^Perhaps that might be better of done with Kio rather than Asem. Because Flit for the moment is only reviving the Gundam tradition in the family so maybe a one-off won't be dramatic enough. But if it was done after two, I say the generational cutoff risk factor that your suggesting might be higher and of course the counter effect on when Kio does come back would be all the more sweeter.

Speaking of Gundam, I really hope the series would eventually expand more on the Gundam backstory from the past. All we have now is that short painting scene but that Gundam was probably used at some point in wars, and for the Asuno familiy to be one of the family's who own Gundam data must be quite significant by itself. I think the past would be more interesting if it somehow even remotely related to the UE threat presence (the details of such a suggestion would of course be complicated and if adopted, I'll really have to just leave it to the writers to come up with it) rather than it being some random powerful war machine; not that such is a totally bad idea either.

Of course, they might not end up explain it at all since the focus might be on the Gundam on the current generation gap rather than the ancient past one, but I thought it still would be a cool story element to expand.

That's sound good as well.

I hope AGE will portray the conflicting viewpoints for the protagonists well, if they go that route with the show. I am currently pretty excited with the idea of three generations of protagonist. There is soooo much potential, and I just hope they will make the best of it.

@ SonicSP: Maybe they gonna elobarate on the Gundam of the past in side storys like they did with 00. I would actually prefer that, because that could expand the world more than the anime could do with its limited screentime.

I don't see why they wouldn't be able to take some of it and apply it to their own models.
I was thinking that replicating and deploying the AGE system would take too much time, maybe in the next generation. But in the mean time, just to survive the attacks, using the improved armour and beam weaponry that the Gundam AGE has would be a better solution. Just looking at the current Gundam AGE makes it looks like, it is possible to adjust the Genoace plants to create mass production Gundam units, that can at least survive a couple of shots before going boom.

The Genoace (Largan's) shield actually blocked a couple of rounds from the Gafran hand cannons. AGE-1 can atleast share some mobility technology. The Gafrans ran circles around them. Wolf showing the Genoace's true capabilities would be a sight to see.

Jesus the white G version looks awesome additionally the green version must be the main mass production.

Now we got a masked guy Char.

Masked and hooded(?). The first hooded Char character AFAIK. If that's really a Char character, then Age will probably get factions too later, unless he or she takes on a role like Turn-A's Harry Ord.

But really, neon green color scheme for a mass production suit? That's like "shoot me" in a battlefield.

Is that mask character with the hoodie a woman?
Those grasshopper suits reminds me of the computer rendered version of the RGM series, close to Gundam class but not quite.

Look at the right side of the second pic, right next to the white G-Exes.

Concerning the Genoace's mobility, given the placement of all the thrusters on its body, it's likely designed for zero-gravity maneuverability and can't operate in the air in environments with gravity... like the inside of a colony. Similar to how in SEED, the Gundams and the GINNs were unable to maintain sustained flight inside Heliopolis and on Earth.

No, when it finally gets a kill, it might be as successful as the Ball--after all, we know a Ball can take down a mobile suit.

Curious to find out who these characters are. That red haired girl appears in the opening and of course we'll be meeting the other girl from the opening (Who I think is named Erin or Yurin Lucille and is supposed to actually be 15) next episode if the preview is any indication.

Well I'm liking that at least one Genoace has some heavey weaponary and I always love it when they go with the dual gatling gun with built in shield for a weapon.
