Is Mobile Suit Gundam Unicorn RE:0096 worth watching?
>>
>>14111149
Have you seen Unicorn yet?
>Yes
Sure, if you want to watch it again at a slower pace

>No
Then it's not really worth it, lots of parts are spoiled in the OP and ED and the OVAs are already out there.
>>
>>14111163
>at a slower pace
M8, the OVAs took years to come out. Every time a new episode came out I had comepletly forgotten what happened in the previous episodes.
>>
>>14111163

Except the TV episodes have better animation. Anytime they do a scene transition, they have to redraw it. The redraws so far put the OVA Blu Ray to shame
>>
>>14112841
He meant the pacing of the story, dude...
>>
>>14111149
All you need to know is that Riddhe did nothing wrong.
>>
Has there been anything added yet? I haven't noticed anything. But it's also been a few years since I last watched UC
>>
>>14111163

If you haven't seen Unicorn, watching 0096 is the more worthwhile.
>>
As a Unicornfag I have to say that I find the pacing dissatisfying. Maybe it's just because I've watched Unicorn so many times, but the episode endings feel far too abrupt and this disrupts the flow of the story.
>>
>>14113041
you're used to it being 80~90 minutes long rather than 20 minutes
>>
>>14112930
they redrew some scenes
>>
>>14111149
Do you feel like investing your time into what will be a 20+ episode series? Do you like UC stuff? Enjoyed but largely forgot Unicorn due to the slow release pace of the ova's?

If so then yes, watch it.

Am I the only one who think that it would look much better if they cut to ED after this scene?

Oh? Why is that?
>>
>>14112900
BUt the story is the same pace, it's literally the OVA, just broken up into weekly episodes.

Riddhe's help was necessary for this
>>
>>14113058

>huh

ep 7 was 90 mins but the rest were only 60

but still I think the episodes don't flow the same as the average series since the end of each is essentially an arbitrary point in the original OVA
>>
>>14111149
If you've already watched Unicorn then no. The chopped up nature really grinds up any semblence of good pacing.

If you haven't watched yet, I'd recommend just hitting up the OVAs instead and keeping an eye out for noise here on /m/ about new scenes in RE:0096.

Do note that RE:0096 does have some redrawn scenes (so better overall art quality than OVA). So if you're hell bent on seeing the definitive version, wait for RE to finish airing and marathon it instead.


TL;DR its not really worth following week to week.
>>
>>14111149
>Is Mobile Suit Gundam Unicorn RE:0096 worth watching?

No, if and only if you've already watched the OAV series.
>>
>>14111149
Yes.
I've watched Unicorn OVAs and still enjoy it really much. I even re-watched past UC96 gundam for more immersion.
The mecha is one of the prettiest in the franchise IMO.
>>
>>14113081
That unicorn looks smug as fuck
>>
>>14112841
>M8, the OVAs took years to come out
I know this is /m/ and reading comprehension and understanding is not to be expected here, but I meant that the story unfolds slower compared to if you didn't watch Unicorn as it came out and watched it when it was all finished. Instead of getting the entire thing in like 1 - 3 sittings (depending on how much time you have a day to watch anime), if you follow RE0096 weekly you'll get the entire thing in like 24 sittings with a week in between each one. It's the difference between being able to watch and digest the entire story in two days, or 5 months
>>
I've got both episodes download and just haven't been able to push myself to watch them

I don't dislike unicorn, I like it a lot more than a lot of people here. I just have an overall passive feeling towards it so unless it turns out some scenes have changed I probably won't until I watch through UC again
>>
>>14113752
If you're going to do a UC rewatch then you should probably just stick with the OVA version regardless, I don't think they're going to actually add significant amounts or any amounts of actual new or different content, just a few redraws per ep.
>>
>>14113766
Yeah but if I'm binge watching it will basically be like watching the ovas with some tiny extras and bits cleaned up
>>
>>14113775
Maybe, but you also have to take into account being interrupted by the OP and ED in odd places, since the editing is rather rough, every 20 minutes.

Usually that wouldn't be an issue for me personally when binge watching a show with a good OP and ED, but the OP and ED for RE0096 fucking sucks and I find skipping the OP and ED manually breaks the immersion and flow of a binge.
>>
>>14113785
Maybe someone will make an ova edit of the tv version
>>
It's alright I guess. The TV show does include new scenes that clue you in on things that aren't happening in the general vicinity of the main character and fill in the background a bit more than the OVA which more or less focused only on Banana.

Ridhe was in the wrong anime.
>>
>>14113814
There haven't been any new scenes though. You sure you aren't misremembering the OVA?
>>
>>14113832
There was a new scene with the mook in the zaku getting wrecked by the Londo Bell agents in the last episode, not to mention Marida talking with Zimmerman about the Audrey's escape and what to do about it.
>>
>watch first episode
>they ruined it right away by putting the best scene right at the start
No hope for this shit.
>>
>>14113849
I think both of those were already there.
>>
>>14113937
I think you didn't watch the original OVA then. Come back when you have.
>>
>>14113942
... they literally were in the original oav
>>
>>14113956
They weren't. You saying they were doesn't prove it.

Are you two faggots talking about the Geara Zulu being torn apart by attacks until its demise ultimately sets off the chain of events that has the Kshatriya bursting out and causing havoc? That was definitely in the OVA.

As for the other part, that sounds way too insignificant to remember or even really talk about.
>>
>>14113962
the scene with the mook was literally in the trailer for the first oav episode...
>>
>>14113822
Riddhe was actually pushing all the right button. It's just that he is not in protag position so.

Also not new.

Doesn't invalidate my point at all, but feel free to backtrack like the retarded pussy ass bitch you are.

That doesn't work as a counterargument to anon's claim.

I'm waiting for the recompile blurays where it's essentially the same released blurays but with edited in new footage
>>
like, even if you haven't watched unicorn by now, what's keeping you from just marathoning the whole shit in a day instead of watching the weekly broadcast?

hell, even if it hadn't me ocurred before, as soon as I finished ep 1 I'd just go and watch the other ovas instead of waiting other 21-22 weeks

is it me, or does gundam seem to focus on Bright? I mean he seems to be the glue that holds it together. I would just love a series focused on Bright.
>>
>>14120068
Not really

>Origins: Casval/Char
>0079: Amuro
>TB: Io
>0080: Bernie and Al
>08th: Shiro
>0083: Kou and Gato
>Zeta: Kamille
>ZZ: Judau
>CCA: Amuro and Char
>0096: Banagher

...Bright wasn't even in most of those and even then he was regulated to a supporting role.
>>
>>14120090
I geuss focus is the wrong word, but he is in all of it. Also when will they do a proper series on CCA?
>>
>>14120102
Not likely. CCA was only a 2-hour movie and it was a really bad one. It makes no sense to try and stretch it out to an OVA run.

>he is in all of it.
wut.
>>
>>14120161
A lot of CCA's problems come from trying to juggle two different casts with only 2 hours to work with, though.
>>
Will I get lectured about space politics for 3 hours (Ovas 3,4,5) again?
>>
>>14120341
Do you hate legend of the galactic heroes?
>>
>>14120341
you bet your sweet boipussy.
>>
>>14120165

To be honest the new characters are either totally forgettable or borderline irritating. I understand the reasoning behind was to avoid a movie exclusively centered around Amuro and Char, but this is the typical case in which less is more.
>>
>>14120407
Only borderline? You have a much higher tolerance to Hathaway and Quess' bullshit than I do.
>>
>>14120429
We're not all autistic, you see. Some of us are able to immerse ourselves in a setting, and treat and recognize fictional characters' actions in their contexts and understand them, even if we don't agree with it, without getting incredibly angry or upset enough to whine on online imageboards.
>>
>>14111163
japs don't give a shit about spoilers
>>
>>14111149
it's a shame it isn't a remake or at least they try adding some new scenes. i guess it cost too much money. i love opening and ending theme
>>
>>14120471
And?
>>
>>14120474
So?
