Gundam Unicorn Trailer Unleashes Unicorn in my Pants

Unicorns don't care if you believe in them any more than you care if they believe in you.




The unicorn has but one horn in the middle of its forehead. It is the only animal that ventures to attack the elephant; and so sharp is the nail of its foot, that with one blew it can rip the belly of that beast. Hunters can catch the unicorn only by placing a young virgin in its haunts. No sooner does he see the damsel, than he runs towards her, and lies down at her feet, and so suffers himself to be captured by the hunters. The unicorn represents Jesus Christ, who took on Him our nature in the virgin's womb, was betrayed to the Jews, and delivered into the hands of Pontius Pilate. Its one horn signifies the Gospel of Truth. It’s one horn signifies Gundam. I AM GUNDAM.
--Le Bestiaire Divin de Guillaume, Clerc de Normandic-- (Thirteenth Century)


I think it’s critical to note the importance of unicorns before you watch the trailer (not that any one of you read that long ass quote before watching it.) So when it comes down to it, Unicorns are beautiful, and so is this trailer. Welcome back to the Universal Century, and what a welcome it is. This OVA looks absolutely beautiful, so much so that I’m starting to become more Unicorn-like by each passing second.

So there are going to be six episodes, and each one will be 50 minutes long, which is great for an anime series. Not too long that it becomes drawn out, and not movie length so that it becomes a tease, a perfect length I have to admit. As William Shakespeare once said, “Now I believe that there are unicorns...”

Did anyone let Japan know that unicorns are only cool when Neil Patrick Harris rides them?

@John_Martone: Are you saying Neil Patrick Harris should pilot a Gundam?

the only way you see the word unicorn and cool in the same word is with the word "NOT" or the word "GUNDAM" with it

I hope that's what he's saying because that's an awesome idea.
