Character design that missed the point of Gundam aside, I wished this for style of depiction for Gundam for years. It is true that depicting toys in lowlights condition would not look as good, but it can be. I recently came around to read The Origin to see Yasuhiko Yoshikazu's vision and got hit my a wave of nostalgia that makes my hands shake back in the day. The dark, heavy tone, heavy metal sci-fi style of the 80s and 90s were the reason why I fall in love with the genre. It instantly sends me back to the first time I entered Armored Core 2 and the Core started moving. That heavy atmosphere of controlling a giant mechanised machine, blowing up others, a metallic terror, just clicks. AC6 left much to be desired, atmosphere and storywise, but the dark, heavy mechanised mood of the trailer was very IG mecha and it was just, glorious. Gundam with that sort of mood with its anti-war tone would fit right in, next to the usual beautiful classic "anime" style depiction. They have tried it many times, but they should have just went full balls to the walls like this during the edgy early 2000s era. Seed was iconic in its own ways, but I have to admit AC2 and 3 made me liked MS IGLOO more. Even that could have been even more grimy and mechanical. Having an even more brutal and tense Igloo coming out on the aftermath of Fallujah would have been brutal.
@@Peasham I’ve explained this replying to others below, but here goes. The original 79 Gundam had a heavy emphasis on anti-chauvinism, it was very cynical towards the military and militarism in general despite selling them as cool toys, which was what made the franchise stood out in my opinion (mecha was not a new genre in 79). An important part of the core concept was the death and conversion of individualism that’s fetishised into devotion for the military. Family, connection, love and all of that are used by the military as weapons at any place, any time, any cost. That’s why even though Gundam is iconic, the characters design even in newer series always remain rather generic, except for the very select few, and not necessary the “good guys”. Char for instance, stood out because of his iconic masked look. The reason why he’s “allowed” certain leeway is because of military reason. He’s an ace, his image served as a weapon to inspire the generic soldiers to die for the glory of battle. That’s extremely cynical view of the military practice. It actually addresses something uncomfortable about the US military that non-Americans often observe, such as in Starship Trooper. Decorative items and R&R things that are allowed are only there to distract the soldiers from the grim reality of militarism, making the military seem more “friendly”, rather than the monolithic, uncaring meat grinder that it is. That’s why having freely piercing, tattooed with cool haircut, “strong female” leaders figures work against the very idea that Gundam was build on. It’s hard to see that cynicism mentioned above if every other major military characters are allowed so much individualism. It makes the military depiction seem almost “accepting”, “cool” and in the end, “tragic”, rather than soul sucking and downright evil. Never forget how cruel, cunning and ultimately uncaring the “nice looking” female officers of the Federation were in the 1979 series. They are “conventionally attractive”, squeaky clean in the image of the military, but their actions show they are anything but. Willing to sacrifice civilians to lure out the enemies is the tip of the iceberg and it was done so casually one wouldn’t bat an eye almost. This is why reducing every situation into “awakening” or not is reductive and even downright disrespectful, especially if it was done without thoughts and consideration and especially being done to somebody else work. This goes both way of course as idiots would proclaim something as “went awaken” to offhandedly dismiss a thoughtless addition for conformity. Both are equally disrespectful and dismissive of the works and efforts being made.
@@lc9245 A cursory glance at any classic Gundam show shows that individualism was never once denied to any of the characters, the women actually NOT being conventionally attractive as Tomino fought for them, and Matilda specifically, to have short and at the time masculine hair despite the studio wanting her to be more, you guessed it, conventionally attractive. The actual point of Gundam is in fact that individual people within these factions aren't necessarily evil, whereas their leaders necessarily are, as admitted by Tomino multiple times it is first and foremost a story about humanity, not a story about humanity killing each other. However uh, no, Zeon propaganda specifically was focused on being scary and intimidating, it was never focused on conformity or squeaky clean posturing, I don't know why you've focused more on the Federation than Zeon here as all of these character designs are Zeon, not Federation, and they very much fit the image of intimidation. Though regardless, we can see through the various character designs that none of these factions have ever had any form of consistent standards anyway.
@@Peasham I don't know if my composition or your comprehension is the issue to be addressed here, but it's like you were talking to someone else, comically missing my point. Let me be clear, probably one last time, about what I said. The show was anti-militarism. That has nothing to do with "denied individualism" through "cursory glance". You are lumping distinctive character design so you can tell them apart vs designing individualistic characters who are shown to be different and distinctive from each other. I'll address that in the uniform part. That point also has nothing to do with "a story about humanity" vs "a story about humanity killing each other". Zeon propaganda even less so and what do you mean by "focused more on Federation than Zeon"? Let's bring it back. Let's start with Zeon's propaganda? Zeon was quite deliberately alluded to as being "fascist-like", not "intimidating" per se, more "chauvinistic", "militant", "fascistic". The key word might be "glory in victory" or "strength". I don't want to bring too much analysis into the discussion to digress, but a particular memorable moment was the funeral in one of the earlier part/episode, in which the grieving father is reminded of his duty to the military and used his son's death to rally the troops. That's chauvinism. It is weak to grieve. Characters all have very visible emotion, but those emotions are eventually channelled through violence. The most decorated, individualised, as in accessorised, uniquely MADE to be by the character to be associated with them, other than their looks for reason I have mentioned that they need to look different from each other to be tell apart, aka their hair, is their weapon: the mechs. That's a given, since it is a show made to sell toys, but I think they cleverly used to as a point to be made about the nature of what you referred to as "necessarily are (evil)": the pursuit of victory, strength, chauvinism. This is why so-called anti-war movies that brought in things like brotherhood, soldiers putting cards on their helmet, posters on walls, listening to the radio and such which were supposed to invoke the "war is hell but we are still humans in the end", are condoned, accepted .... by the army. They know it romanticised war, and made the military "human". This is why I said adding soldier with piercing and tattoos, very individualistic as in being able to freely expressed their own uniqueness, hobby openly while serving in the military, as missing the point. It romanticised the military. I brought up the Federation's actions precisely because of that. They did not shy away from depicting the supposed good guys as being monsters despite them fighting fascists. Even the women military staffs were clearly capable of cunning and cruelty. It is that militarism, duty bound, winner takes all attitude that cast a long shadow on the show. Part of the shadow of militarism that can be seen was through the lens of conformity. Uniform is the first thing that made someone part of the military. Almost everyone is featureless, soldiers are depicted without accessories or special characteristics, which is precisely why Char felt special and stood out with his iconic helmet. Another part was Fraw joining the military by donning the greatest of conformity, the uniform on, and then Amuro putting on the fighting kit. That's why I brought up conformity. Militarism necessitate conformity for the sake of power and victory. Only through victory can one really be and make a "different", like Char. That's why everyone express themselves mostly through the only thing that represents them the most, their weapon, the robots. Having characters being allowed to "be free", is actually against that very spirit. I am very well aware that they can use those characters in a such a way that it twists the entire concept of "rebellious soldiers" in the military. Perhaps they already did by letting the fascist have cool hairdos, tattoos and piercings with people from diverse ethnicity, mocking or deconstructing other shows/tropes in which the "bad guys" are conformists and the good guys are diverse, tolerant. Maybe despite the veneer of the tattoos, piercing, the 2nd Lieutenant is completely a buy-the-book, follow order to the letter kind of soldier who would not hesitate to reduce children to ashes, and that all it takes is her to be allowed to have piercings. Now that would be an "appropriate" insertion of individualism expression for military character in an anti-war, anti-chauvinism series. I bring this up to show you I am not inherently against inserting such character design, but it must fit the theme of the series. If it's inserted just because, then it just would be missing the point and out of place.
@@anexistanthuman2435 I think the human character models could have benefitted from being a bit more stylized, like how Lupin III The First maintained the classic art style but translated it to CG.
The humans look like toys from Toy Story 2, pretty awful considering how amazing everything else looks. They got all the lights, sims, and shading right on the mechs and building but the humans look like action figure plastic
the characters look bad yeah but youre all tripping fucking balls thinking the mechs look bad, of course theyre not gonna show us any of the really good shit yet, in this day and age when trailers over-indulge and spoil basically entire plots with their trailers. this is a nice break from that especially since theyre going to be 6 thirty minute long episodes. have some faith yall...
It looks cool - I'm a big fan of the more grounded Gundam takes like Stardust Memory and 08th MS Team, so this is right up my alley. As long as the characters are good and have real personalities, and the story doesn't try to do too many things in too little runtime, it should be great! Though I have to wonder, is this what became of Netflix's announced live action Gundam movie that was supposed to be directed by Kong: Skull Island's Jordan Vogt-Roberts. The shot of the Gundam against the flaming hangars and buildings is really similar to one of the only pieces of concept art ever pushed out for that. I'm happy to see this, but I still want to see Vogt-Roberts' live action Gundam happen... especially since the facial animation here seems pretty... not great. It's not a dealbreaker, but it really reminds me of, like, Roughnecks: Starship Troopers Chronicles from, like, 2000.
@@Brasswatchman You know what? That is a fair point. I remember Lupin the 3rd: The First suffered from some horrendous mouth movements thanks to that, and that movie is _gorgeous_ otherwise. CGI is a lot tougher to change up for voicework than rewriting lines to fit into mouth flaps in 2D, and this is unfinished. I'll cross my fingers for the time being and stay positive that the face animations will be less stiff in the end!

@@Quest3GamesThat's more likely to do with the youtube buffering. There's tons of bad pixelation from buffering in 1080p. The original teaser released last December in 4k looks so much better.

I mean, to be sympathetic to the boots on the ground we need to understand what they THOUGHT they were fighting for even if the truth is far more horrifying.
Not "new management", more like "self management"... Lets remember that general Revil refused the peaceful independence option proposed by Degwin Zabi. The Zabis being wrong doesn't make the Earth Federation right, they are the imperialists after all.
I'm loving the vibe of the very gritty common military part of Universal Century. Looking forward to the show. BTW, as this Gundam is obviously another variation of the mobile suit, not Amuro's Gundam, I am wondering if this show is non-canon like the Origin and Thunderbolt? I know Bandai has been officially and continuously retconning the canon UC history over the years, continuously adding stories that the Earth Federation had several Gundam variations other than Amuro's RX-78-2 during the One Year War, but I'm still wondering if this show is canon.
@@akiraguybecause of the shoulder canon(the design shown only in Origin-related contents) and the antennas/horns(which Ez8 is known for not having them), I thought it was more like a variation of the Origin version of RX-78-2. But using a RX-79[G] Gundam Ground Type variant would make more sense for ground battles.
It looks like a variant of the ground type gundam, though the back mounted equipment might imply this happens in the Origin timeline. Until Bandai tells us which timeline, we won't know. Chances are Bandai will say both versions of UC happened in the over all "Turn A resets humanity between the shows" narrative.
@@junior-fj8ud Yeah, Ez8 was a custom machine - this thing reeks of an early RX-79G machine (the chest says Gundam EX on it, according to the pictures from the gunpla releases). I would put it as an early RX-79G (especially given the EFGF on the shoulder in the stills I've seen).
I hope that they redo the sounds for that rotary cannon firing at the 1:40 mark. I'm so tired of rotary cannons and miniguns all sounding like conventional machineguns. You'd think that by now that directors and sound designers know that these kinds of weapons make a unique buzzing kind of sound due to their high rates of fire, and it's this high rate of rie is why they have multiple barrels because any gun firing that would melt a single barrel.
The Ez8 and the Armored Gundam from Thunderbolt are the two from the UC timeline that I can think of that have red eyes. The RX-78-2 Gundam has orange eyes, and most of the ones after it have green. The red is VERY menacing.
I strongly doubt the writer and director of this animation have never realised the Principality of Zeon is modeled after Nazi Germany in the original works.
I was amazed at how good it was! The storyline didn't break for a gay scene. It didn't have a total focus on DEI. I didn't hear any white-hate comments. Shockingly, most of the typical nastiness and depravity that Hollywood injects was missing, and instead we get a good story. I liked the graphics and didn't mind the stiffness in the characters. Hopefully there will be a season 2!
@@angellara7040 When it comes to 2d animation, such errors are understandable. The character is drawn for the frame every time. But in 3D, this is outright stupidity, because the model is made once, and then moves like in a puppet cartoon. The creators of MS IGLOO did not know at all that these were insignia, because they came up with their own unique badges on epaulettes, but at the same time they stuck the same buttonholes on everyone's spacesuits, regardless of rank.
Look at all the ugly evil grunts in the animat3d series. These are just slightly less ugly versions of them but more realistic. It's probably because just like their animated counterparts they are meant to be killed off to showcase the gundam
The previous Gundam series that started airing 2 years ago had 2D animation, the same can be said for the Metaverse anime (not that the Metaverse anime is.. good), the upcoming IBO project and Hathaway 2. This is like the only modern fully cg Gundam thing lmao.

@@maxhell4033This series is being produced by two Japanese studios. And you're right, Matilda Ajan was infinitely less feminine than any female character presented here.
@@angellara7040 True, but that wasa just anime. This is the only time we've seen a woke woman design in gundam. Closest I can think of otherwise is Thunderbolt, where a pilot got various tattoos on different missions
It's miles ahead of IGLOO, but still the characters look like action figures compared, for example, to Love and Robots episodes with realistic CGI style. Also the dub falls flat if this is the best they have to show in the trailer. Maybe i am spoiled by VA in things like Baldur's Gate 3.
When this was initially being made, the technology hadn't existed yet in Unreal Engine to match some of the stuff we see in Love, Death, and Robots. Oddly had they waited until just last year to begin production, they'd of had everything they needed. If this gets a sequel, we'll probably see improved faces.
Nah the english does sound weird. Not necessarily bad va work it just doesn't sound mixed in to the animation. The lack of lip synching doesn't help either
Man, the animation looks really rough. Very floaty kind of unintentional animations throughout. Looks really great when paused though the lighting and stills are fantastic
I think that the main female character, Iria Solari is a really pretty woman. I guess we just have to see it for ourselves if she is a great character or bad character?
Not a fan of the way the new Gundam looks. It's a lot uglier in the face than any of the Earth Federation's mobile suits from that time period. if you put it next to the other OYW suits it looks out of place. I don't get why some productions need to completely screw with the way iconic things look in well-known stories. There have been plenty of updates to older properties that have looked like quality updates (Ghost in the Shell SAC, Macross) Then there are also things like this or the Michael Bay-led Transformers films which took perfectly fine robot designs and made them look like they were made out of scrap metal. I'll watch it but that and some very un-military looking soldiers will bother me the entire time.
Huh, it's almost like they're trying to convey something through that design. Also, Gundam characters have never been up to code, with these designs being infinitely more up to code than the standard lmao
It's very obvious whoever is making it doesn't actually care about Gundam and wants to do "their own thing." It's hideous and uncanny, as expected of Netflix garbage.
I hope it not an embarrassment to Japan and my childhood. I know Japan absolutely love Gundam. They even made a real life like Gundam that very huge. Im hoping this show or movie brings out a good mech story.
dude; this is netflix. They are gonna ruin all your good memories about gundam. Only black , lesbians CEO lady Bosses and woke LGBTABCD+ people - these are favorite of netflix .
They could've partnered with Namco Bandai (Tekken graphics wise) and Unreal Engine for quality overalls. To be honest, the video is beyond saveable, not even an expensive tivo or higher graphics can save this one 🤣🤣🤣

@@ZechsMerquise195 F91 did it well too. The Federation defense of Frontier 4 was a disaster with their disregard for the civilian casualties. In the history of LOL TOMINO moments, a woman's death by bonk to the head from a G-Cannon's discharged shell casing is second only to what happens to a child in Space Runaway Ideon. If you know, you know.
Hathaway was one of the few times where they show the basic function of the Mobile Suit doing more damage than the artillery.
@@_GeneralMechanics_ that was a brutal scene in F91. A discharged shell the size of a fridge, killed her instantly

0:50 why is there a texture pop in 😅
Character design that missed the point of Gundam aside, I wished this for style of depiction for Gundam for years. It is true that depicting toys in lowlights condition would not look as good, but it can be. I recently came around to read The Origin to see Yasuhiko Yoshikazu's vision and got hit my a wave of nostalgia that makes my hands shake back in the day. The dark, heavy tone, heavy metal sci-fi style of the 80s and 90s were the reason why I fall in love with the genre. It instantly sends me back to the first time I entered Armored Core 2 and the Core started moving. That heavy atmosphere of controlling a giant mechanised machine, blowing up others, a metallic terror, just clicks. AC6 left much to be desired, atmosphere and storywise, but the dark, heavy mechanised mood of the trailer was very IG mecha and it was just, glorious. Gundam with that sort of mood with its anti-war tone would fit right in, next to the usual beautiful classic "anime" style depiction. They have tried it many times, but they should have just went full balls to the walls like this during the edgy early 2000s era. Seed was iconic in its own ways, but I have to admit AC2 and 3 made me liked MS IGLOO more. Even that could have been even more grimy and mechanical. Having an even more brutal and tense Igloo coming out on the aftermath of Fallujah would have been brutal.
Oh I'd love to know what "point" they missed.
@@Peasham I’ve explained this replying to others below, but here goes. The original 79 Gundam had a heavy emphasis on anti-chauvinism, it was very cynical towards the military and militarism in general despite selling them as cool toys, which was what made the franchise stood out in my opinion (mecha was not a new genre in 79). An important part of the core concept was the death and conversion of individualism that’s fetishised into devotion for the military. Family, connection, love and all of that are used by the military as weapons at any place, any time, any cost. That’s why even though Gundam is iconic, the characters design even in newer series always remain rather generic, except for the very select few, and not necessary the “good guys”. Char for instance, stood out because of his iconic masked look. The reason why he’s “allowed” certain leeway is because of military reason. He’s an ace, his image served as a weapon to inspire the generic soldiers to die for the glory of battle. That’s extremely cynical view of the military practice. It actually addresses something uncomfortable about the US military that non-Americans often observe, such as in Starship Trooper. Decorative items and R&R things that are allowed are only there to distract the soldiers from the grim reality of militarism, making the military seem more “friendly”, rather than the monolithic, uncaring meat grinder that it is.
That’s why having freely piercing, tattooed with cool haircut, “strong female” leaders figures work against the very idea that Gundam was build on. It’s hard to see that cynicism mentioned above if every other major military characters are allowed so much individualism. It makes the military depiction seem almost “accepting”, “cool” and in the end, “tragic”, rather than soul sucking and downright evil. Never forget how cruel, cunning and ultimately uncaring the “nice looking” female officers of the Federation were in the 1979 series. They are “conventionally attractive”, squeaky clean in the image of the military, but their actions show they are anything but. Willing to sacrifice civilians to lure out the enemies is the tip of the iceberg and it was done so casually one wouldn’t bat an eye almost.
This is why reducing every situation into “awakening” or not is reductive and even downright disrespectful, especially if it was done without thoughts and consideration and especially being done to somebody else work. This goes both way of course as idiots would proclaim something as “went awaken” to offhandedly dismiss a thoughtless addition for conformity. Both are equally disrespectful and dismissive of the works and efforts being made.
@@lc9245 A cursory glance at any classic Gundam show shows that individualism was never once denied to any of the characters, the women actually NOT being conventionally attractive as Tomino fought for them, and Matilda specifically, to have short and at the time masculine hair despite the studio wanting her to be more, you guessed it, conventionally attractive. The actual point of Gundam is in fact that individual people within these factions aren't necessarily evil, whereas their leaders necessarily are, as admitted by Tomino multiple times it is first and foremost a story about humanity, not a story about humanity killing each other.
However uh, no, Zeon propaganda specifically was focused on being scary and intimidating, it was never focused on conformity or squeaky clean posturing, I don't know why you've focused more on the Federation than Zeon here as all of these character designs are Zeon, not Federation, and they very much fit the image of intimidation. Though regardless, we can see through the various character designs that none of these factions have ever had any form of consistent standards anyway.
@@Peasham I don't know if my composition or your comprehension is the issue to be addressed here, but it's like you were talking to someone else, comically missing my point. Let me be clear, probably one last time, about what I said. The show was anti-militarism. That has nothing to do with "denied individualism" through "cursory glance". You are lumping distinctive character design so you can tell them apart vs designing individualistic characters who are shown to be different and distinctive from each other. I'll address that in the uniform part. That point also has nothing to do with "a story about humanity" vs "a story about humanity killing each other". Zeon propaganda even less so and what do you mean by "focused more on Federation than Zeon"? Let's bring it back.
Let's start with Zeon's propaganda? Zeon was quite deliberately alluded to as being "fascist-like", not "intimidating" per se, more "chauvinistic", "militant", "fascistic". The key word might be "glory in victory" or "strength". I don't want to bring too much analysis into the discussion to digress, but a particular memorable moment was the funeral in one of the earlier part/episode, in which the grieving father is reminded of his duty to the military and used his son's death to rally the troops. That's chauvinism. It is weak to grieve. Characters all have very visible emotion, but those emotions are eventually channelled through violence. The most decorated, individualised, as in accessorised, uniquely MADE to be by the character to be associated with them, other than their looks for reason I have mentioned that they need to look different from each other to be tell apart, aka their hair, is their weapon: the mechs. That's a given, since it is a show made to sell toys, but I think they cleverly used to as a point to be made about the nature of what you referred to as "necessarily are (evil)": the pursuit of victory, strength, chauvinism.
This is why so-called anti-war movies that brought in things like brotherhood, soldiers putting cards on their helmet, posters on walls, listening to the radio and such which were supposed to invoke the "war is hell but we are still humans in the end", are condoned, accepted .... by the army. They know it romanticised war, and made the military "human". This is why I said adding soldier with piercing and tattoos, very individualistic as in being able to freely expressed their own uniqueness, hobby openly while serving in the military, as missing the point. It romanticised the military. I brought up the Federation's actions precisely because of that. They did not shy away from depicting the supposed good guys as being monsters despite them fighting fascists. Even the women military staffs were clearly capable of cunning and cruelty. It is that militarism, duty bound, winner takes all attitude that cast a long shadow on the show.
Part of the shadow of militarism that can be seen was through the lens of conformity. Uniform is the first thing that made someone part of the military. Almost everyone is featureless, soldiers are depicted without accessories or special characteristics, which is precisely why Char felt special and stood out with his iconic helmet. Another part was Fraw joining the military by donning the greatest of conformity, the uniform on, and then Amuro putting on the fighting kit. That's why I brought up conformity. Militarism necessitate conformity for the sake of power and victory. Only through victory can one really be and make a "different", like Char. That's why everyone express themselves mostly through the only thing that represents them the most, their weapon, the robots. Having characters being allowed to "be free", is actually against that very spirit.
I am very well aware that they can use those characters in a such a way that it twists the entire concept of "rebellious soldiers" in the military. Perhaps they already did by letting the fascist have cool hairdos, tattoos and piercings with people from diverse ethnicity, mocking or deconstructing other shows/tropes in which the "bad guys" are conformists and the good guys are diverse, tolerant. Maybe despite the veneer of the tattoos, piercing, the 2nd Lieutenant is completely a buy-the-book, follow order to the letter kind of soldier who would not hesitate to reduce children to ashes, and that all it takes is her to be allowed to have piercings. Now that would be an "appropriate" insertion of individualism expression for military character in an anti-war, anti-chauvinism series. I bring this up to show you I am not inherently against inserting such character design, but it must fit the theme of the series. If it's inserted just because, then it just would be missing the point and out of place.

@@PaladinodoCerradooficialThis sounds like heresy to me!
It looks cool - I'm a big fan of the more grounded Gundam takes like Stardust Memory and 08th MS Team, so this is right up my alley. As long as the characters are good and have real personalities, and the story doesn't try to do too many things in too little runtime, it should be great! Though I have to wonder, is this what became of Netflix's announced live action Gundam movie that was supposed to be directed by Kong: Skull Island's Jordan Vogt-Roberts. The shot of the Gundam against the flaming hangars and buildings is really similar to one of the only pieces of concept art ever pushed out for that.
I'm happy to see this, but I still want to see Vogt-Roberts' live action Gundam happen... especially since the facial animation here seems pretty... not great. It's not a dealbreaker, but it really reminds me of, like, Roughnecks: Starship Troopers Chronicles from, like, 2000.
Keep in mind that they're likely dubbing this in both English and Japanese. I imagine things might look significantly better in the original language.
@@Brasswatchman You know what? That is a fair point. I remember Lupin the 3rd: The First suffered from some horrendous mouth movements thanks to that, and that movie is _gorgeous_ otherwise. CGI is a lot tougher to change up for voicework than rewriting lines to fit into mouth flaps in 2D, and this is unfinished. I'll cross my fingers for the time being and stay positive that the face animations will be less stiff in the end!
@@barry-allenthe-flash8396 That seems like the case, yeah. Maybe someday everyone will be able to resync mouth movements on a country-by-country basis. But until then...

I know Bandai has been officially and continuously retconning the canon UC history over the years, continuously adding stories that the Earth Federation had several Gundam variations other than Amuro's RX-78-2 during the One Year War, but I'm still wondering if this show is canon.
Most probably rx-79 eZ8 Gundam (G) variant.
@@akiraguybecause of the shoulder canon(the design shown only in Origin-related contents) and the antennas/horns(which Ez8 is known for not having them), I thought it was more like a variation of the Origin version of RX-78-2. But using a RX-79[G] Gundam Ground Type variant would make more sense for ground battles.
It looks like a variant of the ground type gundam, though the back mounted equipment might imply this happens in the Origin timeline. Until Bandai tells us which timeline, we won't know.
Chances are Bandai will say both versions of UC happened in the over all "Turn A resets humanity between the shows" narrative.
@@akiraguy The EZ8 was a one-off, so very unlikely. More likely, it's one of the ground-types that the EZ8 was before its rebuild.

I hope that they redo the sounds for that rotary cannon firing at the 1:40 mark. I'm so tired of rotary cannons and miniguns all sounding like conventional machineguns. You'd think that by now that directors and sound designers know that these kinds of weapons make a unique buzzing kind of sound due to their high rates of fire, and it's this high rate of rie is why they have multiple barrels because any gun firing that would melt a single barrel.

@@angellara7040 True, but that wasa just anime. This is the only time we've seen a woke woman design in gundam. Closest I can think of otherwise is Thunderbolt, where a pilot got various tattoos on different missions
It's miles ahead of IGLOO, but still the characters look like action figures compared, for example, to Love and Robots episodes with realistic CGI style. Also the dub falls flat if this is the best they have to show in the trailer. Maybe i am spoiled by VA in things like Baldur's Gate 3.
When this was initially being made, the technology hadn't existed yet in Unreal Engine to match some of the stuff we see in Love, Death, and Robots. Oddly had they waited until just last year to begin production, they'd of had everything they needed. If this gets a sequel, we'll probably see improved faces.
Nah the english does sound weird. Not necessarily bad va work it just doesn't sound mixed in to the animation. The lack of lip synching doesn't help either

Is this Zaku Tank? Why does it have a shoulder cannon from Zaku Cannon, but also normal Zaku head?
Aren't zaku tanks just zakus that can't walk anymore? It's probably a zaku cannon that was used
Man, the animation looks really rough. Very floaty kind of unintentional animations throughout. Looks really great when paused though the lighting and stills are fantastic
Seeing how zions troops react to a fucking gundam... a god of death
I look forward to seeing Zakus fall like flies.
They got the bad guys flipped around here
Agreed. A day where the Zekes pop like balloons is a good day.
Gundam: The Girlboss Requiem
That's what I'm afraid of. This might be very Netflix centric

I liked G-witch, but I chuckled at this comment. I still hold out hope it will be as good as MS-Igloo but we'll see.
*A chick with face tattoos how bad ass.. LAME!*
I think that the main female character, Iria Solari is a really pretty woman. I guess we just have to see it for ourselves if she is a great character or bad character?
The animation buff in me is vilified but the the gunpla builder in me is delighted
I wish we got an open world gundam game. Would be sick to have the world of no man's sky and the gameplay of GBO2.
Saving Private Zaku
Not a fan of the way the new Gundam looks. It's a lot uglier in the face than any of the Earth Federation's mobile suits from that time period. if you put it next to the other OYW suits it looks out of place. I don't get why some productions need to completely screw with the way iconic things look in well-known stories. There have been plenty of updates to older properties that have looked like quality updates (Ghost in the Shell SAC, Macross) Then there are also things like this or the Michael Bay-led Transformers films which took perfectly fine robot designs and made them look like they were made out of scrap metal. I'll watch it but that and some very un-military looking soldiers will bother me the entire time.
Huh, it's almost like they're trying to convey something through that design. Also, Gundam characters have never been up to code, with these designs being infinitely more up to code than the standard lmao
It's very obvious whoever is making it doesn't actually care about Gundam and wants to do "their own thing." It's hideous and uncanny, as expected of Netflix garbage.
I hope it not an embarrassment to Japan and my childhood. I know Japan absolutely love Gundam. They even made a real life like Gundam that very huge. Im hoping this show or movie brings out a good mech story.
dude; this is netflix. They are gonna ruin all your good memories about gundam. Only black , lesbians CEO lady Bosses and woke LGBTABCD+ people - these are favorite of netflix .
These cut-scenes are awesome! I really look forward to playing this game.
It's not a game.
Now I want to see Gaunt’s Ghosts TV show directed by Erasmus Brosdau !
Watching this trailer just reminds me how ahead the ff15 movie was

Looks like cutscenes from a PC game & like a totally soulless “hollywoodized“ version of Gundam.
They could've partnered with Namco Bandai (Tekken graphics wise) and Unreal Engine for quality overalls. To be honest, the video is beyond saveable, not even an expensive tivo or higher graphics can save this one 🤣🤣🤣
