That's actually quite an interesting idea, though it might focus too much on
the tournament aspect which even Imagawa didn't really care for. Maybe some
new villain? I know the one off G Gundam manga sequel had Domon and his
apprentice dealing with terrorists who had stolen the last remaining DG
Cells.

working through his issues with his father, and once he'd done that he
just closed the book and moved on.
In the same way, G and W may end up in a higher place in my heart than
UC. Normally I would never even put G/W and First Gundam in the same
sentence, but each new sequel (Unicorn), game (Target in Sight) and
model line (AoZ) erode just a little bit more off First Gundam. For
Wing, the Gundams were shot into the Sun and we will never see another
Gundam again. For G, well technically a sequel is possible, but it's
guaranteed to be dog-puke so let's hope we will never see the day.
Heheh. I liked G a lot, actually. It was very stylized, but it still held
true to many of Gundam's central themes, and it expanded on them a bit
with a few of its own. It *definitely* doesn't need a sequel, but I mostly
thought that about SEED as well (and in all honesty, I thought it about
First Gundam as well; I liked Zeta and even CCA, and I've heard good
things about Victory, but I really don't see the point. But on the upside,
at least the sequels after CCA had the decency to use different
characters. That takes a lot of the sting out of the whole retread of old
ideas bit).
A G-gundam sequel should be in the form of a video game, letting you fight
in the 14th Gundam fight. The G universe is ideally suited to a video game.
If Bandai-Namco actually put some work into it, they could have a nice
milkable franchise. Every year of so they could release a new version, 15th
G fight, 16th, etc. with a new roster of MS, kind of like the Madden
version of Gundam.
