anyways just watched unicorn ep01 and the new 00 movie trailer and heres my random take on them:
unicorn:
» Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... «
- really awesome setting, a lot of gundam 00 initial feel, with gundam seed gundam jacking cliche feel rofl
- the thing that amused me the most is the artwork which followed pretty much 100% to the novel. sure theres a lot of bling bling and special effects, but those i can get from gundam 00. the artwork however, is using old anime art styles BUT that did not made me hate it or have the slightest feeling of it looking old AT ALL. they really pulled that one off well so hats off to sunrise/bandai on the artwork
- on the topic of artwork, the cliche ball of fire (lol bola api) explosions are used heavily, YET, it still felt good, and again, didnt felt old at all
- "3D animu" feeling with the starting kystria fight scene with the turnings and surrounding scene showings. The g-force impacts etc, really really realistic feeling, and as jcdish pointed out, totally gave kystria that "heavy" feeling.
- best of all? in the age of moe boom, this doesnt have any of that, no bullshit, no moe, just the cruel truths of war
- lots and LOTS of death and carnage. and seeing people desintegrating... oh yes.
- air bag on reverse. lol.
- DESTROY MODE. nuff f***ing said.
00 trailer:
- bling bling lolz
- the design seems a lot more solid although allelujah/tieria's mech is umm, as wierd as ever.
- FANG PEW PEW
- lolz moar flag
- updated piloting interface, lol "3D"
- assuming those "stars" all joined CB, bad guys on the fail part now? or innovators are gonna be super imba to counter balance?
- all in all, the trailer being so short, and mainly showcasing the gundams/MS pew pew abilities, not much can be said/known about it, just have to wait for more trailers/info or, the movie itself. not much point to speculate too much
