This month saw the premiere of “Mobile Suit Gundam: GQuuuuuuX“, the new film in the “Mobile Suit Gundam” which represents the preview of an upcoming anime series (it is a compilation of the first four episodes). This film, despite being a pre-release, achieved first position at the box office in its first weekend of screenings in Japan.with more than 352 thousand tickets sold.

The story centers on Amate Yuzuriha, a high school student who lives peacefully in a space colony floating in outer space. When she meets a war refugee named Nyaan, Amate finds herself drawn into the illegal sport of mobile suit dueling known as Clan Battle. Under the name “Machu”, he launches into fierce battle day after day, piloting the GQuuuuuuX.

Obviously the story has more plot twists behind it and surely the film remains an interesting cliffhanger that will continue in the next anime series. However, the second week of screenings had an even bigger surprise. Although we still do not have the exact box office figures, social networks in Japan went crazy when they discovered that the “Mobile Suit Gundam GQuuuuuuX -Beginning- DESING WORKS”, a book with designs for the project, included something quite curious.

This book was given as a visit benefit in the second week (generally, production companies release products that can be obtained by going to see the movie, changing the product every week to ensure that fans go to see the movie more than once), and includes the character designs in their many variants. Unfortunately there is still no way to see the movie outside of Japan, but the first pages of the book They immediately show the protagonist Amate Yuzuriha in her underwearperhaps the reason why so many returned to see the film.

This was demonstrated by the comments:

  • «The scene of Machu doing a handstand revealed that he was indeed in his underwear».
  • «The GQuuuuuuX design materials book they give as an entry buff immediately shows Machu in his underwear when you open it. This already looks like an ero doujin, doesn’t it?».
  • «I thought the power increase in Machu’s pilot suit only made it look bigger because of the thickness of the suit, but looking at the design of the underwear, it turns out that size is real».
  • «Should I go see GQuuuuuuX for the third time just to see Machu’s underwear?».
  • «It is uncomfortable that they insist so much on showing underwear and highlighting the chest unnecessarily.».
  • «They hold us hostage with the information about Machu’s panties».
  • «Isn’t this second benefit an essential item for fans who enjoy the work?».
  • «The design of Machu’s underwear confirms that he has a large chest. Why does he look smaller when he’s in uniform? Is it also the fault of the glowing particles?».
  • «That Matyu’s underwear is sporty, without any sensuality, was very good».
  • «Please, I beg you to put Matyu’s panties on sale in the cinema merchandising!».
