Please note that the picture doesn't say anything about 0083 being remade as the Gundam 30th anniversary show. The graphic in the corner celebrates Sunrise's thirtieth anniversary, it has an initial release date of 1991, and the picture itself can be found next to a whole bunch of other Sunrise shows. I highly doubt that this is going to be the big special; that will be publicized so much that there won't be the slightest doubt. (And it's almost certain to not be announced until Gundam 00 finishes airing)

I wouldn't be surprised if we see more poster like shots like that one which features another show from the franchise. It's just a way to celebrate the 30th anniversary --- not telling us that 0083 will have something to do with the announcement.

0083 was/is still an excellent show. The plot that "never" bothered to exist, the events that "didnt" transpire and the gundam development project that was "never started"
>>magnificient show. The hero, Uraki, never once wore a titan's uniform, got betrayed by his girlfriend ( though he still ended up with her after the show), and was too physically tired to finish his duel with Gato. >>>I never did heard of him or Nina again, perhaps they were closely watched by the federation like Amuro was in Zeta since Uraki never bothered to show his non~newtype face *slash* abilities in CCA As for Gato, who tried to lead his forces back to axis but were sorrowfully wiped out, he's reputation or his accomplishments, is never heard of again. >>>as for if 0083 will be remade, then it will be good news for me, hope they patch up several plotholes from back then |

Well, one thing about 0083 though, is that the tech used seems to surpass the ones in Zeta Gundam, which seems kinda odd.
But otherwise, it was agreat mini-series. One of the rarer ones where the protagonist ain't the best pilot, and actually has to struggle. |

I liked this show because of the great battle scenes and the atmosphere, but the plot was not of my liking to be honest. The characters, apart from Kou, were two-dimensional (though I really liked Anavel Gato, and I didn't like thje protagonist), which was something I didn't like. The OPs were all great, though, it still happens that I watch them on youtube.

1.) That's no surprise really.
Don't forget that these were all prototypes designed by the Federation that are meant to pretty much surpass anything Zeon had, including Gelgoogs and beyond, though I highly doubt they calculated something as insane as the Neue Ziel showing up which; a MA that makes even the Big Zam look like crap aside from its main mega particle cannon. (Beam spamming power + high speed and maneuverabilty.) Prototypes are (usually) made with the best they can possibly get for their buck, tested, then downgraded into possible mass production forms while hopefully maintaining a decently high level of performace at a lower cost. So the Gundam Development Project Gundams were made for just such a purpose; with 1 general-purpose, and 2 more specific purposes (tactical nuclear warfare and area dominance). 2.) As said, all the data corresponding to the Gundam Development Project was deleted soon after Operation Stardust ended, so aside from things planned for mass production anyways (the panoramic monitor and whatnot), they got rid of anything else that made them so advanced in the first place. 3.) Another reason is also probably because of 0083 coming several years AFTER Zeta was already done and OVAs tend to make suits look stronger/weaker than other series'. I mean, look at 0080 for instance. Normally, a Zaku of any kind, unless piloted by a main character of sorts (in general or for that certain arc) is usually just cannon fodder (though better cannon fodder than Wing, SEED, and SEED Destiny units anyway, lol), but 0080 had it matching a much more ADVANCED Gundam than the normal one. Granted, Christina is merely a normal test pilot and not a Newtype pilot like Amuro (who could fully utilize its potential), but still, the specification differences in the 2 MS should be quite obvious. (Not to mention Bernie himself is usually said to be the weakest pilot of the Cyclops team too.) So similar to there, it was probably to help spice up battles to make them more intense and fun to watch.

While all the data was deleted not all the technology was lost. The I-Field appeared later on as well. The other that I think may have factored in was the funding and freedom that Anaheim had as the Titans rose to power.
And I think 0083 is great how it is. The only thing is the attempt at romance, I didn't feel it was quite there and Kou was too much of a pansy about the whole thing.

The I-Field is actually common technology. Not only is it in every MS/MA reactor, but it also appeared before with the Big Zam (the first MA to utilize it as an anti-beam defense) during the One Year War. It was not exclusive at all to the Dendrobium Orchis. That was only the first time the Federation actually utilized it in the same way, and even then, it was flawed by being external and vulnerable while the Big Zam, Neue Ziel, and other MS/MA to use it after were all internal.

This one. Absolute visual orgasm in every aspect.
The character development wasnt too bad, but its certainly lacking, very much so. Not to mention being painfully cliche. There are some people who can pull of cliches quite well, director of this is not one of those select few. Also, gotta love dropping tons of crap from space on USia, dont see that alot, respect. |

For me, one of the series most memorable "parts" is Anavel Gato. I liked his character (although he's not a complex character), and his mobile suits, too. (his Gundam unit was cool, and I loved the Neue Ziel mobile armor, as well).
