What would happen if Kojima was brought in to direct a Gundam series?

There will be gundam-like cyborgs instead of big tin-cans

>>14843729
It would be better than IBO for sure

>>14843729
The first episodes would be absolutely amazing but it would fall apart half-season because he sucks at scheduling.

>>14843779
But even AGE and GBF Try are better than IBO already so that's not saying much, anon.
>>14843729
>Sons of JABURO
I'd watch it.
>>14843782
Sunrise isn't as evil as Konami so he'd be okay.

>>14843782
So he advising Nagai, is what you're saying.

Visually amazing.
The trailers would stir up hype like you wouldn't believe.

The actual show will be a colossal disappointment due to how absurdly hype the trailers were and how Kojima doesn't really know how to pace things in an episodic format, but good lord will the high points of the show be the stuff of legend resulting in a lot of salt over how the bulk of the show never lives up to when Kojima's Gundam gets its shit together.

>>14843729

Zone of the Enders.

>>14843729
The cinematography would be GOAT, like Anno on Eva.

>>14843812
>>14843782
>Let's keep beating the MGSV dead horse guys!

>>14843841
Kojima's experience with an episodic structure is limited to Peace Walker and V, and I think Peace Walker worked more because it was bite sized chunks of what would normally be the usual Hideo Kojima fare of "pretty much an interactive movie."

So that leaves V, which is a collection of conflict of the week and plot arcs more in line with a western serialized TV series and while it worked, it felt chock full of filler at times with Kojima stretching out content to its thinnest just to get as many episode-missions out of it as V had. And V eventually resorted to having reruns to pad its length out, that's pretty meh.

As for trailer hype, Kojima is godly at that sort of stuff, he has a good eye for making good trailers and I feel that can go either way, V being a case of what happens when the game doesn't live up to the trailers.

So yeah call me out for prodding V's corpse some more, I won't deny it. But I feel it's relevant when discussing what we know of his ability to do a tv series. He's shown affinity for feature length films, but episodic shows is territory he has yet to show full competence with.

There'd be a misunderstanding of 10th grade concepts, lots of exposition, and a very unsubtle message about nuclear weapons.

He'd fit right in

Canned in preproduction for sure.
>>14843815
He said Kojima, not Okamura.
>>14843865
>He's shown affinity for feature length films
When did this happen?

>>14843889
MGS4.

>>14843889
>When did this happen?
MGS through to MGS4.

>>14843894
>>14843891
>MGS4
Seriously now?

>>14843903
Is it not a feature length movie?

>>14843822
>The cinematography would be GOAT
Kojima didn't do any cinematography for MGS, you guys are greatly exaggerating his actual input in the series. He had a whole separate team directing cutscenes especially evident if you watch any making of.

>>14843729

More nanomachines nonsense

>>14843975
Of course not, it's three feature length films with an OVA between 2 and 3.

>>14843729

He did though. It was called Zone of the Enders.

The first ZoE game was essentially a remake of the original Gundam show's opening episodes.

>>14843729
We would be seeing newtypes that are created using nanomachines

What would a Gundam designed by Yoji Shinkawa look like?

>>14844167
>Kojima directed ZoE

>>14844194
It would look like a mteal gear with a gundam head.

>>14843729
One of the shittiest japanese devs

Speaking of ZoE, are there any similar games in terms of gameplay/battles?
I haven't really played it for more than half an hour since my PS2 is unavailable and emulation is too slow.

>>14844230
"no"

>>14843746
Nope, the gundams would either be ZoE take super robots or limited production run military equipment that would rarely see action and would rather be used as deterrents.

>>14844020
He's done directing on his games, the extent to which I don't know.
But he did edit the launch trailer for mgsv and a few others iirc.

>>14844391
he directed all of the MGSV trailers, except for the release one which was done by some NAMCO team.

Oh, and let's not forget the trailers for the show that don't clue you in on anything.

Astebreed is like Z.O.E. turned into a shmup.

>>14844343
On the Japanese region Xbox360 there were two Zegapain games designed to be gameplay knockoffs of ZoE.

Metal Gear SEED: The Phantom Pain

AKA CE 73 OVA except Stargazer has a nuke and Voltiere Lumiere is made of nanomachines

>>14843729
Char's Counterattack ends with an elderly Char and Amuro having one last swordfight.

>>14844361
Yes

Gundam's that roar

It will be a 50 episode affair. When it airs episode 30-35 will be incredibly under produced, to the point episode 35 is crude penciled sketches with a couple bar napkins involved. Then it will jump right into a 15-part finale.The final episode will go over it's 25 minute runtime, and people will have to wait to see the two hours of cut footage.

There would be an influx of really stupid or fanatic fans of Kojima who will only watch his series and then call every other Gundam series shit or trash. Just like what happened when Urobuchi was brought in to direct Kamen Rider Gaim.

>>14848132
They would also call it a deconstruction despite the themes being something there franchise has covered before

>>14843729
A prequel with things that look like Metal Gear.

>>14843729
It'd probably be like Iron-Blooded Orphans, but y'know, CONSISTENTLY good. Protagonist would be a hardass with a soft center, and a mentality that hearkens back to older Gundam protagonists.

Instead of "STOP FIGHTING AND UNDERSTAND EACH OTHER", we'd get a guy who understands that war is hell, there's little he can do in the larger scheme of things to end it, and fights mainly to keep himself and those he cares about alive.

you all act as if nukes, nanomachines, poor direction and over convoluted plot themes aren't already staples of the gundam universe.

>>14843729
It'd be shit people hype up because they think an overly convoluted Star Wars knockoff=brilliant writing.

>>14843865
>Kojima's experience with an episodic structure is limited to Peace Walker and V

You forgot MGS4 as well which totally shits the bed after act 2.

notice how no one shits on revengeance?

>>14848705
Because no one wants to deal with insufferable Platinum fanboys.

>>14848705
Because it's a fun game?

>>14848708

try saying this out loud. or to an actual person irl

>>14848498

kek. Gundam's plot is no where near as convoluted as MG lore which so wrinkly it literally sends ripples through backwards through space-time.

>>14849337
And isn't that rather lacking for gundam? Why not create a intrincate story tying the gundams like Kojima did with MGS? Its because you faggots can only keep repeating memes, he has done more for mecha anime than any of your precious tomino or whatever else bullshit but you cannot face that reality

Seriously. Everything in 00 was the culmination of a plan some asshole came up with 200 years prior to the start of the show and that mother fucker had plans within plans within plans for people who he didn't even know would exist in case they fucked up his plans within plans within plans.

>>14848701
Are you trying to imply that Metal Gear is a Star Wars ripoff?

>>14849858
Give it a rest Kojima, MGS4 & 5 were shit, and I'm not looking forward to death stranding.

What if Gundam were directed by Hideki Kamiya?

>>14843871
You forget impressing people with said misunderstanding of concepts
There are people who say he predicted several things including drones in warfare
Despite the fact such things have not only been discussed about by other, more respected insttutes, drones in military use (particularly surveillance) have been a subject that the military, not even just the US, have been pursuing before even the 1950s
The only people who consider Kojima a visionary are people who clearly lack a rounded education, or with the drone thing, the ability to give a glance on something that can readily be figured out with a trip to wikipedia
He makes good games though, sometimes anyways.

>>14848802

Bingo, for all the whole talk about space colonies not getting good treatment it is rarely touch upon beyond off site incidents and police brutality. Rarely you see the hammer come down like Dort.

>>14849397

How so?

>>14849915

>Beyond off site incidents and police brutality

Because it seems like it is either regular riot suppression or TIME TO COMPLETELY DESTROY A COLONY in Zeta because Bask gotta Bask

- Side 1, 30 Bunch got gassed (Pre Gryps Conflict)
- Side 2, 25 Bunch almost got gassed
- Side 2, 18 Bunch got vaporized by colony laser
- Side 2, 21 Bunch got gassed
- Side 2, 13 Bunch almost got gassed

>>14848703
4 isn't an episode structure, it's a play in acts.

And PW is actually more like a book adaptation.

Solid is the game, 2 is the game of the game, 3 is the film, 4 is the play, PW is the book, 5 is the TV show.

>>14848469
>It'd probably be like Iron-Blooded Orphans, but y'know, CONSISTENTLY good.
>CONSISTENTLY

Not since 2004 he ain't.

>>14850686
He's made consistently FUN games, but the writing hasn't been as consistent.
I like his concepts but the execution can be hit or miss.
>>14849882
Why not?

>>14850304

Like showing the titans gunning down civies in the street for no good reason kind of oppression.

Torturing an Aeug sympathizer that dies in Kamilles arms. Badly mutilated and shit

A gulag somewhere that holds political prisoners

>>14849385
>Why not create a intrincate story tying the gundams like Kojima did with MGS?

Because there is a fine line between intricate story telling and one with a bloated plot. After MGS1, the entire franchise just spun out of control.

>>14850208
By showing that human sould would remain weighted down by gravity, even in a fucking space colony.

And additional health hazards.

Does that make Revengeance the western Michael Bay remake?

>>14843729
It turns out a secret group has been controlling the Federation and every aspect of Zeon and Jupiter too all from the beginning.

>>14851759
I'd say the manga.
Where do the Acid games and PO fit in? The CCG and old cartoon that five people remember and liked?

>>14848705
Because platinum games has the worst fan base ever and they refuse to critique their special snowflake wacky developer idols.

I don't get it desu, and their character writing/cutscene direction makes me wince.

>>14851759
ironic how revengeance is the best metal gear

>>14852866
Where are you getting this from.
Do you suck at their games and whine about it on /v/, only to have people tell you to fuck off?

PG fans admit the Korra was subpar, TMNT was trash, and that Bayo2 is easier than Bayo1, while being a slightly worse game overall.

The only people who I've ever seen have a gripe with PGfans, are the people who get anal whenever MGR's canonicity gets brought up.

>>14852092
Don't forget about Ghost Babel on GBC, which fits as the direct-to-video remake that got cancelled prematurely.

>>14852877
Joking aside, MGR demonstrated a better grasp & utilization of Raiden's character than MGS4

>>14852866
>Because platinum games has the worst fan base ever and they refuse to critique their special snowflake wacky developer idols

Cite your sources pindick

>>14852896
I'm not really a metal gear fanboy honestly.
All criticism towards the games you mentioned is usually deflected at the publishers.

A much more ontological Tomino Gundam but less deadly and slightly more coherent in terms of dialogue

Oh, and Newtypes use nanomachines

>>14853029
An Armstrong Gundam would be nice.
