To his credit that was likely done in an attempt to explain how Casval could even enter the Zeon military to begin with without being killed on site.

Not really a screw up since the Origin is a retelling.

Are they planning to animate the entire manga then?

Don't know.

both P-Bandai

I'm not sure, honestly. We know that they are going to continue the backstory with the Loum arc (potentially ending with the setup for MSG episode 1), but remaking 0079, I don't know.

I think there's been an increase in demand for an MSG remake, at least amongst American fans on sites like reddit. With the 40th anniversary coming up, I think a lot of people see the perfect opprotunity. Plus, I think what holds 0079 back from being a lot more popular in the anime community in the west is the age of the animation, even with the movie version. So it's both those factors why people WANT it but I'm not sure if Bandai will do it.

...Technically Seed was a 0079 remake.

And well Crossbone never got animated despite both fanbases begging for it for over a decade.

I get that SEED is like really really close to 0079 in certain ways, but it's not the exact same. Plus, U.C. is far better than C.E., at least just counting only animated stuff, so I think it would be better if Sunrise straight up remade 0079 with all of that world's artstyle/quirks.

Regarding the Crossbone adaptation thing at this point, I think it's less about Crossbone not being adapted and more being about Crossbone being a flagship for Gundam manga overall. To Sunrise/Bandai, I think they probably view it as its own thing that they wouldn't want to make official, not out of disrespect to the quality of the material, but to let it stand on its own. But I could be completely wrong about all of this. Bandai could have a multiseason Crossbone show waiting in the wings and is waiting on the manga to finally finish.

I would hope Crossbone is in the works. Of the various UC related manga that exist, that franchise is the best. It's a pipe dream for many of us, but maybe one day. I personally don't want a 0079 remake. I like the original series just as it is.

Blue Destiny is my dream.

You, I like you.

I hope so too, in the fact that Late U.C. could use some fleshing out and good and interesting stories.

I don't think the Blue Destiny story is that long, so maybe an OVA or two by the team behind Thunderbolt would be cool.
