Try Turn A, -Z-. :-)

I'd be happy to see Gundam: The Origin animated with at least as much fidelity
as was Venus War Chronicle. Every time I rewatch Venus Wars or even Crusher
Joe, I keep thinking "Why couldn't they have done THAT with Gundam?"
On the other hand, I keep wondering what Dirty Pair would've been like had Yaz
done the artwork for the anime, like he did for the novels (and the
aforementioned Crusher Joe)...

Failing that, I'd like to see Gundam go completely realistic, like Planetes or
Patlabor or even Armitage III or Cowboy Bebop. Please note that "realistic"
doesn't mean grim and gritty and cynical, like Ghost in the Shell. Indeed,
leavening realistic portrayals with a spot of levity and outright humor is
almost a necessity given the underlying gravity of the overall theme.

Like Alfred Urrutia (welcome back!), I'm partial to Gundam 0080 and still
believe it to be the second best series after Z Gundam, which was my
introduction to the saga and thus will always have a special place in my memory.

And, like Chris Campbell, I don't consider swiping from Jane's All the World's
Firearms, Ships, Aircraft, etc. to be "realism" and much prefer the future to
look, well, futuristic, not just today's trendiness in fancy dress.
Yaz, at least, understood that, as witness his reciprocating gun barrels and
laser guns worn like ceremonial swords.

Alas, these days, the Future simply ain't what it used to be... (^_^);
