1.Introduction
Mobile Suit Gundam GQuuuuuuX is a mecha anime produced by Sunrise and Color, the same studios behind the Evangelions series. It premiered in the Spring of 2025.
This is the first new Gundam series since Mobile Suit Gundam: The Witch from Mercury in 2023.
In this article, I’ll share my thoughts on the whole series, covering its plot, animation, characters, and overall impressions.
2. Plot summary
The protagonist is Machu, an ordinary girl living in Side 6 of a space colony. One day, she meets an unknown girl named Nyaan and gets involved in a battle called “Clan Battles,” a competition between teams of mobile suits.
Then, Machu meets a mysterious boy named Syuji Ito, who pilots the Red Gundam, and becomes interested in his emotions. Machu starts to help Syuji pursue his dream, and even follows when he disappears into Zeknova, a mysterious phenomenon.
At first, I was anxious because I couldn’t follow the fast-paced story, especially in Episode 2. Of course I knew the original Mobile Suit Gandam, and I was confused by the person piloting the Gundam.
Eventually, I was able to understand the story and I was satisfied with it. I’m sure this anime is the best in a decade.
3. Animation & Art Style
The animation quality in “Mobile Suit Gundam GQuuuuuuX” is very good, though CG Techniques aren’t exactly state-of-the-art. I felt that when I saw the Evangelion: series, particularly EVANGELION:3.0 and EVANGELION3.0+1.0. I think Eva TV series looked even better despite being much older.
But, the characters of this anime were so attractive. I’m sure the animation made it.
4. Characters
I’d like to talk about Challia Bull. He is not original charactor of this anime — he comes from the original Mobile Suit Gundam, but he was reimagined as new charactor here.
Honestly, I can’t remember original Challia Bull. I remember he piloted the Braw Bro, which was made for Newtypes, but I can’t remember anything elsse another things of him. This anime focused on his new aspect, and I’m sure it was success.
5. Overall Impressions & Final Verdict
Mobile Suit Gundam GQuuuuuuX left the best impression on me. If you saw First Gandam, you would enjoy this anime series. I say it again — it’s the best anime of the past decade. You have to watch this anime.
