Will they explain Full Frontal's past? That was one of the biggest holes in the OVA.

wow HOLY SHIT
WHY ARE BANDAI SHILLING THIS SHITTY SHOW
NO ONE LIKES IT ANYWHERE
IT RETCONNED LITERALLY ALL OF U.C!
WHY ARE THEY TRYING TO KILL OFF U.C. BY SHOVING MORE LITERAL SHIT DOWN OUR THROAT BY GIVING US MORE UNICORN

WHY COULDN'T WE GET SOME TOTALLY EPIC LIKE PIRATE GUNDAMS IN SPACE!!?!!?

No, that's Unicorn. Crossbone is actually decently written, has a better cast, has a better answer to the whole Newtype thing, and isn't specifically designed to be Zeon apologist claptrap.

Remember when Build Fighters made Sunrise and Bandai bankrupt because its model kits and the show itself both performed worse than AGE, which made Sunrise and Bandai both bankrupt?

>>13901118
Given that, one has to wonder how Thunderbolt is doing. Customers are flocking to it by now.

I suspect a third Build Fighters season. People are saying this is airing at 7 AM in the morning.

I really don't see how anybody could get upset over this.

Is this a 13 episode series or 26?

Or did they not reveal that yet

Please validate my opinions by agreeing with me, /m/. Anyone who disagrees with me should fuck off and don't belong here.

Nothing on that has been revealed.

But can we talk about the fact that this is airing at fucking 7 in the morning before, of all things, Sentai?

Either they're adding a lot more material in or they're padding it out, because I'm pretty sure Unicorn as it stands could only really fill something like 15 episodes. New content - even if it is for Unicorn - is better than nothing.

>>13902417
>>13902409
That's what I'd really like to see. Something like Cosmo Babylon or Mafti slowly getting rolled into motion in the final episode would be the coolest shit.

>>13902744
Unicorn consists of six 60 minute long episodes, with the final seventh episode being 90 minutes long. That's 450 minutes of runtime. Assuming each episode is 20 minutes long, that's about 22 and a half episodes of runtime worth, minimum.

At least you went with 'decently' over well written.
That would have been quite the stretch.

>>13900838
So it will be an OVA with new lower quality footage, right?

>>13902808

It's possible to do that well. Remember A New Translation? I hardly ever noticed the difference

Unicorny is overrated because it happens to be the first UC show animated with "decent" effort and budget, nobody can sit here and say they loved the story considering it was so poorly written.

The story is massively changed from the novel and for the most part has no lasting impact on the universal century as a whole, which is actually a good thing because, despite how pretentious it turns out to be, doesnt retcon anything in the end.

Honestly, It's nothing more than a cash-in used to pump out more money using old 0079 and zeta suits and making another Not-Zeon for convenience sake. Instead of making an original rebel group like crossbone vanguard or the jupiter empire they just go with another zeon clone because theyre lazy. Most of the suits could have been more or less original like the Loto, but instead we get more Not-Zakus.

I honestly believe if sunrise had taken the risk to try and take their rights to gundam sentinel they could possibly recieve a lot of praise from fans and the industry alike. I would also like an OVA about the F-90 development and a series about Crossbone, so long as Yuichi Hasegawa is not involved in any way whatsoever with its development.

>>13902837
>Unicorny is overrated because it happens to be the first UC show animated with "decent" effort and budget
it's like you forgot CCA, F91, and 0083 which for their time were high budget and well animated. People still uphold them for well animated scenes.

>despite how pretentious it turns out to be, doesnt retcon anything in the end.
Meh, the same could be said for 0083.

>Honestly, It's nothing more than a cash-in used to pump out more money using old 0079 and zeta suits and making another Not-Zeon for convenience sake. Instead of making an original rebel group like crossbone vanguard or the jupiter empire they just go with another zeon clone because theyre lazy.
You say that like Zanscare isn't just another Zeon by a different name. It's already kind of BS that we have colonies rising up so easily with enough army strength to take on the EFF out of fucking nowhere, and you want them to invent another one out of the asshole?

>Most of the suits could have been more or less original like the Loto, but instead we get more Not-Zakus.
Because they sell well. AU Gundam series have trouble selling their less Zaku-expy grunts.

>I honestly believe if sunrise had taken the risk to try and take their rights to gundam sentinel they could possibly recieve a lot of praise from fans and the industry alike.
Is Sentinel really have that popular? It's not exactly that well known, and the stories weren't reprinted since the late 80s?

>I would also like an OVA about the F-90 development and a series about Crossbone, so long as Yuichi Hasegawa is not involved in any way whatsoever with its development.
That's silly. F90 is even more niche than Sentinel seeing as it was only ever an early 90s short manga and was prequel story material for F91 which itself was cut and became a so-so movie story. As for Crossbone, good fucking luck trying to adapt the material without involving the author in any way, shape, or form.

>>13902806
Thank god someone gets it.

>>13902859
>it's like you forgot CCA, F91, and 0083 which for their time were high budget and well animated. People still uphold them for well animated scenes.

Good. Doesnt mean Unicorn's story isnt poorly written

>Meh, the same could be said for 0083.
agreed

>You say that like Zanscare isn't just another Zeon by a different name.
But it's not trying to be blatantly Zeon, like the Sleeves, and although I see your point you can't call any armed group a zeon clone just to suit your argument. The Sleeves were trying EXACTLY to be a new Zeon group with no differentiation, which is why I believe it is lazy writing.

>It's already kind of BS that we have colonies rising up so easily with enough army strength to take on the EFF out of fucking nowhere
This is where I actually think Unicorn shines. The story sets the reason why corporations and colonies stop supporting the EF after so many years and why they become so weak and irrelevant by F91 and Victory. I may be giving it too much credit though.

>AU Gundam series have trouble selling their less Zaku-expy grunts
Well besides really needing proof for that, I know that some suits like the Byarlant Custom and the Stark Jegan were popular enough to get their own gunpla. It tells me that it has more to do with depiction than really just trying to stick to the same thing over and over.

>Is Sentinel really have that popular?
Was thunderbolt? Either way if they animate the story they could pull in some unexpected profit and praise, something they can always have more of.

>That's silly. F90 is even more niche than Sentinel seeing as it was only ever an early 90s short manga and was prequel story material for F91 which itself was cut and became a so-so movie story
Yeah I agree, but thats just my wishful thinking

>As for Crossbone, good fucking luck trying to adapt the material without involving the author in any way, shape, or form.
Not too far fetched considering how little tomino got a say in G-Reco, but yeah I guess

So will the new content be animated by the same studio? If they didn't It would be pretty jarring seeing the difference between the beautiful ova footage and the new scenes. Still looking forward to it either way.

>>13902882
>This is where I actually think Unicorn shines. The story sets the reason why corporations and colonies stop supporting the EF after so many years and why they become so weak and irrelevant by F91 and Victory.
One thing I can give credit to Unicorn is finally doing away with all of the Zeon Earthsphere remnants left over from OYW, Haman's Zeon, and Char's Zeon. Yeah, I say earthsphere because there's F90's Mars Zeon.

>Well besides really needing proof for that, I know that some suits like the Byarlant Custom and the Stark Jegan were popular enough to get their own gunpla. It tells me that it has more to do with depiction than really just trying to stick to the same thing over and over.
I don't deny that. Gyan apparently sold like hotcakes thanks to its depiction in Build Fighters, even though it was a competitor to the MC. Byarlant was a new mold I think, but HGUC Stark Jegan would have just been a repackage of the HGUC Jegan runners but with some new extra parts for the differences of the Stark version. Not sure if HGUC Jegan came out before Unicorn premiered.

>Was thunderbolt? Either way if they animate the story they could pull in some unexpected profit and praise, something they can always have more of.
Thunderbolt is a currently ongoing manga which apparently is somewhat popular, at least. Sentinel hasn't seen anything new in years. Unfortunately, Sunrise doesn't seem to want to bother negotiating for story and character rights, leading to silly things like Ex-S Gundam appearing in EXVSFB PS3 but with a blank character portrait cut-in.

>Not too far fetched considering how little tomino got a say in G-Reco, but yeah I guess
I hear it started out under his complete control (and as a non-Gundam project) but then he had to compromise in order to get it animated. Which involved attaching the Gundam name to it. He probably still had his usual level of meddling, I think he probably did some storyboarding and perhaps some script-writing.

>>13902894
Why would Sunrise outsource Unicorn TV to another studio? Yamato 2199 and Break Blade didn't get fucked up in their transition to TV series format, did they?

>>13902904
No, I meant which of Sunrise's studio.

>>13902882
>Unicorn's story isnt poorly written
Why is it poorly written? I certainly don't think it's worse than any other series.

>lazy writing
Why? Because you don't like it? I mean I know 4chan isn't the place to go for proper criticism, but you can't take details you didn't like and label it with "bad/lazy writing". That's not how things work.

>I may be giving it too much credit though.
Why?

>thats just my wishful thinking
And thank god no one's ever going to listen to you

>more Zeonwanking
Is it really that hard to make another late-UC series?

Hell, I'll even take Crossbone at this point

>>13902936

Of course it is, because Late UC bombed.

>>13902943
Pretty much. Unless viewers get thoroughly sick of early UC (unlikely), they won't go any further.

>>13902916
>Why is it poorly written?
In my opinion, the main characters are really shallow and have to spell out everything that happens in the show.
It is usually better if the viewer isn't held by the hand, but unfortunately a lot of people prefer this because they like to be entertained and not challenged with any thought provoking material.

Beyond that, the end result of the plot has very little impact to most who watch it. The people I watched it with pretty much told me "that's it? that's what's in the box?". It's an underwhelming ending that is built up heavily by the characters throughout the episodes.

There's more I can say but these are 2 of my biggest gripes, basically that the only good characters are Zimmerman and Marida, and that the plot eventually let everyone down.

>Why? Because you don't like it?
No it's because the Zeon Remnant plot has been done to death by everyone else before. Making another Not-Zeon for what is blatantly easy profit is lazy writing at its core.
If it was written more creatively or put an interesting spin on the idea I would probably praise it but it makes no attempt to do so.

About the too much credit:
I have no clue if the end result of Unicorn has any bearing on the rest of the UC stories, but it would be interesting if it did. For a series that holds the viewers hand through everything that happens its surprising that they just cut you off right after the Laplace Box secret is revealed and give no real explanation as to how it changes anything. I think the writer wanted to make it so that you form your own assumptions afterword, so that's what I did.

>And thank god no one's ever going to listen to you
You did though, and that's what matters.

>>13902943
>Late UC bombed

More like it was butchered. F91 never had a chance, and most people like Victory so I don't see how you can say it "bombed"

ova 1-2: 55 min of footage
ova 3: 58 min
ova 4: 56 min
ova 5: 48 min
ova 6 54 min
ova 7: 1:28 h

total: 414 min of footage

TV series: 20 min each ep.

>they have footage for almost 21 eps, if it's 24 eps we get +3 eps worth of footage(+60 min); if it's 26 eps then we gonna get +5 eps of new footage(+100 min)

What makes anyone think we'll get new footage?

>>13902943
>>13902967
I still don't get it. If Sunrise can still make AU shows what's stopping them from doing late-UC?

>>13902916
>Why is it poorly written?
Not him, but let's see:
1. The whole Laplace's Box conflict is bullshit to anyone with even a cursory understanding of how the law works. And not to mention that that last article is so vague that it cannot possibly hold up in court.
2. Full Frontal's existence is never explained. When your character's entire basis is being a walking Char reference, then it should be required from a storytelling standpoint that you explain it.
3. Banana himself hardly grows as a character (in fact he de-evolves several times learns hardly anything from it). Rather finding his place in the world like any main character should, his entire arc boils down to a putrid puddle of ODORIIIs and SORE DEMOs.

If you were able to look past big-budget animation and music (which blinds most people), you'd see it too.

>>13903003

Because it's all about profit.

And ask yourself, which is more profitable: retreading the One Year War for the umpteenth time, or taking a risk and making a new animated installment in a timeline that severely under-performed?

So wait, are they actually animating new footage or just taking the 7 OVAs and cutting them up to make a series?

>>13903018
Both presumably, but don't get your hopes up. At best it'll probably be end up like the Break Blade TV series.

Yeah, all the other shows get a pass for doing this, but because Unicorn is popular we'll have to pretend it's the only culprit of this.

Why?

Name how this happens in any other series.
Amuro? Disappears into Newtype space dust magic
Kamille? Literal braindead retard
Judau? Fucks off to Jupiter
Kou? Shiro?

I can only make a case for Uso, but that's it

>If you were able to look past big-budget animation and music (which blinds most people), you'd see it too.
If you weren't making up reasons to hate it because it's popular, then you'd see that it doesn't do anything wrong that other series don't do as well.

So is this going to be like First Gundam where we have two canon versions of events? (TV series & Movies)

>>13903006
Just keep in mind that taking a risk hasn't really been such a bad idea in the past.
00 wasnt anything like the OYW and it did well. Same with IBO so far.
The problem is that they need to evaluate why it under-performed, which is pretty much due to poor decisions made by the company at the time (all that money wasted on G-Saviour and F91's story, originally a TV series, being turned into a movie). If we, a bunch of anons on a chinese cartoon board, can see it then I don't see why industry professionals cannot.

Is there going to be new footage, or is it just a tv airing of the OVAs?

So will this mean that the new novel will be adapted?

I'd love an actual substantial ending. Maybe something that deals with the fates of the characters and what the HELL happens to the Unicorn and Banshee. (Both suits are obviously fully usable after the final battle.)

>>13901246
This is gonna get butchered. IBO already got complaints from parents, this will just get more

>New unicorn project announced even before IBO ends

It's really doing that bad isn't it?

IBO had such hope at the start, talk about wasted potential...

IBO is doing poorly. Quite poorly. Not AGE-poorly, but it's not much better.

>If we, a bunch of anons on a chinese cartoon board, can see it then I don't see why industry professionals cannot.

I suppose you also couldn't see that it was marketed as UC, yet was so far removed from everything that defined UC at that point that it may as well have been in a different timeline were it not for the existence of the Federation. Same with V.

>>13902094
Never mind that, have you seen what happened to Sentai after Go-Busters tried to use the military theme again? The parents will outright tear Unicorn to shreds.

>>13903049
>Both suits are obviously fully usable after the final battle.

Unicorn appeared to be, but the Banshee took some pretty moderate damage over OVA 7. Remember is lost a leg and had all of its weapons destroyed. (Plus had all of its Vulcan cannons blown out)

It's quite possible that the Banshee was abandoned due to lack of repairs. They obviously didn't have a supply line for the high end replacement parts that it would need.

>>13903071

This.

IMO is highly likely the Banshee was used for spare parts for the Unicorn. ALA the spare Mk II Gundam that the AEUG kept around for parts for Kamilles suit.

I think its Gundam fatigue time... they need to ease up a bit.

>>13903005
>The whole Laplace's Box conflict is bullshit to anyone with even a cursory understanding of how the law works.
Not to mention the whole reveal in UC 0001 would be pants on head retarded if it was going to really happen
>HERE YOU GO, MINNA-SAN! A NEW SURPRISE! A SECRET ARTICLE NOBODY TOLD YOU ANYTHING ABOUT!!!
>YOU DIDN'T VOTE FOR IT! YOU DIDN'T APPROVE IT! BUT HERE YOU GO!

Well I'm hoping for some new footage. (Full Frontal backstory pls Bandai)

But this is really looking like a cut up job just to have something to fill the prime TV time slot they have.

>>13903032
>Yeah, all the other shows get a pass for doing this, but because Unicorn is popular we'll have to pretend it's the only culprit of this.
No other gundam show does this nearly as hard, and even when the others do give too much exposition that doesn't mean they receive praise for it, obviously.

>20 episodes in Zeta, 0083, the entirety of ZZ and CCA. "Done to Death", huh.
Yes that is exactly what it means. It has been done before too many times and I would love for you to try to argue otherwise with anyone on this board about that.

>And not to mention that that last article is so vague that it cannot possibly hold up in court. Why?
Because it doesn't overwrite the current accepted law. In the end it could mean jack shit to the EF considering they could just say "well the law in place is the one we will follow".
It's like finding a copy of the constitution that says the right to own slaves cannot be taken away from the people. Most people and lawmakers would not acknowledge it and just treat it as a piece of defunct law.

>Amuro? Disappears into Newtype space dust magic
Went back to lead Londo Bell after many years of what is essentially PTSD and died in battle.
>Kamille? Literal braindead retard
Finds a new family on the argama and in the military, gets over his autism, essentially dies.
>Judau? Fucks off to Jupiter
Sets out to find his sister and did just that. Hooks up with Roux and goes to find a new life for himself instead of dicking around in his old colony where he used to live.
>Shiro
Gets married and gives up military life presumably.
>Kou
Ending was really vague for him and he doesn't change too much either.
>Banagher?
Nothing implied. Doesn't really change.

>If you weren't making up reasons to hate it because it's popular, then you'd see that it doesn't do anything wrong that other series don't do as well.
Defending it by calling it good because it's popular is worse in every sense. You don't really seem to make a case for why its good either.

I'd like to see post box fallout among the public.

The Laplace box going public is the perfect explanation to why the Federation fell apart so damn quickly afterwards. (In the span of five decades it was basically gone, that's fast as hell when you look at it from a historical context)

>>13903104
>Kou

I really wish we got more info on what happened to him. Did he stay a test pilot forever?

He had all the potential to be a really GOAT oldtype pilot. Remember all of 0083 basically takes the same time length that First Gundam did. Kou racked up some serious kill numbers in that time.

>>13903060
>yet was so far removed from everything that defined UC
????
Define UC for me please. As far as I can tell any of these shows are UC if they call it UC like in G-Reco did or they reference something like the OYW or the EF.
Even if was marketed as UC, saying its far removed has no negative bearing on the show anyway.
That's like saying the show tanked because it didn't have enough Zaku ripoffs in it. If that's what people wanted well then they got their wish with the shows that came after it, like Seed and Turn A.

And Seed did well because of the characters and bullshit gundams, not because of the Zaku ripoffs. Turn A had THE Zakus from OYW and still didn't do as well as Sunrise had hoped.

http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/news/2016-02-20/gundam-uc-anime-gets-tv-broadcast-with-new-opening-ending-themes/.98914
Well, unless ANN are being stupid, it's definitely official.

>>13903107
I would like to think that's the thing that sparked the whole EF losing power thing. In addition they also stopped contracting Anaheim for their mobile suits, instead making the SNRI which was probably a bad idea in the end.

>>13903114
>Did he stay a test pilot forever?

I always took the ending as him being set up to be drummed out of the service. He was demoted and sent to an effective backwater base to test extremely old suits. I highly doubt he would ever come up for promotion after the reprimands on his record. Once he reached his max time in grade, he was probably shown the door.

I imagine he grew even more disgruntled when the Titans started pulling their shenanigans.

>>13903126
Going for SNRI was a perfectly fine idea. SNRI produced smaller, lighter, and cheaper mobile suits. Later on, they even used Minovsky Drive technology efficiently. Anaheim's suits were large, bulky, and expensive. Furthermore, it was a time of peace post-Zeonic Wars. Huge, lumbering machines designed for long wars were no longer necessary, but small strike forces suited for fast-response task forces were ideal.

>>13903129
>I highly doubt he would ever come up for promotion after the reprimands on his record.

In all depends on how much was left after the cover up. Remember his court sentence was thrown out because the Titans/Feds covered up everything involved with the Gundam Development Project.

I'd imagine that he would join the AEUG pretty quickly after the 30 Bunch Incident.

>>13903121
>That's like saying the show tanked because it didn't have enough Zaku ripoffs in it.

In fairness, that does factor in, really.

UC to a lot of people is the Federation, Zeon, and all else that comes with it, and that's exactly why we have so many stories that are Feddies vs Zeeks, defenders vs holdouts or remnants and god knows what else. In games, in anime, in manga, it doesn't matter where, it's almost all-pervasive and definitive at this point.

And yes, Turn A did have Zakus, but it had almost nothing else besides except Kapools and a few one-off things used for fanservice. The setting of Turn A is so distant from UC that they're almost incomparable.

>>13903129
He probably joined team zeta, not necessarily same ship. It's like the pilot of Blue Destiny 01 he ended up in CCA piloting a jegan.

>>13903143
yes everything you said is true but losing that contract probably did more damage to overall trade and the economy
letting a large company tank like that isn't good for anyone, especially when AE wasnt just developing prototype military mobile suits. probably ended up hurting the EF more than it helped them
this is all assumption anyways

>>13903126
>>13903169
Ae didn't disappear or stop making MS for the EF. SNRI mostly made high end ms to test new technologies, AE still made a lot of mass production stuff. Iirc SNRI was supposed to be using AEs factories to produce some stuff as well.

SNRI was mostly supposed to balance out the power AE held, not remove it completely.

>>13903160
>UC to a lot of people is the Federation, Zeon, and all else that comes with it
I have to say you are right for all the wrong reasons. It's only worse when you realize it's popular here too for no reason at all besides it just being a meme.
To me, presumably the minority, UC is just a timeline. Everything you defined UC as is also irrelevant to a lot of people but remains popular anyways.

Despite that, using that logic I don't see how things like Gundam Sentinel and The Blue Destiny wouldn't be worth the risk.

A good 30 minutes of OVA7 could be completely scrapped, which I honestly hope that they do in favour of a new ending. Depending on how many weeks they're given, there could be 4-6 episodes worth of new content.

>>13902859
>It's already kind of BS that we have colonies rising up so easily with enough army strength to take on the EFF out of fucking nowhere, and you want them to invent another one out of the asshole?

The Crossbone Vanguard couldn't do shit against anyone but local colony garrisons. If the Federation actually intervened, they'd be fucked, but they instead just watched from the sidelines and let the problem take care of itself. Strangely enough, it did.

Zanscare was able to do as well as it did because the Federation was pretty much held hostage by the economic crisis it was stuck in, and even then, they still managed to put up a pretty good fight holding them at bay while League Militaire took care of the important shit.

Most of the post-Unicorn conflicts happened as a result of the Federation either not giving a shit or being so broke that they could barely mobilize without breaking the bank.

>>13903071
>It's quite possible that the Banshee was abandoned due to lack of repairs. They obviously didn't have a supply line for the high end replacement parts that it would need.

Not necessarily true, with the Magallanica, which likely had plenty of spare Unicorn parts.

/m/ really wants you to know that they don't like Unicorn.

I have a few questions about the timeline between Unicorn and Victory(I have not seen either series in a long time).

Is it safe to assume that Laplace's Box contained the blueprints for Zanscare's superweapon and their other technology ?

What happened to the previous protagonists who could have put up a fight against Zanscare? Did they die between Unicorn and Victory or go further into space ?

Was Zanscare connected to what was left of Zeon or were they the group who finally finished off what was left of Zeon ?
