>the series
>not the superior movie trilogyjust tricking!
>>13605213
>>13605215
Did they manage to get a hold of the original opening and ending music this time?
>>13605213
they put the canon stuff out first, nice
>>13605254
I'd like that.
>>13605260
I just hope they eventually put out the noncanon stuff like the movies eventually.
>>13605221
no because neil sedaka's estate wants 1million for license use of their song.
>>13605277
Well that's a bummer. I'll still buy it to support future Gundam releases but just keep watching my downloaded rips with the original music.
>>13605213
I already bought the non-gimped BDs of this and ZZ, who cares. What is even the point of buying this? You're just supporting the localization company, not the studio.
>>13605220
>>13605232
>>13605272
>>13605254
>ZZ is canon!
>>13605649
No, hats are for 'ZZ is not canon' people. Don't confuse things.
I will buy it only if they remove Rosamia episodes.
Better have Tominos prefered OP thag America got previously and not the j pop garbage
>>13605284
I'm surprised fan rips haven't just modified the OPs and EDs to use the original music as a separate audio track.
>>13605658
You are excessively tipping your fedora.
>>13605693
Is it technically j pop if they're modified versions of American pop songs?
> A new generation of Gundam mobile suits is created not to fight for peace, but to punish the enemies of the state
TEETHANUS DID NOTHING WRONG!
>>13605705
But I don't have one.
Are they just releasing this stuff in production order then?
>>13605768
Didn't they do Turn A first? Or does that not count since it was DVD and not BD?
>>13605776
I think Turn A was just a crowd-pleaser to let people know Gundam was back in America.
>>13605782
No it didn't
>>13605782
Not in North America.
>>13605732
Clearly you do if you think ZZ is canon. It's what all the hipsters think.
>>13605699
personally I like the English change a lot anyway.
>>13606004
In what universe is the theory that shuts an entire show out of a series NOT the hipster one? That's the most exclusionary option on the table, and it's based on a series that didn't even get a proper release outside of Asia and Australia.
>>13606028
What do you think hipsters are? They're elitists by nature.
>>13605213
I already have the Anime Legends box sets.
To shell out for this or noooot.
>>13605693
>Tominos prefered OP
lol no
>>13605213
Now THIS is something worth owning on Bluray. Well done Bandai.
>>13605699
Rips of the R2 BD set with the English track tacked on have been available for a long time now.
>>13606040
>its not canon unless its released in my preferred language
>>13605221
>>13605277
>>13605699
They should use the Richie Kotzen version for the OPs, don't know if they could though.

>>13606135
I would have preferred to use some of the Gackt songs from the movie soundtrack, but this is also good
>>13605301
The reason Gundam is dead in America, people.
>>13606341
>people not buying a product they don't need or want is the reason a product is dead
What a tragedy.

Yuck, sounds like a Whitesnake cover band that played at the county fair this summer
>>13605301
>Publisher: SUNRISE INC
>These releases are literally coming from them, only with Right Stuf as a distributor
>You're supporting the localization company, not the studio
You're stupid.
>>13606135
Disgusting.
>>13605254
>yfw sales are well below exceptions and Sunrise announces that it is the first animated series removed from canon.
KAMILLE GET IN THE ZETA
Yo, can anyone with the MSG blu-rays tell me if the cover has "better" art on the backside? Maybe I've gotten spoiled recently from my Turn A DVDs, which has great art on the flipside, but I was hoping for some Yas or something for the MSG BDs but can't find any pictures of the innerds.
Also, why isn't the Zeta on that cover?
>>13606996
Zeta doesn't show up until 21 (4 episodes before the end of what Collection 1 covers.) The majority of the first half is Kamille with the MK 2 so I'm not surprised they opted to use the MK 2 instead of the Zeta.
Fuck Neil Sedaka et al.
>>13605710
actually they were made to destroy the state that created them. titans, axis and AEUG shoulda teamed up and destroyed the federation.
>>13607037
Oh wow, I need a Zeta refresher. For some reason I thought the Zeta appeared around episode ten-ish. Thanks for the explaination.
>>13605277
>no because neil sedaka's estate wants 1million for license use of their song.
That's not nearly as much money as it was back in 1987.
>>13606996
There is no alternate art on the backside of the cover, unfortunately.
>>13605213
I just wanted to have a pure time.
>>13607719
But anon, not everyone's a noble mind.
>>13605215
Fuck yes
>>13605693
He wrote the lyrics you knob.
>>13607789
>Tomino writing something means he likes it.
Who's the knob now?
So this is just the DVD on BD format right? It isn't an HD remaster like 0079?
>>13605213
>Bluray for Zeta
>not for Turn A.
>>13609030
Americans trying to forget old shame? Most of the designs were american-made after all.
>>13609030
Turn A is something we all agree was great for the sake of politeness, but privately think is shit because a mustache is no replacement for a v-fin or bunny ears.
Only a select few mechs can properly rock a stache.
Fuck the sign of Zeta
>>13609671
>but privately think is shit because a mustache is no replacement for a v-fin or bunny ears.
Oh god bless you. I thought I was the only one who thought this.
>>13605784
Well, that and to make up for the fact Bandai Entertainment had been setting it up/promising it before they went under.
As in, there were even trailers for it on some of their final releases.
>>13605768
Because Zeta and Gundam are some of the earliest BD so there is not fear of reserve importation.
>>13609908
The Turn A subs on the DVDs are the Bandai Ent. subs as they where finished but Bandai shut them down before they released it.
