This is Sworgrader's current opponent, Dark Great Baan Gaan. Say anything about him.
He looks cooler as a villain
>>22550847Feels surreal seeing Goldy wield the Goldion Hammer.

>>22558624I like it a lot.
>>22558624I really like how the back cannons don't stick all the way over his shoulders. If he didn't have an animal head chest or the wings, I'd like him a lot better.

>>22558507I hope he'll be a friend soon. The monthly chapters throw me off a bit from emotional retention, but I'm really curious about where they're going to go next
>>22558979Based on the storytime from the last thread, they're travelling to another universe. >>22550247>>22550259I'm guessing either Baan Gaan or GaoGaiGar's universes are the ones they're traveling towards.
>>22558987N-no I get that, I meant I'm curious about which universe they're going to end up in. Probably going to make a big deal about the warp and pursuit, orienting themselves and final-page getting greeted by a familiar Brave friend, from how the pacing is going
>>22558989It will be GaoGaiGar's universe, not Baan Gaan. Baan Gaan appeared just to establish the dire state of things. I imagine it will have something to do with Triple O.
>>22559017Thank you, time-traveller-san, could I ask you for the dates of the Hakiaoh and Baan Gaan anime, or am I being too greedyCurious how this will effect canon as well, whether this is going to be "everything fated happens and they forget meeting Sworgrader+co" or if it will just override pre-existing events

>>22559028I imagine they'll get filled in on what's happening in the GGG universe and go on an adventure to save all the other universes.
>>22559038That's possible too, out of all the settings, the 3G crew are the most organized and well-equipped/funded, so they're probably the best ones to have a good idea of what's going on. Although another option is Exkaiser, who could maybe hear from his police buddies about the escaped prisoners he once captured? (I don't know how this show ended)

Been watching GaoGaiGar for the first time pretty unspoiled, and I just wanted to come in and say that the King J-Der debut might be one of the coolest sequences I have ever seen in mecha. Can't wait to see where this goes from here.
>>22561315https://files.catbox.moe/twtrlz.mp4
>>22561315Yeah, it's a pretty good moment.
>>22561315>>22561386Literally amazing. While J couldn't care about collateral damage at first after returning to his post as a Soldato, he later became a reliable ally for GGG after the third quarter ends.
>>22550837Great Goldran, how could you do this?
https://hobby.watch.impress.co.jp/docs/news/1581395.html
>>22561386I'll never get over how many frames they packed into his arm moving up
>>22561708Ah, the sakuga, it gets me every time I watch that scene, he just so looks so menacing because of the way he moves.

Im at episode 39 of GGG already and I don't want it to be over. It went by way too fast and I enjoyed it too much. I love how the big bad reminds me of Fisto and Hulk Hogan. Character designs are insane in this show and I love it. Soldat J has no right to be an asshole considering he was evil but damn he's so cool. King Jder is so cool. I do not know how to start conversations on this show because I've devolved (evolved?) Into a chuuni and I love almost everyone in this show. Already saw Jdecker and loved it too. I hate edgy shit so Im skipping Final and Betterman for now. What's the best Brave to watch next?
>>22561386I am the anon who just posted how much I love GGG and I need ro say I fucking goddamn love fingertip guns so much. Giant Robo, Gunbuster, Dragonceasar. Why are gun fingertips so goddamn cool holy shit
>>22562826Final still has J and King J-Der being badasses i.e. J Phoenix. You'll probably enjoy Goldran for the lighhearted antics or Da-Garn for a more "serialized" format.
https://twitter.com/dakssol_roko/status/1775570705670905864
>>22562826
>>22563046https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PRiN4YsXfa0
>>22530222Just leaves Da-Garn and Goldran left on the SMP-related kits.
>>22562826>I hate edgy shit so Im skipping Final and Betterman for nowWhat gave you the impression that Final was edgy? It's cut from the same cloth as GGG. I think it's honestly a fantastic ending to the anime, the final episode of the OVA is probably the most pure adrenaline I've ever seen pumped into 45 minutes.
>>22563084Agreed definitely. The beatdown on Palparepa and the Goldion Crusher scenes are some of favorite parts of GGG and mecha in general.
>>22562826I had a dream where I was urgently waking up to respond to thisBetterman certainly is a dark show, but not as edgy as you might think, it still has wholesome and ultimately positive moments. Also has a real banger of an ED. Final just ramps up in scale in terms of powers and enemies, it doesn't get any "edgier" than the last arc, which wasn't that edgy at all I think.I was recommended Da Garn after GGG and J-Decker, but I'm partial to Goldran. Da Garn's episodes all progress the plot, as mentioned, whereas Goldran episodic and is even more lighthearted, but gets really good.If you really really loved Power Rangers as a kid, you might like Dagwon, the main mechs are all human teenagers.
I just realized that since the Deathdrives in Bravern each represent different sins, Bravern is basically a Baan Gaan anime since in Baan Gaan the villains directly represent sin. In addition, you could draw parallels between Sperion and Superbia, both in name and character (they were both evil/representations of sin at some point but became good guys again). The hero robot also works with a special defense organization in both cases and has a toy-like form. 2024 really is the year of Baan Gaan! Brave Charge!
Anybody got toy ads of the Geisters? I'd like to see if they where just color changed Dinobots or where they retooled.
>>22564050They are straight-up recolored Dinobots, as in they are basically the same Diaclone figures but in black. And no, they are not fully released in toy form, so you have to customize them yourself. Only Dino Geist got a proper toy, and is an all-original mold.
>>22564065Well shit, guess I would have to make my own evil Dinobots then. Just how many Transformers are in the Brave Saga? Evil Dinobots, *Not Deathsaurs, *Not Dai Atlas, are the only ones I am aware of. Has there ever been an official crossover of Transformers and Brraves or no because Toei and Sunrise?
>>22564076Sky Garry to DeathgarrygunGalaxy Shuttle to Thunder DagwonGrandus to Dag BaseThose are the other examples I can think of.
>>22564084Also:>Deathsaurus to Red Geist>Sixshot to Kageru/Shadowmaru>Sonic Bomber to Revibarion/Hiryou/>Scorponok to Zazorigun>Dai Atlas to Goryou>several Micromaster playsets to various J-Decker buildings

I'm one of the anons who watching GaoGaiGar yesterday by marathonning the last 4 episodes and I loved it so much. I didn't expect the ending arc to make me as emotional as it did but I was tearing up near the end. Im going to wait awhile before I watch Final/GGG to kinda emulate the time apart from thr original airdates but also because the ending was just so good. The twist with Mikoto after you think everything was over was great.Was all that stuff about ZA POWA on jupiter based on 2001 a space odyssey?
>>22569692https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w4_5Dn2DWUc
>>22569696There's something about Mamoru's story near the end that both made me deeply nostalgic for my parents and childhood and instilled deep parental protection instincts. Gai losing his father and learning about Mikoto's loss of her parents too. It makes the hotblooded shit is very cathartic and moving.

>>22513045>>22513231>>22513681>>22513923Judging the poster with TV series/Star GaoGaiGar as the face of GGG, I'm not even sure if anything exclusive to Final or Hakaioh will be there in Sworgrader unless they're keeping those as a surprise.
>>22572870Fire Dagwon went through quite the change there.
>>22522327Besides Sworgrader, what are the few modern manga you consider worth reading?
>>22573451Speaking of Sworgrader, I read the afterword of Jinrouki Winvurga Rebellion explaining the abrupt cancellation of the original Winvurga manga coming from Tsunashima Shirou's publishers screwing him over twofold that he abandoned the original story and wrote Rebellion as a backup manga... with all sorts of negative implications that come with it. To no one's surprise, that, too, got cancelled because of its premise, and how the manga's eponymous Jinki who promised to take away Mashiro's virginity end up a female herself.Sorry if it's not Brave-related, but this is among the promises Shirou failed to keep. Hope Sworgrader doesn't share the same fate as his other works.
>>22573308Its Genesic Dagwon fanart
>>22573599>Tsunashima Shirou's publishers screwing him over twofold that he abandoned the original story and wrote Rebellion as a backup manga... with all sorts of negative implications that come with it. To no one's surprise, that, too, got cancelled because of its premise,Wait, we're not getting more Winvurga?
>>22573831Afraid so. Somehow we can't get ahold of more RAWs of Rebellion, but nobody seems to be supporting it that it led to its silent cancellation. Then he focused on making Darkness Heels: Lili (the Ultraman manga about the best Ultra-like rival characters), and now Sworgrader.
>>22573831>>22573913Know what? Forget what I said, it somehow is still going strong. Rebellion is already in Chapter 16, and Volume 2 is coming next week. Had to double check Shirou's Twitter for this, so false alarm.

Really, really late on this, but apparently Daiki Nakamura (Might Gaine and God Max's VA) lost his agency contract.https://natalie.mu/comic/news/566197Rough translation: "It has been announced that voice actor Daiki Nakamura has been terminated by his agency 81 Produce as of March 21.Today, March 22, 81 Produce posted the following text on its official website: "Notice Regarding Termination of Contract with Our Voice Actor. According to the report, the agency received a damage claim that power harassment, sexual harassment, and financial troubles existed at "Yume Koubou," a private school that Nakamura personally opened and operates. The firm, which was unaware of the opening of "Yume Kobo," confirmed the facts with Nakamura. In addition to apologizing, 81 Produce commented, "Even after terminating the contract with Daiki Nakamura, we will continue to confirm the facts with those involved in the private school 'Yume-Kobo' and respond to the damage claims with sincerity. We will continue to confirm the facts and respond to the parties involved in the private school "Yume-Kobo" in order to sincerely respond to the allegations."

>>22586693I know Photogrizer never got his own anime, but it feels weird seeing a "main" Brave having a huge lack of gold and red on it.
>>22586696It is strange given every other Brave has those colors, the intent was for all of the mechs to be in mostly grayscale colors. Like the fire engine and binnocular that seemed like the secondary add-on robo. Which, there isn't a combination between those two, is there? Feel like I would've remembered it if there was.
>>22586703*but the intent

>>22558532Agreed. The new headcrest helps.
>>22586573They're done in the sense you don't need to use crabstick subs for any of the episodes anymore, but some other episodes subs could be a lot better which is why those are being redone.

>>22592872Ooh, thanks for the Da Garn novels! Really appreciate that -- when I have more money I'm probably going to commission a translation of both them and the Dendoh novels.>the drama cd that was released alongside J-Decker's show and while translated beforeWhere can I find this translation?
>>22592954 (Me)Also I just remembered that there's a translated J-Decker manga chapter on Pinterest -- anyone know who did that and if any more was done? There's also this translated Brave Saga 2 manga page floating around in the archive, so I'm curious if any further work was done on that manga.
>>22592954The original translation came from tumblr years ago here https://chirlind.tumblr.com/post/76077942234/j-decker-cd-drama-translation but sadly the PDF itself is gone, I know fandom (yeah I know but choices are limited here) posted the transcript itself but not the timestampsthe YT channel I made years ago I did reupload the script to particular parts of the drama so maybe it can be retimed to this? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hipsLkgA12U&list=PLYokxyoxFECS2Jg9i7xBKtJxbsD0Mq0lS>>22592957I don't know who did the TL for that but I do know it came from a TV-Land magazine of some sorts, as for the Brave Saga manga TL I remember seeing something about a attempted TL here after I uploaded some by admission iffy scans of it 2 years back but you might have to dig through older desuarchive threads for it?

I wonder where this trailer goes after Layzer combines with Layhawk. I assume it's the Galdeliber, but the shape doesn't quite match up.
>>22599118Oh wow, yeah it looks like the trailer separates from it. You can see it on the bottom, while Layhawk looks like it just pops off the top. It's kind of like a launch pad then?
>>22599171Apparently it's a combined mode that serves as headquarters of some sort, but apparently it doesn't get used at all after Rayhawk combines with Layzer. Unless it's the Galdeliber, but the shape doesn't quite match.Also, have some Emperios.
>>22599341>Apparently it's a combined mode that serves as headquarters of some sort, but apparently it doesn't get used at all after Rayhawk combines with Layzer. Unless it's the Galdeliber, but the shape doesn't quite match.Huh, that's neat. But no, it does look like the trailer is just its own thing that acts as a base for Rayhawk to attach to. In the schematics you can also see the transformation guide for the condensed mode Rayhawk has when detached from the trailer when turning into the jet. The trailer has parts that move into different positions when combined with Hawk, but standalone it's just a trailer base.>Also, have some Emperios.Very cool! I finally got to unpack the other files and there's such good stuff. I keep forgetting that the DaiRazer vehicles are all gigantic in comparison, but the lineart for their individual combinations with Layzelber really showcases that.Shame these weren't in the book, they're ripped from the game, right?
>>22599362>Shame these weren't in the book, they're ripped from the game, right?The scans I posted are from >>22592872
>>22599392Yeah I got those. I was talking about the 2D render collage I posted there, doesn't seem like any of those made it in, though the lineart did.
>>22599398Oh, my bad. IIRC those are indeed rips from the game.Also, it's interesting that they were considering the option of combining all 5 robots into one single mecha. Too bad it didn't make it through.
>>22599412And of course, I forgot the image...
Had known for a good while over the last 4 years that Layzelber stuff would be mainly behind books and etc but entire details such as the transformation and some proto sketches really paint it home how the dude was SoL upon the game releasing, I feel bad for him to where its a miracle he even got a illustration in the Brave 30th calendar release
>>22599415>>22599412Makes it look like a Sentai mecha instead of a Brave mecha... The most robots required on a Great Brave is 3, unfortunately.
>>22599482Was it designed by a PLEX artist, by any chance?
>>22599412>>22599415Oh I think I remember seeing this before... it is interesting to see the early concept sketches like these when they're obviously brainstorming the first concepts. So DaiLayzelber was considered to have two forms to it at one point? A with the 3 vehicles alone, and B with Rayhawk? I can see why that was abandoned, since Dai seems like it was scaled up a lot from the initial sketches.Also, is that the trailer with a canon mode on the bottom pic? Doesn't seem like that made it either. The bottom also shows all of them combining individually with Layzer standalone too. So it seems like that was considered when the vehicles were also smaller and sized to Layzer.
>>22599482There's a missunderstanding here. It's 1 robot, Layzer, with multiple vehicles.Layzer + Hawk makes LayzelberThe 3 Dai vehicles all have their own combinations with Layzelber as add-ons (outlined in the top and middle chart) >>22599415It was also considered for them to combine with Layzer alone for individual combinations as more support weapons (outlined in the bottom chart)Layzer and the Dai vehicles all combined create Dailayzelber. It was then considered that they could combine with Layhawk as well, meaning it would just be four vehicles + Layzer.>>22599499Oh, corection: my bad, that's an early version of the tank, not the trailer.
>>22599510Also, it's funny that apparently the early name for Layzelber was Layzard (also Dai Layzer being named Layzer ∞).
>>22599560*Layzard ∞Silly me
>>22599560>LayzerJust needed an "n" to make it Layzner
>>22599341So, regular Emperios doesn't have a vehicle mode at all?

For the Tabletop Braves out there we added Fighbird, Draias, Da Garn, Seven Changer and Red Geist to the MechaStellar roster.
Watching Might Gaine and towards the end all of the sudden Maito is in high school? Is there any explanation for this or should we assume that he has been in school the whole series and it was just not shown?
