This thread seems to reaffirm something I've always felt. Everyone has a Gundam series they love, and everybody has a Gundam series they hate and usually it's the latest one that causes the most arguments. Makes me wonder if this psyched up attitude for the this new U.C series will dissipate once it actually airs. I also wonder if it can escape getting the workaround.
If ever there were a more schizophrenic group of fans, we the mecha heads are it. |

I wouldn't mind something like what you were expecting, though i've got nothing against a show from 0081. Saying that, we don't even know if this show plans to stay in just one year --- for all we know it could progress straight into Zeta era.

And it's not like a new UC Gundam is time slot suicide compared to stuff like Terra e (which is my fav show to air in that time slot, but it was wrong for it) and Tenpou Ibun Ayakashi Ayashi... I'm pretty damn sure this would easily outrate Code Geass R2..... even if it doesn't pander to the time slot audience as much as Geass, 00 and FMA will. Of course all this discussion is moot if it's an OVA or movie. Last edited by Westlo; 2009-02-25 at 03:51. |

My initial rection:UC again?!HELL YES!
My secondary reaction:OYW again?Damn. All is good as long as it is done well.As long as it delivers UC atmosphere well...still would've prefered something GRYPS Conflict or onward more.OYW is way too overused. |

No matter what, they aren't airing this on the current slot, because it has niche appeal. They already failed to attract the teenage audience they wanted to go for with 00. It won't happen again.

I recommand that you watch the original movie trilogy then. Animation has aged but is still more than watchable and everything else (story, characters...) is still really good.
It'll provide you some good (and important) background for the new show. |

I liked Zeta very much, mainly because Char was there, owning in his Hyaku Shiki :]
I wonder what mobile suits will the protagonists of the new series pilot? After the 8th MS team and fabulous Gouf Custom I expect many brand new beautiful grunt customs
