The Official Gundam Build Fighters Try Anime Thread Mk I

[Zeonista]

Spoiler

>The name "Burning Gundam" was director Watada's idea. He had no idea it was also God Gundam's name in the west.

So it's just theme naming. No surprise, really.

Perhaps director Watada is a fan of VS Lamune Knight and 40?

You know it won't stop people from continuing to claim otherwise, right?

Highlights (translated by an anon):

Spoiler

>They're trying to explore more of the Gunpla side. Those who love building, those who love battling, those who love the 'military' aspect.

One of the translations needed revising so here it is

Spoiler

・前作は、作り手のビルダーと戦うファイターで分けたように
　本作は、バトル系・ミリタリー系・SD系でチームを組み、幅広いニーズに応える。
"Just like how the previous title divided the team composition to builder(Sei) and fighter(Reiji), this time it will be composed of a battle type(Burning), military type(Lightning), and SD type(Winning) to cater to a wide range of needs

On a separate note producer Ogawa says

Spoiler

fans of SD gunpla will like episode 4

Call me AkibaRed, cause I'm a frequent visitor to Delusion World.

[Mythgarr]

Hopefully, they can still focus to tell good story instead of just trying to satisfy all

[Kuruni]

Well, if they can satisfy us all, then surely there's good story in it.

[Mythgarr]

emphasis on "trying"
if they ended up satisfy us all, that would be good indeed.

Bad news:
The Official Site reported that Hirose Masashi, the VA of Ral-san, fell ill.
I wonder if they will replace him and let Ral be voiced by someone else.
Or a last minute rewrite/replace with another character, like Aker-san for example.

ARGH

[Kyuzo Aoi]

I do wish him well considering this.

By the way, would the Build Burning Gundam get a melee weapon?

[Raikoh]

By the way, would the Build Burning Gundam get a melee weapon?

I personally hope it doesn't. Too often my beloved pure fisticuffs mecha get saddled down with weapons. Do you know how many robots fight using their fists, and ONLY their fists? Not many. Even rarer are ones that actually use martial arts instead of just playing it by ear (compare, say, Ialdabaoth's fisticuffs with Heroman's).

Also, best wishes to our Ral-san. Hopefully it doesn't end up being serious.

[Kuruni]

When I heard the name Sazaki Kaoruko, I though Sunrise pull fanservice, spoil us.

No, it's trolling. Godammit...

(I actually laugh while type this though...they got me off-guard )

Site updated with the next batch of new characters

From Sekai's school:
Miyaga Taiki
Year 3 student, President of the Plamodel club. He is scheming to pull Fumina over from the Gunpla Battle club. Goes by the nickname "Kamakiri Otoko" (Mantis Man).
Shinoda Eri
Year 2 student, Vice-President of the Plamodel club. She adores President Miyaga and is fully devoted towards supporting him.

From Odessa Academy (oh lawd )
Sazaki Kaoruko
3rd-year middle school student from St. Odessa Academy, she is Sazaki Susumu's younger sister and has inherited the "Tatedamashii"(?) (soul of the shield? idk) from her brother. Her Gunpla team's name is "The Vase of the Northern Song Dynasty."
Shigere Mahiru
Student of St. Odessa Academy and member of Team Vase of the Nothern Song Dynasty. She has attended nothing but all-girls schools ever since she was in Kindergarten, and as a result, she bears some over-expectations (read: delusions) about boys.
Sano Keiko
Student of St. Odessa Academy and member of Team Vase of the Nothern Song Dynasty. A heavy internet-user, she makes heavy use of internet slang in her mannerisms and speech.

Sazaki's sister is going to be amazing. That's my prediction, and that is all I have to say for the moment.

[Kuruni]

He is scheming to pull Fumina over from the Gunpla Battle club.

...I suddenly have newtype vision (Gundam-san version) of Pixiv artists drawing hentai based on that sentence alone.

[Strike Zero]

You were not the only one.

[HellCat]

I wonder if that means he admires her skills but wants her to stop using them on Gunpla.

If one of the points they hit is 'serious' modellers who sneer at this hobby, I'll be happy as a clam.

[PrissAsagiri UK]

I'm so psyched for this.

Thanks for pulling all of this for us.

From Sekai's school:
Miyaga Taiki
Year 3 student, President of the Plamodel club. He is scheming to pull Fumina over from the Gunpla Battle club. Goes by the nickname "Kamakiri Otoko" (Mantis Man).

So it is his fate to be consumed by a female otaku? He must want Fumina-chan's mad modeling skills to finish the Girls und Panzer Forever model tank line.

Shinoda Eri
Year 2 student, Vice-President of the Plamodel club. She adores President Miyaga and is fully devoted towards supporting him.

I am quite envious of the nerdy youth of the future who can have girls hang out with them & do this kind of stuff.

From Odessa Academy (oh lawd )
Sazaki Kaoruko
3rd-year middle school student from St. Odessa Academy, she is Sazaki Susumu's younger sister and has inherited the "Tatedamashii"(?) (soul of the shield? idk) from her brother. Her Gunpla team's name is "The Vase of the Northern Song Dynasty."

I knew it, I knew it from the MS update! "Gyaa ga Gyaa!" *Ka-boom, model KO.* "Gyaa-a-a-a!!! " I hope she will be a more superior opponent than her brother.

[Kyuzo Aoi]

I guess Kaoruko would be more savvy in fighting than her brother did.

I also predict that her voice actress would be someone who would be hot-blooded enough to do it.
