Barbatos is awesome. Definitely giving off ancient machine feels. I hope it still retains its identity as more armors and weapons are added to it
Glaze is very Ebikawa, just look at the chest and leg designs

still a bit conflicted on the main staff being the guys who did anohana and toradora...but at least the characters would feel more human i guess...
Barbatos looks great Character designs look pretty good MC doesn't look like an emotional wimp or an emotionless fighting machine. Plot looks typical but that's usual for Gundam the princess looks nice..... who will sooner or later fall for the MC by getting stranded alone with the MC on an Island along with the guy/girl pilot who had been trying to kill them yep, overall it looks good. you have me hyped for this Sunrise!

That kid is ripped as fuck lol. He's a right pintsize but he looks like he can drop 10 grown adults by himself without breaking a sweat. Definitely feeling his design. At lot of people have doubts about the writing duo, but I think they could pull it off.

Actually, the show has it: you can see the characters for "Kidou Senshi" (機動戦士) in the title card on the preview above, which also calls it "Mobile Suit Gundam: Iron-Blooded Orphans". It's only this thread's title that doesn't have it.

So this is the first main Gundam series using actual subtitles instead of simple alphabet or short words. I kinda think that Tekketsu no Orphans is a mouthful, Gundam Tekketsu would haven been better
Notice the main character's baked, there are something protruding. Connection between pilot and the machine? Like Barbatos literally running on blood?

to me the Glaze reminds me of Wing's OZ-06MS Leo down to its yellow 'TV face' sensor, probably also its balanced stats that can be equipped with various types of equipment to suit a certain situation like the Leo's general purpose nature.
