There are likely limits to what can be done because there are few episodes.
What are you going to do if you don’t have serious developments in Gundam?
FLCL and Top 2 are both 6 episodes long, so it’s not short enough to worry about.
>>2
Both of them don’t really have a story, do they?
>>8
There’s no story in the top 2…
It’s tough for the grandpas who were the main staff on the TV version of Eva 30 years ago to handle episodes like 24.
The naive idea that having a longer size means you can do anything is
It’s probably concentrated and condensed.
It’s already a series tradition for someone to die in Gundam, making it gloomy.
>>6
On the contrary, I want to see serious works that do not rely on the fact that people’s deaths are becoming cheaper.
What good does it do to worry about the runtime when you don’t even understand a development that hasn’t even started yet?
Isn’t it more the everyday part that will disappear?
It’s not something like a division or anything.
It’s not a split.
>>11
It clearly says all 12 episodes.
The Earth was shit.
This is generally how it is, Gundam.
I think it will become 12 episodes after doing things like eating, dating, and everyday life parts.
>>15
There are so many things to do…!
I would be happy if there were standalone episodes that don’t affect the main story.
It’s better if it’s shorter like Braveburn.
I was going to say that if you expect no serious developments in episode 12, you must not have watched anime for about 30 years.
Thinking back, 30 years ago was the peak of OVAs that concluded in 6 episodes.
The continuation will be in the theatrical version (a few years later)!
I’ve seen announcements in other anime where, right after the 12 episodes of the first season, a second season is immediately confirmed.
In episode 12, it might not be impossible, but I feel that the world expects things to continue a bit longer and to earn money from surrounding content.
Well, I think it’s a division.
>>24
If it’s a split, shouldn’t you say it’s a split from the beginning?
Before the broadcast, Mercury’s time was already divided.
Since it’s not explicitly stated, it’s better to approach it with the assumption that it will end with episode 12 to minimize disappointment.
>>37
There are quite a few patterns where it was decided from the very beginning, as mentioned in the final episode.
I don’t know if they’ll do that with Gundam.
The first season of Mercury was relatively well-balanced for a school Gundam.
It’s short for a Gundam, but long for a work by Director Tsurumaki…
Well, since a war hasn’t even started, there’s not much to do anyway.
If it’s too long, it loses tension, so a shorter one is easier to recommend and better.
For those who haven’t seen it yet, episode 12 might be the best introduction to Gundam.
The second season of Zike Ax is considered a separate entity from the full 12 episodes.
The director’s favorite Gundam works, such as 08th MS Team and F91, are also short in duration.
Yonezu, who saw the storyboard for the entire episode, reportedly burst into laughter.
Furthermore, the strangely unsettling lyrics of the theme song I wrote.
>>32
Do you know all the episodes, Genmai?
>>32
Is someone flying while spinning?
By episode 3, there is a possibility of having conquered the clan battle.
I think it’s highly likely that the split-cour format was decided from the beginning, just that they didn’t mention the second season in advance.
Perhaps in the future, the Gundam series may adopt a format where various titles are released more frequently, even if each series is only one cour long, but it’s still uncertain.
There are plenty of serious anime in a single season, you know…
If it turns into a story about a resurgent war, twelve episodes won’t be enough, so it might end with dark conspiracies instead of war.
A year feels long and stretches out, but a single season tends to be crammed and often ends up being awkward.
I want Machu to die in battle…!
To be honest, I think even in the beginning part, Gundam fans will burst into laughter.
I’m changing various methods this time, so I can’t imagine how it will turn out.
If it’s just about preventing a big fight and wrapping things up, it might be manageable even in one season.
As long as there is no official statement or anything, dividing is nothing more than a wish.
It’s an OVA, but since Mobile Suit Gundam 0080 has 6 episodes, 0083 has 13 episodes, and 08th MS Team has 11 episodes, it should be doable.
Conversely, does that mean it’s a story that can fit within a single season?
About 2 episodes out of 12 in the movie part?
>>48
Episode 4
>>52
If we don’t add quite a few more scenes, won’t we only have about two episodes’ worth?
>>58
By the way, it seems that there won’t be any additional scenes compared to the advance screening version.
>>52
The beginning part won’t be broadcast, so won’t they pilot the Gundam in episode 1 and be in Clavah in episode 2?
You can just continue with Zeke Akusuzetto or something.
There must be quite a few people who almost burst out laughing the moment Char appeared in the movie.
Was there a split announcement for 00 and Iron-Blooded Orphans?
>>51
Just before the end of season 00
The beginning part is structured differently from the movie, but I wonder how they will present it.
>>53
Are we going to summarize it in three minutes as originally planned?
Give me 4 cour.
They will probably talk solely about Gundam and children, without discussing topics like war.
Still, it’s about the length of a movie, so we can do anything.
Well, we’ll know something when the official announcement comes out, or at least when the BD information is released.
Just because a character or story is long doesn’t mean it’s good.
It’s far better than just taking detours and cramming.
Shall we do the weekly Giga X Core Fighter docking training?
There’s no way there are only 12 episodes after spending that much time and money.
There are two seasons.
Depending on the response, it seems we might do something in the theater again.
(A scene where Nyann is eating ramen, cut for timing reasons)
With Gundam, even two cours feels too short and makes me want more…
>>66
Just the fact that it’s Gundam means it will be thoroughly enjoyed for many years to come, so it’s better if the base story for drawing out the essence is on the longer side…
It’s sad to see that there are still people who misunderstand it as Anno’s Gundam.
>>67
When it comes to a series as big as Gundam, even people who don’t know much want to join the conversation using familiar words.
If the One Year War part was originally intended as an prologue, then it might not be separate from episode 12.
Even if it were composed of 12 episodes, I think a second season would come out if it’s popular.
Popular Gundam series that have produced a second season outside of the Universal Century generally turn out to be subpar…
>>71
Well, a sequel to the Universal Century wasn’t needed either.
>>76
Mr. Tobita’s response.
Since the things I want to depict are from a generation that does not know war, I wonder if the story will not be too much of a period piece.
I feel like Machu is tumbling down more and more.
I’m glad I don’t have the stamina to watch two cours.
The shorter it is, the smaller the story becomes, inevitably.
>>75
There are only 6 episodes, but the top and top 2 have become really grand in scale.
>>81
That’s a super small story.
It seems there isn’t enough time to deal with the factional issues of the Zabi family.
Maybe it will all come to an end after an event happens on Earth that somehow satisfies Bull.
Instead of being split, the sequel GQuuuuuuZ started just like that.
The movie is an edited version of the first three stories.
I’m hoping that since they are really pushing the Mav elements, they will also properly resolve the stories of not just Machu and Shuji but also the older guys.
It seems like Z doesn’t even know how much they were criticized back then.
Isn’t the sequel to the Universal Century much worse instead?
>>86
Is UC the best-selling in the series?
>>92
That’s the one that’s the worst, isn’t it?
If you make a sequel to something that ended beautifully, it’s usually going to turn out poorly…
Mobile Suit Gundam has a severe slump in the middle, so actually two cours would be enough.
Z and ZZ feel like they were saved because of the good robots.
>>90
ZZ seemed to have been overlooked until it was picked up by UC.
>>94
Robo was quite popular.
>>94
You’re familiar with the map weapons in Super Robot Wars, right?
>>115
I hope the winged Gundam dies.
>>117
Ah, the wings of light.
In one season, we can annihilate the Sorebi or crush tomatoes.
If anything, Garma will scatter and Layla will also scatter.
It’s a boy meets girl story in NT, but I wonder if things won’t turn out badly as long as they aren’t hostile?
Two cours are not enough to depict a large-scale war.
>>95
I personally think it’s a company that seems like it would do something like showing a moon that is about two-thirds covered, accompanied by a huge war!
Having fewer characters ≠ having a smaller scale
It will run for one season.
I think there will be various activities for Gundam without long breaks since Hathaway is coming in the fall.
>>97
Can Hathaway do it this year…?
>>102
I don’t understand anything…
>>106
Then why did you say autumn…?
>>97
Really?
Can you really do Hathaway?
It’s nice that it finishes in one season; it’s easy to watch.
If you mean alternate universe stories in the Universal Century, then it’s things like 0083.
I’m watching the storyboard for every episode of “Genmai Bōshi.”
No matter how you struggle, it’s a world where a big war is coming, so a small-scale one is fine, right…?
With UC, I can’t tell if it’s a unicorn or the Universal Century.
If it’s going to be completed in one season, it would be a pattern where a war doesn’t happen in the story.
>>105
It’s not about rebuilding the main house of Gundam, but more like being allowed to build on the edge of the property; from Anno’s comments, it seems to declare that while it is an alternate timeline of the Universal Century, it is not a work that greatly expands on it.
It’s understandable that no matter how many seasons there are, the beginning part will just be treated as something the production team wanted to do…
>>107
It’s not so much the production team as it is Director Anno…
Since 0083 is airing at episode 13.
Well, I’ll just watch it thinking it’s split up on my own.
Hathaway will be next year at the earliest.
There can also be a pattern where there are 12 episodes followed by a movie.
“Make it a Counterattack Machu or something.”
It seems like there’s no time to dig deeper into things like “meow.”
If Scirocco appears in the last few minutes, peace will be promised in the Zeke Axis world.
I don’t even know if there is a big goal.
It’s probably not about standing at the top in clan battles and making a huge profit, and it doesn’t seem like a war will break out either.
Considering the appeal of FLCL and Top 2,
Rather, I’m not worried because Director Tsurumaki is skilled at packing everything he wants to do into a short runtime.
What is going to happen to Hathaway…
It’s fine as long as it’s interesting.
Clearly, if it’s something rushed, then it’s fine to cause a commotion at that time.
Wing Gundam!
In the unused ideas for the MSO completed work, there was a plan to depict the propulsion system for atmospheric entry in Episode 5, “Ariosto’s Flight,” which was to involve Sindonaseka. For all atmospheric entries, five materials made of flexible film and curtain material were intended for the entire body. The graphic novel “Tama” uses boat material instead of special film.
It can be expected that it will end at most in a skirmish.
Does it end around the point where the soldier is knocked down with a hit?
I wonder if the TV series being only one season is because it was made as a small story from the beginning, or if it’s because Sunrise is busy with various movies and other projects.
In other words, among the threads without a name, the entire 6 episodes of “Poké Wars” weren’t serious…
You probably use one episode for ramen and one episode for massage.
If it’s 12 episodes, it feels like things will get pretty busy.
You’re forgetting to make the background gray.
It’s important how many episodes will be absorbed by the movie part…
The top two really skip over the passage of time quite dramatically, don’t they?
>>136
I realized after writing that I had skipped a few years for the top 1.
>>141
Haven’t we skipped about a hundred million years?
The story, both in terms of direction and its historical setting, feels more like an OVA, which is quite satisfactory.
Beginning all cuts…!
>>138
It has been said from the beginning.
>>140
How long are you going to be swayed by false information?
Honestly, in recent years, Gundam on TV is often praised if it’s within a single season, and I think it might actually be just the right length.
Believe in the staff who achieved something amazing with a minus one trillion two hundred million degrees in the top two.
>>142
Well, in the first place, that world is filled with ether in space…
>>153
So, the shockwave from the Super Inazuma Kick can also reach space monsters that are not directly hit, making widespread annihilation possible, right?
It’s made in a way that can be understood even with just the beginning cuts, right?
>>143
The director mentioned that initially, the plan was to only include the scene where Char steals the Gundam in the opening.
In the discussion about whether to insert fragmented scenes of the One Year War throughout the work, Yamashita suggested that it might be better to do it as a long feature, and Anno agreed, as mentioned in the pamphlet.
If the pacing continues like the advanced screenings of episodes 2 and 3, it seems like it won’t expand as much as I expected, which is disappointing.
>>145
Do you really think it’s better to expand after watching the last two TV series?
>>149
Isn’t it strange to say that it’s better not to spread?
It’s about one episode fewer than 0083, so the staff should be able to accomplish what they want to do.
I like the pace of about 12 episodes.
When everyday scenes or romantic conflicts are inserted, it starts to get tiresome.
In the final episode, everyone defeats Char, who suddenly appears from a rift in space-time, and that’s the end.
Are you not going to air Beginning on TV?
>>152
It seems that they will not release it in the same form as the preview version.
>>156
When connected, I wonder if it will take the form of a recollection scene that becomes a single beginning.
The internal conflict of the Sabi family seems to be something that could happen in a side story.
During the main story, it feels like hearing something from the outfield about how it turned out that way.
Conversely, if it runs for two cours, the themes become scattered.
The production side seems to be getting chaotic.
There might be GQuuuuuuXZ…
>>157
Wasn’t it already the era of Z?
I only need the information that Zeon is looking for a red Gundam and a weird-helmeted Char.
I wonder if Beginning will come to Amazon Prime.
>>159
I think it’s like a full release of the Gundam series, so I expect it to come.
Speaking of which, Chico also had a time slip with only consciousness like Banaji.
I think I’ll go for a subscription and a guncha beginning.
It seems that model kits will be released regularly.
>>163
It seems like Bandai will continue to create plastic models of machines they’ve whimsically fabricated.
>>177
In other words, are you presenting the Barzam, Denan Ge, and Dikitus from the Z Gundam world?
>>177
The black Zeke Axis No. 2 and the golden Zeke Axis No. 3…
>>192
The only thing fabricated is money!
If you’re selling Gundam models, you’ll probably do a second season with a new mobile suit.
The TV series being available on Amazon Prime Video for streaming the fastest is a relief.
I think it would look nicer if it’s put together in a shorter span given the style of color (Gaina), so it might be fine.
I played the beginning, but isn’t the One Year War subplot unrelated to the main story?
>>169
The content of episode 1 seems to already be related to the beginning.
It seems there won’t be a successor model either.
It seems that Bandai Namco is currently following a policy where showing their works widely leads to better results, and they are quite proactive in streaming.
The main subject is certainly Machu, and I think the length is sufficient.
I’m very curious about how they will conclude the story prepared for the world where Zeon won.
>>175
Unleash infinite content development in the ZEEKAXIS timeline!!
The reason why the green uncle is like that is packed in the beginning.
This screening is the only one where you can see the advance screening version, and Anno’s comments will be included in the bonus booklet.
Please provide the Japanese text you would like me to translate.
The statement “The beginning part cannot be seen on TV!” is spreading as an extravagant claim.
>>178
Tsurumaki Na
>>183
I just checked and it was indeed Director Tsurumaki, sorry.
Considering the position of the First’s IF story, it actually seems more natural to have a one-cour length.
The beginning is probably just an exclusive of some streaming service anyway.
Even if the anime ends with episode 12, I want them to continue with Zeke Ax’s MSV.
If I have two hours, I can basically tell most of the story.
I have concerns about whether Director Tsurumaki can handle two or four cours with color.
It might be reassuring that it’s short.
Now that you mention it, this director usually manages to wrap things up in about 6 episodes in past works…
>>187
It’s not the type to spread things out wide from the beginning.
Director Tsurumaki mentioned, “When the company received the offer, there was no specification of Another Universal Century or Alternative, but I think it was probably assumed that it would be done in Alternative (non-Universe Century),” which I found interesting.
Since F91 is about 2 hours long, that would be roughly equivalent to 6 episodes of a TV anime.
I think those who bought the more expensive brochure have read the interview stating that the One Year War part was produced for the TV series, so they won’t be fooled.
I thought it was a 2-cour series, but there’s no sequel?
It feels like a pretty huge furoshiki.
In other words, could there be side stories that prevent the Federation’s Gundam redevelopment plan, or side stories aimed at stopping the crazy remnants of the Federation’s terrorism, or even side stories that validate the Federation’s bizarre weapons?
Will Nyann be able to find happiness in episode 12…?
>>199
Is it better to be alive or to face a fate worse than death?
It’s rare to have only 12 episodes…
I wonder if they won’t be doing any sequels in the future.
>>200
Yes, yes, so much, so much.
>>200
Is it really going to air for three years for 12 cour?
>>200
Isn’t it way too long…?
I think the Zegakusu itself will be somewhat cohesive, but there is a possibility that Bandai Namco will decide that by using “Kirakira” we can do a lot within the Universal Century multiverse!
Aren’t we going to tell a story that’s utterly serious and packed tightly?
If you make a sequel poorly, it will end up like the sequel to FLCL.
This topic is already old-fashioned, isn’t it…
