25 Comments

Celebrity Akina Minami, 19, showed up at an event recently in a Gundam costume to introduce TBS's new Gundam animation program “Gundam 000 Second Season.” Minami, said, “This costume was designed specially for me. I'm very happy to wear such an outfit because I don't have the chance to try this in my daily life.”

Comedian Teruyuki Tsuchida, 36, who is known to be a Gundam freak, was also on hand. "I came here today in my own clothes. I love Gundam more than porn movies. I'm not interested in women at all,” he said.

The program will be aired from Oct 5 on the TBS network.

"I came here today in my own clothes. I love Gundam more than porn movies. I’m not interested in women at all".

I think he was trying to be funny, but that joke is just so lame.

The sad thing is, Teruyuki wasn't joking at all. Einstein of the year award though.

Terayuki... ha ha haaaa. That's a great line. I totally dig his humour (in this instance). I didn't know Japanese comedians could be that funny. Porno movies... ha hah aaaa.

I agree with DBC here. Also, she has a cute bellybutton.

Why are their clothes Gundam costumes? They just look like normal, a little bit tacky but normal, clothes to me. I thought Gundam characters all wore big exoskeleton robot rocket tanks. The man's face is too wide, a sign of psychopathic aggression. That's probably why he isn't interested in women.

I do not understand Gundam and I do not want to understand Gundam. Macross was alot better when I watched it when i was a child. Voltron and Transformers was the best. Gundam is so popular here. Why?

After saying "I love Gundam" the "I'm not interested in women at all" is a given

Sorry, I guess I will be interested in women not Gundam. I wish i was the creator of Gundam. All that money and royalties sounds very nice.

I'd say Gundam Wing was the last best Gundam produced. Everything after that changed with child like adults that get on my nerves. The stories are not that great either. Stopped watching them after the first episode of Gundam Seed.

I think Akina Minami would look alot better in a cat outfit anyways (or at least a bunny outfit)...Gundam just donesn't show enough of her....I mean show enough of her talent.

I'll watch a few episodes to see how well the writers transformed that spoilt rich brat Louise into a stormtrooper pilot.

oh yeah and Patrick X)
