I am still anticipating for the bluray release of Sayonara no Tsubasa, as well as the final episode to Gundam Unicorn amongst other things...

Psst, they are all being released in the fall/winter...

AH... FUCK!

SO, anything think the Gafuran will be piloted by an alien race? Or do you think they'll be sentient machines?

I hope they're aliens, be it from an alien army, or sentient alien machines.

They'd be AWESOME KICK ASS aliens.

That'd be a little predictable, though. But as I said earlier, the unknowns share striking similarities with these guys, even down to their weapons configuration. Funny how that works.

I just like the idea of aliens, I'm an alien junkie. Especially in Gundam.

And he raises a valid point by comparing it to 2003, seeing as how the first Age Gundam strikes that ridiculous pose in space when it catches the rifle and that is definitely SEED-esque. But keep in mind, even though this series is being produced by Sunrise, they're not the company animating it.

Wait, what? Who says Sunrise isn't animating it again?

I agree with that. It's strikingly similar, but just with a lower budget

There is a difference though. Saying it will suck means that you are already passing judgment on something that you haven't even seen, while keeping an open mind means to give the show a chance until it airs at least a single episode before starting with the execution or praising. Thats all whats asked, to just give it a chance. If you want to express some disappointment, you are more than free to do so, but don't make conclusive statements declaring something will suck when you hadn't seen it.

I mean, sure the designs aren't that great (and some are pretty stupid) but then again Unicorn had some pretty ridiculous stuff and it's pretty great series. Give it a chance to show what's it got

Yeah that confused me as well. I thought I didn't read it right either.

I don't know how it will end up once they get going with the episodes and I don't want to judge the visuals and smoothness of the animation from just a trailer but while decent the production values at the moment are looking surprisingly weak for a next main Gundam TV series and blandly colored like what I expect out of kid shows (with a decent darker edge to the night time coloring and all the destruction and detail in the tears during the death crying) after the eye-melting high-budget visuals of 00 and Unicorn raising the bar for future Gundam HD TV, movie and OVA projects.

I don't get why people keep saying this (well actually only 3 people said it) cause it has the same level/quality animation as 00.

Maybe they're comparing it to the 00 movie...

In which case its a pretty unfair comparison...

DangerMouse · 2011-06-13, 19:09

No the 00 TV series animation, not just the movie which wouldn't be fair as you said.

There's no way that trailer had the same animation quality, detail and smoothness of motion as 00's animation at least in my opinion. I don't know if I'd say Age's animation is bad yet though, I'll wait to see more of their work.

Well, comparing it to Unicorn is also unfair too, I'd say.

You're right in terms of (character) details... However, animation-wise I would say they are about equal. What 00 does have that this is lacking is the post-processing, ie, motion blur, bright lights, etc that makes the animation seem much more dynamic than it really is.

I smell a hint of Gear Fighter Dendoh on this Gundam series , i might be wrong

PzIVf3 · 2011-06-13, 20:07

Is that a Beam knife? How could you get close to the enemy in that kind of critical range?

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.
