The official Twitter account for the series released a new illustration of the main Gundam along with asking fans to patiently await news of a continuation for the series.

As for the new continuation project, there is no other information at the time for the series ahead, but at least fans now have confirmation that a sequel will happen. In terms of what it can be, some fans want the new project to adapt the Calamity War events, but some just want it to continue on from the second season of the series.

Regardless of whether the new project is an OVA, film, manga or new series, fans will be there to support it as Iron-Blooded Orphans was one of the more fan-favorite versions of the series in some time.

Mobile Suit Gundam: Iron-Blooded Orphans is currently available for streaming on Crunchyroll as is described as such:

The Earth Sphere had lost its previous governing structure, and a new world was created under new systems of government. While a temporary peace had arrived, the seeds of a new conflict were being sown in the Mars Sphere, far away from Earth.

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.

The newest anime project, Mobile Suit Gundam Narrative, is part of the “UC NexT 0100 Project,” which will tackle the events of the Universal Century storyline following the likes of the original Mobile Suit Gundam series and Mobile Suit Gundam Unicorn. This anime project is currently scheduled for a release in Japanese theaters later this year.

Sunrise is also co-producing a live-action Mobile Suit Gundam film with Legendary Pictures, but unfortunately there are no other details about its story, staff, or release at this time.
