>>22597825I feel like it's more anksha was(and still is) such a menace they had no choice but to churn out a bunch of suits that can sort of hang with it. Raids are still totally fucked though, but that's been the case even before it.
>>22597830Better at melee, tanker, has more weapons and a stun that you can boost into its heavy damaging downswing.
>>22597830Zaku IV is way more cool on top of being better.
What's the recommended build for Baund Doc?
>>22597941Thrusters, HP, defense parts.
This is the best mecha show ever produced and it will probably never be surpassed. Deal with it.
>>22597732Goldran and Xabungle have better antagonists.
>>22597228I read somewhere that Kanuka Clancy was written out because the writers didn't know how to make a character that was supposedly so perfect interesting. I feel like a big opportunity was missed in making her the "perfect" American cop, but being excessively violent by Japanese standards, and playing up the difference in how policing is treated as a cultural institution in Japan vs the USA.

>>22597148Nah it's Macross.

>>22597443in all fairness it has been long established Hyaku Shiki spawned a line of successor machines, with the mass production variant in particular being more successful than similar attempts at Zeta and ZZ. It makes sense the line doesn't completely vanish after UC 0089, especially when we're talking about entities other than the Federation.Liuo & Co had a hand in supporting AEUG and are more familiar with their dedicated suits, even using Dijehs in UC 0097. A Hyaku line variant for veteran pilots in their employ is entirely reasonable.
>>22597084>There's some weird one off models like the GM with the weird bidentThe Striker/Semi-Striker/Striker Custom?
>>22597461The silver variant looks a bit better. The Gold with white torso doesn't look right.>>22597466I wonder if the Rick Dias(Rick Dias II maybe) will get a similar treatment. It's weird how it gets abandoned in ZZ and we only see them return in the form of Zeon loyalist piloting Schuzrum Dias.
>>22597639>It's weird how it gets abandoned in ZZ and we only see them return in the form of Zeon loyalist piloting Schuzrum Dias.Dunno, makes sense to me that the ones interested in Dias line would mainly be Zeeks from AEUG.EFF wouldn't care much, because they aren't as numerous and easy to fit in the line up as the Nemos, or as appealing to keep as Barzams. I wouldn't be surprised if they sold most of them back to Anaheim at low price.I'm surprised that Moon doesn't have an updated version for Zeon side already, considering that Bajeena-san piloted one.
>>22597466really? more successful than the Zeta plus line?

Started jiban, so far he seems like a more versatile robocop, also his anti-biolom laws give him more freedom than restraining like robocop’s equivalent lol.
Does anybody have the rest of the Filipino-English Solbrain dub? I found 1-32 on archive but the uploader said they weren't restoring 33-53 because it's too low quality.I don't mind watching the second have in VCD-Vision. Just wanna show a metal hero to some friends.
>>22597888Ask the Apollo Dub Archive, they found it in the first place, but I don't know if they're active in any capacity anymore, I think they're technically still around via a Telegram? Worst case scenario see if you can ask around people who were involved with them. Except Kalhi Balto of course fuck that guy.
>>22597901I have no clue who they are but I'll get to em. I might ask the archive.org uploader if they have the rest. Would prefer to not dive into Telegram.
>>22597924I AM the uploader, & I don't, I regret not having the foresight to just download & upload all of them while they were still easily available.
He's probably one of my favorite characters in the entire franchise. From the outside looking in, I always thought he'd be a stereotypical military dickhead, but completely flipped the script as soon as I watched 79' and Zeta. Bright does not have a easy job at all. He's a 19 year old practically fresh out of the academy and thrusted into one of the most important Federation vessels that single handedly changed the tides of the OYW. Most of his crew are civilians and teenagers. The only reason why he acts the way he does is because it's a matter of life or death if they don't succeed. It also shows it isn't easy for him either. The way he speaks to people shows he's always "on" and refuses to slip up for a second, he knows the importance of his role.Plus the scene in Zeta where he views the tape his family sent to him. I cry everytime.
>>22595649Hes the most based Gundam character (next to Amuro)
>>22595653Whitebased, one might say
>>22595649I like how he still has very clear and very human flaws, like being horrible at the whole "husband" and "father" thing.
>>22595664He still didn't need that shit with emaly
Boys likes MazinkaiserMen likes Mazinger Zbut only giga chads loves Great Mazinger

>>22596573Please tell me Great starts to pick up I beg of youI like Tetsuya and Kenzo but it has yet to have the same charm as Z had. I've just finished episode 7, I hope my socks to be knocked off soon.
>>22597834Episode 9 with the Battle Beast fembot one and 13, the parents day episode with the sad Tetsuya reaction image. Those two episodes in the 9-13 range are the ones I was most fond of.
>>22597933The fembot one was better than I expected but felt it could have been better. It was its own take on the concept but wasn't tremendously different from the spy one and Minerva X episodes. But I haven't been enjoying anything the past few days, so I genuinely don't know whether it's the show or not.>the parents day episode with the sad Tetsuya reaction imageOk that sounds like it might be painful. Tetsuya's been a bit of a rebellious jerk but a likable one, it'd be good to see other facets of him and his worries/insecurities.>Those two episodes in the 9-13 range are the ones I was most fond of.Sorry, "those two are my favourites in that range" or "my favourite episodes for the entire show are those two, in the 9-13 range"? Like, I sure hope there's others in the 20-50 range..>have to watch an ep before the Great Booster one because the DVD remote doesn't work>it's the one with the dying child that challenged Tetsuya to boxing>he died before Tetsuya could finish beating the battle beast and come back>there is no lesson or positive outlook or literally anything about the end of the episode, it is just a depiction of how life sometimes has its tragediesI didn't mind but it hurt a bit>>22590173I forgot to respond to this, but thank you. I've been typing out some of the pages on google translate but it's been draining.

>>22593853>At least Eternal is in the next episode.Lol it's not even the real Eternal
>>22592714Hotaro and a tree stump would have better chemistry than he ever has with Rinne
>>22592855It's comic book problems. Just because it doesn't come up doesn't mean it didn't happen, even if that's silly as shit.
>>22593121>>22593128Suits that partially or fully showed the face of the actor/actress were occasionally used for executives in Showa series. Bilgenia and Bishum (mutant form) in Black are two of the more notable examples.
>>22594590Better than some of the other Reiwa shows at this point.
Happy 50th anniversary, Getter Robo!
>>22563266S-Surely Go Nagai will inherit Getter's will and write a proper ending to Arc...
>>22597520Go Nagai never seems to be in Devil Man mode when doing Getter stuff. He always leans more towards his tv magazine side for those.
>>22597520>>22597537Nagai can't write like Ishikawa and vice versa.
Hayato going Solid Snake and singlehandedly destroying an entire base will always be one of my favorite moments in the manga.
>>22597628Best Getter character.

>>22592162Well, disregarding that their goals are different, if Mira and Jou want to protect people against invading aliens, what do they expect? That it would be easy? That they wouldn't be risking their lives? It's not a game. It's not that he risked their lives on a whim, they had to stop a giant monster that would otherwise level the city.
>>22593982They actually gave us the reverse Taro here. Set him up as this cool friendly guy who looks for hidden potential in others, but then imply that he's actually just a thrill chaser that picks and chooses his partners because they're funny.
I'm not a zoomer and I'm perfectly comfortable with my sexuality and political views. Will I like this? Western internet says that this anime is "very left" and "very gay" whatever it means.
>>22597586
>>22597591Where is the joke Dobson
>>22594627GaiaGaiyus is the only good one. He actually talks about obscure stuff and comes up with lots of fan theories rather than just regurgitate production histories.
>>22597665Dude's whole channel is "Hey have you ever read Gaia Gear?"
>>22596334>he couldn't enjoy anything anymoreNever did. All those video essay and review fags only liked anime ironically because they realized they could grift weebs and nerds by parroting popular opinions, like SAO le bad for example. That's how leftists infiltrate hobbies and farm clout before going masks off, full retard and trying to promote retarded beliefs. Thots do the same thing. Put a few flavor of month prize figures in the background and reacts to a few popular scenes from the flavor of the month and suddenly every thirsty idiot ironically believes a caked up stacy that just spend 2 hours doing make up for a video actually enjoys anime like them, so the nerds sub to their onlyfans and get swindled out of their meager money.

So Disel gets Pendulum as expected here, gonna get repainted later and probably get the new equipmentQuestion is where hes going from here. And how far this chapter goes.
>SEED freedom drops in theaters in a few weeks>2 friends want to join me in the theater>only gundam we watched was thunderbolt and 0080 >0 chance we can binge 100 episodes of SEED and DestinyShould I just go through the recap movies with them? Some youtube recap? watch the movie blindly anyway? help me make this movie not suck ass for them anon
>>22596882Watch the first 14 episodes of SEED, then episodes 17-19, then 23-25, then 27- 40.Now you can watch Gundam SEED compilation movie III "The Rumbling Sky" and move onto Destiny.for Destiny I recommend the first 6 episdoes, Stargazer, then you can resume watching up to episode 13, then switch to the compilation films.
>>22596882>help me make this movie not suck assSuch a thing is not possible.
>>22597314Does this skip like needless filler or something? Sounds like you just cut half the anime
>>22597815I cut more like 1/4th of the episodes, in SEED's case. It's less that there's filler, but that I just focused on the big moments of the series.It's needed, but if you pay attention you can probably just infer what was cut out.
>>22597815The first couple of episodes he tells you to skip revolve around a character that is more or less like a Ramba Ral analog in that it's an experienced enemy commander who presents the first major challenge for the main character to personally overcome. Main character feels guilt about having to kill him after getting to know him somewhat. They aren't terrible episodes, but the story arc does kinda drag on a bit long. Then he tells you to skip episode 26 which is a worthless recap episode full of flashback clips.
Anyone here read the manga?So far I definitely prefer it over the TV series.>Action scenes that don't consist of the same drawn-out attack animations, featuring some surprisingly visceral violence at times (Umi getting spiked, Hikaru's dog biting her in the throat)>More confident in it's sense of humor, Hikaru's spontaneous cat ears and the super-deformed characters never coming across as an afterthought>Story is more concise than the TV series, though I still appreciate Nova and a couple of the MOTW capersBetween this and the Sega Saturn game I've found a new appreciation for the characters and their interactions, a prime example of how a good cast can turn a fairly banal or juvenile work into something truly special.>Hikaru is both a fierce warrior and the friendliest person you'll ever meet>Fuu is wise, but too dense to understand jokes or hyperbole>Umi is a snotty rich girl thrust into a world of monsters and warlocksIt's been a couple years since I watched the anime adaptations and I've still got about 3,5 volumes left to go, but I will probably stand by most of these words long after I've finished.

>>22597134>what are the chances I’m going to enjoy the whole thing? Does it ever gets tiring as everyone says?to be frank, the show is formulaic, if you like what's going on now, you'll be able to get through mostly the whole thing. Really the only thing that changes is the growing cast and them finally programming different insert songs>MiliaEstranged hag who's strewn with work and paranoia, pls understand>>22568136looking at what other anons said, I guess it got listed on steam but not actually translated. I wanted to buy it but ran out of money. Apparentlyt it follows the same track as all of the other games. Sad
>>22597134No matter what some soulless fag says 7 is very good, the show picks up after the city is forcefully folded from the Battle 7.
>>22596709>Store anon here. Merchandise wise for markets outside japan yes they are shelfwarming fuckers compared to other macross titles.How much of Macross sales outside of Japan are even via physical hobby shops? From what I can tell, everyone in the Western fanbase just orders their VFs online.
