Got a couple of questions.....
Why does tomino hate gundam? He say's that he would never work oon anything gundam ever again.

And will we ever get another uc timeline anime?

Tomino's livened up in recent years, something Turn A helped with. In the early 90's, he hated Gundam because it was pretty much all he was allowed to do. He'd tried to kill it off several times (CCA, Victory. Some even say he had a hand in early G Gundam to try and make it so stupid that it would fail) but it was still popular. Nowadays, he's mentioned he looks forward to getting to do another series at some point.

Most likely. Apparently one was on the cards for next year, but the plan now looks scrapped. Bandai knows too well the core fanbase love UC.

I believe the next Gundam series is supposed to be something that will appeal to UC fans, whatever that means. As for Tomino, as HellCat said he wants to do another one.

Interestingly, when he was in Houston he said that out of all the Gundam shows he's been involved in he dislikes V Gundam the most. I wonder why?

I'll field that question.

Tomino was in a major depression when he wrote V Gundam. The endless gloom combined with his state at the time created some really bad memories.

I loved it, though.
