Re: The Official Gundam SEED FREEDOM Anime Thread Mk I

Fukuda didn't hire any of his staff writers from DESTINY to work on FREEDOM, which I think was a mistake but a PREQUEL that actually has 2 key writers from Destiny and one who worked on Stargazer that includes new characters that didn't appear in the movie is strange. I definitely see a sequel to FR...

Re: Fukudas best work

well he made it in the industry, while FREEDOM was not a well thought out movie and doesn't feel necessary , it did well. I actually wish some of his other works were more accessible Denoh and Cyber Formula GPX, Cross Ange and he posts stuff about those series on twitter so it's not just SEED that h...

Re: Ichirō Ōkouchi best work

So who are considered the best mecha writers outside of Tomino, Kawamori, Hideako Anno, granted there directors. Keiko Nobumoto of Cowboy Bebop, but then Watanabe did prove he could fufilll his vision with Samurai Champloo writing more on that show.

Re: Fukudas best work

With Fukudas next work announced, Gundam Seed ZERO, and Grendizer finished, how would you rank his work?

Chiaki Konaka

Is there a theme that most of the decent mecha 90s writers write for fanservice manga adapations, do they need more work. Konaka is more know for Big O, LAIN and Digimon Season 3 along with it's non canon audio drama, RahXephon then he works on Air Gear

Re: Reconguista Movies.

It's weird there was no push for this despite being a gundam property and a Tomino work, hopefully Crunchyroll will release this

Yosuke Kuroda best works

I was a huge fan of this guys work but most of his early works seem like slowburns now. I rewatched Trigun, it was enjoyable and had a great finale but it felt generic western in the first half and they really relied on the western setting of no food or water and they could've gotten into more of th...

Ichirō Ōkouchi best work

Ichirō Ōkouchi is famous for Code Geass, and with Grendizer U recently finished up, I'd like to know thoughts on this screenwriter, seems to have a mixed bag as a resume , he did the Negima adapation! but has some solid mecha on his resume

Re: The Official Gundam SEED FREEDOM Anime Thread Mk I

Thanks for the info, sounds promising Chiaki Morosawa never wrote for anime until meeting Fukuda which I think helped SEED, FREEDOM felt too influenced by later mecha anime but tried to capture the old SEED style which hurt the product, ZERO seems more untouched and will fit CE better.

Re: Fukudas best work

I'm baffled that it was written by Chiaki Morosawa and Shigeru Morita and might actually be good, Fukuda did not invite any of the staff writers from SEED and DESTINY to write FREEDOM, also Shigeru Morita wrote the pretty good Stargazer ONA. The fact it was boarded and written as an after DESTINY pr...

Re: Grendizer U (TV) News

Didn't get much fanfare online, wondering what Fukudas next work will be? I'm hoping he does an ova of something, I don't want to say I was letdown by the show it's hard to place the show, it was a super robot show with melodrama. I wasn't as entertained as I was with Cross Ange and Gundam SEED, tho...

Re: Grendizer U (TV) News

Grendizer U surprisingly wasn't aiming to be a series you can spinoff like Fukudas other works, wonder why it had the elements and they went for a Hamlet type ending
