New Gundam Series Announced

[Xard]

Is Gundam The Origin = Gundam version of Macross The First?

If that's the case

HOOOOOOOOOOOLYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY SHIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIT

Is Gundam The Origin = Gundam version of Macross The First?

Not sure about the analogy, but it is like a remake of the original MS Gundam.

Check http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mobile_Sui ... The_Origin

I have all the manga volumes and despite some dragging in the later sections has been an awesome read.

IMAGE SEARCH FOR THE MANGA

Yup, that seems to be the case

let me reiterate

HOOOOOOOOLYYYYYYYYYY SHIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIT

[InstrumentalityOne]

Awww shit, when will it air?

[symbv]

Just want to say that there is NO MORE INFORMATION about the anime project besides Sunrise being the anime studio

No information about who will be the director or whether the cast of seiyuu will stay the same.

No information about the format (OVA, TV series or movies.... )

No information about the schedule



EDIT: Now I wonder whether they deliberately set the sequence of the announcements -- imagine what happened if they announced Gundam the Origin first and then Gundam Age :)

I dunno, but they did a good job pleasing everyone.


EDIT:
Some Gundam Origin pictures I found:





Also, a terrifying thought just struck my mind.
What if they used CG in Origin?

in that case they better get Satelight to do it


...seriously speaking, what are you thinking if you seriously even consider the possibility of there NOT being any CG in anime this day. Helloooooooo?

[InstrumentalityOne]

I seriously don´t know.
I think I finally just got used to the mecha animation quality of the original gundam and now they´re offering me shiny CG again.
Feels weird, man.

[symbv]

^ Blame the sequence and timing of your watching the anime then... I mean, CG will be part of any mecha action scenes nowadays. The original Gundam I watched it >30 years ago, man~~~~~~!!!!! I need an update, not before time!

Both Zeta New Translation and Unicorn use it very well, there's no reason to worry about CG in UC anime.

[Holy Diver]

FUCK YEAH!

We need some music!

Oh Dear Oh Dear Oh Dear...
When I was searching Gundam video in YouTube....
I found this....

What happened to the characters??
Check them out

The amazing thing the voices are really from the seiyuu of their respective characters 28 years after the end of the original MS Gundam (i.e. 2007) !!!
and the company name is Ji-on


EDIT: I corrected my post -- the voice came from the actual seiyuu but not the actors themselves. Apologies.

[InstrumentalityOne]

That´s a pretty long commerical for a gundam pachinko game.

[Tankred]

Holy shit! Nice one Symbv! I just saw this on /m/ before investigating on here.

[symbv]

^ Thanks! Tankred! Recently I have the time to keep a closer tab on 2ch and various news channels, so I get the news real quick (and report to EGF right away!) :)

I was going to say... I was like "Furuya lost his youthful appearence (Seriously, that man is the Japanese Peter Pan) and Furukawa got younger!

[Shogo-Kun]

Eww... Gundam the Origin looks ugly as sin. Not looking forward to this one.

[Xard]

I'd watch it! It looks adorable! Come on, Bandai! Bring this to the States!

Eww... Gundam the Origin looks ugly as sin. Not looking forward to this one.

[Shogo-Kun]

@Xard: What? I prefer more youthful looking anime over butt ugly anime. AGE looks sleek and full of youth, ORIGIN looks old and worn out. Not to mention that it looks like a crappy 80's cartoon. GIVE ME SOME AGE!

[InstrumentalityOne]

Everyone here was ignoring him until you came, Xard.

I think you just got trolled.
