Mobile Suit Gundam: GQuuuuuuX
Oshimeter
Synopsis
Living a quiet life in a space colony, high school student Amate Yuzuriha carries only faint memories of a devastating war that ended six years ago. That changes when she meets Nyaan, a war refugee with a sharp edge and a connection to an underground scene Amate didn't know existed: Clan Battle, an illegal mobile suit dueling sport where pilots throw down in stolen and salvaged mechs for reputation and survival. Amate ends up behind the controls of a prototype Gundam, the GQuuuuuuX, fighting under the alias 'Machu,' and things escalate fast when a mysterious pilot named Shuji shows up in an unidentified Gundam with both the military and police on his tail. This is a Gundam show, but the vibe is different. It's less war drama and more post-war fallout filtered through teenage restlessness and underground fight culture. Think the school-life-meets-mecha energy of Mobile Suit Gundam: The Witch from Mercury crossed with the emotional weight of Neon Genesis Evangelion, but with its own identity. The collaboration between Sunrise and Khara (yes, the Evangelion studio) gives it a visual texture that feels genuinely fresh for the franchise. Kenshi Yonezu on the soundtrack doesn't hurt either. At 12 episodes, it's tight. If you liked Code Geass for its moral gray areas and shifting loyalties, this scratches a similar itch, just in a smaller, more personal package. It doesn't waste your time.

All I can say as a gundam fan, quite disappointed in this series. This feels like pacific rim 2. Fan will know when you watch it. They introduce a kid but it's worst than unicorn.
Takes place in a timeline where Zeon has already won, but things still feel messy. Machu doesn’t just get dragged in; she runs straight into the chaos. When GQuuuuuuX chooses her, it’s a really cool moment. Fast, exciting, and keeps you curious. Worth a watch.
A nostalgic callback to the original Gundam series from 1979. Fans of the franchise will immediately see the episode's parallels with Gundam's first ever episode with more modern animation and an alternate timeline. 10/10 setup episode for the rest of the series.
A sudden character development spike for Nyaan and the beginnings of a dramatic, romantic jealousy from Machu for future episodes. Enokido (writer) could have done more with Machu's reaction to episode 4's events however after seeing her first death.
This needs to not be the final episode of this. Twelve episodes for this concept is a crime and it's an insult to the characters Khara spent 7 episodes hyping up. It's important to note this show is really for the Japanese merch audience, but nevertheless, it's soooo shallow.
Great episode with lots of fanservice for OG fans, but was extremely rushed. Overall a good series but could have used a good extra 5-12 episodes.
Incredible plot episode but sadly it extremely rushed, though the OST goes really hard at the end
Intense episode with lots of twists, but it feels very very rushed.
Feels like it suppose to be an emotional episode with some OG cameos, yet it feel rushed and doesn't give enough time for scenes to settle in proper
Episode with quite abit of plot twists but everything feels very rushed and even plot set up points seem to pay off way too fast for mysteries to last.
Intense emotion and plot progression with some interesting mecha scenes. Though it also feels very rushed
Slow episode with very interesting character development, but yet it feels rushed and slow at the same time
Nice call back to the OG series with the plot deepening greatly and large plot twists
Interesting character development with insanely good battle sequences
Back to present time with amazing action from Mazhu and Shuji. Plot deepens and action gets crazier
Peak episode where Char gets to shine alot. Alternate UC universe with amazing char action. OST also goes so hard.
Amazing first episode with some really good world building and fights
Best impact frame
