Since October last year I've been watching the latest Gundam anime.

Now I'm back to building model kits. Well improving my skills then building gunplas out of the box.

^Checked out the new episode where Sei's dad actually teaches about the basics of gunpla building? Need more!

They should just call the show Gundam All-Stars. It's total fan-service.

Wonders when a cool guy shows up with a Nu Gundam. Probably Sei's dad again...

Started watching Gundam Build Fighters too

I thought that kids were the target audience but damn, the show has some of the best Gundam fight scenes.

I like how they're pimping the Kampfer, it's one of my favorite designs and I don't like how it got killed in War in the Pocket.

No one has tried to use God Gundam yet?

Well it is a 25-minute commercial to promote their model kits.

Unless there's gonna be a second season, I see that the series is nearing the end.

On the bright side Gundam: The Origin, an updated version of the original series, will hopefully be airing later this year or 2015.

*NB - for anyone curious enough, the list of the songs they do can be found in the description part of the video's YouTube page.

I started watching 宇宙戦艦ヤマト2199 (Space Battleship Yamato 2199) - I've never watched the original Space Battleship Yamato, but I've always been intrigued by the artwork. I saw lots of ads and displays for 2199 in a lot of record/DVD shops in Tokyo last summer, but never got around to checking out the remake until now.

I'm usually not a huge fan of big space/military/tactical/war series, but this has got me absolutely hooked. I'm not quite sure what sets this apart from shows I've abandoned in the past. The production value is amazing, though - the artwork is beautiful, and the soundtrack is awesome. The episode progression/story so far actually reminds me quite a lot of the first season of the Battlestar Galactica reboot. It's very character driven and engaging.

Yeah, Akira Toriyama-san. We felt the exact same way when we watched the Majin Buu arc.

Quote

In a comment from Dragon Ball original creator Akira Toriyama read at the completion conference and photo session for the newest series of Dragon Ball Z Kai, the manga creator revealed that since he wrote the Majin Buu saga, he has lost the want to draw battle manga.

He admitted the fact, saying:
The greatest enemy fight in “Kai” is the sublime face-off with Majin Buu, and Majin Buu was also the final enemy in Dragon Ball's weekly manga serialization. The final enemy is round, strong, and very persistent! ...It was such a repetitious and violent fight that even me, the person drawing the manga, came to hate continuing the fight. Now that I've become an old man with high blood pressure and a liking for bland foods, I will not draw this kind of fighting again. Actually, I've lost the want to draw fighting manga ever since [the Majin Buu saga].

Live-action Akira fan-made trailer:

Not bad imo. Need to read the manga. Hopefully sometime soon.

Still hoping Hollywood will never actually make a live-action movie.
