So I finally finished the original series of Mazinger Z. Started it over a year ago with the swear subs and put it on hold and recently got a copy of Discotek's volume 2 of the series.
It's one of the most entertaining anime I've ever watched. Despite the seemingly episodic nature, there's just enough continuity between each episode to give even the simple monster of the week battles the impression of an overlying story.
Also, the show had a ton of variety with introducing new villains, mecha upgrades, and a weird mix of genres. Enemy mech designs are super creative design wise with each having their own unique attacks and shit. Like, it's amazing they managed to pump out over 90 of these things while still keeping them creative.
I do find it a little disappointing that it ends on a giant cliffhanger and I thinkDr Hell's death could have been handled better. His final mech hardly even scratched Mazinger Z. The manga managed to be a bit more satisfying with him having that giant mech...
Oh and Sayaka a cute and the lack of scanned doujinshi of her is a crime.

I was gonna watch Mazinger soon if I didn't rewatch MSG dubbed. Would you suggest the swearing, the crabsticks, or the actual english?

The swear subs are pretty fucking entertaining but were annoying to get. Not sure if anyone ever compiled them all into a single torrent. If you have the money you should buy the DVDs though.

Garada is funny, Crabsticks are hilarious at some times and force you to think at others, normal is normal.
I only watch mecha stuff because the genre is unusually dense with hot chicks.
Fight me.

Dustin was a cunt, but at least he was largely an ignorant cunt and honestly believed in what he was fighting and killing for.
Billy, on the other hand, turned on his allies the second got jump off their camp and then actually tried to kill Maya because 'muh brother'. All while knowning NUNs are a bunch of war-crazy faggots.
Mizoguchi was right to put that dickhead out of his misery.

Okay I'm tired to death of all these new Gundam shit. IBO failed to catch my interest and I doubt anything that comes after ever will. I feel like I have exhausted all the fucks I could possibly give to Gundam. I feel like AGE should have been my last, but here I am, still trying to give a damn.
Now, where the fuck is my new Mazinger shit? Mazinkaiser SKL was 5 years ago and Robot Girls Z doesn't count.
Where the fuck is my new Votoms? What the fuck is Takahashi doing?
At least they're making a new J9, that's cool.
But what about GaoGaiGar? Why can't we ever see anything in that universe ever again?
Oh boy, they're taking a long time to make that new Pacific Rim. I doubt they'll ever get it out before I die of old age.

8 Reasons Why Robotech Is Better Than Macross

1) Robotech Has Better Theme Music
Robotech and Macross may be different shows in the details, but they’re both flashy, grand-scope space operas at heart, full of lasers and transforming jets and exploding warships. All of that requires the right kind of opening song, and that’s exactly what Robotech has.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WHfNniqT7bo
Composer Ulpio Minucci may have taken a note or two from John Williams’ Superman movie theme, but Minucci put together a stirring anthem that perfectly fits outer-space warfare. It also helped that Robotech got to choose from the introductory animation of three different anime shows, opening with the broken film reel of Southern Cross and slipping in the motorcycle mecha of Genesis Climber Mospeada.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l1TfkO0Nbbk
By comparison, the original Macross theme is boring. It attempts some mournful, romantically bleak air, but that doesn’t really suit images of jet-robots shredding entire city blocks with gunfire. In fact, the whole song becomes unplanned comedy when vocalist Makoto Fujiwara tries to give the word MAH-KU-ROSS some dramatic impact. But don’t try telling anime songwriters (or anime fans) that made-up words can sound silly.
2) Robotech Didn’t Result in Clash of the Bionoids
Some fans maintain that Macross sequels could’ve been worse if Robotech had mangled them for American audiences, even though Macross has received far more painful treatment in English-speaking countries. In fact, the crowning achievement in disgracing Macross came in Macross: Clash of the Bionoids. A censored version of the original Macross movie, it was apparently dubbed by about five or six people in Hong Kong, and it showed up at Blockbuster Videos throughout the 1990s.
If you ever think Robotech is the worst thing that happened to Macross, just crank up the volume and watch whiny-voiced Hikaru and drunk, half-Australian Roy Focker in action.

3) Robotech Inspired Fewer Awful Sequels
Here’s where anime fans point out that Macross has some excellent sequels and remakes, though only two of them are genuinely great: the OVA (and movie) Macross Plus and the original Macross: Do You Remember Love? film. The other Macross follow-ups range from god-awful failure (Macross II) to cheaply animated boredom (most of Macross 7). The most recent sequels, Macross Zero and Macross Frontier, are indulgent, CG-heavy puffballs that are good only when jet-robots are blowing shit up or principal characters are dying valiantly to Yoko Kanno music. Frontier also has this thing, which throws us over to Robotech‘s side like nothing else.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wieStI7kN-I
Robotech‘s sequels are horrid, yet there’s only one major example around to plague fans today. We can’t count Robotech: The Movie (actually an edited version of the unrelated OVA Megazone 23), as it was buried in someone’s backyard after a disastrous test screening. Robotech II: The Sentinels is also obscure enough that you’re not going to see it unless you look around YouTube or plumb the extras of a Robotech DVD set. Robotech: The Shadow Chronicles, a Robotech sequel film from 2006, is a plastic-looking, half-finished mess craftily aimed at fans seeking closure (which the movie never provides). Still, it’s just one high-profile piece of crap compared to the pile of lousy Macross follow-ups.
>>
>>14078289
4) Robotech Inspired Fewer Awful Videogames
If anime series are judged on how often they make fans buy terrible video games, Macross is a war criminal. Since the days of the Famicom, Macross games have been largely dull shooters that players are expected to enjoy just because they can change a Valkyrie fighter into a robot, a jet, or a jet with arms and legs. Few Macross games stand out as above average, including the Super Famicom’s cult-favorite Macross Scrambled Valkyrie, and most of them are horrible traps just waiting for gullible fans of either Macross or Robotech. And those fans have fallen in many times. Just ask anyone who imported the bland Macross: Do You Remember Love? game for the Saturn or PlayStation, and don’t even mention the borderline-unplayable Playstation nightmare of Macross Digitial Mission VFX. Macross games even managed to turn Macross Plus, the high-water mark of the entire mecha-cartoon genre, into a boring arcade shooter, and there’s no excuse for that.
While Robotech inspired fewer games, they’re not half-bad. Robotech: The Macross Saga is an easily dismissed Game Boy Advance cash-in, but both Robotech: Battlecry and Robotech: Invasion are enjoyable 3-D space shooters on the PlayStation 2 and Xbox (and, in Battlecry‘s case, the GameCube). It’s only recently that Macross games managed to produce decent shooters along the same lines.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o4NBE1gyD48
Moreover, what could’ve been the worst Robotech game was never inflicted on the public. Robotech: Crystal Dreams, a 3-D shooter that became one of the first major titles announced for the Nintendo 64, was canceled after its publisher went under. It probably wouldn’t have lived up to anyone’s expectations, much like the majority of third-party Nintendo 64 titles, but at least it didn’t leave any Macross or Robotech fans $70 poorer.

Why does /m/ keep saying that mecha is not popular anymore? Gundam discs sell good, plamo sells great, it's #1 Bandai's source of income. What's this 'Kids don't like robots anymore' meme if they do buy figures? Don't tell me their main audience are 50 y.o. otakus with early 80s nostalgia.

That's too much floof for me to handle at once!
And to answer your question: WHO GIVES A SHIT ABOUT GUNDAM?
You posted a picture full of great /m/ shows. Shows that we aren't likely to have an equivalent of ever again. Those are the shows that matter.
Not Gundam. Gundam will still be there in the 22nd century and it will still be mostly shit with the occasional good OVA.

Holy shit I have never 360'd on a gundam protag so hard. He is the only gundam pilot I can think of who didn't get treated like shit by the main crew and he still manages to fuck everything up. I never thought I would see an episode titled " I'm gonna sell the gundam" Christ. Everyone including the people who want to kill him are so nice to him. At this point I'm gonna keep watching for the Airmaster pilot,the hot bridge bunny, and the merc chick who was trying to bang garrod.

IBO happens after UC
>sydney in IBO is kill, pic related
>sydney in UC is kill too
>there is a DOME-G movie called Mobile Suit Gundam: One of Seventy-Two, which refers to the Gundam Phenex being one of the 72 Demons of Ars Goetia, of which Gundam Barbatos is also named after
>Gjallarhorn had 72 legendary Gundam Frames, which are also named after the 72 Demons of Ars Goetia
>In episode 2 or 1 of IBO it is said that the cockpit was removed and replaced with a Mobile Worker cockpit because the previous one was sold by CGS when they started using the Ahab reactor of Barbatos to power the base
>Allah's Vagina system could be a variant of the psycho frame system made so that even non-newtypes can use it
>The Calamity War and the terraforming of mars could happen later, as the UC calender goes on.
>Perhaps since the total time of the milked tv series is longer we may see some Phenex action
If anyone bought the HG Phenex please can you post a pic of the movie transcript you got with it?
I have a very simple summary here, but it says nothing about 72 part or anything useful to the theory

I was thinking about this when I saw the milked unicorn episode on gundaminfo youtube channel and they accidentally had a barbatos gunpla ad in the middle.
