Gundam: Creator will talk about the future of space at Event

Yoshiyuki Tomino , the legendary Creator of Mobile Suit Gundam , will attend a real event about the future of space exploration. When he launched the franchise in the late 1970s, he certainly did not imagine that his work would become a global icon, crossing decades, launching new series and generating a multitude of products.

Currently, Tomino has been invited to a special lecture that will take place on July 8, in Japan, during the Space Business Conference 2025 , organized by Spacetide Foundation. The panel proposes an exciting reflection: Will it be possible to build an “ideal space society” or will humanity repeat the errors made by the Federation of Earth and the Principality of Zeon?

Reflections on science fiction and reality

As released by the organization, Tomino will discuss how to advance towards space without compromising the survival of the earth. In addition, it will reflect on how close we are from the futuristic vision he presented almost fifty years ago. Inevitably, the panel will also address the current advance in the marketing of space, which develops rapidly.

According to the statement, this will be a unique opportunity to connect science fiction with current reality. After all, Gundam remains one of Japan's greatest science fiction works, bringing alerts and hopes for the future of humanity in space.

Since 2015, Spacetide has promoted pioneering conferences in Japan, even before the term “commercial space” is popularized in the country. Surprisingly, these initiatives have boosted the private space industry, which now moves billionaire investments globally.

However, although the advances are remarkable, Spacetide states that spatial exploration has not yet unlocked all its true potential. Therefore, this year's event, which marks the 10th anniversary of the conference, brings the motto: "The next decade: unlocking space for all humanity."

Meanwhile, in the fictional universe of Gundam, the narrative gained new directions with Gundam Gquuuuuux . Under the direction of Hideaki Anno (Evangelion), the plot proposes an alternative reality in which Char Aznable and his allies won the war against the Earth Federation, radically altering the destiny of the universal century.

However, this new approach impactfully recalls one of the franchise's greatest conflicts, which many still consider one of the best wars in anime history.
