The show seems to hit ONE of those points right now. I'm not optimistic about it hitting the latter point. It looks like they allotted themselves a budget for armor and spent it piling it up on the limbs and head and then figured "Hey, no one's going to aim for center of mass from behind!". Unless that thing's made of some super-high tolerance material, a glancing shot from a beam rifle is going to MELT its hydraulics. I have no problem with giant robot designs as long as they're somewhat practical, particularly in a Gundam series.

I don't see how this is worse than an Armored Core robot or an Eva.

Pretty sure you can't really constantly have those moving.

yeah but you buy model kits to build and pose.
which I don't think the skinny waists will affect them in that regard.

To quote McDonalds, "I'm lovin it!". G-tekketsu,depending on the acting, seems like it's going to be a fun series. I love when they go militaristic, but semi believable. Like, they don't have a mech production that pumps out thousands of mobile suits, just one Gundam with some help from mobile armor.

Looks pretty good, but my biggest concern is the production staff.

The writer and director were both behind AnoHana and Toradora (among other things), which were great shows (especially AnoHana) but not really a good comparison point to gauge the quality of a Gundam show.

The director also has Idolmaster: Xenoglossia to his name, which is one of the worst mecha shows I've ever come across.

Ah well, can't be any worse than G-(Train W)Reco.

The only thing I'm concerned about is in the video, the mech battles seemed to involve a lot of side strafing/circling. lol
