Hey guys, hope you are checking @mrvava63.bsky.social's articles on GAINAX's history, namely the Nadia one! It's great! And. . .youll probably see said research lifted in someone's video some time in the nearer future I'm sure. read it here: elucubrationsdunpingouin.wordpress.com/2025/09/01/h...

「――それがなぜ、1984年に終焉を迎えたのですか？ 藤津： 「簡単に言うと、ポスト『マクロス』を狙った作品がヒットしなかったからです。」 note.com/found/n/neba...

「しかし、その時はまだ『アニメ』ではなく、『テレビまんが』と呼ばれていた時代でした。よって、私は、1977年から1984年を『第1次』と定義しています」」 note.com/found/n/neba...

This one is also available in the artbook "Gundam 30th anniversary Tenchi Sozo" along with a lot of other V Gundam art made for Newtype

Hate that some of the best Cronicle illustrations are hidden away in a rare artbook, so I'm stuck with someone's photos I stole or otherwise lower quality images. One was reused for a trading card, which I own, and the other was reprinted in a Newtype 100% book but it gets cut off in the spine.

good morning! watch my new video if you havent yet

I took these pictures earlier in the week, when I thought it was Saturday (it was actually Tuesday). No sense in wasting the pick. 1995’s Super Real Mahjong PV Custom, for the PC Engine Super CD-ROM² System (Arcade Card compatible). #randomgamesaturday

There was an AnimeCon ‘91 convention report (by Neil Nadelman, I think?) that mentioned some folks showing off their Nadia fansub at a party where all the Gainax guys were in attendance.

Seconding this. It was pretty much *everywhere* in the fandom scene for a good part of the '90s. It was big enough that it was still getting magazine covers on smaller press going into '93-ish (?) with Animenominous and V-Max

the Streamline Pictures dub was 1992, pretty soon after the show aired in Japan, I think it being out there might have dampened the fansubber enthusiasm. That, and the Nadia movie being really awful

yup, that's what "anime" is, Secret Of Blue Water is the be-all and end-all of anime, let's use our amazing printing resources and budget to... reprint scripts we downloaded off Usenet. What a waste

When I owned my shop in the 90s Nadia was HUGELY popular. It was "the series" everyone had to see.

my recollection was that Nadia and Kimagure Orange Road were the only two shows that my local clubs had fansubbed in their entirety. i found that interesting. plenty of more shows got chalked off as the 90s progressed, of course.

ohhhh right, this sucker! i remember seeing it around back in the day.

it was popular all right. As you say, impossible to avoid. The Cal-Animage club published a 200+ page perfect-bound color cover book titled "Anime" that was mostly just scripts for Nadia TV episodes, because of course "anime" equals "Nadia", that was the attitude

Tetsuo Yajima, director of the Pokémon XY(Z) anime did an interview with AnimeStyle back in 2016. The interview's been translated piecemeal over the past decade. I had @cosmicmaria.bsky.social translate the whole thing. Now it lives on my site. #anipoke truthordeal.neocities.org/translations...

Hey there @terebifunhouse.bsky.social would you be able to elaborate on the history of fansubbing of Nadia in early 90s North America?

Apologies for the message from the future, @miketoole.com

First update in a while on the ASTRAY SCANS page, but I finally added the LD scans for LOVE & POP >>> astrayscans.blogspot.com/1998/11/ldv-...

Why do you guys dislike Fukui Gundam?

I never thought I'd live long enough to see Lilo & Stitch look like a Shin Megami Tensei timeline. video source: www.youtube.com/watch?v=osae...

Starting Mobile Suit Gundam (1995) for the Saturn w/ the fan translation!!! www.twitch.tv/pmctrilogy

It even brings up novel lore!

If there had been no in fighting with Neo Zeon in ZZ, effectively Neo Zeon would have maintained complete victory. Not "attained" rather they would have "maintained" because Haman's Neo Zeon were victorious (even for a short amount of time.)

The Victory Encyclopedia does make mention of the events of Stardust Memory. [From 機動戦士Vガンダム大事典 ]

My second set of dailies from a few weeks ago are finally archived on my Patreon, again with commentaries, as well as an IRL update.

Another example of production lore found within a CD booklet.

Saw @smudgebap.com's new video, about how video games/consoles are featured in popular media. There's a part about the what-if "Arcadia" console featured in the rebuild films. This is somewhat referencing the fictional console seen in FLCL. watch it here: www.youtube.com/watch?v=B7HI...

Even if one manages to produce the cels, It's much harder getting back those cameras/equipment that the photography studios used back then.

@ozkai.bsky.social got me watching this again: youtu.be/4CWVf86tVPQ

Some Angel The Big O studies as warm-up, based on her early design.

Well, it works

Just dropped a little post… about paint colors! www.gundampixel.com/blog/gaianot...

Also the “condemned to play with his toys” take that I see so often fails to consider that he’s old now and has had a very successful career and is now getting to do exactly what he wants (which is very similar to his earliest work but on a scale he only could’ve imagined in his youth)
