"New Anime from Evangelion Team: How to Watch Mobile Suit Gundam: GQuuuuuuX"

The long-awaited Mobile Suit Gundam: GQuuuuuuX has finally arrived for North American audiences, bringing with it a fresh "alternate history" storyline and a name that's a tongue-twister—allegedly pronounced "G-Queue-x". This new installment in the Gundam universe also introduces a range of new model kits. IGN's Juan Barquin praised the theatrical release, describing GQuuuuuuX as "exactly the kind of inventive reimagining of Gundam we deserve."

The series showcases the influence of another iconic sci-fi franchise in its credits. Directed by Kazuya Tsurumaki, who co-directed End of Evangelion, and written by Yoji Enokido—known for classics like FLCL, Revolutionary Girl Utena, Ouran High School Host Club, and Bungo Stray Dogs, as well as episodes of Neon Genesis Evangelion—alongside the creator of Evangelion, Hideaki Anno, GQuuuuuuX promises an exciting narrative journey.

For fans eager to dive into the series, here's everything you need to know about watching Mobile Suit Gundam: GQuuuuuuX and catching up on the original Gundam series.
