Pretty intense for a 14 minute prologue. It highlights competition with integrity and tbh, I was impressed by what I saw.

Team Avalon takes the victory! Grats. Also a short glimpse of the main characters in this. Going to see if the full TV series will be able to carry this type of action in Spring.

That was a great match. Fun to see a fight that doesn't involve particle magic, although considering the MC for the main series will be using a 00, that won't last long I gues

I want that custom Grimoire bad

Remind me of Danball Senki Wars where students in robot academy control the virtual reality robot from the pod, though in this case it's reduced to just VR head mount.

Setsuna that you bro?

Oh God it is you!

Jokes aside it feels like a promising prologue to a promising series. I hope it lives up to the hype.

Honestly because season 2 felt so detached from season 1 I'm sure season 3 is gonna be like its own thing too

Here's to hoping season 3 will have some season 1 magic. Season 2 was kind of a disappointment compared to S1

Oh man that Red Shoulder Grimoire; it's always been reminiscent of the Scopedog, and now they made it official. That had more AGE and Greco than all of GBF. Hope to see more. Good battle, which has been rare for the Build series. Actually felt like a team battle.
Sieg Zeon!

S1 is actually pretty good though if you don't mind shounen gundam. I liked it so i would say u should give that a try.

S2 on the other hand was like ehhhhh. It's alright but skippable.

That was awesome! I was literally excited for the fight of two characters that I don't even know. It was the same emotion that I felt in the S1 fights!

This serie has a great potential to be at least the same as good as Build Fighters and beyond!

I still don't know why there were animal people and I don't really care, because that was awesome xD The mobile suit roster was phenomenal. So many underrated MS there. They even had that grunt suit from Gundam X!!

If that kid is the main character, I seriously doubt I'll like the series as much as this preview. I'm gonna watch it anyway, though, so I shouldn't complain preemptively.

About the animals that surprised few posters here - those are the avatars chosen by some of the GBN users.
Almost everything in this episode was in the VR world: the battle, the stadium. We see the real world for a few seconds just before the final titles, after the mc logs out.

It might live up to the hype, but not like the first two did imo.

damn that was good xD

imagine though if that was his son or descendant, and that the setting for Build Divers was in Mars

Pretty good Prologue if ya ask me.

Pretty intense for a 14 minute prologue. It highlights competition I was impressed by what I saw. Looking foward to seeing the first episode and hope it aint repetive as Pokemon or Beyblade Metal Fusion series ;p
