New Gundam series next October!… Apparently.

Fresh from the rumour mill. According to Moon Phase Zakki sources, a new Gundam series will start airing October next year. Many valorous spies paid the ultimate sacrifice to bring us this information.

Stellar~~~

Quote:

ガンダム新シリーズ、来年10月放送にむけて始動!…らしい。

「天保異聞 妖奇士」の後番、来年の土6は新ガンダム。監督は水島精二氏とのこと。一応、内部リークですが、実際この通り順調に企画が進むかどうかは不明。

Translation:

New Gundam series, starts airing October next year!… Apparently.
Taking over the time slot of Ayakashi Ayashi, a new Gundam series will air during the Saturday 6pm slot next year. The director will be Seiji Mizushima. Although this is, technically, an internal leak, it is not confirmed whether the project is really proceeding as stated.

You can just feel the journalistic confidence oozing out of this little article… On another note, Seiji Mizushima is most well-known as the director of Full Metal Alchemist.

Unlike most people, I still have hopes for the SEED franchise, especially if a new director is being brought in to continue the series. While it is not certain if the new Gundam series will continue the C.E. timeline, or indeed whether it even exists at this moment, I have this to say: BRING STELLAR BACK!!!

P.S. Moon Phase has also confirmed, with information from Comiket 70, that the third Nanoha series will be a full-fledged TV series and not OVAs. I don’t care for Nanoha, but it’s on the same page as this news so might as well….

    heero yuy is so know everything…..

    Send him to the Intelligance to research about Mobile suit… sure got mobile suit in next 4 billions years later… by the way Starwars 1 of the best also…..

  2. Razakiller says:

    I agree with Darkdestiny In his long Statement….

    I agree…. Media…. biz…… not just…. bla bla bla and hu hu ha ha….
    or wow wow wow and yes yes yes….
    Media biz…. the want to attract more People…. like they did in seed….
    It attract Girls and boys……

  3. darkdestiny says:

    Well, Gystara, perhaps a DRAGOON system look-a-like won’t really exist in the future. But mobile suits can, given how fast the technology involving robots had advanced. Time will tell what will happen.

    And are you kidding about my taking physics class in college? Nope, that’s not true. But if you meant science, I’m certainly undergoing a science course right now.

  4. razakiller says:

    wow darkdestiny is future Scientice wow……. if you be it soon and build MOBILE SUIT soon …

  5. darkdestiny says:

    I doubt so… having been doing well in class. Ain’t studying engineering subjects though.

    But I’ve been thinking about this: how about turning an MS Gundam series, old or new, into 3D? It’ll be much interesting if they do that.

    But if not, at least turn a Gundam movie 3D then!

  6. UCAWCEACFCCC says:

    NO!!! 3D WILL MESS UP GUNDAM

    You saw what happened with G-Savior didn’t you?
    It was so bad that they don’t even claim it on most Gundam sites. I mean, SD Gundam is claimed as a Gundam Series/Movie more often than G-Savior.

    Aside from that, 3D is already invading everything. Supporting Gundam into 3D would probably mean the end of old style animation in Gundam. Old style animation is fighting a losing battle as 3D takes over.

    Besides, we all know that eventually they are probably just going to end up remaking every single series in 3D. I’m betting that within the next 10 years 0079 will be rereleased in 3D and it will be announced that they will all be rerelease in 3D. (When I say all, I mean all of the series that they think they might make money on. They probably wont remake the series that they didn’t make as much on. For example, Turn A, Victory, and X probably wouldn’t be remade because they aren’t as big of series, they are more underground compared to the others.)

  7. darkdestiny says:

    OK, then I guess 3Ds should be meant for those anime games and not the shows themselves.

  8. Heero328 says:

    Eh you guys talk too much, SEED more or less is a chick flick, if not for Wing I guarantee Gundam wouldn’t be big in America. When Mobile Suit Gundam was released here it got horrible ratings and was canceled, although it is a great series people liked Gundam Wing better. Telling me about realism of space colonies and flying mobile suits, that’s really realistic, gundam in general isn’t realistic, either the case Gundam Wing made gundam what it is in America and you know it.

  9. Heeroyuy041 says:

    You are so right Heero328!!!

    PS: Isn’t this thread supposed to discuss about the new show coming out or are we just arguing over which series is better. there has been 109 posts and 60% of them are just debatable comments or arguments.

    Come on people, show some enthusiasm!!! It’s Gundam for Gods Sake, have some imagination.

  10. razakiller says:

    oh…… wings…. why north America was been ban by the BAndai team?

  11. darkdestiny says:

    I agree with reply 109. The discussions about what Gundam series will appear in October has turned to a war of words between SEED, Wing and many more series. Perhaps I too got too engrossed with supporting SEED in the war.

    But anyway, I post this message as I just figured out something at Youtube. A movie is to come out in 2008. The title is Gundam SEED Detiny: The Motion Picture. I’m not quite sure whether it’s the full length movie for the last of the trilogy or a revised version of GSD. According to Wikipedia’s “Gundam SEED: The Movie” article, the movie will focus on the events of C.E. 74.

    And take note in the article: it’s the first full length movie for a Gundam series since that of MS Gundam F91 (probably known as Gundam F91: The Motion Picture). So, this GSD: Motion Picture will most probably be the last of the trilogy we’ll ever heard of the C.E. timeline.

  12. HeeroYuy041 says:

    UGH! A Gundam Seed Movie!!!!!
    This is even more shocking than Ace Combat 6 Fires of Liberation, and Mobile OPs porting over to the XBOX 360!
    Ahhh i feel like shooting Mitsuo Fukuda in the face!
    2008 huh and not even a more specific date! well that is just dandy!
    Anyway back to more pressing matters I’m totally cool with the release of the movie since i’m NOT going to argue over things with ppl. Those who support SEED = congrats, you’ve just made my day!
    (I’m ONLY KIDDING, it is great that they are making an official Gundam Seed Movie. That way it will be even with Gundam Wing since GW had Endless Waltz, and now SEED has its own movie, How Ironic!)
    Hooray!

    PS: DarkD… It’s perfectly fine to support Gundam SEED, I know that there are ppl who support shows for their own reasons and I’m perfectly cool wid that. I can also be at fault for saying GW is better!

    Any Way! back to discussing about the New Gundam Series!!!
    :)

    To Darkdestiny

    Sorry to disappoint you but I just checked it out and…that ain’t real..that’s just some AMV some dude made. And it was well done to.

  14. darkdestiny says:

    I refer to post 113.

    maurice, I don’t know if there’s such a presence of this sneak trailer, but I’ve just discovered several traces of evidence of the movie coming up. And besides, I think another trailer had been fished out and posted in Youtube itself. Hate to say it, but it does sound like there’s gonna be a movie of Gundam SEED coming up soon.

    Try typing “Gundam SEED The Movie Opening Theme” in Google video or Youtube.

    Title: Gundam SEED Destiny: The Motion Picture
    Release Year: 2008

    It may just be rumoured, but at least it’s a ray of hope that all mysteries of Gundam SEED will be solved.

  15. darkdestiny says:

    Take note! A new trailer for the Oct

  16. darkdestiny says:

    Guys! This is great news! The title of the new Gundam series in October 2007, as well as the trailer and details, is now released! It does appear true!

    http://aeug.blogspot.com/

    The title appears to be:

    Mobile Suit Gundam OO (Double O)

    More details at the front page of this site!

  17. darkdestiny says:

    Ok, I think my reply is a bit cut off. But I just would like to say, the title and trailer for the new Gundam series is released! Title is Mobile Suit Gundam OO. Try searching the trailer in Wikipedia and Youtube!

  18. HeeroYuy041 says:

    I was just about to say the sam thing! But u beat me to it!
    Dam!!!:(

  19. darkdestiny says:

    Well, DarkMirage moderators are ahead of me by more than a day. The news had already been announced.

  22. onikuy says:

    AH basta ako Gundam Seed StarGazer Rulse them all gundam seed Class!!!!!!!!

  23. Connor Dino says:

    Ok lets all just calm down and by the by to anyone who likes Wing, I have 2 problems with that series, 1 how does the buster rifle work and if it is so powerful why didn’t Hero use it on Lebra in the final episode, I mean really two shots and the hole thing would go boom. the 2nd is that total pacafisum will never work. Why because people will always have different views and if views clash people will fight for their ideals.

    And you people are proving my point by yelling at each other.

    UC fans I hate to say it but I think Uc is dead, I liked that series but it came out a long time ago.

    CE fans did you know they are making a Movie of seed so I don’t think this new series will be seed. I have heard it will start a new series something about some human competly geneticly engenered and the human is put in the front lines of some war, over time he/she starts to struggle with who they are. And the human Goes crazy and turnes on its makes. This series has a Bourne aspect to it and it will show that the Human is on stopable not its Gundam.

    Remember Remember the 5th of November

  24. darkdestiny says:

    To Connor Dino:

    You’re right about UC and CE, but the discussion of the next Gundam series in October is already over. No use talking about it now.

  25. ichigo says:

    I think that gundam wing kinda sucks, no specific plot wat so ever..

    Lets admit it gundam seed was the best gundam series that we have seen..

    But gundam destiny was a disappoinment because they use the same scene over and over again..the story also sucks because it was like gundam seed..from the attack in the zaft base ( in gs it was in a neutral colony ) just to get a gundam.

    I just want to see that therre will be a closure to the story of Kira and Lacus, Cagali And Athrun…then move on to new characters…

    Gundam’s will continue to improve because of the time frame of each Gundam series, its continuosly moving forward to the future…

    Bigger Guns!!! Bigger explosions!!! Better Gundams!!!

    they should also make kira and lacus kiss for the love of God!!

  26. darkdestiny says:

    If you check Wikipedia’s page on Gundam SEED’s movie (it’s known as Mobile Suit Gundam SEED: The Movie in that site, and click on the Gunota Headlines link, they did mention the 5 main characters, as well as a phrase translated as: “their path takes us…”

    Obviously, the phrase itself meant that the 5 characters (Shinn, Athrun, Kira, Cagalli and Lacus) will be the main focus to bringing peace in the C.E. universe, or whatever the sentence meant. Shinn’s already on Kira’s side, so we’ll see more of the good way of SEED mode in him (not the kind when one goes berserk in SEED).

  27. Zyrael says:

    After reading a bunch of posts after my last post months ago… I was surprised to know that this topic went on… If I remember it right, at my last post, I just finished watching the 14 sec trailer of Gundam Double 0 in YouTube. I expected this topic to end after that… Oh well

    Double O is coming people… So what exactly are we expecting?
    Good stroy? Better MS design? Better plot twists? Better game? What kind of game? What kind of soundtack? Who’s gonna be singin for the intro and outro? Or perhaps a much clearer technical background. (If SEED didn’t give enough technical background for you, better just watch NGC, they show war machines there from time to time and all they show are the technical stuff).

    I’m expecting that they won’t do to what they did to Heine and Miguel.

    Those two are like tributes for the singer of TM Revolution (forgot the name) but they like freakin killed them right after introducing them. What’s up with that? Did they hate TM Revolution so much that they decided to back stab him like that??? Er… not back stab, perhaps Slice. ^^ Both of them did get kill via the swords.

    People saying Wikipedia isn’t reliable, fine… where else would you get info about anything here nowadays? Everything on the net could be altered by just about anyone else too you know. Just because we base our arguements on Wikipedia, doesn’t mean it’s completely unreliable.

    Reply to POST 98

    Mobile Suits are a probable reality, and so are the DRAGOON system, and whatever you see on any Gundam show. It doesn’t mean that if we base future tech on animated shows, doesn’t mean their impossible to come true.

    People once said that future tech in movies are impossible. Now NGC frequently shows that the very basis for the development of the current tecnology we have now, are more or less from the movies or TV shows.

    To HeeroYuy041 in POST 93

    You mentioned something there like Mobile Suit like armor development, right? You said it was Russia… Well according to my resources, aside from Japan developing Robot Technology, Israel is also developing their own…

    According to my resources, Israel is said to be studying the development of real robots which could be used in military warfare. This can be backed up by the constant war between Israel and Palestine, as this war goes on, more and more soldiers are lost. In theory, Israel plans to replace their infantry with mobile armored walkers capable of human-like mobility with the protection of heavy tanks. Not completely sure if this is real, but my sources say…

    Japan on the otherhand does not produce robots for war.

    — side note for POST 93

    Japan won’t be producing any powerful military technology in the near future because of the treaty they are under within the United Nations. Within this treaty, it is said that Japan cannot expand their military power to a large scale and they cannot use weaponry explicitly for Japan to use alone. Development of military technology in Japan is governed and under close watch by the United Nation. If I’m not mistaken. The UN made this treaty in fear of the events that took place in World War 2. Japan being the last of the Axis to give surrender probably cause them this. This treaty is said to last for a really really long time… We might all be dead before that happens.

    If you ask me, I think that the leaders of UN we’re probably scared of the determination of the Japanese people to win the war that they thought this would cause them to lose any war that would be held in the future. Or perhaps they saw that Japan had the capability to rise because of predicted increase in technology. Although the second case seems unlikely since the leading nation in technology back then was in Europe.

    —— another side note [ADVANCEMENT OF TECHNOLOGY]

    I saw this show in NGC once where the arm of a paralyzed person can be ordered to move again, by the brain, via a computer. To cut the technical explaination short… Brain sends signals to muscles, gadget attached to person recieve the signals, since the muscles cannot properly “understand” the signal because it is “jammed” due to paralysis, the computer in the gadget “un-jams” the signals then sends it to the other end towards the muscles making the arm and hands move again…

    The relevance of this in Gundam… Think G Gundam.

    ——— on another side note

    POSTS 122 and 125

    Filipinoes have comments that are, in my experience and opinion, mostly isolated from everyone else. They apparently have no idea what people here are talkin about and are most of the time… pointless.

    from ichigo:

    “Lets admit it gundam seed was the best gundam series that we have seen..”

    Even I, who’s a fan of SEED, disagree… We haven’t seen all the Gundam shows yet… There maybe still more out there to be released in the future that will be better than SEED.

  28. darkdestiny says:

    Just a note from Sunrise’s homepage about the new Gundam SEED movie. Translated from Japanese to English.

    “Gundam SEED which records 21 century largest hits finally theater filmed decided!!

    You run the world of [kozumitsuku] [ira] and the numerous mobile suit which it comes out, the popularity character whirls to the silver screen and gets off!
    It was released in 1991 as a complete new work movie of the Gundam series production “of movement soldier Gundam F91” ever since.
    It can unfold the dynamic and the delicate image production which are due to Fukuda oneself Tsu middle supervision at the theater.
    In regard to details it is consecutive release schedule inside this official Web sight.  

    The curtain of the SEED legend which becomes new opens now!”

    *Used Google Translate*

    Though this topic is more like a Gundam 00 topic, I think it’ll be OK to talk about future Gundam series.

    In any case, this is the only “prove” that Gundam SEED is going to have a movie.
