Ice Dragon v2 Posted February 22, 2002 Share Posted February 22, 2002 From [url]http://www.alteredstatesmag.com/mar2002/bandai_gundam.shtml[/url] G Gundam G Gundam is coming to Cartoon Network this Fall, and Bandai is putting a huge support campaign behind it. Similar to the one that was used for the OYW Gundam stuff last year, fans can expect a huge quantity of product to spend their money on. So far it is known in the English version, the God Gundam will be called the Burning Gundam, and the Devil Gundam will be called the Dark Gundam. A few others of the mobile fighters also seem to have undergone renaming, though it is not yet clear which names apply to them. Heres more from [url]http://animeblues.netfirms.com/[/url] According to Altered States Magazine, not only will Gundam 0083 be coming to the Cartoon Network, it will be joined by Gundam movie 4: Char's Counterattack, and Mobile Fighter G-Gundam later this year. Altered States Magazine has published several photos of upcoming American release G-Gundam toys and models, along with word that several of the G-Gundam mecha will be given new names for the American release. Confirmed new names: GF13-017NJII God Gundam - new name: Burning Gundam JDG-009X Devil Gundam - new name: Dark Gundam Unconfirmed new names: GF13-021N Gundam Spiegel - new name Shadow Gundam GF13-003NEL Johnbull Gundam - new name: Royal Gundam GF13-052NT Minaret Gundam - new name: Gundam Scimitar GF4-001NE Pharoah Gundam IV - new name: Mummy Gundam Gundam Heaven Sword - new name: Raven Gundam Death Army - new name: Dark Army In my opinion, Cartoon Network just killed the series even before it came out. Wanna know why?? The name changes. Those fruitty :BLEEP:. The names God and Devil Gundams aren't gonna cause some religious controversy. If it does, then those :BLEEP: can die for it.

Guest Hikaru Ichijyo Posted February 22, 2002 Share Posted February 22, 2002 puting on such a bad anime in my opinion, why put the sterotyping/racist show know as Mobile Fighter G-Gundam that show had no plot back then and im sure it will have even less now! Cartoon Network made a big mistake one that will defintely hurt them when the ratings come in! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ice Dragon v2 Posted February 22, 2002 Author Share Posted February 22, 2002 Technically, people like G Gundam because of the fighting. Either way, the ratings are gonna be shot because of the dam name change. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amphion Posted February 23, 2002 Share Posted February 23, 2002 funny I was just now about to post about the same thing. I also wanted to mention the fact of the name changes and Cartoon Network having to make sure it is Politically correct. I was looking forward to it untill I read the part about the changes. True they nmay not seem that big but who knows they could change more. It doesnt matter how big the changes are i just dont like it when they make stuff PC. Its about as stupid as a gender freindly bible. About 5 years from now you want be able to have a show that mentions anything towards anykind of religious beleif, specifies a gender, or is in any way a negetive thought, picture, or word. May not beleive me but look at history. look how we are progressing over time. Each year we get more and more PC. God forbid someone gets their feelings hurt. It must be the end of the world when I get called stupid. Maybe Ill start sueing every name caller i can find.......Sorry got carried away there. Im through with my preaching now. (woops preaching is a rleigious term better edit that out, I might offend an atheist.) (Sorry bout my harping on the subject I was mainly trying to point out how stupid it all is. Of course I could be blowing it out of proportion.) What do you guys think? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flash Posted February 23, 2002 Share Posted February 23, 2002 ...And to think that when I first heard they were dubbing G Gundam for release to the rest of the world, I was pleased... Bah, should have known better. Dubbing can [I]never[/I] be good.. :rolleyes: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zero-Sama Posted February 24, 2002 Share Posted February 24, 2002 So what you guys are saying is those stupid baka's just ruined a series for me 6 mouths before it starts? *Walks of with shotgun to get revenge* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sephiroth Posted February 25, 2002 Share Posted February 25, 2002 yeah, I knew about g gundam being dubbed months ago, looks like they're going to show it in the US soon, too bad about the name changes though, thats going to seriously suck....

[/B][/QUOTE] What's up with that? Movies that have stuff (Religious) like that in them (Stigmata, Devil's advocate, End of Days.. etc) never get a bad rap, they ususally just get praised and stuff. No headlines or anything. Then when an Anime or a Cartoon uses them, they get all pissy. I wish people would understand.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had heard about the release before but not all the new names.by the way cn and its producers have always been dumb but you got to figure changing the names of god and devil gundams was kind of smart. last thing they need is to get bashed by the christian coalition.i mean if religion was not a factor eva would have been released long ago.

Ice Dragon v2 Posted March 5, 2002 Author Share Posted March 5, 2002 Blah, I'm gonna write to CN saying that they should leave it the names alone.

I agree that CN will make a big mistake in showing that one first, though I guess it's better than nothing. Or, have they just thought that a Dragonball-like mecha anime will somehow boost their ratings? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chaos Posted March 11, 2002 Share Posted March 11, 2002 In any case, they might make up for G Gundam if they: 1) Move 0083 to Toonami 2) Stop CENCORING everything on Toonami.
