    ....wat? Gundam....Unicorn?

    Also Gundam has officially fucking run out of ideas, they are making a Gundam version of Romance of the Three Kingdoms, same storylines, same setting, same characters but all of the characters are Gundams instead of people.

    Last, only thing that looked interesting to me on that list was the Marvel anime remakes, might have to check that out.

    I don't understand all the fanservice the last two seasons. It's like that's all they show anymore.

    Lol. It's not just Sunrise with Gundam. There are three (!) animes based on Romance of the Three Kingdoms this season.

    I will try Senko no Night Raid, which is set in Japanese-occupied China during the 1930s. I really am interested in the probably warped Japanese point of view concerning the setting.

    And Heroman - because it's done by Bones and might be similar to Eureka Seven and Bounen no Xam'd.


    Gundam Unicorn:
    The Prologue is set at the beginning of the Universal Century - UC, and then it continues 100 years later. I think that's the reason for the "Unicorn" - and the Gundam itself has a horn like a unicorn.

    It's an ova with 6 movies/episodes of about 55 minutes each. The plot is the usual Gundam plot of the early series: Boy is accidentally involved in some mecha-action, finds a Gundam and goes on to rescue a girl. Character design and animation resemble the early series rather than the last.

    I'll have to wait for the Gundam 00 movie. :(

    Seriously doesn't look like there's anything interesting at all. Guess I'm stuck still watching only One Piece and FMA: Brotherhood. :/

    Oh, and yeah I want that 00 movie to come out too.

    What the hell is up with anime now a days?

    Things are terrible, and only one anime there looked interesting. "House of the Five Leaves"

    Iron Man trailer looks interesting, tbh. Wolverine is set to be animated also at some point.

    Lutris vouches Gundam Unicorn is going to be awesome and so far I like it. Sure it had it's moments where I felt annoyed at some of the characters but it's only the first episode.

    Decent sport anime this spring, not so much for adventure/action series though.

    Edit: I personally would have preferred it if they animated the marvel crossovers, I know, no chance of that happening but still. :(
