Mobile Suit Gundam GQuuuuuuuux Anonymous 04/16/2025 (Wed) 06:47:34 No. 5378
Since there was no thread.
What did you think of the new episode?
>>5555 big zam
>>5555 Amazing, especially how they use the old music and sfx, the 79' eyecatch was godly. The artstyle is kinda fucked though, Machu and Nyan are in the GCucks style while Char and all 79' characters except Challia Bull are in drawn in the Origin style. I'm still wondering if Amuro will appear
>>5378 I'm still on the fence with starting this one. Saw a couple of webms - The artsyle is vibrant and colourful, but the CG animation put's me off as the action scenes have no weight to them. Also the mechanical design reminds me of how awful the Rebuilds were.
>>5683 CGI is really well-implemented, Khara knows what they're doing. Give it a shot, you'll like it, especially if you enjoyed things like Diebuster and FLCL.
>>5634 I seriously didn't expect this. Slender and Denim even survived this time.
>>5555 I haven't watched the original so it was a bit hard to follow. Did they just cram a full season into a single episode to get everyone up to speed?
>>5804 Kinda, but they had to. First part mostly followed the actual first episode to a degree, things went faster because Char already knows how to pilot and resolved things quickly. The summary of about a year of war that followed isn't difficult to understand if you watched the original show (which you should, it aged really well).

>>5793 Yeah it has a very Gainaxy feel to it. I guess i have a certain preconception to how a gundam show feels at looks. The red Gundam having the Unit 02 face is also a pet peeve. >>5804 >Did they just cram a full season into a single episode to get everyone up to speed? Haven't seen it, but if it covers the event of of the OG - it's 43 eps. If you wanna get up to speed there are three compilation movies that cover the important parts
Hand-drawn asteroid? Would be cool if it was an original cell.

>>5555 I think the flashback was unnecessary. It's a short series. All the info on the OYW could've been presented with a basic prologue at the begining. Its and AU, so we don't really need the deep lore - Zeon won, feds lost and take it from there. Both Seed and 00 had a pretty basic intro to set up the world and basic premise, so i don't see a reason to stray from the formula, It comes of as a pointless refference.

I don't really like the mechanical design. Feels like i'm watching Neon Genesis Gundamgelion
>Garma is alive and left the military Unfathomably based
>>7506 I just wanna know if /our/guy Norris is ok.
>>5378 I cannot stop thinking about Machu's boobs and irritated face..
>>8198 I'm from 4channel dot org
>>8198 where did most of /a/ migrate to? are they still posting in fucking ghost
>>8321 On /a/ they're all ghostposting in the DBZ thread.
>>8399 Who knows why though
>>5378 I like the premise and all the fanservice towards the OG in ep 2 was nice. But the character designs are all over the place, mecha design is bad, and not a fan of the yuri bait
I think the red girl is sexy
>Ep 1 >Yuruziha steals a Gundam >She is a redhead >Ep 2 >Char steals a Gundam >He loves red Char got reincarnated into Yuruziha.
Hello friends, I reactivated /m/ if you guys want to go over there and post about this or other shows. Looking for board suggestions atm, you can check and post in the sticky. >>>/m/
>>7363 same mecha designer
>>9850 Lost /m/ bro here, thank you!
I've seen the design of the MC and that alone makes me want to check it out, but I haven't watched any Gundam at all. Can I give this series a shot despite being completely ignorant on the universe, or should I just buckle down and watch Gundam from the start? Both are fine by me.
>>5378 Hearing the old sounds and music was nostalgic. I'm still questioning why this needs to be set in an alternate Gundam 0079 timeline instead of being its own thing. I'll keep watching and see what value it brings. >>5634 >I'm still wondering if Amuro will appear With the Furuya Tooru scandal, I wouldn't count on it.
>>5634 Speaking of different eras having different art style, at least GQuacks isn't fucking up as hard as Aquarion MoE lmao

>>10612 Why do I feel like I've seen this post before...

>>10738 Yo went beyond time and saw future posts.
>>5555 Heard they skipped a bunch of good movie scenes. Haven't watched it so any chance that they'll be implemented in a later episode?
Machu is VERY gay

>>13715 >I heard Challia wasn't in the movies He isn't but to be fair in the show he was only in a single episode and barely did anything
Gonna commission some Machu porn. We need more.
Is there going to be something interesting happening, like zeon starting to drop colonies on the defeated earth federation for shit and giggles and to punish everyone who doesn't obey them? Or is it going to be just rock em sock em robots with gundams?
>>5378 is this another yuri gundam?
pls post in /m/ too we need more peoples
>>16452 With this only being 12 episodes it could go anywhere after the movie content(first 3 eps). The underground fightclub could be a red herring for Zabi politics shegangians and cramming Gihren Greed-lite fanservice down your throat. Or, it could literally just be about Clan Battles. This is the only TV Gundam series to have only 12 episodes confirmed so it'll be interesting to see what Sunrise does. This anime can either be Sunrise's shining moment and for the FLCL director or a even bigger trainwreck than something since G-Reco. I'm still really eager to see what Anno has cooked up since 2018 for this and why it took so long vs just making it a OVA. But the staff didn't appear too eager to make a slimmed down Zeonic remake of Zeta since they couldn't figure out a way to include Scirocco (this was included in a pamphlet according to movie-goers), so I'm thinking there's no way they're going for Z/ZZ/CCA territory too much.
I'm so glad based Char hijacked this show from the dykes

this ep was really good as fanservice, but idk if it was good as one of this show's episodes. I'm pretty sure they could have organically exposited all of this in the main narrative
This shit is boring as fck >UC slop
>>17675 The fanservice was probably necessary. Two consecutive Gundam TV series with a female protagonist must be making people antsy.
>>10711 This outro is so fun.
Oh wow talk about a whirlwind of emotions! After the chaos of /a/ going down rewatching EP 2 feels like stepping into a time machine! That flashback episode of Char in his prime hits HARD doesn't it? It’s like reliving our own glory days—back when we were riding high full of ambition and creativity just like the legendary Char Aznable himself! The nostalgia rush is electric! It’s a vivid reminder of how we thrived in the vibrant chaos of the internet sharing memes, ideas, and unfiltered passion! As we watch Char’s rise we can't help but think, “Man, we were unstoppable!” Now, every frame sparkles with memories of a time when we felt invincible. Let's cherish those moments and channel that energy into our own comebacks!

>>10711 > for the grunt suits The grunt suits are fine, especially the guncanon >gundam itself I'm not quite sold on it It just looks too busy to me and the way the torso and legs being elongated an thinned out makes it look weird and spindly - it works for Eva, but here it look like there's no wight to the MS. The face is probably the worst offender though.
>>18692 HAH! Try scraping us for easy content now, dumb jarcuck! On a serious note, some anons were complaining that people were beginning to tailor their replies specifically so that they would end up in these compilations.
>>18692 O-oh...I didn't even think of that...man, that's so sad.
>>18692 JARMAN GRIFT BTFO
>>18692 >it's all just reddit comments now It's over.
>>18855 Chan was already dead when new episode aired.
Does anyone have good quality pics of the design art for the zakus?
>>18692 The nips are missing you in the comments and asking where you are, should definitely go tell him. Maybe it'll make japs actually go here too lol
>>19047 If someone sends a reply that people migrated to 8chan, other anons that went everywhere else might come here too. The same could even probably happen anywhere else besides 8chan.
>>18703 Yeah, that was the case since his DM/Frieren videos at least. Perhaps a little detox will do us good
>char died for your sin WTF
>rewrite history >make zeon the good guys AGAIN WTF with all these zeon wanks ?
>>18703 Kek I can't imagine needing to do that, at least two of my posts gets in every time I'm here. Try being naturally cool and interesting like me I don't know. >>18855 It is a lot less fun and interesting no doubt.
here's some my thoughts >Bright and Mirai got killed by Char >Amuro going to show up at some point >that haro is Amuro's haro >Garma quit zeon to be with his girlfriend
Char is too busy fucking his imouto

>>19318 You wouldn't understand. Plebs like you have no IDEALS.
>>18692 oh no no no what is he gonna do now?
>>18703 During the Medalist episodes my normal comments got it, whilst the spergs got ignored. If you really want to be the the video you have to be unique but also not a tryhard. Bee yourself Unless you are reddit, they just post "I really liked it when [thing that happened], lol" >>18703
>>18703 it was always like that. when he dropped puniru you could clearly see how the quality of the threads changed, it was so obvious. I pretty much stopped participating in jarman threads, it always feels like I'm among a bunch of kids shouting at each other
>>5378 Is she really a big tiddy girl?
>jap translating 4chan threads for youtube views begging anyone to tell him, where we all went because translating reddit threads are boring. Lol.
>>19877 Not surprising. I've tried using Reddit for about a few hours and I felt like I wanted to fucking die.
>>19877 I think I remember that channel, what was the name again? I doubt he is going to get as much content from here or /m/
>>19877 It's funny how you can immediatelly tell what posts are reddit and what are chan without even looking at the label.
>>19877 reddit sucks, no one has fun or expresses real opinions because of the dreaded le downboat.
>>20103 Jarman or 蠱惑の壺DX. He definitely won't be getting as much since all the anons from those threads are spread out everywhere.
I was hyped until the last 5 minutes of the episode when it turned out it wouldn't just be a remake of 0079 but what if Char had the Gundam and skipped to Zeon winning the war
>>20339 anon, we knew that for ages
>>20591 I haven't looked into the show at all and put it on because I saw a screenshot of Char to be honest

>>19318 Zeon were in the right, all the blame should go to the Zabi family
I had no idea what was going in ep2. I mean I got the general idea but a lot of the details went over my head
>>20886 It was an reimagining of Ep1 of the og show.
(7.91 KB 185x138 185-2913974757.jpg)

>>5378 The MC of this show should have been Lalah Sune
>>18703 Yeah. I notice very little accusing the others of being transsexuals or posters telling other posters that they are from primates from Southeast Asia in any thread he covers. At least the viewers noticed that reddit is very boring.

I haven't watched it yet, because I heard thye cut out parts of the movie which never screened in my cuntry. Is that true?
Team Gundam Rocket
Char just lampshades the entire Gundam universe >an unlocked Gundam cockpit, just out in the wild? that sure is sloppy security.
Wait are all the Zabis still alive given Char didn't have an opportunity to assassinate them?
>>18703 >beginning That's been the case for years now. Sometimes there was enough traffic that the tailored posts would be drowned out. But as time went on, traffic on /a/ went down, and the average anon was replaced with career schizos and bots, it got obviously worse and more forced. That's why they started supplementing with Reddit posts as time went on. Still, the more interesting posts and discussions usually made it in anyways, so I always got multiple posts in threads I participated in. Original content tends to reign supreme regardless of how bad it otherwise gets.
>>22908 Probably. Most of the dead Zabi came from opportunities created by Amuro. And He's probably dead in this universe.
>>22947 It kinda sucks this series is only 12 episodes long so we never really get too deep in the weeds into political stuff. I'm afraid it will be all space wizards and quirky characters.

>>19883 I've tried lurking there out of desperation since it can't be as bad as 4channers make it out to be. It really is, the reputation is well earned. They don't communicate like humans. There are too many layers of fakeness for me to handle, I'm not smart enough for it.
>>23317 At least the gundam subreddit isn't a hardline anti piracy subreddit like some of them. Many are literally unusable because you can't discuss shit
>>23317 It actually makes sense now why they are the worst poster on 4chan. They are so fucking repressed that they just purge when they become anonymousm

>>10607 >With the Furuya Tooru scandal, I wouldn't count on it. I think they changed va for every original characters anyway so it's not like Furuya is gonna be in even if Amuro is.
so what year is this set in?

>Fed get nerf so hard with no trillions GM to spams >Zeon still get push all the way to A Baoa Qu and Chat literally had to carry the war man zigger was a fucking lost cause they never had fucking chance in the original timeline
>>24006 I fucking love Zeon, death to feddies.
>>25690 The Gcucks timeline clearly takes after Gihren's Greed. In Gihren's Greed, Ramba Ral can capture the White Base for Zeon if you research Doms fast enough. This disables future White Base/Operation V events and you end up fighting a relatively weaker Federation at Odessa and Solomon. Then you capture Luna II and end the war. It's a little surprising but not unexpected that the overstretched Zeon forces lose Solomon and do an orderly retreat from Odessa with the minerals that M'Quve captured, that was always the plan iirc. Gcucks is just swapping Char for Ramba Ral and leaning more on the psycommu than the feddies taking heavier losses in general. Speaking of the Flanagan Institute, it would be nice if Kuzco Al shows up. It's possible for both Garma and Degwin to survive the war in this timeline. I prefer the Tomino novel timeline though. The way the novel goes is that the OYW is fought only in space so Zeon doesn't spam designs or lose as many MS and the Federation has less combat experience. The Federation takes heavier losses than in the anime during the campaign to A Baoa Qu, then the Solar System effectively wipes out their fleet. Some dumb stuff happens but the remaining Zeon forces at Granada capture Luna II and force the Federation to surrender because Zeon has total orbital dominance (i.e. infinite Operation Britishes) and Luna II is their main manufacturing facility in the novel.
>>23317 >They don't communicate like humans. There are too many layers of fakeness for me to handle, I work with literal children and they can handle being "mean" better than the average Redditor, it's fucking hilarious
