"SEED overpowers most gundams"? What does that even mean? You saying the name of the series overpowers actual gundams? Either way we just saw the mighty Freedom get raped by the Dijeh. Best kill EVER.
I love how battles are determined by skill. A Gyan beating the crap out of Wing will never happen in a crossover game.
And to be realistic, Gyan's one of the first HGUC's that had the same quality as the old EW Wing HGs. If model quality determines performance, the custom painted HGAC Wing beats that Gyan in spades (made by apparently, a mediocre if not crappy modeler).
If plavsky particles exist in the real world, Bandai's gonna be sleeping on a bed made of money. Just imagine all those broken gunpla's causing people to keep on buying models to be able to battle.
This isn't a gunpla addicts dream, this is Bandai's dream! What happens to your gunpla in the game happens to the real thing. Makes Gunpla an even more expensive hobby.
Very cheesy but very likeable. Also, lol they actually have Meer's Zaku in the third pic from the bottom. I also can't tell what that MS is between the Zaku Mariner and DINN (a Hamma Hamma/Juagg hybrid?).
"Planning Assistance: Bandai Hobby Products Department" -- Anime News Network ...Oh boy. It's now obvious that Bandai isn't even trying to hide the fact that they're assisting with this anime series to churn out model kits.
After seeing Episode 01, I will say that the series is pretty good, but it's only a little bit better than Gunpla Builders Beginning G.
I really don't think that the Gundam franchise is going to last any longer if they keep continuing with this 'reboot' mentality and marketing the franchise for kids. It started with Gundam Age which was like half way marketed for kids and half towards the casual/semi hardcore Gundam fans. But now this seems to me that they're taking a step towards the wrong direction.
I rank them (as in the 'reboot' style of Gundams starting with Beginning G) as: Gundam Age > Gundam Build Fighter > GunPla Builders Beginning G
I really wish they would do something more traditional.
Something I didn't like in this anime was how after they battle, the damage is actually done to the actual kit? How the heck is that even possible? Wouldn't that kind of make kids less motivated to buy GunPla? Like maybe the kid might think stuff like this exists in real life and they can break their precious kits.
Anyway, I'm curious to see how this series does as time goes on, and if Bandai will be motivated and confident enough to do other scales of plamo for Build Fighter aside from HGs.
Well, god forbid a franchise originally made for kids tries to appeal to kids!
Expecting Gundam to always is cater to the jaded old hardcore fan is selfish and you know it. Besides, Unicorn and Origin are coming next year so you have no right to complain. If a franchise is to survive, it needs to attract a younger audience every few decades. That was what G Gundam was for and now we have Build Fighters.
If anything this series is showing more promise in its first episode than most "serious" Gundam series.
This post reeks of "dem damn kids get off my lawn!"
Seriously, Gundam has ALWAYS been targeted towards kids, especially the very first show. Catering to children is precisely how this franchise got past 0079.
hmmph in this story, if you lose the fight, your gunpla will be damaged in reality..then you have to replace with a new one (or just buy some parts). well, business is business. CMIIW
Funnels are a great advantage and everyone know they're strong but they're not as fun to watch. And with better animation technology and with the premise allowing shounen-fight-style choreography, we now see a lot of kicking, evading, and even quick turns we only used to see in martial arts anime/manga
If you want a ridiculous funnel battle, it should be SF vs Zabanya. The problem though is the battle would be a one-sided affair in favor of the Zabanya.
The first episode of a new series and all that's stuck in my head is Mr. Ral acting as a gunpla battle judge.
TBH, this is something a little different from usual Gundam shows, the most memorable ones as of late had cliffhangers or important plot points revealed while this one's a little more relaxed, kind of a pokemon-y feel to it.
Is it me or Gundam Build Fighters is just like ALADDIN?
The story is downright child's play, shallow and predictable, the characters are just not interesting and got no depths. The use of many Gunplas from many series just doesn't give this title an identity of its own, which is no different from fan made fanfictions. Digimons, Pokemons and LBXs however are more original than this kindergarten level show, which also show how bankrupt of ideas Bandai really is now.
And this time, Bandai has finally reveal Gundam animes' real faces as 30 minute long TV commercials-aiming to brainwash 3 years old into wasting more money buying useless Gunplas.
Why are you here? You obviously know jack shit about gundam if you think all previous shows were not also blatant toy adverts. And you are certainly not a fan if you consider gunpla to be useless.
yea. if i dont get the Ending of UC and Origin at next Year. Gundam can get off my notice grid. since 00/AGE has already made me half give up on gundam if it wasnt the UC then brought me back. AND yes. Seed/Seed destiny is THAT bad compared to the shitty 00/AGE/This shit.
Sazaki, somehow I thought he would pilot Build Gundam MK2. The Build moniker, will it be Sei's creation? Could there be team battles?
Wonder if they will go into the company and inventors of the Gunpla Battle system? Like in Dandoard Senki and Medarot.
Reiji is kind of a fantasy element. What is his motive of appearing on Earth? Its like some epic event will happen after all the filler fights like the Devil Gundam stuff after all the Gundam Fight.
I look forward to the revelation of the true plot (unless its grounded in reality).
Sei's mom is pretty cool, talking like a gunota just like that :P
A simple plot is good too but Reiji makes my mind churn. The stone and his bracelet, how he grasped the basics of gunpla battle so fast, he talk about the dignity of his family, the mention of Arian. All seem to hint at something out of the ordinary.
Was thinking maybe the current arc is Sei's arc. The pattern of battle of the week? Clashes with the other characters and the formation of a 'Shuffle Alliance' with Ma-oh X, Fernice W, Bearguy-san, Build Mk2?
Then maybe next will be the Reiji arc? Where his motives are revealed? Or is he being chased by others from Arian and his pursuers will appear one by one and do gunpla battle with them?
Or perhaps Arian is just some fictional country on Earth? Reiji did mention that Japan (or Earth?) is much bigger than Arian.
Also thinking if there is any possiblity of Sei vs Reiji down the road.
Since Dijeh appeared in this ep then we expect a HGUC Dijeh next year... right?
Why? cuz I have a feeling that this series will be little realistic in terms of availability of the MS appeared
sample: HGAC Wing Gundam does not exist before this series but in their script, a Wing Gundam should appear and later be customized as Wing Gundam Fenice
IT BEGINS! And with a Detachable Build Strike Arm, Ramba Ral Cameo and NEWTYPES IN THE MIX!
ReplyDeleteOh and Build Strike looks a lot better in the anime, better than the plain vanilla Strike.
you would like it you seedfag, you are no better than suiton being a namefag
Deleteyou deserve to die a horrible death
You deserve the same fate for being disrespectful. Seed overpowers most gundams so other gundam fans are jealous. Just build your own OP suit...
Delete"SEED overpowers most gundams"? What does that even mean? You saying the name of the series overpowers actual gundams?
DeleteEither way we just saw the mighty Freedom get raped by the Dijeh. Best kill EVER.
more like some
DeleteZeta, ZZ, CCA, Unicorn, F91, Crossbone, Victory, 00 movie and others i cant think right now
and dude while i agree with you one the 1st sentence, seriously anon 12:06 is being a bully, the 2nd one pretty much asking for trolls and flamewar
*Zeta, ZZ, CCA, Unicorn, F91, Crossbone, Victory, 00 movie MS are stronger*

'The uploader has not made this video available in your country.' Boo, I thought the media hint chrome extension was supposed to fix this.
ReplyDeleteSoo... Who else thinks Reiji's a Djinn?
ReplyDeleteExia appears only as a cameo? The heck, bandai???!!!
ReplyDelete1st episode you dumbass. There are a lot more to come.
DeleteIf plavsky particles exist in the real world, Bandai's gonna be sleeping on a bed made of money. Just imagine all those broken gunpla's causing people to keep on buying models to be able to battle.
ReplyDeleteSoooooo...
ReplyDeleteAnyone else think the MC's mom is sexy hot as fuck?
Would she loves my stir fry cucumber? 8D
DeleteHow does a woman like THAT end up in a model shop?!
Deletehttp://en.gundam.info/web/buildfighters/chara_detail06.html
DeletePOWER OF GUNPLA OF COURSE
(Why arent this happening irl ;_;)
So if I win the Gunpla championship, I too can score a hot chick like that?
DeleteHis dad is one lucky bastard.
power of gunpla....... err no, partially incorrect
DeletePOWER OF PLASTIC!
his mom must've undergo lot of plastic surgery.. lol
LOL why am I not surprised to see such comment?
DeleteDammit anon 9:51 THE PUN, IT BUUUURNS XD
Deletepsssh
Deleteim sure she likes cucumbers raw and hard
giggity giggity
What a bunch of MOTHERFUCKERS we have here
DeleteThe pun
DeleteIts killing me
Wait for the doujinshi >:D
DeleteIN PIXIV WE THRUST OUR TRUSTS
Delete(Lotsa one shots of -those- at pixiv already, there will be some despite all them kancolle madness upupupupupupu)
Woohoo! A new age of Gundam has begun! Haters be damned.
ReplyDeletewow went a lot better than i expected
ReplyDeleteYup I'm hooked. Will watch next week's episode.
DeleteAmen to that :]
Deleteand look at those sexy PG kit
ReplyDeleteThis isn't a gunpla addicts dream, this is Bandai's dream!
ReplyDeleteWhat happens to your gunpla in the game happens to the real thing. Makes Gunpla an even more expensive hobby.
Hooked from the first episode :D And my HG Wing is on the way!!!
ReplyDeleteVery cheesy but very likeable. Also, lol they actually have Meer's Zaku in the third pic from the bottom. I also can't tell what that MS is between the Zaku Mariner and DINN (a Hamma Hamma/Juagg hybrid?).
ReplyDeleteThat's the Gundam Aesculapius in close combat mode from Gundam Wing G-Unit.

If you build gunpla and/or play gundam video games then you are just a hypocritical asshole if you complain about the concept of this show.
DeleteThe model kit "breaks" after battle, but not damaged.
ReplyDeleteJust that the joints all pop out from their sockets.
Do you not see the Wing Gundam? That matches up pretty much perfectly with the Dictionary's definition of broken.
Delete^^^ this guy
DeleteThe only part of the show I laughed at was the AI announced a desert as "dessert"
ReplyDeleteIt just wouldn't be Gundam without unintentionally hilarious engrish.
DeleteHow did Ramba Ral survive and get teleported to a different dimension?
ReplyDeleteHe performed human transmutation as he was falling to his death and crossed the portal of truth into our world XD
DeleteTHE TWIST: Reiji is Sei's spilt personality ala Tyler Durden XD
ReplyDelete"Rule No. 1: You do not talk about Gunpla battle"
"Rule No. 2: You DO NOT talk about Gunpla battle!"
hmmph in this story, if you lose the fight, your gunpla will be damaged in reality..then you have to replace with a new one (or just buy some parts). well, business is business. CMIIW
ReplyDeleteSo in other words: Gunpla die if they are killed!
DeleteAnon 9:16 I see what you did there
Deletei saw a Turn A, Turn X, and it even looked like there was a gold SUMO...
ReplyDeleteHG WHEN
there was also crossbone
DeleteDon't end up like Sword Art Online. That's all I ask.
ReplyDeleteI'm from Mexico.........I cant see the video (TnT)
ReplyDeletewow it really is broken
ReplyDeletewhat a high risk game .....
Sei is the Nobuo Akagi of Gundam., and it is awesome.
ReplyDeletewaiting high-level battle between Hi-Nu fin funnel vs SFreedom dragoon.
ReplyDeleteor Kshatriya funnel vs Providence dragoon.
come on Bandai!
melee combat is only for beginner.
Are you joking?
DeleteMelee > all other types of gundam combat. Especially if its just fists like Domon uses or the Nu vs Sazabi grudge match.
Funnels are a great advantage and everyone know they're strong but they're not as fun to watch.
DeleteAnd with better animation technology and with the premise allowing shounen-fight-style choreography, we now see a lot of kicking, evading, and even quick turns we only used to see in martial arts anime/manga
Sword Fight combined with Funnel dogfight at the same time! Now, that's better!!
DeleteIf you want a ridiculous funnel battle, it should be SF vs Zabanya. The problem though is the battle would be a one-sided affair in favor of the Zabanya.
DeleteReal gunpla fight in melee, not hide behind pussy tactics like using bits and funnels XD.
ReplyDeleteBeam saber all the way~
Well, at least it's not lackluster SEED.
ReplyDeleteGood riddance.
Copyfags always complains about SEED in their entire lives. Get a life or even a real NAME moron George!
DeleteWhere can I get this with a japanese sub ?
ReplyDeleteAlso on Gundam.info... But why, if you speak/type english?
Delete(Honestly curious)
it's good for learning japanese...anyway I didn't find any GUNDAM BUILD FIGHTERS episode on that site you mentioned.
DeleteIt's like Micheal Bay made Gundam awesome!
ReplyDeleteMichael Bay cannot make a show like this if his life depended on it.
DeleteIs that... Ramba ral in real life?
ReplyDeleteThe first episode of a new series and all that's stuck in my head is Mr. Ral acting as a gunpla battle judge.
ReplyDeleteTBH, this is something a little different from usual Gundam shows, the most memorable ones as of late had cliffhangers or important plot points revealed while this one's a little more relaxed, kind of a pokemon-y feel to it.

DeleteAnd you are certainly not a fan if you consider gunpla to be useless.
Name me one Gundam show whose very existence isn't to sell toys.
DeleteYeah I thought so.
yea. if i dont get the Ending of UC and Origin at next Year.
ReplyDeleteGundam can get off my notice grid. since 00/AGE has already made me half give up on gundam if it wasnt the UC then brought me back.
AND yes. Seed/Seed destiny is THAT bad compared to the shitty 00/AGE/This shit.
and is = isnt THAT bad. mis-spelled it
DeleteI'm liking this better than Unicorn. Yeah go ahead and shoot me.
DeleteNice music.
ReplyDeleteI wonder what the main story will be after all the filler fights end?
Though I'm guessing its going to be this pattern.
Sei's father, wonder will he play a big part later on..
Makes me think of Danboard Senki.
Reiji, where is he from?
Arian? An alternate world?
Makes me think of Tales of Symphonia, which has its second half in another world.
Will there be fantasy or will it be grounded in reality?
(Reiji already brings in the fantasy to me though)
Some more points to add on:
ReplyDeleteSazaki, somehow I thought he would pilot Build Gundam MK2.
The Build moniker, will it be Sei's creation?
Could there be team battles?
Wonder if they will go into the company and inventors of the Gunpla Battle system? Like in Dandoard Senki and Medarot.
Reiji is kind of a fantasy element.
What is his motive of appearing on Earth?
Its like some epic event will happen after all the filler fights like the Devil Gundam stuff after all the Gundam Fight.
I look forward to the revelation of the true plot (unless its grounded in reality).
Sei's mom is pretty cool, talking like a gunota just like that :P
I think we should enjoy a simple shonen plot once in a while. Gunpla Battle Regional Championship to World championship with Japan Team etc.
DeleteAnd I wouldn't mind the Sazaki kid getting the Build Mk II, hope he learns to respect GunPla
A simple plot is good too but Reiji makes my mind churn.
DeleteThe stone and his bracelet, how he grasped the basics of gunpla battle so fast, he talk about the dignity of his family, the mention of Arian.
All seem to hint at something out of the ordinary.

Or is he being chased by others from Arian and his pursuers will appear one by one and do gunpla battle with them?
Or perhaps Arian is just some fictional country on Earth?
Reiji did mention that Japan (or Earth?) is much bigger than Arian.
Also thinking if there is any possiblity of Sei vs Reiji down the road.
Since Dijeh appeared in this ep then we expect a HGUC Dijeh next year... right?
