What the fuck happened?
I was really enjoying it up to the halfway point and then suddenly it took a deep nosedive in quality and pacing. Did they not have enough episodes or something? I mean fuck, the conflicts didn't even get resolved in the last few episodes.
I would've put this right behind Frontier as the best Macross (which I have tied with SDF Macross) and above Zero, 7, and Plus had it kept up past 12-13 episodes and didn't crash and burn so hard.
For the first time I actually liked the younger love interest character over the older one in the entire series, and the music that came out of Delta was good too. The characters were all likeable. I never really thought I'd like Walkure because of idolshit, but they really made each of them as good characters.
Would Delta have been fixed had it had more than 26 episodes?

The show was originally supposed to be the first half + a movie to wrap things up. They decided to extend the show to two cours instead. They then just half-assed the second half by stretching out what was supposed to be the plot of the movie.
Delta having too few episodes isn't the problem, the problem is it had too many episodes for the amount of plot they had.

It doesn't help that there is going to be a new entry for the upcoming anniversary, making all of this moot and redundant.
It's Valentine's Day! Celebrate the greatest romances in /m/ history.
Only the finest.
Happy Valentine's, /m/.
Even cute anime lesbians love the Gundam.
Chirico x Rochina forever in my heart.
I'll be honest, this was cringe af desu.
Why has /m/ became a shitposting central?
>>15239308
Because /m/ is slowly dying of starvation, and its becoming inevitable that the board itself will be pruned and we get folded into /a/. There are not enough posters on /m/ to keep the board moving at a healthy rate. This leaves us vulnerable to a small number of trolls holding the entire board hostage, because a single person with nothing better to do can cripple a dozen threads at once and maintain that for days of sustained shitposting.
This is made worse by the fact that, strictly speaking, we don't get that much new content. Every anime season we are lucky if we get three new shows we can talk about, and its a miracle if more than one of them is actually any good. For a board of our size, that leaves a lot of dead airtime that gets filled with retreading old ground and picking at old wounds. Also known as the "the same three Gundam and Eva threads every day over and over again, sometimes multiple copies being alive at the same time".
The board simply isn't sustainable as anything other than a stagnant pool of shitposting the same old shit. This has been true for a while, but its a problem that grows worse with age because any novelty the topics might have had gets worse and worse for lack of any actually new ones. And over time, the confrontational and contrarian nature of the trolls has itself become our 'board culture' and anyone who wants to have a non-shitty discussion gets told to go back to [website], because we apparently LIKE slathering ourselves in our own stale shit.
As far as I can tell, there isn't actually any cure of this. There isn't any way to draw in a larger and more active userbase without more content, and its not like we can just wish new mecha shows into existence. Our choices are to wait until we get folded back into /a/, or pray that Hiro creates a more general scifi board and we get folded into that instead.

Agreed
>Great Mazinger
>Mazin Emperor G
>Shin Tetsuya
This is a perfect time for them to make Great-hen.
I mean, you don't even need much. Just 3 OVA episodes would have been enough to finish the Mazinger story. Even Terada held out so long for Great-hen and in the end he had to resort to fan fiction.
Instead we're getting some dumb Toei anime movie that will probably disappoint.
While it would be cool for a Shin Great to happen due to enthusiasm for Mazin Emperor G (and he could get it in the show as a midseason upgrade), I don't see it happening.
>>15237719
>I don't see it happening.
Yeah but it's not like they can't have it happen.
Great Mazinger seriously needs to come back in anime form.
>>15237710
Considering how garbage Shin was, I'm pretty sure more in the same vein would be a bad idea.
>>15237769
>Great Mazinger seriously needs to come back in anime form
Why?
>I've never betrayed anyone in my entire life
>Except for one of my close friends and the countless men I used to my advantage while I needlessly sent them to the slaughter for my personal agenda, even though they had nothing to do with the Zabi family and were only following orders so they can put bread on the table for their families.

PROTIP: Char is a jerk
its almost as if Char is a delusional retard
>>15231684
Do you guys think Char went to heaven or hell when he died?
Why is Claudia the only one wearing a green uniform? She should the threated equally and have the same uniform as the rest of the crew.
Also why is Lisa her superior, doesn't make any sense. Lisa is younger than Claudia. Lisa has a higher rank just because she is white.
Also why was Roy the only one killed? Is it because he dated a black woman?
Macross/Robotech is so racist.
Take this particular form of comedy over to robotechx, I'm sure they'll get a laugh out of it.
AND WE

ARE THE CRYSTAL GEMS
How come he wasn't a newtype? His sister was one, and he displayed newtype-like charisma on several occasions.
Did he have the potential, but simply didn't awaken his abilities?
>>15244935
He put the mask on too soon and made it out of the wrong material. It filtered out the Minovsky particles that would have activated his newtype abilities.
Too obsessed with wearing women's panties to discover his Newtype abilities.
>wanting to be a Newtype
Are there any other examples of mechs where the pilot is kept suspended in what amounts to an artificial womb, controlling the mech through a neural interface?

Dear /m/, Please stop shitposting this image in every anime related thread whether or not it's related to the OP.
Sincerely, /wsr/
Zeta a shit.
>>15243785
>Dear /m/
It's just one retard.
>>15243788
Agree
Why she had only a silent cameo in Zeta?
>>15243658
actress was out of the country
>ill fall into this bait
She was out of the country soing a shitload of Hunting Safaris
>>15243658
because she has a boring non war life
Batch cominghigh level CS classes suck gimme a break
Remember that the whole series blurays has been retranslated now's a good time to watch Ideon I guess
Do Dunbine when it comes out bro
>>15243638
Let the man do what he wants. The last thing we want is him getting to burnt out and never coming back.
Oh shit, been meaning to watch this finally. Can't wait.
/v/irgin here, I was wondering if there were any jrpg's or action games that allow for
custo/m/ization to the point where you could make a Kamen Rider like character.
Pic related
It's Tales of Zesteria, I customed the shit out of the items in game. No mods, just desperate attempts.
>>15242073
Is there really nothing anyone can think of, in the vastness of /v/idya, that offers such customization? Really?
>>15242324
learn to mod then
PSO2
Soul Calibur V
Rumble Fighter (It's shit)
Suits that didnt deserve to job, zeek thread
I don't think it actually got destroyed, might have blown up in the simulation Christina ran but the actual battle outside Libot I believe it got 2 kills and none shot down.
What have you been reading recently, /m/? Currently going through Break Blade.
Also can anyone recommend me some good mecha mangas? Cause right now this is the only one i have to read aside from Buster Dress
>mfw I already read almost all of them
