Is the show good, I only know it's police real robots.
I only have this pic and an anon's cel, and I can't find the pic with the bored guy talking on the megaphone

Tetsujin 28 FX is pretty cool. The robots on both the enemy and hero sides are cool (I especially like the transforming truck in the second episode) and it's got a new contender for my favourite super robot theme. I'm also chugging along through Astro Boy and am continually impressed by just how much better it is than most other manga I've read.
Also, I've started Gridman the Hyper Agent, probably the first toku I've enjoyed as much as a mecha anime. I've always liked the designs of Gridman, but I hated the anime, so I'm watching the toku instead. It's pretty good so far -- perhaps if I like it I'll watch other Ultra stuff, starting with Tiga, Gaia, or Mebius.

I finished L-Gaim, pretty fun show. Kind of a weird ending though, left me a little unsatisfied.
Trying to pick between Macross and Combattler for what to watch next.

Very nearly done with the original Mobile Suit Gundam - Amuro just bodied M'Quve and I love seeing that 16 year old kid just mowing through Zeon mobile suits where he used to struggle against more than two at a time.

Still going through Jeeg. As I've said before, it's fine. It's really amusing a lot of the time, and Mecha Don is the best. Also, I hope we get to see some more panty shots from the main girl. That was about twenty episodes ago.

>>22601370
Unlike most of /m/ I will tell you most of it is trash. Just watch the stand alone movie 3 with the big sewer monster, it's the only part of the franchise that's worth watching. Most of the cast is garbage with Ohta being the absolute worst. If you want good police mecha check out Tank Police, J-Decker, Zoids Fuzors, AD Police (both versions), Angel Links, Tiger a d Bunny, and the Silent Mobius movies. I rag on Patlabor, and it deserves it, but even it's worst is still better than Active Raid or Steam Detectives.

>>22605673
At least you didn't call it "Patlaboring" this time, Duel, but you just HAD to shill garbage like TV AD Police and Angel Links. Did those shows have spicy bondage scenes?

No that was Outlaw Star, a bunch of dreadful gunk somehow made by two legendary studios Sunrise and Xebec. Angel Links was an extremely well made series.

Watched New Mutants and Shazam: Fury of The Gods this weekend which were both great movies.

Recently watched the 5th episode of Gaiking, the show has really gotten into it's own by this point.
>Sumo guy is big, stubborn and kinda stupid (thinks the MC is actively trying to sabotage him), but get things done
>The kid character likes to mess with Sumotard and take embarrasing pictures of him
It also has some bouncy Yoshinori Kanada-style animation, right as the action choreography gains some legs.

Go Nagai may only have created the titular robot, but the designs, personalites and advanced precursor civilization shenanigans definitely make it feel like one of his works, even if all signs point to the show being a product of his Dynamic Pro. assistants/disciples and the people at Toei Animation.
Is there some major creative shift in the second half, considering that Dynamic is only credited for the first 22 episodes?

>>22605631
>I could forgive Patlabor if there was robot action that isn't just 5 minutes of bomb disarming or blocking streets footage to catch baddies.
The original OVA is the only entry that suffers from this problem.

This, but with You're Under Arrest instead of Patlabor.
I like both, but YUA's cast isn't as interesting and its plots/situations are so lighthearted that they're practically a joke in and of themselves.
Noa has a wide range of expression in her eyebrows alone, while Natsuki and Miyuki's faces are so flat and undefined that they almost look like something from a decade+ later.

I just had to drop Metalder though. I loved it at first but now it feels like I'm trying to make myself watch it at arkund episode 30.

Is the second part of the Yamato remake that bad? Heard it shelves some of the likable characters from part 1 and whitewashes Dessler, something about

I'm working my way through the Armored Trooper Votoms franchise. I've finished ATV, Last Red Shoulder, and Big Battle so far. Idk why I never gave the series much thought but it is now my favorite and I am thoroughly obsessed. They were able to produce the feeling of sci-fi that other "sci-fi" anime don't quite nail for me and I really like that.

>>22601349
I got 3/4ths of the way through L-Gaim during covid and it was a lot of fun and then a bunch of other stuff happened and I got distracted and depressed and now it somehow feels wrong to finish it cause I'm not in the same place emotionally I was back then

>>22607032
>Captain Tylor
>ongoing narrative
I mean, sort of, I guess? It feels like it's more about the crew's character arcs than having a story that builds up to anything. Should've went back to Digimon or read Demonbane or something if you wanted that

>>22606019
Do you really want to take that Italian rumor seriously? There’s not a single mention of it in Japanese and no recordings or official source for what he supposedly said. The whole thing sounds sketchy as fuck.

>>22607677
[9] was the only citation that contained anything remotely useful, namely Go Nagai claiming that he created Gaiking's design.
Nearly all of the other citations pertaining to that chunk of the Wikipedia article were incidential mentions.

If the Dynamic Pro. connection was nothing more than some Italian blogger/pundit's hoax, William Winckler Productions wouldn't have credited them in the opening credits of their compilation movies, assuming that they got the credits from Toei Animation (this credit also appears on the show's Japanese Wiki page).

Toei had no incentive to perpetuate foreign theories about them screwing over a famous mangaka, unless they thought it'd be a good way to drum up publicity for this show.
Even then I strongly doubt that their licensing department or William Winckler's low-rent voiceover company had enough passion toward this little project to do such a thing.

>>22607748
Some Dynamic Pro staff worked as freelancers in the show, but it was heavilly marketed as their first original Robot anime. Nagai's feud with Toei was regarding ownership of Mazinger Z. That's why to this day, elements from the TV series belong to Toei and elements from the manga belongs to Dynamic Pro, with a bit of overlap due to how close they were to each other. The marketing for Shin Mazinger couldn't call it a remake of the old show or make any reference to the Toei version for that reason. And even Z in Mazinkaiser and Grendizer U uses the manga design for that same reason. That was all settled in court and there was never any mention of Gaiking regarding any of that. There's nothing substantial about those claims outside one guy saying "he said it, I was there"

>>22607522
I would suggest teaking a brief break from it. While it isn't a depressing show by any means, the show does take a darker turn in the second half and it might sour your already bad mood as is.

They're taking stories better suited either for 1-2 hour OVAs or full 50-episode anime, and making them 12-26 episodes.

I watched the intro to Demonsbane, I thought it wouldn't be as bad to be an oathbreaker if it was just one separate anime I finished instead of "I will resume something expressedly forbidden".
Demonbane looks nice, I get the vague vibe of why it might be compared to Shin Mazinger Zero, but the robots looked too overdetailed and I wanted to unrelatedly lie down that day

Needs more action, new characters outside of Leonardo are annoying, and it has slow pacing. Not too different from season 1.
>Tsubasa Chronicle season 2
More character development, slightly better comedy, and the villains actually do things. GASP!
>Shinkalion Z
I like the E7 pilot he's a good character, unfortunately much of the supporting cast from the first series came back for no reason. It's like the writers gave up around episode 9 and said "fuck it just bring people back we can't flesh this out on its own". I do like Dark Shinkalion, he's basically a centaur Epyon Gundam with a trident.
>Glass Fleet
Ignoring the fact the main villain is an incestuous rapist and murder this is one really shitty cast. Everyone is either violent, unfunny, petty, or obnoxious. Top that off with very low quality music, corner cutting animation, and subpar world building and you get, well, this. The action and pacing are good at least.

so I guess the continuity to follow is not just "Hades is fed up with Ankoku who is fed up with his generals", but also parental relations with Shiro before the reveal. Tetsuya already said he considers Kenzo his father, so I guess any issues about that will come up later, or after Koji comes back.
Also just look how happy he was to get to Shiro for parents' day

while Kenzo, Yumi, and the viewer are the only people who know about Kenzo's secret, Tetsuya and Jun (as I was already told) are considering Shiro as family unknowingly. But I didn't anticipate Shiro likewise unknowingly treating Kenzo as a father. Really really really really wish we get any sort of closure or reflection from the characters about Kenzo's death, outside of a SRW30 interaction and whatever might be in the unfindable pre-Infinitism manga.

One of the most fun part of the show for me is how it's like 'kid falls into Gundam' but way more grounded.

I never expected this show to hit me emotionally either but then following episode really got me. And episode 14 or 15 whatever Im at now.

Also I found out China made a fucking Transformer Asurada and I had to buy it.

I guess that's from knowing Kenzo prior from Mazinkaiser, Shin Mazinger, and Shin Mazinger Zero, which probably has 1-2 parental interactions with him and anyone else, from all three works fucking combined
>same priest from "Shiro fights bullies but also bullies animals" episode is back

It wasn't as emotional as "Sayaka has to depart with Aphrodite A after over several dozen episodes", but I assume it's probably the most emotional story we'll get from Jun, although I'd be happy to be proven wrong.
That's around the thirdway mark for Great. And that crow has been gone for a few episodes too, I swear the quality of the episodes went up fucking instantly. I tried not to hate him, I really tried.

If GPX does, then I guess Etoile also does. The main racing machine has a voiced AI too.

BUT, unlike GPX, THE RACING PART OF THIS RACING ANIME IS SO UNDERWHELMING AND BORING! And a shame too, since the manga, which is a prequel to this TV series, does evoke a sense of speed better in static panels than in animation.

I'm halfway through Tetsujin 28 FX and the direction they're going is quite interesting. It seems like it's basically Da Garn (a drawn-out war with planet-destroying villains that get plenty of character development) in the first half and Might Gaine/J-Decker (episodic robot battle hijinks) in the second half. The robots are very cool -- I love the truck they transport Tetsujin on (it's so cool that it has a spacious interior and a logo on the side) as well as several of the enemy mecha (especially the transforming ones, of which there are plenty).

>>22613241
Kenzo wasn’t in Mazinkaiser though?

>>22605673
>good
>j decker

>>22614008
J-Decker is good. It's one of the best Braves. Don't let "hurr durr toy commercial" ruin it for you.

>>22614036
Braves aren't good, hell most /m/ isn't good because there's no characterisation, there's no story in the episodes besides a random monster or something, the animation is repetitive and boring.
It's emperors new clothes shit to pretend Braves, Voltes V, Mazinger, Getter et al are good

>>22614040
There is LOTS of characterization in J-Decker and most of the Braves in general, most notably Da Garn, Goldran, and GaoGaiGar. There's also a lot of characterization in 70s mecha, especially Grendizer. There are overarching stories in all these shows as well, especially near the end. Have you even seen these?

>>22614088
Fucking lmao no there isn't, the status quo is reset every episode, no one learns or remembers anything.
Da Garn at least had the villains realise they could interrupt the transformation and stuff, but otherwise most mecha is just pure dreck

>>22614088
Why the fuck are you replying to him? How stupid are you?

>>22614158
Lots of the love for Combattler is Filipino nostalgia and the show's cultural/political significance. It's like how in the US Voltron is "the giant robot show" but Golion really isn't good. However, the show does have Yasuhiko character designs and it was a more sophisticated super robot show for its time.

>>22614175

The mysterious old prophet guy that told Koji about the Final Kaiser Blade seems like it's Kenzo, I have no idea who else it could be. He's done the oldguy disguise in I think the Z vs Ankoku movie and maybe in the manga as well. This never really goes anywhere though, in any continuity apart from maybe Shin Mazinger Zero, and in isolation it's never shown in the OVA who this is, but that's literally the only person it could be, either that or a hallucination that's homaging Kenzo's appearance.

I beg of you to pick up Mazinger Zero though, after the "is this a fucking edgefest" hurdle, it's a positive and charming story full of hope. I think you'd be able to most appreciate it after having consumed I think all known prior Mazinger material.

As a racing series, Cyber Formula is a solid ride so far. Episodes 11-12 were the notable ones as they showed that the main character, Hayato, wasn't invincible and had to learn and grow from his hotheaded cockiness and crushing defeat.

Dangaiou tv 2001

It's like a mix of eva parody and supermecha. They even had episode with electricity on not-nerv base turning off. Or when big bosses leave on secret business and not-Mistao has to take command and bitch-slap non-Ritsuko doctor. Animation is pretty fluid. It's kinda weird, i can tell they had talent but i also can see why it's forgotten obsolete show.
Also I like how every episode ends up with mastermind behind this week attack getting murdered.

>>22617794
Yeah, G Dangaioh actually isn't that bad. I liked the plane launch hangars and the secret base's exterior/interior, as well as its cool computer screens, and many of the enemy mecha were cool (especially the Build Ranger, the Knight of Gold ripoff, and the final boss). The twist with Mia Alice at the end is interesting, and the final two episodes are good in general. Re: the animation, when CGI has fully taken over modern anime, we'll look back on this as a cool animation piece much like with the original Dangaioh. The only problem I could say this anime has is that the slice-of-life/fanservice bits are suuuper painful to get through (especially considering that the OVA wasn't very lewd aside from the main cast wearing leotards).

>>22617802
Duel you have the absolutely most stupid opinions on this site.

>>22617816
Not Duel because I don't think G Dangaioh is a 10/10; at most it's a 6/10, but it's certainly not one of the worst /m/ shows ever like people on this board say (that would go to Franxx or Code Geass)

I've watched a good share of monster of the week stuff so I know they can take time to get the plot rolling, and Mazinger is already going at a faster pace than some others like Gaiking or Voltes.

>frontline base is almost done, generals fuck up, heads out to help the sentouju purely out of concern, even trying to shield it and takes a Thunder Break to the fucking face and is presumed dead
>subsequently limps back home, is promoted to commander, personally by the Emperor, achieving his dream... only to succumb to his wounds, with even a sad theme playing
Only downside to the ep is that the Emperor doesn't mourn his death like I know he later does for Ankoku Daishogun but Boss got another assist in some brighter news. I was hoping I'd like Gorgon and that he wouldn't die a bitch's death like in other works and I was not disappointed, Great continues Z's tradition of treating its antagonists well.
There's also Mommy Marquis Janus to look forward to immediately after.

>>22618271
Glad you're enjoying its pace, I can't remember how many episodes felt like I was giving it a chance vs being invested, I think it was maybe 7 or less, possibly even 3 or 4. You'll definitely get a sense of progression and development if you haven't already. Z's manga was fine and felt like a complete story iirc.

Forgot to comment, Ashura is absolutely top tier here. Have you watched Shin already? I liked Brocken over creepy Ashura before I watched any Mazinger, but there are extremely good reasons why Baron Ashura is the iconic go-to number two for Dr Hell, I'm certain you'll appreciate Ashura all the more by the end.

Choreo and effects look pretty good though, seems like they found a nice balance and aesthetics, albeit still not a super fan of so much neon and colours. But I enjoyed what I watched for Gaim, so I'll probably just have to warm up to the flashy colours.
