>>13929233
No. Because there won't be a second season this fall since Nanatsu no Taizai is already scheduled to air in that same timeslot this fall after Boku no Hero Academia in the Spring and Arslan S2 is suppose to take over in Spring 2017 on that timeslot.
>>
>>13929233
>Fall 2016
Seven Deadly Sins S2 is airing then and unlike IBO that got good ratings.
>>
>>13929242
This anon is right. That's why I know that we aren't getting 2nd season of IBO.
>>
>>13929235
If this is really getting a second season, I don't understand why they'd keep it a secret.
>>
It won't be a second season it will be a movie
>>
>>13929250
Well probably not on that timeslot since ratings wise its been doing pretty poorly so they'll probably move it to late night like G-Reco since that was a success on its timeslot. And I HIGHLY doubt we're gonna wait two full years for a second season, there was only a year of wsit time between 00 S1 and S2 same with GBF and TRY.
>>

>>13929253
Me either. It'll probably get announced in the last episode or something but so far there's nothing that points to a continuation.

>>13929263
All the sources people point to saying there's going to be a second season are all just things calling this the first part. There's nothing that ever *directly* references or states that there will be a second part any time soon. Unless it's a timeslot change, there's no way the show will continue until Summer 2017, and this doesn't have the hype 00 had to keep people invested. Maybe that's why they're starting the side-story manga, but as it doesnt look like it has any connection to the show save for the setting, I doubt it will bring people back to watch IBO S2, if there is one.
>>
>>13929273
You and me both pal
>>
>>13929277
>there's no way the show will continue until Summer 2017
The only way I can imagine this happening is that the second season will happen in the same universe with a different cast.

As much sense does it make for something like IBOS2 to premiere at that time Banrise would want it to premiere in the fall or spring
>>
>>13929222
Final episode is two episodes that is what they mean you gullible fucker
>>
>>13929306
Then we'll have either a 2 or more year gap between the starts of Seasons 1 and 2. The longer they put it off, the worse it's going to do if the ending to S1 is bad.
>>
So if an S2 actually happens, will they end up pulling a 00 S2 and throw in as many blatant MSG tropes as possible to try and regain audience?

How long until it turns out Kudelia knows the secret of an ancient long lost charter granting equal rights to all spacenoids and has Tekkadan help her hunt down that charter?
>>
>>13929318
At this point, a IBO S2 filled with common Gundam tropes would be infinitely more entertaining than what it is now.
>>
>>13929318
>throw in as many blatant MSG tropes as possible to try and regain audience?
It has already started with Ein turning into a Cybernewtype.
>>
>>13929334
I can't wait until they travel across time in the finale.
>>
>>13929323
This. S1 already has a masked guy and a Garma, so that's some of the hypothetical work done for them.

>>13929313
Furthermore, Unicorn is airing on TV soon, so they can't divert attention from that.
>>
>>13929163
Is that Barbatos 2? I like it.
>>
>>13929235
When was 00 S2 announced? After S1 finished, or during the last few episodes?
>>
>>13929353
We knew it before the last episode for some time.
>>
>>13929323
I liked 00 S2 though. IBO needs it more though.
>>
>>13929343
Unicorn TV is just filler to promote the new novel and for Brave Beats cancellation and its also airing on an early morning timeslot so it won't get much attention anyways, if it was airing on Nichigo ala Yamato 2199 then Banrise would be shilling the shit out of it now.

If there is a S2, I really, REALLY hope it has a new production staff, and is like, set 30 years into the future (with a new cast of course), and Calamity War 2 is happening as a result of S1 ending up shattering the current united state of the world.

The different blocks already seem to be waiting to go at each others throats as it is, and Mars Independence could be seen as being the seed that causes other areas to want to break off too.

That would actually have the potential of being interesting.

>>13929235

00 was announced as having 2 seasons from the get go before season 1 even premiered, not from Gundam Ace or Newtype actually but through external publications.


Honestly the most obvious sign we're getting a season 2 is how fucking slow the pace for the show became in episode 10. This looks like it was not planned for 2 seasons, but made with the potential that they could fuck with the script if they chose to do so. It does really look like a S2 budget was confirmed after the show aired the first several episodes and they started slowing down the story to accommodate.
>>
>>13929323
This is sadly true.
>>
>>13929476
what do you mean, they fix things in the Blu Ray/DVD release so that doesn't matter.

Do you not realize that most tv anime has lots of QUALITY and they want you to buy the video release for the actual final product with all the things fixed? 00 was notoriously full of stick figure humans
>>
>>13929323
>At this point, a IBO S2 filled with common Gundam tropes would be infinitely more entertaining than what it is now.
It's like the reverse of Gundam Seed Destiny. People had high expectations for Destiny because the story had potential. Here is the reverse, people don't see how they could screw it up any worse.

Explain why both Build Fighters, Greco and AGE all managed to be more consistent in quality before BR/DVD's? Clearly IBO is worse compared to it's TV contemporaries in this regard and I dont think the Blurays will fix all that much.

IBO cannot go 1 fight without doing something completely lazy in animation, and fights have them more off model then they are on model.

I can confirm that this not true especially when this was the age before two cour splits became a regular thing and you got a second season based on how well you performed. At most continuation speculation came about in the second half when the clip show came about and then we got a leak that confirmed it which is why everyone started freaking out when Lockon lost an eye and thought his new eyepatch look was going to be a new character design for S2 but little did we know he would die an episode later.

There are 20 or so unseen Gundams still napping somewhere that weren't destroyed in the Calamity War

I want to see them reawakened to fight in a new one, that's all

Now for the Orphans themselves, definitely wouldn't want them as Celestial Being 2.0

I'd rather they remain mercenaries, with some new recruits, fighting for a new contractor. Perhaps some decide to stay with Kudelia as the Independent Mars Defense Force. It'd be a good way to leave Mika behind for a new protagonist if anything. I really can't bring myself to like that guy, but he'd be a good oh-shit moment to bring out at some point

Final boss, for the very end of IBO, so end of this season or end of season 2 depending on how many seasons there will be, should be Gundam Baal. It should be the first Gundam made, and it's probably the prototype for all the other Gundams. It might be the strongest Gundam. That would make it final boss material.

It should also look sinister and have red eyes and shit.

Do I have to spell it out? The plot of the show is about Tekkadan's mission to safely escort Kudelia to Earth.

We're approaching the end of the series and hence approaching its climax: the buildup from the previous episodes.

>>13929930
I think he's saying that, because of Sunrise's characteristic Engrish, when they say first part they mean the first part of the show, the first 13 episodes. Episode 1 - 13 was the first part that created the setting and the "plot", 14-18 was mostly filler, and 19 - 25 is the final part, the climax of the show. Climax as in the events that unfolded in 1 - 13 will have a pay off in the next few episodes.

I don't agree, but I can see why he might think that.

Well she's the main character, after all.

What, you thought that was Mika and Orga? Oh you poor thing. Who's had the most screentime? The most plot centered on them? The most backstory, the most interpersonal drama? Who's the most prominent in the current OP?

And then who's the back-bencher who mostly hangs in the background like a squirrel munching his acorns, waiting for his once-every-five-episodes chance to be relevant and fly a Gundam? He's just there to fill the 'lead pilot is a young man' quota.

Yes.

IBO is one of the few Gundams to feature Mars. It grates me how they've barely used it as a setting.

I actually really like the design,I know it takes a lot of elements from Ippei's recent works,but I'm a fan of how it looks like trash on purpose.
Like it's been through 17 different pilots over the past 300 years and you can tell they've each had to patch it up with scraps just to keep it going.
>>
>>13929163
So almost 50 episodes Gundam again. Good. Maybe.
>>
>>13930960
You need to watch more Gundams or at least G-reco since you clearly missed where Ippei cobbled the parts from.
>>
I'm still not entirely sure I believe this is getting a 2nd season.
I'd like it to be true, I'm enjoying the show, but I'm skeptical.

Why /m/ has to always have a chorus of "REJOICE, [insert show here] IS FAILING!" I'll never understand. I don't want to believe you're all just so bitter about not liking something that you feel compelled to try and make people who like it feel bad, but it really does seem that way sometimes.

It's ASW-G-29 Gundam Astaroth, and it's for a side story. Some other info:

-Gundam Astaroth: owned by Volco, Argi pilots it. The only original parts left are the head and the Gundam Frame, the rest of the armor is a patchwork from different MS and so its appearance has become distorted.
-Argi Mirage: boy with a prosthetic hand on the right arm.
-Volco Wohlen: boy with a scar on his forehead, objective is to regain all the original Astaroth parts that are dispersed through the universe.

If they spend another fucking fifteen or so episodes in space doing jackshit after landing on earth I'm gonna freak out.

Did the Calamity War fucked humanity so much that they can't produce beam weaponry?

heck. Even a grunt suit from 00 s2 can destroy a gundam on this series
>>
>>13931313
I wonder why people have such a hard time accepting the idea of a Gundam series without beam weaponry.

Of course, since people are retards from now on the idea of a physical weapon focused Gundam is going to be associated with mediocrity instead of being a good idea wasted on a bad series.
>>
>>13929409
>That would actually have the potential of being interesting.

Season 1 also had tons of potential but got thrown out the window the moment they spent eternity traveling to earth.
>>
>>13931313
No, it's the other way around; they had beams, then developed nano-laminate armor to fully diffuse beams, rendering beams entirely obsolete
>>
>>13931372
Or maybe: They never invented beams because they don't have a magic minovsky particle.
>>
>>13929836
This to me signals that nothing could've gone right in the first place. Too many chefs spoils the soup, and you go and hire Mari Okada, tell everyone she's going to be writing and then have her make the proverbial broth and then kick her ass out the door. One show, one lead writer.
>>
>>13929163
/m/'s going to fucking implode
>>
>>13931433
Nope, they have Super ABC built into all their armour, rendering all beam weapons useless unless they're the ship mounted plasma throwers that get mentioned literally once about episode 9 when they steal the isaribi and escape the space station.

Yeah, it's a little disappointing because while I don't have a lot of faith in Okada, the general premise, while simple, is nice and could've easily been a very engaging story. I actually enjoyed the first few episodes, or I guess the ones up to and including their first space skirmish with Gjallarhorn. I ended up dropping it shortl after that cause I could see that there was gonna be an overabundance of talking heads that would put Bravo Nolan to shame.

Its selling within the same range only slightly worse, yet you're claiming IBO is a hit and G-Reco is not?
>>
>>13938890
G-Reco as a whole sold around 5k, while IBO which hasn't finished airing has sold around 13k. What are you on about? Shit like Try only sold around 3k with Age selling just under that. At least know your sales numbers faggot.

IBO still has the better numbers, just the show saw a greater drop in sales.

2014 Series Sales By Volume

http://www.someanithing.com/1059

2015 Series Sales By Volume

http://www.someanithing.com/3059

And looking at the Quick Data for the series

G-Reco Average = 9012

IBO Average after 2 volumes = 10,734
>>
>>13938890
Got a source for the stream numbers?
>>
>>13938919
First volume was half price.
>>
>>13938920
Yeah its called looking at CRs homepage and the Gundam info YT page
>>
>>13938939
Don't bother, he's going to say it doesnt matter like event tickets didn't influence Cross Ange's sales.
>>
>>13938939
And a promo code for a game.

So really then, they made more money off G-Reco's vol 1 than IBO's.
>>
>>13938894
G-Reco's first volume number is a guesstimate based on Sound Scan since Oricon didn't fix their error. Second volume isn't the full amount either. Also good job omitting the fact that IBO's first volume was half price and came with a promo code.
>>
>>13938965
I was just trying to show the numbers didn't soar up to the heavens from G-Reco's. Sorry I forgot the whole half-price thing, it slipped my mind.

And really, it's still kinda sad on IBO's part that after how much Banrise has spent hyping the show, trying to make it the next SEED or 00, it's doing around the same as the show they had no confidence in and aired in the middle of the night. Considering IBO's latest ratings are below G-Reco's average, some of the folks at Banrise must be shitting themselves right now.
>>
>>13938949
What about Hulu and Daisuki numbers?

Also couldn't find the CR numbers and iirc the gundam info stuff is SEA only.
>>
>>13939004
>Hulu
That's still a thing? Isn't that some Murica only streaming service that's supposedly worse than Netflix?
>>
>>13939004
Do we have any evidence people in Japan are streaming it? That's what's important here, not how it does in a market where Gundam is niche.
>>
>>13939004
>Hulu
>>
>>13939011
There's no hard evidence but there is one guy who'll claim since DVR's are big the reason IBO's ratings are low is because everyone recorded it.
