According to the slide used in the presentation (and ANN), we're getting the Unicorn sequel first, and then three Hathaway's Flash movies.

Trailer for Narrative is up on GundamInfo: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ac_yRqcNsnw

Maybe it's just me, but the suit designs seem kind of gaudy? Like it seems there's a lot of pointy edges on them.

I'm hoping they go with something different with the story, but it's a Unicorn sequel so my expectations are pretty low on that.

Is there enough story in Hathaway's Flash for a movie trilogy? It's always seemed kind of sparse to me, though I've only been going off summaries. There's also not a prayer they maintain the original ending and don't change it, even dismissing that Quess has no reason to mock Hathaway given the difference between Beltorchika's Children and Char's Counterattack.

It's possible that they could devote a movie to setting up the setting for it, since Hathaway's Flash doesn't work with the "normal" version of CCA unless they rewrite the story.

I'm sorry, I'm going into cryogenic sleep because Hathaway's Flash is happening in 2019 and I can't bear to wait that long in real time, so I'm just gonna sleep until the first OVA comes out, watch it, and then go back on ice until the next one, and repeat.

Clarification: I believe Gundam UC 2 is in the style of a live-action western production, not an actual western production. I'm still a little unclear on this though, my Japanese isn't perfect.

On one hand having Hathaway's Flash animated is cool. On the other I was hoping that they'd move away from unicorn with later UC stuff. Hopefully Banagher just joins with some peace hippie group so we can get an interesting protagonists instead.

It says UC2 will be produced in the style of western TV series. All these amateurs are tripping up on the word ドラマ which directly translates to drama but actual means a serial TV series. For example Game of Thrones is a dorama as much as Full House is.

Not really sure what to make of Narrative, but we'll see later this year I guess.

Hathaway's Flash is curious. I wonder how they'll try and make the story work, or if it will just a be a relatively straight adaptation.

Yeah I don't know how to interpret the idea of western media influence on narrative. What exactly makes the current trend of ten episode long format television exclusive to the west?

Compared to Japanese 'dramas' the budget and scope is completely different and that's what I think they're emphasizing, that it will be a big space epic not a rinky dink tv drama about a mobile suit pilot's daily life.

Maybe the story will emphasize how economically disenfranchised people become radicalized into Neo-Zeon with a bullshit narrative about the glory of Char fighting for oppressed Spacenoids or something.

Gundam Narrative.

Honestly, it makes me think of what you would get if the G-Saviour and the Nu had a baby. It's got noticeable design elements from both of the core units, if you consider them without the extra bits like the space boosters or funnels.

That's definitely an unfinished Mobile Suit. I guess the mid-season upgrade will just be they finish building it.

So the Phenex, from what I can gather, went rogue after a fight in a Shoal Zone and blew up its carrier? So can we possibly assume that it will be an antagonist suit in Narrative?

It's three novels, so one movie per book.

If they don’t fight more Zeon remnants (I mean come on, who is even left at this point besides the guys at Mars) then I can see this happening. I think sone random snippets are saying Phenex only came back after it hosed off to parts unknown because it might have heard Audrey’s speech

The PG manual says that it just randomly shows up to help and then disappears. It's the Tuxedo Mask of UC Gundam.

It's okay. I read a translated PDF about ten years ago. Not a whole lot of newtype stuff, mostly spacenoids and earthnoids in yet another slap fight around the same time as ZZ.
