The father of Gundam posted a message saying that he did not regret making the reverse A Gundam, implying that he did not compromise with the sponsors at that time

The father of Gundam, Mr. Tomino, posted a message today on August 18, mentioning the still controversial "Mobile Suit Gundam ∀", saying that he did not regret making the Reverse A Gundam (the setting was criticized for being anti-human), and also hinted that he did not compromise with the sponsors that year. The birth of the Reverse A Gundam may have originated from the old man's "stubbornness" back then.

· Mobile Suit Gundam∀ is a "special" Gundam animation produced by SUNRISE to commemorate the 20th anniversary of Gundam (1999). It is special because the story outline is different from previous Gundam animations. There are no New Types, and there is no fighting for the sake of fighting.

In addition, the ∀ Gundam has an American design, so its appearance is completely different from other series of Gundams, for example, the horns grow on the mouth, like a mustache, the cockpit is in the middle of the waist, and the cockpit is controlled by the driving suit, etc. These "innovations" angered many hardcore Gundam fans, and there are still constant disputes.

· Mr. Tomino posted a message on August 18th, mentioning this "special" work, saying: No matter what, I don't regret making "Mobile Suit Gundam ∀", it's better to say that it's much better than thinking about the industry rules that everything was done according to the sponsor when making V Gundam. I really remember that I was almost killed by the (industry) system that prioritized sponsors.

· Judging from the words written by the old man, it is obvious that the sponsors at that time were extremely opposed to the various anti-human settings of "Mobile Suit Gundam ∀". However, perhaps Mr. Tomino made "Mobile Suit Gundam ∀" a reality in a fit of rage in order to save face. As for whether this work is better or worse, it depends on the personal preferences of the fans.
