Does Crunchyroll have all Gundam series?

Answered by Robert Dupre

Unfortunately, Crunchyroll does not have all the Gundam series available for streaming. While they do have a wide selection of Gundam series and movies, there are still some notable omissions from their catalog.

One series that is missing from Crunchyroll is Mobile Suit Gundam ZZ, which aired in 1986. This series is a direct sequel to the original Mobile Suit Gundam and follows the story of Judau Ashta as he becomes a pilot for the AEUG (Anti-Earth Union Group). Mobile Suit Gundam ZZ is an important installment in the Gundam franchise, as it bridges the gap between the original series and the subsequent sequels.

Another notable omission is the 1988 film Mobile Suit Gundam: Char’s Counterattack. This film serves as the culmination of the rivalry between the iconic characters Char Aznable and Amuro Ray. It is set in the Universal Century timeline and features intense mecha battles and a complex plot that delves into the themes of war and humanity.

Additionally, Crunchyroll does not currently have the 2010 movie Gundam Unicorn available for streaming. This film is set in the same Universal Century timeline as the original series and serves as a direct sequel to Char’s Counterattack. Gundam Unicorn follows the story of Banagher Links, a young man who becomes involved in a conflict over a powerful mobile suit called the Unicorn Gundam.

While Crunchyroll offers a decent selection of Gundam series, it is important to note that licensing agreements and availability can vary over time. It is possible that some of these missing series and films may become available in the future. In the meantime, fans of the Gundam franchise may need to explore other platforms or physical media to watch these specific titles.

Personally, as a Gundam fan, I have experienced the frustration of not being able to find certain series or movies on Crunchyroll. It can be disappointing when you want to continue watching a particular storyline or delve deeper into the Gundam universe, only to find that it is not available on your preferred streaming platform. This has led me to seek out alternative sources, such as purchasing DVDs or finding other streaming services that may have the missing content.

While Crunchyroll offers a good selection of Gundam series and movies, it does not have all of them available for streaming. Missing titles include Mobile Suit Gundam ZZ, Mobile Suit Gundam: Char’s Counterattack, and Gundam Unicorn. As a Gundam fan, it can be frustrating when your preferred streaming platform does not have all the content you desire, but there are other avenues to explore in order to watch these missing series and films.
