BB Senshi Sangokuden (BB戦士 三国伝, BB Warrior Romance Of The Three Kingdoms) is the SD Gundam series for 2007 and the 18th work in the Musha Gundam series. The story and characters are modeled after those featured in the classic Chinese literature, Romance of the Three Kingdoms. However, certain story elements, as well as the names of the Three Kingdoms themselves, are fictionalized.

So far three chapters have come under the title, namely Fuuun Gouketsu Hen, Eiyuu Gekitotsu Hen and Senjin Kettou Hen.

Outline

"BB Senshi" 20th anniversary commemorative work. A SD Gundam work with the motif of "Romance of the Three Kingdoms". The various mobile suits become "actors"(演者) to take on the roles of various characters of the Chinese literature, this further emphasize Sangokuden as "a performance of Romance of the Three Kingdoms by the SD Gundams". The usual name "頑駄無"(Gundam) used in the "Sengokuden" series has been replaced with the katakana "ガンダム"(Gundam). The warring states world view closely resembles that of the "Sengokuden" series. Certain aspects of the "actors" taking on the roles resemble the mobile suits they were originally based on.

In "Mirisha", the stage of "Sangokuden", there exist 130 scrolls of historical text. In the current time they are called "G Chronicle (G記)". It reveals that "Mirisha" was the country "Abram" (from the "Sengokuden" series) in the past and the first emperor is "Hakuryuu Taitei" from Shin SD Sengokuden Densetsu no Daishougun Hen however this crossover was not explained in the main story. (Therefore it could probably mean this is another "Abram" of a parallel world like that of Musharetsuden)[1]

The series was announced to be released in a number of territories, including Japan, Korea, America and Australia.[1]. However, as of 2009 only releases in Asian regions have followed. A range of related merchandise has been produced including modelling tools, snack foods and orange juice.

Whilst the series is still ongoing, a new Sengokuden model kit series has been announced to begin in July 2009. The kits will be remolded from kits released for SD Gundam Force Emaki Musharetsuden, based on previous designs which have styled these Gundams after famous historical samurai. It is currently unknown if related fiction will be produced for these kits or if they will crossover into Sangokuden.

In the main comic adaptation, the Tengyokugai first appears when Sonken summons it in grief over his father's death and goes on a devastating rampage across the battlefield. Ryuubi later summons its Souryuu form to defeat Toutaku. In the second storyline, Sousou is able to summon the Enhou formation twice and on the second occasion uses it to fight Ryuubi. When the two team up to save the planet the Tengyokugai reforms into a stripped down version of the Souryuu for Ryuubi uses, with the left over pieces (the bird head cowl, wings and twin guns) combining with Sousou in an alternate version of the Enhou configuration.

Ryuukihou (龍輝宝)

The legendary divine instrument sealed within the Ryuuteiken. The soul of the Ryuutei dwells in it, its power is above that of the Tengyokugai.
It can combine with Shouretsutei Ryuubi and can also can be equipped as separated parts by five of Ryuubi's generals. In both the manga and the Comic World version, they received this power up from the heavens during dire battles. In the manga version, Sousou remarked that the Ryuukihou appearing to aid the generals as the prove that Ryuubi is still alive.
It has the same name as the differently shaped divine instrument of Gundam Hakuryuu Taitei which was also equipped as parts by his comrades. The Ryuukihou that Ryuubi spoke to at first in his consciousness has a similar silhouette that of Hakuryuu Taitei.

Theme song

Mirisha Legend~THE BRAVE LEGEND
(三璃紗伝?~THE BRAVE LEGEND)

Japanese version: Ko-Saku
Mandarin version: Ekin Cheng
Korean version: Kim Woo Joo

The song that is featured in the promotional animation of the series. This mostly still frame animation is designed to be played at hobby shops and promotional events, introducing most of the main characters. The video was also presented in a 2007 DVD boxset of older SD Gundam animated works, as part of a feature on the history of SD Gundam.

Manga

Koichi Tokita drew the first chapter of the manga titled SD Gundam Sangokuden Fuuun Gouketsu Hen (SDガンダム三国伝 風雲豪傑編, SD Gundam Romance Of The Three Kingdoms: Gathering of the Heroes Chapter) which was serialized in volumes 7 to 12 of Comic Bom Bom in 2007. Kentar? Yano continues with the second chapter of the series titled SD Gundam Sangokuden Eiyuu Gekitotsu Hen (SDガンダム三国伝 英雄激突編, SD Gundam Romance Of The Three Kingdoms: Clash of the Heroes Chapter) which will serialize in Kerokero Ace from volume 2 of 2008 to volume 4 of 2009.[4]

After which, the third chapter SD Gundam Sangokuden Senjin Kettou Hen (SDガンダム三国伝 戦神決闘編, SD Gundam Romance Of The Three Kingdoms: Battle of the War Gods Chapter) with start from Kero Kero Ace volume 5 of 2009 and will be drawn by Naoto Tsushima. With the unknown fate of Ryuubi Gundam, the lead character of the third chapter is announced to be Bachou Blue Destiny.[5]

Model Kits

The focal point of the series is a range of model kits, produced as part of Bandai's BB Senshi line. Although in official numbering these kits began with BB 300, Bandai was only up to BB 295 at time of release and so BB 296-299 were retroactively released. Since that time every subsequent BB Senshi release has been a Sangokuden release, with the exception of SD versions of Gundam Exia, 00 Gundam and 00 Raiser from Mobile Suit Gundam 00.

The kits utilise a gimmick used by many past BB Senshi lines- armour changing. The majority of the kits are built on the same basic figure design, allowing them to swap at least head wear, shoulder armour and backpacks/capes. Some characters can also swap further elements such as chest and skirt armour. However, so far this has been limited to the initial three kits. The figures utilise ball joints, to allow poeseability and to swap out limbs due to the popular Japanese hobby of SD customisation. As further part of this, many of the characters have individualised pre-posed hands. Starting with Ryofu Tallgeese, the kits were also issued with 'neutral' hands to use as an alternative to the specifically posed ones. A related feature was most kits eventually being issued with optional secondary eye stickers to represent features such as Char Aznable-style sunglasses or a character's aiming ability. This eventually lead to a full sheet of such optional stickers being given away as a promotional item.

A number of recolours have been released. In December 2007, Bandai released a three kit set of Ryubi, Chouhi and Kanu cast in transparent plastic. This was followed in April 2008 with a similar set of Sousou and Shibai, December 2008 with Koumei and Choun and March 2009 with Sonken and Shuuyu (in contrast to the other re-releases, Shuuyu is metallic gold plated instead of transparent plastic). These multi-kit boxsets also come with large diorama cards featuring CGI-generated backdrops from the Sengokuden universe. Of special note is that Chou-Un is missing his Hieisen steed from his initial release.

A limited metallic 'special coating' Ryubi was a hobby show exclusive. The first collected manga volume also had a prize draw, with 100 pieces of silver-plated Ryubi Gundam kits as prizes. A metallic red recolour of Sazabi released in March 2009 was the first such kit to be included in the storyline, explained as a new colour schemed adopted by the character in the prologue of the second chapter.

A recoloured two kit set of Koumei and Shuuyu was released as a tie into a Romance of the Three Kingdoms feature film adaptation Red Cliff. The kits use gold, brown and white colours to copy the costumes seen in the film. The diorama card included features screenshots from Red Cliff (specifically of Cao Cao's navy at different stages) rather than the usual backdrops.

Additional model kits and add on accessories have also been made available, often as contest prizes. These include:

  • A human scale replica of the Imperial Seal
  • Energy effect parts for character's weapons
  • 'Grunt' GM and Zaku troops (the GM versions have since received a Japanese retail release, containing one GM troop from each of the three main kingdoms in each set)
  • A golden miniature dragon that can convert into weapons and armour.

A B-Club kit was also produced of the character Sonshoukou Gerbera. The model can be built in two possible poses, wielding either her bow or glaive. A BB Senshi version of the character will be released in May 2009.

A new 'Sangokuden Sidestory' line will begin in late 2009, focussing on the children of the main cast. Controversially, the kits in this line will be remolds/recolours of much older existing kits, lacking the scale and art style of all previous Sangokuden kits.

At the 'Gunpla Expo 2009', Bandai officially unveiled both HG 1/100 Scale versions of Kan-u Gundam and Chouhi Gundam. The Release dates of the two were still unannounced.
