Other places, not sure.

Definitely not on PSN, yet.
Hm, looks like I'll treat myself to a birthday present then.

Keep in mind that the DVD will be gipped. It will be subs only unlike the BD version.

Only English subtitles? I'm fine with that.

Just watched the first ep with subs, it is amazing. Story so far very intrigued, some cliche but not so bad. Animation and music is top. We will see if there will be cameos of other famous gundam characters, well there were some mention about it...

Anyone catch the ironic symbolism with the two posters they focused on?

"Runaway Princess" and "The Fourth Tragedy"

So why do people fight, anyway?
Perhaps the meaning of existence lies within their will to fight.
People feel a sense of accomplishment through battle.
And it’s also a fact that the ones actually fighting are never perceived as being tainted.

Reference to Audrey Hepburn and her role in the film "Roman Holiday" (the novel even mention Minerva watching that while she was young) and, if I'm not mistaken, Four Murasame repectively.

Well, I was also pointing to the fact that "Runaway Princess" refers to Audrey and that the "Fourth Tragedy" refers to what is about to come...

The first episode was really good. Really loved how things started and everything from animation to music and characters was on a really high level.
The only bad thing about it is that we'll die waiting for the next one to come out. I really hope it will come only after a few months. Either wait it's going to be a really long time before we see it finished. Definitely a great start though and it sure looks like it will be worth the wait.

I have to agree waiting for the next one is painful. First episode was done splendidly. I never got bored and craved for what would happen next. I hope everyone that watches enjoys it as much as i did.

AWESOME!!

A great first episode, I have to say. The animation was beautiful and the plot seamless. I can't wait for the next episode.

And we need a separate thread for the first episode.

I picked up on that one myself. OYW, Gryps/Neo Zeon, Neo Zeon II, and this. And of course we know who the runaway princess is.

I have to say, I wish I was spoiled about who Audrey is. I will never know whether or not I'd figure it on my own. And her identity should be and should have been in spoiler tags.

I personally couldn't take Banagher seriously because of that.

Also, that was just AWESOME. I'll be watching even just for Marida and Kshatriya, that's for sure.

Finally. Another Gundam based on the UC Universe. Loved the first episode. Couple of problems with the male lead, but I can deal with it.

Now the long, long wait...

Well, you need flaws in the main protagonist, he has to grow after all. And since I've seen a lot worse, I'm okay with it. He was just speaking his mind is all.
