Thanks to UA-camrs like you I’ve officially hit 10 years of being a Gundam fan and now 5 years of being a Gunpla builder, ordering my first Perfect Grade today in the PG Exia, thank you for everything bro
My first PG was the wing zero and I loved it despite its flaws. I know that exia is gonna look amazing and if you can get the ignition mode parts it’ll look even more badass 🤩.
@@SunriseOfRaven I feel you. I love the bigger kits so I just go all out if possible but my wallet doesn’t like it 😂. Enjoy yourself and take your time cause those small tedious parts can be nerve racking.
About Mecha series with non mecha spinoffs. The manga Around Thirty Office Worker Haman-Sama is the greatest thing the Gundam franchise has made in it's 45 year long history and it's not even close
I'd like to think that he still gets vaporized but instead of a microwave vaporizer, it's gonna be a freak accident with fireworks during some kind of festival XD
Full Metal Panic Fumofu!! is a great example of a mech series that strays away from the mechs for a side story. As someone who usually hates romance, my love of FMP requires me to enjoy Fumofu. although I honestly did.
I dont see why every gundam universe does not have scale model kits; seeing as we, in our Anno Domini (gundam 00) universe, have military model kits for all of our jets, tanks, boats, firearms, and everything else in our universe. and Suletta seems like the type of girl who would build gunpla
I'm hoping we get a build fighter-esq story for that Witch from Mercury slice of life manga. So no Gundam, but plenty of *new* Gunpla. They gotta sell them model kits somehow!
Happy New Year to the Gundam Universe!!!! Love you guys, and I'm super excited to hear that MS Gundam: The Witch from Mercury is getting another new manga as I absolutely love the show as one of my top 3 favorite Gundam series!!! Really curious to see the alternative universe of the series being told!!! As for my vote between Wing Zero in TV version & Endless Waltz version, I love both designs but honestly I automatically vote for Wing Zero in its Endless Waltz form as my #1 favorite design because the angel wings are just way too gorgeous and I just love how it looks on Wing Zero!!!
About the Gundam WfM "spin-off" I can understand why they have gone this route since i literally know a bunch of people who doesn't care about the gundam and mobile suits and are more fixated on Suletta and co. to the point that they buy the merch. 😂
@@Demiurge13 Objectively incorrect actually, Bandai released the numbers back in the day and within its first 6 months of existence G Witch single-handedly doubled the franchise's lifetime earnings. 40+ years worth of money in half a year sounds pretty successful if you ask me.
@@Demiurge13 I wouldn't call them tourists...I asked them why and a solid majority of them just literally like the cute character designs, some of them even state that they would be fine watching a slice of life version of the show if it existed. Guess they got their wish. 😂
So many tourists been saying that G Witch is just a high school drama that they decided to actually make it one lmao, and I'm just thinking they should've thrown all the AUs in there
@ArchieGamez Tbh the biggest problem would be that adult relationships in Gundam are way more high school coded than the relationships the actual high school aged characters have lmao, Garrod and Tiffa out here straight chillin while Beltorchika's wanting to murder any woman that looks at Amuro funny
If it's like the G Gundam 30th anniversary we'll probably get a new side story web novel, some anniversary artwork/merch, and a RG Wing Zero TV Personally I'd love a RG Deathscythe Hell
😊Happy News Like the shirt. So many gundam stuff to pick fm. I just built my wodom gunpla looks so good. keep up the super reviews 👾 Kakarot Rock on✌️😎
Honestly, I tend to prefer the Ver Ka designs in general over the more classic 'chonk' looks, and Wing was my first Gundam show, shortly followed by Endless Waltz. From there, I caught CCA on cable, and the UC era quickly became my favorite setting.
I'm guessing they'll be included in whatever future Build series they do, assuming it's not something like Metaverse. I just don't want em skipping out on Requiem or Gquax, honestly.
@@RevanR if you want a Gundam Transformers adjacent crossover then Machine Robo, Brave Series, and Eldran series can all be substituted without any licensing problems.
@@reijigamerthankfully Takara decide what they do with the Transformers license in Japan because it's separate from that to Hasbro, they just have a shared license in co producing and releasing most toys to tackle toy costs. Takara can still their own tie ins and crossovers, which they've been doing separate to Hasbro (see Monster Hunter and Godzilla). Transformers and Gundam *could* maybe happen someday. Huge maybe though. But it's a possibility.
@@reijigamer Well Hasbro has decided it doesn’t actually want to make toys and is more interested in licensing its IPs for video games while making its own microtransaction/AI/they-don’t-really-know-but-are-sure-it-will-make-them-rich D&D client, so I don’t think them agreeing to let Transformers (and Power Rangers?) into a new SRW with international release is out of the question. The question, of course, is how much they want for it, what restrictions they'd impose, and if they’ll be such a pain to work with they’d send the dev team/publisher running away from them (like wound up happening with Larion)
With how light hearted WFM is compared to it's peers, a mechless manga seems on brand- especially for a spin off. The only major loss to the story would be the parts inspired from "The Tempest," and like you said: It wouldn't be the first time Mecha went Mechless. Besides that, now I really want some chocolate.
so even though the AU Witch From Mercury has no giant robots but they will still have sci-fi elements that are the Elan clones and Ericht clones? also probably more funny if it was a part of the Build Series where Suletta is just a Gunpla Battler, lol.
2:40 Yeah, and they suck. The only good one I remember reading was Double K, the Gurren Lagann Buddy Cop fan comics. It was so absurd it actually fitted the original series. Which means of course it was cancelled. 😭
I'll take a wait and see approach, but I don't like what I see so far. However, my initial negative impressions of g witch unfortunately ended up being true.
First of, happy new year 2025 and I'm sorry but I have to say 2024/45th anniversary was truly broke my back and I'm no longer have any interest in Gundam because of all BS stuffs such as Bandai still insulting customer as scalpers, seiyuu scandal, terrible distribution and inflated price makes me fell out of love from something that was a part of my life since 2013... I would considered watching Gundam Seed Freedom back in February of last year to be the last time I enjoyed something Gundam related because right now, I'm no longer a fan of this series... Thank you Kakarot197 for introduce me into this community, you're the best Gundamtuber...
@Peasham nah, the true point is hiss loss and fall from Grace make him get off from his high Horse. The way he become humbled is very good for a teenager character
I wish the "Mecha without mecha manga" example you gave were not two of the most "It different, it dosent focus on the mechs. It's focused on the character" shows you could find. I'm not against this WfM spin off, it should make more sense than it's actual manga aobut Minorine's Ex : /
Ive been getting the gundam chocolates every year as a gift. Yes they look cool. But that's it. They always taste like ass. They really go with the lowest quality
Lets be honest, the mechas were the least interesting part of G Witch. The characters were the most important part of the story. This is, in my opinion, the best outcome for us ad stella fans
The funny thing is in terms of most Gundam shows the mechas were most important in G Witch than in the average Gundam show. The vast majority of UC works just fine if you replace the mobile suits with any other kinda vehicle lol
.... WfM's story being able to stand alone without the MS!? Sorry, I almost died of laughters! But MAYBE they can fix the bad writting of the source material and make something good out of it.
I want them to make tanuki explicitly straight in the manga. Not because I dislike lesbians, I just think the seething it would cause would be really funny.
Only thing WoM had going for it was the suits. Take those out, and it doesnt even need the Gundam name behind it. Honestly, WoM didnt even need the Gundam name, just another generic mech title instead. :/
@Peasham To be fair, the last 3 episodes are really rushed to said the least, and there are also other problems such as rely on somthing happen by chance, like the way they know about something as important as the tomato code is borderline a joke if you think about it, the greenhouse happen to be destory but the storge happen to be safe, then that student happen to decied to help Suletta, then they happen to decied to scan the tomato for its DNA code AND they happen to decide to decode it......
@Peasham I have watched 0079、08ms、0080、0083、Z、ZZ、0093、UC、NT、Hathaway's flash、F91、OO、W、iron blood、all the build series , and most importantly others suck won't make this one any better .
@Peasham To be clear, I don't hate WFM. I watched from day one, and watched the whole show twice every week. It just that the second half is such a disappointment compared to the first half, and every time I try to say what I don't like about it, I would be labeled as all kinds of bad things ……why can't people say anything negative about this show？

my wife is excited about the new manga. Witch from Mercury was her intro and got excited for this even without gundam
2:44 Instead of insta-death by microwave vaporizer, Elan 4 will get hit by Truck-kun. Probably.
I'd like to think that he still gets vaporized but instead of a microwave vaporizer, it's gonna be a freak accident with fireworks during some kind of festival XD

Full Metal Panic Fumofu!! is a great example of a mech series that strays away from the mechs for a side story.
As someone who usually hates romance, my love of FMP requires me to enjoy Fumofu. although I honestly did.
I kinda wish WFM went more in that direction during the first season.
Fumoffu was hilarious.
I need to watch it again.
One does not simply watch FMP without watching that rugby episode… which is a part of Fumofu. (If you know… YOU KNOW.)

Happy New Year, Vincent. Thanks for all the work you put into your channel. Gundam News is always a highlight to my week.
Thanks! Happy New Year!
Happy New years and we hope that there's more Gundam news for years to come 😁😁😁😁
Happy new years!!! I can’t wait for the future content!!!
Happy New Year!
Would be funny if new WfM Manga ended up with gunpla like in build fighters or build divers in the background.
Considering all the random Gundam characters that appeared in BF a modern entry would probably have em in the background anyway lol

The Witch from Mercury manga seems odd. But on the other hand... more Miorine content.

@@Demiurge13Try telling normies that like Wfm they're tourists for simply liking it, I'm sure that will go over well.

man.. i dont think ive ever been this early. also, i cant wait to see your AoZ weapons video~

I hope us Gundam Wing fans get something great for wings 30th anniversary

Personally I'd love a RG Deathscythe Hell
@SpikeSeagull honestly I want to see a rg Sandrock kai
More witch of mercury yes please 😄😄😄😄
Finally they do what they should have fit better: just pureYuri highschool Shenanigangs. No need for Mech
Happy New Year!!!
Feels like a missed opportunity that it isn’t set at something legally distinct from Hogwarts

It was so absurd it actually fitted the original series.
Which means of course it was cancelled. 😭
Any news of a new Gundam VS coming to the states?
Wait the new Gundam comes out on the 17th of this month? damn I need to find where to preorder, BBTS shows 3rd quarter of this year
BBTS will ALWAYS show 3rd quarter. And when it gets to actually be 3rd quarter, it gets moved to 3rd quarter of NEXT year.
It's a Japan only premiere, afaik no actual release date has been given.
It's about time someone made a manga set in a japanese highschool! 😏
5:29 the gundam is so weirdly proportioned like Franky from one piece
I want the spinoff gwitch series to have a cameo of other gundam characters luke Kira, Kamille and Char
I somewhat expected that they would something like that for wfm
Happy New Year 2025
Anyway no Gunpla news?
Happy New Year!
And no, but more will probably come around the 17th when the premiere of GQux drops in Japanese theaters.
Tv version all the way.
I d rather have a continuation of Witch of Mercury tbh, which could aswell be completely without MS. Why not.
Cagalli gyatt
Ive heard a lot of hate for the new Gundam but I think it's charming..then again I just love giant robots, so I like most of them.
