>>15635628
better Macross than Macross
Does /m/ read? Are there any novels out there that deal with mechs? I just really want to read something that deals with robots that look like robots, and not cyborgs that look like humans but some weird quark, like they type really fast, makes them "inhuman." Am I aiming for the starts on this one? I need to write it myself, don't I? Man. Boo.
>Does /m/ read?
Obviously not, since the mixed feelings on G-Reco were linked directly to people not being able to understand more than one thing at once.
>Are there any novels out there that deal with mechs?
Classical sci-fi. Like, the whole genre. If you want to start small, Memetrip Troopers and War of the Worlds have mecha. I, Robot is Asimov and /m/.
Ignoring that, I'm sure there's a few standouts (Japanese, likely), but the most easily found books are garbage (and in some cases non-stop dipshit references that /m/en would groan at since 70s robots aren't obscure here)
>I just really want to read something that deals with robots that look like robots, and not cyborgs that look like humans but some weird quark, like they type really fast, makes them "inhuman." Am I aiming for the starts on this one?
Yes, you're aiming for the "starts." I, Robot started the "Am I human?" thing GitS likes to play around with. Or you could scrounge up some old books with goofy titles and robots on the cover.
>I need to write it myself, don't I? Man. Boo.
Fuck off, tumblr. Nobody cares unless you have something to present to the class.Solid bait

How about 80s Battletech novels. I like them. I also like Gibson cyberpunk, but from what you posted, I doubt you'll feel the same.
>>15634005
If you haven't read the book you posted in your OP, I have and it's pretty good. The cover caught my eye for sure. The robot's aren't sentient, but they are a big part of the story. There's a very small part where one of the military chicks has a moment with her robot unit, she hallucinates that it talks back to her, a little like the movie Her, where the AI is alive. But they never come back to it, which I thought, of course, was the best part.
What are some /m/ shows that are currently being subbed? (have been updated in the past year)
Dragonar
Daimos
Great Mazinger
Might Gaine
Dendoh
>>15628280
>(have been updated in the past year)
Oh, So just Might Gain
series that I am sure have been updated in the last year
>Ginguiser
>Great Mazinger
>Gakeen
>Raideen
>Dancougar: Burning Epilogue
other than that I need to check
What major changes to this movie would you expect if it had been a spiritual successor to the entire trilogy (0079, Zeta, and ZZ) instead of just the original series?
Fuck off.
>>15646155
For what purpose?
CCA sucks.
What's the best Gundam so I can watch it
>>15646119
It's called Votoms, and you can watch it on kissanimeā¢
SEED and SEED Destiny.
MSG 0079, MSG 0080: War in the Pocket, or MSZG are probably the best.
No seriously, why would she recklessly take off and kill Astonaige, a character who had been in 2 previous series, to go out into battle and "save Amuro" while actually doing nothing except getting killed by a scrub like Hathaway?
What the FUCK.
CCA is a shitty movie.
It only has good animation but that's literally it.
The movie shouldn't have has any characters but Char and Amuro because literally everyone else behaved like such a humongous retard it's hard to believe they're even human beings
Tomino women.
This is literally the best show ever. Gundam sucks in comparison.
Yeah, sure. Some completely mediocre show that's aping shows from the 70s that are much cooler than itself is definitely much better that a successful franchise that has completely different tone than itself. Remind me again when Gurren Lagann got tons of sequels and spin-off manga? lol
>>15643666
>666
It's an alright show. But I have no problems with someone thinking GL is actually the best mecha, my dear Satan.
>>15643691
It doesn't need any because it achieved what Gundam could never achieve in 1 season; being good

>Why won't anyone answer my question?
Try being specific, especially about your materials and process. Post pictures whenever possible; even if the kit/part looks bad, you are more likely to get help posting pictures.

== THICK MS GROUPBUILD ==
Build a kit of your choice that's heavily armored, and thick in the thighs/arms/torso/general area. Examples include:
>Dom + Dom Variants
>The O
>Virtue/Seravee Gundams
>Gusion/Man Rodis
>Full Armor gundams (If they're heavily armored, and not guns strapped everywhere like the FA Unicorn)
Non-Bandai kits are allowed, so feel free to whip out a Frame Arms kit or something and work with that as long as you make it thicc as fuck.
Start Date: 6/15
End Date: 8/31
>>15636813
Good work, you made that shitty kit look like a decent poster.
Does anyone have the translations of the cards or more info (images, sets).
I remember seeing a thread with info about these cards
Are there any mechas that could be beaten by a T-rex?
Any with an exposed cockpit
>>15646565
TSFs probably suck enough shit to fail
I have a better question: are there any mechas that could be beaten by a hobo?
Flint, Ansem, and Kino. The greatest Gundam protagonists.
>>15645421
> Flint
I don't know any Flint. I know a Frito though.
>>15645421
That's not our lord and saviour.
>>15645421
Better than what felcher gundam gave us.
They're still at it

And?
It's just a radio.
what the fuck is your problem?
I fucking hate exaids, but it won't go away if I blog about it.
What do they even talk about?
Remember when bruno mattei was /m/
also post italian /m/
>>15644423
I'm gonna side with the Japanese on this one and say CyberRobo is a better name.
>>15644445
Yeah it's less generic.
>>15644423
is that like Predator but with Robocop
All his stuff is gone.
