Re: The Official Gundam Unicorn Anime Thread Mk IV

HOLY CRAP. That looks seriously badass.
And yeah, I am lovin' Bright's new Seiyuu - sounds exactly like the old one.
But the most awesome part of the trailer is when Banagher activates the NT-D against the Shamblo.
I like the song playing in the background, too. Not as good IMO as the last two, but still pretty great.
(More than anything though, I'd like to get ahold of the song playing in the background of the first Ep4 trailer...vocal version of the main Unicorn theme music).

Re: The Official Gundam Unicorn Anime Thread Mk IV

I've been waiting a long time to see the Shamblo animated and it looks like I won't be disappointed with its debut. You know I'm also liking Brights new voice.

Very impressive trailer I have to say.

Oh, and for those who're unaware yet, Bright's new VA is Ken Narita, you know, Mr. Orange-kun.

Yeah, Narita Ken is doing pretty good. I guess he was on the top of the list after being cast as Saitou in the new Rurouni Kenshin OVAs.

Re: The Official Gundam Unicorn Anime Thread Mk IV

I must say, they definitely picked the right guy to do Bright's voice. For the first 2 seconds of his voicing, I was like "HUH? Are they using old voice recordings?!" :D

Is that a Kapool at the beginning of the trailer?

I'm sure it'll be on an OST... eventually. We still haven't gotten the insert song from the last episode though so it could be a while.

Nice OST 2 is finally coming down the pipe. Can't wait to hear the tracks.

And the Trailer was awesome. I dig Shamblo's cockpit design, it looks pretty different. Love the detail on the old MS's appearing. And Unicorn with double gattling guns under his shield looks awesome (wish the bloody MG could do that -__-).

If you want to get technical, and I do want to get technical, it's a Capule. Kapool is the Turn A derivative.

Re: The Official Gundam Unicorn Anime Thread Mk IV

Okay, that trailer was pretty amazing, I'm definitely keen on a lot of these "classic" MS getting what could only be described as an HD Makeover for HD (so says the Department of Redundancy Department at least), and the Shambles (for that is what I shall name it forever more) looks pretty brilliant too, both inside and out. Also quite interested in seeing Ra Cailum on Earth, and Banagher activating NT-D of his own will, by the looks of it.

The one thing I'm not keen on, though, is how Bright looks. He sounds absolutely fine, based on my vague recollection of his previous Japanese voice, but he doesn't quite look right to me - which is odd, since the character art on the Unicorn website looks fine. Could just be me, mind you.

Still, can't wait for episode 4, bring it on!

He's certainly looking much more haggard than usual. Also seems like he's let himself go somewhat over the last three years. Before now we've seen him with determined, focused eyes. His features here tell me that the stress of the front line have really started getting to him.

So are we just getting the Battle of Dakar, with Torrington just as a subplot?

HUGE SPOILERS!!
Spoiler
They have profoundly altered the Earth Arc, the OVA starts with Amphibious MS attacking Dakar(Capule and Juagg in PV), they fight EFF MS until the Shamblo rises from the sea and fires its Mouth Mega Particle Cannon delivering massive damage to the city, after this the Zeon retreat from Dakar. Next is some interaction between Liddy and Mineba and his father, Liddy gets rejected by Mineba and is sent to the Ra Cailum. Some dialogue between Bright and Ronan Marcenas. Banaji and Zinnerman trip through the desert to seek help to release the Garencieres, cause it's stuck on sand. They arrive at the Zeon Remnant Base, there they meet Loni and Kirks, they chat with Frontal about attacking Torrington. Before this part Martha shows a wrecked MP Qubley to Marida at Augusta. Kirks contacts the Zeon spread around the world for this attack, some are using the Albion as a base. Meanwhile Lidy arrives at the Ra Cailum and is greeted by Bright who shows him his room with photographs of Amuro and other heroes from past wars. The Zeon recover the Garencieres and the mechanic arms the Unicorn with the beam gatlings. Torrington attack commences: Kirks is sniping from a Fat Uncle, Amphibious MS arrive from the shore but are raped by a badass Byalant. Zeon hover MS vs EFF artillery MS. Shamblo appears on the city and starts the carnage. Tristars sortie from Ra Cailum with Lidy ahead of them. Banaji fights Zinerman to try to stop the Shamblo. Banaji sorties and tries to talk to Loni and even fires 4 Beam Magnum shots, to no avail. Lidy and Tristar arrive and start fighting back. Banaji continues to try to talk to Loni, even opening his cockpit, to no avail again. Shamblo grabs the Unicorn and Lidy saves him, per PV. Kirks is killed and Loni gets even more enraged, Unicorn and Delta Plus team to defeat the Shamblo, they fail. After more talking, and newtype voodoo they finally get a chance to kill Loni. Lidy fires the Beam Magnum and finally defeats it, the Delta Plus arm is damaged from the recoil. Banaji cries but suddenly the Banshee falls from the sky. THE END.

I just hope Riddhe doesn't get all pooper-peeved over Mineva dumping him for Banagher this time around. I actually kind of like him so far, and getting mad over Syam killing his grandfather and Banagher being Syam's descendant is one thing, but trying to kill Banagher over his jailbait crush is pretty petty in comparison.

Also it's nice to see that Mineva didn't dump him by JUMPING OUT OF THE GARUDA.
