Yukikaze_01 said: New Gundam series? Hell yeah! Yes! Great news! More Gundam to people! |
 |
| Gridman's CG director? Excellent, that means some good, quick-but-weighty machines. I can see this turning out well. |
| Well I for one already loved Lain. |
TheMechaManiac said: Well well, Okouchi the head writer? He worked under Tomino on Turn A Gundam and Overman King Gainer so he's either channeling that Tomino energy or the trainwreck energy, and I hope it's the former for once. Hopefully not the latter, this is Gundam, not some unique mecha like King Gainer, Gundam and trainwrecks don't mix well. |
 |
| I have high expectations for this. |

VanishingKira said: 1 hour of dropping info on their twitter and no new PV arghh damn maybe production schedule is tight |
| I had hopes it Okouchi would be the writer when Sunrise revealed the protagonist looking a little like Akira from Valvrave. Didn't think it would come true lol Guess this explains why Code Geass Dakkan no Z is being written by the Kyoukai Senki writer. Okouchi is back to writing Gundam. |
 Novels I have read/am reading pending approval: since November 10 2022 |
| It certainly seems interesting. We'll have to wait and see, I guess. |
 |
| Staffing looks very solid. Excited to see a new AU Gundam. Watching IBO as it came out was a lot of fun. |
| Hisone to maso-tan is a very underrated anime so its cool to see its director get that high a profile work, the code geass guy is a mixed bag for me but his hits are really good, infinite ryvius is a gem. |
Immahnoob said: Jizzy, I know you have no idea how to argue for shit, tokiyashiro said: Jizzy as you would call yourself because youre a dick The most butthurt award goes to you And clearly you havent watched that many shows thats why you cant determine if a show is unique or not Or maybe you're just a child who likes common stuffs where hero saves the day and guys gets all the girls. Sad taste you have there kid you came up to me in the first place making you look more like a kid who got slapped without me even knowing it and start crying about it to me |
VanishingKira said: I'm disappointed that we don't have a new PV as well1 hour of dropping info on their twitter and no new PV arghh |
| Oh dear, I am looking forward to this, hopefully this will be as interesting as Gundam 00 or Iron Blooded Orphans ^.^ |

| I'm quite cautious about the writer. The guy did some good stuff. But he also did Valvrave and Code Geass R2. |
~ May all the beauty be blessed ~ |
| Been a while since a legit Gundam AU. Hopefully turns out well. Should at least be entertaining (trainwreck) if nothing else because of Okouchi. deg said: VanishingKira said: 1 hour of dropping info on their twitter and no new PV arghh damn maybe production schedule is tight Tokoya said: VanishingKira said: I'm disappointed that we don't have a new PV as well1 hour of dropping info on their twitter and no new PV arghh They probably want the prologue episode that will come out in few weeks to be the first released footage to the public. |
TheMechaManiac said: Everything over the mess that were Okada and Nagai on IBO, but I'm not a big fan of this either. IBO was everything I could have wanted from a mecha anime. Do you know of anything similar I could watch? |
| その目だれの目？ |
| Ookouchi has kind of a negative reputation due to code geass but having watched a lot of his shit I think he's decent writer. |

TheMechaManiac said: If you like the "nit and grit" and are okay with old animation, then Ryousuke Takahashi is for you. His entire opus is really interesting and covers all kinds of settings while maintaining a level of sobriety few other mecha directors have. Thank you. I realize I have yet to try anything he created. I will look into fixing that after I clear up some of my current backlog. |

| @DatRandomDude the English website has the readings for the staff members' names which may turn up different if translated directly from the Kanji. For example, the concept art is by Lin Junbun and "Kou Inaba" should be "Wataru Inata" |
