>>13522134
Are you saying that the director of Thunderbolt will die/get replaced halfway through?

>>13522052
Those are likely all static/panning shots which always have more detail. I can almost guarantee they'll revert back to two-tone shading when the suits start moving.

Oh, well, it won't cover until A Baoa Qu, I guess.

>>13522144
Unicorn's director was close to quitting before the final episode so I say it's likely. Studio 1 must be an awful place to work.

>>13522199
Their funding isn't coming from the stuff they've already completed; if bandai wanted a movie they could have it.

It's an OVA because it coming out over a longer period of time means that there's a longer period to sell kits

It was too good to be true alright.

they're like 2 years old...

>>13522744
If they werent going to make new kits they'd animate something else like gaia gear or crossbone

Just to clarify a point in the Thunderbolt story, that I'm seeing some people repeating here: In the Thunderbolt universe The One Year War really ended in december 0079 but half of the remaining zeon forces did not stop fighting, going willy nilly around the globe, and because of the deterioration of the Earth Federation power after the war, nationalism and regional separatism is rising on earth

>>13522783
So basically on paper the war ended but the fighting continued?

>>13522077

Nah. people were bitching about how they ruined YAS designs with moeshit.

>>13522796
basically that's it, Federation now is at peace with the new Republic of zeon, but part of whats left of the zeon military won't accept the new government as legit, and so they don't see a reason to accept the surrender treaty. It is what we already had seen in other series, but now with bigger number of remnants still holding ground and some new threats for the federation supremacy. Everything already on 0080.

Not surprising to be honest, no series has really touched on what happened right after the war and it was just assumed that Zeon's main forces disarmed with smaller factions like the Delaz Fleet engaging in guerrilla warfare or opting to retreat from the Earth Sphere like the Axis Fleet did.

Reminds me of how they released Gunpla Builders.

>>13522667
I haven't seen anything from the cartoon in your picture but I dislike it because of you. You fags ruin the shows you want to succeed.

>>13523549
Quite the opposite. There are two protagonists: one (Io, EFSF's Mua Brotherhood) is a lunatic ace hot-shot who lives for fighting and has no qualms with shooting Zeeks in the face with his sidearm. The other one (Darryl, Zeon's Living Dead) is a professional soldier: a former infantry grunt who lost his legs and left arm in combat.

>>13523287
Gundam Legacy and Wraith of Varuna both go into this.

>>13523549
He's not, Feddie MC know that liking war is wrong but he can't help but enjoy himself in battle, Zeon MC is willing to do anything to protect his friends and nation.

>>13523580
>Io, EFSF's Mua Brotherhood is a lunatic ace hot-shot who lives for fighting and has no qualms with shooting Zeeks in the face with his sidearm

I like his edge.

Is it weird to like the zeon characters more? Most of them seem really likable and downright heroic compare to Io.

>>13523600
I think that's the idea. Io is the complete antithesis to the usual EF Gundam protagonist. And you know what the best part is? It doesn't fall for the trap of Zeonwank "MUH IDEALS" shit.

I read it up to book four now and geeze, this shit's got very little substance. It's basically just a wild ride and watching this shit's going to take about twenty times as long as reading it.

So count me out.

>>13523628
It will take 72 minutes

>>13523628
>twenty times as long as reading it
It'll be less than an hour and twenty minutes, so more like F91, Stargazer or G-Reco pacing.

The "hatched" outlines in G-reco were just a shitty photoshop filter added in during post-processing. Sounds like a shortcut to me.

>>13524475
>People with good taste did.
ftfy

>Sounds like a shortcut to me.
It was done to add an old-school style of animation. They had no need to do so, and neither did they planned to use cel animation in these days, so it isn't a shortcut.

>>13522180
>Why not just have it be one movie?

There most likely will be a movie version, just like Endless Waltz and even 0083 got a movie version. They will do it to help get the model kits collecting dust off the shelves.

To be more accurate:

Mecha Animation Director: Seiichi Nakatani & Morifumi Naka (both alumni of many Sunrise mecha anime, not just Gundam.)
Character Animation Director: Hirotoshi Takaya, Same as above, found his roots in Sunrise Yuusha robot shows when he started, he single-handedly animated the amazing scenes where Unicorn fought with Neo Zeong in episode 7 of Unicorn.

Kou Matsuo generally has a good eye for Gundam battle sequences. He directed Gundam Senki OVA/cutscenes as well as the original Gunpla builders OVA.

>>13523179
Well, I really wouldn't say "sameface" as I can still tell apart his Banagher from his Audrey (and most of the novel's other designs are for the most part varied), but yeah I can kinda agree that Unicorn wasn't really Yasuhiko's best in terms of design work. Then again he really didn't like working on the novels either so I suspect that may have played a part.

To bad the only one that goes into 'ideals' hard was 0083, and that was still a massive Feddie Wank because you got a to a Feddie Greenhorn go toe to toe with one of the best old type pilots in UC and have everything be a draw. Also all the lead Feddies survived minus one who died for the plot.

The ONLY show that focuses on Zeon's side over the Federation was MS IGLOO, and that's more of a focus on them seeing the war go worse and worse but still carrying out their duty because of their loyalty to their country.

>>13523600
People seem to think the Living Dead Division is some cruel program by Zeon to force cripples to fight. In actuality, it's giving pilots who would normally be taken out of the war and be forced to rot somewhere due to their injuries a second chance. And even today, if you give a solider who had a limb amputated after a battle the option to go back onto the battlefield if they're given a prosthetic that makes them combat effective again, they're going to use it because they don't want to abandon their comrades. The Living Dead division is fighting the good fight for each other, rather than for king and country. Meanwhile the Mue Brotherhood is motivated strictly on taking back a ruined colony and politics within the Federation.


Here's a nice little touch. The South Seas Alliance recovered the body of that one Guncannon pilot that was disabled and then shot up by the Gattle who supported Darryl and the rest of the Living Dead Division. Did they ever say what happened to him?

>and that was still a massive Feddie Wank because you got a to a Feddie Greenhorn go toe to toe with one of the best old type pilots in UC and have everything be a draw
Gato was using a glorified howitzer to face against a super-spec'd multirole Gundam. And later the Dendrobium appears.

The whole point of "ideals", tripfag, is the way the stories portray the morality of the characters. The trademark of 0083, Igloo and Unicorn is having the audience rooting for Zeon for "noble" reasons. They will lose, yes, but that's not important, as long as they stay true to their beliefs.

When shows and manga pander to this crap; that's when we find Zeonwank. Focusing on Zeon in and on itself (ie. 0080, The Origin, Thunderbolt, CDA) is NOT Zeonwank. Got that?

>>13526993

There's a slight element of that in Thunderbolt, though.

I do find it vaguely annoying that the Feddie protagonist never seems to catch a break. Like, Daryl's situation is immeasurably worse, but he seems entirely at peace with himself and is surrounded by his blood-brothers; Io's own family is lining up to stab him in the back, and no-one particularly seems to *like* him. (Also, most of the Federation people we've seen are greedy Jews.)

It's like...Daryl's love interest is a very wholesome woman. Io's love interest loathes him, and she exhibits 'weak' qualities in her behavior, like drug abuse. Later, the Mua Brotherhood is depicted as vaguely sinister even though they have a better claim than the Zeeks: The titular Thunderbolt Sector is their home. The Zeeks are invaders.

Hell, even after the first arc, Io isn't doing too hot in the postwar era. He's still death-obsessed, despite having restored the family fortune, the family name, and become a hero in the process. I'd be happily resting on my laurels, at that point: Instead, he's known as 'The Guy Who Lost the Gundam'.

>>13527020
Shit sounds like I should read it

>>13527020
> Later, the Mua Brotherhood is depicted as vaguely sinister

They pretty much were an association of colony founders who used the leverage their fortune afforded them to get their hands on Gundams and warships they could use in their private war. Mainly so that their claim over the site their former colony cluster sat in would not be lost, apparently.
Meanwhile the other side were throwaway Second Country Zeek cripples in a de-funded project that was using old war materiel to make travel through one sector of space too dangerous for large-scale ops. They chopped their limbs off to survive.

>>13527081

Yeah, but they're taking back their home. If I lost my home country, I would fight like a demon to take it back. They're pouring their country's wealth (and their youngest children, don't forget the kid pilots) to take back their homeland.

It's interesting to note that this is a plot point in the Front Mission manga, which dealt with heavily-cyborged soldiers in the final arc. Though in that case, the implants were mostly to allow you to remotely control machinery (i.e. brain implants) not limb implants.

>>13527020
>I do find it vaguely annoying that the Feddie protagonist never seems to catch a break.
>Io's own family is lining up to stab him in the back, and no-one particularly seems to *like* him.
To be honest, it's not like Io cares in the slightest on the shit that the plot hangs on him, or even the plot making an effort to make him sympathetic. He's this arrogant ace pilot that kills in cold blood. I wouldn't outright call him a psychopath, but "sociopath" fits him: his only purpose in life is to pilot and kill enemies.

>>13527090

>>13526993
So if the show doesn't portray Zeon as cold blooded baby killers and as actual humans, it's a Zeonwank. Got it.

>>13527107

It's a recurring theme in his works. There's a bit of that in Moonlight Mile, too. But personally, I can't help but like Io a lot more: Daryl's story feels like it's occasionally trying too hard. (And he technically lost the duel, I might add.)

Zeon are supposed to be the bad guys. But even bad guys need a bit of complexity.
A work can be focused on Zeon WITHOUT it being Zeonwank. That's something that people here fail to understand repeatedly.

And, as far as I can tell, there is zero "feddiewank" anywhere. Sure, they might've won the war, but the day-to-day still portrays MASSIVE losses of personnel and GMs to Zeon. That's a constant.

So anything that displays Zeon's citizens in a sympathetic light is a 'Zeonwank' to you. Way to miss one of the major points of Gundam being butthurt that they aren't portrayed as genocidal psychos. Unicorn was horrible at portraying Zeon positively, it just made the Feddies look more corrupt and incompetent than normal. MS IGLOO actually made Zeon look bad overall as you, along with the 603rd watched the Zeon war effort unraveled and they fielded anything that didn't explode at launch. And 0083 was the last hurrah for the survivors of the One Year War who opted to stay in the Earth sphere with the plan being to delay and disrupt the Federation's growth until the next group was willing to take the mantle for independence. Fighting the good fight does not mean it's a wank. Double so when they all get wiped out in the process because that clearly shows the writers weren't on Zeon's side.

Where does this twisting of words come from? Of course it fucking isn't, asswipe. And what do you define as "sympathetic"? In my book, the best example is still Bernard Wiseman.

>until the next group was willing to take the mantle for independence. Fighting the good fight does not mean it's a wank
And here's where you are utterly wrong. The FACTS on the ground, the actions taken during the period that the movement lasted, prove that Zeon is not fighting for independence of spacenoids. Each and every incarnation of From the Principality, the various remnants, to the 4 Neo Zeon movements, Zeon has shown itself to be a self-destructive cult that only wants to inflict the greatest damage on the Earth Federation, regardless of costs to them, or any consequences upon civilians. From Gihren Zabi up until Full Frontal, any politics they might spew are a charade to justify their thirst for blood.

>Double so when they all get wiped out in the process because that clearly shows the writers weren't on Zeon's side.
Wrong. That a group of characters survive doesn't mean that the writing supports them. Remember this whole philosophy of fighting for your ideals and doing the ultimate sacrifice for them. Gato is the ultimate incarnation of that.

I've seen the PV from the Gunpla EXPO World Tour Japan 2015. It looks great so far, they don't use 3D on the mobile suits.

I'm only looking at your words and coming to the common sense answer that the moment there's a show that doesn't have at least half the Zeonic personal depicted as self-serving sociopaths, it's a 'Zeonwank to you' Bernad Wiseman is the average Zeon solider, fighting the good fight and trying to do what he can to survive and do the right thing.

>Mum Zabis and leadership
That's the leadership, the rank and file soldiers aren't fighting for the Zabis themselves, but for the spacenoid indepedents or the ideals of Zeon Zum Daikum. You have this glorious hindsight 20:20 vision to condemn everyone who served in Zeon because the leadership was self serving and the moment a show focuses on those who are doing what they can to survive and serve their country, it's a wank. Also the fact that Zeon kept coming back (Even though Neo Zeon and Sleeves are non canon.) They're doing it for the ideas of spacenoid independence from the Federation, not because they think the Zabis should be reinstalled. Hell Full Frontal was working on full economic independence and autonomy from the Federation, which would have ruined the Federation. And before someone brings up the Greater East Asia Co-Prosperity Sphere, that was because it was done for the benefit of the Japanese, not everyone apart of it. Which is what the Federation always is.

>Remember this whole philosophy of fighting for your ideals and doing the ultimate sacrifice for them.
