First Impressions / Gundam

Gundam 00 Series 2 – CM3

 

Another new Gundam 00 commercial aired after today’s episode of CODE GEASS R2. This one is accompanied by a new Ishikawa Chiaki song titled Prototype, and it features Lockon, Sumeragi, Louise looking like she’s going to throw up, Felt, a short-haired (and rather plain/boring looking) Saji, and a creepy shot of a damaged Exia in battle. It’s interesting stuff, but I liked the fast-paced commercial that debuted three weeks ago a bit more. Of course, that probably has as much to do with the songs accompanying these commercials as anything else, and I definitely prefer the UVERworld one. I would guess that that’s going to be the new OP whereas Prototype will likely be the new ED.
