I'd like to see the EX-S on there as well, just to see how it stacked up.

Re: G-Saviour - Looking back
Then explain why it was dubbed into Japanese and shown in Japan long before it was released in America. Nothing of what you said in this post or the fans "killing it before it could get off the ground" is accurate. In order to further reiterate Chris' point, the HG box actually comes with...

Re: Official Gundam Games & Upcoming Releases Thread Mk IV
I would love to have split-screen play in the VS series games again, but sadly couch co-op is a dying feature thanks to online gameplay forcing friends to buy at least 2 copies to play with each other. One of the reasons I still play the Gundam Musou games. And I still have my doubts about that leak...

I wonder if they'll include some new info on Frozen Teardrop suits?
Or just maybe... some G-Saviour

Re: G-Saviour - Looking back
Um, G-Saviour was finished in 1999 for the 20th Anniversary of Gundam, but wasn't shown on Japanese TV until 2000. That shows you right there what Banrise themselves thought of the end product. Uh... G-Saviour wasn't made for Japanese audiences in the first place. It was made in Canada with an all ...

Re: G-Saviour - Looking back
G-Saviour had a lot of potential, but fan backlash at anything not up to their imagined ideal of what Gundam is supposed to be (hello AGE, welcome to the club) killed it before it could get off the ground. IIRC, the cast of the movie were all very excited because they thought G-Saviour was going to ...

Re: Katoki and his influence?
Katoki has created some of the most iconic and influential mecha in recent history, from the EW Gundams to the Sentinel series (the very definition of excess), Unicorn, and let's not forget Virtual On. Katoki's style has definitely changed the mecha genre and influenced its artists into a much more ...

With the new gundam seed vita game being announced anyone else interested in that one? I know I am. The region free capabilitys of my psp was my favorite feature and I got almost all of the gundam games. Seed itself isn't interesting to me, and the last couple of Artdink games have been disappointi...

Re: Glory of Losers
Presumably this is just the author patching up the slight plothole of exactly where Treize got the Gundanium he used to make Epyon...on the other hand, it seems to open up ANOTHER plothole: how did OZ learn the procedure for making Gundanium that early? At least later in the series it could be just...

You mean it's going to be a third manga of the same war? Is The Origin even done yet?
I'd love a new entry into the late UC, but another OYW story would just be disappointing.

Everything is about to be derailed with volume 2 :lol: The story is taking a really weird turn, or rather has been, since Sumizawa introduced a new backstory/twist. Uh oh, I'm getting excited. Any dates for your next release? If this story is going to diverge from the anime, then maybe these first ...

Re: Should Katoki Redesign His EW Gundams?
Yeah, the ones in that book are mostly modifications of the old 1997-era High Grades, tho IIRC there were versions of the main four plus Epyon that were made using the Master Grade Wing Zero's inner frame. Since then of course, GotL has inspired Master Grades of Katoki's versions of the Gundams. Pe...

Re: Should Katoki Redesign His EW Gundams?
Deacon: I thought those were just the credits for the show, since Okawara's only contribution to the series was the original Gundams (which of course aren't in this manga). Blacklion: Epyon's pretty popular, actually. I think it's more likely that Bandai had Katoki do Epyon EW for the Master Grade ...

Glory of Losers
Did a thread search and didn't find any topics about it, surprisingly. Has anyone been keeping up with Zeonic's scanlations? I personally like that they're using a lot of the script from the dub, I thought some of the lines were written pretty well. But about the manga: I'm liking the art, but the p...

Re: Should Katoki Redesign His EW Gundams?
The EW Gundams are fine. Katoki designed them to streamline the essence of their original concept. It's not like you can show off all those extra features in a single movie, anyway, right? Besides, you have to remember that most of the Gundams were being shipped off to be disposed of right as the m...

Re: The Official Gundam AGE Anime Thread Mk III
Anime has a real problem with depicting age, because Largan barely looks older than Flit. the numbers are meaningless when a 28 year old looks 15 and a 15 year old looks 8.Homeless wrote:Largan's also 28, so I'm not sure if a 14-year old girl or a 15-year old girl is much of a consolation prize.

Should Katoki Redesign His EW Gundams?
It seems that with each new issue of Glory of Losers, the early-type Gundams are gaining more weapons and options parts, and I feel like it's at the point where they are outperforming and out-gunning their own upgrades. With Sandrock's new Armadillo armor, Heavyarms' insane full weapon loadout, Shen...
