It's got some things going for it, and it's an interesting historical enterprise to see Bones' first show, but the show is all over the place. Characters just kind of flail about, sometimes violently shifting gears for no apparent reason, accomplishing nothing, and the climactic fight is literally pointless since both characters want the exact same thing but just fight anyway for some reason..

Evangelion, just the original anime, has a lot going on that weaves things together in a way RahXephon never achieves. Consider the Misato analog. Misato actually accomplishes shit as part of the story, and a good deal of the early show is entirely her running the actual show when it comes to dealing with the MOTW. This is heavily in contrast, highlighted in the show itself, what a complete mess she is outside of work, something that you get a lot of later on as everyone starts unraveling. In contrast, the Misato analog of RahXephon has some compelling character motivations, which become delightfully obvious before the show itself explicitly tells you, but her actual role in the narrative is incredibly pathetic.

I expected it to be bad and somehow it manages to be even more disappointing.\n\nAfter the first three episodes, there are some decent moments if you ignore the Screws and Death Metarots. I liked Nae. The ability for the Metarotters to reload the Death Medarots was a cool concept, especially since it gives the Metarotters something to do other than stand there and shout basic commands. It could have made battles more interesting if they were a part of the regular rules instead of being considered a dirty trick. The most painful part is that there were some good ideas and scenes mixed in with a lot of bad.

I didn't see its prequel, Build Fighters. I tried watching it but just couldn't get into its gay love affair between the MC and the alien guy. The only good part of the show seemed to be Ranko. But I was able to enjoy Try because things were easier to understand. And even though I'm not a mecha fan and I don't belong here, on the show, just by the delivery of all of the lines regarding the Crossbone Gundam Full Cloth I could tell that it was a big deal. That's just not something you're going to get from English voice actors.\n\nUpon hearing a line I want to feel that a character is ready to take on a second mortage just for information leading to the acquisition of an original 1978 mahogany weathered order form for a Crossbone Gundam Full Cloth. When I hear the English just by their tone I know they're ready to rush to the break room to steal Lorraine's hotdog lunch. Well I guess it's okay. This is a children's show after all and most children aren't Robert Ebert.\n\nAnyways Try was a good show when I think and though it's been over a decade since I've seen it I still like that scene where there's a kid dying of cancer and he's talking to Sekai and he's like \"S-sekai-kun I'm dying of cancer--Could you let me beat you so I can secure a place in the finals?\" and Sekai just responds \"I'll see you in hell\" and then uses Knights of the Round materia on his big brother when he defeats him in the quarter finals.\n\nI don't know. I just liked it more. Perhaps had I seen all of its prequel I wouldn't care for it as much. I don't know how good that gay love story is.

Great highest was 27.2% which wasn't so bad, but it's stupid to focus on a single outstanding event instead of the whole show.

First off, Maito's finishing moves Tate-ichimonji-giri and Makkou-karatake-wari. I don't like the literal translations of these because they sound very weird in English. Literal translations would be \"Vertical One-character Slash, the \"One character\" referring to the Japanese Kanji for the number one: 一, and \"From the head/top, Bamboo Splitter\" (\"Makkou\" can also mean \"right in front\" which is the definition other translations use, but in combat it means striking the enemy's head).\n\nFor now I'm going with \"Vertical Straight Slash\" and \"Overhead Bamboo Splitter\" (the latter in reference to an overhead strike at an enemy's head). I'm still keeping the Japanese names of the move the most visible though, pic related. And that brings me to another point, does this look okay? Should I maybe make the translated name a different color? If it just looks flat out lame I can always just make it an alt sub track.\n\nLastly, is it annoying that I reverse the name orders to make them more in line with western naming conventions, despite writing out all the honorifics? I mostly do this because \"Yoshinaga Sally\" and \"Raibaru Joe\" look weird in Japanese order since they have western names."}, {"id": 84, "content": ">>82\n>That audio drama would actually be fun to translate.

Let's say you are using ChoRyuJin and you are attacking a zonderized machine they are at Range 16\".\nYou've got two actions and use them to fire your Double Rifle and Double Gun. The Double Gun makes 6 shots, you have Shooting Accuracy of 9, they have Evade+3 so they need a 6+ to Evade (9 minus 3).\nThey roll 6d10, any die that is a 6+ they dodge, every die that is a 1-5 means they are hit. So if they roll [2,4,5,6,7,10] they evade 3 shots and are hit 3 times. Each hit of the Double Gun deals 200 DMG.\nSince it's a beam weapon (PEN 5) it may cause catastrophic damage by penetrating the armor and hitting the vulnerable machinery beneath. The target rolls three Armor Saves vs Armor PEN 5, on a 1-4 they take catastrophic damage, on a 5+ they are safe.\nWith your second action you could fire your Double Rifle at the same target, or a different target repeating the above steps.\nSounds like a lot, but once you get the hang of it a turn takes only a couple minutes, most of it is deciding where you will move and who you will attack.

They consist of several short arcs (usually about 5 eps long), each featuring Wataru and his party on a quest to lift a curse from a section of the alternate world (usually meaning they have to find a certain something) - as a result, there's little room for random filler and it's actually hard to safely skip an episode without missing anything (well, except for the two clip shows in late season 1) as pretty much each one progresses the plot in some way. The heavier developments of the overall plot tend to happen further down the series, though.\nAll of this means that the current distribution of good quality subs' is *pretty* unfortunate, because the TV series only have 1-2 initial arcs done each, which is well before any long-lasting development happens (for the irony, those Bandai subs were apparently done to provide some context for the Seven Spirits ONA), while the two miniseries that are completely subbed are actually bad points to start, partially bc how far in the timeline they are. (cont.)"}, {"id": 201, "content": ">>200\n(cont.) Also, if you want to watch it with a child, I have to note that while most of the time Wataru is a lighthearted show full of nonsensical humour, it also has a tendency to become surprisingly dark and disturbing at times. Original series in particular has Kurama's character arc just before the halfway point, then the Demon Gates arc near the end (particularly the last episode), and the finale counts as well.\nThe second series is particularly treacherous in that regard: the first half is surprisingly tame for a 1990 anime (I think Sunrise hoped to sell it to Europe, or at least that France buys more episodes after they licensed the first half of series 1), but in the latter half, shortly after the main mecha upgrade and opening change (probably around the moment they lost hope for export), the series starts slowly but steadily going to hell with things like one character's quite disturbing flashback to his gang past, and villains including Wataru's brainwashed mentor making several attempts to sacrifice Wataru for their demon overlord. . Do note that even in those darker parts the show doesn't entirely ditch comedy, and there are still some pretty fun episodes in there (ep. 40 of Wataru 2 is pure gold).\n(cont. 2)"}, {"id": 202, "content": ">>201\n(cont.2) Meanwhile, the Owarinaki OVA, which is a direct sequel to series 2 and was likely meant as overall finale, takes the mood and ideas of the darkest series 2 episodes, with little to no room for comedy. Add the mecha being completely written out on a flimsy excuse as well as sudden revelations and developments with huge implications that are never really explained and honestly feel like total asspulls. The result is an OVA that despite getting good subs the earliest is actually the worst starting point possible, as not only it assumes knowledge of series 1 AND 2, but also flat out doesn't feel like Wataru at all. (Some elements seem to suspiciously resemble the Zenthia trilogy of Dragon Quest games, though, so it was probably either initially a project related to that which got retooled later, or the writer got carried with the inspirations way too far).\nAnyway, there are also occasional lewd jokes in series 1 as well as Chou, though nowhere near the level of Dragon Ball of Yattaman. So overall it would be best to watch it by yourself first, to check if there isn't anything you don't want to show to your kid.\nAs for the remaining series: Mashinzan-hen is basically two postscript episodes of series 1 with some foreshadowing of series 2 (even though series 2 pretty much retconned it), and as much I like and recommend it, it requires too much knowledge of series 1 proper to be watched on its own. (cont. 3)"}, {"id": 203, "content": ">>202\n(cont. 3) As for Chou, I've only watched two first arcs (up to ep. 15), so I can't speak about the whole series for sure. For what I've seen, it's a weird attempt for a reboot while also explicitly being sequel to series 1; it seems to pretend that any other sequel, including series 2, didn't happen, though. So far it isn't at any rate as dark as some people are memeing it to be, but I'm not exactly fond of it for a number of reasons (some character designs are just plain ugly, cruder humour, the curse-breaking aspect of story gets downplayed in favour of collecting mecha upgrades, my favourite Kurama is completely gone and replaced by Suzume who has easily the worst design in the series and seems to exist largely for boob jokes, etc.) There are a few things done better than in earlier seasons (villains of the week actually having some backstory), and apparently there are some interesting developments further down the series, but so far it's a bit of a chore to watch. (cont. 4)"}, {"id": 204, "content": ">>203\n(cont. 4) Seven Spirits of Ryujinmaru ONA is probably the first series some people completed watching, including me, but I think it's actually far from good as a starting point. It takes place after series 2 (while pretending that both Owarinaki and Chou don't exist) and is meant foremost as a nostalgia series (not unlike Mezase Pokemon Master) that's full of references to series 1 and by lesser extent 2 - pretty much all enemy mecha are retools, for example. It was also a part of a really wicked multimedia project, which resulted in the anime not only starting in the middle of a battle without any explanation how we got there, but also SKIPPING. ENTIRE. TWO. ARCS. IN. THE. MIDDLE. Other media like web novel, manga and drama CDs are supposed to fill in the blanks, but while we do have some translations of the material covering events preceding the anime (Pyroxene Scans did two first chapters of the novel with summaries for the next two, while Dumbnut did chapter 0 of the manga), nothing regarding the two skipped arcs is currently translated. There is a compilation movie released a bit more than a year ago, that seems to tell more complete version of the story, but it has no rips so far let alone subs.\nThere is also a compilation OVA for the first season, but I haven't seen it yet, and it isn't subbed anyway. (cont. 5)"}, {"id": 205, "content": ">>204\n(cont. 5) Anyway, the production order of Wataru anime is: Series 1 -> Mashinzan-hen OVA -> Series 2 ->Owarinaki OVA -> Chou -> Seven Spirits (ONA -> compilation movie). It's best to watch in that order because of a running gag involving a mecha called by phone that evolved along with RL technology (from phone booths in series 1-2, through PHS cell phone in Chou, to a smartphone in 7 Spirits), which simply makes most sense that way. However, if you don't care about that, it is completely possible to skip from the end of series 1 to series 2 (not that I recommend it, Mashinzan-hen is too fun to be skipped), or after finishing series 2 to watch the remaining series in any order (which is good as Chou might be hard to get through for some), and it seems that Chou can actually be started at any time after finishing series 1.\nOh, and there is an adaptation of the whole series 1 of Wataru in Super Robot Wars X, which *has* official English release, though be aware that it's rewritten quite a bit for obvious reasons (Kurama's character arc in particular is like 80% rewrites, though the few key scenes are miraculously kept intact), and it's has some... questionable companions in there (I understand they share a dragon motif, but really, who thought it would be a good idea to make a crossover of Wataru and Cross Ange of all things?)"}, {"id": 206, "content": "Metamor-Force Power Dagwon leaked one hour before listings went up.\nhttps://sen-ti-nel.co.jp/items/mf-power-dagwon/"}, {"id": 207, "content": ">>206\nPosting the pics"}, {"id": 208, "content": ">>unknown\n>detaching the sides of the chestplate and reconnecting them to the shoulders for mobility\n\nFuck, that's clever.

The people who insist Dianna is dying due to cryosleep always ignore that if she is then she is the only example of someone dying specifically because of cryosleep in the entire show, even though Dianna notes that there are 10,000,000+ people in the Winter Palace at any one time, that we're told most citizens of the bigger cities like Ghengham go in and out of cryosleep multiple times during their life and that there are multiple characters who are both physically and chronologically older than Dianna and so must have spent more time both in and out of cryosleep than her. Which is Corin and Gym, for reference. Neither of whom are ever suggested to be dying.\n\nThe fallback then becomes \"well it's thematic, it doesn't need any actual proof\", but even putting aside that it's then entirely down to interpretation, there is also other interpretations, including that Dianna didn't want to descend to Earth to die a natural death but to live a natural life. Which includes a natural death, but is not defined solely by it. The defining characteristic of Dianna's life preshow is that she is a figurehead with so little control she doesn't even have any say over when she's awake, and is cycled in and out of cryosleep on the say of others to do things like calm the people whenever there's issues."}, {"id": 72, "content": "Her life, and life on the Moon in general is defined by cryosleep since there aren't the resources to maintain life for the tens of millions of citizens, hence why so many are in cryosleep.

In an open system like Earth with natural resources and no major boundaries in terms of living space, everyone can live at once instead of large sections being frozen at a time and more personally to her, she won't have to be frozen constantly and can just live a normal life; especially if she's no longer Queen. Which she isn't at the end of the show.\n\nThe show does mention Harry's mother (or possiby father; one of his parents anyway) dying due to substandard care, but that's not as an inherent result of cryosleep itself, which Dianna's \"dying\" is always stated to be.

Agrippa also notes that he has always objected to Dianna's return plan, even 300 years ago and talks about how the long lives of the Moonrace are only possible thanks to cryosleep. So he's been in and out of cryosleep too, and the fact he views \"long life\" as normal and something to protect implies it's not just him or a tiny handful of people like Dianna and Gym either.

It would have made so much sense, Slaine felt like a real character but Inaho felt out of place, like he wasn't supposed to be there to begin with.\nA fair bit of Slaine's characterization was shown through him taking care of the comatose princess. Inaho and Slaine served as a foil to each other. As far as it relates to the plot both were trying to rescue the princess in different ways. Inaho's objective being straightforward and Slaine with the lack of freedom expressed through the idea that she was a caged bird. The crux of the story was Inaho physically releasing the princess he was obsessed with. Then the princess decided to go to the cage to stop the war, their place in the story was clear. The problem was that what most of their important actions were at the end of the season, they found a way to undercut every development and they also managed to rush the ending causing everything to continuously make less sense.\n\n>If they'd focused on him for half the show only to suddenly kill him off that would have been an interesting direction to take.\nSlaine definitely had more to do early on in S2 and struggled with some of the better problems in the show. They had him juggling a lot with him working how to turn the orbital knights into a new kingdom, dealing with the princess's arbitrary sister, killing his mentor who started the war, and doing this while being viewed as a foreigner form a hostile state.

If Witch wasn’t attached to Gundam, I guarantee this show would join the ranks of forgotten mecha before its second season begins.\nGundam on the whole is not supposed to be subtle. It wasn’t in the 70’s and it wasn’t in Hathaway. It has always been fairly blunt about the message it wants to deliver. I still don’t know what message G-Witch wants to give us. But the yuri focus and resulting slow burn does not fit the greater franchise as a whole, imo. It just slows things down too much. Gundam is a space opera, not a drama.

I watch each episode 2-3 times honestly. It doesn't waste it's time on exposition to make sure the audience is caught up, and doesn't often re-explain any rules of the world to make sure people get it. One of the biggest twists was a simple line drop in one episode and a second line an episode later for clarification. No massive zoom in on a character or turning up the volume on their voice lines to wham the audience over the head with a giant THIS IS IMPORTANT PAY ATTENTION kind of thing. I appreciate the show expecting me to actually pay attention to what characters are saying and to what I'm watching.\n\nThere's some things that I understand people disliking about the show. Some people just don't like yuri, and the friendship in to romance is definitely a forward character development line, rather than something more backseat like most other Gundam shows. It is a bit light on action, but I feel like it's a trade-off for fights that are usually pretty high quality. I do think it's taken a bit long to get the more serious bits with the worldbuilding. Seeing that Elan had been a modified human in episode 5 felt pretty far in to start seeing some relatively fucked up shit, and I thought the scene with him getting fried was really intense. But on the other hand, I think the show being fairly light on some darker themes like that gives those scenes more punch.\n\nDropping it because you expected something else is pretty understandable, I don't recall the romance being very pushed in the marketing. I think right before the show dropped they had a tagline, The Story of Two Girls, or something? But it was after the prologue had aired, which admittedly feels a bit bait-and-switch.

It was by far the most powerful MS that participated in the final battle; only losing frankly because Rau was worse than Kira and got into a smug stupor when he thought he'd won. Impulse expands on the Strike with useful additions like the deuterion beam, more stream-lined equipment swapping, and Shinn's achievements in the machine are nothing to scoff at.\n>A-Tier: Freedom, Forbidden and Legend\nFreedom's debut is breathtaking. Blows Wing Zero out of the water. Forbidden's Geschmeidig Panzer tech was VERY novel for the time and Shani had Kira and Athrun stumped trying to get past it, bad stock footage or not. The Legend is a Providence that has been updated for the time, e.g., Destroys exist, have a lot of beams and broad defenses, so its better to sacrifice some firepower to have DRAGOONs that can pierce their shields, and an overall slimmer, more agile profile that can fly in the atmosphere"}, {"id": 14, "content": ">>13\n>B-Tier: Strike, Duel, Blitz, Chaos, Destiny, Strike Freedom\nBoth the Strike and the Duel have no stand-out qualities. The Duel was the first and bare-bones machine, while the Strike is a jack of all trades. Ultimately, both machines are better known for the feats their respecitive pilots pull off in them, than their designs. The Destiny is a nuclear powered Perfect Strike with several glaring design flaws not present in the other endgame GSD gundams do not suffer - ultimately the same critique I gave the Duel and Strike apply to it. I've always had a love-hate relationship with the Strike Freedom because while Kira kicks ass in it, it is fundamentally a Freedom that trades its plasma cannons for DRAGOONs, and not very good DRAGOONs at that when compared to what the Providence and Legend have (fuck the retcons, btw). Blitz and Chaos both have novel design features like the Forbidden, with the Mirage Colloid and Remote Weapons that can function IN THE ATMOSPHERE (!!!), but I knock down because they never get adequate spotlight to truly display them.

It was arguably the most well-equipped of the X-Numbers but none of its armaments are particularly novel and people conviently forget that it was only due to its armament edge that Athrun was able to force a draw and not an outright loss against Kira. The Calamity is just a souped up Buster to some extent but overall meh, plus it had the least interesting demise of the SEED Druggie machines. The Abyss is the most well-armed of the 2nd stage machines, I'd jokingly call it the offspring of the Freedom and a fish, but these armaments are not very novel in the same way the Chaos pods are. Akatsuki is a one-trick pony with its mirror armor and would is vulnerable to a competent pilot remembering they have CIWS. The Infinite Justice, like the Strike Freedom, is flashy but makes some questionable design decisions. First, it loses the boomerangs on its shoulders to only have 1 on its shield which also doubles as a shield blade... but if its thrown thats now gone. While its beam shield also has a grapple stinger, it actually has the worst defenses of the 4 lategame nuclear GSD machines as the S. Freedom, Destiny and Legend all have 2 shields, one on each arm, which do not take up as much space (and the Destiny/Legend have them on the back of their hands which is more manuverable than the forearm).

While I critiqued the Infinite Justice the regular Justice is straight-up not a remarkable machine, even if Athrun is (and always will be, nothing more than) Kira's sidekick. Finally, the Destroy... the first one kicked ass, and was devasting, but all that followed it were jokes.\n>F-Tier: Raider, Gaia and Saviour\nRaider exists to be a Gundam FATUM for the Calamity and nothing more, holy shit, I almost feel sorry for it. The Gaia is just a Gundam BuCUE but instead of having twin sabers in its jaw like a dog holding a bone their on the wings… bug whoop.

Compare it to the Legend, its like you're looking at two overweight people, but while one wears their extra pounds decently, the other does not.\nAs such, I'd focus on making the design a bit sleeker. The DRAGOONs are thinner yet longer, and the beam blast emitter is moved back like the Legend's, while the tip contains a beam saber. This would make the wings longer and give it a slimmer profile.\nThe beam rifles store on top of the railguns where the sabers are; and the sabers are mounted on the back skirts all the time.\nAfter Operation Fury, Terminal further upgrades the DRAGOONs by replacing the PSA on the backside of the pods (that connects to the wings) with the Akatsuki's Yata-No-Kagami reflective armor. Kira tweaks the OS and this enables him to do stunts where he can fire a beam at his own DRAGOON, then have it bounce off the backsides of several DRAGOONs.\nThe intention of the upgrade is that while the Legend has more beam guns and can make a dense \"web\" of blasts using them, Kira has more sabers and can go above and beyond Rau/Rey/Mwu with shots that ricochet off each other."}, {"id": 110, "content": ">>109\n>Infinite Justice\nReturn the FATUM design to something like the original Justice so it can stand on it rather than the nonsensical saturday-morning-helicopter-gettaway-rail it has going on, Also, give it beam shield emitters on the FATUM's wings that can activate while mounted to protect from side attacks (like the Forbidden).

Additionally, I'd add 1 of two features:\n>1. The surface of the blade is flat and treated with anti-beam coating.\n>2.

The beam resistent PSA can withstand direct contact from beam rifle blasts and sabers, so the footage of the IJ cutting off the Destiny's right arm and leg gets thrown away after this upgrade. However, there are drawbacks.

He can fire the sniper-like gun from farther away where Kira's ricochet's will be less dangerous, or if they're in the thick of things he can fire the shotgun and likely just do some damage to the SF either by hitting the vulnerable part of its DRAGOONs or causing them to bounce around in a way the SF's computer cannot properly control."}, {"id": 113, "content": ">>112\n>ZAFT knows about Orb's upgrades how?\nOne of Terminal's engineers defects to Durandal and leaks the information.

It apparently got to the point of having it storyboarded but budget concerns led to the latter half of ep6 being rewritten, and a character named Dr. Black (based of BigFire from Tetsujin 28) was also cut (he probably just awakened the robots that chase Genya and then was captured by one of the three Guardians)\n>Daisaku's way too pretty\nDrawn by the woman who drew those \"next episode\" eyecatches and was one of the lead animators for the OVA."}, {"id": 213, "content": ">>163\nMaria was such a good party member too, Seibzehn just kind of rocked every boss's shit."}, {"id": 214, "content": ">>213\nBest theme https://youtu.be/pOjZxWIrQuk [Embed]\nBest chuuni dialogue\nBest /m/ reference in the game\nBest robot\nBest girl"}, {"id": 215, "content": ">>214\nIf they rereleased Xenogears with a complete Disc 2 and a cleaned up translation I'd buy it day one.

It is very similar to 'Demo 1', with the major differences being that the default projectile for the basic Rifle was changed from an orange laser-looking projectile to the pink one used in the final. As well, all parts now have semi-finalized names in the Garage, with a few more models present, albeit not all of them textured or functional for loading into a mission.\n\nExclusive to this build is the \"Left\" statistic on parts. In this build, all normally usable parts have this value set to '2'. I'm not sure if this means the parts were going to be breakable like in SL\\LR, but if so, then this idea was only int he early stages of development this idea obviously wouldn't survive.\n\nNext, I've come to a conclusion about the lost 'Special' parts category. It was reworked into the Optional Parts system. Should be obvious, as some of textures present in \"SPEC_T.T\" not just in this build, but also in the final are of the Optional Parts themselves.\n\nFinally, the Dengeki D2 build seems to have no references to the KARASAWA or the MOONLIGHT. The former doesn't exist at all, and the latter has a placeholder model in slot and no unique attributes. Most Back Weapons are accounted for in terms of slots, though not all of the models are implemented.\n\nThe slot that would be occupied by the XCS-9900 in the final has it listed as a Plasma Cannon in this build.

So not only is the animation for a dual cannon not present, the weapon is also ill-prepared for it, and even if both existed, a new projectile type would have to be made exclusively for it that fired two rounds from two different points.\n\nThat said, what do you think this would've fired as a \"Plasma Cannon\"?

Its pilots can remotely operate the Fenestra Gundam from a safe location, making it an ideal tool for rescue missions or building demolitions.\n\nThe Fenestra Gundam's unique ability to create new openings also makes it a formidable weapon in battle, as it can catch its enemies off-guard and send them crashing out of buildings or other structures. Its agility and speed make it a difficult target to hit, while its powerful armaments can take out enemies from a distance.\n\nHowever, the Fenestra Gundam is not without its weaknesses. Its size and weight make it difficult to maneuver in tight spaces, and its reliance on hydraulic arms means that it is vulnerable to attacks that disable or damage them. Additionally, its shield is relatively small and can only protect the Gundam from limited angles."}, {"id": 19, "content": ">>15\n\nSure, here's a technical description of a mobile suit built for puking in the style of the Gundam universe:\n\nName: MSV-PUKE-01 \"Vomitron\"\n\nPilot: None\n\nHeight: 18 meters\n\nWeight: 82.5 tons\n\nArmor: Gundarium Alloy\n\nPowerplant: Ultracompact Minovsky Fusion Reactor\n\nPropulsion: Thermonuclear Jet Engines, Minovsky Drive\n\nEquipment and Armaments:\n\nPuke Cannon: A large, high-pressure cannon mounted on the Vomitron's chest that can fire highly concentrated streams of vomit at targets up to 3 kilometers away.\n\nAcid Spray: The Vomitron can spray a highly corrosive acid from its mouth, capable of melting through most materials.\n\nPuke Thrusters: The Vomitron can eject highly pressurized streams of vomit from thruster-like vents on its feet, allowing for quick bursts of propulsion and highly agile movement.\n\nPuke Shields: The Vomitron can emit a thick, slimy layer of vomit from its arms that can harden into a durable shield capable of deflecting most weapons.\n\nVomit Boosters: The Vomitron can expel large amounts of vomit from its back, providing additional propulsion and allowing it to perform high-speed maneuvers.\n\nSpecial Abilities:\n\nVomit Manipulation: The Vomitron can manipulate and control its own vomit, forming it into various shapes and using it to trap and immobilize opponents.\n\nPoison Resistance: Due to its ability to produce and manipulate highly toxic vomit, the Vomitron is highly resistant to most forms of poison and chemical attacks.\n\nThe Vomitron is a highly specialized mobile suit built for puking and is most effective in close combat situations where it can utilize its powerful puke-based attacks to overwhelm opponents.

However, the Spaghetto Gundam is also equipped with a pair of Beam Sabers for when it needs to cut through tougher armor.\n\nOne unique feature of the Spaghetto Gundam is its pockets, which are specifically designed to hold spaghetti. However, the mobile suit is often embarrassed by the spaghetti falling out of its pockets during battle, making it a vulnerable target. As a result, the Spaghetto Gundam is constantly adjusting its pockets and trying to keep them closed.\n\nDespite this flaw, the Spaghetto Gundam has proven to be a powerful force on the battlefield, thanks to its maneuverability and surprise attacks with its spaghetti dispensers.\n```"}, {"id": 74, "content": ">>68\nThat doesn't make any sense, it's like saying don't paint when you can just scream the message in your head at people."}, {"id": 75, "content": "AI IS INEVITABLE\nROBOTS ARE THE FUTURE"}, {"id": 76, "content": "This is probably the most harmless a.i thread i've seen.

I'm going to use the gacha Shino card as an example. it's a gacha card, which is more often way more powerful than farmed cards, not only because it has \"perfect\" fixed stats, but also usually has multiple set bonus.\ngoing over it one by one,\n\nset bonus: this is probably the most important part of choosing which card to use. every card has a set bonus that only activates if you put in 2 or 4 cards with the same set bonus, and the effect is usually significant. this particular card, for example, has a set bonus which increase your unit's attack power by 30% if you have two cards with it (or 40% if you have 4). there are also other types of bonus which includes other buffs, giving your attacks debuff, or even adding a shield to your suit. the latter is very useful if your suit has a \"on 100% health\" conditional trait. one easy trick to get these bonus is to just equip duplicates of the card on the same pilot.\n\npassive bonus: additional ones, usually very minor but you can improve it with dupes (talking about 1%-5% increases). I'd suggest not doing this on cards you can actually use duplicates.\n\nstat bonus: this is also an important factor, but gacha cards usually have a good selection of these while farmed cards come with random ones. which means yes you need to farm them. notable ones are shown in the pic, these are the ones that increase your overall attack power."}, {"id": 6, "content": ">unit grade\nthere's a \"grade\" system in both pilots and MS, as in the previous picture. to find out the unit grade, you can press the small button while you're assembling a unit, see pic. a unit takes into account both grades and combines it into unit grade. for easier calculation, just think of it like D=1, C=2, B=3, A=4, and you just need to add both MS and pilot grades to get the unit grade. basically to get an A unit you need to either put a D pilot on a B MS or vice versa, or you can go over it and put B unit on a B MS but it caps at A so it's kinda wasted. I'm guessing this is their system to differentiate between \"easy\" suits like the Graze compared to \"difficult\" ones like Barbatos that you need actual skill to pilot, also with pilots that aren't actually pilots like Kudelia compared to professional ones like Mika or McGillis. that being said, I'm still not really sure how important this is in regards to unit performance."}, {"id": 7, "content": ">Daily ex quest\nYou can do the ex quests to get the money & exp (to buy stuff in the daily shop and raise your MS)\nThe right is for the money\nThe left is for exp to raise pilots, MS, scene cards"}, {"id": 8, "content": ">Daily shop\nYou can buy mats to upgrade your MS here\nIt sometimes have some gold coin that costs a million which you can use to buy SSR MS/Pilot ticket (depending on the symbol on the coins)\nIt sometimes sell 5 Akihiro fragments\n>Pilot fragments\nThe fragments are needed to \"limit break\" them (raise their max lvl up). or you can scrap those fragments for SSR materials.\nYou can also craft a pilot from unit list using those fragments. you need 100"}, {"id": 9, "content": ">Exchanging SSR MS/Pilot/Scene ticket\nIf you need firepower, Ryusei-Go. or maybe Gaelio's Graze (the purple one).

But after that the original material probably isn't as popular as it once was anymore, and/or the second season saw a decline in viewership (because most people who watch sequels would have had to have finished the first season, so there is viewership attrition as shows go on. Only a very small handful of black swans like Star Trek The Next Generation or Game of Thrones pick up viewership as the seasons go on). It's also mecha, which is technically difficult to animate and the mecha industry has gradually lost its mecha animation techniques over time as animators retired but new people weren't taught.

Until Anti actually becomes Gridman Sigma I don't really count it.

But for fans of the original series who consider the Sigma story we got (plus he has modern toys and an appearance in the short) canon then it would be shitty to skip Takeshi as a host.\n\n>The plan was formulated back during the production of the original show. In the third quarter of the series, Takeshi Todo was meant to steal Gridman's data and become Khan Knight (カーンナイト Kān Naito), a rival character and Kahn Digifer's servant, before redeeming himself as Grid Knight (グリッドナイト Guriddo Naito). Additionally, had the original plan taken place without the aforementioned production problems, Grid Knight would star in a sequel season. As revealed in an old magazine called Denkou Choujin Gridman 2: Great Determination! Great Monster Encyclopedia (電光超人 グリッドマン2 たいけつ!かいじゅうだいずかん Denkō Chōjin Guriddoman 2 Taiketsu! Kaijū Daizukan), there was a design of a second Gridman, who was themed after a European knight. Despite his near-identical appearance to Gridman save his head, Sigma is designed by anime Mecha designer Hideo Okamoto (岡本 英郎 Okamoto Hideo).[1]\n\n\nSo Gridknight became Gridman Sigma instead of Grid Knight from what I understand.

But I thnk I heard from somewhere that Kimberly was leaving too and that was a bridge too far for me, plus I must have moved on to my next childhood interest by then (soccer) so I never saw any again.\n\nAnyway in 2023 I decided to resume where I left off in 1995. So I watched all of s3. Wasn't very good at all. Starts off wth the cringe Masked Rider thing. I didn't like the ninja suits, half way between morphing and not. Worst of both worlds. And over the course of it, obviously they had to use the Japanese source material as the guide and didn't have much wiggle room so kind of had to mould their story in line with the broad strokes of the Japanese stuff otherwise they would have practically no footage to use - but WOOF it was a mess. Ninjazords, Shogunzords. Kim leaving was sad but at least she got a proper sendoff. But her being gone is just another source of sadness, the replacements just ain't the same. Esp for her, gorgeous babe, probably had my first erection to her in my childhood and by far the best actor in the whole series I've seen (so far), the only one who could properly act. Then the rangers turning into children and the gay Aquitar Rangers. 10 eps of it. Yikes. Only saving grace of the s3 was Bulk and Skull as police cadets.\n\nStarted s4, Zeo, a couple of weeks ago. Guessing they had to move the suits on because there was no more of the Jap source material for the MMPR suits. Don't like the suits, don't like the morphing. But whatever..."}, {"id": 3, "content": "...But Jesus Christ I just watched ep 15 where Tommy gets the letter from Kim breaking up with him and breaking his heart revealing she's with someone else. I know it's fiction and they had to officially end the Tommy-Kim romance somehow because apparently Tommy and Kat start a romance later. But god damn, as a guy whose first love broke my heart in a similar way, it hits right in the feels, bros. My life has moved on, but honestly I've kinda never recovered from that, the trauma of it. Because when it's your first love you're so naive about how the nature of women and how easy it is for them to fall out of love with and forget about you.

The over the top theme park ride action sequences we get today pale in comparison to the simpler times when it was just guys fighting other guys.

This is already a high amount of thrust, the test pilot that Cardeas had in the Unicorn was nervous during the acceleration tests in episode 1, and this was without engaging NT-D at all. In theory, NT-D revealing six extra thrusters that are the same size as the two regular backpack thrusters could quadruple the amount of thrust since it now has 8 main thrusters, not just 2, putting it from 142,000kg to 568,000kg.\n\nThat said, we know for sure the Unicorn ran out of fuel helping lift the Garancieres into space, so bringing the Banshee along should have just made it run out of fuel even faster.\n\nAnd well, the Mobile Suit Archive databook for the Unicorn claims that in NT-D mode the thrusters can momentarily allow the suit to reach 20 g of acceleration, which exceeds what the famed V2 could do (but I imagine the V2 could sustain it for longer)"}], [{"id": 1, "content": "10 years today, /m/en, the ride began."}, {"id": 2, "content": ">>1 (OP)\nNever watched it.

And the epilogue does matter, as it not only references the novel the chapter is named after but his last talk with the girls flashes in Takeru's mind when he loses it on the XM3 run. And if Meiya had been replaced by Yuuhi, only that scene wouldn't have Takeru's daughter.

Meiya literally says the nobility stayed on Earth before Takeru pulls the fleet's ticket out. Despite the danger, no one thought Babylon would end as it did. TDA makes a point of how important Yuuko's report is, and how it wasn't taken into account before except for maybe Ikaruga.

This mission, which lasted several weeks, would be a disaster that disappointed many.\n\n>During the earliest stages of the mission, the Takemikazuchi performed exactly as expected of it. However, its operational uptime gradually declined. It took only a few weeks for the entire unit to shut down completely. The unit was forced to withdraw before its mission was complete, and the Shogunate and Royal Guard were left to coldly analyze the results. The reasons for the operation’s failure were plain as day, and it was for these reasons, not “secrecy”, that they’d denied the original requests for the Takemikazuchi’s deployment.\n\n>The Royal Guard was an organization intended as a last line of defense for the Emperor and Shogun. It was always intended to fight on Japanese soil, under conditions of enemy invasion. The Takemikazuchi was the same way: at its core, it was only intended to operate under a very specific set of conditions. The TSFs high specs required an equally cutting-edge maintenance infrastructure. When a Takemikazuchi Type F was sent to the United States as part of testing for the XFJ Project, it was only able to be maintained at 70% of its true capability. And of course, this was at Yukon base, which boasted one of the world’s most advanced maintenance and repair environments, and the unit was only used a few times.\n\n>It was clear from the start what would happen when it was forced to deal with inferior Soviet equipment and inferior Soviet supply chains. The Shogunate was spending all its money on acquiring Takemikazuchis, and had no funds with which to improve the model. With these glaring deficiencies discovered, any hopes of selling the Takemikazuchi overseas were dashed, and the Zuikaku couldn’t beat the Jian-8, a similar design concept, on operating and procurement costs.\n\nlmao"}, {"id": 132, "content": ">>131\n>Several months later, the Royal Guard TSF units were given a de-facto death sentence when it came time to submit their proposal for budgetary appropriations to the Ministry of Finance.

The Super Phantom Project was the core of future Hive capture operations, as well as the solution to the global lack of TSFs. The Japanese Government, especially its foreign affairs ministry, wanted the Japanese-led Alternative 4 to maintain its critical position in global affairs in the future. The Prime Minister personally announced the nation's full support for the project. Not only would they provide free Type 74 F-4Js to the project, but they would also offer the technologies they’d developed for enhanced melee combat. And after his success with the XFJ project, they proposed bringing onboard Frank Heinemann.\n\n>This proposal would later be expanded to include a joint development project for a Type 82 upgrade and modernization kit that would be usable on all TSFs in the F-4 lineage, as well as the development of a Takemikazuchi export model. It was just what the Shogunate and Royal Guard needed, to the point that they were suspicious that someone was setting them up. By this point, however, they were too desperate to be paranoid. They agreed to the government’s plan.\n\n>2003 saw the start of “Project Dawn”, the modernization project of the Type 82. While they were unable to get Frank Heinemann involved in the project, they were able to get Edward Graf, his best student, to take the position of chief engineering advisor, and Cpt.

The East German government is historically hated for its treatment of its citizens, the Stasi breaking into apartments and inflicting psychological warfare to traumatize its dissidents into complicity. No doubt this is what the Tankies in today's leftist movements would want once they are in power. East Germany was also a satellite nation, a proxy tool of the Soviet Union. So it's pretty obvious given Alternative's pro independent Japan story that the conflict would be the people of Germany vs the ruling establishment of Germany. All Germans want a united nation, just how to go about it is the issue, therein lies the conflict. I don't thinks it's silly that the Stasi being East Germany's internal security apparatus wouldn't try to overthrow a stagnant government to be out of bounds. If Washington were about to be overthrown by a violent leftist movement, you think the CIA and the military are going to sit on their arses and just let things slide?\n\nJapan is pretty right wing and anti left wing.

At the time of the action of Schwarzesmarken, the GDR was actually isolated from the USSR and Yugoslavia, Poland and other countries of the Warsaw bloc had already been destroyed. Thus, East Germany automatically becomes dependent on the still untouched Western Europe. The politicians and military in Berlin would hardly have objected to the necessary rapprochement - communist ideology can be repurposed for any state task, China guarantees - if the Stasi tries to seize power under such conditions, the Party and the Army will destroy them more thoroughly than angry citizens.\n\nThis is the problem, the author not only inflated the STAZI tropes to an insane level, but also spit on the impact of the \"butterfly effect\" on historical events, and also spit on the geopolitics of a particular moment.\n\nIt's funny to say, but communist Germany, even having lost everything, manages to exist in the 2000s.

Those more on the edge may show a pixelated pussy or masturbation. Even if there is some penetration it's likely simulated or has the crotches covered.\nBut then you see the contents of these erotic \"softcore\" toku and even though they don't show any nipple, it got some fetishes that aren't on anyone's cup of tea, like bondage, or more normie-alienating, the violence in how heroines get punched or whipped. Even if there's no blood, does that count as hardcore? If sparks fly out does it stray off from normal abuse and be more of a fetishized toku trope?\nAnd speaking of the latter, wouldn't the way some conventions of toku shows are sexualized in these AVs, become a turn-off to normies? Take a scene with the heroine at the mercy of a villain, he may not do anything explicitly sexual to her. Instead he takes of some device like a tube or stringe gun to suck out her energy (which may appear as a glowing effect going from her to the thing) and the girl moans or shrieks. This is her being in pain but portrayed as the stuff to masturbate to. Then as a result of that she may get detransformed and the return to the leotard she wears during the henshin, which may include losing the helmet. A normie would be fine as this means her taking off more clothes. But then if she's completely drained she returns to her civilian clothes, this is meant to be very titilating but from a normie viewpoint doesn't make any sense why she returned to having normal clothes. Would those fetishes that violate common sense* and rely on toku to be understood as sexy count as hardcore or softcore?\n*I'm talking from some of the most normalfag standpoint that the less clothes and the more actual sex the better.

Witch has interesting characters and an interesting scenario but the world which is supposed to be the stage for those things feels like it fails to meet the standards I’ve come to expect from Gundam. Gundam’s core theme is that war is hell but I think another core part of Gundam is the world building that helps get across that message. IBO might have been horribly paced and the story took forever to go anywhere but at the very least people constantly said that the AU itself had a ton of potential alongside the war we never got to witness. I’ve gotten way off track but WFM has the scenarios and characters for a Gundam but unlike even the worst Gundam you can think of, the world is just lacking outside of the companies."}, {"id": 271, "content": ">>97\n>What is inflation"}, {"id": 272, "content": ">>268\n>Keying in\nDoes banrise actually shill here or are we full of redditors now"}, {"id": 273, "content": ">>1 (OP)\nYou will never be a real Gundam..."}, {"id": 274, "content": "At the very least this shit show doesn’t have a shota, Becuase I dread how much worse and how much /SS/ spam there would be if it had so instead of just the /u/ garbage"}, {"id": 275, "content": ">>271\nYou're somehow the biggest retard in this thread, the yen is famous for having the lowest inflation rate of any first world currency. 54.2 billion in 2003 would be 59 billion in 2023."}, {"id": 276, "content": "I've still yet to start it because:\n>school\n>cgdct tier character designs in gundam\nKind of concerning.

And bringing up IBO and 00 as examples provides good contrast. In both cases I agree the setting felt as much like a character as the actual cast, and both provided lots of potential storytelling beats well beyond what we actually see in the series. WfM definitely tightens the lens on its broader world, primarily because it's trying to tell a much more personal story. Besides what we saw in the prologue, there are really just hints here and there for how the world wound up where it is and why. For viewers who like the immersion of being able to take in a whole new scifi setting and tease apart its nuances, I can see how this could be less than satisfying, especially if the school dynamic doesn't appeal.\n\nI got into it because I liked how the various houses feel like a logical evolution of Anaheim Electronics, turning the wheel of war from the engineering desk just as much as the Feds and Zeon did from the front lines. There's a lot of socio-economic commentary happening there, but again, we don't see the direct results of that much besides the glimpses of the state of Earth. I really like how the Gundams are treated in the show though. Tech like that absolutely deserves to be sanctioned, and I think it's fantastic they've made it central to the plot. It shares that with IBO's AV implants, and how costly it's shown to be for the pilots.\n\nThat said, I've really appreciated the central trauma they've spun into Suletta and Prospera's relationship. Every episode it feels like Prospera manages to one-up herself in terms of being the absolutely most manipulative monster in the show, and if she keeps it up she's going to give Gendo a run for his money in terms of Parent of the Year.

It's the signature weapon, and you can tell that because if you ask someone what weapon defines the X, they'll reply that it's the satellite cannon. It's mentioned far more often in regards to the X even on /m/.\n\nIt's even apparent in the unit's design, since the X was designed to take out colony cylinders on it's own. Which it does using the satellite cannon. The Flash System and G-Bits were secondary to that, as a way to amplify the resources of the UNE, since they had a limited number of Newtypes and were fighting a total war.

For example, people talk about its space supremacy and oppressing Earth make it compatible with G, but then you have to ignore how Gundams are banned when Witch starts up, which removes a a lot of pressure unless you just want the World 3 DD writer to just copy and paste like he always and ignore a cohesive narrative. It doesn't mesh well with any of the other Gundams, even ignoring the Gundam ban.

Special Weapons all offer a unique action, which can do things that regular weapons can't. They can change your gameplay and you can develop a playstyle around them.\n\nGimmicks are basically the GM's license to change the objectives needed to win a battle. If all you ever did was just pump damage downrange, then a couple things would happen: Battles would be very boring and a strict damage-first meta would probably emerge. But if every Battle has unique conditions, such as needing to protect and assemble some kind of plot device, or needing to prevent an Angel's movement above everything else, you can start to see more Upgrades and weapons be used.\n\nIt says it in the book but the time spent properly dealing with a Gimmick should also impact the overall duration of a fight. If you expect players to take about 3 Rounds to properly \"solve\" a gimmick, then maybe the Angel only needs 2 Wounds to down. If a Gimmick is an all or nothing situation that will take the full 5 or so Rounds expected, then you should probably reduce that to 1 Wound or have the Angel simply be defeated when you've accomplished the goal."}, {"id": 48, "content": ">>35\nI love the superhero stuff and superspy nonsense.

When you play AdEva 2 or 3, it's not that one player is Shinji who constantly hammers on Asuka's inferiority complex by being better than her despite all evidence suggesting that she should be better than him, and one player is Asuka who constantly hammers on Shinji's emotional neglect and sexual frustration by being mean to him and sending mixed messages. Instead the Angels produce magic insanity auras, and Shinji and Asuka both keep failing tests to withstand the magic insanity auras until they break down from the stress.

Combat typically lasts about three rounds, but you get to make two attacks per round so you get to do around six things per fight. You start out with a fairly limited attack list, but you get more move slots and quality options with each rank up, so higher-level Digimon aren't just bigger stat bricks than lower-level ones, they also have more stuff they can do and more options for what their stuff can do.\n\nTamers are mostly meant to be skill monkeys and provide support in battle, but you can build to have your human punch stuff if you really want to, at least early on. Unless you play with the Extreme settings, combat tamers fall off pretty hard past the early game, but your high tamer stats come with Special Orders you can use during battle so it's not like it's a waste to put points in your physical stats. Charisma and Willpower definitely rule the roost for tamer stats for general use, because they get the best support stuff, but you're not totally gimping yourself if you don't take them.\n\nNow, the downsides. There's no bestiary, so you do have to make everything yourself. It's not a problem once you know how, but for a first-time GM you probably want to give yourself a little bit of time. There's a few sore spots that can break combat if you're not careful: the Combat Monster quality, grapplers, and Fateful Intervention are big examples. You can implement houserules to fix them, but the game mostly works fine as-is.

Even if you're going to school for the sake of Mom's revenge, and even if it's Mom's words that gave you this courage.\n\nSo no, this control everything theory isn't clear at all. The canon material says Prospera wants revenge and controlling everything is adjacent at best and just one step in her plan towards revenge, since she doesn't need to control everything to kill a few people. And it still doesn't explain why the Aerial was made to be such a capable killing machine, especially if Eri can just control things in a data storm. It isn't actually necessary, as we just saw, to kill to get the permet score up high enough to cause a data storm to manifest in real space.

Dominicus is clearly a military or military affiliated unit attached to Cathedra and Delling was ex-military and a war hero. He has the most influence with them by himself. Moreover, he was moments away from being appointed as the representative of Cathedra when he executed the raid, so he had the authority to call the shots with Dominicus.

Good way to show just how dangerous her knowledge was.\n>End scene was good, as was the tribute.\n>Rocky getting a final blow on a monster made me happy\n>Kat being Tommy’s wife was good to see\n\nCons\n>Megazord fight looked really weird\n>Sound effects are pretty bad, especially for Putty fights\n>Entire scene exists just for “My boyfriend”, which was so odd it was laughable\n>Whole beginning portion feels really awkward\n>Trini’s daughter is annoying until the final fight\n>Production looked cheap, but not MMPR cheap, more like “YouTube video” cheap\n>Hated Billy being the cause of Rita coming back. I really hate that trope. I also hate how at the end he just goes “Oh well, I’ll try again.” Seemed really bizarre and tone deaf to the fact that him playing around with forces he didn’t understand killed his friend.\n>The opening and Trini’s death was really, really awkward.

Would Mars and beyond colonized too and are they also under Benerit's control or by another mega-conglomerate?).

These interviews are seldom translated or noted in the West, but this sentiment goes way back.\n\nMiyazaki and Tomino, to my knowledge, worked on both Hazedon and an onslaught of other late 60s/early 70s shows together before Tomino set off as a more distinguished director/writer and Miyazaki set off with Isao Takahata to start Ghibli more or less. They had beef as far back as their respective Mushi Pro days. If I could find the proper interview, there is one where Tomino basically says that Miyazaki butted heads with him a lot on the basis of creative differences and was even jealous (allegedly) of Tomino getting to direct Umi no Triton.\n\nOn another angle, Isao, before he passed had a long term beef with Yoshikazu Yasuhiko and Miyazaki still does not acknowledge him for his input in the industry. Miyazaki apparently would read Animage and similar magazines just to see if he was mentioned once, and felt Mecha shows just pandered to the lowest common denominator and were not \"art\". This makes a lot of his rifts with Otaku and younger animators come to light, but he has snubbed almost every SF/mecha creator in some way or another.\n\nTomino honestly has been tired of Miyazaki's pretentiousness for years.

While the Federation on Earth has its hands full against the Great Emperor of Darkness and his army of Mechanical Beasts, at space the Crossbone Vanguard is fighting an unsanctioned campaign a Zentradi-backed Zanscare Empire's assault on the Earth Sphere's territory.\n>Meanwhile, the warring peoples of Cybertron detect the signals of the Matrix deep within Earth's bosom, its energies, vital to restoring the war-torn planet, with the power-hungry Decepticons looking to use its magic for themselves, while the pacifistic Autobots under Optimus Prime wish to safeguard it and the planet it landed on from their imperialistic designs.\n>Between Zentradi incursions, Megatron's marauding Decepticons, and the maniacal Zanscare forces, the Solar System was already on fire when the BETA were first detected in UC 0106, sowing a special kind of horror for all parties involved. As colonies were gradually being snuffed out, one by one, the many separate colonies, planets and special groups around created their own forms to fight back\n>Earth, after the recent discovery of the alien locusts, developed different solutions to mass-produce against the thread, the Mazinger Army. Based on the highly-experimental Photon Power technology developed by Dr. Juuzo Kabuto, the Mazingers sadly proved to be as expensive as they were powerful.

At the very end, when Nanai cuts in while Char is fighting Amuro, Char says, “Don’t come between men,” and Nanai replies with something a real mother would never say, “Are you going to abandon us?”\n\nFor example, Lalah would never say something like that. Char knew from the beginning that Nanai was that kind of woman. He knows, but he can’t live without her. It’s a bold way of thinking. Even though he knows it’s fake, he still hangs on to it. I kind of understand his feelings as a fellow man.\n\nAnno: The weak part?\n\nIkuni: The weakness.\n\nAnno: Yeah since Lalah is dead.\n\nIkuni: I think he sees Lalah in a positive light partially because she died. For example, girls tend to use fine-sounding phrases like “I love you regardless of your status, position or money” but it’s hard not to think “that’s all lies and you actually care that I have my current position and status, don’t you?”\n\nAnno: Well yea, it’s better to have than to be without.\n(1/2)"}, {"id": 38, "content": ">>37\nIkuni: That’s what I’m saying. Just, the reason why Char is drawn to Lalah is because she is dead. What her death signifies is, for example, if one day Char says, “I’m tired of being commander, I’m going to go to a warm tropical island and live leisurely,” Lalah would come along. And of course, Nanai would too.\n\nHowever, the biggest difference between the two of them is that Nanai would dutifully serve him as a mother and as a woman with the burning hope that he will one day return to his former glory as commander. Except that on the day that Char insists that he is exhausted and will remain living leisurely on this island, Nanai will flip and say, “the old you would’ve never said something like that” and leave him.\n\nIn Char’s imagination, Lalah would say, “Such a life is also one’s happiness so let’s live together leisurely.” This is the delusion he holds towards her.\n(2/2)"}, {"id": 39, "content": ">>36\nHis dad's name is LITERALLY Zeon (also Sayla/Sarah)"}, {"id": 40, "content": ">>22\nThat's a pretty impressive low anon.

His motivation straddles the line between \"profound\" and \"cartoonish\" in an odd way I cannot explain. That said as a character he's well suited to villainy and plays quite a convincing villain. There is a reason he is aped so much.\n\nThe mecha designs are, I feel, the high point of Tomino's career, above G Reco even. Solid all around from the Gundams to the grunts.\n\nThe best part of the movie is of course the final act, which does in fact feature one of the best animated fights in Gundam.

I REALLY did not like that much at all. I hated the pacing, the writing (Char as a character was basically destroyed by this movie in my eyes), most of the new characters and the ridiculous love triangle plot between Quess, Ginyu or whatever the hell his name is and Hathaway. To me there was just so much wrong with this film in terms of writing and pacing and many things seemed to just fly in the face of previously established storylines, characterizations, and even motifs relating to Gundam as a whole. A lot of this movie reminded me a lot of the things I did not like about Double Zeta only exponentially worse.\n\nI did however enjoy the animation and music, one of the few things I really liked, along with the mech design. Personally, I think this concept would've benefited much more from being an OVA/miniseries kind of thing like Stardust Memory or 08th MS team length instead of being a feature film. So many things happen so fast, and so many characters are introduced without us getting to properly know them or being allowed room for character development or story/lore progression.\n\nI guess by the time I had finished it and mulled on it for a few days the biggest surprise to me was how much my own opinion on the film is drastically different from the overall reception it has."}, {"id": 252, "content": ">>250\nI'm pretty sure there's shots showing them pulling them from the wreckages of surrounding suits."}, {"id": 253, "content": ">>251\nWatch it again in a year.

If you're in space, either in the colonies or one of the various colonized planets, the overwhelming likelihood is you're poor. We're told that the Martian economy has a crazy high unemployment rate, and is controlled by Earth (hence the need for an independence movement). Its even probable that you're a slave of some description. Tekkadan are former Human Debris (slaves) child soldiers. The Turbines are made up entirely of freed female workers, who were heavily implied to have been abused within their previous employment. Even in the colonies near earth, where Human Debris appear more uncommon, the working conditions we see are more akin to factories from the industrial revolution, with the labor movements that came with them. And on Earth itself? Although we see some affluent people, we also see slums and child sex slaves. So it ain't great there either. The only thing we know about most of the other planets is they have prisons or labor camps. All of which is run by Gjallarhorn."}, {"id": 40, "content": "2/?\nDon't let the outcome of the show fool you. Despite signing the Human Debris Outlaw act and allying with the independent Mars government, and (we're told) running Gjallarhorn in a more democratic manner at the end of the series, Rustal didn't make these changes by choice so much as he saw the way things were going and made concessions to consolidate his own power. In his own actions, and those of Gjallarhorn in general sans Mcgillis, it is very clear that Gjallarhorn is a force for evil, selling their services to the highest bidder, instead of performing neutral policing as was intended. They set out to crush the Mars Independence movement so that they could maintain Earth control and financial backing. The Ariannhod Branch, which Rustal controls directly, was responsible for the false flag attack and incitement of violent worker rebellion within the Dort Colonies, all to show the workers how useless it was to organize for better wages and conditions. I wouldn't be suprised if some organizers were sent to aforementioned labor camps or prisons. In Urdr Hunt, its confirmed the the Kujan Family owns some colonies that his fleet attends to, so its actually very likely the Rustal owns the Dort Colonies himself, since they are under his fleets jurisdiction. Rustal himself escalated domestic conflict (directly opposed to Gjallarhorns stated objective of preventing wars) in order to fuck with Arbrau. They also reinstated the use of Dainsleifs (which is illegal) and then blamed Tekkadan and the Turbines for it."}, {"id": 41, "content": ">>1 (OP)\n>And If We Could Move On\nWe were doing just fine until you went and opened your mouth."}, {"id": 42, "content": "3/?\nSo why did Rustal end up supporting these positive policies? Because at the end of the Gjallarhorn civil war, and the events preceding it, Gjallarhorn and its reputation had taken quite a beating, loosing a significant portion of both Rustal's and Mcgillis's fleet, and it was on the verge of loosing its power base. The economic blocks understood that Gjallarhorn was not a neutral third party but in fact had its fingers on the scales, and were beginning to form their own militaries. Gjallarhorn wasn't faring any better in space, where Tekkadan's story, far from a cautionary tale, proved that Gjallarhorn weren't invincible, especially now. Rustal conceding to democracy was his way of convincing the economic blocks that Gjallarhorn would no longer fuck with world affairs. His bringing the Independent Mars government into the fold was a way of trying to assuage space interests. And the outlaw of Human Debris? Trying to prevent worker revolts. All of these things, and more, would've occurred had Mcgillis succeeded. They were all set in motion by his faction. Rustal just didn't have the ability to stop their momentum."}, {"id": 43, "content": "4/?\nMcgillis and Tekkadan aren't villains\n-- \"I was never a child. I had responsibilities. I've had responsibilities for as long as I can remember...\" \"You did not grow up. You grew old.\" --\nThese lines, spoken by Londo and G'kar in Babylon 5, describe Mcgillis to a tee. Mcgillis was a child prostitute elevated to nobility by a client who favored and adopted him, his foster father. But not being the actual child of a noble, and being kept around specifically as a sex slave, even though his material conditions improved emotionally he was in the same, or an even worse, spot as he was in the slums. He always had to be perfect in school, sports, etc. and could never let his guard down or connect with his 'peers', because if his foster father thought that he was harming his reputation, he'd be sent back to the slums. Mcgillis is trying to live out a mythical life (I hesitate to call it a fairy tale because its based in history somewhat) like Agnika Kaeru, because the stories of Agnika are all he had to live off of when he was a child sex slave. Mcgillis is perhaps most vulnerable with Almeria when he prevents her from killing herself after learning that he (attempted to) murdered her brother and launched a coup. He tells her \"You might be sad now, but as long as you keep living, you'll be happy again, someday\". And this isn't just a way to prevent her from killing herself and thus lose him the Baudin house's support, its what he sincerely believes, because its this belief that keeps him going. Because he hasn't reached that point yet."}, {"id": 44, "content": "5/?\nMcgillis wasn't a wannabe dictator, because Agnika wasn't a dictator. He was a leader who brought the world out of a crisis against the Mobile Armors and formed Gjallarhorn to prevent future wars. We can view Mcgillis through this lens. He wants to be a leader who brings Gjallarhorn out of a crisis in its purpose, root out corruption that allowed his situation to occur, and revitalizes the old war-preventing system. And we haven't seen him do anything against these goals (though his methods are questionable at best, and childish at worst). While he does maintain a relationship with Almeria for political purposes, its clear he's uninterested in her sexually (no child rape). He actually tries to end the conflict between Arbrau and another bloc that Rustal tries to perpetuate. He's even careful with the Hashmal where, despite knowing that killing it could cause a political upset he handles the situation very carefully and does his best not to wake it up, unlike Iok who is more worried about the political implications than the safety of Mars. And even if these don't convince you, frankly, there are very few ways things could get any WORSE under McGillis than they already are."}, {"id": 45, "content": "6/?\nTekkadan can be viewed in much the same way. They want to move from being slaves to being strong enough to live on their own and abolish slavery wherever they can. Tekkadan weren't wrong in wanting to be \"The Kings of Mars\". The Mars Independence government, though it had been validated through its partnership with Arbrau and their defeat of Gjallarhorn's political machinations, was still far from stable or guaranteed to last. They, like the rest of the economic blocs, mostly lacked a military, but there were many more pirates and gangsters among the stars than near Earth (mostly because of Gjallarhorns stranglehold there. Tekkadan pursuing being recognized as their protectors in a official capacity by Gjallarhorn was a good idea. It would make Mars a harder target for pirates and solidify the position of the independence government. To top it off, it would guarantee that, rather than the previous situation where the Martian Gjallarhorn branch was just a patsy for Earth HQ, the Martians would be protected by Martians with Martian interests in mind."}, {"id": 46, "content": "7/?\nThe Theme\nThe theme of Iron Blooded Orphans is that relationships are more important than your job, that at some point the next step in the ladder isn't worth the effort you spent to get there. Neither McGillis's or Tekkadan's goals were bad, but in order to achieve them they ignored points where they could've stopped and been happier. Mcgillis closed himself off from Gaelio and Carta, but if he had let them in, they could've helped him overthrow his father and route out corruption without the civil war. But Mcgillis, as Gaelio said in his last conversation with him before he died, \"Never saw [him]\". As for Tekkadan, Biscuit was not the moral compass of the group, but the voice of caution. He was fully onboard with Tekkadans actions up until he experienced his brothers death. But after that, he decided that he didn't want to experience that pain ever again. His argument is not \"It's morally wrong to kill people.\" or even \"What Tekkadan is doing is immoral\". Its \"Is what Tekkadan is doing worth our lives?\" His death did not fundamentally change Tekkadan's operating procedure or character, it merely removed the limiting factor on Mika's voice of drive. And the alternatives that Mcgillis and Tekkadan are presented with but ignore/fail to take advantage of are not necessarily \"A way to the top\", but a \"a way off the ladder\". Mcgillis could've enjoyed his privileged lifestyle with his friends, or he could've enjoyed his position near the top having deposed his father. Tekkadan could've stayed as they were after Mar's emancipation, they could've expanded into other businesses like farming, they could've started families, etc. And this is really pushed home by the ending, where both Mcgillis and Mika realize that they had what they wanted all along: a place and people to belong with, Tekkadan's final act of ensuring that their support staff make it out alive, and the ending with Atra and Kudelia continuing Tekkadan's legacy in the proper manner: having a family."}, {"id": 47, "content": "8/8\nWhy people hate it\nYes the show meanders a lot in the second season.

Naze says the mine can make them all a fortune after only a few short years and they'd be able to stop taking dangerous merc jobs in favor of running and guarding the mine. Then that all goes up in smoke because Hashmal trashes the place and they get the blame for it.\n\nFor Mcgillis, it also \"frees his hesitations\" as he says convincing him that he can win with the power of Gundam's after seeing Barbatos take down the Hashmal. Previous's he was correctly suspecting Rustal was onto him and that Gaelio might have actually survived, which was just more or less confirmed to him when Vidar showed up in front of him during this arc. But the display of power from Mikazuki makes him believe he can win despite that.\n\nAs for Mikazuki himself, getting crippled worse cause him to double down on his self destructive tendencies because now he's unable to do anything at all but fight with Barbatos (no more farming for him if he can't walk) and also makes Orga want to keep pushing forward for his sake, since if they give up the fight that's the end for Mikazuki. Not to mention the fallout with Iok and Jasley effectively gives them no more options but to side with Mcgillis.\n\nThere's plenty of reasons Hashmal made everything go to shit for everyone later on.

Likewise, the male cast were just not that likable in honesty?\nI did try again later, but the Tekkaden vs everybody else stuff just was really really boring?\n\nIt was all fighting without any like, actual conflict?\n\nAs a result, there usually wasn't a lot of tension and I found a lot of the villains far more likable, and the protagonists were just really really boring as people. The acting was \"a bit too anime\", and a bit too melodramatic for me and it clashed very hard with the story they were trying to tell, which only had very basic bitch explorations of where most of the actual tension arises.\n\nAny higher questions or character exploration just felt... Well, \"we've been here before, so I guess this is for people who haven't seen that\" and most of the fights too were kinda dull beyond some brief spectacle. IBO would often focus on aesthetics and instead of letting ideas grow and swell to produce real tension, it regularly would just decapitate them (sometimes literally) and then move onto the next thing so any feeling of progression or catharsis felt very flat -- like we had the aesthetic of it, but it didn't actually happen or take place.\n\nThe mecha designs too just felt very... Adequate barring one or two really outstanding designs that felt better suited to model kits or stills rather than moving images, so the quality of the animation is genuinely all over the place barring maybe one or two fights.\n\nI don't hate the show, I just didn't finish it despite several attempts.\nI'm glad people exist who enjoy it though."}, {"id": 63, "content": "The character designs too were very kinda... If you spend any amount of time on pixiv or niconico you can spot the trend chasing, and the director jerking himself off. \"Okay this character addresses this niche, this character addresses this niche\" and there's a lot of that over say really making the characters suit the story.\n\nLike a lot of the visual design of the characters and their acting styles are clearly designed for female audiences but its all so transparent that even the people who should be into it were like, \"it feels kind of condescending to be honest?\" and it didn't have the staying-power it really needed against other work that was popular at the time since Yuri on Ice basically swept up that entire audience, and Konosuba and Re:Zero stole the more hardcore otaku crowd's attention.\n\nThe general consensus at the time was that IBO was poorly timed, and was responding to market pressures from five years before it was made. If it had come out in the right era, it probably would have really done well but there was too much of a wait between it and Unicorn and a lot of people who weren't really into UC weren't into Unicorn and it didn't make a lot of newer fans domestically.\n\nThis was also during the peak of Jojo's second revival, so all of the anime discourse was very crowded at the time.\n\nI think IBO made too many concessions to try and lure in newer fans by broadening what the marketing team thought would be appealing rather than really understanding the audience at the time. Its why it resonates really well with some groups, but its incredibly divisive with others.\n\nIf you want a really cut and dry mecha show with a big emphasis on fights over conflicts where there's lots of interesting questions asked, IBO is there for you provided you can stomach some of the cliches in the performances. If you focus more on conflicts (personal and political) and interesting answers to those questions, IBO's not really \"that show\"."}, {"id": 64, "content": ">>1 (OP)\nAkihiro and Lafter should have survived...."}, {"id": 65, "content": ">>64\n\nNo, they need to die to highlight the reality and the tragedy of the situation."}, {"id": 66, "content": ">>51\nI don't know if that's the message at all, because being a child soldier piloting Gundams seems pretty awesome to me.

The repetition is referring to the condition of life itself. The Turn A being shown is for all intents and purposes the same singular event we see in the show. Not to mention that infinite cycle includes worlds that aren't even human.\n\n>From the start to the end of a civilization, it's a little more than 10,000 years at most. The things created by humans will vanish without a trace after 100,000 years or so. In a universe that has witnessed more than ten billion years, how many worlds had gone by before this one of ours? It's like a spiral staircase that continues infintely, going around this endless circle, we'll reach the top someday. It won't be futile. To reach the top, everything is essential. There must be scenery we haven't seen.\nHumans will disappear in 100,000 years according to Lalah but the infinitely spiraling staircase refers to the entirety of life in the universe, things that are well beyond the scope of Gundam. Most likely it's a lowkey reference to Ideon, which prominently features the Buff clan and Solo ship crew being reborn on Earth at the end.\n\nThere's nothing in Light of Life that suggests that the Turn A repeatedly erases the Earth, on the contrary, the portrayal is fairly true to the show's flashback. Lalah explicitly mentions that the start to end of a civilization is 10,000 years and the physical time of Light of Life is the end of UC. It's pretty clear that the 10,000 year civilization she's referring to here is UC itself. This actually doesn't retcon the stated timeline in Turn A Gundam, which states that UC started over 10,000 years before the events of the show. That's enough evidence to firmly put Light of Life right at the end of UC and the start of CC.

A combat track should still complement the action going on, which is why something like Mizu no Hoshi is always lame whenever it shows up in a SRW game. The main issue here is that Bamco has a large selection of songs to use, but never includes enough to fit the action going on or to add more impact to special events. In that sense, I can understand that only having Fleet Battle for everything (except if you have the premium sound DLC) is getting really boring, but that doesn't make it a bad combat track and certainly not as bad as hearing Main Title starting over and over again in a single map.

Unless you're a goofball that shuffles every single music track according to the plot of the stage you're playing, most SRW tracks end up as essentially context free character battle themes. They can't work just for the moments of their own series, they have to always work no matter the stage.

In a sense, it's exactly like GaoGaiGar getting the opening as the standard combat track and another song specific to Hell and Heaven, just expanding on the idea and extending that sort of treatment to more characters.\nAlso, Mizu no Hoshi is incredibly low energy, doesn't mesh well with the scenery and doesn't fit any requirement other than \"it's a song from Zeta\".

Regardless, it was a commercial failure which is why the show was cancelled.\n\nSEED and Destiny are objectively not very good shows. The production was a trainwreck, the plot was for absolute shit, the teenage angst was aggravating for people outside of its target audience. However, it was a commercial success, the MS designs were great (to a point), the voice acting was good, the music was phenomenal, and the plot/drama/action did keep the attention of the audience. The world is replete with examples of works that are outright bad but which are still commercial successes (Fast and the Furious, Bayformers, MCU, Star Wars), and ultimately being able to make money is the overriding important factor since these are businesses and not charities.\n\nAGE's ultimate problem is that it was lacking in almost every area that matters. The MS designs are super simplistic, the characters rarely kept attention, the plot was worse than basic, even the action scenes didn't really shine outside of 2nd generation, and the writing was abysmal. Present-day Gundam had basically reached a point where it's too big to fail, meaning that even if a show is trash Bandai stands to lose more from cancelling it than from just keeping it trucking to the end (at least then it would still sell the plastic toys).

It had some issues but I think they really nailed the tone of Power Rangers.\n\nMy thought issues:\n\n\n\n1. Robo Rita says KILL quite a lot. I was a bit surprised at the blatant murder and how much she enjoys sadistic killing. I would have dialed it back just a little bit.\n\n2. Mihn or Minn or whatever however you say her name is annoying. The actress doesn't even look like Trini and she is too young to be a power ranger. She reminds me of Justin from Turbo.\n\n3. The CGI for the Megazord fight was bad. The models were REALLY stiff. This is supposed to be 2023. Not 2003. We should have CGI tech available to do a good job.\n\n4. Billy literally murdered Robo Rita. He straight up stabbed her in the back with his spears when she wasn't looking. His speaks then exited outside her chest. That seems too hardcore for Power Rangers. Also questionable decision making from Billy.\n\n5. Mihn shouldn't have become a Power Ranger so soon. They should have found a way for her to contribute in a different way. Like some \"side story\" or B-plot where she learns about forgiveness and letting go of revenge. The way its written now, Mihn is rewarded for seeking revenge by become a Ranger. Aisha should have taken up the yellow Morpher.\n\n6. The whole g4y boyfriend scene was completely and utterly random and unnecessary. There as no need to highlight their were gay. It added nothing to the plot. Not sure why the writers included it.\n\n7. Why is Jason's voice so strange? They used Kimberly's and Tommy's voice from old recordings but they changed Jason's voice.\n\n8. The fight choreography needs some work. It was a little sloppy.\n\n9. The sound effects need to be improved. It doesn't sound like the Morphed Rangers hit with any IMPACT like they did in the the old show.\n\n\n\n\nOverall on a scale of A (top) to F (bottom), I give this special an entertaining \"B\". It was solid but had some room for improvement"}, {"id": 20, "content": ">>19\nPower Rangers murdered literally hundreds of monsters."}, {"id": 21, "content": ">>19\nSorry for my spelling mistakes.

Billy just teleports behind Rita and shoves his spears through her chest."}, {"id": 23, "content": ">>19\nMinh's like 16. That's about the time the original Power Rangers became rangers.\n\nIf anyone looks too young to be a ranger, that gold one from Beast Morphers looks way younger.\n\nMinh looks like a little goblin though.

We should have CGI tech available to do a good job.\nThe stiffness was definitely intentional, to make it feel like two people in bulky cardboard costumes.

I dunno, I just don't like her face. it looks ugly.\nNot that anon but yeah I agree. Thuy Trang was a rather attractive fair-skinned Vietnamese woman. Minh looks absolutely nothing like her.

They destroy monsters all the time. Upon rewatch I GUESS capturing them lured Robo Rita out of the palace, but still sloppily done. They shoulda had it so they needed to hack Snizzard or extract the apple on his head to free them, not the thing they said not to do 5 minutes ago.\n\nAlso Billy not giving up on Zordon is odd considering this special is paying tribute to two deceased actors, feels thematically wrong to make peace with their loss while also going \"OK but I'm gonna bring this other dead guy back still\".\n\nMinh has current era Power Rangers energy where a character is cranky mad and won't listen, understandable with her circumstance but also was a bit annoying.\n\nOh yeah, as entertaining as it was to hear, Billy would not say \"come catch these hands\".\n\nAll the above things I feel are problems I have with current TV PR.\n\nThere's a lot to like though.\nVery satisfying to see Billy at the command. And Zack's charisma carries, was a true highlight.

He feels very much an Everyman Ranger, a dude that just shows up and goes, and the special shows just how capable someone like that can be.

Some Digimon perhaps, and those who didn't feel their masculinity threatened by Sailor Moon might've watched it as well.

Of course, since most of them were retarded, they assumed that anime before Eva was either those 2 or 3 they knew from cable television and that was it.

This is probably the least changed because I just really loved the way Inu never joined the team officially until the very end but had his own separate plotline through the show.

New Zealand is already a cheap place to film and ontop of that they offer film rebates for shooting there. It's very economical.\n\nThird of all it makes more sense to film original stuff because you have to pay Toei a cut of any profits when using their footage. Plus Toei can veto certain ideas and things. Disney wanted to explore the idea of making a Power Rangers cartoon. But Toei vetoed that idea. Now Hasbro and Netflix can do whatever they want with Power Rangers. Toei can't stop them.\n\nSo yes the future is going to be Western original Power Rangers going forward. Sentai is done for the most part. And it's for the best long term."}, {"id": 299, "content": ">>298\n>At best it's a 50/50 mix of Japanese and Western footage.\nthat's still cheaper than what you're suggesting."}, {"id": 300, "content": ">>125\n>It doesn't work when it's coming from a bratty 15 year old.\nwhen i was a kid i preferred seeing adults and late teens in action cartoons, like making something but with kids never made sense to me."}, {"id": 301, "content": ">>298\nYep.

Now this is obsolete because of streaming. Kids can now watch whatever they want, whenever they want. And it was already dying out long before because of cable channels solely dedicated to kids stuff.\nIf you want to relive your Saturday Morning Memories authentically, here's what I suggest you do:\n>Download and setup disquizeTV and hook it up to Plex. https://github.com/vexorian/dizquetv\n>Rip your favorite shows from streaming services. A lot of what aired back then still airs now.\n>Scavenger Youtube to find VHS recordings of commercial breaks and bumpers from your eras and embed them into disquetv.\n>Create your schedule, can be whatever you want at any time.\n>Hook up a device that attaches to your TV that supports Plex, like Roku or Amazon Fire.\n>After finishing setting everything up, you'll have a TV schedule filled with whatever you want.\nSetup took me about a half hour, but the process of downloading and ripping shows took a while. There's lots of cool things you can do with this. For instance created a 24/7 Power Rangers channel Ranger Central, with the first 700 episodes. I'm not sure how, or if it's possible, to have people \"subscribe\" to my channel and watch it themselves, but if there was a way, I'd gladly do it for the fans."}, {"id": 303, "content": ">>299\n>that's still cheaper than what you're suggesting.\nYou seriously think filming a 1 hour power ranger special costs more than adapting a 50 episode show?

None of which work for western audiences. It's too wacky.\n\nBetter to invest in original MMPr specials....than adapt 50 episodes of train sentai nonsense.

The original build of Crysis would thus be a game made for hardware that would never come to pass, that would run not that great on later hardware because it was never built to make use of the way resources are presented now. They had to reconstruct the whole game in newer builds of the engine for Crysis 1 to live up to the meme once more, and even then I think there's still supposed to be a lot of single thread code because that's just how it was made and you'd have to truly remake it from the ground up with current hardware in mind to recreate the magic.\n\nThe Remaster at least showed that Crytek's been real good about engine scalability in the decade since.

The novel has many strengths. The prose is fantastic. The production value is top-notch. The music and the atmosphere are wonderful. The swordfighting can be very cool (if a bit verbose at times). Certain sections of the novel have downright superb writing (like chapters 1 and 5). However, other areas - notably, all of the branching routes - are fraught with problems. For example, every route hastily writes out characters and plot threads either by slaughtering several major characters in the span of mere minutes or by forgetting them entirely. Without getting too deep into the weeds: in my opinion, the characters are unlikable, the philosophy is strained, and too much potential goes untapped for the convenience of the plot.\nMy biggest complaint, and most exemplary of my issues with the novel, concerns the ending of the true route. I'll speak in general terms so as to spoil as little as possible, but I'll spoiler the whole thing in case you want to go into the novel as blind as you can: after a final battle I'm not super fond of, the very last moment of the true route is a fantastic, A+, 10/10 landing that ties up the main plot with a neat little bow. It's such a phenomenal way to wrap up the story that it almost became one of my top 3 endings of all time, despite my misgivings about the VN as a whole. But rather than quit while it's ahead, the VN launches into an epilogue so terrible and so damaging to what the story was trying to accomplish that I don't think anybody should read it. Once you hit the true route's credits, just stop.\nI care a lot about the narrative in any story, so it's difficult for me to recommend, but if you can tolerate the narrative missteps, Muramasa scratches a very specific itch: alternate history power armor spectacle with solid prose and pristine presentation."}, {"id": 35, "content": ">>34\nTo clarify my phrasing on something I said about the ending: Nobody should read the epilogue specifically.

Even Kamille's cheekiness was more justified because it came from his immature but rational sense of justice. Meanwhile ZZ brats start off as self indulgent shits and mostly remain that way. The music is also lacking, like having to mute the start of every episode to not get earraped by ANIME JA NAI. Honestly the overall narrative could have worked if not for all the retarded slapstick humor and crappy characters.

Finally, it's not correct to match his ideals with who he is fighting for in the first place. Amuro fought for the EF barely knowing anything about them.

ASJ kinda laughed it off and said that Jason is the type of guy who doesn't concern himself with collecting different ranger powers. That Jason himself is a Morpher. He said gold Ranger didn't even have a Morpher. He summoned the gold Ranger power. No Morpher needed.

A big example is how Rita was dragged out until she became fodder for In Space as opposed to Bandora being re-sealed and happy with it before Zedd would’ve even stepped in.\nThere’s pros and cons to both. The pro PR had was that it really allows us to follow the characters longer and develop them more than a single season will. The con is that it leads to plots being dropped hard in order to keep going or hold onto something liked, like how Zedd and Rita ended up being jobbing space bums then disappear when they get back on top, only to “die” unceremoniously.

Hell, the one time Zedd said “fuck it” he made Magnet Brain and the world was almost disintegrated.\n\nI think that holds weight when you look at King Mondo. He was the first big bad that really seemed to get his hands dirty, and when he first blew up his notoriety was shot, leading Zedd and Rita to say “fuck it” and end his whole takeover attempt after realizing his reputation was over exaggerated. So maybe part of the reason the villains like Zedd don’t go head on is because they are aware that if something goes wrong other villains will smell blood in the water.\n\nDino Fury Zedd technically represents a prime Zedd, who would be a younger version, and that version is way more hands on, and we’ve already seen that he can manhandle two monsters and a Ranger team without his staff, and a Morphin Master with it. Rita took the gloves off in Once and Always and had to be sucker stabbed to be beaten, otherwise she was running circles around the team.

Her father was the in-charge of cyber newtype labs for Four and Rosamia (not clarified in the show, you have to read an obscure character sheet from original blu-ray box that is no longer available), so it was easy for her to use them and lovebomb Kamille, so when they die he can come crying to her for comfort. She masterfully eliminated her competition and ensured that his mother complex didn't go full retard like Char. She pulled the strings to get Reccoa off the Aragama for that Jaburo mission, she made sure that Emma would be stationed at Radish, she got Apolly killed cause she was jealous of his camaraderie with him (and on the off chance Kamille turned out to be gay). She purposefully put herself in danger with her 'I want to pilot' schtick that helped to develop a toxic 'saviour complex' in Kamille. She is the ultimate tease, who just happens to be semi-naked when Kamille is nearby and slaps him when he wants to take a look, classic push and pull tactic. She uses Shinta and Qum to play family simulator with him. She is present during the stage scene at last episode but conveniently misses her chance to kill Scirocco (we all know how that turned out). I think on a subconscious level vegetable Kamille knows this and that's why, does a cry for help to Judau. Final nail in the coffin is the 'happy' beach scene at the end of ZZ. All this scheming has finally concluded with her winning, making herself be the whole world for him. Poor boy is fucked for life.

This is the quickest way to get around for some suits, however for others, half-dashing and sprinting until you run out of boost is quicker.

I stopped \"Gundam\" 20 years ago with \"Turn A Gundam\" (1999). You may say that \"Gundam G no Reconguista\" (2014) is Gundam because it has the word \"Gundam,\" but it's not. \"Gundam\" is a war story, but \"G no Reconguista\" is not a war story.\n\n>If I had been stuck in \"Gundam\" for the past 20 years, I would not have been able to create a work like \"G no Reconguista. But if someone had asked me, \"Aren't there mobile suits like in \"Gundam,\" I would have said, \"Yes, there are. But it's totally different from \"Gundam\".\n\n>So, what is the difference? I met fans who only knew about \"G no Reconguista\" while I was working on this project. They said, \"It was fun to create a world like that. It was amazing. But it's also a terribly hard story.\" Even junior high school students would say that, but Gundam fans don't realize that.\n\n>G Reconguista\" is a work in which the human race once went to the point of near extinction and was restored. Gundam\" depicts the history before that as a war story.\n\n>That is why Gundam fans say, \"I couldn't understand the first part of 'G no Reconguista' at all, so I stopped watching it. I want to say, \"If you see it, you'll understand,\" but I can't say it properly because I think I'm not very good at directing a film that is seen in the same way as \"Gundam\". There is a part of me that is prepared to accept the fact that it may not be evaluated separately from \"Gundam\".\n\n>Even so, if I don't abandon \"Gundam,\" I will continue to make the same kind of work for a long time. There are very few people who can die by continuing to make the same work, and the only person who could die well in that sense would be Tadao Saito of \"Golgo 13\".

That kind of conceit existed in the case of \"Mobile Suit Gundam,\" but there was also the fact that it was cancelled.\n\n>But the reason it broke through and was made into a movie was because of the overwhelming support of the fans.

When I actually dropped I turned immediately so I wasn't facing the ground because it scared me to look at the impending surface so I turned to face the sky and saw enemy fighter jets above me and started firing at them. I eventually turned to face the surface and propel myself with jets towards my objective, seeing a cacophony of air combat all around me. I watched a massive attack ship level an ancient capital building below me and shortly after be taken to the ground by missiles. I landed my mech suit in a nearly completely destroyed building that still had its leveled floors and came out dressed in green combat gear with a rifle that was in my cockpit with a skimask and goggles. I met up with some other soldiers of my faction who had the enemy prince locked down in a room, who shortly surrendered.

But i guess after what he had to go thru before, he deserves a bit of a break.\nThen in episode 4 i think, they introduce the car, and i was flabbergasted. I thought kamen rider was all about dudes riding their bikes. Not to say i dont like it, i was just surprised. And then theres an episode after that where kotaro is like, nah man, you are the coolest super car ever, basically throwing battle hopper, or acrobatter now rather, under the bus, and im like, okay they are trying too hard here. Maybe they wanted more toys to sell.\nLater kotaro gets a new buddy friend, joe, and hes aight, he does his thing, but then, on the very episode where they cement their kyoudai-ness, they had the balls to tease shadow moon, once his brother, coming back from the dead. Which im still baffled they did it. I mean yeah, hes hype, and it was cool seeing him again, he gets two swords now, but he showed up like twice in the whole season.\nSpeaking of shadow moon, kinda sucks kotaro never mentioned either his girlfriend or his sister in the entire thing, they are probably still living in the US, and they might not even know if hes alive or not.\nSo yeah, plenty of weird stuff in this one, but i still got some enjoyment out of it. The music is still good. I definently wasnt expecting two whole new forms that kotaro can switch to whenever, but i do like how robo rider moves, the suit actor conveys the robotic motion well. Gatezone was cool looking. Its also nice kotaro finally got to meet all his rider senpais, before the big finish.\nAll in all, although it started a bit weird, with some surprises in the way, i still enjoyed it.\nI am now basically done with showa.

Beyond that it returns to more standard MS build for practical reasons, especially the normal hands. At the same time that allows for adding the back unit, which increases processing power and thus psycommu effectiveness\n>Psycho Mk-III -> Mk-IV\nIt's not even mentioned anywhere the Mk-IV takes anything from the Mk-III. At most, it took the notion that 40m tall Gundam isn't practical and it needs to be miniaturized. (Gundam Mk-V is also an attempt at miniaturizing the Psycho Mk-II but with a different approach and much larger funding than a Titan remnant band.) Add that relegating psycommu to the external weaponry as well as what amounts to prototype psychoframe and there's just no point in making it bigger. It's just a weapon platform for testing the new technology.\n> Varguil -> Sazabi\nfirst off the pic gives the wrong idea with the context of the other two\nBeyond that i honestly have no idea what you mean with it, it very clearly serves as an early test machine for some concepts that would lead to Sazabi's final deployment form. In particular the funnel weaponry, as this is a different way of equipping them onto the machine than the Qubeley lineage and so on. You can still clearly see the link between them though as its funnels are much more similar to the earlier Qubeley funnels than ones used by Sazabi and Jagd Doga.\nOne thing I will admit I do not like about the varguil are the fuel tanks. I get they wanted to differentiate the silhouettes but attaching them to the binders just isn't smart."}, {"id": 313, "content": ">throw a 10 roll at the Sisquiede\n>get it\nNice"}, {"id": 314, "content": "the networking in this game is absolute dogshit\nsome of the worst I've EVER seen\nac cannot come fast enough"}, {"id": 315, "content": ">>314\nShut up fotm faggot."}, {"id": 316, "content": ">>315\n>fromsoft\n>good netcode\n*frontstabs you*\nNothing personal chosen undead"}, {"id": 317, "content": ">>291\nThank you!

GP02 (ASR) as a 550 general, still retaining Flap Booster of course\n>>312\n>Geymalk -> Dag Doll\nIt's funnels work nothing like the ones on the Geymalk. The \"practical reasons\" for moving back to standard manipulators falls flat since the mittens didn't hamper the Geymalk's use at all, being able to equip a strong custom beam saber and allowing it even greater firepower than a conventional beam rifle. The argument for practicality COULD be made if the Dag Doll made use of standard issue weaponry, bolstering it's use case in diminished supply lines, however it's existence as a high tech high cost unit alongside the use of TWO custom built advanced weapon systems makes this null. The size is an issue for inheritance as the back unit is not connected at all times. If it was larger and housed a stronger reactor, more like the unit it supposedly branched off, then this workaround wouldn't have to be used at all.\n>Psycho Mk-III -> Mk-IV\nThe Mk. III is the Mk. IV's predecessor by lineage, to take nothing from it would be inane. And yet, that's exactly what we see. The whole point of the Psycho Gundam line is to have absurd power projection, striking terror into their enemies and decimating them with the sheer amount of fire they can bring to bare. Being larger than life is their purpose, their size is what makes them Psycho Gundams. Even when they are slightly miniaturized for mass production, they tower over conventional mobile suits and retain an ungodly beam output for a \"mass production\" machine. In this way, the Geymalk is an even better Psycho Mk. IV than the real Psycho Mk. IV, which retains none of these features. Psycommu weaponry isn't even part of the Psycho Mk. IV's native equipment, only one of three units had them retrofitted onto the design."}, {"id": 320, "content": ">>316\nHe didn't said Fromsoft, he said flavor of the month.

Very nice.\n>>312\n> Varguil -> Sazabi\nThe main issue is that their geometry is so surface level similar and the funnel mountings raise an issue of continuity. The main flaw of the Jadg Doga's funnel system is that, while effective and cheap enough to be discarded in the middle of battle, they HAVE to be discarded in the middle of battle due to a lack of dedicated funnel racks. The Sazabi is the one to actually have this fixed, but we're also supposed to believe that years earlier this solution was implemented and then just... taken out for the Jagd? Only to be put back in again for the Sazabi? My main issue with the Varguil doesn't actually have to do with that though, that's just a side tangent since you brought up the funnel racks. The real issue is that the geometry is so surface level similar. Why would the Varguil look to similar to the Sazabi at a glance if it's merely a tech test? Surely if you're just there to test the various systems we'd later have on the actual Sazabi then it would focus it's design on those systems instead of just aping the finished product. You test by seeing what doesn't work at extreams and dialing back from there, not ramping it up. Even Gundam understands this, you need only look at the evolution of the Hyper Mega Launcher over the eras. One reason that you would make the geometry similar is so that you can reuse parts on the finished product, however this is an issue with size YET AGAIN because it means those parts MUST be newly manufactured for the Sazabi rather than reused from the Varguil's manufacturing run"}, {"id": 323, "content": "Alright Sissykiddies, new banner is soon dropping.

You can have a numbered front mission and a separate game which is a scenario creator. or have it be a feature in a numbered entry. I just know that personally the front mission games I’ve played, there are a handful of really good levels that impress me I enjoy replaying over and over. There are a lot of okay levels, and then there are a decent amount of levels I really dislike.

The load out stuff and customization I can take it or leave it. it’s not armored core. there is a fair amount of customization but again the meat of the game and I think it’s main appeal if you pick it over any other mech game is in its grid based strategy. Any other component of the game is done better by other mech games. Not trying to be a dick.

According to them, they claimed there was more of a connection between Morgan Bernard and Walter Feng. This is what I was told by LegaiaRules/Angelo Pineda on the matter (I'll begin by quoting from his interview on Path of Valor; link will be provided below):\n\n\"We did state our FM5 work was edited heavily to cater to fans OUTSIDE of Japan (that means ourselves, as we had no prior knowledge of the expanded universe during the localization and thus, no idea how to grasp some of the context). From our interview with the Path of Valour in 2009 (you can find where the link is):\n\n\"Lastly, the final major obstacle during the translation and editing stages was Front Mission continuity itself. Having been billed as the 'grand conclusion' during the Japanese release back in December 29, 2005, the main challenge was how to convey it. As the series was not properly marketed and introduced overseas, many overseas fans don’t really understand what Front Mission is. This posed a serious challenge in that Front Mission 5 assumes the player has already gone through the previous games (First, 2, 3, and 4). A lot of the plot connection dialogue was to the point in that the game expected you to know what those links were. Obviously, we couldn’t do the localization this way so we brainstormed how to tackle these hundreds of connections. In the end, we found that the middle ground was the best approach. Tailoring the continuity elements to those with some experience was easier to deal with than those with none or those with the whole package.\"\n\nInterview: https://web.archive.org/web/20100105152922/https://valour.ru/fm5-interview-eng"}, {"id": 88, "content": ">>86\n>>87\n\n\"An addendum to what I said back in 2009 I would also add, in retrospect, is that the text in part also assumed the said player had dived into the expanded universe as well. There are a fair number of context we didn't initially understand was there, but actually was referring to something only found in the expanded universe. A good portion of it pertained to Walter, such as details of his childhood at Home 47 early on in the game. Those details weren't edited too much as we assumed it was just backstory talk.\n\nWhen it came to Walter and Morgan however, that was a whole different story. Like the first time he officially shows up, Morgan talks Walter as if he was an old acquaintance of his. Subsequently, Hector asks Walter how the hell he knows the terrorist because even he's surprised by this. This whole 'I know you' thing continues very much into the end of FM5, and effectively leads to the closure of this particular sub-plot in the main storyline. As we couldn't understand the context of all this back then, our editors rewrote it as Morgan knows of Walter in a fame kind of way 'I know you because of your heroics' thing. Nothing more, nothing less.\n\nAnd before you ask, no we don't have plans to release a new patch with the original FM5 script. It's an issue of everyone OUTSIDE of Japan not having access to all FM games, let alone the FM expanded universe. There's no point in doing that if the fans can't fully understand the context of it all.\""}, {"id": 89, "content": ">>86\n>>87\n>>88\n\nThen they claimed there's a manga called \"Front Mission 0\" that introduces on that connection.

Metaphorically speaking, he is a conspiratorial figure in this work, which is based on a somewhat complicated plot, and he is a conspicuous hatemonger, which makes the story easier to understand even for children, the main target audience.\nHis over-the-top reactions have led some viewers to treat him as a joke character, while others seriously dislike him, making him a divisive figure.\n\n>However, to be honest, he was originally a powerless citizen who was frightened by threats, and because of that, he had too much unconditional faith in those who protected him from the tyranny of Bugnarok, especially in Racles, who he's familiar with, and in the Hastie royal family.

Originally, the movement of the mind to find the opposite side of both sides, or common sense, would have deterred this, but it is not difficult to imagine that it was difficult to work under the emergency conditions caused by the invasion of Bugnarok, and this seems to have led to the escalation of the view of right and wrong mentioned above.\n\n>In episode 8, the outcome of the dueling trials, in which Racles won and Gira lost, fortunately or unfortunately matched the image of Goroge's view of good and evil, and he and the rest of the people rejoiced in their innocence...."}, {"id": 439, "content": "Why does DekaMaster just stop showing up after Tetsu is introduced?

He seems to have been content to just be a ceremonial warrior up until the last few episodes, but is broken out of his mindset by a mix of Dianna ordering him to hand over the Turn X since she recognizes his underlying personality will inevitably become violent and that it's too strong a weapon in the hands of someone like Gym and immediately afterwards, Guin offering him an out in the form of an alliance, with an intent to steal Moonrace tech and go to Earth.\n\nOnce that does happen though, his belief that war is good strengthens because the Amerians are much more ambitious than the pacified people of the Moonrace he's been part of up until that point. A society that has no external enemies and is too rigid and small to have any internal conflict, since much of the populous is in cryostasis at any given time and the rest are denied any desire to fight by the fragility of their Moon habitat. The Moonrace has been much the same for thousands of years since the Dark History, exemplified in the people literally being frozen, while the Earth based nations have grown and changed over the course of that time period. Which he views as being because of conflict, and that the instinct to fight is the root of an ambition to grow, culturally, technologically etc.\n\nAt which point he almost immediately eclipses Guin's control and decides that he wants to reset the Earth's civilization again and form a new society in his own image.

It's not because their motivation is \"weak\" or too petty, Rau le Creuset's motivation is identical, and people rave about him.

By the end of the first 12 episodes of Gundam X, the Frost Brothers have had something like 5 opportunities to blow up the Freiden crew, and bungled all of them. They are literally reduced to b tier side villains, as our heroes fight the insane colonel from space. The show runners wisely back off from showing the Brothers for a while, but even when they reappear, it's just them manipulating one villain or another, and then shooting them in the back of the head. By the time they make their big reveal to the heroes, which has already been spoiled to the audience, they come across as nothing more then weak, pathetic characters, who got this far by happenstance.\n\nGym, meanwhile, doesn't have any of these issues. He does his own dirty work, kills multiple people in a setting where this is rare, takes over his alliance with Guin and immediately starts running the show. This guy is serious business and not to be trifled with. His motivation is very strong and speaks to something primal, Spangler or Mishima esque, as >>40 goes over, but most importantly, the show never treats him like a dunce.

And the archive for /m/ alone isn't even complete, since it only goes back to 2009 or so and has gaps due to data failures over the years. You'll find plenty more on /a/ I'm sure, even without ever going there, and more again on sites beyond 4chan.\n\nOf course, asking for a set number of people on an anonymous image board is probably a fool's errand in the first place since you can literally just go \"it's just one guy\" and no-one can prove or disprove you due to the nature of the board. It's still at least one guy though, and you made a blanket statement amounting to \"It doesn't exist\", so even one person disproves your point anyway.

Four slots for holding weaponry–one in each hand and two on the back\n>“The average movement speed across the game is somewhere between Armored Core 3 and Armored Core 5,” he replies. “But Armored Core VI has been developed to bolster the changes of tempo and combat. With instantaneous bursts of speed and sudden changes of tempo, combat can often reach the dizzying heights of say, Armored Core 4.”\n>What kind of weapons are we talking about? Bazookas, gatling guns, split missiles, plasma rifles, and all the perennial favorites. There are a bunch of new close-range weapons, too. “One aspect we focused on in Armored Core VI is melee weapons, exclusively equipped to the left hand,” Yamamura continues. “These can include a cluster bomb thrower, a chainsaw or pulse blade, lances, and other more idiosyncratic weapons. Since the main weapons are firearms, the melee weapons are more focused on that strength of individuality.”\n>Assault Boost is an offensive action that helps close the gap between enemies and lets you quickly go from long distance to close range,” Yamamura tells us. It will also provide some incredible chain abilities when fighting, as he describes vividly: “Say you activate Assault Boost to make your approach while using machine gun fire and a missile salvo to stagger the enemy, then use your pulse blade to score a direct melee hit once you’re up close"}, {"id": 207, "content": ">>204\nthe pic leaks, put them side by side and they match up 1 to 1 without the watermark. still too early to say on the text leaks because anything not souls looks souls to normalfags that haven't touched AC once in their life"}, {"id": 208, "content": ">>193\nthat's a Daemon X Machina for sure"}, {"id": 209, "content": ">>155\n>>159\nit feels like they poached the best parts of Hawken's aesthetic for the environmental art"}, {"id": 210, "content": ">>201\n\"Since FA\" is just gen5, and they were just renamed extension slots in the first place.

I recall a game studio where so many of its original staff moved on over time that they ended up with a studio that just lacked the vision necessary for one of their best IP.\nIf they had all the time in the world to try I'm sure they could do it, but when there are deadlines something you just have to run with what you can come up with to turn a profit while you wait for someone with the necessary vision and leadership to come along.\nIt's actually kinda strange how those visionaries sometimes get bored of making something highly successful and go on to make other things.

Not too good, not too bad. Just mid.\nHonestly this. I liked it in the beginning but the pacing just feels rushed. I don't like Prospera as an antagonist, she's basically a parody of the archetype's image that fans have of Char (aka master manipulator with over several dozen backup keikaku in storage) and Suletta herself has failed to endear me because she relies too much on being a moe blob to be likable as opposed to Miorine who's constantly growing and thriving as a person in an unfamiliar world that basically wants to kick her to the side.\n\nSpeaking of, most of the side cast themselves are completely forgettable too, Nika's the only one worth a damn from Earth House because of her unique situation compared to its other members. There's also Guel whose character arc so far is great and Elan 5 who's a joy to behold. Shaddiq is a disappointment though because he's just a smug shit from start to finish.\n\nThe battles themselves aren't even great either. It always just ends with the Aerial kicking the ass of anyone who sufficiently pisses it off which is boring. MC Gundams overpowering the opposition through tech advantage isn't new, but more often than not there were always pilots around who could keep up with said Gundam through nothing but sheer skill like for example Char himself when he kept up with Amuro in inferior suits like the Zaku II. G-Witch has so far had none of that because obviously there shouldn't be someone capable of threatening our darling little first female MC.\n\nStory wise, there's also the fact that Prospera's main plan, Quiet Zero, feels so divorced from the actual main politics of the series which is the Earth/Space people tensions. Usually Gundam finds a way to tie in the Newtype-esque stuff with the politics of the setting as part of its main themes, but G-Witch has yet to do just that. The Earth/Space people stuff is little more than just background noise for the lack of a better term."}, {"id": 44, "content": ">>43\n>Story wise, there's also the fact that Prospera's main plan, Quiet Zero\nDid you even watch the past few episodes?

Or if she does, the anime never shows it.\n\nAerial fights by using the Gund-Bits, which are remote controlled funnels, while either standing still or at best flying around. It very rarely uses pistols and almost never engages in close combat. But then the anime also confirmed that the Bits as well as all permet score thingymajigs are controlled by Aerial's AI/Eri. Which means...what is Suletta even doing inside the cockpit? She's just steering Aerial around like a bumper car?\n\nThe minimum I expect from a mecha anime protag is for them to be a decent pilot. Since Suletta never uses a mobile suit aside from Aerial and she pretty much never uses any other weapons other than the Bits, it just feels like Aerial is the one doing all the fighting while she's just sitting there steering it around and giving some vocal commands at best.\n\nI see no proof in the anime that Suletta is a good pilot, she just happens to have a super high-tech suit with a hyper-developed AI that basically does it all for her.

In my heart, I wanted to do robot stuff, not just Gundam, so I really wanted to do it.\n>However, it was decided that the AGE project would take precedence, and Iron-Blooded was put on hiatus for a while. Since the beginning was like that, I thought that the project itself had disappeared, but as soon as I was the director of 2013's \"A Certain Scientific Railgun S\", I received an offer again. Decided to restart.

Judau becomes first newtype (don't ask me what this means) and leaves a msg to the Earthnoids and leaves for Mars. The story starts out similar to ZZ. Scirocco is dead and EFF becoming pro-AEUG with Haman aiming for Earth. Bright and Emma (she isn't dead) were able to secure a place in Shangria to do repairs. Camille is taken to a hospital. Judau is apparently a bad kid, who is part of a bike gang called Gigaa. Judau successfully stole Zeta after fighting Bright and Emma then Haman's independent force Manivaring entered the colony. First, Judau agrees to destroy Ahgama after talking with Manivaring. However, Fa and Emma convinces him and he ends up protecting Ahgama. Anways it becomes Judau in Zeta vs Manivaring inside the colony with Emma piloting Mk II as well. Roux shows up from La Vie En Rose and Elbow Smash shows up. Elbow is an AE technician. Oh ya, members of Gigaa joins Ahgama crew.\n\nApparently Gigaa and Ahgama crew don't like each other. Emma might die (don't ask me). Haman and Bright met or got close enough to have a dialog. Bright rejects Haman's offer about agreeing to the Zabi family's return. Judau kicks all the weak members of the Ahgama crew to La Vien Rose and now Gigaa controls Ahgama. Next is a plan to retake Shangria. Apparently Bright and Ahgama are successful at the retake. Behind the scenes Char helped out with this as his last salute to the crews of Ahgama.

The EF official tells him, \"Char is going to monitor Haman.\" in response to Bright's displeasure about giving Haman Side 3. Judau becomes pissed and punched the EF official. Judau is jailed. Amuro, Hayato, Beltochika came up a plan to rescue Judau and do so. From them, they hear Camille is at Hong Kong (doing something. sorry the kanji is too blurry). Haman laughed at Bright and Judau's debacle. Ok, Haman Kahn's dictatorship started and she began to purge any that resisted. She also worked on a plan to take over Earth. Judau and Roux infiltrates the colony and is suprised at the fact they don't feel Char's presence. They only feel Haman's dictatorship. Judau recognizes that Haman is going after Earth. So he decides to kidnap Mineva but fails. Haman's force centering around Axis heads toward Earth.\n\n>EFF panicking asks for any help. It says that Fa might become the next Emma (Fa bitchslap!). It also says that Char hasn't killed Haman because he was too busy commanding a force responsible for assassinating all of Earth Federation high officials. After the EF government passes a legislature giving a go sign for Space Migration, Char joins Haman's force. Mineva is happy about Char's return. Char kills Haman when her force was about to attack Earth. During this Bright rescues Mineva. In the last battle, the whole world sees Judau's NT thingy. Judau apparently says something like \"being selfish won't free the people and Char's way is selfish too\". Char agreed to what Judau said and he actually has a long quote here (which I don't feel like translating, something like people being able to understand each other and able to conquer space, blah blah blah).

There's a bit of honest validity and intent in his actions and there's a bit of deranged selfishness too. He can be both an unstable lunatic and a tragic soul, and has rather explicitly been shown to be both. I wouldn't worry too much about them going the Horobi route anyway since he's already been very overt about how he embraced the horrible path he took.

As far as I remember Buffa hasn't even killed anyone.\n\n>>291\nHis actions definitely aren't the most \"right\" possible option, no doubt, but the thing is you said you want the narrative to admit he's \"just an unstable lunatic who's not remotely doing the right thing\", which is literally incorrect.

The Graham from Gundam 00 S1 to the Graham from 00 Trailblazer are two very different characters. Season 1 Graham only really lived for the thrill of piloting (legit his official backstory for becoming a pilot is because he just wanted to fly), always living on the edge and doing reckless stunts just because he could because he knew he was badass and wanted people to know that. Season 2 Graham is what happens when you take those traits and then make them worse as Graham becomes obsessed with defeating Setsuna to restore his wounded pride, but interacting with him during their final fight ends up opening his eyes to the error of his ways and causes Graham to reform.\n\nBy Trailblazer, Graham is essentially a new man. He has the same basic personality quirks as the Season 1 version, being a naturally charming ham who steals whatever scenes he's in, but with the added wisdom he gained at the end of Season 2. This results in a Graham who longer cares about proving his worth, he only seeks to protect those around him as dutiful soldier should which is why his sacrifice during the movie is so effective as the culmination of his character arc. How anyone could come to the conclusion that his arc is a waste of time genuinely did not pay attention or did not watch the show and try to understand its themes at all.\n\n>what was the point in killing off Neil other than shock value?\nThe point of killing off Neil was to show how his desire for revenge consumed him.

Haman had the backing of Side 3 and even the Earth Federation to a lesser degree; the old politicians delight at the idea of mass human cullings. The Titans had the full authority of the federation and the were specifically given the authority to commandeer any federation resources regardless of rank.

This is most obvious with the finale of SEED, everyone's afraid to deny Patrick Zala but once someone stands up and shoots him dead they're all ready to throw down arms and follow the peaceful faction. Most of the conflict in CE is kickstarted by Blue Cosmos and Logos, tiny organizations run by Natural elites, riling up both sides and committing terrorism and acts of war. They do have some counterparts like the ZAFT radicals who tried to Break the World but that just furthers my point that it's a handful of people trying to get the rest of the world to start fighting AND they work behind the scenes to escalate the violence. The EA's nuclear attacks are even heavily influenced by Blue Cosmos, meaning it's a small group of people handing down orders to obedient dogs. Also, Gil and ZAFT in Destiny didn't plan on genociding all naturals, authoritarian yes, but not genocide. It's usually the EA that's more genocidal against the much smaller Coordinator population.

There's nothing in CE remotely as insane and brutal as Zeon. And Gihren planned to kill more after Zeon won the war. We don't know how many more but he says it's easier to manage a small number of people and says humanity needs to be cleansed. Even EA and Zaft have reasons like terrorist attacks by radicals for starting their wars, Zeon just went in cold and everyone was on board with non-stop mass killing. It wasn't even like they were just firing a couple nukes from a distance, although they also used those, they had fleets firing on colonies and squads of Zakus going into colonies to deploy skin melting gas on screaming civilians.

So the Gundam is heavily related but isn't the direct prototype of the GM, they had their own prototypes that preceded actual mass production, so who knows if they had learning computers or not.

The early batch or first run were said to be made at Jaburo for ground combat, probably the ones we see being used at Jaburo, which means they can't be the Type E which were made at Luna II.

These will include most traditionally sustained damage weapons like gatling guns as well as missiles, shotguns etc. Most of the traditionally 'problem' weapons for damage balance will be repurposed for causing stagger instead of inflicting damage. There will also be several melee weapons specifically designed to stagger in melee range\nThose that specialize in capitalizing on a stagger.

Earlier Godzillas are just big monsters that can be wounded and made to bleed and die. Other versions are basically the same, just far more powerful. And other versions still are basically unstoppable eldritch horrors. Godzilla is nuclear powered, having achieved his monstrous form by atomic mutation. In the original movies (1954 - 1975), he was just really tough, but pretty much every series since then has given him some form of healing factor. Not Wolverine/Deadpool level (regrowing limbs, etc), but enough to keep him safe in most fights.\n\nThe Godzilla shown in Godzilla vs. MMPR is kind of a general mish-mash of various incarnations, but is overall based on the '90s version (pic related), which is probably the best version to team up with the Rangers. Getting outright impaled by the Power Sword would be a pretty severe blow for any Godzilla, really.

I thought it would be good if, maybe, I could highlight the sensuous elements… to the point that you’d think, “Could Char and Amuro be gay?” I think fiction writing is, more than anything… like I just said, about conveying that sensuality, having the audience pick up on it… if they can’t, that’s no good.”\nSource: Char’s Counterattack Fan Club Book, Yoshiyuki Tomino Interview, 11/26/1993\n\n“But as the battle reaches its climax, Char discards his inner mask to bare his true face. Saying: “You’re worthy of being my rival!”, he abandons his position as general of an entire army in order to pursue his foe… Amuro himself had been Char’s genuine motive. He enters their final battle not as the son of Zeon Deikun or the leader of Neo Zeon but as Char Aznable the man, at long last. To Char, Amuro is a rival with whom he feels compelled to settle the score.

Chapter 7 is his movie that came out afterwards and then after that is chapter 8 which is about some monster called Desastro which Orb and X fight off but we never see anything about it and Tsuburaya has never bothered to mention Desastro since then and after that is Ultra Fight Orb which is a web special which started Sakamoto's new series of Ultra Fight stuff which is a bunch of fanservice stuff that's steadily gotten worse over time and no one's said shit about what Chapter 10 is other than it's Juggler stalking Gai some more for whatever reason and we have no idea where that takes place in comparison to Ultraman Z since Juggler's there and never talks about Gai (he talks about Dyna more than Gai of all fucking things despite being so obsessed with him) and it's still kinda vague if Orb is actually a 100% good guy or a decent guy who's fine with doing evil shit if the Ring tells him to given everything he's done on-screen has been a mission from the Ring."}, {"id": 355, "content": ">>353\nIt's like Kobayashi just gave up and said \"fuck it\"."}, {"id": 356, "content": ">>355\nKobayashi wrote Ryuki with alot of in-universe rules that make no sense at all.

Every time I find something that inspires me its always some below 200 post, and the stuff in the 500's is always some \"look how I painted this one piece(shield, funnel, etc)\" that doesn't deserve even a quarter of those upvotes.\n\nMaybe people finally caught on that its total BS what gets upvoted. \"wow you painted some stripes on a shield? 1000 upvotes!\". But when you see a fully painted build with decals and mods it gets no attention and sits at sub 100. I won't even go into what qualifies as \"weathering\" there, I'm the guy defending any sort of weathering that shows promise here but even I can't defend the reddit weathering that's either dunked into a toilet or just black smeared on EVERY edge in copious amounts but somehow manages to get 500-1500 upvotes. Really boggles my mind about the disparity of attention given there and it seems like people(bots?) are getting worse in their judgement. For example todays highest # post is some diorama with 1.9k where the rx78 looks like its literally been dunked in a toilet, not a single seam line cemented, mold lines, they didn't bother to 'weather' the piping on the zaku or the arm/leg joints, and overall battle damage that should have totaled all those suits 10 times over put on a basic woodlands scenic grass and gravel base.

While at first glace it does look really cool, I can't help but see some glaring flaws the longer I look at it. For example look at the Zaku's leg piping and hands, they are squeaky clean and the piping still has the nub uncleaned. The joints have random paint slathered on a section and the rest of it looks perfectly clean. The general weathering for all the machines is WAY too much, like they have been sitting to rust for decades, which especially doesn't make sense for the gundam as its made of a much tougher material than the zaku's. Another thing to note is how uniform the weathering is, the head should not have the same amount of weathering as the legs or arms. Proper weathering should have a light coat throughout the whole machine, but a heavier coat at areas where contact would be made such as the arms, knees, feet, and shoulders. Now on to the battle damage, the weapons shown in the gundam universe aren't meant to scratch the armor, they are made to go through it. The bullet patterns are much too uniform in their line formation. Something like a cluster of bullets or a swaying(not uniform) line would be more believable. Another thing is how there is slash marks on the machines feet that make zero sense, and overall the amount of slash marks without going through the armor is way too high, less is more.\n\nOther nitpicks are the guy cemented ZERO seams and the base of the diorama has no impact from the mobile suits trashing around on it.

They retconned (or probably forgotten) the series setting.\n\nIn Gokaiger 2011 website, Gekiranger, Liveman, Hurricaneger, JAKQ were a 5 people team since Day 1. This error was probably because the Gokaiger staff don't know about the prior series setting (citing Zenkaiger Official Complete Works), and they just used old merchandising material for world-building.\n\nYou can take this like \"Goranger is the first Sentai or not\". Since Flashman (1986), Kodansha-related magazines treat Battle Fever as the first Sentai meanwhile non-related Kodansha magazines treat Goranger as the first Sentai. You can see that between 1986-1999, Toei used both system at the same time, until year 2000, where Timeranger made official that Goranger was the first Sentai. It's was a discussion theme for 13 years.\n\nProbably, Gokaiger system is the same, they now recognize that Gold Mode was an errata, but Gokaiger is too popular, so they can't make like this don't happen as the \"Goranger controversia\". Who knows, in the next annyversary they can reveal a new classification system and end this matter.\n\nFor now, both system (Gokaiger and Zenkaiger) are named \"Tsuika Senshi\". In some sites, Gokaiger system is called \"Gokaiger no Tsuika Senshi\" (Sixth Rangers from Gokaiger) and Zengaiker system is called \"Zen Tsuika Senshi\" (All Sixth Rangers), but Toei and Bandai just call both system as Tsuika Senshi."}, {"id": 232, "content": ">>221\n>shinobi in 2023\nHoly fuck"}, {"id": 233, "content": ">>231\nAnd the Dragonranger is the first \"regular\" additional ranger, but it's technically just an arbitrary distinction.

It's simply cleaner to start at Dragonranger than his predecessors since they're either one off characters or were exceptional one off, ad hoc creations.

At the time of the action of Schwarzesmarken, the GDR was actually isolated from the USSR and Yugoslavia, Poland and other countries of the Warsaw bloc had already been destroyed. Thus, East Germany automatically becomes dependent on the still untouched Western Europe. The politicians and military in Berlin would hardly have objected to the necessary rapprochement - communist ideology can be repurposed for any state task, China guarantees - if the Stasi tries to seize power under such conditions, the Party and the Army will destroy them more thoroughly than angry citizens.\n>This is the problem, the author not only inflated the STAZI tropes to an insane level, but also spit on the impact of the \"butterfly effect\" on historical events, and also spit on the geopolitics of a particular moment.\n>It's funny to say, but communist Germany, even having lost everything, manages to exist in the 2000s.

The Japanese episodes are often unusable, for a variety of reasons. But every now and then, they come up something you just love. Maybe it's an entire story, or maybe it's just a plot point, or a character. You grab it, build on it, and make it your own. Every story is a concoction of the writer's experiences, sifted and processed. Power Rangers was no different. So, sure I love my own stories, but I recognize when something else works too.\n\n>And by the way, I worked crazy hours back then. If I could find a story I love, I'd just use it and move on. It made life much easier. And if everyone in the room can SEE the story, and everyone likes it, then the debate is abbreviated. Choosing which stories to use and which not to involves judging which will fit into the season arc, and which can be made to fit with some changes. It's an art unto itself. Of course, if there lots of footage, and the footage is plot-heavy, then you're kind of in a corner."}, {"id": 3, "content": ">>2\nhttps://popgeeks.com/forums/threads/what-is-the-process-of-working-stock-footage-into-an-episode.65668/\nQ: What is the process of working stock footage into an episode?\n\n>There's only one real rule... you have to use the footage! Why? Because you can't afford to shoot the whole episode, AND because so much of it is really terrific. After that one rule, you make the rest up.\n\n>I know you are all thinking that we do something magical to make it all work together. But the truth is that if you were sitting there with us in our meetings, and then sitting on my shoulder as I wrote, you would see that there's nothing revolutionary going on. In fact, sometimes it's hard to stay awake.\n\n>You look at the Japanese episode, you see what footage you can use. That footage is pulled out and put onto a separate file, so that you can easily look at it during the writing. Jackie and I kick around ideas, coming up with a few we like. I talk with Jonathan about them, we agree on a direction.\n\n>We write an outline. The outline includes the footage (which we underline to delineate it from footage we have to shoot) so that everyone who reads the outline can see our plan. The outline is shaped a bit by other opinions, and then we write it.\n\n>Jackie and I would review each other's work, and then pass it to others. The opinions come in. We would rarely toss a whole script (unless it came from an outside writer). We make adjustments, then go to the first draft.\n\n>As various departments read the story, then come up with practical concerns (too many locations, too many extras, etc), and the script is adjusted for a second draft. The final read through happens at the production meeting, where all the departments weigh in and discuss with the director what they are planning. After the meeting, the final tweaks are put into the script, are a week later we're shooting it.\n\n>It's a very logical process. No magic, just the shear will power of many people moving the train forward."}, {"id": 4, "content": ">>2\nhttps://popgeeks.com/forums/threads/did-you-write-a-new-ending.65418/\nQ: Did you write a new ending? (for RPM)\nI'd heard that the original plan was for Dillon to be Venjix's final body in secret. -the episode would be the missing 'RANGER BLACK'.\nIf you had to write a 'RANGER BLACK', what would have happened?\n\n>There's no one ending...\n\n>How to end this season was difficult for lots of reasons, not the least of which was choosing a story. Remember that when Eddie G (the original Exec Prod) left, two of the show's writers left with him. Jackie Marchand (the only veteran of PR) had left months before, which left only myself and John Tellegen. I don't understand all of the motivations, but clearly John was unhappy at how the whole situation developed, so we weren't really in sync.\n\n>So, I walk into this mess and have to do the work of several people without the advantage of time, pre-production, studying the Japanese footage, etc. I had to hit the ground running, since the production in New Zealand needed scripts to shoot. So you see, the circumstances dictated that I moved forward so quickly that there was no time to stop and reflect thoroughly on how everything was evolving. Would there be enough material to make an ending? Yes. After all the years I had done this, I knew which instincts to trust, and this one was telling me that there was plenty.\n\n>As far as the specific ending, when I first arrived in New Zealand, a couple of the actors had offered to tell me Eddie's story plans. That was kind, but I really didn't have any interest. Besides, there was legal liability involved. So I declined to hear anything. Did I consider Dillon becoming the main villain, sure. It was logical, since the villain was a computer, and so was Dillon. I understand that some fans would have liked that better, but others would have claimed it was predictable. You can't please everyone, so you have to go with your gut.\n\n(1/2)"}, {"id": 5, "content": ">>4\n>As far as Dillon, he was not my favorite character. And the whole mysterious sister thing? Been there done that... in Space, remember? (Did I think it would surprise anyone? No, but then again, killing the shark at the end of \"Jaws\" didn't surprise anyone either. It's the voyage to the goal that I tried to make memorable.) I did not choose to make the season all about Dillon. But the way Eddie had set it up made this a logical choice. His was the most dramatic and dimensional character. He had all the Ranger qualities, with a healthy dose of mystery. Yes, if I'd had more time, and a staff of good writers to kick around ideas with, I'm sure I could have re-worked the story arc and made the season better. But for what I was given, I am very proud of what was achieved.\n\n(2/2)"}, {"id": 6, "content": ">>2\nhttps://popgeeks.com/forums/threads/a-few-simple-questions.65708/\n\nQ: Did you have any major disagreements with Jonathan Tzachor in terms of your styles of adaptation relative to your style in comparison to his\n\n>Life is a Series of Crossroads\n\n>In response to your first question... if you work at a factory welding widgets for the rest of your life, you will forever escape the turmoil that is creative disagreement. But if you do anything, and I mean ANYTHING, that involves making something, especially something out of thin air... prepare yourself for battle.\n\n>Yes, Jonathan and I had disagreements, but that is GOOD! In fact, all the producers have opinions. Show me a TV show where everyone agreed with the man in charge, and I'll show you a show that got cancelled quickly. Disagreement is the life-blood of creativity. Disagreement is what opens up the possibility of discovering something better than ANY of the participants dreamt of at the start. Disagreement is proof that people care enough to spend the time an energy to be the best they are capable of. Disagreement makes everyone involved smarter about the subject, sharper in the next debate, and more respectful of each other.\n\n>And by disagreement, I do not mean animosity. Yes, sometimes a debate becomes heater, but that is normal too. Yes, plenty of ours were heated, but then again, none of us ever doubted that the other people cared deeply about the show.\n\n>If there is a downside to disagreement, it is that sometimes you end up at a place where you are a bit confused. You've agreed to write it in a manner you don't love, but you don't know exactly what the other person wants. This happened now and then, but you work through it.\n\n>In summary, when you work for someone, whether it's me working for Jonathan, or Jonathan working for Haim, you don't always have to agree, but you always have to make a decision and move forward. If you don't like that, then quit and instead get a job welding widgets.\n\n(1/2)"}, {"id": 7, "content": ">>6\nQ: Did you ever believe your work would be so well received by its intended audience while at the same time having such a seemingly negative stigma for the actors who participated in its productions. do you think that said reputation is really deserving. yes its a children's show but many actors have taken the pretentious stance that a role on power rangers is \"Credibility poison\" and ruins their chances for legitimacy in later parts of their acting career.\n\n>In regards to the second question... Actors, writers, producers... everyone makes career decisions one inch at a time. I mean, you work through this episode, then the next, and pretty soon, the whole season is over. Ok, now you're offered another season. There are pros and cons, but let's say you decide to stay on. And after a few months, another season is over. And after a few seasons, the show decides to change casts completely. Now you're out on the street. You made decisions an inch at a time, and now you've gone a mile.\n\n>If, at the beginning, you had had the foresight to see where you would be at the end, you might have taken a different path. (This is what managers are for) You might have ended up flipping burgers at McDonalds, you might have played opposite Tom Cruise in a blockbuster, or... you might have ended up going to endless auditions but never working again as an actor. You never know. But to blame it on Power Rangers? I don't think I totally buy that. I'm not saying it might not make your path harder in some respects, but it certainly makes it easier in others. There is no better place to learn a craft, whether as an actor or writer, than Power Rangers. The key is to get in, learn, and then get out... without getting stuck in a rut. But if you do get stuck in a rut, take responsibility for those decisions and move on.

I could sit here right now and make up a great story. But the characters are what make a story worth taking the time to watch, read, listen to, etc. And characters are hard. They've got to be true, meaning that the story arc occurs naturally as a result of who they are. If you force a story point, you're comprising. With PR, there was lots of compromise.\n\n>First, there's just a simple matter of screentime. Very few minutes for lots of characters.\n\n>Second, the footage forces you to shove square pegs into round holes, sometimes.\n\n>Third, the schedule doesn't allow you to mull your options too long. You've got to move it pretty quickly.\n\n>And lastly, the main characters can't develop toooo much since they have to last the entire season. Therefore, some of my favorite characters are the ones who only come in for an episode or two. These are the ones that can come in with a flaw/problem, and then have it solved over the course of 22 mins. That can give the story a dimension other eps lack.\n\n>I never considered myself to be strong on character, though I have great respect for those who are. When I see a movie with great characters, I am awed and inspired. They work with the plot seamlessly. In fact, the plot and characters are reflections of the same element, or your story fails."}, {"id": 40, "content": ">>1 (OP)\nI wonder if they would reuse this cockpit in the future.

But that did not prevent me from watching the RBs and deriving some enjoyment out of them. There are a few things I liked from the RBs:\n\n-Eva 02 Gamma and Alpha are cool designs\n-beast mode\n-Eva 08 is a cool design but I don’t like the color scheme (should have been green like Eva 05)\n-AAA Wunder is kinda cool and makes sense to make use of an S2 Eva as it’s powersource and AT field source\n- it was interesting to give some more expo to Gendo and his shortcomings as a person but not necessary. He kinda gets a truncated versions of Shinji’s EOE exposition.\n\nSome Negatives, IMO:\n- no grown Asuka (missed opportunity here; we could have had a legit Punished Asuka)\n- Mari—nothing against the character just unnecessary and doesn’t jibe with the rest of the cast. She should have been another Rei who looked at Asuka as a sort of big sister and that Asuka reluctantly took under her wing as the more experienced Eva pilot. So another missed opportunity for interesting development.\n-Fuyutsuki should have been dead or with Misato’s crew. It made sense why he sided with Gendo in the OG but not post 2.0 RB.\n-wasting Mark 06\n-beast/Angel mode (reusing it made it super cheap and lame, plus jobbed hard)\n-overall inferior fights (sans space fight)\n-the whole sequence in thrice with Rei Q at the village was unnecessary and a waste of screen time considering all the other notes they had to hit but didn’t and the fact that she just dies again at the end."}, {"id": 35, "content": ">>34\nthe whole space intro to 3 is probably one of the best scenes in the series, it's visually creative and it doesn't lean on images from the original to engage the viewer. works well in a theater too, especially the sound, both the image and the chatter coming up from a dark screen like they do."}, {"id": 36, "content": ">>9\n>\"3.0 was the best\"\n>\"Shinji has to reckon with the tangible consequences of his failure in the near third impact\"\nYou lose me right here.

Everyone acts so negatively it makes you wonder why they bothered leaving him alive at all. The consequences of 2.0 weren't even something anyone could blame him for, especially not Misato who was cheering him on.\n\n3.0 was bleak for the sake of being bleak and jumped so nonsensically far ahead in the future that it disorients you as much as it does Shinji. 4.0 was Anno closing the book on Evangelion once and for all, and if you really couldn't understand why everything was happening the way it was then it's no wonder you liked 2 hours of Shinji being punched in the gut, told to kill himself and then punched in the gut again."}, {"id": 37, "content": ">>32\nYou can think what you want but they stated the scene was meant to be as such."}, {"id": 38, "content": ">>25\n>its metanarrative\n>its self referential\n>its a deconstruction\nTHAT DOESNT MAKE IT GOOD YOU FUCKING RETARD"}, {"id": 39, "content": ">>38\nMy point was that the sequence is taken out of context, it's a metanarrative scene that goes through different styles to showcase a point, I don't know why you are getting so worked up about it."}, {"id": 40, "content": ">>1 (OP)\nI think ultimately you’ll have to experience Rebuild yourself.

If I were to throw my hat into the ring I’d say Rebuilds main issue is that it doesn’t know what it wants to be.\n\nDoes it want to be a faithful retelling of the original series with enhanced visuals? (1.0)\nDoes it want to be a reimagining of the original story with a fresh take on the same events? (2.0)\nDoes it want to tell an entirely new story in a new setting with new characters and plots?

They will always think about them to some degree, if nothing else to compare with their current or modern ability. So between the time he made the original series and he made the rebuilds, it’s really improbable that he would already have a large amount of ideas ready to play with. Again my guess is that he like a lot of “creators l stood on the shoulders of other people on their team and took all the credit for it. it’s like Kojima and how his modern ideas aren’t as enjoyable as his older games where his team contributed a lot of the best ideas the games had."}, {"id": 46, "content": ">>1 (OP)\nThe only one I like out of them is 3.0, because it's really weird and sad.

They are more sorcerers.\n\n\n>Red/Green Jason only fought a few times, but it was obvious he could deflect energy attacks and hit with serious finishers.\n\nAgreed. It's also extremely strange how the show never mentions Red Ranger Dragon Power again. Technically Rocky should have it. Or does it mean that Jason still has the original Dragon coin still?\n\n\n>But really we’re looking at Jason, a guy who was pretty much one-to-one with Tommy, with the Red and Green powers together, and the Green Ranger was able to match White Ranger Tommy in Return of the Green Ranger power wise.\n\nFans to overwank White Ranger. I tend to blame this on the fact that Rocky, Adam, and Aisha were so inexperienced as Rangers. So it made Tommy even better. It got so bad that the 5 Rangers couldn't beat a single monster themselves without Tommy there to save them.\n\n>And in Zeo, Jason was still clearly Tommy’s equal, but now the one with waning powers.\n\nI don't think Jason'm had waning powers. I think the Gold powers were too strong and kept growing. The Gold Ranger was 3 Rangers in 1. Jason did his best as a human to contain it.

So, hopefully the fans will be kind.\" But those heavier elements were always a part of the conversation.\n\n>\"We did discuss a lot, 'What is the tone of this? How do we keep it the nostalgic '93 Power Rangers, but how do we bring it into an adult version and how do we deal with real emotions and how far do we go with those emotions?'\" Yost continued. \"There's a lot of discussion about tone, and hopefully the tone is right.\n\n\nSource:\nhttps://comicbook.com/powerrangers/news/power-rangers-david-yost-billy-once-and-always-role-reaction-exclusive/"}, {"id": 20, "content": ">>19\nIt seems like a lot of Yost's issues stems from the fact that the special is only 55 minutes long.

A big problem with Minn is that she is presented as a bratty and even less mature than how the original Rangers were.

Maybe a brother or sister. And both of them have to fight. Or explore the idea that maybe Minn isn't the chosen one, but rather her sister.

He stays focused and doesn't do anything unnecessary.\n\nTommy is a big flashy fighter that loves to throw feints, jabs, steal opponents weapons, and use a lot energy to disrupt his opponents flow.

Also, all Sephirah are tied to planets except for Da'at, which is based on Pluto, a dwarf planet.\n\nFeaturing only 10 swords also keeps up the cross motif, since the kanji for the number 10, \"十\", is literally shaped like a cross.\n\n>Wouldn't an infinity motif work better for a final weapon than just a slightly longer sword with +10 damage?\nWe already have 2 final forms with an overt Infinity motif, we don't need more.
