As someone who has yet to see Unicorn Gundam, I was worried that my enjoyment of Gundam NT would be hampered. To my surprise, however, the quality of the film is irrelevant to whoever has watched Unicorn Gundam or even has seen a previous Gundam series at all. Gundam Narrative is just bad. Whether the person watching it is a die-hard UC fan or a newcomer to the franchise, the movie is terrible on its own merit.

Story: 2/10

Here is Gundam NT's biggest flaw: its paper thin and boring story. The story, at least, does a decent job of explaining the events that happened previously which ...

Perhaps this is one of the worst creations that mankind could ever create this far. It's just a horrible, disgusting and fully talentless incompetent piece of "ART". The name "Narrative" for the movie is highly ironic since it completely lacks a plot - there none of it. Things just happen, characters just doing some stuff and somehow creators come to idea thats that it - it works. Hell if it was.
If "Unicorn" at least tried to build a decorations of the "Just OK" anime, but meanwhile stayed completely derivative to the UC context without telling any of its own story... "Narrative" as its sequel ...

(TLDR at the bottom, thanks for reading.)

This review is going to be split up into two parts, part 1 will be a very opinionated take from a gundam fan and how this entry affects the overall canon and the second part will be a less opinionated, more standard review of the film.

Part 1 - Gundam:

Harutoshi Fukui seems to of had 3 specific goals when making gundam NT. The first one was "how can I make sense of all the newtype bullshit in gundam?", "How can I make a thematic end to UC?" and, "Why is there no psycho-frame in F91?" Fukui tried to make sense ...

I'll get this out of the way: I hate this movie. I went out of my way to see it and still almost walked out to stand out in the cold outside rather than watch it to it's predictable mind numbing conclusion.

Positives first, the animation, art, and sound are all good, I am going to make this a backhanded compliment by saying that with this budget and time they really don't have an excuse not to be but there you go. If you want don't want your eyes to bleed than this is for you. And while the sound ...

I went in into Narrative expecting a dumpster fire of a movie that tried to piggyback itself into the heart of the viewers by referencing older Gundam works, want to guess what i got? Yeah, it couldn't even do that, it couldn't even made me go "Oh! look, that's something that Kamille did in Zeta!, or look! i know that! that's like the ZZ's High Mega Cannon!"

STORY

But, let's start from the beginning, aka, the story, this part of the review contains spoilers for the entire movie, and its gonna be long, very long, but the thing is so bad i just HAVE to talk about ...

After seeing Dragon Ball Super: Broly on the big screens (and the last couple of DB movies) I really wanted Sunrise to put out a good Gundam movie. I paid to see this in the theaters with my brother, who is a bigger Gundam fan than me. Unfortunately, I was sorely disappointed. This movie proves that Sunrise has no respect for their franchise and that the Japanese Gundam fanboys will literally just accept anything because of their love for robots punching face. I don't like Gundam Unicorn because it's just a bad rehash of Universal Century with new animation, but with far worse characters. I'm ...

This movie is simply awful. If you're an older fan like me, your tolerance for poor storytelling becomes lower and lower. Nothing about this felt like a Gundam property - the returning cameos from Unicorn are barely seen and look awful without YAS's guiding hand - Mineva Zabi looks okay, but mostly because she stays seated in a chair and doesn't turn her head or change expressions. The rest of the characters look like turn of the century central casting - the female lead looks like low-budget Faye Valentine, the flashbacks to the kids ...

To be fair, Newtypes have been strange since the beginning. After Unicorn, NT follows and expands dramatically on the Newtype. On the other hand, there's much too much focus on Newtypes that it drowned all the other parts of the story. This film feels weak, though it starts to develop in an interesting way with the ever evolving Newtypes, and mankind's new mission to become immortal among some of the characters. Hardly any of the new characters are likeable. Jona is the only decent one though an hour and a half movie and the weak story didn't do enough for his character.

He's friends with Rita, ...

I don't like to give spoilers in my reviews, but this movie is so garbage that I have to make an exception. Spoiler warning ahead, I guess, in case you're really determined to go into this sorry excuse for a film blind.

Narrative centers around 3 "miracle children" (never mentioned before), who have been trapped in a cyber-newtype lab for a large portion of their lives, presumably during the Gryps conflict. Only one of them, apparently, was an actual newtype, and the other two only have powers due to some vestiges of proximity to her. Years in the future, the two escaped non-newtype kids are Federation ...

This was probably the kind of sequel that Unicorn deserves. Personally, I actually enjoyed this more than Unicorn, but that's because enduring Unicorn is like watching paint dry, paint that retcons several important story elements of the universe with an incredbly silly central conflict. NT strives to improve on the formula by not having a central conflict instead.

Much like my review, this film is a mess. By the virture of it being mercifully shorter than Unicorn, I enjoy it a bit more. It still suffers from nearly every problem that it's predecessor does. Lame characters, thin narrative, and too much super robot nonsense. I know ...
