I expect UC OVAs out of the ass now that unicorn and thunderbolt have proven to be popular. Twilight axis is already on the way and I bet that won't be the end of it.

As for a new main series, I have no fucking clue. Beams will most likely return though.

I don't think we'll get a main series this year, or at least until Q4 of 2018.
Plenty of UC ONAs and OVAs though.

I hope Twilight Axis tries to be more original than Federation vs Zeon remnants. Maybe Federation vs Jupiter?
>>
>>15397043

Well, the decision to not have beams as a regular weapon was apparently a deliberate stylistic choice by the staff to help differentiate not just the series, but the current time period and factions from mobile armors of the past. It only stands to reason that the next production will go back to them, since they're unlikely to be forced to adhere to that choice or freely make it.

Well tell me when it was, because 70% of /m/ animes use CGI rather than 2D since 2000. 00 is an ovni not the standard.

It's about the Federation sending a team of soldiers and civilian specialist (who formerly worked for Neo-Zeon) into Axis to retrieve important data, but they run into a second group of scavengers financed by the Ronah family.

So we'll probably learn how the Buch Concern/Crossbone Vanguard got its hand on certain technology, funding, etc. through this incident.
>>
>>15397152
More like its a footnote to the real ultimate truth of the UC, the Feds are actually the bad guys and they dropped the colony on themselves! The greatest falseflag in history with poor Zeon as the scapegoats while the Earth elite laughed menacingly infront of a pile of money and baby spacenoids (you can tell he's a spacenoid because his soul isn't bound by gravity)

>>
>>15397271

I disagree. Most G-Reco fights were pretty boring honestly. The one I always recall being the fight against the Yggdrassil, where it's setup as a crazy monster of a unit with beams that grow and twist like vines, taking down everything before it. And the resolution is Bellri turning on invincible shields, flying toward it and stabbing it with a beam saber because it's beams don't affect his copy/paste shield.
>>
>>15397271
G-Reco's beam weaponry was absolutely gorgeous, I wish I had some webms on hand

My favourite was probably the beam vulcans, they looked like the blobby stream of plasma they really should be
>>
>>15397271
00, Build Fighters, Age, and G-Reco had pretty nice fights. IBO had some alright fights, but I just couldn't buy into the direction they took the fights. There were no good fights if Mika wasn't around, Akihiro vs Galan was an ok fight but that's 1 fight out of a season's worth of "watch how strong Mika and Barbatos are swinging BIG MACE around and killing grunts effortlessly" which was 90% of the other fights.
>>
Never in your life will you fuck up as hard as Mari Okada did. She managed to reach Anthony Burch levels of fuck up. She almost managed to Pitchford.

They're literally animating an Ark Performance manga as a main show.

Don't kid yourself. G Gundam was fun, but had a lot of stock animation.
Gundam 00 on the other hand barely used stock footage.
>>
>>15397005
I'd rather if the next show has both projectile weapons and beam weapons, as well as energy weapons that are an alternative to beam weapons and are equally powerful. As in weapons that have energy fields around them that allow them to block beam sabers. Yep. Power Weapons that you see in other settings like Dune, Hyperion or Warhammer 40000.

The ballistic and power weapons are the more logical, sensible and practical weapons. Beam weapons are exotic and powerful (beam sabers can be blocked by power weapons), but too flashy and power consuming.

MC uses the ballistic and power weapons.

Hating beams is such a fucking meme.
IBO was just stills and the "melee" combat we saw was almost always very poorly animated.

AGE had way better fights than a majority of IBO, the animators on AGE knew how to properly animate action in 3D spaces.

>>
>>15397765
I remember when Mika used the dust to cover up his attack back in episode 3 or so, I thought that this series was going for the TACTICS angle, it was a shame that they dropped that all.
>>
>>15398187
Agreed. Tekkadan was supposed to be pragmatic soldiers to Gjallarnhorn and their brand of chivalry and various levels of how much they'd break this chivalry in order to win the situation.
>>
>>15398187
A lot of early fights had the mobile suits trading blows as well, for the "no instant kill beam" angle. And then the fights ended up just being instant kills anyway with mace and sword one-shots.
>>
>>15397005
I want both. In reality, neither directed energy weapons or physical projectiles would be the ultimate weapon useful in all scenarios. Different environments and different enemy defenses should necessitate different types of attack. Give me that, where Gundams have to adapt to the situation instead of being unstoppable murder machines. It actually would have worked great in IBO, with how season 1 had the Barbatos constantly being refitted. It could make for a cool arms race, too. Your first fight with the recurring rival character you're defeated because he's got armor meant to counter the sort of weapons you use, so you change what you've got, then he changes what he's got, and back and forth as the series goes on.
>>
>>15398248
They did exactly that in the entirety of S1 though.

Until Gjallarhorn was using dirty tricks against them in S2.
>>
>>15398265
Remember when blades needed to hit the enemy in the gaps between armor to work, because cutting right through a mobile suit was near impossible? I miss that.

Not a direct sequel, but something in similar style
>>
>>15398274
Yeah. Added that Gjallarnhorn had shitloads of grunts and resources when compared to Tekkadan.

Although battle-hardened, even Tekkadan would fall to sheer numbers.

It's essentially the I WIN button in IBO. If you have a hundred MSs with them (and another 100 to constantly reload them), then you don't give a shit. You just sit back and relax while your enemies are slaughtered en-masses.

A thick, durable magnetic armor that weakens the power of the Dainsleif's power to the point the rail bounces off the armor. Also would be efficient against other weapons currently available.

I had pretty high hopes for what you would link to, because there are some pretty absurd showings of beam weapons in Gundam, but that's a pretty mundane, if not fluidly animated beam saber clash. It wouldn't have played out any differently if they were dual wielding solid weapons.

Same. Really weird that the coolest weapon in the show is a mass produced one that didn't even seem to be designed to sell kits.
>>
>>15398342
We had several episodes of build-up, what with them stating repeatedly how illegal it is. And quite frankly, seeing how it utterly trivializes mobile suits, I agree. It was too practical, too efficient. It single-handedly decides battles.

I will genuinely miss it, as we'll probably go back to the same old formula of either using a super-weapon once and forgetting about it, or have it become the new fodder of the week.
>>
>>15398518
The Gundam Frames are made to win battles, the Dainsliefs are made to win wars.
>>
Dansleifs remind me of using overpowered weapons in Earth Defense Force. From the point of view of the one firing the weapon, you are a fragile little sitting duck.
But it doesn't matter because it's so overwhelming the enemy likely can't get close enough to do anything about it.
>>
>>15397811
Beam weapons can already be blocked by other beam weapons, at least in UC. Why do you need to throw in Power Weapons into the mix?
>>
>>15398562
He probably wants his Gundam to be more like 40k or something, so he can bring all the 40k memes over to this board.
>>
>>15398342
There is probably a viable counter to it stockpiled somewhere but Gjallarhorn will be damned if they ever let it see the light of day again.
>>
>>15398326
My gripe with them, is that it doesn't make sense to me why Melee Combat is such a focus when Dainsleifs exist? It completely undermines the combat that we were introduced to
>>
>>15398576
Dainsleifs are banned for a good reason, nevermind the fact that the Gundam Frames were created and needed to win against the Mobile Armors. Remember, old Gjallarhorn is all about tradition, they're not suddenly going to bring out the Dainsleifs and spam them. Iok was an idiot so he obviously doesn't know the ramifications of using them. Rustal knows and he'll be doing his damnest to shove those weapons under the rugs before other people wizen up and start stockpiling Dainsleifs of their own.
>>
>>15398567
40k memes can stay on /tg/ where they appreciate them like a Matt Ward codex
>>
>>15398604

> Dainsleifs are banned for a good reason

Which is what exactly? Because I can't see a reason to do so.
>>
>>15398604
Though you have to think about CW too.
While Flauros and Kimaris Origin/Vidar show reliance with the Dansleif rounds on the later models, depending on its deployment you have to wonder why did CW Mobile Suits focus mainly on melee if Dansleifs can trivalise combat. Mobile Armors are larger targets, Dansleifs are adaptable as seen with Orbital Bombardment, Volleys and Flauros and if anything, Pluma can just be wiped out by a clean up squad straight after the bombardment and finish off the damaged MA.
>>15398629
Can't let people use it on you. Imagine space pirates with Dansleif rounds. Cause so much mayhem and it would be hard to stop it with regular MS.
>>
>>15398629
Because it completely distorts the balance of power. In the past, the power hierarchy can be defined as Gundam Frame > Mobile Suits > Mobile Workers, with Gjallarhorn controlling most of the Gundram Frames and Suits, which gives them a lot of power. Dainsleifs pretty much fucked that hierarchy in every orifice and made it its bitch. As we've seen in every battle, Dainsleifs > Everything, which even includes Capital Ships. No longer are battles determined by silly little things like mobile suits, or numerical superiority or even tactics. It's now 'Do you have Dainsleifs?', 'How many do you have?' followed by 'How many can you fire off before the enemy can?' If other powers starts stockpiling them as well, you have System-wide Cold War.
>>
>>15398647
MA are extremely resilient and can self-repair., not to mention they target human settlements above all else. Dainsleifs alone can't finish them off, you need to get in close and demolish everything like Barbatos did. And if you can't and it gets inside a city, you can't orbital bombard it anymore, and it has all the materials and cover it needs to destroy everything.
>>
>>15398681
Isn't self repair mostly due to the Plumas?
I wouldn't be surprised if they changed the rounds used with the Dansleif cannons. Something like a EMP if they wanted to try distrupt the microwaves used to control plumas to support ground troops
It would be interesting to see a manga or OVA on a Calamity War fight.
It could be a complex yet enjoyable thing. Shit like attempts at luring the MA away to fire at it, seeing tactics trying to reflect beams and having stuff like Flauros providing dansleif support while Bael goes 1v1 on it would be fun to watch.
Man the MA arc was the most enjoyable thing to not mock at in S2
>>
>>15398725

That's like saying crossbows should be illegal because they disrupted the balance of power. Just because a weapon is effective doesn't make banning it good. Yea, if pirates stocked them it'd mean they could do shitty things - but on the other hand it means that Gjallarhorn are the only ones with the "I win" button, making them much harder to fight against should anyone decide that it's worth doing. An arms race involving them implies making armor that's actually effective against them. Otherwise it's not much of a race in the first place.
>>
>>15398872
If crossbows can take out aircraft carriers, you bet your ass it will be made illegal.
>>
>>15398950

That analogy doesn't really work though, there are weapon systems right now that can sink an aircraft carrier. They designed systems to defeat those systems, not ban or outlaw them.
>>
>>15397023

Y'all.
>>15397028
Don't start this shit. I suffered through the FFXV thread bullshit on /v/, but not here.
>>
>>15398970
Except there is no counter to Dainsleif. It pierced through a space battleship and it can be used as very accurate orbital bombardment. I mean, if IRL there's an man-portable anti-material rifle that can take out battleships with a single shot, that rifle will be restricted, if not outright banned. That way, any non-compliant nations can be bombed to hell and back for using it against them.
>>
>>15399030
Actually there is a counter: build a better slef and strike first.

I bet the original Calamity War started with an out of control arms race too.

>>15399074
Isn't that what happened during the Cold War? Both sides just kept on building bigger and more fucked up nukes. I mean, Project Pluto was such a heinous idea that the US realize the mere existence of this idea was enough to probably start an actual Nuclear War between them and the Soviet Union. As some point, someone is going to upgrade the Dainsleif to such a fucked-up degree that the existence of one will probably be enough cause to nuke it from orbit.

I don't get, to me a gundamfag who doesn't like beam weapons is like a Star wars fag who hates lightsabers.

Are Gundamfags that bored from the constant milking that they started to turn against one of the hallmarks of the series?

You'd be surprised.

It took three whole publication lines before the new version of the star wars tabletop roleplaying game even let you play as Jedi, and even then even getting a lightsaber is an endgame goal, and people still bitched about them adding jedi to the game.

That's because they won't explain anything at all.

Considering the dainsleif launcher replaces the entire arm of the Graze it was probably a very late development or something that was developed after the Calamity War but banned before present day. I don't see a Gundam frame taking the dainsleif launcher without serious modification. Maybe the valykria frame could do it but it's supposed to be light weight and hard to control, which is why the Graze is more of a ground pounder.

>CW Mobile Suits focus mainly on melee if Dansleifs can trivalise combat
They probably fought in teams or parties like in a game. The Barbatos Lupus fought showed us that even with a Gundam taking everything from the pilot it's still not strong enough to actually fight Hashmal if it had its pluma army. And ranged weaponry is seriously hit or miss in IBOverse and you run out of ammo. So if you want to slay a horde you probably want a group of good fighters. And even if the graze's dainsleif launcher was created back in the Calamity War there's no guarantee it was actually mass produced. For all we know the ones that Rustal has are all that they ever made. It's certainly enough to take down a small fleet but against an army of MA that once wiped out 1/4th of humanity? You'll need more than what Rustal deployed. We'll never know for sure.

They won't explain things that they don't need to explain because they're straightforward as fuck. Whereas IBO's exposition-filled dialogue explains every single little action that happens on screen, insulting your intelligence.

They don't know shit about ELS because /m/ doesn't actually watch mecha, they just bitch about it.

>not some of the most silliest weapons to come out of gundam
Look, I'm neither against beam weapons or silly weapons, nor do I mind tacticool realism in my mecha. However, you have to have a special kind of autism to not see how ridiculous hedge clippers, burst sabers, a jousting lance, a drill lance, and a remote controlled tail are as weapons in comparison to a straight up beam rifle that you know, actually looks like a rifle.

I don't dislike beams and beam swords but I prefer bullets and iron. Still I don't see why we can't have BOTH, and also special moves, like BF

>So what's next for Gundam now that IBO is over?

What were the most successful aspects of IBO?

Now go with that as the main core of the next series.

They did the same thing with this and UC essentially.
>>
>>15400869

Why would it be in Dijeh colors rather than white with accents, which seems to be his personal colors if the Nu is any indication?
>>
>>15401608
Because the Dijeh is vaguely related to the Gelgoog. Not by in-universe design lineage, but it has sort of similar body shape/elements, and also carries a beam naginata.
>>
>>15397035
I am actually ready for Gundam by KyoAni at this point. Just something to break up the garbage streak after 00.
>>
>>15398838
Depends on the staff, really. Not everyone wants to traumatize the kiddy audience.

Yet BFS1 still won't get its OVA, because Nagasaki is on BnH Academia, again. Life isn't fair at times.

>>
>>15401629
Weren't Dijeh's a Rick Dias spin-off, which was a Galbady mashed with Rick Dom legs, and the Galbady is basically an upgrade Gelgoog crossed with a Gyan?
>>
>>15400286
Who was black

>>15401700
The mechanic.

>>15401695
Yes, in universe the databooks and background fluff say that the Dijeh was based off of the Rick Dias which Karaba obtained from the AEUG after the Jaburo drop operation.

Rick Dias was developed by AE themselves, though. It's not related to the Federation's Galbaldy Beta which is an upgraded Galbaldy Alpha.

Yes, Galbaldy Alpha is Gelgoog-Gyan hybrid.

>>15400295
The ELS have a really weird way of moving through space. They don't turn on a dime but holy fuck they are fast. Graham caught the attention of a swarm, then veered off and hit max reverse thrust to a central point, then swept the whole swarm away. You literally cannot let them touch you, so beams must be used. The series uses a good mix of melee and ranged combat.

How about one where the protagonist is actually a character with some development? Oh and while they're at it, some competently written romance. I don't know why these writers struggle so badly with this, it isn't that hard.
