Great stuff right here. Sad to see that the manga isn't being scanlated whatsoever. Dunno who'd pick it up. But hey, MJP appreciation thread
SAD.
Fav waifu?
A shame this series only gets some kind of discussion on /m/.
it was a good series, the characters were good, the story was kinda not shit, the fights were pretty cool
>>156960127
There is a manga?
>>156963159
Yeah but it doesn't really relate to the anime as a whole. Kei has black hair in it.
easily my favorite series in a long ass time.
>>156961091
Kei is best girl. Ever.
>>156960127
MC wants to bone his mom.
>>156963435
no
But who was the drawing?
>>156963471
w-what is Ange implying there
I love her
>>156963758
>Psst, senpai, wanna get naughty?
>>156963806
>Seriously though are you a guy or a girl
>...yes
>>156960127
This series shouldn't have been as good as it was, honestly. Hiraiface with high school mecha pilots fighting a war of invasion against humanoid aliens. It could have been bad to unremarkable but it ended up being legitimately good.
>>156963471
>Ange's face
>>156963917
You know what, I like Hirai. It's not his fault Seed was a pack of horseshit. Dude did good work in a lot of other places. Scryed was good, Infinite Ryvius was pretty cool, Heroic Age was awesome and MJP was just flat out plain good.
A lot of anime designers have same face, I don't see why we have to pick on him. Not his fault gundam didn't know shit about expression
>>156964051
Yeah, I don't mind Hiraiface in MJP. It suits the show because it lets them do really goofy, expressive faces. It works here.
How was the movie?
>>156960127
I'd watch this if it didn't have that hideous visual style and character designs.
>>156964137
Really good.
>>156964200
But best boy isn't leading
>>156964137
It was a lot like an extra long episode of the show itself, which is to say, really good. There were some moments I think could have been done better but they captured the tone of the show while it was airing really well.
Give it a watch.
>It's a "Good Mecha show gets a bad rap because of CGI and Hirai character design while people eat garbage like IBO" thread
>>156964226
>people judging books by their cover
Nothing new here.
>>156964226
Man I still need to finish Fafnir season 1.
>>156964137
>>156964226
Fafner Beyond when
>>156963758
Ange is a woman, you know. It's obvious when they watch the porn. Everyone is interested in being dommed by the actress while her violent personality self inserts as the actress.
>>156964270
I think the only thing that could have improved this scene was if Izuru started running the moment the knife impacted that fucker when he looked at Asagi and when we cut back from looking at Asagi Izuru's already fucking beating the shit out of him.
>>156964270
I pray for a S2. I want to see Plus versions of everyone's mecha.
>>156964321
I wish they didn't have Blue job right after his awakening. Pretty fucking cruel.
>>156960127
>tfw just managed to snag the character songs before Nyaa died
Did the movie wrap up the entire plot or is there room for a season 2?
you know what I liked the most? How reasonable, logical and generally not assholish everyone was.
It would have been so easy to have the adults view the bunnies as disposable soldiers and try and force drama that way and they didn't. Rin rin loved those kids and everyone had their backs in way that just brought a smile to my face.
They had no choice but to send them into battle but they all got how fucked up that was and did everything they could to make the kids lives worth something, and they all got pit crews to help them out and it was just really... it was nice.
>>156964424
Still plenty of room, just cleared away the cliff from the end of the series and placed some more that were easier to swallow. Lets hope the movie did well.
>>156964451
That's the funny thing that Fafner does too. It's weird how both shows have Hirai character designs with non-asshole adults who care for their forced soldier kids.
>>156964478
These two are massive cunts and I don't trust that one sexy science lady but he Captain Dad and Soldier Bro are awesome enough to offset it I suppose.
Anyone have a webm of red awakening and the fight right after? The fights were so hype
>>156964291
So sweet its presence can wake a dude from a coma. Kei a best.
>>156964389
To be fair, all units except Purple 2 jobbed after awakening. Red 5+ didnt do all that much. And Black 6 didn't even awaken.
>>156964226
It really did have so much going against it and yet it managed to leap over those barriers. What a miracle that they got Orange (the CG focused one), one of the few studios who knows how to do CGI well in nipland.
>>156963471
Please let it say something along the lines of ".... next time". Besides Izuru and Kei somehow Teoria manages to steal the spotlight.
Also anyone know if the subs on the Blu-ray for the series are any good?
>>156964549
>>156964389
I wouldn't put much faith into PLUS units. Red 5 Plus was less upgrade and more EZ8 grade. It's made of spare parts and held together by gum and a prayer.
>So sweet its presence can wake a dude from a coma. Kei a best.
The only thing sweater than her cakes is her herself
>>156964611
I thought it was an upgrade and the only reason Izuru was doing so poorly was because his body was still recovering.
This whole part was just....hnnng
>>156963194
the manga story is about team rabbits clone, hence they have the same name but different appearance. Manga Izuru also showed up in anime
>>156964593
>Also anyone know if the subs on the Blu-ray for the series are any good?
I have the set, seemed okay. Hell I even though thedubwas pretty decent. I hope the movie gets a R1 release bundled with the bonus ep
>>156964642
It was made in the back of the Godinion on the way home from the battle that it got smashed in. Im not gonna say his injuries didn't hamper him because they did but it's not the upgrade you think it is.
Turning into a jet is cool and all but Red 5 proper wouldn't need to.
>>156964541
Man, you need to get in further to see the true depths that the parents in Fafner go to.
>>156964718
Im slowly making my way through it but that first half or so was slow going. I know they wanted the mystery and all but they didn't really do a very good job of setting up the world so Im invested when shit hits the fan.
>>156964541
Wait till best grandma Hester Gallop.
>>156964909
It's funny but if you ever rewatch the early episodes after finishing the series you'll be more invested because you'll notice a lot of foreshadowing you didn't before.
Damn, I didn't even know there was an archive book. Pretty detailed.
>>156964952
Well it's less I don't get it more I had a hard time caring. When he's introduced Kazuki doesn't really have much of a personality and neither does anyone else. Shit goes south when Shoko dies but I don't know Shoko and we never see her relationship with any of the others to give impact to her sacrifice. You need to establish the status quo before you uproot it but we hit the ground running without so much as character introductions.
Im happy to pick up shit via osmosis and I don't mind a slower plot, fuck Im on of like 14 people who actually liked M3 but ya gotta give me something to grab onto
>>156964663
Thanks, that would explain a lot. Thought manga Izuru was just a cameo as a shout out to the series.
>>156964687
Thanks for your opinion.
>>156965058
>>156964663
Actually the manga rabbits are the originals, it's the anime ones that are clones. They mentioned it directly but fortunately never really dwell on it, which I feel is for the best. Don't need to get into the whole what defines us drama
>>156965012
Link?
>>156965037
The characters do have a lot of personality. You're about to hit the meat of it where people start developing and expanded on. Where all the build up will pay off. The problem with the early episodes you're having is because it's framed in Kazuki's narrow perspective. You're reaching the point that the director change really take hold and the actual perspective begins to expand and establishes the formula for the rest of the series. There's a reason people say it's worth trucking out and why they enjoy it on a rewatch.
One of the things they were trying early on was to frame the situation so you didn't know if the adults really were on the up and up or if they were just using the kids. Which is working in your case because you're still not certain if everything they did was for the best.
>>156962282
I love the show but I have to agree when they say the design are excessive. its like valvrave.
>>156965261
Going to dump it on /m/ and then drop a link.
>>>/m/15509549
>>156964051
>Scryed was good, Infinite Ryvius was pretty cool, Heroic Age was awesome and MJP was just flat out plain good.
did he just directed those? cause man now thinking about they all had somewhat a similar style to them. so I guess I should check out infinite ryvius then.
>>156965280
Thanks
>>156965303
He's the character designer.
>>156965333
thats what it was. thanks. is infinite ryvius good?
>>156965354
Its a pretty decent Lord of the Flies in space kind of deal. Id say its worth watching at lest once
>>156965401
>Lord of the Flies
>read a small summary
interest piqued, now if I can just find a torrent.
>>156965134
Wait, wait, wait. I thought they were all basically designer babies grown in labs in order to help humanity better adapt and later further expand into space. Then the Wulguru showed up and they had to change gears condemning the younger half of them to become soldiers trained to fight against them. They were raised as normal children to properly soak up the necessary knowledge like language etc and then had their memories erased before being sent to the Academy to start their training. Where does the clone thing fit into this and do the originals then also share the same parents as the clones in the anime?
>>156965303
And by Exodus the character's expressions are excellent.
Chuuni Soushi was glorious.
>>156965473
Honestly it's probably best just to put the manga out of your mind entirely. The Anime bunnies are the ones doing all the heavy lifting.
Im just going on hearsay anyways so it's possible the manga bunnies are just extra copies. Hell it's even possible that they're just flat out using the word clone wrong. Anime still likes to toss around STAR to mean planet.
>>156965584
Yeah probably for the best. Fucking travesty though that no one was interested enough to pick it up.
>>156965584
>Anime still likes to toss around STAR to mean planet.
I cant say if its wrong or not from a scientific name point but this anime isnt the first to do it though, so more likely on a bigger scale its accurate to call it a star.
>>156960127
I liked the animay
Link me the manga raws and I might translate it.
>>156965750
I don't think we even have raws is the thing
>>156965750
Here. I actually had a digital copy of the first volume from honto for awhile. Unfortunately, it's only 1200px high.
http://www.mediafire.com/file/24fdd4x4y65lqai/Majestic_Prince_v01.rar
>>156965995
well son of a doberman
>>156965750
found the links for volume 1 to 5 but all is dead, maybe someone who know japanese can ask the site owner to reupload it again
http://mangazips.blog.jp/archives/1004710670.html
Why did Asagi job so hard?
>>156965995
>>156966076
so uh yeah
>two pages of people fucking in a hot tub
I know we joked about rape prince but the manga seems to be going for a starkly different tone I don't know if I like
>>156966295
Asagi is a hero! Kind of
>>156966295
He let his guard down after finally achieving Awakening with Blue One. He made up for it with his threeway team-up with Kei and Izuru though.
>>156965995
>>156966400
Oh wait, I'm retarded. This is volume 9.
>>156966410
>rabbit three way
why are there no doujins for this show
>>156966491
Because apparently the official source material has things covered.
>>156966410
He was fucking up even before awakening. Blue One deserved better.
>>156966538
but the series didn't even remove the fog from the blue ray
Well, shoot. Honto must've changed the formats of the digital books again. Bought the first volume but can't rip it with the rippers I have.
Tamaki was the real MVP of the movie
>>156966812
She needed Suruga to aim for her though. Without his help her Awakening was a liability.
>>156966812
Suruga sort of got the short end of the stick overall but all the rabbits got their time in the sun
for my money though it was Kei. Im surprised it took them this long to make a flat joke
>>156966905
She still got the highest killcount though.
>>156966980
>>156966905
Suruga and Tamaki seem to be treated as a pair a lot, even in the op they share screen time
>>156966657
If irc the killing bites manga is also from the same magazine as MJP's manga. Maybe shoot them a message to ask what they use if you're still feeling up for it?
>>156967066
I can see it but I kinda hope they just stay as friends. They always seemed like a brother and sister to me.
>>156967066
the funny thing is Tmakai is the main heroine in the manga https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XiCtU-Vi32o
also manga kei boobs are big
>>156964593
Teoria is really cool. She's not a Lacus clone at all, and a great mom.
>>156966657
>>156965750
got you covered senpaitachi
http://rg.to/file/53827eea84eca24ae8c3a4cb69e58c04/Majestic_Prince_v01.rar.html
>>156964226
Serious question: are you retarded or just pretending?
>>156960127
oh shit I haven't seen this anime in years
>>156962826
yeah it was very very decent. despite the hirai faces
>>156970134
>despite the hirai faces
hey Fafner, s-CRY-ed, and Ryvius are good, only Destiny and Linebarrel are bad
It was good.
>>156960127
I haven't watched the movie yet
Did Kei Win the Herobowl
Thanks OP for reminding me to watch the movie.
>>156963471
Wow
>>156964226
But Fafner and MJP have awesome CGI.
>>156970945
>>156971620
>Communicating through shit talking
That part was both awesome and hilarious
>>156963870
>>156963806
MC's oniichan belongs to the loli.
>>156970945
>>156971620
there we go.. black 6 is the fucking best dont ever forget it
So what's the chances of the manga being translated?
Gotta admit, finding a torrent that's well seeded for this anime is impossible.
Jesus Christ, the dub on this anime is BAAD
>>156976761
I didn't even realize this got a dub. Also wow, the thread is still up from last night.
>>156976792
I know, as OP I'm pretty happy. Haha.
>>156974884
if it didn't get translated while the anime was airing doubt its going to be
>>156977140
That's unfortunate.
Anywhere I can get the movie still?
>>156977701
nyaa.pantsu.cat
>>156976851
Yeah, too bad there's not much to discuss anymore. All we can do is hope for an eventual S2.
I could be bugged to translate the manga though. If I ever do and get my hands on some good raws maybe I'll make a thread.
>>156978401
That'd be very nice of you to do. And yes, a second season would be nice.
>mfw Asagi pulls out the Blue One specialty with White Zero
He done Blue One proud.
>>156978669
The way he easily uses the ribbons because they were a part of Blue One's designs was a really nice touch. It was actually really cool to see him flailing around with the prototype's awful handling, and just spamming bullets because it's all he can do to contribute.
>>156968444
wait does that mean tamaki and Izuru is a thing
The brief scuffle with Red Five is my favorite part.
>>156978669
>>156978901
I haven't seen the special or the movie yet. Are these from them? Because they're absolutely beautiful. And make me just want to rewatch the series.
>>156960127
Movie was pretty good. It looked really impressive.
>>156979014
Those are from the movie, yeah.
>>156978794
I love how the prototype they've been hyping up turned out to be a piece of shit.
>>156978829
anime and manga rabbits are different person
>>156979160
Pls no bully grandpa Zero
>>156979160
You can see Asagi in >>156978901 just flailing around in the background like a chump. The entire sequence where Red Five is running he's rolling around on the ground just unloading from a distance because his suit is such trash at handling.
I'm surprised something so good (doing a rewatch) came out of Doga Kobo.
>>156979286
seven arcs did the movie
>>156979399
I'm watching the anime, not the films.
I was disappointed they didn't play the theme song at this part like the trailer.
>>156979537
Yeah, it would've been nice to hype up the scene with that song only to get cut off when Asagi gets wrecked.
Underrated series. That's what happens when it airs alongside two, more hyped mecha series despite ending up the best of them.
The movie was great too, though I'm surprised Team Fawn got an episode to themselves to build into the movie and then ended up being almost completely useless.
RIP in pieces Blue One
We need that manga!!
If season 2 does happen, I hope they explore the alternative personality thing again with Blue One and the other three.
>>156980188
better start getting the raw
>>156980333
Having trouble finding. I'm sorry guys...
>>156980315
Blue Ones? Other three? Were those introduced in the movie(s)?
>>156960127
It's a good series. We had several good threads on /m/ when we crowdsourced subs.
I think it gets a lot of stigma because of the character designer and the fact that it's got CG mechs, but they really did go above and beyond with the CG, even using speedline bluring on inbetween shots.
Just watched the first episode and what a snoresfest...
>>156976761
>Jesus Christ, the dub on this anime is BAAD
Nah I liked it. Felt like the VA's were having some fun. Pretty sure they threw some extra's in there ala Ghost Stories. Just my opinion though.
Wait the movie came out? Where do I get it now that nyaa is dead?
>>156971791
No. Movie was basically just a side mission, but it was a fun side mission and made me like Ange. Now we just wait and hope for S2.
>>156982778
The fun starts when team deathflag and rape prince appears.
>>156984861
>team deathflag
They actually threw me off a bit sincefucking Chandra was the only survivor after mentioning his fiance.
>>156984946
Wee, Patrick did say he was going to confess after that mission, so he did play it straight
>>156984788
>Now we just wait and hope for S2.
And hope this handholding from one of the EDs pays off
I love that Kei is slightly taller than Izuru
>>156982778
Go back to trash like Gurren Lagann or Little Witch Academia. Putrid shit like that is more your level
>all I asked for from the movie was a hug scene if both these two survived
>still didn't get it even though they both survived
Goddammit.
>>156986427
you got mecha hand holding
>>156986427
All I wanted was for Izuru to learn (I think he still doesn't know, right?) that Simon's his father, put two and two together, and give him a light dressing down for the blatant nepotism of offering his sons and only his sons the opportunity to quit before the final battle in S1. I still want that.
>>156986733
Izuru was literally dying cut Simon some slack. As far as mysterious commander types go, dude was a saint
WHO DREW THE CUTE ANIME GIRL?
>>156987906
Tamaki's team
>>156981926
I love how they just give him the sniper rifle for an arm. but his build is so weird(to me), you think he be built a lot heavier for more artillery and defense like shield bits but its looks build like he supposed be more mobile and agile than the rest of the group. or is just me?
>>156987633
Oh, I don't dislike Simon, but it was still nepotism, and I certainly don't see that sitting well with Izuru the Hero.
