Do you think a Gundam series without a main character could work? Each episode is the perspective of a different person during the war or series of events that currently happening. It will be 20 episodes only.

Foundation had a interesting take on the O’Niell.

In ways not even salvageable. Though they are going to complete it by 2036, it will be nice to see the visuals.

4 next year may be good. They plan on doing flashbacks to the Machine War

Maybe it could follow a family. Dad is commander, Son is a guy who makes mobile suits, daughter is a pilot, other son is another pilot on the other side. see how each of their actions and the war echo out to each other. None is the main, but we have some stakes in what happens.

i thought gundamfags were retarded for shitting on the concept of newtypes and wanting gruntwank bullshit instead, which has been done at least twice and people consistently bitch about both examples (kou and shiro are basically grunts who find themselves in gundams by chance, and shiro pilots a glorified gm with a different head). now gundamfags are so genuinely retarded they think they can go against thousands of years of storytelling and not have a central protagonist. boy, i wonder why sunrise isn't calling you stupid cunts up and asking for your brilliant ideas considering ancient greeks figured out you need a protagonist to make a story good.

You'd have to structure it differently.
In a way it wouldn't really be a single story, but rather multiple stories happening in the same place, with a larger overarching plot that links them all together.
Perhaps you could do it like how the first volume of Kyoukai Senjou no Horizon did and basically its different characters' perspectives and what happened on their side when the grand plot around them is happening. Difficult, but it could work if you are able to link it all together.

IGLOO 2 did that already, but what I'd like to see is one where the Gundam IS the protagonist and it keeps getting passed around to different pilots, kind of like how it was with Wing Zero when it first showed up in the second half of the show.

Yes, but remember this is a story that takes place in 28750 AD
