Most Gundam shows have a somewhat vague first impression, but…

Doesn’t it look cool when it moves?

Because it is not bound by physical laws and can also use fake parses…

>>6

By the way, recreating 2D’s false perspective in 3D is…

I wonder how much it’s used in the robot genre.

The examples you often see are usually characters, so it’s hard to understand.

>>11

It’s easy to see when using the Luger Lance in Fafner, but it’s used quite frequently.

In reality, there is no movement.

(Head spin)

Zeke Axes is generally good.

The red shield is cool.

Even so, I don’t feel like buying it.

Let me buy a Gundam model.

>>14

You can find Zeke Axes on Amazon.

Not reselling, but the one for Amazon sales.

>>18

It’ll arrive in May, but since it’s the regular price, I guess it’s fine…

The right side has a strong construction machinery vibe.

I find it interesting and like that when it becomes a four-eyed creature, it’s hard to recognize it as a face.

Ikuto’s mecha has a default standing pose that’s no good…

Something is vague.

The Turn A is cool when it’s moving too…

It’s not really a compliment since it’s true that anything looks cool when it moves, even Quantum.

The dignity destruction shield is still laughable.

I think red is generally good.

Red is cool, but the heroic color on the right doesn’t suit it at all.

Metal robots have already seen significant price reductions on both sides.

>>24

Isn’t it Pre-Ban?

>>33

If you understand that, then the general public should be able to understand two things.

The 01 Gundam was simply cool.

The face…

On the right, I keep feeling an odd sensation like it’s an Eva’s derivative machine painted in Gundam colors.

>>27

I understand.

But I like the feeling of the construction machinery in the yellow part.

If the face is properly colored in the same way as the original, it looks cool…

The tricolor is actually not that cool.

The white one doesn’t match the eye color.

Even with movement, it was hard to understand with CG.

I recently realized that it feels like two faces, one normal and one upside down, are stuck together.

When people say something looks cool when it moves, they tend to credit the design, but I think it’s really just the animator that’s amazing.

In other words, a standing pose like in the concept art doesn’t suit me at all.

Same type as Turn A.

It might be since Sid Mead that we’ve deviated so far from traditional design.

I can’t say anything because Turn A Gundam is moving and looks cool.

Did they change the color of the main camera here in Zeon?

It has been said numerous times, but I think it’s quite a sense of balance that they kept the coloring close to the original yet did not paint the chin red.

The coloring on the right is really exquisitely creepy.

Even if it’s said to be a parody robot of Gundam that appeared in another anime, I would normally believe it.

I understand that I’m intentionally leaving it out, but even so, I couldn’t recognize this as Gundam.

Is this what it means to be an old type…?

>>44

I also could only see this as a grotesque form similar to Gundam.

That’s why we can trace the movements of Gundam that we’ve seen so many times that we’re bored of it.

I think it’s a direction that strongly confronts you with the idea that it’s a world that’s the same yet different.

I feel like it’s not really broken to the extent of breaking the design.

>>45

It might be thanks to the coloring, but I think the part from the neck down really cares about preserving the original image.

The head design, which interprets the mouth area in a sub-eye-like manner and makes Vulcan quite robust, is truly unique.

>>45

Is this really Gundam after about 20 years?

There’s been a huge increase in Gundam designs like that…

There was already a fourth Gundam.

When it’s extremely up close, it really does look like the face of Gundam.

Somehow, HG is a bit different.

This one is more faithful.

>>49

There are aspects where differences in design and durability occur in current Gundam models, but it cannot be helped.

I feel like Gikax is intentionally changing its shape.

>>49

The HG seems unable to replicate the thinness of those arms because it is small.

Does that mean that since Zeke Axe is all flashy, the old man with the same Gundam type needed to be flashy too?

Still, it doesn’t feel much like Gundam; it really suits the name ◯◯ Demon.

This arrangement is better than the original’s flat feeling; it has more of a heavy machinery vibe.

Every time I hear stories like this, I think that it’s not just that moving is cool, but rather that the movement itself is what is cool.

>>52

It means that it is designed to move properly.

>>55

I can understand saying that about toys, but it’s a different story in two-dimensional lies and anime, so it’s not off-base.

Well, it’s not that I deny that the impression of the thread image can change positively for any reason.

The red bit really looked like an organ and was gross.

I looked at the proposal for Eva and said there’s no way such a creepy robot would sell.

You can enjoy the feeling of being a clueless old sponsor, which is quite a bargain!

>>54

I don’t know what position you think you’re speaking from, but you really have a bad mouth and a bad personality.

White guns are gross, but red guns are normally cool if you keep your eyes wide open.

Depending on the person, some might think it’s gross to look at the toy before the video, and I had a realization while reading the thread without a name.

>>60

In other words, since I often see the design sketches first, my first impressions will generally be similar.

There may certainly be some people who think the thread image is cool just by looking at the design from the beginning.

It was my first time seeing it in motion in a movie…

The first one was even more casually cool.

It might be good to move the toys too.

The three-dimensional objects don’t really resemble each other that exquisitely, and that has happened even in aerials.

Do you want the thread image?

Isn’t it uncool?

Red is cool in a bizarre way.

White is definitely impossible to color.

I think there’s an emphasis on flashy appearance that lacks the accompanying beauty of a weapon.

>>68

Do you understand what the term “genre” means when you say that?

What part of the thread image is appealing to the masses?

The new design of the Zaku is cool, but I think the Gundam is lame.

But the head that was completely turned into a gun turret looked both creepy and cool.

The movement of the animation was too fast compared to the design, so I couldn’t really understand what was happening.

>>73

?

>>74

If you don’t understand the meaning and can’t even read the characters, then just say so.

I think we should start by challenging the idea that beauty as a weapon is just a vague matter of personal preference.

Are you possibly confusing the term “popular appeal” with something like “the mainstream”?

>>76

Whether it actually resonates with the general public is a matter of hindsight, and aiming for an extravagant design with that in mind is a conventional strategy to seek popular appeal.

The addition of special flavors to existing products is the prime example of this.

>>82

Isn’t that just your personal assumption?

Did they say that officially?

>>81

Just go read it a million times.

>>81

I laugh because I can’t read the part about bluffing and deception.

>>85

If they could read properly, they wouldn’t come to such a stupid conclusion that the thread image is just a bluff or a deceptive design.

Barely made a mass of sensors look like a face.

Interpretation of combining it with a Vulcan to make a gun turret.

Making the thighs into tanks and making the legs serve as both posture control thrusters and other functions more understandable.

The intention of the design, such as roll bars for protecting the fists and reinforcing the shoulders, is easy to understand.

The design is attractive as a machine.

What is beauty as a weapon, I wonder?

I think it looks much more like a weapon with a sense of reality than the heroic design of the first generation.

I can understand if it’s heavy machinery, though.

Is that so…?

I guess so…

I think it’s interesting and I like it enough to pre-order model kits.

When I’m told I’m gross, I also think I’m gross, so I can only say yeah, and if you say you dislike me because I’m gross, I can’t argue against that.

An eight-headed Gundam is creepy.

I don’t really understand it well, but I know it in detail; this is what leads to the face-off of F91, so to speak, it’s a full-body face-off state.

Always the same Eva.

When it comes to being cool while moving, it’s the beard.

I just thought, is it Bandai’s intention for the RX-78 to have a more monstrous look while the Zeek Axis has a design that’s closer to the usual Gundam face?

I remember that Aerial had a uniquely feminine face on Mercury, but when it was upgraded, it had the usual Gundam face.

Somehow, the colors of the Federation’s Gundam evoke a sense of caution that reminds me of bees…

The red one feels somehow more calming…

I don’t think there are many things, not just Gundam, that look cool even when they’re moving, despite having a somewhat unappealing appearance.

The red uncle can be seen as some kind of MS, but it looks really off before painting.

Zeke Ax is not the usual Gundam face.

I love how it was twitching when it restarted; it felt so creepy and weird.

If something looks cool when it moves, it’s because most things will turn out that way when they are animated, so it’s hard to evaluate the quality of the design unless it makes good use of the design itself.

Moving coolly is the path taken by Turn A…

I think the charm and strength of a beard lies more in how it suits the everyday scene of hanging laundry than in its coolness during combat.

Just thinking about a high school girl piloting it somehow makes it look cute.

>>107

Response from Ziek Axus

Is it stuff from Inber?

Your face is too creepy.

The white one was slightly hunched over when it started walking after getting up, which added to its creepiness.

It’s mysterious how there are moments when it feels like this is Gundam, right?

I don’t even know what 기준 I felt that way.

>>113

If it has horns and two eyes,

It wasn’t just two.

The design of Gundam is ridiculous the moment a bald guy starts growing a beard.

I feel like they were already taking quite a few risks with Z Gundam.

>>116

Rather, I think both are the establishment or reaffirmation of Gundam-like symbols.

It’s not like things like the Hazel or the Sumo were accepted as main Gundams.

If your face is normal, you wouldn’t be scared while peeking at the wooden horse.

I feel like the white one intentionally makes its head movements creepy, but since it turned red, it has felt really cool.

>>118

I really love the scene where they land and stand up in the refugee camp.

The bottom left looks cool even in the photo.

White feels unsettled because yellow is present in various places, so even when it moves, it might feel weird.

Compared to white, the yellow on the red is more of a standout point.

It feels like they are intentionally showcasing the skeletal structure, including the face.

What makes it feel scary in the anime is also the fact that the BGM when this guy goes on a rampage is mainly like the music from a horror game when you’re being chased by a pursuer…

However, Zieg Ax was cornered by the military police Zaku in front of the airlock and looked a bit alluring.

I’m recognizing it as Gundam because it comes with the name and setting attached.

If presented without any context, it might be interpreted as something else painted in Gundam colors.

It feels like it’s designed with red as a premise.

The tricolor makes it twice as creepy.

I wonder why the eye color is changing.

I wonder if it’s the balance when it’s changed to red.

The whiteness feels even creepier because it’s a familiar movement and familiar coloring.

It may be due to the influence of the psychic network in the setting, but Zeke Axes has actions that are quite girlish, doesn’t it?
