The highly anticipated Mobile Suit Gundam: GQuuuuuuX has arrived for North American audiences, introducing a fresh "alternate history" storyline and a challenging-to-pronounce name (allegedly "G-Queue-x"). Accompanied by a new line of model kits, this series is described by IGN's Juan Barquin as "exactly the kind of inventive reimagining of Gundam we deserve." The show bears the influence of another monumental sci-fi series, thanks to its creative team including director Kazuya Tsurumaki (co-director of End of Evangelion), writer Yoji Enokido (known for classics like FLCL, Revolutionary Girl Utena, Ouran High School Host Club, and Bungo Stray Dogs, as well as contributing to Neon Genesis Evangelion), and the visionary behind Evangelion, Hideaki Anno. With such talent at the helm, fans can expect a thrilling and unique addition to the Gundam saga.
If you're eager to dive into Mobile Suit Gundam: GQuuuuuuX or want to revisit the original Gundam series, here's your guide:
Amate Yuzuriha, a high school student living in a space colony, finds her peaceful life disrupted when she encounters a war refugee named Nyaan. Drawn into the world of Clan Battle, an illegal mobile suit dueling sport, Amate's journey begins. You can stream the new Gundam series exclusively on Prime Video, which is not available on Netflix or Crunchyroll. A standalone Prime Video subscription is priced at $7.99/month, while a full Amazon Prime membership, which includes Prime shipping benefits, costs $14.99/month. New subscribers can enjoy a 30-day free trial.
Mobile Suit Gundam: GQuuuuuuX premiered in Japan as a feature film comprising four episodes. For North American viewers, individual episodes will be released every Tuesday on Prime Video starting April 8. While the exact number of episodes remains uncertain, the recent Gundam series The Witch from Mercury had 12 episodes per season. Stay tuned for updates on the episode count.
Alternative histories are no stranger to the Gundam universe, but GQuuuuuuX presents a major twist: the Principle of Zeon secures the prototype Gundam, altering the course of the One Year War. Here's the official synopsis:
Amate Yuzuriha, a high school student living peacefully in a space colony, is drawn into the world of Clan Battle, an illegal mobile suit dueling sport, after meeting a war refugee named Nyaan.
