Gundam GQuuuuuuX was a huge commercial success, according to Bandai Namco.
>Despite mixed reactions, Gundam GQuuuuuuX was a huge commercial success, according to Bandai Namco
>According to Bandai, GQuuuuuuX became the second highest grossing film in Gundam history, and the TV series established a huge fanbase.
>“We got an overwhelming amount of positive feedback. Through working on this project with Studio Khara, we were able to reach a new audience that had never been introduced to Gundam, and we were also able to bring back out main target audience – dormant Gundam fans in their 50s and over.” According to Ogata, the new entry achieved all of the company’s quantitative goals “to the maximum degree,” with exceptionally high TV and streaming platform viewership and strong merchandise revenue.

>However, the reason why the film has spread so widely and achieved such high box-office results is because Anno proposed that the first and second episodes of the TV version (the parallel episode to the first TV version of Mobile Suit Gundam, in which Char takes the Gundam) be made into a film version with the first episode in the TV version. I think Anno really thought about how he could surprise everyone and how he could get people excited about the film, and that's why he made the structure the way he did.
So they admitted that the film was a success because they lied to the audience under a false premise by nostalgiabaiting. And it's interesting how he has nothing to say about the series itself, just the movie from half a year ago.

This might be stupid to ask but we ever got a Gundam series or movie where Bandai admitted it was a failed project?
Whatever airs or streams it's always a complete success reaching new audience and great merch sales, the same was said about G-Witch but it never got another season than a sloppy manga AU now.

GWitch was legitimately a success. But with Quacks, SNEED movies, Hathaway, and even Frozen Teardrop having already been in the queue among others, it'll take a while for another GWitch show to get resources regardless of how well it did.

It's never been divisive. People are contrarian and would say that some random OVA from the 80s is their favorite Gundam series to sell themselves as true fans to online randos.

With SEED or WFM they were talking about breaking records and best gunpla sales ever here it "achieved all of the company’s quantitative goals".

Yes it was popular after the movie and until like halfway mark with TV series. But after that it was a disaster.

Severe lack of based men. No Amuro, no Char, no Judau, no Uso, no Domon, no Master Asia, no Heero, no Duo, no Athrun, no Graham Aker, no Murder Manlet and no Akihiro. Gundam will ALWAYS be a show for boys much to the dismay of yuritroons because a franchise about a giant, walking pair of legs stacked with guns, guns, guns and more guns will always appeal to boys and men with masculine tastes and hobbies. Nobody watches fucking Gundam for lesbians, moeshit and yuri. Without some cool men front and center, the main audience and potential audience for Gundam would walk away.

It's by far the most popular in the US while also being respected in Asia given that the GW30 tweet has more than 12 million views. The demand is there and it's big.

You realize that the US is still the largest consumer economy, right? No multi-million dollar company is ever content with what it currently has, they always aim for growth and they know they're leaving money on the table by ignoring Wing. As for the Toonami crowd, Heero would be popular with gen alpha and the zoomers given their love of "sigma" and "aura" memes.

AGE and X basically
AGE was supposed to be this huge multimedia project but the game got giga delayed, the show didn't go over well, and the kits didn't sell.
X was basically the end of a back to back string of Gundam series in the 90s and it wasn't doing as well as Bandai wanted so they wrapped it up about 10 episodes early. Wasn't a sudden cancellation but the final arc of the show did get a bit rushed after the rewrite.
