No. The correct Katakana is クシャトリヤ. So that put it as "Ku-Sha-To-Ri-Ya"

But I pronouce it as Sha-tri-ya, omitting the K altogether.

PS :- Since particulary eveyone is in awe of the unit here, I do wonder how many are willing to shell out all 4500 yen Bandai is asking for the kit.

Oops, typo on my part. Makube has it right.

The way I see it, it certainly looks like a better deal than the PG 00. Heck, that thing costs almost as much as a PS3.

I wonder if that's convincing enough for you to stock the kits?

Nah. Will not touch the Kshatriya for retail since the HGUC line had never appealed to those youngsters. Still have problems clearing what's remain for the MG Sinanju despite rave reviews about it.

Will be getting myself one however.

Kshatriya is of Indian origin: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kshatriya

"Kshatriya (Hindi: क्षत्रिय, kṣatriya from Sanskrit: क्षत्र, kṣatra) is one of the four varnas (social orders) in Hinduism. It constitutes the military and ruling order of the traditional Vedic-Hindu social system..."

The K is silent in the pronounciation. Shat-ria.

Ah this trailer is good, an UC Gundam ha? Cool! I like the chara design and the mecha design. The soundtrack was good too.
Ah this chara design remind me a lot of UC series, I love it.

I don't read the novel, I hope it will be a great Gundam with an interesting story.

PS: Oh Saga, you are the one who did Cosmic Era! Good job!

edit: Ok so it will be 6 OAVs... hm... Well I would like a serie but if the graphic quality is good, it's ok!

[bio9205]

Is it going to be HD like 00?

[Albafica]

Oh I saw in Animenewsnetwork the staff of Gundam Unicorn!

The chara designer is the one who did UC Gundam series! Good! The hero ( I think) looks like Camille Bidan... a bit . I hope characters would be engaging...

I don't know Hiroyuki Sawano who's doing the soundtrack, but the music in the trailer was really good.

Don't forget, each episode will be 50 minutes long.

[Albafica]

Yes I saw it in Cosmic-Era forum.

I wanted a serie because I want to watch an episode every week but well, the graphic quality seems good.

No. I just don't think she's that good of a voice actress and thus she doesn't really deserve a role in the OVA, and me and everyone else is tired of listening to you go on and on about her.

His hard on for Chantal Strand is approaching stalker status me thinks.
