Look, I've only seen 0079 and G-Witch, and so far this one looks to be even worse than G-Witch.

This series is Acolyte, Star Trek: Section 31, Rings of Power, Wheel of Time of Gundam. Another attempt to turn boys brand into girl brand.
FMC's are dumb over even dumber MC. The whole Clan Battle(to death) setup is so stupid. The only good thing are visuals and 2 eps with Char.

@kuribo-04 Well its a strong majority of people who are “woke” aka far left who believe that and if you don’t agree you are a type of “phobic” a word you’ve been slinging a lot in these comments. What I said earlier isn’t shameful it’s the truth. You can have gay people in shows without making it a stupid propaganda shitfest. That’s why people are starting to have pride fatigue. You call people who call it out weirdos meanwhile it’s fine for kids to see men in gimp suits at pride parades.

First of all the story is like rushed to the extent that it barely makes any sense this is coming from someone who watched the original series so I guess new comers will be even more confused second the Main trio barely received any development and they just exist there while all the plot line will make perfect sense even without them or when do take the spotlight since they have no development it just end up plain boring and and the last episode did not solve any of these and just abruptly ended everything

Lmao, the cope in this thread saying this is better than G-Witch. Did they get hit with dementia or something? Did they forget how good Season 1 was? The execution in the prologue alone was better than anything GQuuuuuuX has to offer. Feels like the people claiming GQuuuuuuX is better are just some oldies with a weird hate boner for G-Witch. At least be consistent.

I might've said it's the worst of the ones I've seen (admittedly not all that many) in the first half, but the second half's been pretty exciting. Still rushed, but I'd say most of the second half's biggest weaknesses could've been fixed by being set up better in the first half.

I haven't watched much Gundam, but this was definitely bad, both as a Gundam show and as a Khara show about robot battles, magic people and alternate dimensions.

The main trio of MCs are really shallow, with basically no characterization and most of their actions makes absolutely no sense, episode 1-5 were awful imo, i even dropped the show, after being told ep.7 was fire, i picked it back up and was legit enjoying it, bc it finally felt like a Gundam series and not an action rom-com with bland autistic characters and low stakes fights, great animation though.

Second half of the show felt like a completely different beast, but it also falls short bc it doesn't have enough time to let the threads develop and rest, with a final episode straight out of Evangelion and not the good one, which seal it's coffin shut.

Sunrise must be really desperate to make Gundam as popular as it once was, trying to give moe artstyle to it's main characters and injecting yuri bait to attract a different audience to watch it, wasn't Origin popular enough? That was basically the perfect way to introduce new people to Gundam.

This one can definitely high-five reconguista cause it is equally bad if not worse for me. Completely wasted setting, didn't expect it to go into such weird, chaotic and rushed conclusion. A plot-twist but not one I would appreciate. Also they managed to make one of worst "last episodes" I've watched. Really dissapointing for a Gundam.

The designs and art was ok, although I don't get the final space magic that was introduced with blowfish gundam and the other that opened its "mouth" and started screaming. If I want to see/hear screaming giant in mecha fights I would rather watch Heroic Age, would be a better use of my time than this show.

And yeah, I agree with opinions that this show had signs of desperate attempts to bring different audience in. As usual, it backfires cause that "target" audience is not that interested and is given bad show, and the loyal audience is dissappointed. Lose-lose situation.

Already finished watching this series and i gonna say, yeah!!! This series isnt as good compare to other gundam series being aired post pandemic… this started with some clan battle being infused in UC timeline (which had a bad implementation) only to have a real war out of nowhere…

I hope the next gundam series to be air will just go with the try and tested formula; this current gundam and the WFM (witch from mercury) are nice attempts but its nowhere near as good as IBO series (let alone those older gundam series like seed/destiny, 00, wing etc.)

@SeasideLua IBO had it's problems in the S2, but even more, S1 and part of S2 was peak. Same with Gwitch. Man, even AGE had it's points. I am not even talking about SeeD Freedom because it's a movie and have more production time, more budget...

Here, we have a literally 12 cour anime where the main cast doesn't even go deep in it's relation, we don't know anything about their goals until the last episode... And the series expected that you cares about then... yeah, not gonna happen.

Besides why did they promo the anime as "Machu would find the Illegal Sport called Clan Battles" because they are inconsequential for the plot.

I think the pacing was bad but what can you expect nowadays; the conclusion was a bit weird but I hope they find a way to make everything work in a following season.
All in all I'd say it's not that bad, but that might be an opinion I hold because I didn't watch episodes weekly but rather in one go so bad parts get skipped over quickly.

@SteelingMax We have compeltely the same opinion. I watched 1-5 and half of 6. Dropped. Then came back to watch ep12 because my friend told me second half was good again. Then, mightyly disappointed by it for the same reason you do.

And I don't know why people are saying war is irrelevant in 2025. Didn't you guys all see the news about the Russian war with Ukraine? And the middle east tension never stopped.

Gquuuuuux asks interesting questions if you're willing to dive into it. Instead, I see a lot of people critiquing it by claiming it doesn't explain things that it does clearly explain or that the show is failing to do stuff it very clearly does. People don't have to like Gquuuuuux, I'm not claiming is particularly good, but if you don't give it a chance or try to engage in it, then it's not all that serious of an opinion.

Gquuuuuux is adequate, which is unfortunate because it's a sketch of a story that could've been great. I'll still take the anime that explores an actual idea over the increasing number that don't have anything to say.

Strong animation and music with some cool designs. The rest? Really bad, overall the most fair rating I can give is a below average 4/10 rating.

Im honestly just waiting for Bandai to announce Urdr Hunt's broadcast as the some kits have been announced for Fall of this year, so potential release at the 10th anniversary of IBO?

The main fault is belong to whoever decide this show is just 12 instead 26 episodes. Tbh 26 episodes mecha anime is not always works but 12 is just doesn't work at all, especially Gundam series with their P-bandit money backup.

I like how people here jump to conclusion that this is the worst Gundam show ever made, when stuff like IGLOO, Twilight AXIS, Witch of Mercury and Gundam: Requiem for Vengeance
exist. Even with their faults they are still great shows to watch. I guess people here arent true Gundam fans, since they have no idea what they want. Its like Sonic fans, they keep shouting for something they want and when they get something they hate it cause its not like what their nostalgia is like.

All in all, none of you are true Gundam fans. This show was made with the implication for long term fans. Sucks to suck if you dont understand it, may be in the future when you re-watch this series youll understand why its fun and great.

Witch of Mercury


Witch from Mercury may have been rushed in it's final stages, but it was a very competent series that established it's characters' traits (both main characters and support ones), their goals and the whole foundation of their surroundings. It wasn't some aura farming show like GCUcks that relied on good animation with souless characters doing stuff just for the sake of moving forward a story written on a laptop at starbucks by a junkie fanfic writer self gratifying himself on nostalgia bait just to sell more cheap plastic gunpla.

I always laugh at these "you aren't fans of <insert geek fandom>" kind of empty gatekeeping arguments. Inhale harder on that copium. Maybe someday you'll understand that a good show for fans isn't just one that leans only on cameos over proper writting and execution.

Genuinely there's no way anyone can tell me this show was better then WFM.

Gqx does almost nothing right in terms of writing, like almost everything else from animation, art direction and music is great but the writing is awful and just relies on nostalgia and references to do the heavy lifting, which it can't.

Like explain to me why does Felsi, a second tier supporting character in WFM, have better development than Gqx's own main protagonists?

@GoombaKing77 The anime already ended, there's no "jump to conclusion". and you're talking about muh true gundam fans lmao so true gundam fans just eat every shit sunrise popped out? The mech design in this anime isn't even good. It's just awful on every single aspect. there's like 30 new posts since the last time I visited this thread and I'm glad that most people are now seeing the truth.

People like to shit on other Gundam series like SEED Destiny or G-Reco or AGE or IBO or G-Witch, but even assuming you're right that those series are complete shit (they aren't), at least they have cool as fuck mecha design that translated to plamo sales. MG Vidar released a while ago and everyone loved it despite it being a kind of minor antagonist Gundam. Gundam is a series meant to sell TOYS and Gquarks even failed at that. That's awful. failure on every level.

The only "good" thing about this anime are the fanart about Machu's surprise big boobs and the whorehouse aka meaningless memes.

@lampuiho I don't care about other people, you're the one who answered me. And so I'd like to hear what you personally don't like. You didn't expect that you could just make a counterargument and then expect other people to back it up for you, did you? Especially considering that you dropped the show halfway through and didn't even finish watching it.
