Watched Oshii's new (?) live action film, Garm Wars. I just checked and apparently it was released overseas last year, but they only just released it in Japan today.

Well.

At least it wasn't as bad as Tokyo Mukokuseki Shoujo.

The plot was nonsensical but I really liked the Panzer Dragoon, Last Exile, Dunbine-ish aesthetic they had going on.

Despite being nonsensical the plot somehow manages to be horribly predictable. The use of all sorts of made-up words is part of the fun of fantasy and sci-fi, and this is both, but the one and a half hour runtime coupled with how this is an Oshii film where more than half the film is silence means you can't remember most of that shit. he big mastermind was design-wise basically the Puppetmaster from the first GitS movie. Old guy's conclusion was way too obvious. The big reveal about the creators of the Garm was literally generic Japanese RPG shit, and the ending was basically a PS1 RPG's end of disc 1 stinger.

The action scenes were way too anime and did not match the live action medium. In fact Oshii's style doesn't match the medium. Like with Tokyo Mukokuseki Shoujo, Oshii's signature "people standing still silently" thing is kind of ruined by how real people CAN'T STAND PERFECTLY STILL DAMN IT. People slowly swaying silently doesn't nearly have the same effect.

Also the shit with the dog was just fucking weird.

The CG was pretty bad compared to Hollywood of course but I thought it was okay. The designs were creative and cool enough to make up for it at least.

It was only available dubbed in Japanese at my cinema but even with great voice acting (protagonist was done by Park Romi) you can tell that the actual acting is horrid. Out of place body language, weird facial expressions, etc.

At least the mechanical shit was cool.

There's alot of mecha shows that has a plot of hostile aliens from deep space coming to Earth to destroy humanity for one reason or another. But is there an /m/ anime where aliens went to Earth just to trade?

How the fuck did rasara die?

What was the point of the whole china town arc?

I mean on screen nothing falls on her she just lays on top of Mondo and suddenly she is fucking dead.

Worst of all, is that poor Ple gets killed by her evil cone and judo doesn't even bat an eye, but when one of the filler twins dies everyone is bawlling their eyes out and she even gets a fucking funeral.

Here be a Zero thread

You know what nobody ever talks about when it comes to Zero? The plot. The most I ever hear talk about Zero (the few times it comes up) is some of the fights, Roy and when it gets referenced in later series. So I'm gonna bring up something about Zero in an attempt for conversation. I'll admit, I'm mainly making this thread because I was on Macross World and one guy was trying to separate the Macross series into like different sides even though I feel all of them are intentionally different from one another and expansions on the universe, anyway.

Why the fuck is this always compared to Plus? Is it because they're OVAs? Plus is like a side incident to explain why they don't just have automated jets do everything and doesn't affect much. But Zero is really important for the lore of Macross. It's not even the same kind of story. Zero explores the disparity between militarization and modern times vs. traditional island culture. It has a very much larger story for the implications of the Macross world. It's lead goes through a small character arc. It's a really full series of stuff (though it doesn't transition between scenes that well). But I feel it gets demoted because there's slightly more focus on the mecha compared to the TV series.

On that note, I always found Zero very "okay". It's a middle of the road series. Not that great but also not that bad. Really it's quite underrated but I can kind of understand why not that many people have seen it. Also, for reasons said above I like it quite a deal more than Plus.
