It appears that Netflix is getting lots of Gundam content, including getting the recap movie trilogy of the original series and Char's Counterattack (which will be streaming for the first time in a really long time, if not the first time it's ever streamed. Biggest of all, Gundam Hathaway just streamed. I'll probably give my thoughts when I have the free time to see it. I think this one requires even more homework than most universal century stuff, but at least the Char's Counterattack movie is provided for some help. Crunchyroll still has the bulk of classic Gundam series, so Netflix doesn't have a monopoly on the franchise. Will Netflix get the next major Gundam series whenever it comes out (aside from tv cuts of the Unicorn and Origin OVAs, we've only gotten the "silly" Gundams for the last half decade. Surely the next serious Gundam installment is due to come out. Either that or Gundam has switched to a "silly TV series (Build Fighters, SD Gundam), serious movie and OVA" release model. Will Gundam be a significant hit for Netflix?
