GCucks is a huge success

/m/ BTFO once again

CHADnno is the only thing keeping this franchise off life support

Awesome.

Stopped reading there, he was hardly involved with the production committee at all and only really came up with a backstory for episode 2. That being said those sales don’t lie

what is this even supposed to be?

>>23446091
Not counting inflation

>launch show with a good day 1 english dub worldwide on a major video streaming service
>it does a lot better numbers worldwide than the japanese-first shows
incredible, amazing, now if only they would ship more gunpla kits worldwide also. gqx and witch kits are always out of stock at every retailer I check.

>>23446091
Proof Iron Blooded Ovaries messed up the franchise royally.

Do yourself and everyone else a favor and slit your wrists, but do it vertically instead of horizontal.

>>23446096
The yen was stagnant for decades and post-covid it's still not all that different, 100 yen in 2013 is 118 yen now. Even counting inflation none of them had a higher quarter than GQuuuuuux nor is it close.

Most of that profit is actually coming from G Generation Eternal (though gquuuuuux did do great)

>>23446134
Kill yourself drool.

>>23446182
Also the TCG

>>23446182
Most of it is from Gunpla.

>>23446211
When exactly did anime become mainstream and when did this website become infected with casuals? COVID?

>>23446215
I don't understand what makes Witch From Mercury good. It is maybe the most mediocre overrated dogshit show I have seen since Avatar the Last Airbender. Is it because it is mostly liked by younger people in their teens and 20s or whatever?

>>23446230
>that pic
didn't know that children post on /m/

>>23446235
If you know who those two characters in that pic are there is a good chance you remember where you were on 9/11.

>>23446236
Kids definitely know who those faggots are and did not draw them to make their pedo friends proud.

>>23446249
You sure know a lot more about children and pedophiles than I do. Why am I not surprised?

its funnier to post an out of context chart in moonrunes and then make shit up

>>23446211
only sub-literate burgers say that.

>>23446230
Mecha nerds will pay attention to a main Gundam season regardless of how much they cry about it and a female protagonist attracts both women and moebuta.

>>23446230
even in the 90s, when english dubs were terrible, they were always more popular among global audiences. Obviously anyone reading this thread is a more discerning and refined sort of person who wouldn't stoop so low, but only a delusional fan would refuse to admit that english dubs are easier to get into for casual viewers I watched awful dubs in the 90s, and I watch dubs now :^)

>>23446263

Bump

>>23446215
The kits are better than ever and more people are getting into gunpla since COVID happened so it makes sense.

>>23446367
It's already in English. They never give specific numbers for the series. This is what they say about Qguuuuuux specifically though. Only other Gundam mentioned for the relevant quarter is that Eternal had a solid launch.

>>23446477
Apt reddit meme.

>>23446890
>t. tominocuck
At least CHADnno did not get cucking by Nagano unliking tominocuck.

>>23446882
they did mention the record high perfomance for hobby business and gave a shout-out to the gundam TCG, one piece TCG, tamagotchi and precure
anyone attributing this to Gqx is a monkey

>>23446607
Who implied otherwise?

>>23446916
Yeah it's just a coincidence Gundam sales skyrocketed when Cucks was airing everyone picked those exact 12 weeks to start buying uhh 00 kits yeah that's it

>>23446006 (OP)
shut the fuck up shut the fuck up SHUT THE FUCK UP YOURE WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WR)OGN!

>>23447062
can you show me the data on model kit sales?

>>23447075
NTA but they did directly credit gqux for the current surge

I'm buying all the Gquux kits when Fred gets back in stock.

>>23447075
Are you retarded enough to actually think it's a coincidence

>>23446006 (OP)
The reason for the massive spike is Gundam Seed Freedom being released. Not Gquuux. Seed boosted Gundam sales massively.

>>23448144
I want a gquuuuuux gelgoog but I've literally never seen one in stock.

>>23446006 (OP)
great, now prepare for even more UC nostalgiawank

>>23447954
They said gqx helped, ofc it did, its a new gundam show, but most of the surge in hobby stuff was due to TCG shit
G Generation got an equal shoutout

>>23448749
You have yet to show numbers for model kit sales

>>23446136
dumb readlet retard is dumb

>>23446230
ATLA is good till the last season with the asspull

>>23446196
>TCG
TCG only came out in July, the graph is up to June.

>>23446182
Gundam is 654, of that 654 Toys/Hobby items is 254. It's been publicized that G Generation Eternal made 100 million USD in the first 2 months. However that's only 14.6 when converted back into JPY. So yes this 654 is mostly contribution from merchandise sales, not the video game.

>>23449004
https://www.gundam-gcg.com/en/news/004.html

>TC Released July 2025.

The results being published only go up to June 2025.

GIVE ME THE HAMBRABI KIT YOU FUCKING COWARDS

>>23450688
if you wanna be really granular G Eternal had made around 120 million up until june, so it would be closer to 17.6, which would leave the rest at around 47.8, which is still really good mind you, GQX made a lot ot money, but it would be a lot more in line with what you'd expect from a new gundam release, even a succesful one, which the previous forecast confirms since the sales in toys and hobby business are pretty close with what they had predicted (even if it did overperform)
The main reason for that totally obscene 80% increase is definitely Generation Eternal massively overperforming and generating a huge increase in their new half year forecast, one doing good doesnt negate the other, which is why this entire thread is retarded since its relying on people not knowing what they are seeing

gwitch more like gstink

>>23446006 (OP)
Even if it's because the show was streamed day-1 on the popular site, how the fuck can an actual normalfag sit through Quacks? It's 90% UC memberberries and assumes the viewer watched at least 79.

>>23451091
>it's because the show was streamed day-1 on the popular site
Stop coping and accept the facts already.

Can't we just be happy that gundam / the mecha genre isn't dead in 2025?

>>23451204

now watch your second one and see how bad it is

>>23452331
I already watched msg suit gundam and wfm from mercury. I liked all three but they were all pretty different.

It's bizarre how the entire show, Machu was "SHUJI SHUJI SHUJI"

>>23452331
>>23452365
Hey bot.

>>23452315
I don't understand this meme when other countries have dubs that aren't in English, but I bet all the "normies are too stupid to read subs" centered on talking about American viewers.

>>23452315
I sure do love reading shows instead of watching them

>>23452376
>>23452413
Cope.

>>23452422
ywnbj

>>23451091
Because Gundam is part of Japan's pop culture. Almost everyone there has seen one Gundam or several. Also remember Japan is still a gigantic ton of Bandai's sales contribution so it literally matters not whatthe rest of the world thinks..

>>23451091
0079 is like Original trilogy Star Wars mainstream in Japan. Everyone knows it at least from cultural osmosis if they haven't watched it.

>>23446211
>people world wide prefer...
No, it's only among the burgers who demand others to stoop to their level of being illiterate swine.

>>23451204

Aren't GQuuux and the new Wataru the only robot anime airing this year?

>>23453279
Onmyo Kaiten is airing this season.

Don't be a tourist.

>Evil Lord of an Intergalactic Empire
>Aquarion MOE
>Isekai Red
Absolutely fucking dire year
>Hathaway 2: Terrorist Boogaloo in December (Maybe January)
Theatrical release, not 'airing', and potentially not even this year
>Don't be a tourist.
Onmyo Kaiten's airing right now, and there ain't a single thread in the catalog for it. Hell, this thread is the first time it's even been mentioned on /m/ in over 2 weeks. I don't think the issue here is me not spending enough time on here

>>23453321
Start a thread for it. It's not my fault you don't watch any anime.

>>23453328
Why would I start a thread for a show I know nothing about and haven't seen?
> you don't watch any anime
Apparently no one's watching that fucking show lmao

>>23453119
See >>23452376 I don't see you niggers complaining about Spanish, German or French. It's always when it's in English that you bring up burgers when it comes to reading subs.

>>23453336
It's a show duel has brrn trying to shill for some reason, but it's not /m/.

>>23453399
I mean, the mecha are onmyoji summons, not robots built by hands and stored in a hanger or something... but, like... they even have cockpits.

>>23453460
>>23453464
mecha designs were interesting enough but I've found the show to be grating

>>23446902
>Anno
>Not cucked
Does he know?

>>23453399
You believe it's him why exactly? To the best of my knowledge he's only been watching second seasons this anime season. If he was actually promoting it that would be more obvious.

>>23453460
looks liek theyre sorta aping nagano

>>23453511
Shut the fuck up duel, anyone can tell it's you.

>>23453582
You can't because I am not duel. You're just finger pointing and trolling.

>>23453603
Classic duelism, thanks for confirming you are him.

>>23453606
>he really is that far gone from reality
Pity.

>>23452357
you should watch Zeta Gundam and CCA

>>23448770
Freedom released January 2024, not a few weeks ago.

>>23454260
what is the gundam zeta english dub like?

>>23450688
Broham...
100 million (with an M) in USD is 14 billion (with a B) in Yen.
1 Yen is almost 2/3 of a penny.

>>23456708
bad
terrible actually, don't watch the non-original dubs

>>23446006 (OP)
>Only reason its a success is because it rides the UC setting and everyone is interested in an alternate universe where Zeon won.

>>23457131

>>23456708
>>23456906
If you've watched the TV dub of 0079, then you should be fine with the Zeta dub imo.

>>23457164
don't watch the TV dub of 0079 either

>>23457216
Then what original dub are you referring? If it's simply "watch the subs," then let him decide on his own.

>>23457223
the original Japanese dub

>>23457224
Then just say watch the original language, you autistic weeb; you're likely one of those who think every English dub is awful.

>>23457235
the jewish California dubbing scene is trash and evil, they've only produced a single digit number of good dubs ever

>>23457237
Oh, so it's more of a personal bias than actual quality, then, I can guarantee you very few would have bad things to say about Brad Swaile portrayal of Amuro.

>>23456884
?

>Gundam is 654 Billion
>254 Billion of 654 Billion is from Toys/Hobby items
>G Generation is 100 million usd, which is 14.6 Billion out of the 654 billion for the first 2 months

Are you just complaining that "B"wasn't put in the post? All the numbers are in Billions of yen.

>>23446902
Just throwing any form of made up slander at the wall

>>23457248
>personal bias
it's trash mate

>>23463476
>I think they're bad so their trash because I say so
By your logic, I bet you think Gundam Wing's dub was also trash.

>>23463585
>he likes any english dub
>at all

>>23452376
>>23453397
For your information watching Spanish, German, French and any other dubs is also retarded if you have proper subs available to you. Watching dubs is something kids do catching anime on rtl2 and toonami or something, anyone else is a retard whose reading level hasnt advanced past grade school.

>>23463678
>You will never be Japanese, Ken-sama

English site, English board. Like it or leave it.

>>23463694
>I'm a mature viewer who watches everything in their native language
And for your information, I watch both sub and dub languages, and I give credit if something dubbed in another language is as good as the original

>>23463696
Yeah specially when everyone hates english dubs lol.

Can we get over the Tomino vs. Anno shitposting?
From what I gather I think they are friends and Tomino supports Anno.

>>23485501
Tomino needs better taste in men.

>>23485508
When did I imply that Tomino was into Anno that way?

>>23446378
Easier for me to jack off to, so I'm okay with it.

>>23485508
Says who?

>>23485501
>Tomino vs. Anno shitposting?
i used to think it the annotards instigating due to hating tomino because it isn't a deconstruction of his shows. But now? i don't know anymore, mate.

They're both great artists.

>>23491601
Pretend i never posted that. And never mention it again.

B-but.... /m told me Gcucks was bad and swore it flopped because reasons???

>>23446006 (OP)
Turns out simultaneous streaming to every possible country with their respective dubs helps.

>>23493015
Yeah but most of those sales are gunpla and merchandise, which 90% of countries don't have access to.

>>23498738
>Yeah but most of those sales are gunpla and merchandise
most of the sales was G Gen which had a global server

>>23446006 (OP)
/m/ never wins.

>>23498859
Videogames aren't part of Bandai's toy and hobby division.

>>23506357
We got a great show though, that's a win for /m/.

>>23506370
That's Group Numbers, not Toys and Hobby, so it includes games. Toys and Hobby for the same period was 25.4 billion yen (group number was 65.4 billion yen).

>>23506357
Fucking GOOD

>>23498859
yeah you're right so long as you ignore the sales skyrocketing when GQuuuuuux was airing and its TV ratings being in Japan's top 10 alongside omnipresent shows like Doraemon and Precure ignore that please ignore that please please please

>>23506370
Yeah and most of the money came from the group (aka G Gen) not hobby and gunpla

>>23508162
your math is wrong

The number contributing from Games where G Gen would be counted is less than the number from Toys and Hobby.

>>23446378
They should have chosen a female writer then. Both Suletta and Machu suck as protags because they are written by waifufags who put 0 effort, because having boobs on screen is all it takes to satisfy them, so why should the audience want any different, am I right? Suletta especially is the worst Gundam MC (save for Kira in Destiny maybe).

>>23522721
Destiny Kira is the best MC.

>>23451204
Eh. There are so many old anime I need to watch that even thinking about new anime makes my head hurt

>>23522721
Depends, which kind of female writer you're asking here? Waifufag female writer or the other kind? Gundam is still a male franchise no matter how much fujos like to shitpost on X/reddit/tumblr/whatever. You wouldn't want the other kind of female writer to write for your gundam, it would be very annoying

>female writer
Do people forget the last time this happened?

>>23522959
Yep. SEED was a massive success and a highly-acclaimed show that gets daily threads on /m/ to this day. That the sequel shat its pants and disintegrated midway through can be blamed on a lot of factors, not the writer alone.

>>23508199
are you on life support or off life support right now? its a simple question that you can answer by looking at yourself
