Hi guys, I'm giving a very brief panel on mecha at a local convention. It's very small and most people haven't watched anything outside of MAYBE Gundam Wing on Toonami when it aired, so the series I'm thinking about mentioning are.
0079, Z, ZZ, CCA, Turn A, G
Big O
Tetsujin 28
Getter Robo
Evangelion
Gurren Lagann
VOTOMS
Giant Gorg
Gunbuster
Macross
Astro Boy
Patlabor
Mazinger Z
Aldnoah Zero
Any suggestions on other shows to include? I'm not going for a "here's the entire history" but more of a "here's some neat shows you should consider checking out and a little about them"
Dougram, always a good recommendation.
Xabungle too for that matter.
>>14017154
>Aldnoah Zero
Please don'tOr if you do, make sure to make a joke about how the audience should stick to it.
Looks like a pretty solid list though.
I think Geass also deserves a mention for how big it was. Maybe some otherbettermore contemporary shows.
Also, no GitS?
>>14017154
If you're looking at a Toonami crowd, you might want to consider mentioning a few GiTS-style entries (e.g. Armitage III), in case some folks like their robots on the smaller side.
3 episodes in and they already killed the best character? Did Gai really die? Ain't watching this shit if they killed him.
>best character
>some turbo nerd who might as well be posting on /m/ and talking about how GREAT AND MANLY PILOTING THE ROBOT IS
No wonder why people jerk him and Kamina off, it's all self insert.
>MAN I'D BE SOME HOTBLOODED ACTION HERO
Watch it for the girls that come after. Watch it for Ryoko.
>>14013127
All pilots with sideburns are the best pilots.
Norba Shino!!I love you.
Don't die!!!
>>14018025
/cm/ pleasepost superior Gali-Gali.
>>14018025
ibo sux
>>14018025
where was guts?
he should have had norbas back
norba would have had his
Is this the only western science fiction worth anything right now? I need something to calm me down before the new Star Trek movie/series.
Read the books.
>>14015779
My book backlog is three years behind as it is, I've got four Enders Game entries to get though. I just want to know if the show is good.
western trash isn't /m/
How would you fix this drawing? make the peerspective so they would look like giants?
or make the fight look more dynamic?
>>14014913
Keep it as a reminded of my failures, and then put it away. I would then visit /ic/.
>>14014918
I'm pretty sure he doesn't want to put a fedora on his head while also shoving a stick up his ass to try and pretend he's superior.
>>14014940
I only mention /ic/ for the sticky. I should have mentioned this. The board itself is useless.
I-I was caught off guard. I didn't expect it to be comfy.
>>14013409
Pick a scene from an episode (featuring robots). I'll make a webm of it right now, just for you, for free.
>>14013450
Any will do my /m/an.
>>14013409
None of us did

Are there any other examples of Tech Noir?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l_D9zP2s1xQ
>>14012757
That's not noir.
Blade Runner
>>14012757
There's a pretty huge overlap between Tech Noir and Cyberpunk. Actual, Gibson style Cyberpunk, not Steampunk cosplayers with Neon and Power Gloves instead of Cogwheels and Top Hats.
What is your opinion about Barbatos?
Not the pilot, not the show, just about the Gundam design.
I have some issue with the exposed stomach, and the lack of a shield, but i really like the design and the iron mace. So brutal.
>>14011251
A couple of its forms had a buckler.
I like Form 2, the rest are kinda meh
I like it. The v-crest is a bit oversized for my taste, but I enjoy seeing it fight. My personal favorite weapon is the giant clamp thing.
>>14011251
Seems kind of bare bones. I've never liked the anorexic waist that always looks like it's about to snap in half. The dino chomper is cool, though. Gusion Rebake and Kimaris are both better designs.
Oh shit /m/, it's the finals of the Gunpla Battle World Championship and this is your opponent (piloted Mikazuki Augus, obviously). How do you win?
>>14010451
>How do you win?
I pick a MS that can fly.
Optional airbags inside the cockpit and beam rifle as weapon.
>>14010451
>00 raiser or any one of lockon's ms.
>Smash barbatos to bits
I want to jam a GN sword in its shitty-ass exposed midsection and watch it helplessly flail about in the dirt like a dying bug.
Would you give up your life of luxury as an earthnoid to join the glorious Principality of Zeon?

Nah fuck that shit im off to Jupiter. To bang some mobile suit strippers.

No thanks.

I didn't manage to respond to the encoding anon in the last thread before it archived, so I'll slip it here (sorry for ignoring you then). Besides that, feel free to discuss cute magical girls etc as usual.
My cel anime 1080p options were basically:
x264.exe --qpmax 38 --qcomp 0.60 --aq-mode 1 --crf 17 --no-mbtree --psy-rd 1.0:0.0 --aq-s
trength 0.8 --preset placebo --bframes 9 --subme 10
Input was through avisynth, naturally, although for BD sources, fancy filtering is seldom needed. This was a line for 10bit encode, if you use 8bit binary, the qpmax value is supposed to be reduced by 12, if you want to use that parameter, that is. Other oprions carry over to 8bit.
That is however quite slow, so for non-insane people I would advice something like:
x264.exe --qpmax 38 --qcomp 0.60 --aq-mode 1 --crf 17 --no-mbtree --psy-rd 1.0:0.0 --aq-s
trength 0.8 --preset veryslow --subme 10
Or, this (slower - this is basically preset veryslow plus the option --no-fast-pskip):
x264.exe --qpmax 38 --qcomp 0.60 --aq-mode 1 --crf 17 --no-mbtree --psy-rd 1.0:0.0 --aq-s
trength 0.8 --preset placebo --bframes 9 --subme 10 --me umh
crf 17 should look nice but it ends up with quite high filesizes, you might need to actually use "crf 18" instead of "crf 17" and/or remove the "--qpmax 38" option.
I think --no-mbtree --aq-strenght 0.8 and the default strneght of psyrdo (1.0) works best on cel sources, I encoded virtually everything like that (now you can probably stalk out who I am? Ohwell).
Handbrake should expose most of these options to you in some advanced dialogs, too, AFAIK, the only troubl emight be to find how it has renamed them. Godspeed?
No frogs allowed
>>13964655
I have no clue what any of this means but I'll fiddle around tomorrow and see what happens. Thanks regardless. Also, did an encode today after fiddling around and it looks slightly better, but barely. 2.7gb for the first episode from a 5.9gb BD raw. Late at the moment. I'll post pics tomorrow and try to get it upload if it's final.
>>13964768
I am a sad frog.
>>13965270
Settings to x264 are best (AFAIK) explained here: http://www.chaneru.com/Roku/HLS/X264_Settings.htm
Between those two who overrall is a worse person and more villainous?
>>14006200
The only thing villainous about that pic is the fucking Code Geass reject on the left. Not saying IBO is a work of art, but jesus fuck that animation is disgusting. I'll never bring myself to watch 00 or Seed, or fucking anything from that lazy shit ass autistic looking era.
>>14006200
Hell if I know, the show on the right isn't even half over. Funpost later.
>>14006200
I like Shinn but ahahaha he looks like shit.
Could Mika in the Barbados defeat Setsuna in the Exia? To keep it fair: the hypothetical match would be on land.
Beam weapons > Nana-laminate armor.
>>14004368
I was thinking more melee combat.
Keep in mind Mika fights against second-rate pirates, glorified militarized police forces, and an honor guard, most of whom don't see real battle all that often (if ever).
Fun fact: In a way, these two protagonists are the closest to being Gundam.
