Re: An Infinity of Tomorrows (Gundam/Halo AU)

I like, but how far does Halo get involved? Is it just the tech, or does you-know-who come crashing down out of the atmosphere at some point? Yep, at some point the Covenant (and, maybe, the Master Chief) are going to get involved in this. The history leading up to humanity's first contact with the...

An Infinity of Tomorrows (Gundam/Halo AU)

Author's Note: This began as an effort to create an alternate Gundam 00 timeline where Celestial Being, the Gundams, and the Innovators never existed. This has gone somewhat beyond that, however, and has now become something of a mix of First Gundam, Gundam 00, Gundam SEED, and Halo plus some origi...

Re: The Official Gundam: The Origin Anime Thread Mk I

My personal hope is that Sunrise's plan is to follow Age with Origin, so perhaps we'll start hearing news once Summer rolls around.

@Burke and Chris: Ah, okay, you're both right of course. After watching the Japanese and English trailers too, I'm actually now really itching to watch it anyway. Perhaps this afternoon? ^_^

Re: Burke's First Impressions of Gundam 00!

Well, I decided to go insane and watch the last 14 episodes of 00 S2 last night, so now I'm caught up and can read all of Burke's comments! ^_^ Like Burke, I really loved the end of the TV series - it was really emotional and, IMO, ended on just about the perfect note. It was very much where I wante...

Re: New Godzilla Movie for 2012

Welll I had to stop here sooner or later. First of all, what the heck Warner Bros and Legendary Pictures were thinking in taking on this project. In addition to the well known unpopularity of the Godzilla series in America, these days, the series (if I recall correctly) was not really well liked in...

Re: Burke's First Impressions of Gundam 00!

As I mentioned earlier in the thread, I also haven't seen 00 S2. So, last night I decided to finally hunker down and watch, blazing through the first 11 episodes. I don't intend to steal any of Burke's thunder, but I figure this is as good a place as any to post my own thoughts and try to compare no...

Re: Burke's First Impressions of Gundam 00!

Okay, I'm going to jump in and attempt to back up LightningCount. Again, I've only seen S1, so I can really only comment on that: For me, at least, I understood that the formation of an Earth Federation was where the series was headed. What disappointed me was that they did it so EARLY! The AD world...

Re: Burke's First Impressions of Gundam 00!

Ah, Gundam 00! My opinion is pretty much the same as Lightningcount - I think the first 15 or 16 episodes are BRILLIANT, easily my favorite episodes in the whole Gundam franchise, but stumbled as it Season 1 moved into its third act. I haven't watched Season 2 (been meaning to for years now), but th...

Re: Comic Books (other than manga)

I've gotten back into comics over the last few months thanks to IDW's new Godzilla series. Since I'd like to support my local store, I've been sampling some other stuff that looks interesting. So far, besides the two Godzilla series (Kingdom of Monsters and Gangsters & Goliaths), I've been follo...

Re: New Gundam Series this Fall, announcement in June

I'm excited! Recent Gundam has been hit or miss with me... SEED was Okay, Destiny not so good, 00 S1 my favorite Gundam series ever , and 00 S2 incredibly disappointing. Still, I'm a natural optimist, so I'm going to assume that this coming season - no matter what it is - has the potential to be the...

Re: The Official 00 Mecha Thread Mk XVII

Oh, wow!  That's way more interesting than I expected.  So, if I understand right, the standard pre-GN was:  Electric Battery charged by Wireless Electricity (solar-based) for power, and Hydrogen-fueled Plasma Ion engine for propulsion?  That's cool!  Though, it does seem odd that there's no interm...

Re: The Official 00 Mecha Thread Mk XVII

Hey guys, a simple question: What powers the non-GN spacecraft and mobile suits in 00?  Are they miniature nuclear reactors, some sort of advanced Fuel Cell, or something else? Nuclear technology has been discarded for a very long time in the 00 world so no. Older MS like the Anfs and Fantons used ...

Re: Dedicated to all future Gundam fansite pioneers...

For me, at least, among the biggest reasons I left Gundamwatch/Animemech was 'cause Graybear's administrative style seemed so arbitrary at times, clamping down on things that really didn't need Admin/Mod attention IMO. For example: before he took over, Gundamwatch had a large Roleplaying community. ...

Re: What happened to Hathaway?

He went on to star in Tomino's semi-canonical novel "Hathaway's Flash". You can find a really brief summary HERE (sorry, haven't been able to find better) and you can check out the mecha page HERE. I'm sure somebody around here has read it and can give you a better summary. :)

For the Barrel: Some Questions

I've been fascinated by the vague tidbits about For the Barrel for a decade now. Sadly, beyond the Mecha page here and what was mentioned a couple of topics about from 2007 and 2008 , I know next to nothing about the novel. So, for those who have the scans or have read it, question time! 1. I know F...

Re: Dedicated to all future Gundam fansite pioneers...

@Pegasus: GOUF? Was that the attempt to do multiple forums for different genres under a single banner (Gundamwatch for Gundam, Animemech for mecha anime, and I think something else...)? If so, that was about the point I left the community. ^_^()

Aw, and I miss Gunota too! :(
