CATDOLL: The father of Gundam admits: "Gundam G: Restoration Movement" completely lost to "One Piece"

Speaking of the "Father of Gundam", Yoshiyuki Tomino, anime fans must be familiar with him. As the animation master who created the first generation of "Mobile Suit Gundam", Tomino has always had a strong presence. And his previous sharp words about the "Gundam" animation are also memorable. However, the animation "Gundam G Reconstruction" produced by Yoshiyuki Tomino did not receive a very good response. Although it was announced later that three theatrical versions would be launched, even he himself lacks confidence now. Recently, when he attended an event, Yoshiyuki Tomino also admitted that "Gundam G Reconstruction" completely lost to "One Piece".

This time, when talking about the six months he spent making the first theatrical version of "Gundam Reconstruction", Tomino said that although he had said before that he would make three theatrical versions, if the response to this theatrical version was not good, he would not make the second one. He also believed that if a work wants to be popular, it must follow the trend of the times, otherwise it will definitely not be popular. And the facts also show that the animation "Gundam Reconstruction in G" has completely lost to "One Piece".

Tomino said: "The TV version of "G Restoration" is not really about telling a story, but about introducing the setting and characters of the story. The story of "G Restoration" wants to make everyone reflect on the problems of modern society that are constantly polluted by technological progress and financial capitalism. The reason why "G Restoration" failed commercially is that although the animation is aimed at children, children do not like this work. Works that fail to catch the trend of the times will definitely not be popular. In this regard, this Gundam animation completely lost to "One Piece". The audience for the theatrical version is no longer specifically children. It is produced for more people, so the plot needs to be modified. But if the first theatrical version is still unpopular, I will not be able to make a second theatrical version." I wonder how Tomino will modify the plot? In this case, will the theatrical version of "G Restoration" be different from the previous TV version? It seems that we can only look forward to it. Of course, he later said: If a work can move adults, then children should also be moved.

Many Japanese netizens commented: "Finally there is news about the movie version! But I feel that the bald man is not confident enough?", "Why did he bring up One Piece again? How much does the bald man care about One Piece?" In fact, Tomino Yoshiyuki has always been very confident in his "Gundam" works, but with the development of animation, new "Gundam" works are often difficult to attract audiences. Even "Gundam G Restoration" supervised by Tomino Yoshiyuki himself has received mediocre response. It seems that it may be time for the "Gundam" series to seek new products. I wonder what everyone thinks about this? Let's discuss it together.
