Interview Yoshiyuki Tomino- the legendary father of the Mobile Suit Gundam Cosplay series
Posted By admin on September 28, 2009
The New York Anime Festival was a proud host to Yoshiyuki Tomino, the legendary father of the Mobile Suit Gundam cosplay series. Beginning with a highlight reel of his many hit series, starting with Triton of the Sea and continuing through with titles like Aura Battler Dunbine, Heavy Metal L-GAIM, Overman King-Gainer, The Wings of Rean, several anime cosplays from the Ideon series, and, of course, the many Mobile Suit Gundam series. The panel began with 2 questions from Anime News Network’s call for questions, but then began to take questions from the audience, with Tomino-san often seasoning his answers with a self-deprecating sense of humor.
By ways of interview, Yoshiyuki Tomino thought he did’t have a lot of interest in pursuing a live-action adaptation of that work or any other right now, although I am slightly interested in the possibility of producing something that is anime-esque live-action or live-action-esque anime, but again, nothing concrete.
