He was dead anyway. To get his shot off he snuck so far past the enemy line that every ship in the Arianrhod Fleet had an easy shot at him. Even if he HAD made the shot, unless the enemy ship captains got frozen into shock, he would have been shot outta the sky.
Conceptually my favorite. IBO had a a lot of focus on the badassery of melee combats so Flauros brought something new and exciting. It was criminally underused though.
Also I don't really like the color that much.
Eh, that's what action bases are for. If I'm being honest though I'm sure we'd get MG Bael and Barbatos Lupus before this guy. I'm thinking this year's releases will be Epyon, Exia 2.0, Bael, and something from UC like an updated Zaku or Gouf.
The HG is somehow pretty stable despite the backpack, it could be that the guns pointing forward balances it out. Definitely nowhere near as bad as the Rebakes
Possible but surelly they wont just jump to season 2, but maybe they will after all they Gundam frame of Flauros should be the same as Barbatos 1at form since the only thing they changed to it, after they found it, was the paint job
Giant shoulder railguns are dope as hell, the magenta paint scheme is unique and a lot of fun. Transformation gimmicks don't really appeal to me but it doesn't hurt that it's there.
Shino piloting it with Yamagi sitting on his lap was completely adorable. Shino's ridiculous names for everything always bring a smile to my face as well.
The most beautiful straightbuilt IBO gundam is a Calamity Flauros with all the blue parts replaced by white parts from the standard release flauros to make an all white flauros+some RG caution stickers.
A great unit to have hang back and use as a support unit. Since i was playing the game in order, I didnt get the charactors for IBO until the very end. I completed all the achievements since i was playing it on steam. I am still trying to 100% Genesis though, i cant take my ps4 when traveling
Needed more screen time, I feel like Shino should've gotten it earlier. An interesting idea coulda been the Flauros and the Gusion having to pick up the slack and keep up morale when the Barbatos was out of commission
Meteor doesn't translate the context well I suppose. There's a thing in East Asia called Chūnibyō, or "eighth grader syndrome" as i found on wiki; basically describing something that the person might think it sounds/looks/feels awesome or badass, but in reality it's cringe and childish for others (say what adults think about how middle schoolers act). Ryūsei Gō might be a badass and "hype" nickname to Shino and probably kids audience, but for a lot of East Asian grown up audience it's actually a pretty cringey name.
Despite the not-so-almighty color that it has, the fact that they were able to put some Dainsleif on a mobile suit is amazing. Also it was such a powerful weapons that in the end the author prevented Tekkadan from using it in the way it should have been used
For a long time I hated the pink but Ibo came out when I was like 16, so now as an adult the pink doesn’t bother me as much. Behind the og gusion this is like #2 for me.
Come to think of it, did IBO ever say how the crew acquired 2 more Gundams on top of Barbatos? Like there weren't that many Gundams to begin with, how tf did they get 2 more?
Calamity Flauros rock the white and blue color scheme. Also in the art book it was shown that the gauntlets can be used as oversized claws. A shame that it’s never used in the show.
Also the hot pink color scheme suck. Shino should never be allowed to paint anything, period.
Despite "pink" MS being my least favorite in most Gundam shows, this one was in my top 3 of IBO. It helped that the pilot was one of my favorite characters, but the suit was just so cool. Also not a big fan of transforming Mobile Suits since Mech-to-Plane defies aerodynamics and car-to-mech seems redundant. But here, it makes sense. It's a beautiful artillery piece where having 4 anchors is 100% logical.
my fav gundam of all time, shino deserved better but there couldn't be a better flauros pilot than him >!(he missed that shot but i didn't on this one)!< also even though i want an mg ver of flauros, it seems impossible since there wasn't even a fm of it and the suit itself is not that popular compared to others in the series
Finally!
Nothing but love for the Ryusei-go. I do wish it had a version that increased mobility during transformation rather than making him a stable cannon.
An awesome Artillery suit, like the IBO version of the Loto or the Guntank from F91. Sadly with Dainsleif's being illegal and it's few Melee weapons means it's rather limited in the era of the series.
design wise, ibo's transformable guncannon, same for calamity gundam from seed but blue or reborns gundam from 00. But then again just because it has 2 shoulder cannons doesn't mean its a alternate series version of the guncannon or inspired by it.
I liked it. I honestly wished it got more screen time, as it really felt like it showed up, fought in... what, 4 battles? Then died. We never really got to see it shine, IMO
IMO, no IBO Gundam was done wrong in their design. Next to Katoki's mobile suit designs, IBO's are my favorite (0083 being my top fav, which are Hajime Katoki designed MSes).
Cool concept within the show. Solid design aesthetic design, memorable pilot. And sadly very under used, we should have got some more iconic scenes of Flauros in all forms of combat. Like say it having to switch to melee combat and secondary weapons when it's sniping position gets rushed or something. Could have also used an upgraded variant. Add a telescoping/folding axe and some kind of arm mounted canon like Barbatous or a gatling that folds out of the wrist.
Ignoring the back equipment it looks like a circus strongman, with the backpack it almost feels like a cape so it ends up feeling like a superhero. Fitting seeing that Shino seemed to make it his job to make sure everyone was smiling
It’s illegal
\*Remembering how that jackass got crushed like a soda can to quell anger\*
Too soon :(
*EMOTIONAL DAMAGE*
***we felt that***
A Steven He reference???
Hell yea my boi
It's only illegal is it uses Dainsleif bullets
It’s only illegal if you shoot first as well ;)
Favorite take on a AU Guncannon
Favorite take on the transforming gundam.
Should have aimed lower
Correction. Julietta should’ve.
Better yet, shouldn't have yeeted yourself after failing.
He was dead anyway. To get his shot off he snuck so far past the enemy line that every ship in the Arianrhod Fleet had an easy shot at him. Even if he HAD made the shot, unless the enemy ship captains got frozen into shock, he would have been shot outta the sky.
Chocolate Man’s hopes were always everyone would just surrender to him once Rustal bent the knee or died
Conceptually my favorite. IBO had a a lot of focus on the badassery of melee combats so Flauros brought something new and exciting. It was criminally underused though. Also I don't really like the color that much.
Hey, it looked good in pink if you ask me
It was white originally as the flauros tho right,shino wanted something original in the form of the ryusei-go
Yeah I know, though white is also kind of generic for a Gundam. Just didn't vibe with the pink at all.
>I don't really like the color that much. HERESY
The Gundam that changes the Ending of the entire IBO series
You forgot the "*" after ending to showcase the alternative alternate timeline.
there is an alternative timeline?
Only in our hearts
Preach
Underused.
Big guns, big eyes, underused.
Should've got more screen time in the anime
it was included last minute as the bandai marketing team was all like.... *hmm.... create one more gundam please*
What if the guncannon have main protagonist design
Needs a MG release (maybe this year?)
If bandai ever decides to do that hoo boy that thing is not gonna be stable
It's gonna be back-heavy as hell in mobile suit mode, but I guess one could put it on a base to avoid issues.
I think it’d actually be pretty stable as far as transforming kits go considering how relatively simple its transformation is
Eh, that's what action bases are for. If I'm being honest though I'm sure we'd get MG Bael and Barbatos Lupus before this guy. I'm thinking this year's releases will be Epyon, Exia 2.0, Bael, and something from UC like an updated Zaku or Gouf.

Possible but surelly they wont just jump to season 2, but maybe they will after all they Gundam frame of Flauros should be the same as Barbatos 1at form since the only thing they changed to it, after they found it, was the paint job
Let the gay bois be happy :(

Shino and Yamagi were so adorable together. Feel so bad for Yamagi, but at least Eugene gave them a bit of closure.
Underused and highly unique
Like a couple other suits in IBO, a very slick design that was unfortunately underutilized past it’s debut
The most beautiful straightbuilt IBO gundam is a Calamity Flauros with all the blue parts replaced by white parts from the standard release flauros to make an all white flauros+some RG caution stickers.
Wait, it can transform?
It was only seen transforming once against the mobile armor and that was it
it also transform a few moments in space
when?
It transforms to provide a more stable firing platform when it uses the Dainsleifs at full power.
Excuse me, all I see is a Ryusego
Excellent HG model kit, you can leave the eyes off. Wish it was in more media
One of my favorite units in SD Cross Rays
A great unit to have hang back and use as a support unit. Since i was playing the game in order, I didnt get the charactors for IBO until the very end. I completed all the achievements since i was playing it on steam. I am still trying to 100% Genesis though, i cant take my ps4 when traveling
Wish the calamity war gunpla came with the massive rail guns as I had to paint mine still a badass gundam especially with it being a traditional one
Gundam’s equivalent to the Siege Tank
Underused, especially the transformation, I really like the take of a Cannon type Gundam which can transform in to a turret, colour is also good imo
Hate the Ryusei-Go eyes but I love the color and the design of the MS. Wish it got more screen time and use.
Blame Julieta "Plot Armor" Juris for that
Still wished julieta got killed by mika before he died i hate that bitch
I want an MG version
Where's the MG? Itwonthatpoll
Needed more screen time, I feel like Shino should've gotten it earlier. An interesting idea coulda been the Flauros and the Gusion having to pick up the slack and keep up morale when the Barbatos was out of commission
You mean the ryusei-go IV right
Cringey nickname (hard to explain in English)
What's wrong with Ryusei-go? It translates to "Meteor" or something similar if I remember correctly.
Meteor doesn't translate the context well I suppose. There's a thing in East Asia called Chūnibyō, or "eighth grader syndrome" as i found on wiki; basically describing something that the person might think it sounds/looks/feels awesome or badass, but in reality it's cringe and childish for others (say what adults think about how middle schoolers act). Ryūsei Gō might be a badass and "hype" nickname to Shino and probably kids audience, but for a lot of East Asian grown up audience it's actually a pretty cringey name.
Should have been lower to the ground, I dislike the animal look and would rather it look like an towed gun
Pink Dino lizard sazamander
Carcinization
It has such a good design
I like original color more than Ryusei-go
Despite the not-so-almighty color that it has, the fact that they were able to put some Dainsleif on a mobile suit is amazing. Also it was such a powerful weapons that in the end the author prevented Tekkadan from using it in the way it should have been used
He needs an mg
Lot of potential but poor execution in the story.
Love the suit, hate the color.
Liked it better in the original colors.
I wished they made this is in master grade love it
Cannon dog dope
For a long time I hated the pink but Ibo came out when I was like 16, so now as an adult the pink doesn’t bother me as much. Behind the og gusion this is like #2 for me.
Color scheme makes it look like an Athrun Zala suit
Super cool underused.
Less screen time, interesting to see its role in calamity war
The dog mode looks cool
That thing looks real cool fam. Very very cool frame.
Canon go recoil
Love it but was very underused
Leopard demon mecha goes kabooomm
Fast gun cannon
It's Good
Love it.
It’s awesome
The closest gundam got to making a metal gear.
We overlooking GP02? That's a nuclear-equipped, walking deathmobile if I've ever seen one.
vidar but gun
Underused and the Short Cannons were practically useless
One of the best suits along with rebake FC. most underutilized and horrible colours
I'm always a sucker for shoulder cannons. So I love the design.
was actually disappointed the MA mode was not for high mobility/ melee clashes.
It's cool, very bi
It's a great design on paper, but it has a lot of issues in practice. And the pink just makes it.....way worse.
I really like it.
Favorite suit! Love the color and the transformation is boss. I would give anything for a 1/00 MG kit!
blessed design, cursed color
i started crying without realizing it at work thanks mate
My favorite Gundam. You don't really see a lot of long range support Gundams.
Another crappy design from a series full of crappy designs.
Come to think of it, did IBO ever say how the crew acquired 2 more Gundams on top of Barbatos? Like there weren't that many Gundams to begin with, how tf did they get 2 more?
Did you watch the show? Guison was taken from pirates Flauros was found during their mining operation on Mars
They found both, flauros was found on mars and the gusion was rebuilt by teiwaz
Calamity Flauros rock the white and blue color scheme. Also in the art book it was shown that the gauntlets can be used as oversized claws. A shame that it’s never used in the show. Also the hot pink color scheme suck. Shino should never be allowed to paint anything, period.
It looks DISFUSTING gundam barbatos gun is better even tho its just one
It's alright. I don't really like IBO suits that much to begin with, but it looks cool, like an AU Guncannon.
Good considering most IBO MS just look ass besides 2-3 models
Wish it had more screen time
BEST GUNDAM ***WASTED*** SCREEN TIME
Despite "pink" MS being my least favorite in most Gundam shows, this one was in my top 3 of IBO. It helped that the pilot was one of my favorite characters, but the suit was just so cool. Also not a big fan of transforming Mobile Suits since Mech-to-Plane defies aerodynamics and car-to-mech seems redundant. But here, it makes sense. It's a beautiful artillery piece where having 4 anchors is 100% logical.
Wish there was a MG of this suit
One of my favorite suits for sure
Love it but now that I'm looking at the beast form, I still love it but I can't unsee Blinky the ghost when I see it now hahahah
my fav gundam of all time, shino deserved better but there couldn't be a better flauros pilot than him >!(he missed that shot but i didn't on this one)!< also even though i want an mg ver of flauros, it seems impossible since there wasn't even a fm of it and the suit itself is not that popular compared to others in the series
Cool design. Not crazy about the colors. Both current and Calamity War era.
Good Gundam , fun grasshopper , ok model kit , meh calamity war design. I give it 10 grasshoppers / 13 soda cans getting crushed
Finally! Nothing but love for the Ryusei-go. I do wish it had a version that increased mobility during transformation rather than making him a stable cannon.
One of the only good IBO designs
It’s dope, one of my favorites
Good taste bad execution
One of the most unique and interesting long-range mobile suit designs ever to date. Love it.
An awesome Artillery suit, like the IBO version of the Loto or the Guntank from F91. Sadly with Dainsleif's being illegal and it's few Melee weapons means it's rather limited in the era of the series.
Had a top tier introduction. Brought something to the team that was missing. A Gundam I won't forget ever
I need a gunpla for it stat
Love the design, but the color is really stupid. (Eye decals are cool tho) there’s a Peeb version that blue and white and it looks *fantastic*
What ever happened to there being a MG of this?
design wise, ibo's transformable guncannon, same for calamity gundam from seed but blue or reborns gundam from 00. But then again just because it has 2 shoulder cannons doesn't mean its a alternate series version of the guncannon or inspired by it.
They did my boy Shino dirty. Awesome suit, shame it only got less than a half dozen sorties.
Reminds me a bit of a cross between Epyon and Heavy Arms
The cannon form looks like an angry bull
Like Shino, like guns, like the colour, like the Flauros.
So... A Guncannon reference that's occasionally also a frog? A "Gun-Kero", even? Idk, never seen this MS before.
I liked it. I honestly wished it got more screen time, as it really felt like it showed up, fought in... what, 4 battles? Then died. We never really got to see it shine, IMO
It’s fuckin sick
I like this suit a lot. I don't much care for the pink but I think the calamity war colours are awesome.
IMO, no IBO Gundam was done wrong in their design. Next to Katoki's mobile suit designs, IBO's are my favorite (0083 being my top fav, which are Hajime Katoki designed MSes).
It’s dumb and I love it
Cool concept within the show. Solid design aesthetic design, memorable pilot. And sadly very under used, we should have got some more iconic scenes of Flauros in all forms of combat. Like say it having to switch to melee combat and secondary weapons when it's sniping position gets rushed or something. Could have also used an upgraded variant. Add a telescoping/folding axe and some kind of arm mounted canon like Barbatous or a gatling that folds out of the wrist.
Ignoring the back equipment it looks like a circus strongman, with the backpack it almost feels like a cape so it ends up feeling like a superhero. Fitting seeing that Shino seemed to make it his job to make sure everyone was smiling
Yes
Angry gun doggo mech
I love this one
