Hmm...

I thought you messed up 0079 (universal century year) as '79 (our year) from the context of your post
he was talking about universal century history and not how msg impacted the medium and whatnot (i notice you always bring stuff like up wherever you can btw xD)

i asked this too in the anime entry forums of Gundam The Origin and they say there is no way it will only have 4 episodes, that 4 episodes will just be like the prequel to the main story


I hope so but my wallet hopes not, since the BDs are super-expensive imports and the box is so freakin' huge I don't know what to do with more of them. They also come with an English Audio track which is great though.


ah you are financially helping the anime industry, thats great

Boo they're not worth it, feeble minded gundumb rabble wouldn't know creativity if it smacked them in the face.
Especially if it has cgi, oh no the big bad cgi antichrist.

They're all living in the past besides.

Oh, be nice.


Tomino deserves more credit in the western fanbase now? That's interesting considering he gets leaps and bounds more recognition than virtually any other mecha director.

Gundam 00
Turn A Gundam
Gundam Wing
Gundam Seed
Mobile Fighter G Gundam
Gundam Build Fighters
Mobile Suit Gundam AGE
After War Gundam X

these are the alternative universes as far as i know. (they are not related to the 'original' aka Universal Century)
only seen 00 of these so far but I can definitely recommend it
although I say go and watch the original series (universal century universe) it's great

This. Except Turn A does reference some UC events...
And for OP, don't watch G Reco without any UC knowledge...

It's not a remake of MSG. The manga is a retelling of the original, and this 4 ovas are going to adapt only the stories about Char's past.

Wing. Gundam Wing is the only Gundam anime you should ever acknowledge exists, let alone watch.

Did a quick check.
The manga seem to start where the original series did..
So it will follow up to that point in the future, probably, maybe, perhaps.

Anyway, we kind of derailed the topic. So let's stahp.

The Origin isn't going to be a full adaptation of the Manga, with the episode count it has that much is certain.
Probably just all of the scenes that Yasuhiko independently wrote that are relevant to the overarching story, and how they tie in to the really pivotal plot points.

Heck, maybe they will all focus on Char's past, I didn't bother to watch the first one so I can't say.
