam was mass produced. It's not fair, anons. It's just not fucking fair... >>173 That run is so god damn satisfying.

episode 2 made me like the designs less, I initially enjoyed the mixture of a more raw prototype look mixed with the more lithe and humanoid Eva look, but I just cant stop thinking to myself, why not add armour or cladding over those bits, I honestly think its less realistic than the designs we see in other shows

I just realized; the GM just doesn't fucking exist on this timeline, does it? That was based on the Gundam, and the Feds lost it, so that's that. So does Federation MS development proceed based on the Guncannon? I didn't catch it, but were there downgraded, mass produced guncannon-type suits in that montage, or was it just more of the one from Side 7?

>>348 >the GM just doesn't fucking exist on this timeline

Ever wanted to fuck a Haro? Now you can.

>>348 Weren't they working on the GM concurrently with the Operation V suits?

>>355 I'll be sad if I'm wrong. That'd be neat. >>371 I don't think so? Maybe very, very early preproduction.

The RX-78-01 was pure sex, do we know if it's getting a kit?

>>90 I like them. It's cool to see the old designs in HD

>>100 So, ruin him?

>>181 >say my name >Skinhead Octopus Chickenshit >You're got damn right

>>420 You can't ruin somebody who was already trash that cost Zeon the war.

>>46 >visuals 9/10 I love the shading and vibrant colors >music 10/10 peak song >narrative 5/10 I'm aware of the other gundam references but I wish we had more spoiler hints in the opening

Hippie Shinji, x Duck/Machu x blue haired girl?

>>358 What is this? A pouch?

I knew Ikeda had to go at some point but this new guy just suck at voicing Char.

I thought this series would filter more plebs honestly.

>>46 >yoshinezu fucking again why does this parasite have to invade every mildely interesting show with his mid songs

>>486 He wasn't that bad. At least he's less-known, so you don't get the whiplash of 'Gintoki/Setsuna/Lelouch/etc. voicing Char'.

>>513 I don't think he sounds bad but he's missing that subtle "I'm better than you" tone Char had.

>>417 OG Gundam was traditionally animated. It can be scanned in any resolution. >>348 Yes. Mass production Guncannon descendant was shown in the movie version. No idea if it was cut entirely or if it will be saved for later flashback. I recall the new character from episode 4 is supposed to pilot one as well. >>126 Really, I think the OYW side stories are the most interesting topics for divergence. >is Marion in a coma still? >was she ever? >everything Operation Rubicon <since it's Side 6, the WitP kids would be fun cameos (I think Dorothy is the right age to be in Machu's class) >the entire SEA campaign from 08th >did Midnight Fenrir and Noisy Fairy get Zeon's Gundam derivatives (whatever it's called)? >how did North America go for Zeon? >Astaroth

I really wanted to ask about this, but 4chan got killed... https://desuarchive.org/a/thread/278051132/#278097090 >Tomino does it in CCA. You are in the wrong franchise if you side with the EFF. Tomino was fine with Zeon cosplayers but had a melty over a Titans cosplayer. PLEASE link his melty!

>>513 He is the voice of Takemeshi from Tokyo Revengers so the whiplash is just doubled if anything lmao.

>>526 >Tokyo Revengers I don't watch that.

>>513 She is chicken but red-haired.

I honestly don't mind the new Char, he doesn't need to sound like Ikeda and he seemed pretty convincing as a Char.

Team Gundam Rocket

>>539 CHICKEN SEX

I watched ep 2 a little bit ago today. It really skips past the nitty gritty of how the war actually goes after Char steals the gundam. I think it's pretty interesting how the guncannon shoots beams instead of the solid rounds it did in the original. I hope we get a look at the larger world and it isn't just squandered potential on goofy mecha tournament nonsense. I could see a Zeon civil war breaking out over Kycilia and Gihren having a power struggle, especially if Degwin is still alive, but dying from old age.

>>27 (OP) The only thing good about this show is that it shows that zeon are the good guys. The win the war, the federation offers a truce and they simply accept and thats that. There are still independent sides so that shows that zeon and the zabi's weren't interesting in running an empire or anything. They really did just want independence. Combine that with the war crime the federation tried to commit and you have yourself a spicy zeon sandwich.

>>619 I doubt it will focus on that but maybe if people seem interested enough they'll have a gihrens greed anime

>>644 Gundam Box Guy really did go beyond the time

I really dig chalias hairstyle, I think il try it, what picture should i even show my barber? i aint showing him this

Ok the episode being absolute, complete nostalgiabait aside, I enjoyed it. But you know, that might be more because it's just a what-if of something already good than it is its own thing.

>>619 I think the movie was way more detailed. >I think it's pretty interesting how the guncannon shoots beams instead of the solid rounds it did in the original. I'm all for it. It always felt weird to me that they weren't beam guns to begin with. Guntank's already got the conventional weapons angle covered, and if you're experimenting with MS-sized beam weaponry, wouldn't you try to mount it directly on a suit and it's reactor first before working on a hand-held rifle?

>>651 Didn't you post the same stuff like a month ago? Go to that barber already you caveman. >what picture should i even show my barber? Just show him a picture of Challia's seiyuu. >>669 Imagine doing all these mental gymnastics for something you liked.

>>593 Read the thread. >>120 >>648 >gihrens greed anime The don't adapt Gundam games like ever. >>651 >i aint showing him this Feed this pic to AI if you are so ashamed.

>>682 no one replied to me last time

>>27 (OP) I cannot stop thinking about Machu's boobs and irritated face..

is this show just not really popular? or do i have to wait til episode 4 for this place to pick up(referring to the actual 4chan thread) since this has all been in the movie so far. Last main gundam show i watched was IBO and that series was getting like 2-3 generals with maxed out 600+ reply posts on the same day the episode came out

>>699 If you search through Desuarchive, G-Quacks did get plenty of long threads.

>>699 Yeah most threads happened during the movie release as the leaks were seeping through and when it released internationally, right now /m/ seems to be in a bit of an awkward spot where most of the regulars are either scattered around or doing something else with their lives, and of the ones that did make it here (or some other altchan) only a share of them care about the new show, whereas the rest either dislike one or two aspects of it or outright hate the entire thing.

The goofy running at the end of the OP is honestly growing on me.

>Is Mobile Suit Gundam GQuuuuuuX Good For Newcomers? >74k views on youtube

>>713 It doesn't make sense to me why someone would start the series here unless they just want to be part of the new, hot thing. The MSG movies aren't even that long if someone wants to the bare minimum.

>>717 I was actually talking about that with my friend today who's never watched a full Gundam series and he mentioned he might watch GquuuuuuX through to the end because it's only 12 episodes. I don't get it either.

>>717 >>719 I don't really think there's an issue with that, as an "insider" to the franchise you might think it'd be best to watch MSG first (you'd be correct) but is it really necessary? You can always watch it afterwards if you like GQuX, it already happened in Japan when the movie came out and MSG was trending as Japanese zoomers flocked to the original. As it stands I think it's a much better introduction to the franchise than gbitch, more emphasis on sci-fi, more emphasis on robots, more space nazis, etc.

>>721 You could say GquuuuuuX is a trojan horse to get people into the original Gundam. Honestly though that's fine

>>699 The truth nobody wants to hear is that UC Gundam has no mainstream appeal among the younger generations (who are the rulers over pop culture) because it carries decades of baggage. Only oldfags who grew up with that stuff and some strange outlier nerds care about UC, which is enough of an audience to justify churning out UC spinoffs for all eternity but not enough to make those spinoffs mainstream hits. There are exactly two reasons people outside the core UC audience are giving G Quacks the time of day: First because Anno's name is attached to it and like it or not, Eva stood the test of time and remains a holy grail for otakudom. Secondly because the elevator pitch for this series sounds deliciously edgy ("Imagine an alternate timeline where the space nazis won!") You don't even need to have watched anything featuring those nazis previously to get sold on the idea purely because of the aesthetics. >>719 See the paragraph above.

>>348 >So does Federation MS development proceed based on the Guncannon? I didn't catch it, but were there downgraded, mass produced guncannon-type suits in that montage, or was it just more of the one from Side 7? Yep. Without data from the test Gundams the Federation was forced to use what limited data Tem Ray had on it and the combat data from the Guncannons instead for their mass production unit, the Guncannon Light-Type (Light Guncannon). They reuse the head and torso of the Guncannon, but use the limbs of the Gundam, and one of the shoulder cannons is replaced with a beam saber. It's a loadout very reminiscent of The Origin Gundam, which is probably not a coincidence here with how many references GQuuuuuuX has.

>>721 You make a decent point but the series gains far more interesting wrinkles if you know what's going on and who everyone is. It will probably be okay as a standalone series since so far the crucial world building is being set up but a new viewer wouldn't get the same feeling. Zeon winning the OYW is a what-if many of us have thought about. I'm mostly interested in how the world looks with the Zabis in power and how their civil conflict will spill over into the series. Many new people wouldn't care about that and only care about Machu and the gang. I can agree with gwitch not being a great starting off point since it is nothing like any other series. I thought the concept of oligarchies having a monopoly on weapons manufacturing was interesting and could have gone places but that ended up being just a backdrop on a shoujo character drama I didn't give a shit about. [spoiler]Some of the mech designs were good though[/spoilers].

>>723 >Only oldfags who grew up with that stuff and some strange outlier nerds care about UC You severely underestimate the reach Gundam has. Nobody in the west grew up watching 0079, and calling GQuuuuuuX nostalgia bait is extremely retarded if you are not Japanese. >>726 >Many new people wouldn't care about that and only care about Machu and the gang. I want to give newcomers the benefit of the doubt, we longtime fans know who the Zabi are but it's not that hard to infer that they are demagogues with some family feud mixed in.

>>727 Gundam has reach, but not UC Gundam specifically. Hence AU series like IBO and G Bitch had fast moving threads and lots of shitposting to their name, since any newfags could jump right in without having to worry about lacking any important context or knowledge. The AU creates a level playing field. UC spinoffs don't have that luxury. I didn't call G Quacks nostalgia bait, (Although it is that too) I'm just pointing out that its reach is inherently limited by aiming at a specific audience of people who are already familiar with the UC. So it should come as no surprise to the anon I quoted why this show would seem less popular than IBO etc. Lots of potential viewers are going to feel that it would be too much effort to "catch up" with the UC and decide to skip instead.

>>719 Same reason people watch the 0079 movies instead of the show, people don't want heavy investments these days. Western TV seasons have shrunk massively in episode count too.

>>733 western tv is atleast 50 minutes in length, not the 24 minutes bullshit you get in the east

>>734 >western tv is atleast 50 minutes in length Not cartoons.

>>731 IBO was 10 years ago man.

>>524 Also what happened to Doan

>>734 Then why not watch it instead of spamming an eastern thread?

>>727 >if you are not Japanese. I think it's more like if you're not east/se asian. I grew up in Thailand and went to uni in Japan and Gundam was almost equally as ubiquitous.

>>753 Fair point but I wasn't trying to be exhaustive, Italy also had MSG in the 80s.

>>753 >>764 You don't need to be Asian or Italian or whatever to be nostalgic for MSG. For one thing the original series was broadcast on Toonami twenty years ago, so if you caught that at the age of ten, you'd still be a middle aged man by now. For another thing the internet and file sharing are decades old too. If you first got into watching anime twenty years ago and had access to the net, there would be a higher chance than nowadays that you might end up watching the original MSG just because there wasn't such a huge selection to pick and choose from like today and MSG wasn't quite as antiquated yet either.

>>731 IBO died a week after the watchthreads stopped. Gwitch did about the same. Don't get me wrong - it was funny shitposting about them on both /m/ and /a/, but they had no staying power New AU stuff doesn't hold the same status as Wing, Seed, or 00 anymore - the generations changed. UC still has a core oldfag audience and still generates discussion, so it gives newfags a topic to socialise.

>>767 >umm actually americans all love 0079 it's our childhood anime

>>772 Only xillennial americans, zoomzooms obviously dgaf

>>771 >IBO died a week after the watchthreads stopped. Gwitch did about the same. GWitch fandom is alive and well and will almost certain outlive Gcucks. Why? Cause GWitch is the first truly modern Gundam embracing modern values, so it gave young folks the kind of representation they desire.

Artbook confirms Gquuuuuuux has yuri. >>839 That reminds me: Have we heard anything about Youth Frontier since it was announced?

>>843 How old is she? Her boobs should be bigger.

>>847 >her boobs should be bigger Her surname is Yuzuriha. She's nip blooded.

>>864 She should grow upto become a big tiddied japanese girl.

>>866 No she will grow up to become like a mother to me.

>>843 >MioSule singlehandedly convinced Bandai execs of Yuri supremacy Witch chads literally can't stop winning

>>886 That reminds me. I wonder what duck gundam's Lalah is up to. Maybe she'll show up and be important to this universe, too.

>>889 >korean Who knew that koreans are behind the lgbt agenda?

im kinda confused as to why they do this nostalgia bait show now and where they wanna go with this story

>>909 >why Because Anno want to make his Gundam fanfiction a reality just like all the other Shin-{insert showa era franchise here} movies he made.

>>839 Not sure if bait. >>927 I love the fact that Anno is a Zeonfag.

>>928 Everyone's a Zeonfag. They got the better aesthetics, both in terms of MS designs and uniforms, they got the more colorful and memorable cast, they're the David challenging the EF's Goliath, they got the better ideals and ambitions where the EF always just wants to protect a self-serving status quo, the list goes on and on. There's not a single argument for being a Fedfag. I think Fedfags don't actually exist, just some Larpers who think it would be too boring if everyone was on the same page.

>>946 Federation supporters are usually moralfags that read too much into Gundam, they are a necessary evil to keep the Gundam scene somewhat balanced.

>>946 >Everyone's a Zeonfag Not even on this board >>>/m/751 (Cross-thread) >I think Fedfags don't actually exist I like where this is going. >uniforms Yep, and so much freedom in modifying them. Feddies could never. >>647 >zabi's weren't interesting in running an empire or anything Kycilia isn't. As for Gihren...

>>92 You need to read Thunderbolt for some hot Zam-on-Zam action I fucking love that the mass produced Zam's cockpits look like the crooked smile of a mass produced Eva

Man, I want to see the movie. When do you think that's going to come out in some ripplable form?

>>1002 I don't think it's coming out anon, ever.

>>1009 Yeah, right.

>>991 Thanks! I guess it's futile to wait for the continuation of the ONA. >>1002 For most Japanese films it's ~1 year from the screening date to the disc release. Doubt it will hit any streaming service. >>985 Where are the Eva and FLCL references though? >>1009 Why? Gundam compilation films always get disc releases, so I don't see why this one wouldn't.

>>1015 It's not a compilation film.

>>946 I'm a Titansfag.

isn't alt-uc just a better idea overall rather than making a knock-off UC for your AU or trying to come up with retarded retcons to justify your side story

>>946 Victory Gundam made me pro federation. Spacenoids will never mentally progress past killing innocent civilians

>>1313 >>1353 >>>/out/

>>1353 You're confused, the spacenoids you saw in Victory were degenerates from Side 2 funded by the (((Jovian))) menace.

Forgive me for the autism but I realized that Nyaan's glasses make her look like Char. What is the meaning of this? We're waiting for the episode where Nyaan goes full Char?

>>946 The first series really fucked up by leaving the feds woefully underdeveloped. There's an underlying assumption that audiences are just going to side with the feds by default and then the writing does nothing to actually earn the feds that sympathy. It's like, the feds represent Earth and the audience lives on Earth, so what more do you want? And then NPCs scratch their head why everyone else likes Zeon better.

>>1022 What makes you say that? >>1500 >There's an underlying assumption that audiences are just going to side with the feds by default and then the writing does nothing to actually earn the feds that sympathy. Amuro had a crush on Matilda, so of course the Feds are the good guys DUH ! >>1353 >Spacenoids will never mentally progress Wow, racist.

>>1353 That's just Side 2 being retarded and drinking the matriarchy koolaid.

>>1697 How do you do the flag?

For me it's the Titans because their uniforms are cool.

>>2014 Click on <More under the captcha line. >>2016 How are they any cooler than Zeon's?

AIIIIIEE UNFILTERED CINEMA . Fuck, do I wish that I wasn't so fucking Jewish and just bought the tickets to watch the movie in France

This anime is making me feel like an old man perving on young girls who I tricked into playing with my gunpla.

>>27 (OP) Do you think cameos would detract from the new characters they want to push? What i mean is, would fans rather talk about alternate history Amuro or Gato over their new OC?

>>2218 that is very oddly specific... >>2253 people can talk about both, if having Char win the OYW didn't stop people from gushing over Machu and Shuuji I don't see how Amuro and Gato showing up would be different as long as they keep the new characters interesting and doing cool stuff people will like them and talk about them

>>2253 I don't think Char and Amuro detracted from Kamille's popularity.

Imagine

>>2272 From mommy issues to daddy issues.

>>1429 That's Lieutenant Quattro Bajeena though

>>2253 The old guard doesn't have to detract from the new characters, nor vice versa, but they are competing for precious little screentime, which is a shame. Something is going to fall by the wayside, some of the potential is bound to end up wasted. The premise of this show could truly be the stuff for a 50 episodes run, but sadly modern execs don't have the stomach for that kind of commitment anymore. AGE must've burned them badly and IBO appears to have been the final nail on the coffin.

>>2331 It was IBO having a Tomino ending that did it, I'm sure of it.

>>1500 I mean there's that but also just the fact that you know, the Federation in essence doesn't really need defending, it's the same faction as the protagonists, and they're (at least in MSG) not the ones shown dropping colonies on earth. Meanwhile Zeon gives us characrer after character after character of "this is a good person who's just fighting for the wrong side". Which is why to me, as much as I like their aesthetic, the Titans are terrible as a faction. Anyone sympathetic in it has either already defected to the AEUG, or is quite literally brainwashed. It's like rooting for Zanscare. >>946 >They got the better aesthetics No that's the Titans because they have that Steppin' Out aesthetic going for their uniforms. You can't top the Neil.

>>946 >There's not a single argument for being a Fedfag. The easiest argument in favor of the Federation and its status quo is spending a week in an actual shithole on our planet and seeing how much better we have it and how much of the status quo is worth preserving. People who compare modern western nations to third world countries, have never been to third world countries.

>>946 >Everyone's a Zeonfag No. Just no and bay a long sho- >better aesthetics HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHA no >>1353 This. >>2468 And this.

>>2664 (Dead) Tau.

>>2433 I think only because it nuked any spin-off/sequel potential. I don't remember anybody actually hating IBO after it aired, save for a couple of triggered people who perhaps self-insert too much and aren't accustomed to bad and bittersweet endings. >>2464 >I mean there's that but also just the fact that you know, the Federation in essence doesn't really need defending, it's the same faction as the protagonists, and they're (at least in MSG) not the ones shown dropping colonies on earth. One of the better things SEED did is making both sides equally deranged and morally-grey. Orb should have received the same treatment instead of being portrayed as a Mary Sue nation. >>2468 Feddies started forcefully shipping people to space, so I don't know what you are about. They are good...because they want to monopolise all Earth land for (((environmental emergency))) reasons?

>>2695 I thought Nips hated the way IBO ended

What a slap to the face for Gundam >https://www.animenewsnetwork.com/news/2025-04-19/japanese-animation-tv-ranking-april-7-13/.223694

>>2712 I don't get it. A 3.4 rating on par with Doraemon is considered bad?

>>2713 It was aired as a segment of some late-night variety show. https://desuarchive.org/m/thread/23178041/#23179531

>>2749 It doesn't change a thing, the show airs normally like any other show with a few gundam related ads in the middle.

I know that Machu x Shuji is the main ship, but it seems rather by-the-book to me. Newtypes being drawn to each other and falling for each other is a Gundam staple (and got overused to the point of ridiculousness in Zeta) - it's to be expected and that's boring and predictable. I'm not asking for tearing down the franchise and giving it the finger (like what Netflix did with their Cowboy Bebop) - I simply don't want a rehash of the entire UC and its characters and tropes (Unicorn already did that kek). I do not want the lesbian ship to be a thing either (this would be blatant riding on the coattails of GWitch). What about something new for a change? Machu x Xavier? It would be a very fresh dynamic you'd have to navigate from scratch, not relying on previous Gundam subplots.

>>2860 But Xavier is a newtype too.

>>2865 He isn't autistic, "le quirky" or plain crazy (a requirement for every Newtype romance to blossom), so his Newtype Love Quest points are 0.

>>2869 Well I can't argue with that, but then what's keeping them together? There's a reason Kamille and Four had chemistry, but how would you pair up Machu and Xavier? It's all in the execution anon. source: x.com/mn38ka/status/1913952406636761286

>>2880 >but how would you pair up Machu and Xavier? I don't want to sperg out too much, but... So many opportunities to cover new ground. Xavier is a war refugee - his worldview likely encompasses some degree of aversion to wanton conflict, coupled with a saviour complex. He wouldn't understand why a regular civilian having a comfortable life on a peaceful colony would get herself into risky robot battles for the thrill. He'd be disturbed and annoyed with it, he'd feel a strong compulsion to make her stop. According to the laws of anime, obsession leads to love. He'd keep on chasing after Amate to protect her from herself. As for Yuzuriha - she's just twisted and watched Pokemon for Team Rocket, okay?

What do you think happened to Glemy and Ple? >>90 Challia Bull is meant to be a main character and easy to associate with the show. That, or someone at Sunrise thought having a fat, old man as a main character would be unappealing but the rest of the characters being unchanged was fine. >>114 >Also what the hell happened to Amuro? He may have become an engineer like his father and could be filthy rich from Haros. Amuro, Kamille, and Judau working together at Anaheim would be capeshit. >>348 >So does Federation MS development proceed based on the Guncannon? Development saw the Guncannon as the chosen suit as the Federation never abandoned big ship, big gun doctrine. At least it's not Zanny data. >>432 Challia only lost against Amuro because Zeon didn't give him an Elmeth. >>524 >was she ever? Per the 2015 manga, it seems like she's dead. I doubt we'll see any anti-Newtype weapons make a major appearance. >everything Operation Rubicon Doesn't happen. There's no NT-1 to steal as there's no Gundam to steal. >the entire SEA campaign from 08th Probably handwaved or mentioned in a cameo. >how did North America go for Zeon? I doubt they'll include anything involving the Panama and Alaska Bases. >Astaroth I fucking wish. >>647 Zeon not exterminating Earthnoids after the war is unrealistic as long as Gihren or Kycilia is in charge. At best, the situation would look like G-Witch's Earth. At worst, After War's Earth. >>946 Axis Zeon>Zeon>Jupiter Empire>Cosmo Babylonia>Titans>Crossbone Vanguard>Sleeves>Neo Zeon>EFF>Everyone Else>Zanscare when it comes to aesthetics.

>>2989 >Glemy and Ple Glemy is a Zabi living if royal gibs Ple gets adopted by a spacenoid ojisan and makes the Puru clones the old fashioned way

>>2917 >He'd keep on chasing after Amate to protect her from herself This sounds real cute but it loops back to Shuuji being the drug dealer junky boyfriend that hooks Machu on newtypism and Xavier is the cuck that keeps trying to save her but she's too doped out to realize or even care about him.

>>3031 >Glemy is a Zabi living if royal gibs Would that mean the Totos gave him back or that Gihren rehabilitated him? The Totos got him before 0079.

6 hours to go! >>2989 >filthy rich from Haros >tfw Amuro defects to Zeon, because it's the only thriving market for the Haros >>3095 >This sounds real cute but it loops back to Shuuji being the drug dealer junky boyfriend that hooks Machu on newtypism and Xavier is the cuck that keeps trying to save her but she's too doped out to realize or even care about him This actually would make a brilliant hook for a Gundam show. As long as it doesn't get the IBO end, I support it.

4 hours til the last movie episode lads

1 hour!

JIMU TIME

Episode 3 finished. Next week we finally gonna get new stuff that were not part of the movie. >https://x.com/tocodot/status/1914710534693511444

Now that that's out of the way, does it make sense that they changed the order of things for TV?

>https://x.com/G_GQuuuuuuX/status/1914711317723926941 They released the insert song in this episode.

>>3292 They didn't just change the order but cut a bunch of stuff from the OYW part to fit into the tv episode.

>>3292 Not really, they basically did a Victory Gundam.

>>3292 >>3294 We'll probably have to wait and see if Challia keeps having OYW flashbacks. >>3296 Not quite.

>>3302 They cut the stuff related to the Rose of Sharon that is mentioned in the flashback and later Shuji mention (just as Rose, afaik).

>>3310 Yeah that's what I mean, they framed the OYW part as Challia remembering his beloved Red Comet, will he keep having those moments? If yes then I don't care that they chopped it all up, if not then it feels like an important part is missing.

I got suprised because I thought they would recycle the same preview but no, new stuff insyead red and green ZM next week, nuDoms in two?

I'm so fucking happy that JYB isn't Shuji's dub voice. Heck, this whole show seems to be getting used as a way to train new dub talent.

>>2698 I don't think Japan even watched IBO.

Moviefags tell me, did they skip scenes again?

I love how gorgeous this show is. Feels so good compared to most other anime.

>>3337 no

>>3338 I like how alive the city looks, that shot of the colony changing from day to night in the first episode was really good, and in this episode when Challia is in the car or walking in the colony it looked really nice too.

>>3334 I miss the Ocean crew. Gendumb is not the same without half the cast being voiced by Scott Mcniel.

>>3335 You are tripping.

>>3349 They should really make a redub of Zeta and ZZ one of these days so that actual talent can try delivering those lines instead of scabs and ASEAN janitors.

>>702 >watched the movie >the episodes sound like a reordering of the movie except with less detail >no motivation to watch it even though I don't know how the OP and ED go yet

>>3358 >actual talent So Japanese seiyuu?

>>3337 All they did was change out the insert song for another shitty pop song that doesn't match the scene

It would be interesting to note down all the elements G-Witch plagiarised as the show goes on. So far we have a redhead MC whose mom has an important position and hobnobs with officials. >>3335 Of course they did. Those Orga memes weren't born in a vacuum. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ig-w0X5QGj8 >>3367 Spoiler this.

Shrooms!

I hope Xavier doesn't remain a loser for the rest of the show

Char's soul in the Gundam - pretty much confirmed, eh? I wish they had used more 2D shots in the battle. Why don't they even wear proper pilot suits? How do they hide the robots from the cops?

>>3373 >How do they hide the robots from the cops? Very carefully.

It would be super-boring to just have live sports TV episode-to-episode. THE COLONY GETTING REKT WHEN >>3372 Same. Being beaten up by the po po is humiliating enough.

>>3372 He managed to hold out against a Gundam without psycommu, that's something right?

>>3378 Just like how dogs love shoving their noses into sweaty pits, Machu loves it when her mav is at their stinkiest

>>3382 uh I think they do that because of the warmth, not the smell in particular

>>3378 >Shuuji smells of glue and pot

>>3384 /m/autist, please learn to play along with jokes

>>3386 feline hands typed this

>>3392 Nyaani?!

>>3395 meant for >>3392

>>3395 >WORDS CAN'T HURT ME but fists can >>3397 I think they should use more closeup shots of the Sodon, shots like this make it seem very small

>>2860 Please, threesome ending! Shuji x Machu x Blue hair girl!

>>3372 hopefully he pilots something unique again, won't be the GQuuux doe >>3373 >Why don't they even wear proper pilot suits? I've noticed it sometimes takes time for the protag(s) to wear their normal suits within the first episodes of a Gundam show >How do they hide the robots from the cops? on top of that, it's a stolen experimental mobile suit and the other one mysteriously came back, and you have to hide both of them while participating in illegal underground fights with jailbroken Zaku's Shuji is autistic but I don't know how Machu can cope with all of this

>>3395 How does she manage to look so cool?

>>3402 >Blue hair girl Shuuji is a boy.

I know people compare Shuuji and Four but he reminds me of Kaworu personally.

>>3411 As soon as I saw the first trailer I made the Kaworu comparison too, it's a bit too blatant.

>>3414 Eh I feel like their personalities are opposite. Shuji's a giga autist so far.

>>3411 >>3414 >>3415 He's clearly a Rei and Kaworu lovechild

>>3418 >a Rei and Kaworu lovechild Canon btw.

>yuri >random arena battles is this just gwitch but if gwitch didn't suck ass?

>>3364 You don't have to respond if you don't care about dubs.

>Gquuuuuux is a placeholder name kek also >Evangelion cross as the fight is won I don't know how much this Gundam is Anno's Gundam but surely there is that Gainax DNA in here

>>3468 >Evangelion cross it's just a red X

>>3469 not really knowing who is making this series and what they made before. I don't think it's that much of a stretch to say that this is a subtle reference to their previous works

>>2695 >One of the better things SEED did is making both sides equally deranged and morally-grey. Except the problem wasn't the federation, it was that they had been coopted by extremists in blue cosmos

>>3479 Seed was retarded. Seed Destiny was more retarded. Lacus is shit.

>>3473 I mean it's really just a basic shape, can that be considered a reference? I don't wanna get anal about semantics but it's probably just their style, like Tomino having characters slap each other every so often

>>3498 cant wait for the zeon-gm art to come out, im digging its blocky legs

>>3498 Killed by Shuji already

>>946 kill every zeek

>>2989 >Everyone Else>Zanscare when it comes to aesthetics. You can't say this when the Adrastea-class and Neneka Corps exist. They are peak aesthetics.

>>2989 >What do you think happened to Glemy and Ple Nobody on this production cares about Gihren and his extracanonically-explained superchildren.

>>2695 >morally grey One of the persistent criticisms of Seed Destiny bashers is that the Alliance are all cartoonishly evil with no nuance.

>>3593 >Nobody on this production cares about Gihren >he doesn't know

any breast envy connoisseurs?

>>3601 Nyaan doesn't envy since she has Mashu's Mashus to herself every night

Why did she immediately know that the hobo she just met was actually a pilot and asked him to be her Mav?

>>3613 The kirakira she experienced in newtype space and the kirakira she saw the hobo graffiti-ing are the same

>>3613 Watch the show nigga.

>>3613 he *literally* painted a red comet together with a white comet in front of her mashu isn't some retard

The insert songs are really bad and kill the pace of the fights I hope they stop

>>3635 Yeah they fucking suck but I'm sure they've made some deal with Sony to shill their vtumor as much as possible

Why did the colony give the arrested pilot back to the Zeeks? Did they get anything in return?

>>3662 it was a 'bribe' to get the rocking horse out of their colony

>>27 (OP) >Refugees

>>3411 Kitten-killing when? >>3422 CAN'T UNSEE >>3479 >it was that they had been coopted by extremists in blue cosmos They let themselves be coopted, because the upper rank were rotten and true believers.

>>27 (OP) why are there so many feet shots in this show? feet fetishts are gross

>>3720 Are there? I haven't noticed. It must be one of those things you only pay attention to if you're into it.

>>3610 cute sluts

>>3721 a feetfag is working at Khara

this should ahve been ep 2. "lol remember gundam" was fun and all but a waste of time.

>>3728 Nah it's fine as it is.

So how does Machu know hot to pilot the fucking Gundam? And don't fucking tell me its the psychomu because it didn't activate in this episode. In other Gundam shows the pilots at least had some know how on engineering or mech knowledge. This bitch just has powers to know how to pilot a fucking Gundam out of nowhere? You can't convince me this garbage is any good.

wow new type magic sure is gay and on the nose in this one huh?

>>3752 > And don't fucking tell me its the psychomu because it didn't activate in this episode Ok, I won't.

>mobile suit battle almost kills random space truckers >truckers honk the horn in space I see were in full on zany starwars tier science fantasy land now

>>3765 Why are you mad at this but not MS explosions making sound in space since the very beginning of the series?

>>3765 Invent Anonsky particles, and you will be able to honk in space too

This beanie is the property of Anki's dead newtype bf/gf, 100%.

>>3752 Perhaps they teach kids how to pilot mecha at their school. Any it's one-size-fits-all when it comes to piloting, like it's for driving cars. >>3765 The same happened in episode 1. What do you expect from the FLCL director?

>>3752 >>3765 So many Cinemasins graduates lately.

>>3796 We're just following /m/ traditions.

>>3760 You're not supposed to disagree with him, you're supposed to hate that Gundam is hunting for a female market instead of pandering exclusively to Zeta fans.

>Refugee >Finally make it to a respectable position >Can't get his Gundam to work properly >Gets his Gundam stolen >Gets detained by the police >Gets beaten up >Nobody cares about him except for his superior and a random girl Being Xavier is suffering

>>3816 I wonder what he's going to pilot next.

>>3796 >Cinemasins graduates Kek there really is no other word for it. At least the culture warrior that used to be there seems to be gone. I appreciate the trade off.

>>3809 That's a bit difficult to grasp from just one speedwatching post but I'll be more careful next time.

>>3820 Maybe the Rick Dom from the trailer?

>>3809 >to Zeta fans That Zeta hate came out of nowhere. >>3820 I want it to be a Mobile Armour. >>3829 That would be such a downgrade, give this guy a break. He's suffered enough.

>>3824 Why is bro stuffed in the fridge?

>>3816 >G-Xavier he should be happy that anybody cares for him at all.

This timeline is shit because the Rick Dias doesn't exist in it

Now that Shuuji and Machu both do extreme sports for pay, what's Nyaan's role in the story? I bet she'll defect to Zeon and become the antagonist. >>3863 He is going to serve himself.

>>3882 Why would Zeon want her? She's a barely competent courrier. She seems to be the third wheel of the story so far

>>3891 I don't know, turn her into a spy or something. Just let her do anything other than being the MC's 'best friend/emotional support animal/love rival'.

Shitji ruined this show in record time. Machu and Nyaan were perfect together and then the dickhead swooped in and fucking ruined it for us all.

>>927 >Because Anno want to make his Gundam fanfiction a reality just like all the other Shin-{insert showa era franchise here} movies he made. Anno didn't want to make this project to begin with, he's doing it as a favor to Tsurumaki that got the chance to do it and asked him. >

>>946 >Everyone's a Zeonfag. They got the better aesthetics I wil stop you right there, nothing beats the Titans jackets.

>>3863 His heart froze on the day Char disappeared... u_u >>3882 Although this explanation is also valid kek

>>3900 /u/ mad

>>3900 >us all > The gwitch thread is two blocks down.

>>3900 *saved

>>3900 This post and the replies to it wouldn't be made in the /a/ thread due to IDs

>>3918 So?

>>3918 Keep telling yourself that.

>>3918 >absolutely impossible more than one poster on my manly imageboard like this guy!

>>3900 /u/fags tears are so good. Guess some shitposters like you migrated here

>>3900 I liked gwitch but Yuri fags gotta go cant you people just wait for degenerate doujins why does the show have to include your fantasy

>>3936 i have nothing against /u/fags that way i can have shuuji for myself

So Red Gundam was Shuuji after all, huh. So he was in episode 1

>>3939 straights left out in the cold once again

Is Gqux the first Gundam that uses a Heat Hawk?

>>3949 Amuro frequently used his opponent's heathawks to finish them

>>3923 No, what he meant is that nobody would be as spontaneous with their opinions and funposting with IDs present. The disgruntled /u/fag would be ridiculed not only for his /u/ post, but for all other posts he made in the thread.

>>3963 >all other posts he made in the thread bold of you to assume he posted anything else at all and isn't just a shitposter trying to rile you up (he succeeded)

>>3967 Amazing how a single sentence could stick in someone's mind enough to be their sole focus for several hours of posts.

>>1353 This. G-reco, Crossbone and Victory all imply leaving earth long term results in losing a party of your humanity.

>>3973 You forgot Turn A.

>>3976 Turn A was more about humanity having a instinctual drive to return to Earth, but yeah it works towards the same idea.

Are we getting rape next ep?

>>3986 It's not like there's an alternative beside rape for Machu, Shuji is clearly attracted to his gundam.

>>3993 Then she shall become the Gundam!

>>3998 Shuji already has a mother, sorry.

>>3999 It's UC 0085, he can have two.

Why are you watching this anime? We all know it's going to go to shit just like G-Witch. Why are we futiley hoping for a good anime instead of going to Sunrise's offices and murdering everyone there in revenge for not giving us a good enough anime?

>>4003 Because Sunrise is no more, but I'd gladly do it to BAMCO Filmworks.

>>4003 >we >us Doomposter please fuck off and stay fucked off.

>>3963 oh. ya maybe, idk. ids are spooky as shit and im really glad /m/ has none but i dont feel ashamed to like this character, hes cute.

>>4003 >instead of going to Sunrise's offices and murdering everyone there in revenge for not giving us a good enough anime? Oh the edge. Nobody's stopping you, coward. Do it first you little bitch, we'll be watching you from the back. >>4010 He really is, he might be the most sexual teenage boy design since Slaine.

Challia Bull’s new design is perfection, he is so handsome it drives me insane. Going to buy GQu6X gunpla if I don’t find figurines of him so keikaku doori for the Gundam marketing team I guess

>>647 >Operation British and the colony gassings that wiped out half of humanity still happened >Zeon >Good

>>4002 Machu isn't qualified to raise my son. If we want Shuji to grow into the newest Gundam homme fatale, only Char's guidance can help him.

>>4085 >only Char's guidance can help him Char couldn't even help himself.

>>4089 You misunderstand me, I do not wish for a happy, well adjusted Shuji. I want him to grow up into the sexiest, most tragic, most pathetic man alive.

It's zoomerish to the point that it's the first time I genuinely think that i'm not target audience anymore. While I've enjoyed GWitch to some degree, GQX has that particular flavor of eva rebuilds, which I absolutely hate.

>>3752 Even psycommu takes work to get used to, especially if the Newtype isn't strong enough. It must be because of the Alpha/Omega Psycommu OC in Equx. However, space colonists do need to be far more mechanically able than Earthnoids, so that could be it too. >>3900 >no more /u/ Picked up. Equx is superior to G-Witch by default as long as /u/ doesn't come back. >>4069 >muh G3 >muh British You understand that most of the colonies were destroyed by warfare, right? Zeon intentionally destroyed colonies then gassed any that were left, and G3 isn't painful. Even then, the alternative to British is what, Z/ZZ/CCA? Victory? G-Saviour? Equx's timeline already has Gihren and Kycilia somehow have their hands tied after the OYW to keep them from Total Earthnoid Death. Zeon is better than it has been in almost any depiction yet.

>>3900 Throuple ending

>>4140 Shuji harem ending?

This is Amate Yuzuriha! Please let me through!

How do I get someone like this in my life? Seriously, no homo.

>>4003 >it's going to go to shit just like G-Witch And why do you think that? At least the creators of G-QUACKS are into Gundam and Zeonfags to boot. The best you could have got out of G-Witch was always Code Geass Gundam. >>4085 Char's soul has already groomed him and turned him into his ideal tool for revenge on the Zabis. >inb4 Gihren's illegitimate daughter Nyaan

>>4092 So you want Slaine 2.0 that badly? >>4098 >has that particular flavor of eva rebuilds Where? Other than surface-level references like >>3473 >>4212 >steal a Gundam >win the war Simples.

>>3900 He's a non character right now. Shitposters were pretending that there was some epic romance in the movie so far in the show nothing like that happened. He's just some autist.

>>4235 Blind or retarded?

They seem more like friends or roommates than lovers in the ED. And that's fine, it's very cute. I do like Nyaan more than Shuuji, though, at least so far. >>3894 I hear that. She doesn't really seem to have much to do, and that's pretty worrying.

Do you think that trying to hook up the V-Tuber audience will backfire? I don't think there is any overlap in interests AT ALL. V-Tumour fans aren't even into shipping, sci-fi anime, let alone big robots (or oldfag properties like NGE, Gundam). I'd be much more willing to shill those avatars to gachafags. >>4235 He's the endgame. You can't fight the Newtype magic.

>>4312 They're doing what now? >He's the endgame. You can't fight the Newtype magic. If we're speaking of newtype magic, he could just stop existing or turn back into Char or who fucking knows by the endgame. Anything could happen.

>>4313 >They're doing what now? The ED and an insert song are by a VTuber.

>>4312 >>4317 For a gundam fan you sure keep talking about vtubers. >>>/vyt/

>>4324 Is making observations haram in this thread or what?

>>4312 >You can't fight the Newtype magic War has a really good track record at killing Newtype romances.

>>4312 >I don't think there is any overlap in interests AT ALL You don't think there's any overlap because you aren't familiar with either fandom, you homosexual tourist.
