hmm..... I'm a 100% Chinese too =)
Just read the article, and I'm sad that Mr Tomino himself is no longer
interested in Gundam.

I overstated the number by 1, so you were counted :-). But I figure
there're many that can read Chinese here; it's just I can only tell Gus,
Doc & I by first-hand experience.

to
GML yet but only share with you who I know can read Chinese, here.

But this is an very interesting interview... It's some kind of
animation panel held in Beijing. Bandai/Sunrise's minders are
obviously not around and Tomino let loose a few comments that's "not
on message". The article's headline is "Tomino disappointed in
today's Gundam".
Babelfish does a less-than-passable job on the translation. (proof
that Chinese is harder than Japanese). For those who try: "rich wild"
is "Tomino" in kanji, "rich old" is sort of "old Mr. Tomino'" in
Chinese.
I may do an abbrevative translation when I get some free time.
His last comment was "I've lost interest in Gundam; on the other hand,
my supervision of Zeta movies is essentially a summary (of what Gundam
is about). So, (I) hope to prepare something new."
That's my point: it's a good article (more depth than other Tomino
interview in US or Japan) but there's no good English translation
available
yet; posting it in GML simply means only the 4 of us (figuratively
speaking)
would be discussing it and all other would wonder WTH we're talking
about.
Yes please Core go ahead with the translation! I think it's a good
discussion piece (but, yes, as usual it'd end up a bipolar "Tomino
dies" vs
"Tomino rocks"... let's see what'd happen). We'd owe you one.
