That's really cool, I love Katoki style. ^^ Who will be the pilot? Maybe Amuro Ray?
Is this set in the UC timeline, or does it simply stand for UniCorn?
That new mobile suit's face bears a striking resemblance to that of Tall-Geese III from the Endless Waltz OVA. I wish they actually would port Sentinel Gundam onto the TV =|. Cheers,
The art is nice, I like that style. A horn for a Gundam, I always wanted to see it happen, and now...I hope MG kit of it will come out =P
It's actually a novel: http://aeug.blogspot.com/2006_10_01_aeug_archive.html#116169803107080709
Sorry for being an ass but it's Hajime Katoki. Seriously, the Gundam franchise has gotten very very very very bland. It's as though Bandai and Sunrise are unsure on how to revive the brand.
I like the design too... Reminds me a little of Stargazer, but still has the nice clean lines of the classic Gundam. Feels a little like Syd Mead's designs. I like his Turn A Gundam designs. Who knows, maybe we will see an anime eventually. Hopefully they will decide to make a MG or GFF. I guess we will need to keep out eyes open for more in Gundam Ace or Newtype. This is the first I heard of it... Thanks Danny. Enjoy your Sunday.
Mmm, wonder who will be the artist to draw this novel (when they say novel, they mean manga, right?) /anime. I think the design is kind of plain, for the time being, mainly due to its lack of color and it reminds me too much of a GM. : /
I think it's pretty cool. If they do come out with a series, I hope it comes out for u.s.a
No, Phil. Novel as in novel. As in a book with pages filled with words. There may be insert illustrations, though. That's not uncommon.
well, its a "new fresh design" from the usual 2-horned designs... at least it aint a mustache.
unique universal design indeed but...i'm not used to its appearence so it looks weird at the same time too
A Novel/ Series with Ver. Ka designed Gundam? I am sooooo there.
quite a plain design overall...but its still in the making yet..who knows it might be good?..oh i find it strange that of most of the gundam series that spans from the A.U., U.C. and C.E...this gundam doesnt have the trademark "goatee" that most of the main mecha of each series has.
Ahh this one I heard that it's the one of the U.C Series Stand in the time After Zeta war not really i know...
Wow, I think this design has promise. Kajime's designs are always good and this looks like it might make some fresh changes in MS design!
Well, this is certainly a fresh design. Looks cool, and the eyes, if I'm not wrong, are just a single line rather than the traditional twin cameras in two eyes. Might it be a mono-eyed suit? The red 'goatee' is missing, the design of the face is more to a GM. The 'V' is replaced by a spike! This looks set to rock the world!!!
ネタ元は、月刊誌ガンダムエースですよ。 メディアは、ガンダムエースの漫画らしいですよ。かなりあいまいに書いてありますけど。 やっぱ、カトキはギザカコイーですよね。 漫画→アニメ化するぐらいがんばってほしいものです。がのたとしては。
Well first impressions dictate that I do not like it. If this were an anime, though a lot is left to be desired (I don't judge a book by its cover until I hear other reviews and watch it myself). Definetly one to add to the list to watch!
i'd take anything that has the words Hajime Katoki in it. ^^
Wow, I would be open to Gundam designs that break the usuall mode, but I wish it had two eyes, to me that is what sets gundams appart from most other mechs. P.S. the art looks alot like Gundam:Ecole Du Ciel
こんばんは、ダニーさん。 ユニコーンですかぁ。 角が1本ってのは斬新ですね。それから、カメラ部分はツインアイじゃないんですかね？ジム系みたいにつながっているように見えるような（それとも光で反射してるだけ？）・・・ まだ、完成型じゃないのかもしれないですが、カトキデザインなんで期待大です！
ellcy90さん、 確かにジムのほうに近いですね。このデザインですと「ガンダム」と呼べなくなるかも？でもかっこいい。 ごっどさん、 アニメ化がいいな〜。 toolset says no, That would be a very sharp d*ck... Winn Sevilla, Good one! That Turn A was a load of crud. Wildarmsheero, Thanks for pointing that out. I got carried away with the excitement of a new Gundam anime. Bridge Bunny, Thanks - typo ^^; Max Spider X, Have no idea...
Yeah, I think this is a cool design which is breakthrough then the traditional design, but it seem likes Tallgeese III. Looking forward to see the full design~! ^^
Illustration looks great, I hope I get to see the series/movie when it comes out!!
Guy who wrote the novel adaptations of V Gundam will be writing this one. And yes, it's only a novel, and not an anime. I think this won't be the first time the author and Katoki will be working together on a Gundam project but the design is definitely a nice deviation from the traditional binocular, v-fin Gundam head.
Hmmmm since Katoki Hajime also did the designs for Virtual On this design was inspired by this.
Wow, a nice & cool Gundam, i always like the artwork of Katoki Hajime. hmm, reminds me of evangelion..
nice i prefer Hajime Katoki's work over Kunio's
Just finished watching the Gundam Seed/destiny series I've been surfing the web of rumor floating around for a 3rd season of seed series..i am wondering if there's any relations to this
HEEYY!!!! don't say that like you can make mecha better like this!! katoki is an expert for designing, not like ''the sensei kunio okawara'' katoki always give an fresh and new but good-like, an if unicorn have a good design after all, if you say it ugly, you'll see!! an its a surprise that new U.C timeline story will come, and its designer is HAJIME KATOKI, Its More1000000x better than seed destiny i think
i like what i see as well... if its a Ver.Ka. "it must be good!" :p
according to some info i've read from one of the creator's blog, this is a Universal Century series - by the name Mobile Suit Gundam Unicorn, happens right after the Gryps War in the ZZ series, so it's expected to be a sequel, it also has a codename "ZZZ (Triple Zeta) Gundam" , kinda became a trilogy for the Z series... a manga version is to be realeased first and the will be produced into anime later... as for development of the story it is said that about 60% of the story has been planned and completed by the time this news was released. p.s. there's no confirmation that the mecha shown on the poster is in fact a Gundam... but it is indeed designed by Katoki.
sorry i meant novel there, not manga... the novel will be released in Gundam ACE, if all goes well it will be released in individual books later on, and then to be animated as well.
i like the design, its very nice. though does this mean they are done with Cosmic Era and thee will not be Gundam Seed anymore, awwwww. If i find anything on this i'll make sure to post it here. it looks interesting.
The Gundam SEED line is not dead as a movie based on the Cosmic Era is still in production. Well, actually I feel it's about time a new U.C story showed up.
yea i heard about the movie as well, awwww i don't this story to go away hehehe but i guess all good things must come to an end. :-) i didn't really spend muhc time looking, but so far did not find anything that has not beel already said here.
Title: Mobile Suit Gundam Unicorn Author: Harutoshi Fukui Supervisor: Shinichiro Inoue Mecha Designer: Hajime Katoki
Um... Tomino wrote the V Gundam novels, not this dude. This dude did a Turn A Gundam adaptation.
This is a UC Gundam novel, information points to it (supposedly) taking place in either UC 0096 or 0088. Here's some information from Zeonic Corps: THE CHARACTERS Banarge Lynks [バナージ・リンクス] Age :: 16 A boy who attends the Anaheim Industrial College located on the industrial colony known as "Industrial 7." Audrey Bahn [オードリー・バーン] Age :: 17 A girl with sapphire colored eyes, she possesses nobility and reason. A meeting with Barnage will greatly change her fate, especially when she ventures to "Industrial 7" alone... Full Frontal [フル・フロンタル] *(character detals not provided, but apparently he's Char or a char lookalike...with the name of a pornstar.) STORY DETAILS The story will take place in UC 0096. Apparently "something" happened in UC0001 that will forever change the course of history for both the Federation and the Zeon, but it is not stated what it is yet. I don't know if this is the canon story, it might be a different story altogether, but this was supposedly taken from Gundam ACE to be the story of the Gundam Unicorn Novel. Here's the link: http://forums.zeonic-republic.net/index.php?showforum=136
looks very crappy to me. All gundams right now are basically copies of the old one put together to form something
I totally Agree with the post below...I have done throught many series's of gundam & come to the conclusion that they are either modeled or ripped off from each other so nothing really special is being drawn out of the hat that hasnt been done b4....saying that, there are gundams that are unique & hopefully wont have the features that make THEM special ripped off. By this i mean not ripping the feather wings off Wing Zero Endless Waltz Custom & putting it on some next gundam becuase the writer/designer had a sudden brainstorm... it would be a crime to copy the Endless Waltz Custom. thank god nobodies actually tried it yet. but if they did Id probably make out a warrant banning the guy who came up idea from ready/watching anime. building models etc.... I dont want to seem like an arsehole but Wing Zero Custom edition is very special to me.....
Regarding Katoki Hajime, I pretty love his work on Mobile Suits. I wish this anime series wil be aired in the coming months.
ive never ever heard this gundam before but i definitly know that it is going 2 b the MG 102 which will b released in december i cant wait
I love the design! I hope it becomes an anime. Certainly different, but cool at the same time.
That's really cool, I love Katoki style. ^^ Who will be the pilot? Maybe Amuro Ray?
