[Mobile Suit Gundam] I wonder if they’ll release a fantasy-themed work with Gundam someday.

Japan Otaku Reviews+

It’s not like SD Gundam; it feels more like the structure of wars from the Universal Century placed into a fantasy world.

2: Japan Otaku Reviews

Like Escaflowne?

3: Japan Otaku Reviews

Project KISHI

4: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx19

Well, I think they might not do it because it could easily become unoriginal or a degradation of Dunbine.

5: Japan Otaku Reviews

The Musha Turn A was like that.

For some reason, Tōhō Fuhai was the antagonist, and Domon was nowhere to be found, while Heero’s mobile suit was Blue Destiny.

6: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx3

At a time when I didn’t think Gundam would become a long-term series, we also had Dunbine and Elgar.

7: Japan Otaku Reviews

I think that making it realistic would create a poor matchup between the MS species and the human species in terms of setting.

In the end, it seems like I’ll end up riding a knight-like robot, and if that’s the case, it might as well just be a regular sci-fi story.

8: Japan Otaku Reviews

It’s like Knight Wing or transforming into a MS-sized Knight Gundam similar to White Knight Chronicles that was on PS3.

9: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

I think SD Gundam Heroes is probably quite similar.

10: Japan Otaku Reviews

Should we make the MS a golem-like magical creature…

11: Japan Otaku Reviews

I want to see people piloting SD Gundams, but probably only I have that demand.

13: Japan Otaku Reviews

On the contrary, a samurai-themed manga called “Muray” was created, but it wasn’t really to my taste.

It’s like the temperature of the picture and the story were different.

14: Japan Otaku Reviews

If I come up with a fantasy project, it seems like it would get absorbed into SD Gundam.

15: Japan Otaku Reviews

It used to be on PS2, didn’t it?

An RPG where you can rearrange the head, arms, and legs like in Medabots.

16: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx11

I did something like a Gundam transfer to another world in Reraise.

17: Japan Otaku Reviews

That doesn’t need any Gundam elements.

Galian Sword

18: Japan Otaku Reviews

If it’s the kind of vibe like Break Blade, I think I could do it.

I have a feeling that it will only become a Turn A with magical power settings.

19: Japan Otaku Reviews

The fantasy-style robot doesn’t quite stand out.

20: Japan Otaku Reviews

Like FSS?

21: Japan Otaku Reviews

Knights & Magic

I have to overcome this.

22: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx2

There is a sense that robots appearing in a world of swords and magic feels out of place.

23: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

The world view of Turn A and G-Reco was also quite elaborate and good.

25: Japan Otaku Reviews

The “Narou” manga about me, who was sold at the lowest price in class, was generally true to that order.

26: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

I think it would be great if there was a new release of Knight Gundam simply.

Is a realistic proportion better?

27: Japan Otaku Reviews

I want to play the Night Gundam games on FC and SFC.

29: Japan Otaku Reviews

But Knights & Magic was interesting…

30: Japan Otaku Reviews

Dunbine

31: Japan Otaku Reviews

It’s a Gunpla, but it feels like it’s in the direction of something like Re:Rise?

32: Japan Otaku Reviews

Are you talking about Gundam Wry?

33: Japan Otaku Reviews

Wasn’t the beginning of Gundam SEQUEL kind of fantasy-like?

34: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx2

I don’t think there’s anything that can’t be done.

35: Japan Otaku Reviews

It just looks like it changed on the surface, but I don’t really have the impression that the story itself is turning out to be very interesting…

36: Japan Otaku Reviews

I guess it feels like a real-type Knight Gundam.

Even in SD, Knight Gundam doesn’t feel like a war.

38: Japan Otaku Reviews

Fantasy with giant robots has pioneers that are just too strong, right?

39: Japan Otaku Reviews

The early part of ∀ felt like that.

41: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx4

The Wataru that’s currently airing is also an otherworldly fantasy.

43: Japan Otaku Reviews

If they were to fight a war in the Universal Century, the Aura Road might be opened.

It seems that we have to fight against a much improved Aura Battler than the ones from the era of the Gregorian calendar.

44: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

What I seek in Gundam is, in a sense, the presence of a machine that is close to the unavoidable emotions of humans that are intertwined with reality, so it has a subtle clash with fantasy…

45: Japan Otaku Reviews

I want to see Gundam Leyadus and Gundam Break Blade too.

48: Japan Otaku Reviews

The first part of Seikoku 1092 was quite an ideal robotic fantasy.

There is no adaptation into visuals, but…

49: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx2

The other world Gundam has been observed in Re:Rise.

50: Japan Otaku Reviews

Here it comes… a new axis following the Build series.

53: Japan Otaku Reviews

In fantasy, you can’t avoid hand-to-hand combat either.

In that case, wouldn’t it be better to differentiate between fantasy and robots? Then fantasy mechs would disappear.

54: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx3

Rerise evokes the feeling of traditional hobby-related contexts.

56: Japan Otaku Reviews

The presence of mobile suits means it is far removed from a sword and magic fantasy…

57: Japan Otaku Reviews

When doing fantasy mechs, they tend to be composed of Western armor imagery, and it often ends up with a few mechs inspired by samurai motifs, which doesn’t really seem to fit with Gundam.

62: Japan Otaku Reviews

If something as crazy as G Gundam can be made, then it’s not impossible to create a fantasy as well.

63: Japan Otaku Reviews

It’s quite common as a sub-element rather than the main character, but you know, fantasy mecha.

64: Japan Otaku Reviews

There are quite a few scenes in Escaflowne that make you wonder how much money was spent, but it didn’t become popular…

65: Japan Otaku Reviews

Even if you can animate a complex design with CG, the design itself seems quite challenging from the start.

66: Japan Otaku Reviews

If you were to do a reincarnation story in the Gundam series, who would you want the protagonist to be?

67: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

Well, fantasy based on ancient civilizations is one of the classics, and I think it can be done easily if we set it in a far future.

71: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx2

If we change the names of the Earth and the Moon to unique ones, it could generally become a fantasy.

72: Japan Otaku Reviews

Modern people who look like medieval nobles or Gundams with a knight-like style, and technological advancements that resemble magic can all be set in a contemporary world view.

75: Japan Otaku Reviews

I feel like there was a work about the reincarnation of Kishiria.

78: Japan Otaku Reviews

If it’s about robot excavation, it would ultimately be the same as Turn A, so isn’t there a need to justify the transformation of the world into one that has something like magic?

79: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

I feel like it will end up just changing in appearance and atmosphere, for better or worse.

The original idea of engaging in visible combat using minnow powder, while single-handedly battling and traveling to various places, gives it a fantasy feel.

80: Japan Otaku Reviews

I think it would be fine to treat MS not as machines but as magical tools of a magical civilization, but whether a fantasy Gundam will be well-received is uncertain.

If I can’t think of anything for the next new work, there might be a slight possibility…

81: Japan Otaku Reviews

Escaflowne has the faces of heroines and female characters…

I had a slight sense of inferiority.

82: Japan Otaku Reviews

If we’re going to launch a new IP for a fantasy robot, we would probably do it with Gundam, but overall, there seems to be a feeling that while the fans’ voices are loud for fantasy robots… it’s like, hmm~

83: Japan Otaku Reviews

But I heard that Dunbine figures are selling really well right now.

84: Japan Otaku Reviews

Is there not much where the battle is properly advancing and turning into a struggle for the country?

86: Japan Otaku Reviews

If we cut off the hands and feet of kids with a lot of magical power for magical energy, it might capture the essence of Gundam and the otherworldly feel.

87: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

Bandai seems unmotivated because they have had past failures in this area.

88: Japan Otaku Reviews

Isn’t it possible to have a Gundam like Starlight?

90: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx3

In Gundam, since the wall of SD is quite big when it comes to fantasy…

93: Japan Otaku Reviews

If you want to do fantasy-like equipment in Gundam, you just have to use Knight Gundam.

96: Japan Otaku Reviews

I didn’t know that Warhee was still continuing its product development.

97: Japan Otaku Reviews

Is there really a need to do it with Gundam? I’m not saying that, though.

Can you capture the unique charm and fun that Gundam offers?

I have to think about it, after all.

98: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx4

I like fantasy robot stories, but I would probably be happier if they did it as an original rather than with Gundam.

99: Japan Otaku Reviews

When considering Gunpla as the main battlefield, I wonder how the knight armor motif fits in?

If you zoom in a lot, it doesn’t look great as a model, and if you don’t zoom in that much, it might not differ much from existing knight-like works.

100: Japan Otaku Reviews

I preferred Lilina’s noble-like formal attire that looked fantasy-like.

101: Japan Otaku Reviews

Well, it wasn’t thought that a lesbian Gundam would come out, so in about 50 years, there will probably be at least one.

102: Japan Otaku Reviews

I liked scenes like the activation of Escaflowne.

I don’t really recommend it to people.

103: Japan Otaku Reviews

I’ve heard that initially, Code Geass was supposed to be a fantasy Gundam set in another world.

104: Japan Otaku Reviews

When it comes to the size of fantasy-like structures, the usual size of MS is way too big.

If you make it smaller to the size, it just becomes even more like an SD Gundam.

105: Japan Otaku Reviews

Even though we’re doing it with Gundam, we ended up creating something that feels like a half-hearted avoidance of Gundam.

In the end, it’s not uncommon to not understand what I wanted to do.

If you’re going to do it, seriously consider making it a series, that’s really the proposition, isn’t it?

108: Japan Otaku Reviews

The size of the Aura Battlers is just about right.

109: Japan Otaku Reviews

If we’re going to do it, we have to at least change this to normal Gundam terminology, right? And we need to avoid just using this as SD Gundam, right?

111: Japan Otaku Reviews

The girl is the main character, transforming into a costume and defeating enemies with a Gundam.

112: Japan Otaku Reviews

A knight from a fantasy world is reincarnated in a sci-fi world with Gundam.

A pilot from a sci-fi world reincarnates into a fantasy robot world.

Which one is better, I wonder?

113: Japan Otaku Reviews

If the differences in the structure of beastmen’s bodies are also reflected in their machines, that might give it an otherworldly feel.

Even if it’s not as extreme as a Zaku with a monkey riding it,

114: Japan Otaku Reviews

Wasn’t it a manga? Based on Inoue’s work.

115: Japan Otaku Reviews

I might do it someday as a work.

I don’t think it will turn into something like a TV series that will be the center of product development at that time.

118: Japan Otaku Reviews

In the SD Gundam universe, there is a series called Mobile Suit series.

Because there are episodes that are extremely close to the fantasy Gundam being mentioned here now.

You really need to showcase a unique charm or it will be tough.

119: Japan Otaku Reviews

Going to another world feels about that way in Build Divers.

121: Japan Otaku Reviews

Is the stage set in another world where Mobile Suits engage in battle, or is it about a Gundam that comes to another world and kicks a horde of goblins or massacres them with a Vulcan, or wrestles with golems?

122: Japan Otaku Reviews

By the way, if we have MS and character designs done by Nagano, it’s bound to sell like hotcakes.

128: Japan Otaku Reviews

It’s quite common to have things like fighting with toys in another world, not just in Re:Rise.

But what you want isn’t that kind of thing, right?

129: Japan Otaku Reviews

Rebirth is something even SD Gundam does.

131: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

The range of fantasy robot stories is too wide.

Dunbine and Rayearth are quite different from each other.

132: Japan Otaku Reviews

It seems that making a Gundam is generally a higher hurdle than creating an original isekai robot.

133: Japan Otaku Reviews

When I think about it, there still hasn’t been a real-type Gundam story with a fantasy robot theme…

135: Japan Otaku Reviews

So, to summarize up to this point, it’s like a mix of Dunbine, Elgueim, and FSS.

137: Japan Otaku Reviews

If you want to do an isekai with Gundam, wouldn’t it be better to reincarnate from the modern era into the Universal Century?

It can’t be a conveniently useful cheat skill like in a fantasy.

That being said, it deviates from the topic of the thread about fantasy.

138: Japan Otaku Reviews

If you’re not particular about piloting a humanoid Gundam, you could summon various creatures, but then it would be cumbersome to control them.

139: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

The name value and design of Gundam can be used! That’s about it.

140: Japan Otaku Reviews

SD is amazing because it features samurai, knights, command war stories, Gundlander, and even reincarnation themes.

143: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

When the title of “Mercury’s Witch” was announced, I thought it wouldn’t be strange to have magical battles with magical sticks.

144: Japan Otaku Reviews

I’d rather have armor that people wear.

But I’m doing it in SD.

146: Japan Otaku Reviews

In terms of elements, the Knight Gundam is already complete with the one that Knight Gundam pilots…

148: Japan Otaku Reviews

When it’s 18 meters long, it’s difficult to get on, so it needs to be about 8 meters…

150: Japan Otaku Reviews

Wasn’t there a Fantasy Gundam in Psychomu?

How about something like Murai, even though it’s Japanese-style?

153: Japan Otaku Reviews

A Gundam that enhances its body by gathering materials like in Monster Hunter?

154: Japan Otaku Reviews

Fantasy and robots are still fantasy, but they don’t mix well because you can’t enter dungeons.

If you don’t adopt an SD form, it will almost be fixed to war stories.

155: Japan Otaku Reviews

It seems that looking at the discussion so far, it’s not impossible to do, but it feels like there are absolutely no benefits to doing it on purpose.

157: Japan Otaku Reviews

Also, the Knight Gundam fits well due to the synergistic effect with the 2D pixel art Dragon Quest-like image, and in many ways, the synergy with visual culture is weak.

But if we’re going to do Fantasy Robo now, it would be better to remake the cavalry edition to make the most of its characteristics.

158: Japan Otaku Reviews

Thanks to magic, Minovsky finally feels relieved.

159: Japan Otaku Reviews

Isn’t cosmic aristocracy okay?
