New Gundam TV series confirmed: Mobile Suit Gundam 00
A very short promo appeared after today's episode of TBS/MBS' "Toward The
Terra" announcing a new Gundam series. Mobile Suit Gundam 00 (Double Oh) is
set to air at 6pm on Oct 2007. The official site is up providing a streaming
promo.
Known details are:
Setting - 2307 AD ("seireki", Japanese for "anno domini")
Characters - 4 Gundam Meisters, who pilot the mobile weapons.
Factions - Solestal Beings (not real sure on the English name right now), a
private militia group whose purpose is to eradicate wars.
Tagline at the end of the commercial - "Rebirth begins through
destruction"
Rumors about the series have been going around Japanese message boards for some
time, especially after Sunrise registered several Gundam00 domains. The
proclamation that the setting would neither be in the Universal Century of the
original nor the Cosmic Era of Gundam SEED, as stated by Sunrise's Yasuo
Miyakawa, seems to have been followed through with. Staff members are yet to be
confirmed although the most persistent rumor is that the series will be directed
by Fullmetal Alchemist's Seiji Mizushima.
Unfortunately I'm going to have to close this thread one has already been
created a few minutes prior to this one with the exact same details. Although
this one does have pics.
NEW GUNDAM SERIES.
