Mobile Suit Gundam Unicorn

The premiere of Gundam Unicorn’s excellent first episode a couple of weeks ago was one of the most exciting events of my recent life, and in the time since I’ve been snapping up all the Unicorn-related goods I can get my hands on. As soon as the OVA ED song leaked, it was my destiny to translate it!

I went with a looser translation in the interest of speed, but I think the lyrics of “Ryuusei no Namida” convey the bond between Banagher and Audrey very well. (Newtypes sure fall in love fast, don’t they?) It’s a pretty song that I hope you enjoy.

P.S. Bonus points for anyone who recognized rookie idol Kuriyama from her role as Gogo Yubari in Quentin Tarantino’s Kill Bill vol. 1!

Gundam Unicorn

With the apparent lack of any new mecha series in the coming fall season, as well as the absence of any new Gundam animation this year despite the 30th anniversary of the franchise (though we did get that cool statue), I was getting a little impatient to hear something from the Sunrise/Bandai camp. Luckily, they delivered with an announcement confirming a 6-episode OVA release for Mobile Suit Gundam Unicorn in 2010.

Remember this?

I love the Mobile Suit Gundam franchise, and every time a new chapter is added, I feel the need to step back and evaluate what it adds to the mythos as a whole. With Gundam 00 at its conclusion (for now), I have my own critical opinions and thoughts on the series to share. WALL OF TEXT ahead.

Epic Anime Season is Epic. Fall season will be starting in just a few days time and it is looking to be one of the best in recent memory. With shows like CLANNAD: After Story and Gundam 00 Second Season, this coming season looks like it will be Fall 2007 remix version 2.0. There are also plenty of new shows like ChaoS;Head that have plenty of potential to be awesome. I tried to narrow my watch list down but given the sheer amount of WIN, it was near impossible.
