‘Gundam GQuuuuuuX' Gets A Fun Little Exhibition In Tokyo
A new 'Gundam GQuuuuuuX' exhibition opens today in Tokyo. What with Gundam GQuuuuuuX well under way, the anime has now been given a nice little exhibition in Ikebukuro, Tokyo. Housed within the Anime Tokyo Station, the exhibition is fairly small but also quite comprehensive. Covering the initial movie Beginning, as well as the subsequent TV series (as the movie is built from those elements), the exhibition breaks down its focus across the characters and mecha quite nicely. There are also multi-lingual notes placed around the exhibition as well. You also have mockup spaces of certain events from the anime, as well as the 'kira kira' effect for what the Newtypes now see. There's also a small AR area, which is also a nice touch. As always, I love the rendering of the characters from anime done at full scale. You always have the respective heights of each of the characters worked out, so it's nice to see that followed through with full-size cutouts (shown below). Nyann (left), Machu (center) and Shuji (right) rendered at full scale. The mecha side of things was fairly brief, and while I am still not really enjoying these new mecha designs, they do need to be included in an exhibition like this. I still feel that they are over-designed, especially the main Gundams, but I'm hoping I will eventually come around to at least tolerating them once the series is done. In addition to all this, there was a nice video of a discussion between the members of the anime's production. Again, I always think these are helpful in showing that making anime is very much a group effort. The final highlight was all the merchandise at the end, with lots of plushies and badges. Although this time I managed to abstain, I came very close to picking a few up. Gundam GQuuuuuuX Special Exhibition opens today at Anime Tokyo Station in Ikebukuro and closes on August 11. Entry is free. Gundam GQuuuuuuX Exhibition Gundam GQuuuuuuX Special Exhibition Gallery Location: Anime Tokyo Station Duration: May 24 - August 11 Entrance: Free Follow me on X, Facebook and YouTube.
