Sure, the more manga they bring, the more people will realize what a big hack he is. Since most of them are only familiar with his anime adaptations.

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.

***Graze Group Build***
Rules:
Pick any 1/144 or 1/100 kit from the Graze family (Pic Related), and paint and customize it. As far as customizing it, I'm going to place a limit on that. The limit is 50% additions to the kit.
To define 50%, look at it like this, you could take a Graze Ritter and replace the arms (including shoulders), legs, and backpack and I'd call that 50%. I'm not counting handheld bits in that. If you're unsure of something please ask in IRC, the thread, or email.
Start Date: 12/1/16
Due Date: 3/1/17
Submissions go to
[email protected]
Submission format
Please submit photos in jpg via a compressed file (zip, rar, or 7zip), please don't link images to imgur or photobucket or the like. Please also include some WIP photos of the kits being constructed/painted/etc as validation that it's your custom.
PRIZE:

Damn it Anon, wait until it hits page 7 or 8. It was still on page 6.
Macross Plus is one of my all time favorite anythings for the following reasons:
- One of the finest examples of hand drawn animation in mecha animation, especially in the combat sequences.
- Dat misguided 90's futurism.
- The YF-19 is the sexiest transforming fighter jet/robot ever and I want to fuck it.
- The visual storytelling in scenes like the fistfight, when the stuck up designer of the YF-19 grins at the screen (he's supposedly watching with disdain) when his plane breaks the arm of the competition. Also in that scene, the SFX work is amazing. The sound of metal warping/failing when the arm breaks is the icing on the cake.
- The music, good god. Especially "Dog Fight."
- The high personal stakes mixed with playfulness of the final dogfight, like they're finally just having at it and convinced they're trying to finally kill each other once and for all, but of course they really aren't.
- I'm just gonna say it, the dub is amazing. Bryan Cranston does an amazing job with it. There's a reason it was shown in Japan in theaters with subtitles for some showings.
- Minimal worldbuilding info dumps, yet you see the cratered surface of the Earth and know exactly what it means without being told.
Any other thoughts or images or schematics or whatever y'all wanna share?
Man, fuck you. Thought this was going to be a Tenchi thread.

Don't worry, they were all killed the Day Fire Rained from the Sky or whatever it was called.

What do you armour your vehicles with in a sci-fi world?
Machine Cells so it's self-repairing.
Space titanium.
Speed.
>self -detonating your Gundam
You don't understand the STRATEGY ok?!
JUST WILD BEAT it ok?!
Nonsense, it's the ultimate tactic.

Doing some reading on the Japanese Internet I discovered that Jap otaku think Stand Alone Complex is really bad and Innocence is great. I can understand thinking that about Innocence since some parts of it absolutely are great, but I don't understand such a negative opinion of SAC. What gives?
>>15142828
Other way around.
I can understand not liking SAC since it's very plain and kinda boring, but come on. Innocence is a fucking parody of Oshii's own movies.
maybe they enjoy Innocence ironically?
>>15142828
Did they say why? I haven't seen Innocence in a WHILE but I certainly remember liking SAC much better
>>15142930
Innocence looks fantastic and very distinct from its contemporaries so I understand liking it. I'm aware that the consensus in English-speaking fandom is that SAC is very good and Innocence has a bad script, but Japan does not seem to agree.
>>15142936
Some did but my Japanese isn't good enough to understand their reasoning. I got that they think SAC is for newfags and that they found the SF parts unconvincing but I don't know their reasons for either
Greetings /m/en. I'm out of winter hibernation and I braved the woes of the holidays to bring you volume 2 of Gundam Katana.
Pardon the delay.
Big thanks to Delta as always for doing the shopping work.
There were a few items (read the volume to find out) regarding character names in this volume, which were my fault for not reading ahead.
We are in possession of MSVR Ridden v13, so expect that next.

>>15141900
Thank you Nozaku. Your Gundam Legacy translations have made my play thru of G Generation Genesis even better.
Side note, what's the link to your pastabin mega-list?
>>15141934
I gotcha

>>15141900
Neat, I was starting to worry you had called it quits. Thanks for sticking around!

FUCK YES

Why did they bring back Shadow Moon only to kill him off in a few episodes later?
Do you prefer Black or RX as a design?
>>15141441Neither pilot survives.

the options are great, I guess?
Just finished NGE and The End of Evangelion for the first time. I thought after a while shinji would grow and change, becoming a better person. I thought wrong.
Tell me people of m. Does this spineless creepy faggot have a single redeeming quality? Am I missing something here?
He's a qt
>>15141178
>Does this spineless creepy faggot have a single redeeming quality?
Nope. He's the image of 1990s Japanese youth. That's all you need to know.
he's 14 what do you expect
Will it top 2199? Fukui is writing it
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RwOi_I0cEFU
>>15140121
>Will it top 2199
no, it will be good but not going to top 2199
>>15140121
nobody told me there was a spin-of for 2199, only learned about it when I saw a character for 2202 that I didn't know from the TV 2199...
Given how the first series ended this just really strikes unnecessary

I'm always joking about it but is this one legit? A real JoJo reference? IS AZALD KARS FROM BATTLE TENDENCY?
>>15140104Oh, and I just remember that Larri is Joseph
>>15140104
Joji Nakata did Enrico Pucci in Eyes of Heaven, so maybe.
ITT: Mechs that deserved more screentime
>>15139306
I love it. It's basically a Xabungle if they actually changed it's aesthetics to properly fit in with the rest of the technical design.
As much as I would like to see all the cussing and hilariously bad subs, does anyone know where I could watch the original Mazinger Z with good subs?
Buy the official DVDs by Discotek
>>15137653
>>15137655
That or torrent them.

Mirage was nice, we don't get female pilots in the triangles often.
