Thread 281455685

why did GQuuuuuuX do so well compared to previous gundam originals?
were GWitch and IBO that shit?

>>281455685 (OP)
Probably nostalgiawank and getting people into the UC backlog. Because the new trio's story was the biggest pile of underdeveloped dreck I've ever seen.

Yuri

Because it's a original work but also a pathetic baby alternate retelling of the original series meant to appeal to retarded manchild who just want to see their favorite characters showing up and clapping, regardless of how insulting the work is to the original series, there is no practical difference from this series to stuff like Dragon Ball Daima or Higurashi Gou. It's selling more because the mecha designs are mostly just alternate versions of already popular gunpla rather than originals.

>>281455685 (OP)

>>281455685 (OP)
GQuuuuuuX had strong initial interest because normalfags are programmed to praise anything involving Hideaki Anno. GQuuuuuuX would ultimately be the worst reviewed Gundam TV series since X by the time the final episode aired.

>>281455685 (OP)
The master did it again.

Seethe, cope, rope. CHADnno won.

Based

>>281455685 (OP)
Probably because it had Hoshimachi Suisei

>>281456293
basically this.

>>281455685 (OP)
That's the result of a very very hot MC, the plot is mediocre, but Machu became one of the top 3 female gundam girls of all time

>>281456293
Unironicaly this, Char is 90% of Gundam's appeal

>>281455685 (OP)
Gee, i dunno.

>>281456293
Four Vaginas pushing the entire franchise again.

>"Gwitch sale is good because yuri, not because covid"

>>281456465
>NOSTALGIA SELLS
I agree.

When are we getting another gundam show that is actually good and earns itself a fanbase that sticks around for decades? This lower episode count shit really fucked them, last show i really fucked with was 00

>>281456476
>tanking the entire IP because he didn't have enough control and pushed out more nostalgiaball slop from Toriyama's last breath
I kid you not, Gundam is raping both One Piece and Dragon Ball as we speak.
No wonder he got fired.

>>281456293
This is the actual answer.

>>281456420

>>281456483
Making a 100 episode Gundam anime in 2025 is too much of a risk from financial point of view. Only shit like Pokemon can pull it off.

>>281455685 (OP)
Machu won.

>>281456598
Usually 50 episodes is the norm for Gundam.

>>281456598
Thats sad, soon enough 12 episode series will be too much for japan

Animation is way easier now with digital, but somehow everything is just way more expensive despite being less labor intense.

>>281456483
08 was the last good Gundam

This is the most overhyped dogwater opinion and I am sick of hearing it.

Hayato deserved to die for being an abuser and punk ass bitch.

How did this retard become one of the single most beloved anime characters ever made?

>>281456679
That has to be bullshit, its just no one is spending time trying to innovate the animation process. Japan is fucking itself with the amount of pointless garbage is being adapted every season. Look at ufotable, their future for the next 5-8 years is animating demon slayer garbage.

>>281456821
Really good design. As a character he doesnt get milked to death either in the actual source material. Dying in CCA was a good end

>>281456813
>abuser
What fucking drugs are you on?

>>281456856
Yes and no. He has gotten the Darth Vader treatment in a lot of ways, like The Origin. Did we really need to know this characters entire backstory?

origin is retarded but i dont think backstory is a problem. I still had fun with it too

>So Gundam really started to become popular even before GW during the COVID period
This really indicates that the shows served as exposure not the main reason it’s becoming popular again

>>281455685 (OP)
Nostalgia, build up from recent popularity boosts, and Studio Khara's name/reputation. I'm sure there was a lot of disappointment for it as well though since it didn't really hit the nostalgia well, wasn't much like IBO and WfM, and retards got tricked into thinking Khara ment Anno when he had little to do with it. It was alright at least though, even if I was mostly there for nostalgic reasons I knew going in that it wouldn't really do much of the nostalgia stuff well amd that it wouldn't be a fun as Gihren's Greed Zeon victory timelines.

I fucking hated G Witch, but I didn’t make it past the prologue so maybe it got better? I also hated Code Geass. The guy can't write nuanced characters for shit.

IBO was entertaining. G witch was cringe despite the great production values. You'd think with Ukraine and Gaza they'd at least study human misery just by watching the (right) news. Tomino put it well, these new writers just don't have what it takes to write. I'm not planning on watching this show. Anno is a fucking hack and Tomino is probably very disappointed. Anno seemed to get it back when they did the interview about Char's counterattack. But since he has become a straight up joke.

>>281455685 (OP)
It appeals to faggots, fujos the worst types of manchildren who watch shit like pokemon, which seems to be where they got their style from.

>>281458677
They literally hired the Pokémon guy, yes. Congratulations.

I just dont know what they were thinking, the main trio for gqux is so shit and underdeveloped. They got nothing

>>281455685 (OP)
It had Machu

>>281458785
I feel this way about Witch From Mercury and people cream themselves over those characters.

>>281458703
That explains why whenever I look at a screenshot/webm of GQuuuuuuX it doesn't feel anything at all like Gundam.

>>281458806
Its worse in gquux, nyan machu and the the blue fag whose name i already cant remember got nothing whatsoever. What was even the point, might as well delete them and make a 13 episode long char wank

>>281455685 (OP)
My beloved carried the show until the last couple episodes' nonsense.

>>281455685 (OP)
>mc canonically wore lewd whore lingerie
>instant win
It's a mystery

>>281456294
The best thing about Machu was her sex appeal. Pokemon artist just keeps on delivering.

>>281456483
GQuuuuuux was a good series. Way ahead of turds like thunderbolt and Gwitch.

>>281455685 (OP)
Gbitch had a very poorly written story,borderline stupid, i guess yuriniggers are too stupid for a proper story
gQuuuuuux was pure kino, no spoonfeeding the retards, fairly deep themes etc

>>281457714
There was a resurgence for model kits because a lot of japanese YouTubers started to doing videos about assembling them on streams. That was enough to reignite the interest on new generations.

>>281460503
I was watching only for her by the end of the show.

>>281456281
He can't keep getting away with it.

Wake me up when those numbers say they were from gqux merch.

>>281455685 (OP)
Wait for the massive drop in next quarter. GQ started incredibly strong then imploded.

If you know a story is going to be 12 episodes then why the fuck can't you pace it correctly? Do you not know what a four act structure is? You couldn't dedicate three episodes to each act?

>>281462405
I haven't finished GQX yet but it feels like the "main" characters have absolutely no plot going on.
Chalia and Xavier feel like they actually had things going on with recovering the GQX and the plan to assassinate one of the Zabis, while Machu and the other two are just fucking about even worse than GWitch's "duel but nothing happens and nobody dies" time wasting.

>>281462405
They wanted to do too much. Multiverse bullshit was completely unnecessary.

>>281462572
The multiverse bullshit was the only good part.

>>281456691
00 sucks dude.

Iron-Blooded Orphans was just that bad. Mari Okada is only capable of writing melodrama bullshit.

Witch of Mercury is miles above Gquux despite the nostalgia.

It felt like this show was divisive in the west. Some people really liked it, some really did not. Was it divisive among old timers and newcomers or was it more consistent among them?

>>281455685 (OP)
GQuuuuuX was the shoujo Gundam that GWitch should be but the producers got cold feet

>>281465885
I wager that the people who didn't like it fall into 3 main camps:
>people whose first gundam series was GQX
>people whose secon gundam series was GQX
>people who wanted GQX to be something completely different

>>281465908
It wasn't shoujo at all.

>>281465944
>I WANT COCK COCK DICK IN MY MOUTH PENIS I HAVE NO SELF RESPECT

Looks shoujo to me

>>281455998
Yes, that's what happens. Insert yuri, it automatically owns the entire world.

>>281456749
?????

>>281455685 (OP)
Pokemon designer made a busty tomboy with meme faces and a flat kuudere, as well as a Kaworu clone. This led to an explosion of fanart (mostly porn).

All the suits were mods of UC classic suits, save a few,

Endless Char wank. Japan loves Char more than anything. He's the Charizard of Gundam.

That said it looks like the merch has completely died, whereas GWitch is still getting Bandai Premium kits. When the show ends up as shallow as it was, with no manga spinoff material or anything to build off of, you kind of just are left with the original run of merch, which is why Bandai is now heavily promoting Wing's anniversary instead.

>>281465885
It ended up with bad to middling reviews on JP stream sites. They hated the ending.

I cannot stop laughing over much Gqux makes tourists from /v/ seethe, it being successful on top of being a good show is just perfect

Explain the appeal of Witch From Mercury to somebody in their mid 30s. I watched one episode and bailed because I hated the retarded MC and the female Char clone everyone thought was well written but sucked ass.

>>281463406
Cope harder, yurifag. GQuuuuux was the mainstream hit Sunrise looked for many years. GWitch is only for ronery men

>>281466166
>tourists from /v/
The fuck are you talking about? I thought it was GWitches calling it a hetflop.

>>281466249
GWitch is appealing to men jerking off to the moe girls and sexually confused people watching for representation

>>281466318
That sort of shitposting is all a tourist illusion, neither side actually exists

>>281465885
>It felt like this show was divisive in the west
I think it was just a REALLY loud minority of shitposters here.

>>281466249
>Explain the appeal of Witch From Mercury to somebody in their mid 30s.
Ideally you want your mecha protagonist to be a man with deep affection for his machine and autism. An autistic girl piloting her sister is a logical extension of that idea, if the writers didn't pussy out Calibarn would have Mio inside and the series would end with symbolic fight between mother riding her daughter to fight her other daughter riding her wife.
But that would rise too many eyebrows so we got what we got.
t.33yo

>>281466249
>female Char clone
only appears for 3 seconds with no lines in episode 1. So your opinion on how she's written is worthless.

>>281465975
>I have all these hundreds of suitors, but I've already had sex a thousand times. I need a break.
That's shoujo. The other variant involves rape fantasies, but fuck you. We're not talking about that.
NTA, btw.

>>281466745
I feel like all of Witch From Mercury is worthless and no amount of reading about The Tempest on Wikipedia will change that.

>>281466600
The same shitposts were made on reddit too, right down to using the same buzzwords like pacing or the oddly specific “room to breathe.” What we see with how the tourists are trying to change the otaku subculture’s standards here is just a microcosm of the reactionary fundamentalist siege on civilization. Anti-intellectualism is the common mark identifying such efforts to impose censorship regimes within cultural production and reception. That’s why there’s always the constant flow of threads trying to shit on every established masterpiece that made /a/ burn in the past.

Why didn't Witch get as many people into GQuuuuuuX did?

>>281467058
This reads like something a Rebuilds character would say lmao. Coincidentally it also sums up what I hated about the last few GQuack episodes. The show mostly devolved into random bullshit happening with a character observing said bullshit while pulling technobabble nonsense live commentary out of their ass and everyone acting like they've just said the most profound thing ever. Like they were trying to out-bullshit the CCA ending

>>281467298
I really wonder if that stuff is a change from the VA reactions to the script saying that they didn’t get it. There’s no other reason to have Challia mention an Endymion unit unless all the other circumstance and symbolism wasn’t enough to make it clear that the Gqux was resonating with Amuro’s will. Like if the script just says “insert a cut of a goose,” maybe it’s not obvious. I think the goose is even more amusingly blunt than the technobabble. It’s not really batshit at all, it’s very direct and forward, zero misdirection and lots of dialogue that tells the audience how to interpret things. People are just lazy and don’t like what the series has to say about reality so it’s easy enough to disconnect that neuron.

>>281465678
Idk, I felt Machu was a less compelling character.

>>281466249
I saw that one of the people that worked on Kiznaiver had a leadership position, that was enough for me to not pick it up.

>>281456821
Because the mask makes him cool and mysterious. Plus a lot of people miss the forest for the trees and think he's some kind of heroic figure taking Zeon down from the inside out of revenge for his father. Which is not what's actually happening, he's just using that as an excuse for his own self-interest.

>>281455685 (OP)

How is it compared to the NGE rebuilds ?

>>281455685 (OP)
Interesting amalgam of shit for newcomers(Take character designs, very modern ost) and havign a lot of fanservice for franchise veterans.

>>281469299
Guel attracted female viewers but they all dropped the show after he lost and since then stick to doujins and fanarts. In a recent event, Guesule got more doujins than Sulemio

>>281470085
You're delusional. It was made public in a recent event. Top was Athrun/Cagalli, followed by Kira/Lacus. Guesule was the most popular GWitch's pairing

>>281469968
That’s how yuri works, the less that’s shown the more kino it is. A blank sheet of paper is the most yuri thing in the world, that’s why you use scissors to cut paper. Rock paper scissors is slightly less yuri because it depicts boobs, a pure body, and open legs. It’s a very yuri game though, as you can imagine from throwing scissors versus scissors or docking with rocks. Just like boobs, every one’s fist is a different size and shape. Very yuri.

Machu owes me sex.

>>281470190
You sound like a schizo

>>281470190
>That’s how yuri works, the less that’s shown the more kino it is.
I really hope you're just baiting for replies. People that think like you is why they got away with that awful second cour and that awful climax.
A fucking wedding ring. We got a fucking wedding ring. Anyone at all that excuses that show's ending out of some misplaced desire to defend yuri really needs to rethink their shit.

>>281470509
What's wrong with a wedding ring? Weird butthurt.

>>281470528
>What's wrong with a wedding ring?
It's a way to get away with not actually showing romance.

>>281470509
NTA but thats basically how it works because this shit keeps working

>>281456537
Haman wasn't even in it ...

>>281470509
Sorry I don’t make the rules, the yuri elders set it up. Personally I do prefer sweat soaked impure yuri where there’s no ambiguity because everyone is always saying “I love you I love you I love you” while having sex on screen but the mainstream industry has no stomach for that sort of thing.

>>281470208
She's so erotic it's not fair

>>281470863
Look I'll take hand holding, a few kisses and Mio inside the goddamn cockpit on Suletta's lap while something actiony happens on screen.
What we DID get though, was bullshit.

>>281470179

It’s not even the most popular het Suletta ship (that honor goes to SuleEl4n) let alone the most popular GWitch ship in general lol

>why did GQuuuuuuX do so well compared to previous gundam originals?
what the hell are you talking about? the franchise got a (economical) renascence thanks to witch with record sales and I imagine is just carrying the wave of new relevance not that any of that matters since anything that isn't part of the uc is irrelevant at best, but most often than not just a disgrace to the franchise

>>281475384

I want to do an infinite amount of sexual things to Machu.

>>281469112
None of them even has real yuri

>>281470179
Except Kira and Lacus ships sulemio, anon. You're making Suletta sad for shipping her with the Gorilla guy.

Isn't wfm still popular until now?

>>281455685 (OP)
Fanfiction, utterly insane pretty early on. They got the what-if old crowd and the youngins who were told early they didn't NEED UC knowledge to watch a UC show.

The names attached to production probably also helped.

>>281469899
Ahh yes, even Sasuke x Naruto is more popular and has more doujins than Naruto x Hinata. Stop being so jealous about canon couples, my dude.

>GQuuuuuuX would ultimately be the worst reviewed Gundam TV series since X

Which is curious because X is pretty decent and not nearly as bad as trash like SEED n sneed.

>>281466297
It's one of those weird things with different audience. Gcucks is apparently more successful in Japan while Gwitch is more successful globally.

>>281478150
It's not the second most popular unless you only consider three series, the raise in 2022 came before it aired and the series itself made no notable impact.

>>281478468
And for precisely the reasons you think it was bad, it found a passionate out-demographic audience who rated it highly.

>>281467544
The issue is that people today don't really have the knowledge to parse that sort of highly referential dialogue. It's a style that's intentionally very dense, where reference and terminology are used as shorthand to draw attention to ideas.

Yeah, they were

>>281456821
Because he's a very well written character and the source of the antagonist with that "cool" and "badass" exterior but a human-like murkiness inside that many other japanese works have tried to execute and failed, like Muzan from KnY He's still better than Sukuna or AfO

It was my first Gundam and I loved it honestly made me watch the whole series

However I also love chalia so if you wanted anything else I can understand why people hate it

>>281466914
Would Commander Suletta and Mistress Miorine change your mind?

No, I seriously fucking hate them. They have no personality other than likeable.

I unironically think Reccoa Londe is one of the best written female characters in anime.

>>281483835
The joke is that IBO is the one where the girls were married to raise Mikazuki's child together.

>>281456293
This. Every other answer is a cope. He's Gundam's Darth Vader.

>>281479009
By anime reviewers. They all are trannies, feminists and s-o-is

>>281484269
And just like Vader they also gave him a shitty prequel story!

>>281484249
The joke is on him because Nagai and Okada stated multiple times that Atra and Kudelia are super straight and the marriage is a sham

How the fuck did a painfully mediocre show like G-Witch get so popular?

>>281455685 (OP)
Nostalgiawank (especially at the end, holy fuck), Take's incredible designs, and despite being a trainwreck story-wise, watching it week to week was a blast, Enokido knows how to keep the audience entertained. Its biggest flaw was such a short length, so much was clearly crammed in or skipped altogether. Will it get a sequel though? That's the real question. G-Witch, despite its success, never had a follow-up.

>>281484348
It's popular on woke echochambers.

>>281484449
Sunrise wanted to attract young new audience with GWitch and it was followed mostly by middle-aged men. Meanwhile GQuuuuux broke into the mainstream, It's plausible GQuuuuux will get a sequel. Tsurumaki and Enokido are available so I don't see why it can't be done

>>281484518
I noticed that it is real popular with a younger demographic. I am in my mid 30s, and I admit I am being way too hard on it, but I feel like I am being gaslit when people talk about how amazing it is.

>>281484571
It's not amazing but it was fun and unfortunately that's all it needs nowadays something fun and meme able

However the difference is the show versus the movie. The movie cut was a lot different than the show.

>>281484564
>GWitch and it was followed mostly by middle-aged men
What? Really? I feel like all the G-Witch fans are like high school and college age. Like your normal UC fan is mid 30s to late 40s.

I have only been a Gundam fan for a decade and ate at the café in Akihabara twice before it closed so what the fuck do I know maybe I am full of shit.

>>281484598
Witch From Mercury had a movie cut?

>>281484249
Considering it's not yuri, they're more like in poly relationship.

My favorite thing was going into Witch From Mercury threads, having people talk about how deep Shakespeare is, and then ask those same people what an iamb or a couplet is and have them not know.

Some of y'all are honestly stupid as balls.

>>281484627
>>281484571
Proof? In the Gwitch fan events in Japan, like 85% of the attendance are creepy men

>>281484627
>What? Really?
>Literally selling some girly stuffs like jewelries style, tomato kits, and Miorine's stockings
Not really

>>281484810
Their wives/girlfriends told them to go and buy sulemio collections obviously.

>>281484816
GWitch was well-accepted by the LGBT crowd in Japan. During a Bandai meeting, a crossdreser and a Japanese lesbian activist infiltrated to demand Sulemio to be canonized (it was after Bandai said it was open to interpretation)

>>281485198
That's not what I was referring but okay

>Well accepted
Uh yeah, Suletta literally acts like a husband in every games.

>>281484727
They're not in a relationship at all, they're simply staying together for the kid.

>>281485277
Lesbians and trannies are buying Sulemio girly merchandise. They're a small but very loyal demographic.

>>281485396
If it's small that means even straight/bi girls are buying them. There's literally straight couples who have bought sulemios on youtube.

>>281461014
>Thunderbolt was a good series. Way ahead of turds like GQuuuuuux and Gwitch
FTFY

>>281455685 (OP)
Does that reflect the actual popularity of GQuuuuuuX, or only the hype that preceeded it? Because the hype was huge, the movie in particular did really well, but then all of that deflated once the show aired.

>>281483111
Heero would be the scent of failed suicide attemps, Mikazuki would be old dates and musky stank, Kira would be frankincense and myrrh, Suletta would be tomatoes, Machu would be whatever is popular with girls in Tokyo right now, Char would be curry and mother issues, Amuro would be something subdued but with a touch of mechanical lubricants, Kamille would be the girliest thing imaginable but for men, Judau would be a jewish bakery, Domon would be cherries, plums, and Japanese nationalism, Bellri would be toilet and incestuous lust, Setsuna would be Gundam.
Some of these are easier to make jokes of than others.

>>281472320
Even you don’t believe that inane bullshit

>>281484564
>gcucks broke into the mainstream but not gwitch
You are either delusional or this is some Japan only thing and outside of Japan the opposite is true.

>>281481492
imagine the smell

>>281489574
Do you think the production facilities and experts for all of that antique shit still exist? It doesn’t matter if you have the blue prints and the theories if you don’t have an industry. It’s the exact same for old forms of anime production. Get ready to pull cameras out of museums. What is the total production capacity for cells right now, probably low since there’s no demand. Is that paint supplier still in business? How many assistants and technicians are trained to work all the material that’s being drawn on?

>>281489574
>>281456836
You don't get it, replace "tools" with "people/experts", does that make sense to you now?

>>281489585
It's likely japan only thing otherwise that chart won't show sudden rise

>>281455685 (OP)

GQuuuuuuX actually crashed and burned so hard it might damage the brand.

Seriously, it's hard to find a popular anime with japanese ratings so shit. Literally everybody hated the second half. In Japan more than everywhere else.

>>281484564
You are retarded and keep spewing the same bullshit over and over again. WFM was insanely popular among young people and gave Gundam a ton of new fans.

>>281455685 (OP)
Got oldies butt to the market again

>>281456465
>Gwitch sale is good because yuri, not because covid
Above trend shows not that much

>>281489585
