Gundam’s 30th anniversary next year marked by two new works
Tomino Yoshiyuki was the first to direct Gundam, and since then a number of other directors have tried their hand inheriting the Gundam legacy, including 2 new works in 2007: the 12 part TV animation Mobile Suit Gundam 00 (Double 0) and the novel Mobile Suit Gundam UC (Unicorn). They are both important works in the 30 year history of Gundam.

※Mobile Suit Gundam UC is a must read for Gundam fans. The detailed discriptions of each Gundam is really good for the uninitiated as well. Volumes 1-5 published by Kadokawa Shoten are on sale now.
It’s the depth that gets you in
Japanese anime is under the spotlight throughout the world, and the Gundam figurines are making inroads not only in Japan, but in Asia and Europe as well. The constant release of the high quality sequels including Mobile Suit Gundam Z, Mobile Suit Gundam 0083 Stardust Memory and ∀ Gundam may be the secret behind the continuing (or increasing) popularity of Gundam. To commemorate the 30th anniversary of Gundam, why don’t you check out the whole series on a long autumn night?
