But where can you watch the series? We’ve got you covered!

Here are the places you can watch and keep up with Gundam Build Divers:

  • Crunchyroll – There is a monthly subscription fee to watch episode the day of release, but they also offer a free option to fans who don’t mind waiting a week after initial release to watch a new episode.
  • Gundam.info – The official Mobile Suit Gundam portal premiered the first episode of the series, but it is unconfirmed whether or not the series will continue streaming in this location
  • YouTube – A completely free option is available on Gundam.info’s YouTube page and is available with subtitles in English, Taiwanese, French, Korean, and Italian

Gundam.info describes Gundam Build Divers as such:

“Gunpla Battle Nexus Online (GBN) is a new network game that lets people enjoy a variety of missions using Gunpla in a virtual cyberspace dimension. Middle-school students Riku Mikami and Yukio Hidaka recruit their classmate Momoka Yashiro and dive together into this vast world. Becoming “Divers,” or inhabitants of GBN, they meet a mysterious girl named Sarah who has an amazing sensitivity to Gunpla. They begin playing alongside her, but…

Through many encounters and experiences, Riku and his friends will build not only Gunpla, but their own adventures as well!”

One Mobile Suit Gundam fan even calculated what kind of power the mechas would yield in real life. Taking one of the most oft-ignored mechs in the series, that fans wouldn’t consider too powerful, they calculated an incredible range that would surely do damage in the real world.

Financial magazine Weekly Toyo Keizai commissioned the 70 year old character designer for Mobile Suit Gundam, Yoshikazu Yasuhiko, to draw their cover for their 2018 financial forecast issue.The cover depicts President of the United States Donald Trump partying for the new year with Russian President Vladimir Putin, Chinese President Xi Jinping, and Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe. The most damning, however, is the depiction of North Korean dictator Kim Jong-un, who sits on top of a nuclear missile in-between all of them.
