Well, having embarrassingly only watched Build Fighters, IBO and a bit of the (New) Unicorn (so yeah, basically the only really recent ones, you can smirk and giggle), I'm pretty happy with 8 but at least this quiz has got me motivated to start the task of going through the franchise.

This was pretty easy for those of us who watch Gundam. Though when I had even a little doubt (haven't seen couple of them yet) the styles gave it away like someone else mentioned...

Don't worry about it, I watched a few of the ones set in the Alternate Universes up until just last year when I desperately wanted to watch Unicorn and didn't understand anything.

And now... somehow I'm waaay too into Gundam but yeah it's never too late to catch up if you want to.

What helped was that most of the series have a distinct style of there creation era, the only thing that might have tripped up a viewer is if they choices were of more secondary characters with multiple choices in the same era.

G-Saviour need a remake in Anime Format based on the light novel which is better than the live movie script

Honestly, Sunrise should just go whole hog with G-Saviour & remake all of it. The Drama CD prequels, the movie story, & the PS2 game sequel. Could likely be done as a 12/13-episode OVA, even.

They're too busy milking the already emaciated OYW era to bother. Late UC is not as much of a moneymaker compared to that. They would've animated Crossbone Gundam already.

Anyways, yeah this one was really easy that even the most casual can get a good score. Would've been harder if it featured the MS's they pilot considering MC Gundams commonly share the same frame and color scheme.

Funny how looking at art style, picture quality and series names listed alongside the characters' names could help me to get a hundred percent on this quiz. For added context, I only have a passing familiarity with Gundam and have only watched the 0079 movies.

It looks like the family restaurant Wagnaria!! from the manga and anime series Working!! is still successful in the not-so-distant future. Fans are wondering if Sword Art Online and Working!! exist in the same universe or if the reference is merely a little joke since both anime series share the same character designer, Shingo Adachi.

Not sure why I took this as I've never seen any Gundam. Got 9 right out of dumb luck.

I got 12 of them right, mostly because I haven't seen every single Gundam series, yet anyway, I want to change that this year.

I'm currently rewatching the original Mobile Suit Gundam and I'm just gonna continue from there.

The quiz isn't showing up for me. The page is empty except for the article title and links. Is it already closed?
