Go Tokyo Your Experience
The recently released “Mobile Suit Gundam GQuuuuuuX” has sparked enthusiasm among fans with its fresh visuals and trailer. In addition, this work will also launch a preview theatrical version, bringing more anticipation.
This time, “Mobile Suit Gundam GQuuuuuuX” has aroused curiosity in many aspects. First, the title of the work is quite unique, as it is the first time so many repeated letters have been used in a name (although this seems to look like a keyboard mishap, but that’s just speculation).
This work invites the famous director Kazuki Takemaki to direct, while the script is co-written by Yōji Enokido and Hideaki Anno.
Does Hideaki Anno’s involvement mean that there will be a classic scene at the end of the work where the main character is applauded? (Of course, this is just a joke).
In any case, this new Gundam work has become a hot topic of discussion. By the way, the mechanical design is handled by Yukito Yamashita.
From the trailer, Sack’s design still retains the original style, while Gundam’s appearance is somewhat different due to the involvement of EVA designer Yukito Yamashita.
This work, co-produced by Khara and SUNRISE, gradually unveils its mysterious veil with the release of new trailers and visuals. The plot revolves around the story of the female protagonist “Amatsu Sayo,” a high school student living in a floating space colony. She leads a peaceful life until one day she encounters a war refugee girl named “Nean,” which leads her to become embroiled in unexpected events, adopting the alias “Machu,” and fighting in illegal MS duels in a combat arena while piloting a Gundam.
However, there is more than one person who changes her fate; there is also a boy named “Shuji,” who also pilots a Gundam. The encounters of several characters mark the beginning of a new story.
