Gundam Build Fighters - Episode 1 Discussion / Poll

[Shinhwa]

Episode 1 freaking ruled LOL

That RX-78-2 Scene rocked XD

Poor Wing Gundam piloted by a bad pilot.... TwT Owned by a Gyan... ;___;

Can't wait for more!!!

I lol'ed how Freedom Gundam got owned easily in that commercial...

[DuelGundam2099]

That "hybrid" is the Gundam Aesculapius from wing g-unit sidestory.

Thanks stagrinder. I might have realized this if I wasn't banned from MAHQ.

Well it was from Dijeh of all suits.... Does that mean that Dijeh will get a kit in the near future?

Anyone else noticed that Turn X is in the case of gundams despite the fact it is not one itself?

[Shinhwa]

Noticed now that Sei's mom is voiced by Mitsuishi Kotono XD

As it should be for this type of a competition. It'll be nice if they show later on who defeated the father and with what gunpla.

Overall, another enjoyable addition to the franchise for me.

I just noticed that on 15:30, where it shows the Gundam Seed Gunpla in Sei's room, instead of drawing it, it looks more like they just copy pasted the official unit artwork looking by the quality.

[Blaat]

That was fun to watch, fun to guess which MS I'm seeing and fun to guess which model Bandai wants to sell more off

I also hope that Mr. Gal isn't going to be the only expy character in this show and please Sunrise don't limit yourself with OYW characters.

[Shinhwa]

Seriously, Ramba Ral appearing was totally out of expectation XD

Was surprised to see this one. I guess it won't be too far off to hope for some Advance of Zeta now, right?

As every other Gundam show, though. At least we have obscure suits in this one. Things that would never appears anywhere outside of the manga/novel.

[Vsin]

HGUC Gyan - 800 Yen

HGAC Wing - 1500 Yen

Scumbag Sazaki, making Sei sell a cheaper product when the store is already doing poorly.

yeah but we talking about beyblade/Yu-Gi-Oh level merchandise driven here.

agree that we will see rare mecha in this anime. cannot wait to see HI-Nu in anime

I guess they want to prove their point that bad pilot + good MS still lose
(looking at Wing Gundam............................................ .....)

Yup, it is brutal. Still, using your model to fight means you already prepare your heart to see it got damaged and ready to fix it like a good modeler could . Technical prowess is everything I guess. That’s kinda like how, in a Tamiya race, the contestants don’t use the most good-looking mini 4WD in their collection. They use the fastest modification in a race even though it looks like shit (so they don't feel too bad when it crashes or broken ).

That's what I like the most from this series. Sunrise/Bandai aren't scared of ridiculing their Gundams by having them defeated by non-Gundams or grunts. After many Gundam-haxxness we got from many other series, this 'winds of change' is refreshing .

[Ushio the Omega]

There are so many matchups I want to see!

Exia with 7 swords vs Wing 0 custom or Turn A vs Zeta or Nu vs Unicorn etc

SO MANY POSSIBILITIES!

[Duo Maxwell]

Not gonna lie, if this thing becomes real, I'd burn all my hard earned money for it.

Better getting 50 Zaku II and practice before going in with your favorite mech, though .

Technically we can do that in Gundam Extreme Vs
Online Battles Mode
(Though you will get a lot of rage messages )

[Skye629]

Job well done, hooked on Episode 1

Great animation
Great music
Gunpla and MS fanservice galore
Good pilots are the driving force

Reiji is probably some sort of genie or something lol

Ramba Ral apparently somehow changed dimensions before he died and bought a MG Gouf, yep nuff said

Dijeh slicing up Freedom! HAHA!

The dad will probably be the final boss or something (that RX-78-2 scene was pure win)

The MC's mom....is way too hot to be running a plamo shop.....maybe she has pro level gunpla battle skills too?

Im in a Gunpla mood now, off to build my giant backlog of kits
