Well, here's some logic for you...

This is (apparently) going to be a TV series. And as far as TV series go, those are THE major Gundam works. This show going to be the only thing Gundam-relevant for each and every week for at least a year.

I'm sorry, magazine spinoff mangas don't get read by a majority of people out there. And OVAs get discussed once every six months when a new episode comes out. Check the post and view counts for Unicorn topics compared to 00 ones. NO comparison.

And as such, people are going to want it to fit their vision of Gundam. Because this will TOWER over the MS Igloos and the Unicorns in importance and in mindshare. So yes, you might not like the topic headed towards the direction it has headed in, and you have every right not to, but it is happening no matter what.

And for a guy who has been around for quite a while, I was just surprised that you decided to rant about it now, after so many years.
