===1990s and 2000s=== [[File:Yoshiyuki Tomino and Shinsuke Suematsu 20211104.jpg|thumb|With [[Shinsuke Suematsu]] (Award Ceremony for the Persons of Cultural Merit, November 4, 2021)]] Tomino directed an additional Gundam motion picture, ''[[Mobile Suit Gundam F91]]'' in 1991. This movie, which took place 30 years after ''Char's Counterattack'', re-launched the Gundam saga in a new direction by featuring a completely new cast. In 1993, Tomino directed his next Gundam series, ''[[Victory Gundam]]'', which (like ''F91'' before) attempted to relaunch the Gundam saga with a completely new cast. In 1996, Tomino wrote and directed ''[[Garzey's Wing]]'', and in 1998 wrote and directed ''[[Brain Powerd]]''. In 1999, he returned to Gundam with ''[[Turn A Gundam]]'' and in 2002, directed two compilations movies for it entitled ''Turn A Gundam I: Earth Light'' and ''Turn A Gundam II: Moonlight Butterfly''. Also in 2002, he directed ''[[Overman King Gainer]]'', and in 2005, Tomino directed 3 compilation movies summarizing the events of 1985's ''Zeta Gundam''. His next major original work in the 2000s was the 6-episode OVA ''[[The Wings of Rean]]'', which first premiered on the Internet across Bandai Channel, the broadcast beginning from December 12, 2005, with the final episode starting on August 18, 2006. Also in 2006, Tomino made a special cameo appearance in [[Shinji Higuchi]]'s [[tokusatsu]] film ''[[Sinking of Japan]]''. At the 2009 CESA Developers Conference, Tomino used his keynote speech to criticize the gaming industry, citing that video games "bringing no productivity at all" and that "consoles are just consuming electricity", while stressing that game developers need to focus more on quality content rather than advanced technology, comparing it to the modern animation industry.<ref>Christian Nutt, Yoshi Sato, September 2, 2009, [https://web.archive.org/web/20090906161424/http://www.gamasutra.com/php-bin/news_index.php?story=25118 CEDEC 09: Keynote β Gundam Creator: 'Video Games Are Evil']</ref> His surprising remarks have sparked mass discussions online.<ref>ε°η¬ εη±δΎ, 2009εΉ΄09ζ02ζ₯ 20ζ06ε, [http://www.itmedia.co.jp/news/articles/0909/02/news089.html γεγ«γ¨γ£γ¦γ²γΌγ γ―ζͺγγ γβ¦β¦ε―ιη±ζ ε£ζ°γγ²γΌγ ιηΊθ γιΌθ] {{Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20090905224110/http://www.itmedia.co.jp/news/articles/0909/02/news089.html |date=2009-09-05 }}</ref> After working on the CGI short ''Ring of Gundam'' for Gundam's 30th anniversary in 2009, Tomino returned to the franchise again for its 35th anniversary in 2014 in a new work in which he wrote and directed, ''[[Gundam Reconguista in G]]''.<ref>{{Cite web |url=https://www.animenewsnetwork.com/interest/2019-10-31/gundam-creator-yoshiyuki-tomino-criticizes-makoto-shinkai-works-for-lack-of-sexual-intimacy/.152531 |title=Gundam creator criticizes Shinkai |access-date=2019-11-01 |archive-date=2019-11-01 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20191101033542/https://www.animenewsnetwork.com/interest/2019-10-31/gundam-creator-yoshiyuki-tomino-criticizes-makoto-shinkai-works-for-lack-of-sexual-intimacy/.152531 |url-status=live }}</ref> The [[Anime Tourism Association]], founded in 2016, has Tomino serving as its president.<ref>{{Cite web |title=Anime Tourism Association |url=https://animetourism88.com/en/shadan/about |access-date=2023-12-10 |website=δΈθ¬η€Ύε£ζ³δΊΊγ’γγ‘γγΌγͺγΊγ εδΌ-γ’γγ‘θε°88 |language=en |archive-date=2023-12-10 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20231210002143/https://animetourism88.com/en/shadan/about |url-status=live }}</ref> Tomino was present at [[Gundam Factory Yokohama]] for the opening ceremony of the 18-meter "life-size" moving statue of Gundam in [[Yokohama]].<ref>[https://english.kyodonews.net/news/2020/12/78edcc1608c5-life-size-moving-gundam-statue-unveiled-at-yokohama-theme-facility.html Facility with "life-size" moving Gundam statue opens in Yokohama near Tokyo] {{Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20210711051309/https://english.kyodonews.net/news/2020/12/78edcc1608c5-life-size-moving-gundam-statue-unveiled-at-yokohama-theme-facility.html |date=2021-07-11 }} KYODO NEWS, December 20, 2020</ref>
