Gundam AGE - Voice Actor List (....And Talking Gundam?)


Mobile Suit Gundam AGE Character Voice Actors:
Flit Asuno: Yuuko Sanpei
Asem Asuno: Yuka Nishigaki
Kio Asuno: Komatsu Mikako
Gundam AGE: Hiroshi Kamiya
Emily Armond: Minako Kotobuki
Ace Now: Yuuki Kaji
Grudech Aynor: Hiroki Touchi
Miles Aloi: Kitanishi Junko


A bit of new info for the upcoming Gundam AGE series. The list of voice actors are confirmed.  But what is interesting here is that Gundam AGE is also voiced.  And there were rumors going around that the Gundam in the series can talk... Perhaps it is like 'J.A.R.V.I.S.', the personal artificial intelligence computer program for Tony Stark (Iron Man movies), which assisted him to construct & maintain the function of the Iron Man suit.  Or perhaps, Gundam AGE will be a sentient computerized being to be sort of like a teacher for the main protagonists.  Hardcore Gundam fans might already have a gripe with the idea of a talking Gundam.
But not to worry... Level-5 boss Akihiro Hino addressed chatter that Gundam mechas will talk in MS Gundam AGE, calling it a "misunderstanding" that the mecha can speak. According Hino, the series will be kid friendly, but won't deviate from traditional Gundam conventions. So no talking giant mechas!
The Akihiro Hino penned Gundam Age anime debuts this fall as Level-5 is working on an Age title.
Thanks Joyce for this info!

  1. i am not surprised to see that the AGE will be voiced, too^^ i kinda expected that.
    maybe it will be a little like the ALICE system of the S and EX-S gundam in gundam sentinel and it will actually be able to intervene if the suit is about to get heavily damaged or the pilot close to being killed.

  2. The material for the show gave me the impression that his mother was part of the design team for the AGE and that part of her soul went into the AGE chip. I imagine that the voice actor for the mother and the AGE are going to be the same and it is going to talk to him either though the computer or only to him in a 'ghost' kind of way.

  4. it's probably the kid talking inside the gundam on a different tone because of his gundam speakers.

  6. After learning that Hiroshi Kamiya is voicing AGE, I'm actually pretty excited now to see how this plays out.

  7. Kamiya Hiroshi = GARGundam.

    Jokes aside, the first thing that came into mind was the Arm Slave AI (particularly Al). I wonder how they'll pull this off.

  8. Okay, clarifications: The AGE referred to here isn't the Gundam, but the AGE Device Flit uses, or AGE System. Not the actual Gundam AGE-1.

  10. If a Gundam ever talks, the first thing I'd expect it to say is," ..........Ore wa Gundam da!" lol
