Animation studio Sunrise, in a joint panel with Bandai Namco Pictures at Anime Expo 2015, provided more information about its next project in the Mobile Suit Gundam series. Akane Hagino, a manager in the international sales department of Sunrise, specified that the project will be revealed on July 15 at noon Japan time.


A teaser site (http://www.g-tekketsu.com/) opened on July 3 with a silhouette of the key visual and a countdown clock for the announcement. The press conference will be streamed on the site with simultaneous English interpretation. Footage with highlights of the announcement will later be made available with subtitles in six languages.

The term tekketsu (鉄血) translates to "blood and iron," referring to military might. In world history, Japanese forces in Okinawa during World War II raised a volunteer Blood and Iron Corps composed of male students aged 14-17. One-half of the members in the unit died during the three-month Battle of Okinawa in 1945.

I think they should stop with this series already but I guess since you're caught up, might as well go through it to the end... even if it means adding more sequels

I'll be optimistic about this. If it's something similar to Gundam Build Fighters, then I'd happily welcome it. Although judging on the word, it seems unlikely.

Next G?
The only "G" i've been able to accept in my heart is G Gundam.

Do you realize just how big Gundam is in Japan? It's not just some mecha franchise, it's literally a part of Japanese history and culture, and very important to the people of Japan. It's in its 35th anniversary and is still going strong. It ain't stopping anytime soon.

Sorry. Gundam IS an identity of Japan. Almost, if not similarly, like the shinto shrines, hanamis, bushido are identities of Japan.

I don't have the exact quote but this is what Nissan GTR's chief design officer said in a documentary I have seen a couple of years back on TV:

The GT-R is unique because it is not simply another sports car. It reflects Japanese culture. Upon close inspection, you will realize the squarish looks and the high-tech vents are inspired from Gundam — an identity of Japan.

If you think he said that without any idea what he was talking about, then you really now better than him.

"Gundam plastic models... Gunpla. Building them or fighting them, it all depends on you. Unlike the Mobile Suit Gundam story, we're not in a state of war, and we don't have to put our lives on the line. It's just played for pleasure. But... No, for that very reason... People can be enthralled by Gunpla and Gunpla Battle. Because it's a game, they can take it seriously!"

I'll hope for the best but im not gonna get my hopes up, i kind of have a bad feeling that this might be way more underwhelming than a new series and instead be like a continuation of an older pre established work. Then again as dogshit as G-reco was i wouldnt mind seeing that world expanded upon as long as tomino either gets his head out of his ass and focus on writing instead of making political commentary or someone else entirely makes it. That world had so many interesting ideas and aspects that could be expanded upon but it was all just bottled up and tossed aside without ever getting the focus it deserved, i think it deserves a second chance to actually.....fucking exist outside of shitty exposition

Also that gundam looks super bulky in that picture, got a feeling i wont care for the design

Umm... let me guess, the cockpit will be smashed to bits and we will see two or three limbs floating around, or a deformed head with eyes popped out from the socket, or brain splattered inside the headgear or something instead of the conventional white-out of the cockpit and the suit going purple-pink KA-BOOM! Thanks. But no thanks. Dramatized death scenes are all we ever need. Can do without overly explicit death scenes. =_=

Edit: Oh, 10,000 lines script per episode to explain stuff. Please add that in my assumption.

079 and Zeta? I really don't recall. Please don't tell me the TV versions might have been bloody censored! I will be really pissed with myself if they were. -_-"

Never saw victory so I cannot comment on that.

If it is set in U.C. timeline then i`ll watch it.
If it is set in alternate universe then i hope the writing is decent.

He keeps performing multiple plastic surgeries on those Shingeki No Kyojin characters in a SINGLE chapter.
Yes, I've read up to the latest chapter of Shingeki No Kyojin manga.
Forced myself to read through the kidsketching chapters after the anime's ended. At least from now on, I only have to go through the hell once a month.
Patiently awaiting SNK TV/movie/OVA anime-sequel.
The 2015 SNK live-action movie would probably suck.
