One of the single most overrated series in the medium.
Thankfully, it never set any standards or precedents. I can only shudder what would have happened if the rest of the industry had decided to imitate it.

>>22544286
I don't understand why everybody loves this show. It's even creepier than Franxx, but it somehow escaped being hated because of its homages to classic super robots and admittedly cool designs -- but even still it figured out a way to do a mecha pantyshot.
If you want a post-2000s seasonal hand-drawn super robot anime, just watch Gravion, Ordian, or one of the SRW anime. Don't bother with this creepy crap.

It's not about being 2deep4u; it's that the show is super creepy. I enjoy fairly fun, mindless mecha shows like Exkaiser and Fighbird, so I'm not trying to be intellectual. I'm calling the show out for being creepy and unnecessarily sexual. Your insistence on defending it is why most normal people won't touch anime with a 10 foot pole and characterize all anime fans as a bunch of basement-dwelling, body-pillow-humping losers hopelessly addicted to hentai.

There are at least two new seasonal /m/ shows airing right now, with threads that overlap with those of at least three other boards. That inevitably attracts people like them.

Why did you say that like this is supposed to be a problem?

My main criticism is that it was shonen tier pantyshot crap with a shojo storyline when it should have been a full on seinen /josei theme, keeping the comedic undertones. The tone was completely off and made it awkward

Finished watching it a few monthes ago. Overall really enjoyed it, but I felt the first season was WAY stronger than the second.

The first season is perfect. Incredibly strong opener, fantastic pacing, great sense of escalation, and the emotions and struggles and relationships of the characters feel genuinely intense.

The second season isn't bad, and I definitely enjoyed it, but it just feels like it sorta loses the magic a bit. The pacing isn't as good with some arcs feeling dragged out (the Gou / Anna separation arc) while other stuff gets rushed, the emotional/relationship stuff feels like it devolves into more typical romcom/soap-opera cliches after the genuine pathos of the first season, and the climax is only moderately satisfying (after a lot of buildup with the worlds situation seemingly becoming more dire, the final boss just kinda comes out of nowhere and ultimately feels like a more deadly skirmish).

I did like the ending, but a few characters feel like they're wasted. For example Mira has one of the most interesting plights in the show but rarely gets any POV stuff and ends up being a background source of friction for Gou and Anna (though I liked her big moment in the climax of the show, but it was a bit late), or Lou Roux who has probably the best episode of the first season but they kinda just...forgot to finish her story (she doesn't really DO anything in the climax besides be a sword, and it's odd how it feels like everything that happens to her and Ken is building up to "don't lose yourself to hatred" but then the epilogue reveals she's basically been doing the same thing for nearly a decade and is only now reconsidering).

Second season still had some fantastic moments and I enjoyed it overall. But the show kinda ended up being an 8/10 for me when it could've easily been a 10/10 and one of my top 5 anime ever if it'd just kept the energy from the first season up.

Also not getting a SINGLE ass-shot of grown up Lou Roux was a CRIME.
>>
>>22544507
The age gap certainly is strange and I'm not sure why it exists, but anything that could be creepy about it is completely nullified by what a stand-up guy Goh is as husband and a partner, and how actually good and wholesome the relationship is. Even when there is conflict, which is inevitable in any relationship, it always gets worked out properly and he and Anna come out stronger and closer. There are absolutely zero vibes that Goh is just after underage ass, he fully views and respects Anna as a woman, a wife, and a partner.

Then tell me why modern anime is blessing us with masterpieces like "I Can't Believe My Sister is This Cute", "That Time I Was Reincarnated as Inuki-san's Dog", "Jobless Reincarnation", or "Harem in the Labyrinth of Another World". If I had my druthers, modern anime would just be real robot shows, space fleet battle shows, fun mecha for kids, and some pulpy OVAs with the remaining budget, all in glorious cel animation and with a very, very high bar for writing.

I mention this time and again but I worry that the 2000s era of Godannar, GaiKing, Shin Jeeg, Heroic Age etc are gonna wind up as some kind of lost generation. They're somehow too new to be nostalgia bait but they're also too old in order to get the new hotness push.
>>
>>22547564
Shame how Gaiking and Shin Jeeg are forgotten. They're way cooler than Gurren Lagann. It's also nice they got Mr. Xabungle himself, Akira Kushida, to sing in Gaiking.

>>22544463
I mean he keeps trying to kill it because he hates his fans, hates the franchise, and keeps having schizophrenic episodes and straight up psychotic breaks during the few times in production he starts out wanting to make a good product. So unironically it succeeding in spite of both it and his writing in general being shit is a failure.

Yeah boobs aside it's a good show if you like cute relationship stuff. Likable characters and first season plots are great fun. The mech action is nice too, the fights are solid. It's definitely ecchi as fuck, but if you're not actually *offended* by bouncing boobs and don't mind enjoying (or preferably, enjoy) hot girls in skimpy outfits served alongside your cute relationship story with giant monster fighting, you'll enjoy it.

There is one very frustrating thing about it, and for some reason, several other anime from the 2000's anime have that. From Clannad, Shakugan no Shana, Gundam Seed's Kira and Lacus (though they eventually do, over 20 years later that is), Deen's Fate/stay night, Full Metal Panic and .hack, they never show a kiss scene for the main couple, and if they do, it's offscreen.

It's a lot like High School DxD a decade later. Not only it has great fanservice, it is also a good action show on its own, with enjoyable characters, awesome combat and a well-established story.

The only based choice. Every ecchi anime from now on should have them from now on, as fanservice without payoff is frustrating and pointless and every hentai nowadays is total shit (and has always been), especially in animation.
And Godannar should've had those. Even pic related, which was just as raunchy and ecchi as that and released around the same time period, had those.

I just finished the PS2 game today. It's really fun; I think it's a must-play for any Godannar fan.
It's short and shallow and quite janky. (1v2 fights are always really awkward in fighting games.) I could imagine being very disappointed if I paid full price for it back in the day. But nowadays when you can download it for free it's just a treat.
The gameplay is surprisingly sound and well designed; every character has Gill's Resurrection super from Third Strike, but you can steal meter by throwing, which leads to a kind of interesting cat-and-mouse dynamic. I don't think we'll be seeing it on the main stage at EVO anytime soon, but for casual fun you can do way, way worse.
I think the difficulty is in a good spot. I play a lot of fighting games so I went for hard, and I got what I asked for. The final boss in particular is just disgusting. It never quite reached "fuck this game I hate it forever now" levels but it got close. If you aren't big into fighting games I'd recommend starting on normal. (There are some special unlocks for beating hard mode.)
The game has plenty of special treats for fans; there's a nice amount of new Kimura art throughout and a few small new story tidbits. The big draw of the game is the (semi?)-famous alternative ending, which you can see in the spoilered image if you aren't planning on playing. (Looks like Gou has a long night ahead of him!)
I was also impressed by how much stuff from the show made it in. They don't have absolutely everyone (sadly) but there are some hilarious surprising inclusions like the guy in the school mini robot who thinks if he beats Anna in a battle she'll go on a date with him. He's so weak you can kill him in one hit.

It's not making my best games of all time list really soon, but I'm happy I played it.
