Gundam is a series of science fiction media produced by Sunrise, revolving around giant robots known as giant robots (mecha). This product line is often perceived as being for men, providing endless passion for many.
This product line began on April 7, 1979, with the film Mobile Suit Gundam, which, along with various spin-offs, created a franchise that includes TV shows, OVAs, films, comics, novels, and video games. Along with that is an entire industry of model kits, known as Gunpla. Gunpla accounts for 90% of the character model market. (Source: Wikipedia).

First aired in 1979 and becoming a phenomenon in Japan, “Mobile Suit Gundam” (original title: “Kidou Senshi Gundam”) is one of the longest-running and most popular anime franchises to this day, boasting over a dozen TV series, feature films, OVAs, and various other media. With numerous storylines branching into distinct timelines or universes, it poses significant challenges for newcomers to start following.

Recently, a Japanese female YouTuber went viral after deciding to embrace her passion for Gundam. Modestly, the female YouTuber admits she is just a “novice” in this model-building scene. However, this did not matter to viewers as many compliments were directed not just at the Gundam models but also towards the beauty of this female YouTuber.
In just two months since her channel was established, this female YouTuber has gained 46,800 subscribers, with an average video view count between 70,000 and 80,000. This is indeed a significant number for a female YouTuber just starting out in her passion for Gundam. Hopefully, in the future, this beautiful girl will gain even more fans to motivate her to create higher-quality clips.
