As a interesting (?) fact, reconquista means according to Wikipedia:

The Reconquista ("reconquest") is a period of approximately 781 years in the history of the Iberian Peninsula, after the Islamic conquest in 711-718 to the fall of Granada, the last Islamic state on the peninsula, in 1492. It comes before the discovery of the New World, and the period of the Portuguese and Spanish colonial empires which followed.

But I don't think it has any real meaning, Tomino probably just picked the coolest sounding word from the japanese exotic cool words -spreadsheet

But actually on a closer look, "...711-718 to the fall of Granada..."

HMM...

"Gravity no Reconguista", "the reconquest of gravity", that makes sense in the sequel of the UC

Clearly, it refers to Tomino's reconquest of Gundam.

Sorry except for Gainer, i don't like Turn A or Xabungle (so i didn't continue with them). I don't mind Tomino being "Happy" or "Kill them all" mode but i excepted something a bit serious for a change......or a adaptation of the countless side stories.

Understandable, as not everyone can get into those, but "serious for a change"? As opposed to Unicorn, Age, and 00? It's also a little premature to assume it's not 'serious', as judging by the trailer, it could go either way.

(Un)fortunately, side-stories don't get full TV showings.

Unicorn is awesome and it would have been great if it was a whole series. Age messed up in the third arc. There may be a misunderstanding from what i said but i don't dislike stories if they aren't serious. I was just excited about getting something similar to the UC stories but i didn't say it would be bad or not serious. A bad first impression for me but that could easily change depending on the execution.

Thanks Sunrise I can't wait for the new series!

Well, Age was directed by a total novice and had a digimon level animation cast, I personally enjoyed about 40/50 of it's episodes myself but I guess it wasn't edgy enough for some.
This, however, is potentially going to be directed by the founding father of Gundam, Yoshiyuki Tomino.

Don't get your hopes up.

"During the Kidou Senshi Gundam 35th Anniversary Announcement, Gundam creator, Tomino Yushiyuki said that the new Gundam: G no Reconguista is not meant for the UC or Origin fans but for the children. The series was made so that children can enjoy."

This makes for 3 baby Gundam series in a row: Gundam AGE 10, Gundam Toy Fighters, and now Children Century.

I don't see exactly how a lower demographic point makes for a worse show though, it's not as if it would be thematically different in the least, just less graphic.

I mean, not to cross reference an entirely different industry here, but just look at the currently airing Kamen Rider Gaim. What was originally meant to be a show focused mainly for children and adults alike, placed in the hands of Urobuchi became arguably one of the most profound shows in modern eastern television.

MAL is the only place where the news brief seems to argue it's a movie but I am seeing no actual official confirmation of it's format anywhere yet. It's entirely possible it is, but since I'm seeing no actual confirmation I'm not going to make any assumptions on it's format yet. Other people are free to believe what and who they want of course.

It doesn't look like a movie, at least the quality of animation isn't that good, judging from the trailer. Besides, movies are usually annouced much earlier before they are released and this is expected to come in october.

wrong Tomino: No, it is geared towards adults. About adults in a nuclear world.. To view the possible issues dealing with this theme from various aspect, or else it would just be a really awkward gundam.

You got that quote from years ago, when the project wasn't even a Gundam show. It was still in the very early stages of concept etc. If you read the recent interview, he is quoted on saying this will be a children's show.

One may argue that all Gundam is targeted at youth, but the fact that Tomino made a point of saying it will be for children and not for the UC fans makes it clear this is going to be exceptionally baby-fied.

UC Gundam, Turn A, it's all one universe.
If that is what he meant, then it would be rather simplistic to imagine all Gundams as culminating in one universe (outside of those purposefully mentioned in Turn A) - for it was obviously more a thematic and overarching novel device in which Turn A was written as a sort of final paragraph to the whole franchise.

However, the addition of new series afterwards clearly show that there is no intention to creat some kind of "whole continuity". That's also not to mention that Tomino has obviously progressed as a person, and could quite easily take the new Gundam in a different thematic direction.

Nevertheless, my main issue with the previous poster was that to think that new Gundams are made while intending to "explain the events of Turn A" would be quite a step away from reality.
