note If you're wondering why it's two episodes shorter, the remaster cut out two recap episodes, which were the original 14th & 26th episodes.
#Gundam seed series
The 48-episode run of the HD remaster of the series aired in 2012. However, Destiny failing to be as successful as SEED, the movie's production stalling (due to, among other things, illness and subsequent passing away of the head writer Chiaki Morosawa in 2016) and the subsequent release and success of non-CE series Gundam 00 have since dashed those hopes. SEED's success and the announcement of Destiny, the first-ever full-length television sequel to a Gundam show outside of the original Universal Century timeline, spawned speculation that CE would become the new UC. An as of yet untitled movie, announced in 2006, is expected to be a Grand Finale of the saga.if it can leave Development Hell. Thanks to its powerful directing, an all-star voice cast, and the never-dwindling emotional tension, SEED easily became a smash hit in Japan, getting the second highest ratings in Gundam history only behind Zeta Gundam and spawning a televised sequel, Mobile Suit Gundam SEED Destiny, and a manga spinoff, Gundam SEED Astray. Meanwhile, the nations on Earth not falling under the umbrella of the Earth Alliance are forced to take sides or else risk the ire of both opposing factions. This basic conflict of interest, combined with the Fantastic Racism between the genetically engineered Coordinators and the unenhanced Naturals, eventually sparks a war between the Earth Alliance and ZAFT, that opens with a nuclear assault on a PLANT and only gets worse from thereon out. Most of Earth falls under the authority of the Earth Alliance, which funded the construction of the PLANTs (huge, hourglass-shaped space colonies meant for use as orbital manufacturing and R&D centers) however, the Coordinators now living on the PLANTs seek independence from the Earth Alliance via the formation of a militia group called ZAFT.
Genetic modification of humans is illegal on Earth, but the space colonies are populated almost exclusively by an artificially enhanced breed of humanity known as Coordinators. The story premise matches the standard Gundam fare by featuring a conflict between Earth and Space, but introduces an original twist in the form of widespread use of LEGO Genetics. The series is created and produced by Sunrise, and directed by Mitsuo Fukuda. Occasionally considered a Remake of the original Mobile Suit Gundam adapted for modern audiences due to the similarities of the first half of the plot, it none the less manages to stand on its own due to the vastly different nature of the setting and its primary conflict, as well as the completely original second half of the storyline. Thus he ended up realizing that it had been a few years since ‘Mobile Suit Gundam Seed’ was released, and that the teenagers who saw it at the time were already adults, so perhaps the anime was becoming outdated for the modern target.Mobile Suit Gundam SEED, which aired from 2002 to 2003, is the ninth television installment of the long-running Gundam franchise and the first to be set in the Cosmic Era Alternate Universe. During a student visit to the Sunrise studios, he heard all kinds of opinions, but almost all along the lines that “Gundam is not for us”“Gundam is for old people”, or even “If it has ‘Gundam’ in the title, I don’t even see it”. ‘Gundam’ has had to adapt to the new times and to a new audience, because in Sunrise they realized that today’s teenagers had zero interest in their series.Īccording to the anime producer Takuya Okamotowho has worked on several big hits in recent years, including ‘Vinland Saga’ and ‘Jujutsu Kaisen’, the opinion that the young people had of ‘Gundam’ was very worrying. After several years without a new series of ‘ Gundam’this month ‘Gundam: The Witch from Mercury’ has started, which presents us with a completely different story that we can start from scratch.Īlthough it retains many common points with the other series in the franchise, it also It has hit a swerve in terms of tone and setting by getting us into a high school anime with highlights.
