G-Recofags were always telling people who disliked their show to stick to Aldnoah Zero, but honestly, I think both shows were equally terrible.

In your honest opinion, /a/, which one was the worst anime, G-Reco or Aldnoah Zero?
>>
>>153919530
Aldnoah Zero. At least G-Reco has nice designs.
>>
>>153919530
Iron Blooded Orphans
>>
>>153919530
G-Reco is literally the worst work of fiction even written.
>>
I loved watching G-reco for some reason.
>>
>>153919530
both are tolerable and have things going for them, Active Raid does now
>>
At least G-Reco had some ambition, even if I don't think it succeeded at it. And it looked nicer to boot.

Meanwhile Aldnoah was just a much worse SEED clone.
>>
>>153919530
G-Reco was wacky and fun at times. It was honestly pretty enjoyable and letting it sink in since it aired only made my opinion of the show better.
>>
>>153919856
>does not
>>
>>153919636
Are you really sating that after watching A/Z?
>>
>>153919530
Both were equally retarded, but at least G-Reco was intentionally funny and had a nice production design.
>>
>>153919530
Valvrave. G-Reco had Armorzagan and AZ had most of my fetishes across five different women so I can't dislike either
>>
>>153919936
>G-Reco was intentionally funny
No, Tomino is just senile and autistic.
>>
>>153919530
G-Reco had a blunder of an ending, but overall it was enjoyable. And it even got pretty good mid-way through.

Aldnoah was good for about 6-7 episodes of the first season and everything after that, especially that embarrassment of a second season, was complete dog shit.
>>
>>153919530
Both are great though
>>
>>153919989
Only decent thing about Aldnoah was the final battle. And they completely ruined it in the second season.

G Reco is a mess but still something an anime fan can admire for its minor qualities like worldbuilding and art.

Aldnoah Zero just got worse and worse and had hardly anything going for it as an anime.

Greco goes above and beyond ignoring any rule and common sense about storytelling, direction and character writing. It's the worst thing I've ever experienced.
>>
>>153920029
I agree with the first 6-7 episodes being alright. The first three were damn solid, the next few were passable but worse with the repetitive Martian of the Week battles, and then it jumped the shark with the Hime cliffhanger/fakeout.

The only thing I liked about Valvrave was that his robot was literally powered by rape and the zero-g fist fight on the moon in space suits. That scene is still one of the unintentionally funniest things I've seen in an anime.

G-reco was just kinda boring, but AZ's blandness was just insulting after how much it was hyped up by Aniplex. Holy shit the hubris of the team that made AZ is galling, they actually claimed they would surpass gundam.
>>
>>153919530
Hard to so anon, they were both so fucking awful.
>>
>>153920662
I watched them at basically the same time. I got far more enjoyment out of SEED than A/Z, and that's taking into account Destiny.

>so if it was a clone
All it was missing was for Inaho and Slaine to be childhood friends or something.
>>
>>153919530
Aldnoah takes the shitcake. G-reco was fun, had an "interesting"directing at times and was overall unremarkable as another Gundam spin-off.
>>
>>153920885
Then I'm sorry you have tragedy for taste, but objectively A/Z was superior to SEED in every respect, up to and including OST, plot, and character design. SEED had flashing lights and people with triangles for skulls.

On /a/ maybe but not on /m/ and given the type of shows that get constant threads here (VVV, CA, Try) why would they consider it a con? G-Reco threads were fun while A/Z were filled with retardation, shipperfaggotry and delusion that amounted to absolutely nothing in the end.

That's how bad it did.

Because they know instinctively that IBO is better than their shitshow and they're terrified everyone else will clue into it and laugh at them. Seeing as how they can't even conjure enough evidence to show how or why their trash show is even as good as A/Z is proof of their insecurity.

>>153919530
I hate to admit it but G-reco is worse, it was more entertaining but theres really little defending how god awful the writing got near the end. Aldnoah shit the bed early on too but there was alot more....coherency to the whole thing even if it was bad, G-reco kind of said fuck it in the final 5 episodes and turned into a fever dream rehash of Char's counterattack.

I want to say G-reco at least tried something different, but it didnt, it was a rehash of turn-A's plot and morals but done in a far more offensive and delusional light with the final stretch just being char's counterattack minus the asteroid aka the only good part of chars counterattack. Music and animation were nice but that cant redeem this mess of not only a gundam but a show in general.

I forgot the 1 thing that pushes G-reco over the edge of being bad to terrible, if it were just a mess it'd be forgettable, but Bellri is the single most sociopathic protagonist in the entire franchise and kills countless innocents all whilst blaming them for it and never accepting responsibility nor getting comeuppance. The whow was so tonally deaf when it came to his actions that it came off as downright offensive at points especially when bellri killed his teacher.

>>
>>153923962
yes it does, Part of its entertainment came in how bad it was at points. The final episode i legit hilarious especially when that old due just gets hit from behind with a gundam foot and flung off a cliff.

Entertainment is something to consider, but something can be entertaining for a plethora of reasons and not exactly for flattering reasons. I'd consider G-gundam more entertaining than turn-A due to its fast pace and absurd set pieces but as an overall package turn-A is better. Aldnoah and g-reco are just 2 awful shows in the same example.
>>
>>153923952

Another entertaining aspect of G-Reco threads is seeing idiots fail to explain what makes it bad.

>>
>>153924219
It feels like turn-A but with the anger and aggressiveness of zeta gundam which doesn't mesh well together at all. its a shame cause G-reco's world looks pretty interesting, i say looks cause they did fuck all with it in favor of shoving fodder mech fights in your face over actualy world building and character development. The best episodes of the show came near the end of the first cour where the show actually slowed the fuck down its pacing and showed how characters lived in this world outside of the soldiers. It made me think it was about to improve when watching it ongoing but the show just went back to its frantic pacing and angry tone immediately afterwords.
>>
>>153924272
Gainer at least had likable characters, the story was a fucking trainwreck but there were still character arcs with satisfying conclusions that made the show worth picking up even with its narrative shortcomings. Good characters go a long way to save shows and in g-reco's case it basically had.....like klim and that was it.
>>
It's kind of sad that the only reason G-reco is relevant is for shitposting purposes. I was really looking foreword to it before it came out.

Aldnoah, it's very premise has holes in it. It couldn't even hold itself together for the first 3 episodes.

No there wasn't. One of the biggest plot points in that show (Hanzo killing Gainer's parents) gets cast aside like nothing, the only character with a satisfying resolution to his character arc was Asuham due to how utterly pointless his actions were by the end of it.

Dude, I even did the math (well, Excel did because I suck at maths): G-Reco vol 2-9 63,756. IBO vol 2-9 65,602. That chart is outdated, by the way. IBO's volume 9 outsold G-Reco's. Stop using dumb charts to back up your arguments and check someanithing
>>
Anyone else wish tomino would of just made the original pirate themed mecha that G-reco originally was. Not much was known other than it was in development hell for like 7 years but it sounds like it was originally about a princess who was dethroned only to join up with pirates to go on space adventures trying to reclaim her throne. You can kind of see how it turned into G-reco since bellri kind of went from high class living to living with rogues but they really didnt do much with that other than basic set up.

I say tomino should just go ahead and try to make the original story even with G-reco existing. Its tomino so its par for the course he'd shit on his work but given that tomino expressed disappointment in how G-reco turned out it'd could be a perfect time to redeem the storyline.

Also it becomes even more irrelevant once you realize IBO is twice the length of G-reco anyway. They were both successful series regardless of what people want to write the narrative out to be, but IBO is also no doubt more successful due to larger popularity and merchandise in addition to successful gunpla. Its still less than 00 and seed's popularity but hey barely anything is.

The moral of the story is, neither are even close to age's flop so whats the point in the dick measuring..
>>
>>153925211
It probably doesnt add that much to profits but it is notable that IBO is the first TV gundam in close to 10 years to actually be successful in the west. Thats just a really nice way to say age and G-reco werent popular outside of japan and emphasizing jesus christ its been 10 years since 00.

Well yeah because they already had a predetermined amount of stock into it while they didn't for G-Reco. It was the same situation with GBF in which its success was unprecedented so Bandai had to make more merchandise than was planned due to demand hence why TRY had a shit load more merchandise out the gate than GBF.
>>
Even on Nyaa IBO episodes have more donwnloads than G-Reco. I don't know if they are accurate, but

G-Reco first episode 50k. G-Reco last episode 16k (what a massive drop by the way)
IBO first episode 60k. IBO S1 last episode: 30
>>

I think thats more representative of how many people dropped the series. I remmember how on mal's episode discussion the first 2 episodes had hundreds of posters but by the time the show was in the final stretch it had like 12 people.

The thing that angers me about G-reco wasnt that it was awful, its that its so bad yet it still gets mentioned more than something like fafner which was actually a well made mecha airing around the same time which cared more about telling a compelling story than selling toys like G-reco did.
>>
>>153925830
im asking where you got that info from, im not accusing you of lying I genuinly am just curious where to check these stats.

and im assuming you mean BD exclusively in the west, cause space dandy fucking bombed so hard in japan and depressingly enough didnt even crack 1K sales for first week volumes. It was well received in nico ratings at least.
>>
>>153925720
Nyaa isn't a representative of anything since it has a very small pool of users on it also G-Reco had areally fucked up release schedule so episodes never came out on time and often not anons from /m/ had to rip episodes from Vimeo because Daisuki UK would always be late while IBO had four fucking companies streaming it and episodes were readily available an hour after the episode finished airing.
>>
Have some more first episode vs last episode Nyaa numbers, this shit is interesting:

>Aldnoah
146,7k - 73,6k
>Valvrave
45k - 13k

Barely anyone fucking discussed VVV after it finished while G-reco still gets regularly discussion. Hell VVV was bad enough that Aniplex dropped it and gave it to Sunrise.

Even Reddit threads for G-Reco had less than 100 replies. I'm checking everywhere and literally there's no place where G-Reco was popular. G-Recofags are full of shit.

Seems to be super well received everywhere but here. I know its 2nd season is already shaping up to be the highest rated TV gundam on a few sites both jap and weaboo.

You call this discussion? Its literally only brought up in reference to how hated it was and its usually only on this site. Pretty much everywhere else the fandom has forgotten it entirely especially since Try completely overshadowed it even with its lukewarm reception.

Don't be autistic, Reddit is huge. If we are discussing popularity, Reddit stats are far more valuable than the 100 people posting on /m/.

The gundam reddit is actually full of very pleasant people with threads having little to no shitposting even when people bring up criticsms. Compared to /m/ its basically gundam fandom heaven.

I'm really surprised how many views fights for IBO get on youtube. Its kind of nice knowing this franchise still has pull in the west.

Getting /m/ to admit IBO is even remotely successful is like getting a devote christian to lose faith in god. Its possible and happens but so rarely its not even worth trying.
>>
>>153926317
>Seems to be super well received everywhere but here
Nope. Only sites such as ANN and Animesuki are praising it, nobody else seems to give a shit and the general conseus seems to be its boring as fuck. It was quite amusing seeing that it didn't fare all too well on Toonami too and most people on /co/ agree that they fell asleep through most of it.

Well for example ibo S2 is already the highest rated TV gundam on MAL and has been rapidly climbing in rank every week since the hasmal fight.

but of course it doesn't count cause it doesn't fit your narrative.

Funny enough less than half of the people are actually watching IBO S2 in comparison to S1, the score system is flawed enough that all you need to do is to have watched a significant amount of episodes to have your votes tallied so essentially everyone who voted were hardcore fans already.
>>
>>153926803
>Still something to go off of
Not really its actually quite worthless. You're just saying its accurate because it fits your narrative is all.
>>
>>153926870
>the score system is flawed enough that all you need to do is to have watched a significant amount of episodes to have your votes tallied

I always love that this is considered a bad thing when it basically means only people that actually watch the show can have their input added. For IBO s2 that isnt even implemented yet anyway cause its ongoing and all scores even dropped at ep 1 ones are held to the same power. Aka ibo is gonna get an even bigger boost at this rate once it ends.
>>
>>153926926
When everything is fitting my narrative its no longer a narrative, its just reality at that point. Provide me any decently populated websites where ibo has low scores or any proof that the series is unpopular/unsuccessful and I'll concede, but all youve done is just ignore anything presented at you.
>>
>>153926024

Something about comparing first/last-episode numbers for a sequel to non-sequels seems off.

Why do you post this same fucking picture every gundam thread.
>>
>>153926588
I swear I don't have a horse in this race, but isn't everything new/recent on MAL rated unusually highly? I assumed that's why we get all those instances of "X FotM is currently in the top ten on MAL!" shitposting - because stuff gets high ratings while it's airing and then declines later.

>>153926979
>I always love that this is considered a bad thing when it basically means only people that actually watch the show can have their input added
It is a bad thing because it loses any sense of objectivity and /a/ proved this by score bombing Horizons low average because casuals couldn't get into it so they rose it just by spamming 10s.
>For IBO s2 that isnt even implemented yet
It already has been implemented since the season started hence why its the highest rated Gundam TV series. Its the same way how Gintama is constantly in the top percentile everytime a new series aires, the people who dropped it didn't have their scores tallied because they didn't watch enough episodes but the people who did were hardcore fans who would rate it high regardless same shit with IBO only its more obvious that a lot of people dropped it early on.
>>
>>153927059
>When everything is fitting my narrative its no longer a narrative, its just reality at that point.
Will no because as the other anons stated IBO flopped on Toonami, is doing terribly on TV in Japan as well, it's BD sales also aren't terribly impressive either and it doesn't have much of a traction anywhere. You using MAL is just proof of how desperate you are.
>>
>>153927223
When they first air they are yes, but thats in reference to their first few weeks which did happen to ibo, ibo started out at 8.27 and then dropped proptly to about 8.15 for the first cour before it started growing again. The ongoing scores are kind of worthless but the way they progress is very telling of what the final score will be. If something remains stagnant most the airing its actually likley there will be little to no score change by the end or it will actually drop. In a case where the score is constantly rising each weak its actually shaping up to have a big score jump at the end of its run. Mob psycho, shinsekai yori, et cetera for example was in the 7's for the longest time and started moving up rapidly after half its run with its final score jumping itself into the top 100 of the site by shows end. Compare that to kabenari which started off in the top 100 (8.60 score) to what it is now

I unironically enjoyed G-reco and even bought the BDs and manga. Then again, my fav series in the franchise is Turn A s maybe that's why I found G-Reco to be the perfect epilogue to Tomino's Gundam.

As a standalone, yeah, I can see why it's got such polarising reactions since I certainly doubt most of the people who watched G-reco has done the core UC series + Turn A experience. But for me, it was great. People say it's a mess but I found that it's fine as a simple, additional short story sort of thing that adds to/ callsback to the UC lore and enjoy all the little character moments here and there. One thing I really got to hand it to old school directors like Tomino and Miyazaki is that they know how to create an atmosphere that actually wants me to be part of it.

Yeah, the story is weak but again, to me, that's not the point. It's sort of like a bonus/omake to the UC+CC series and I like how the themes being explored ties in to that. It's about the little character interactions and how they interact with the world around them. In a way, G-Reco is like Blame!, it's not about the story, it's just about throwing you into the world and see how their characters are a like.

Aldnoah Zero was just boring. it's like it's half-assed itself between trying to be bold (e.g. cliffhanger that appears to kill off cour 1's protagonist, press releases talking about a contrast in cour 1 and cour 2having different focus etc) and trying to be different but in the end it just became yet another by-the-number mecha.

It's nice to see that people in this thread quickly switched from G-Reco vs A/Z shitposting to G-Reco vs IBO. Maybe A/Z finally stopped triggering enormous autism from mecha fans.

A/Z could've been at least decent, and then the second season happened and ruined any possible thing the story could've had going for it. I will still never understand why it became associated with G-Recofags looking down on people who hated it, /a/ didn't even like A/Z at that point either. Still, A/Z is probably worse simply for having an interesting ending to the first season and ruining it completely.
>>
>>153928890
I mostly agree with this anon.
The thing I liked most about G-Reco was how it felt like watching an early UC series. Everything from artstyle to music to suit designs felt like classic Tomino, and was super nostalgic.
It had some of the most fun and likeable characters in any Gundam series imo, and the attention to detail in how the mundane side of the character's lives worked was refreshing compared to shows like 00 and SEED which only ever focused on the mecha part of the setting. Stuff like airbags and built-in toilets, or the architecture and workings of the Venus Globes were really fascinating to see.
Also Bellri is one of the more charismatic and likeable Gundam main characters. He's just some random kid who really wants to bone his sister, and the fact that he wasn't a super powerful Newtype or SUPAH PIROTO or what have you made him more empathetic than most modern Gundam protags.

A/Z was always shit from the very first episode, where the MC cared more about eggs than the Martian princess dying, and is generally an emotionless husk and yet we're somehow supposed to find it believable that people don't find him creepy.
>>
>>153934829
Right, he was a bizarre motherfucker, but I'm not sure if a character lacking emotion is enough to make everything about it shit. I absolutely agree with you that he doesn't make a good main character in any case. At the end of S1 they killed him off and it seemed like things would finally get interesting as they could've taken it in any number of directions all of which would've been much better than the first season.

>>
>>153934972
Eggs was just the tip of the iceberg. The first episode alone has logical flaws up the ass. Such as, why doesn't Asshime have any means of contacting Cruhteo? I mean, she was staying on his ship. And if she does, why didn't she have immediately inform him that the person who died was a body double? I stands to reason that she would have been provided some Earth guards so why didn't they inform the people that the Asshime that died wasn't the real one?
>>
>>153935593
I'm not going to argue that a show I watched ages ago that I also think is shit now is really actually any good. The only thing that I am saying is that, whatever flaws the first season had, A/Z could have gone on to be much better following S1's ending. It could have been at least decent. But it isn't, it's just bad. We agree on that.

Serious question, what are you trying to achieve here? People who care can already check the sales records/ moon sites to see that you're wrong.
