I don't think it will even be the future of G-Witch, since the war/political drama part already started.
Not in the iyashikei/CGDCT style at least, not that there will not be other cute girls protagonist, that's a possibility since it seems it's doing good commercialy

I wouldn’t mind even if the girls looked like Shrek so long as the story is good, and G_Witch has been amazing so far. If it continues to sell then Sunrise always will follow the trend. In the end, people can act pretentious and entitled about what Gundam should be, but something has to keep the lights at the studio on, and if cute girls doing mecha are selling, where’s the issue?

Don't worry dude, the people claiming "this isn't real Gundam" either aren't actual fans of the franchise or are hypocritical as fuck. Literally the first "Alternative Universe series" Gundam had was G Gundam, that is 100% the  more diverse Gundam (literally a mecha martial arts tournament, dumb and funny as fuck) from the classic Gundam formula, also we had ZZ Gundam that for the first half was ridicolous and sort of "moe" as well. If you go take a look on most Gundam communities even peoplee disliking the series are criticizing it for entirely different reasons, then you sometimes have the fake fan pretending to love the franchise going all "hurr durr they making it woke, hurr durr there's girls eww" that inevitably gets dragged by the others

Nope, but Ecole Du Ciel could get an anime as a result though.

Thanks person with lterally no other Gundam series besides this and IBO in his anime list for confirming my point
P.S. I'm literally not even liking this show, i found the plot-twist of the last episode idiotic, Ichiro Okouchi is probably the most overrated writer in the industry. The difference is i have actual reasons to criticize it
P.P.S. Btw wtf is this "fetish" even supposed to be? Heterosexuality?

I see, i'm sure CC ass shots in Code Geass all had a very deep meaning behind them (i know it's hard to read when you're functionally illiterate, but have you even tried to read what i wrote in my comment? It's a rethorical question, no need to answer it)

Yes, I honestly think it is just anime elitists that try to tear down the reputation of literally anything that isn’t their sacred favs. FMA community is most known for this but there are others, but G_Witch is huge in Japan so they failed to minimize the popularity of it. MAL is a minority in Japan, it’s literally just the west that obsess over it. Things like Uma Musume are giant in Japan but have small community on here, as an example.

If I recall correctly, there are only 3 Gundam manga/LN that has a female protagonist. Majority of them are male. A UC LN written in 1980s. A Wing side story. A UC manga with girl burnt alive. I might be wrong though, might need clarification.

The biggest Gundam manga that has not been adapted yet is Crossbone. The 3 pilots of Crossbone Gundam are all male. In the sequel Skull Heart, all male too. In the following sequel Steel 7, there is a female pilot, the rest are male. I am still reading Crossbone Ghost.

Another Gundam LN that is currently having its adaptation is Hathaway Flash, with the protagonist being Hathaway Noa, son of Bright Noa. I have not read the novel but I doubt Gigi will pilot of mobile suit.

Cute girls are not important for a Gundam war story.
The only mecha anime that requires cute girls are Macross and Muv-Luv.

G Gundam is the short form for Mobile Fighter: G Gundam. It is Gundam but more Dragonball-style, such as Gundam going super-mode, similar to super saiyan. However, it still contains the philosophical messages of Gundam.

G-Witch is the short form of Mobile Suit Gundam: The Witch From Mercury.

The Gundam community tends to throw these types of terminologies around because names can be long, such as G-Reco for Reconguista-In-G.
