I knew that Zeta had Gundam Mk II, so when I saw that they were developing a new type of Gundam in 0080, it seemed like something that could potentially be retcon-y.
I don't mind retcons in general, I just didn't want to watch something that would potentially retcon something else that I haven't even seen yet. Tho, 0080 did state there were two Alex Gundams, but the story surrounding the 2nd one is convoluted, obscure, or outright not existing beyond a hobby magazine custom gunpla made to show what a Uni 2 would look like. |

FUCK!!!!!
Was building the RG Force Impulse Gundam when the front piece of the right thigh armor went flying somewhere behind my bed. I could search for it but I know I will end up destroying my room as I will not lie my room is a mess. |

Well, there's an event that happens in 0080 anyway that prevents anything from 0080 ever coming into fruition in Zeta. The Alex certainly never made it to its destination.

Apparently there's a new Gundam SEED film coming out.
edit: Could I have posted something more boring? But seriously, I don't have much to say about it other than...it's happening. What do you all think?

SEED has a bad rep because a lot of the animation and art style looks really dated compared to the rest of the Gundam works, even stuff that came before it. Also it has some of the silliest and most needlessly dramatic plot shifts (and not in a charming way like Gundam Wing). However, it was still very popular and the suit designs still sell very well so I'm not surprised to see it get some love right now. SEED had some good ideas and solid world building.
I noticed the art style has been modernized and I think that helps a lot. Freedom Gundam is one of the best suits ever designed.

I really do wonder how SEED Destiny would've turned out if it weren't for the behind-the-scenes drama that happened between the producer and the voice actors.
I don't know the full details but for those out of the loop apparently the director thought that her husband was cheating with Cagalli's VA or something, and when Shinn's VA tried to defend Cagalli's VA, the director made Shinn boring/insane in response and made Cagalli lose the character development she gained in SEED. I'm not so sure if this is true or not, but fans believe it is because a.) the producer was going through depression at that time and b.) interviews with the VAs have hinted at this so yeah.

What was the methodology for deciding which countries to attach to characters in G Gundam?
Each Fighter was a representative of a "Neo" country, but how did the conceptional and production staff decide which countries a character should be attached to? For example, why is the Shuffle Alliance comprised of Neo-Russia, Neo-China, Neo-France, and Neo-American representatives? Why was it decided to make the enigmatic and strangely helpful Schwarz a member of Neo-Germany? |

I looked last night and and many if not all Gundam series on Hulu are apparently leaving as of today.
Is there any additional chatter regarding this as well as access to the various series? |
