Ghost suspended above the height of nostalgia to “Gundam GQuuuuUUX”

The last episode to Gundam GQUUUUUUX She asks her characters, new generations and reshape the familiar faces alike, to imagine new capabilities and future contracts for themselves free of ideas and history in place. Gandam The offers that came in front of them. But while doing this, one nostalgia is presented gquuuuuux She has not been able to give up this past in a unique way.

The twelfth and last episode of Gundam GQUUUUUUX It was largely built on the revelation that its entire preparation is, which is a re -imagined vision GandamThe preparation of the World Century, was made through a copy of Newtype Lalah Sun From a fact in which she was saved from death in a battle against Gundam through sacrifice Its copy of Char AznableSo he sent it to a broken despair, where I searched mentally about the time tables that tried to imagine the possibility of the location of Charred.

Indeed, in itself, imagine an alternative to similar events in the anime in the original 1979, where Lalah perish in The Gundam and Pilot Amuro Ray, this information is transferred to the audience and gquuuuuuxThe young Machu hero is both by Psionic Flashback in a modern but retrospective recreational form of the viewer from episode 41 of the original show, “Glow Cody”. With the recreation of the battle of Char, Amuro and Lalah, familiar voices are filled with roles: Char and Lalah are expressed again by their original representatives from Gundam mobile suitShuichi Iteda and Keiko Han, respectively, but Amuro left strangely silent. (In the enjoyable development of The English Language Dub, Keith Silverstein and LIPICA Shah, who expressed Char and Lalah in its adaptation Gundam: OriginalBriefly restores their roles for this sequence.)

This, even later at the height of the episode, where Tōru Furuya – who played Amuro across anime, movies, games and more 46 years ago – played his role again. It is a unique line of dialogue, and it works as a spiritual voice for Gundam GQuuuuUUUX to express her desire not to see Lalah suffers more than that. But regardless, it is a new material from the original Amuro Ray. At one point, this may have been a victor Gandam Fans.

In May 2024, in an interview with the Japanese tabloid Shokan PonchonForeouia (who was 70 years old at the time) revealed that he had participated in an external relationship for four and a half years with a woman for nearly 40 years of his young. In the same interview, he also admitted to entering a physical argument with a woman, as well as pressure on her to end the pregnancy during her relationship.

The scandal reaction in Japan was immediate. Furuya may be one of the most famous voice actors in the country, known for his role not only as amuro, but also as well as as Moon seasEvening mask, DragonYamisha, Sabo in one piecePegasus Seiya in Saint SiaiaRi Foreouia in Detective ConanAnd many other roles in a profession that spanned nearly six decades of work. Within a month of issuing the interview and the general apology of Furuya on Twitter (which contains Since it has been closedThe actor was dropped from a role in the next ATLUS RPG at the time metaphor Reply: Fantasioand Foreouia announced He will step down from his roles in one piece and Detective Conan. Later in the same year, TOEI announced that Ryōta Suzuki will replace Furuya in the name of Yamcha In Dragon Ball: Daima.

But Bandai Namco, Malik Gandam Sunrise Studio, he remained calm about whether a Furoya will continue to express Amiro Ray, as it was across dozens of Gandam He works. In June 2024, the company sent a statement to Yahoo Japan Miko Kawamura He said that the company was “carefully considering to deal with (the situation around Furua),” which refuses to comment more. In October of that year, Bandai announced Foreouia will restore his role as Amero, along with Sher Ikeeda again in Gundam alc meetingA short movie that is broadcast as a special drop on the wall before Nu Gundam’s normal size statue In Fukuka.

gquuuuuux It was under development for several years before the emergence of the Furuya scandal – surpassed the series, in cooperation with Evangelion Khara Studio, started as Early 2018Maybe even before the Furuya relationship started. It is more difficult to know if any part of the series has been rewritten to move the focus away from the emergence of Amuro in any characteristic: the character is absent from the frank gquuuuuuxRemix for origins Gandam It has never been called when the character’s hints are made, and it is only indicated in passing it as a pilot of the mobile white union’s suit, while gquuuuuux Instead focuses on Char and Lalah as an old essential characters. And again, even when Amuro naturally had a dialogue in the final entertainment of “cosmic glow” events along with the return of Iteda and Han as Char and Lalah, the character is silent. But it is publicly known for the development of the series at this stage, we cannot categorically say whether these intended creative options or the necessary necessities of trying to move away from Furuya.

But if they are the last, it will not make sense to restore Furuya to provide one line of dialogue anyway. New versions of Char and Lalah in gquuuuuux I prepare new actors instead of Eikida and Han, and with the Freua scandal months ago gquuuuuux king It was announced publiclyThere was time between her and the broadcast of the last episode to deliver an alternative actor, even if it was necessary to be similar to communicating with the masses, contact Amuro and the original Gandam. Was this link to the point that there was no other option?

Instead it seems that, unlike other studios, Bandai was not simply unwilling to give up Gandam After – though gquuuuuux“He possesses objective messages about the need to move forward and imagine new possibilities for the last and future series, leaving a conflicting mark on an aspirational end otherwise.
