Looking at the shows in new and returning acquisitions, it looks like it'll have a pretty clear field, too. None of the good anime they'll be running at the same time really overlaps that much in concept and appeal. Closest thing is Hunter X Hunter, which is excellent, but still a very different beast, or maybe Parasyte. Its only real sci-fi action competition is Dimension W, which was a complete loving disaster.

Do OVAs this short usually get dubs?

If they're gonna be aired on TV. Endless Waltz, the Miller Report, and 0080 did.

It's being rereleased as a film, so there's a tiny, tiny chance, I guess?

Thunderbolt is getting a dub. It was on the solicit for the DVD/BD release, and the Gundam Global Portal Facebook posted that they did the first session with Io's VA today.

Please bring over Gundam Breaker 3 soon so I don't have to wait until Dynasty Warriors Gundam Reborn 2 to play as these new, cool, dubbed Gundams. Actually also make DWGR2 soon while we're at it so I can punch all these new guys as Loran.

They've done a pretty good job at informing people that IBO exists and all it took was putting it up on places people actually use to watch anime.

What a novel approach.

I've played enough of Loran in all the games that I can tell you the actual line is "We cannot" instead of "We can't" and the line elevates in volume until you hit the last two words.

Welcome! There is a broad spectrum of opinion on "good" and "bad" though I think we all agree that AGE was garbage and I don't think there's much dissent about 0080 being good.

Shiro is pretty odd as far as Gundam protagonists go. He's extremely...normal for one thing. Most Gundam MCs are very special for one reason or another.

I liked him and the rest of his team for this reason. They were just normal soldiers, not psychic badasses. You can keep your Bright Slap, give me Karen kicking the one guy in the balls.

I still say Chris is the biggest outlier for the main Gundam pilot in a series. She's a professional in her early 20s, she's level headed and friendly from the start, she's competent as a pilot without being The Best Ever, both her parents are alive and on quite good terms with her...

Seriously, for a mech pilot, the woman's a total freakshow.

Shiro starts off alright and had an arrogant streak to him that gets checked as the series progresses, eventually turning from his initial bloodlust into outright hatred for warfare. It's not bad as far as character arcs go but the show gets sloppy about it with the director change. Shiro's turn to pacifism is presented like he's a hippie who undercuts his own team's safety out of self interest.
He's still better than most other oldtype pilots and is definitely one of the best oldtype aces in the oyw.
