I just tuned into the English stream now and heard this line which sounded kind of funny.

... a variety of characters like girls that fall in love with the main hero ...

The character designs aren't what I expected but I'm interested.

Did they show a trailer at all?

 

[yami4ct]

Hmm, so there are several Gundams held by other factions.

It sort of sounds like Gundams are commander units for battalions or something I guess. I like series that don't make Gundams super unique.

 

[Hagi]

Yup buying those HG for my birthday

 

[Divvy]

I am seriously digging the grunt suit designs.

 

[Dresden]

okada-sama \o/

 

[fertygo]

Better Okada than Yoshino

 

[lonely]

This got a MG before G-Self.

You just missed it.

 

[Sandfox]

Based on what we've seen so far this series will probably be fairly popular, though the mecha market is a lot different than it was even a few years back.

 

[shadyspace]

You know, regardless of quality, I bet this one will actually be comprehensible.

 

[fertygo]

We don't have director announcement? Lame..

 

[yami4ct]

HGs will have swapable parts. The build fighters upgrade part style system will also be used. Sounds cool.

A non-MG 1/100 kit with a full inner frame? Sounds like a good cheap gimmick line.

Yeah, they're obviously more powerful but there's a number of them. Sounds like it'll be a manner of improving the Gundam for each faction perhaps. It'd be interesting to see one side continuously improving theirs go up against one that perhaps hasn't been keeping up as much.

 

[MetroidPrimeRib]

Welp, guess I'm watching a Mari Okada show finally

 

[Divvy]

This got a MG before G-Self.

I think that was a nograde 1/100 not MG

 

[Envelope]

spoken like someone who hasn't watched an okada original before!

 

[Wubby]

lolololololololol this getting done in 1/100 before G-Self.

 

[RangerBAD]

Okada did some shows after EVOL that I liked at least.

 

[darkhunger]

Tatsuyuki Nagai is director.

We Still Don't Know The Name of the Gundam We Saw That Day




So much for those Taniguchi rumors!

 

[Hagi]

NX before Robot Spirits? lol

 

[Toxi]

I like how the Barbados Gundam has a giant mace as its signature weapon. No elegant beam swords or rifles or butterfly wings, just pure smash.

 

[yami4ct]

This got a MG before G-Self.

There's a new 1/100 gimmick line, not a MG line. First time we've seen that in a while.

 

[Divvy]

I haven't watched anything Okada wrote, what's wrong with her?

 

[Dresden]

Tatsuyuki Nagai is director.

the gundam we saw that day???

 

[fertygo]

Tatsuyuki Nagai is director.

Oh shit, I likey.

 

[VanillaCakeIsBurning]

You just missed it.

Damn.

I guess someone will upload it soon probably.

lighting the Branduil signal

 

[Voror]

The only thing I've seen from the director is Toradora, though with Okada I've seen a number of works she's done both good and not so good.

 

[Wubby]

I think that was a nograde 1/100 not MG

Yeah they didn't mention the grade but it has a frame unlike RE kits... Wonder if they will create a new grade for this? Kind of reminded me of Frame Arms.

 

[RangerBAD]

Slice of Life Gundam.

 

[shadyspace]

Only time I've heard her name was from the New Kyoto Arc of Rurouni Kenshin.

 

[yami4ct]

lolololololololol this getting done in 1/100 before G-Self.

I get the feeling Bandai quickly saw G-Reco was going to be a merchandising flop and just committed those resources to Iron Blooded Orphans.

 

[Sandfox]

Now I need an episode count.

This will be the most interesting Gundam series in a while.

 

[Jarmel]

You have enough time between now and October to watch Black Rock Shooter!

 

[wonzo]

we'll never forget the rg exia leg duckroll broke that day

 

[duckroll]

Now I need an episode count.

It's airing on the Sunday 5pm slot on TBS/MBS. It will either be 50 eps straight, or 25/25 split like Gundam 00.

 

[Maximilian Kolbe]

Also don't forget True Tears lol.

 

[ponpo]

Samus Gundam

 

[Voror]

I think I want that Art of Gundam book.

 

[MetroidPrimeRib]

The only Okada show I watched was a few episodes of M3 and that was shitty what am I in for and where is Branduil to tell me?

 

[fertygo]

It's airing on the Sunday 5pm slot on TBS/MBS. It will either be 50 eps straight, or 25/25 split like Gundam 00.

Haikyuu got hijacked from the slot ?

 

[Risette]

first lupin, now gundam. okada going to gun for every classic franchise until they're all tarnished.

 

[yami4ct]

I've never seen anything Okada has written. I have no clue if I should be nervous or not.

 

[duckroll]

Haikyuu got hijacked from the slot ?

Haikyuu S2 is late night now.

That's what I was thinking.

 

[ThatChairMan]

Like many writers, her works range from good, average, and bad. People like to focus only on the bad stuff for some reason.

 

[hosannainexcelsis]

We knew a while back that Haikyuu S2 was airing late night.

Gundam tarnished itself quite enough; it doesn't need Okada's help with that!

 

[MMarston]

The only Okada written shows I've ever watched were DT Eightron, Crush Gear, and a bit of Fate/Stay Night and all of those were more or less a decade ago.

I do remember liking Eightron that's for sure.
