Nice, I always wanted to know where that armor was from, but I never bothered asking.

I downloaded what's out of Ninku, seems like the subbers may have stopped though. I'll watch the 30 or so episodes that are put, then read the manga and watch the rest raw.

I thought Macross 7 was god awful. I got to the point where they reached the planet that the other ship failed to and I stopped.

Every episode was the same. Bad guys attack, head band goes out and plays music, bad guys run away.

It was like watching paint dry

Goddamn that fight scene made me nostalgic. War in the Pocket was short but great. It's amazing how for an OVA, it told a much better story than some of the main 50 episode series with all its dragging filler bullshit.

That being said, 8th MS, War in the Pocket, and Stardust Memory were all fucking great.

Plus is one of my all time favorites. Obviously the animation is incredible, but I thought the characterization was excellent as well. The three leads were more interesting and written with depth by the end of the 2nd episode than most characters from shows with 24 eps.

>>152913673
I guess I just wasn't a big fan of the story or characters. Better than many others, sure, but it didn't have any of the charm of SDF. I say all this, but I don't think lowly of it at all; I've seen it many times and Sharon Apple's concert is seriously one of the coolest things I've seen animated.

I'm in the middle of Zeta, why is the plot fucking impossible to follow compared to MSG? I barely even understand what they're fighting about. I didn't even think they were in a shooting war in the beginning, and I have no idea how they transitioned into one.

>>152913770
Dunno the fuss about the Moon Moon 2-parter. It's just 2 episodes and Chara's fun autism as opposed to usual cyber Autism is, well, fun.

>>152913727
I will never get why people defend anything from ZZ. The comedic parts were a mess, the drama was a mess, every returning character gets shit on, and Judau was a fucking worthless dullard that just happens to be the most specialest newtype ever.

Zeon lose to EF during One Year War. New corrupt elite group Titan forms within EF. Remaining Zeons form AEUG to fight back against Titan. That's the gist of it in the beginning and middle.

Wait till you get to the end with more sides appearing.

>>152913817
Well, I sort of get where you are coming from, I've been there.

Basically, Tomino went too far in turning everything upside down. Think of Char, now he's actually mentor figure and one of the protagonists when in MSG he was an antagonist.

Tomino tried to turn everything so upside down that he turned upside down the way he tells his story. In MSG we were discovering political environment with characters, we were first learning about them, then politics.

Here we are first introduced to politics instead and they are often driving force behind characters and their dramas.

All you really need to know is that Earth Federation is buncha cucks, Titans are the bad guys and AEUG are the good guys. Haman is the best

>>152913972
I understand what's going on in a literal sense, I'm just saying it's poorly established. All the major plot points so far haven't been grounded in any kind of significant explanation, like why did they attack Jaburo? It was sort of loosely implied that that would end the war, but it's obvious that was never the case, regardless of whether they had moved out of Jaburo or not. It just felt like an arbitrarily thrown together plot point so that they could develop the the characters more.

Which is okay. Zeta has much more nuanced characterization than MSG did, though MSG's was bolder and so far more effective. I just feel like the plot making sense is totally incidental in Zeta while it was a much higher priority in MSG. It's strange to me how different of a show it is in terms of its construction.

>>152914166
The soundtrack is arguably the most technically impressive part of the series. It's really smooth and feels really reminiscent of James Bond to me.

Personally, so far I think MSG is the best. I dunno, it just hit the right notes with me.

But I think I really need to rewatch Zeta to really appreciate it, because I could not get into it for like 17 episodes.

Best thing about Zeta is weirdly fashion

Oh, the design is fantastic all around. Just the mechanical in-cockpit design was a huge leap forward from MSG. It's so much more cinematic, the normal suits are cool as fuck, and all the little screens and doodads are beautiful. Went from everything looking goofy in MSG straight to cool as fuck in Zeta.

I'm only like halfway through Zeta but I already doubt that anything else in the canon is gonna be as good as MSG. It's a ridiculous statement because I haven't watched the rest of it yet, but the idea that anything is gonna top pic related or Texas just seems unlikely.

I think they actually removed duel with M'queve in the movies.

One of my favorite episodes was Amuro meeting his mom. An interesting angle about pacifism.

Same could be said about Amuro meeting his father. It's an obvious, but effective joke around how every mech MC gets a mech from their crazy scientist relative. Well, Amuro's dad is so cuhrazy he lives in a junkyard without giving a single fuck about his family.
