[Mobile Suit Gundam] I wonder if there was someone like Tarō Okamoto in the Universal Century…

Otaku Review Image

TV Movie I Movie III ORIGIN ORIGIN Anime

1: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/27(Tue)17:03Yeahx16

Zionism Architecture

2: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/27(Tue)17:04

Was it treated so casually in the movie too?

3: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/27(Tue)17:05Yeahx14

In that case, I can only think they should just create it from scratch, this original anime.

4: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/27(Tue)17:06Yeahx2

I wonder if there was someone like Taro Okamoto in the Universal Century…What is this?

7: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/27(Tue)17:08

>>4I asked an up-and-coming contemporary artist for a design!! I think I would be at a loss if this were presented.

8: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/27(Tue)17:08Yeahx9

>>4I’ve seen someone who doesn’t know Tarō Okamoto for the first time.

19: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/27(Tue)17:12Yeahx16

>>8You don’t know Taro Man, huh…

22: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/27(Tue)17:14Yeahx28

>>8It’s you!

5: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/27(Tue)17:06

I wonder what it’s like with the Zeke Axis.
I don’t think it’s become as ridiculous as the origin.

6: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/27(Tue)17:07Yeahx7

The Demon Castle of the Zeon Aliens

9: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/27(Tue)17:08

The TV version is amazing, isn’t it?
When I was a child, I vaguely thought that something like this might exist somewhere, but it didn’t.

10: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/27(Tue)17:09

There may have been facade craftsmen like Kengo Kuma…

11: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/27(Tue)17:10Yeahx8

It has been around since the colonial era, so it is not in the style of the Zabi family.

12: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/27(Tue)17:10

No Eyes 08 Edition
No Eyes 08 Edition

13: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/27(Tue)17:11Yeahx2

But Alma-chan seems to like it…

14: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/27(Tue)17:11Yeahx1

Otaku Review Image

Lal family’s private residence, Daikun family’s private residence, Zabi family’s private residence, Zum City royal government building.

15: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/27(Tue)17:11

It might have been some kind of attraction, like Texas Colony.

16: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/27(Tue)17:11Yeahx1

In addition to this, designs will occasionally come out that make you think, do you guys want to be villains? So this is not the only place.

17: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/27(Tue)17:11Yeahx2

What happened in the anime, ORIGIN…?

18: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/27(Tue)17:12Yeahx2

When looking at Soviet buildings, it starts to feel like even something like this isn’t that outlandish.

21: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/27(Tue)17:13Yeahx9

Changing roles many times, it will remain as a valuable historical heritage for future generations.
It also means that Zoom City is a town far from the flames of war.

23: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/27(Tue)17:14Yeahx1

Zion alien’s secret base

24: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/27(Tue)17:14Yeahx4

Why is Daikun’s house a Shinmei-style?

25: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/27(Tue)17:14

Isn’t this just not Zabi’s style?
Wasn’t it Deggin or Deggin’s dad who led it?

26: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/27(Tue)17:14

Zumu City is a city of peace…

27: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/27(Tue)17:14

What happened to the origin anime?
It seems like a runaway biotechnology.

32: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/27(Tue)17:16

>>27It’s too flat to begin with.
What I wanted wasn’t depth.

28: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/27(Tue)17:15

Well, in the case of Russian constructivism, they don’t create faces…
Zumu City is going too far down its own path.

29: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/27(Tue)17:15Yeahx1

As expected, it’s difficult to give this any kind of plausible consistency.

30: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/27(Tue)17:15

Mr. Daikun’s place is stylish.

31: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/27(Tue)17:16Yeahx3

The increased thickness in the front and back of the origin is nice, isn’t it?

33: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/27(Tue)17:16

Origin anime is already the last dungeon, huh?

34: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/27(Tue)17:17Yeahx2

Space Century version colonial architectural style

35: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/27(Tue)17:17

This appearance clearly looks like the stage for the final battle of the protagonists.
It’s the one where an earthquake happens, and it keeps unfolding into a giant robot that becomes the final boss.

36: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/27(Tue)17:17

If it becomes a post-war peace museum, I want it to be spacious…

37: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/27(Tue)17:18

Why did it become the Great Sky Dragon when it was originated…

39: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/27(Tue)17:19

>>37Cool, right?

38: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/27(Tue)17:18Yeahx2

👓️ (I can’t believe this city was the headquarters of the country that started the great war.)

40: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/27(Tue)17:19Yeahx1

It should be considered that there existed some kind of style, such as for the interior of Musai.

41: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/27(Tue)17:19Yeahx3

The design of Musai’s bridge and the awareness of being evil Zeon aliens is really good, isn’t it?

42: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/27(Tue)17:20Yeahx2

Let’s try doing something random.

43: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/27(Tue)17:20

As a symbol of space migration, it should not be constrained by existing styles on Earth as much as possible, and it should symbolize the unique gravity gradient of the colony.

44: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/27(Tue)17:20

I want a character that can fight in this area to appear soon in games like Exvs or G Gen.
It’s definitely going to be exciting!

45: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/27(Tue)17:21Yeahx3

Jumping into a super serious story.
Jumping into a super serious story.

The agreed-upon military intervention thus came to a close, and Zum City welcomed the end of the war as diamond dust swirled around.

48: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/27(Tue)17:22

>>45The one next to the face is just too funny with an interpretation like a booster.

46: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/27(Tue)17:21Yeahx4

Daikun is also quite bad.
It seems like a strangely extravagant cult in the countryside.

47: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/27(Tue)17:21Yeahx4

>>46At least the Daikun from the Origin timeline is that kind of person, so I believe he has intentions.

49: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/27(Tue)17:22

It has depth and is creepy!

50: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/27(Tue)17:22

Starting from the concept of Newtype…

51: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/27(Tue)17:23Yeahx1

It probably just turned into an ordinary building when it was modified for the movie, like the bridge in Falmer.
Because no one touched it, Zionism architecture was established.

52: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/27(Tue)17:24Yeahx2

“Capital of the Evil Empire”
“Villain Spaceship Bridge”

53: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/27(Tue)17:24

The feeling of trying to figure something out but ultimately failing is amusing.

54: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/27(Tue)17:25

The anime origin lodge is already something that moves and transforms at the level of parts like a live-action Transformer, right?

55: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/27(Tue)17:26Yeahx1

Be good, be beautiful, be comfortable.

56: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/27(Tue)17:26

It’s strange not to have art in a zero-gravity or low-gravity environment in space.

57: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/27(Tue)17:27

The origin anime has a Sagrada Familia feel.

58: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/27(Tue)17:27

If you think of it as something like Gaudí’s architecture, then there is indeed a line.

59: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/27(Tue)17:28

Goddamn.

60: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/27(Tue)17:28

I thought the design was gradually becoming more timid compared to the TV version.
Suddenly, the hazard level skyrocketed and I burst out laughing.

61: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/27(Tue)17:29

Space Noids seem to like fortress-like buildings.

62: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/27(Tue)17:30

There’s normally gravity inside the colony, right…?

63: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/27(Tue)17:30

At that time, I probably didn’t think deeply and just felt it was a castle of evil.

66: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/27(Tue)17:31

>>63It seems that the voice of regret from the person who designed this remains.

69: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/27(Tue)17:32

>>66Is the original idea a bald guy?!

80: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/27(Tue)17:38

>>66Moreover, the suspicious design was created by Yoshiyuki Tomino. He himself has expressed regret, saying, “I drew it rather carelessly.”

64: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/27(Tue)17:30

It’s like losing if you erase the face part.

65: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/27(Tue)17:30

Well, they must be using a lightweight material.

68: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/27(Tue)17:32

>>65It might be made of Lunachitanium.

67: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/27(Tue)17:31

Seriously?

70: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/27(Tue)17:32

Is the first official parody of Zoom City from the head bug mansion?

71: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/27(Tue)17:32

I heard through the grapevine that the original final episode was supposed to feature a battle where they piloted this super large MA that Gihren transformed.

72: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/27(Tue)17:33

If there were a few less spikes… and the eyes too.

73: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/27(Tue)17:33

It would have been better if only Char and Kycilia were wearing those weird helmets.

74: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/27(Tue)17:34

The spikes on Dozle’s shoulder are a mystery; is that Dozle’s personal preference, or are there other officers wearing different sizes?

75: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/27(Tue)17:34

If you’re told that with the technology to build a colony, you can do anything, then I guess that’s true.

76: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/27(Tue)17:35

I feel it’s good that the people of the universe are starting to distance themselves from Earth’s sensations.

77: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/27(Tue)17:36

Why do aliens like strange decorations when it comes to nobility?

78: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/27(Tue)17:36

Otaku Review Image

“Transform the ‘Zumu City Royal Office Building’ into a pen stand! Get your hands on a symbol of the Zionism cultural movement! Made of zinc alloy (approximately 290g for the main body) *Pens are not included. *The product in the image is under development and may differ from the actual product. *Pen insertion dimensions: approximately diameter 11mm x H17mm ©Sotsu・Sunrise sun-star stationery co. ltd.”

79: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/27(Tue)17:37Yeahx1

It’s terrible that it’s not a residence but a government building.
I really hate coming to work here.

87: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/27(Tue)17:40

>>79I understand the feelings of people who think the city’s office became oddly stylish after the renovation.

81: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/27(Tue)17:38

Well, but people with strange ideologies gradually start to diverge in their design sense, right?

82: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/27(Tue)17:38

This is really great…

83: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/27(Tue)17:39

It’s a strange era, so we should expect more strange things to emerge.

84: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/27(Tue)17:39

It seems difficult to move if the office is on a higher floor.

85: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/27(Tue)17:39Yeahx1

Well, the sense of the Universal Century is probably different.

96: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/27(Tue)17:42

>>85The naming sense is different, too.

86: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/27(Tue)17:39

However, from now on, there will be no designs like this anywhere.
I was just high on the fact that we created a new land called the colony.
They probably hadn’t considered the actual operation at all.

88: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/27(Tue)17:40Yeahx1

This
Falmer’s Bridge
Zakrello

89: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/27(Tue)17:41

Is it going to remain forever?
I feel like there were slightly different shapes in Hasegawa’s manga too.

113: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/27(Tue)17:55

>>89It has become a war museum in Kurobongo.
It had become a fortress for the dictator in Dust.
It’s breaking a little more every time it comes out.

90: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/27(Tue)17:41

Kishiria’s Tibe was kind of strange too…

91: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/27(Tue)17:41

The origin doesn’t look entirely out of place in Gothic style.

92: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/27(Tue)17:42

It seems like it would become popular if a famous rapper were to endorse it.

93: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/27(Tue)17:42

I love this sense of helplessness.

94: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/27(Tue)17:42

It seems like the thickness of the origin is too much and it’s taking time to build, but did no one remain calm?

97: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/27(Tue)17:42

>>94In being particular about culture, it could be said that they were rather proactive.

95: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/27(Tue)17:42

If the foundation is about the size of a baseball field, most of it could be underground, and the tower part might just be like a monument.

98: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/27(Tue)17:43

It’s like the vibe of Mazinger and stuff.

99: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/27(Tue)17:43

I’m hoping that they can somehow manage to release a GQ version as well.

100: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/27(Tue)17:43

I think it would have been safe to pretend it never happened by the time of the movie.

101: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/27(Tue)17:43Yeahx1

A nice design that shaped the spirit of Zeon.

102: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/27(Tue)17:43

Seeing the art style up to this point makes me excited that I might be able to see the latest version in 2023 with Ziku Axis.

103: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/27(Tue)17:44

The city hall of Tenri is a little strange... right?
The city hall of Tenri is a little strange… right?

104: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/27(Tue)17:44

I wonder if things like oni-gawara and shishi lions have been strangely revived.

105: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/27(Tue)17:44

I want to see something harder and bigger than Izuma’s building.

106: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/27(Tue)17:47

The final boss of Geeks Ax is Perfect Zumu City.

107: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/27(Tue)17:52

I’m excited because there’s a chance to depict the Zeon government building in the Reiwa era, but it hasn’t come yet.

108: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/27(Tue)17:52

Did you also have the sun ball?

109: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/27(Tue)17:53

In other words, if the first Gundam hadn’t been canceled, Zom City would have transformed into a super giant MA!!

110: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/27(Tue)17:53

Isn’t this the kind of thing that boosts your spirits at work?

127: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/27(Tue)18:00

>>111I enjoyed reading it, but I have a feeling that Kiziria’s love for the Kyle faction’s reformists clashes directly with today’s broadcast of Ziekaxes.

112: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/27(Tue)17:54

Let’s just gloss over it as modern architecture.
Besides the Zum house, are there any houses like those of Le Corbusier in the Universal Century?

114: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/27(Tue)17:55

There was definitely something strange about the interior of the battleship’s deck, right?

115: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/27(Tue)17:55

But there were buildings like this in the communist bloc, right?

118: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/27(Tue)17:58

>>115From the moment you put on a face, it’s not brutalism or constructivism or anything like that…

116: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/27(Tue)17:56

There is a slight connection to the brutalist architecture of the former Soviet Union.

120: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/27(Tue)17:58

>>116Concrete houses are nice, aren’t they?

117: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/27(Tue)17:57

The ruins on the east side are quite charming, aren’t they?
Once the situation in Russia stabilizes, I want to go see various things.

119: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/27(Tue)17:58

It seems like there was a temporary trend of aiming for designs that are impossible on the ground in low-gravity colonies!
Focusing on efficiency seems like it would quickly become outdated.

121: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/27(Tue)17:58

In outer space, biological and demon-like designs may appear reassuring.

122: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/27(Tue)17:58

If something like this really exists, then isn’t it fine for Zumm City to exist too?
If something like this really exists, then isn’t it fine for Zumm City to exist too?

124: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/27(Tue)17:59

>>122Compared to the appearance of Zoom City, it’s rather plain.

123: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/27(Tue)17:59

“It’s just an excuse for someone to go mad and create as part of modern art.”

125: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/27(Tue)18:00

I honestly think it’s gone too far with the adaptation, as they worked hard to keep the face at a reasonable size in the manga, but in the animation, everything is being overrun by the face.

126: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/27(Tue)18:00

Perhaps the asymmetry is also a subtle point of obsession.

128: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/27(Tue)18:00

In reality, authoritarian states tend to create intimidating statues or construct powerful-looking buildings to display their authority, so it may not be that strange.

129: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/27(Tue)18:00

Since a colony won’t be hidden by the horizon, it might be surprisingly good to make it stand out and continue to exude an intimidating presence.

130: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/27(Tue)18:02

“You’ll be assigned to the thorn on the far right starting tomorrow,” they say.

131: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/27(Tue)18:02

It’s okay for a building to have a face, isn’t it?
Taro Okamoto also says.

132: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/27(Tue)18:02

The face on the building may be an extension of the nose art of a fighter jet.
