For what it's worth, the manga spin-off G-Unit (which was adapted into a set of missions in SD Gundam G Generation Cross Rays) actually has two Gundams codenamed Geminass 01 and Geminass 02.

I think the reason Mercurius and Vayaete were given the names they were is because they were developed by the Gundam scientists, and they sure as hell weren't going to entirely follow OZ's naming themes.

I mean, they still did follow OZ's naming scenes given their designations were still OZ-MS-whatever. They can call it whatever they want, it would be even weirder if OZ didn't say "haha. No. ZODIAC SIGN NAMES FOREVER."

It also helps that the Mercurius and Vayaete were only test-bed prototype designs and not intended for mass production and use by OZ. The actual OZ units based on them were named after the Virgo Zodiac sign.

Gundam Breaker 4 trailer.

Wake me up at your own risk.

Haha, nice try.

I'll look into this after it comes out.

New Gundam Breaker was the last game I preordered... ever... and now I'm literally never going to preorder another game.

I'm more cautiously optimistic, more than anything. According to what people have seen, it looks more in line with GB3 than NGB.

Which is something, I guess?

I, for one, am very excited, as they've already said the mechanics from New Gundam Breaker will not be returning, and all indications are it's a return to the older Gundam Breaker games.

And it's going to be available in English too, which is nice.

I'm with Dark Hunter on this. This game is official confirmation that NGB doesn't matter anymore. WE WON BROS WHAT HAPPENED HERE WAS A MIRACLE AND I WANT YOU TO FUCKIN ACKNOWLEDGE IT

Oh, I'm sure. They're very actively backpedaling from NGB, but... seriously. That game burned me. It has forever destroyed the concept of preordering. That's impressive.

For those in the UK, SEED Freedom will premiere in British theaters on March 23 and 24 while London-based theaters will get it early on March 17 but tickets for that release are sold out.

February 28 edit - Lynn does a cover of "Shukufuku". Yes, it's the 1st opening song of Witch of Mercury sung by Miorine Rembran herself:

Huh. Don't know why, but Miorine's VA being mixed race makes sense to me.

Characters.Mobile Suit Gundam SEED Freedom Compass currently has others under it while other Gundam pages have Others as separate pages. Should its others be split off to a separate page?

And should Characters.Mobile Suit Gundam SEED Freedom The Foundation be spoilers off given at least half their tropes are spoiled out due to the "twist" (which was so obvious the trailers didn't try to hide it) they're the villains?

For US-based tropers, SEED Freedom will be showing in theaters in Los Angeles and New York City.

For those not in LA nor NYC, a wider release is planned.

Not just that, it will be dubbed by the NYAV Post crew.

Which... it's a divisive reaction to say the least.

The NYAV Post dub is the better of the two dubs so I'm here for it.

“Gundam Requiem for Vengeance” Trailer

... it seems like just more glorification of Zeon...

That trailer could be actual in-universe Zeon propaganda. Literally nothing would have to change.

Wonder if there's a GM version of the EX?

With a "0", not an "O".
