Mechatsuku: Fuji TV project where they make a mecha anime via crowdsourcing. They've already chosen five proposals and attached character and mecha designs to them, and put promo videos up. The video with the most views will be made into a full (probably 13 episode) series.

Enthusiast a best

For kids? Because looks cheap and mild

Buddy Complex was healing, especially if you watch it right after Valvrape.

>Enthusiast! -The Custom takes place in a world where custom robots race parkour-style through the Tokyo streets. The main character is 29-year-old Masaaki Takahashi who one day sees a "mech battle race" on the way home from work, and it ignites his passion. His two main rivals are the charismatic racer Yusuke Nishijima and the genius high school girl Chihiro Sone.

>RS Project (originally proposed as "F.S. Project" for "Find Storage") takes place in a parallel world that resembles modern Japan, but where alien lifeforms known as "Kikō" (Trick) fell from the sky ten years prior and started attacking humanity. The main characters are a pilot, Mizuru Mido, and her assistant, Fuu Sagami, who use a mecha made out of an enemy's remains. However, battle causes memory loss for the pilot, and they must unravel the mystery as to why.

>Day Break Dean-Drive takes place in the distant future, when humanity is in a reconstruction period after losing its technological advancements. One day, monsters attack from the sky and 14-year-old Asuna Seo loses her home and mother. She must overcome her trauma and become a pilot for one of the mecha that has been excavated from ancient ruins to fight back.

>>122518767
>Star Storks takes place 10,000 years in the future, when Mecha are protecting earth from aliens and trying to revive humanity from extinction. Finally, a human child is created, but only one. Three mecha—walking heavy tank Gimlet, mechanical knight Daiquiri, and highly intelligent faster-than-light rocket Moscow Mule—are assigned to escort the child to another galaxy in hopes of finding other humans.

>deadEndSparks takes place in the near future, after giant monsters attacked and were fought off by a "super hero team" of mecha pilots. Years later, however, a terrorist organization called "triple negative" starts using the mecha. The story stars Kazuma, who has chūnibyo. He has lost his memory and doesn't know that he really was the leader of the super hero team that saved the planet.

I kinda want this.

Original proposals

>http://mechatsuku.estar.jp/result#2nd-result

>Star Storks: The proposal does say that the entire point of the show is to show off how cool mecha is (inertia, mechs with weight, complex transformations and gimmicks, AI starting to learn about emotions) but none of that was in the PV so eh. Doesn't help that the designs look like shit from a TCG or something. Story is composed of three parts, 1: Escape from Earth with a robot army fighting against space spider monsters. 2: The three robots spend ten years taking the last human child on a journey to find more humans. They end up deciding to jump into a black hole to get to another Earth. 3: The other Earth had experienced a robot uprising before and hate robots. The three robots decide to pretend to be evil and say they have a human child hostage and are destroyed by the other Earth's humans, but the child lands on the planet safely and lives happily ever after. I'm sorry but this sounds fucking terrible.

>Enthusiast's proposal says it wants to put emphasis on the fun of customizing your machine, but I'm not sure if that'd work with something fictional (maybe that's why they're car-like, so that they can toss in car lingo with the modding stuff?). And the proposal clearly states that it features "parkour action". No story details, just simple profiles of the characters and the setting.

>Dead End Sparks: Story jumps back and fourth between past (team of super robots fighting giant monsters) and present (supposed leader of the super robot team fighting against a human rebellion of some sort). Turns out the healer guy who supposedly died in the past faked his death and is the mastermind, main character is a clone, his original went nuts because he killed his girlfriend with friendly fire, blah blah blahhhh

>>122519101
>FS (RS) Project: Mysterious aliens invade and all our weapons are useless on them and holy shit it's just Titan/Arpeggio/Aldnoah/every single fucking thing lately all over again. Main character is the co-pilot to the girl who pilots the robot, and the robot eats her memories. PLOT TWIST: HER MEMORIES ARE FINE, IT'S EATING HIS MEMORIES. Also he's actual an alien who was brainwashed by humans. He angsts and cries and refuses to get on the robot until he finds a diary with his missing memories and he realises he loves her but whoops too late she got herself killed so he gets into a robot and kills all the enemies losing all of his memories in the process THE END. Bawwwww so sad.

>Deandrive: The world seems like an entirely different one but actually takes place in the far future of Earth after civilization was wiped out once, the enemies are silicon life-forms created by the previous civilization of Earth that were dumped out in space because they couldn't be controlled, where they gained sentience and got mad at mankind and want revenge. The robots' sentience don't come from AI, they have the same silicon-based life inside of them. Main character's robot does some understanding with the enemies and he goes off into space with them because the robot always has to part with the main character in these stories.

Looks cheap as fuck plus idiotic love triangle.

>>122519291
Is not a mecha without a idiotic love triangle

>>122520121
Wait a second, I'm trying to prove you wrong. Gundam Wing didn't have any love triangle I think.

>>122520227
Sure as hell did not stop the romance from being stupid as fuck

>>122514616
Looks lame, at least the mechs aren't 3DCG

>>122520301
Please don't move the goalpost.

>>122520227
gundam wing was yaoi bait

>>122520227
Wufei love gundam, who named after ded wife, but he also love treize. What now faggot?

>>122520410
Because fujoshi are rabid about something doesn't mean it was made as bait for them. Wing characters are super straight.

If that is the best they can put up, I don't even want to see them going FULL QUALITY.

>>122520904
The video was made by two college kids. If it's chosen the show will be animated by an actual studio and aired on Fuji TV.

>2D Mecha still isn't dead

Horry shit

It's losing ;_;

They moved to 14 years old protags to catter hard to boys the same age after G flopping.

>>122521353
Female MCs for mecha are rare. What has there been recently besides that and Ange (and RnL isn't that recent anymore)?

>>122521507
Great Gattai Kisaragi

There's a thread over at /m/ and there were further details from a talkshow on Friday.

>Deandrive is the only one made by amateurs, the rest are all by industry professionals yet they still looks like shit

>>122516700
It's a bummer that the mecha genre has produced such bad stuff over the past few years that anons now think any show with giant robots will either be a trainwreck or boring.

>>122514616
>>122521310
Mecha designs look like garbage in all of these

>>122522113
More like people don't want to watch the mecha shows that aren't either completely boring or trainwrecks.

>Reused footage in the trailer
It's already dead.

>>122522208
But mecha can be so good when done right. Unfortunately, the last legit decent mecha show was Majestic Prince, maybe Gargantia, but the latter wasted a lot of its potential.

>>122522307
Well, Fafner Exodus is airing now. Based Xebec saved mecha.

>>122522307
I wouldn't even call Gargantia a mecha show.

Sure there is Chamber but how much did he do? And its not like he was that relevant.

If these words had any meaning left
It has long since been lost.

>>122522352
Fafner was boring as hell. Is Exodus any different?

>>122522561
Yes.
