There were a couple of "decent" aspects: they didn't ruin Byakuen and a couple of new characters were tolerable. What was the target audience for this? Older people will probably find it bad and newer shonen fans have a completely different taste and standards. Am I wrong?

Japanese fans who watched 26's #サムライトルーパー. What did you think? It's been years since I saw such a bad sequel. It's like it tried to offend fans. Horrible pacing, cringe-inducing singing, cynical, non-sensical plot, tone-deaf and キャラ崩壊 of many characters. 1/2

今の東宝がやってくれないであろう、昭和ゴジラやVSシリーズのノリを保持してくれてるんだから、まじで感謝でしかない。君達はそのままでええんや。

For the anniversary they should find the like 100 plus chapters of the middle of the manga that aren't scanned for some fucking reason

@pika_nekopanda I don't care about current trends so these are the first ones that came to mind.

海外ニキへ質問です。 日本の有名人と言ったら最初に誰を思い浮かべますか？

@gojugo5 I love Universal Century series, but if they expect a huge result in box office, they should develop a story that, from the ground-up, is as insteresting and epic as the original Gundam. Until you manage to give the audience a new Amuro & Char to cheer on, it won't make it.

実のところこれ結構洒落になってなくて 上映規模で言えば ・ジークアクスの約1.25倍 ・FREEDOMの約2倍 ・一章の約3倍 なので、ジークアクスに負けてるのは勿論30億もいかなさそうなのは結構今後の宇宙世紀の展開に影響与えると思うよ

@panipani1976 I only care about revenue as long as it makes the production go "yeah, we will make more shows like that". Otherwise as a fan it's inconsequential. GquuuX may have been a success, but storywise it was still lacking and that's all I care about.

「宇宙世紀の続編なのにジークアクスに興行収入負けちゃった...」

@gundam_news105 I give every new gundam series a chance. As long as I enjoy it, I don't really care if it's UC or not. I thought GquX was better than WfM but still quite disappointing. If it weren't for the names involved in the production, I think it'd be forgotten already.

GQuuuuuuX and Hathaway’s Flash operate as entirely different marketing and distribution cases. GQuuuuuuX is positioned as the -beginning- of a new timeline, with virtually no barrier to entry. It benefited greatly from Hideaki Anno’s name being attached, alongside Pokémon-like character designs and Evangelion-like mecha designs. It was built to invite a broad audience in from the outset. Hathaway’s Flash, on the other hand, has long been regarded as a more niche work that fully leans into Yoshiyuki Tomino’s sensibilities. It isn’t designed for newcomers. It assumes familiarity with the Universal Century, from First Gundam to Char’s Counterattack. Shukou Murase isn’t a mainstream director, he loves Western-influenced aesthetics and direction. As one of the biggest fans of Hathaway’s Flash, who also REALLY enjoyed GQuuuuuuX. It is what it is. 😌

@akiman7 Overseas we have sadly been fearing it for the past five years. For some reason (MONEY), Japanese production commitees have been infiltrated and incentivized to be more "socially aware" and "politically correct", which in my opinion kills most of the soul good anime has.

アニメ界にWOKE運動が一斉に起こりそうで不安ですね。

@kohei__murakami That's really cool, I hope you enjoy them! That order is indeed correct. I recommend Zeta series over the Zeta movies: Both ZZ & CCA makes more sense this way. Also, Turn A Gundam is technically the end of Universal Century and a great series!

『Zガンダム』始めました！ 子どもの頃はファーストから『F91』まで観ていましたが、Z以降を大人になってから観るのは今回が初めて。 この順番でOK？ Z → ZZ → 逆シャア → F91 劇場版『Z』三部作はどのタイミングで観るのがベストなんですかね？

@nekoyamaseven I did not know about that cut scene. It's a very powerful one. I think this is a timeless classic. Hopefully everyone that keeps discovering Godzilla in the future gives the original film a chance.

@aynlander オリジナル版はもう何回観たかわかりません。 日本が戦争に敗れてわずか9年後に日本人のトラウマとして現れたのがゴジラでした。 個人的に子供を抱いた母親の場面が印象的ですが、たしかアメリカ版ではカットされていたと記憶してます。

海外の怪獣オタクの皆様に質問。 最初の「ゴジラ」が傑作だと言われていますが、それはレイモンド・バーが出ているKing of The Monsterの評価なのでしょうか？ 確か、日本のオリジナル版がリリースされたのは20年くらい前だったと思いますがいかがでしょうか？

@ayanakajima3 I adore how this ova looked. It's too bad it did not continue.

Yes. Around 2000, I was approached about making a live-action adaptation. However, since MT was no longer solely mine, the project never came to fruition.

@The4thTurtleNyC I know it's a matter of personal preference but I personally wouldn't mind "a new canvas" if the new canvas looked good. David's suit was baggy, unappealing and overall the film featured what I'd call weak cinematography.

The reality is that these are the people who refuse to move on. They are mentally stuck on a movie from 1979. The theme, the need for the suit to look exactly the same, etc. They refuse to allow an artist to paint their own picture; they want them to use old paints on a new canvas and wonder why people didn’t show up.

@Chris_novas Everything that isn't Char's and Sayla's Childhood or the former's days at the academy, I enjoy quite a bit. It also helps that YAS is an absolute master artist. It's such a shame that since Char is the golden goose the ovas were about the one thing I didn't enjoy.

ガンダムORIGINはアリ派とナシ派で結構分かれてるのは知ってるんですが 個人的には好きなんでアリ派なんだ、許してくれ…… 「シャアのマザコン」云々の設定が色々腑に落ちて好きなんだ……

The Four Horsemen of Adaptations so bad, you wonder why the creators didn't just call them literally anything else as they are NOTHING like their source material, and of course they are Netflix Adaptations.

@aprelline Eso es porque, tristemente, muchos espectadores sufren de un problema que también se da con el cine live-action pero exacerbado: la mayoría simplemente no tiene fácil acceso/no quiere ver cosas "viejas". Sólo ven lo que sienten "de su época" o lo que le ponen enfrente.

A lot of people ignore it but Fushigi Yuugi walked so that Akatsuki no Yona could fly. There's an incredible amount of similarities between the 2 works and the fans of one should definitely consider watching/ reading the other

@HorrorCarnival He's an amazing actor but this is a terrible scene imo. At least it instantly broke my inmmersion.

In the 2026 film 28 Years Later: The Bone Temple, Ralph Fiennes gives a high-octane performance as Dr. Ian Kelson. In a standout scene, he delivers a pyrotechnic-fueled interpretive dance to Iron Maiden’s "The Number of the Beast".

@Slifer__Slacker This looks great. Kinda reminds me of Basilisk's manga art.

remember when pre-story Ryoma met Cutie Honey while training in Super Karate and tore what is essentially a bunch of Shocker Kaijin to shreds with his bare hands
