Is this the next Gundam? Cross Ange trailer
Cross Ange is a new mecha anime from Sunrise. That’s the team responsible for mecha hits like Gundam, Code Geass and Vlavrave. Mitsui Fukuda, Gundam SEED director, is the creative director on the project. If you happened to notice the pilot’s armour was odd; a mix of protective shell and knickers then you’d be right. […]

Gundam diorama: After Air Strikes
There’s no doubting the quality around this Gundam diorama. We can see from the photo that it’s called “After Air Strikes”. However, it was shared on a pin board that does not seem to favour attribution so finding out the creator will take a little bit more research.

I heard the music and though to myself – wait, no, that’s the wrong mecha. Then I doubted myself. Wait, no, maybe… It’s a mix. That’s why. It’s impressive but it’ll mess with […]
Beez Entertainment to close?
“BEEZ no longer exists,” says a post on the French site Forum Gundam after Google Translate has had a bash at the text. Sadly, this could be true – the news that Bandai Entertainment would shutter all new anime broke this week. Both Bandai Entertainment and BEEZ are owned by the same company – Namco […]
Armored Trooper VOTOMS: Pailsen Files movie review
Armored Trooper VOTOMS is an anime series with a long history; 52 TV episodes that started in 1983, plenty of movies and games. VOTOMS is a mecha fighting series – but unlike Gundam the mecha are not giant space robots, they’re suits about 4 metres tall, they’re about as “man size” as powered fighting suits […]
Summer time lapse of a life-sized Gundam
Anime heroes tend to come and go. Sure, the likes of Bleach, Dragonball Z or even Pokemon have been around for years – but compare that to Batman or Superman. Compare those to the likes of the Phantom or the Shadow. I’m no expert but my gut feeling is that Gundam is one of the […]
