Did Kabuto as a show solely exist to make little kids cry or what?
>>13959198
This is like the one good part of Kabuto outside of zany Dark Kitchen shit. Shame Sasword's character was so butchered for the entire middle act of the show, because this part is great.
Eh, I dunno, the second half was pretty damn goofy, almost on par with Den-O. And the ending is one of the more uplifting ones of the early Heisei era, especially when compared to Ryuki, Faiz and Blade.
>>13959198
Nah, it solely exist to make housewives wet, except it couldn't even did that right because Hibiki made bigger numbers on the female demographic.
So now that the dust has settled, what do you think?
>>13959109
Wasn't good at release but is considered fine wine now.
>>13959109
I'm still amazed at how completely the final generation fell apart, and how the story went out on wagon wheels.
Also, Faradin is one of the most tooth-grindingly boring arcs I've ever seen. It was the very first generation, too! It's like they were trying to cram 0079, Gundam Seed, and I don't really have an analogue for the last one into a single 50-episode series.
This show was so doomed from the start, it wasn't even funny. (Also, what was up with the distorted and ugly character designs? Like the guy with the gigantic red afro?)
>>13959109
Shit then, shit now. And Kio has nothing to do with it. The villains were rubbish, as was the writing in general and it was quite lazy in many ways too.
how did the Fortress of Zeta become Turn A's Safe Space?
>>13958940
That's because people are realizing Zeta sucks ass while Turn A doesn't.

Conrarians being contrarian as usual. Eventually things will swing back the other way just because no one can ever stand to agree with the perceived majority for long.
Who knew about the Lelouch's plan?

C2 and Suzaku?
C.C and 'Zaku.
Orange knew as well, judging from what he said after Zero stepped on him.
>>13958474
I totally forgot about Orange-kun. A shame, really, since he's the coolest character in CG

[PTSD intensifies]
So you know how the Gundams in Greco have that weird G thing in the name like G-Arcane and G-Self?
That's because they were made at the G-IT Labs. The G doesn't stand for Gundam. It just signifies it was developed at the G-IT Labs
>G-Self
>G-Lucifer
>G-Arcane
>Re G-IT
>Kabakali G-IT
>G-Rach
>
So what is the importance of G-IT Labs? Why are they so pivotal in the development of G type mobile suits?
It's because the G stands forGundam
G-Self wasn't developed at G-IT Labs though. It was developed on Towasanga.
Then why didn't they call this a Gundam then? Huh? Huh? Checkmate, Snapfag-cunt.
Finally finished watching Nadesico today. It was...not that good. Akito's PTSD was annoying and so was his passive attitude about the girls pining for him, the constant love triangle antics got old fast, the dialogue would be too fast paced at times, it took 13 or so episodes for the plot to actually go somewhere and give us some clues as to who/what the Jovians are and when they finally do it's retarded. And not the fun kind of retarded either.
But most of all the ending was fucking terrible. Incredibly rushed and left too many loose ends. But I did like most of the characters and it was funny most of the time even if some comedy moments felt jarring. A character would die and then it'd jump cut to a character making a funny face.
It wasn't the most awful anime I've ever watched but I've certainly seen better. Just very average. I couldn't really recommend it to anyone.Ryoko best girl
it was pretty good desu senpai
>>13957153
>Ryoko best girl
well you're right about at least one thing

Someone who finally agrees with me about Nadesico.

Why are there 2 SAC Majors? And who's the blond?
>>13957383
>Why are there 2 SAC Majors
One is series, one is SSS.
One of the manga flavors, I forget specifically which

The blond one is actually one of her creepy internet spawns from man-machine interface.
Can we discuss something about Gundam Wing for a second? Did anyone else feel they seriously dropped the ball with this show? The lead writer left almost half-way through writing the script and you can see around episode 15 when things start to feel different, character progression completely leaves and the show goes down the gutter.
I mean we know they wanted to implement their own version of Newtypes into the show, with Quatre having psychic powers (we see glimpses of it in the early episodes), but once the lead writer left, it never goes anywhere. Even his whole 'soul of outerspace' thing goes out the window and they just mention it at the end in the stupidest way by saying, "Oh it's Heero who is the soul of outerspace!"
You look up the OST online and there is so much music that was never used that it feels like in retrospect, the rest of the show turns into a complete shell of itself. It's sad because the designs are still awesome and you wonder what would have happened if the main writer remained, but instead we go from philosophical discussions about war into Zechs becoming a retard and saying "I'm going to blow up the earth to end all wars" which is again, completely out of character.
The more I keep analying the first 15-20 episodes of the show and seeing it later, the more I feel like the series never really showed its true ending. There is a lot of artwork depicting the characters in different attire, as if to suggest later in the series they go through a lot of changes and begin to wear different clothing. Heero's relationship with Relena also completely stops around episode 15 and never actually comes back, whereas in the beginning it suggests their relationship would become complex and emotional.
The more I keep seeing this show, the more I feel like it could have been so much more. Has anyone else noticed this?
The best way to describe Wing is "Basically as ridiculous as G Gundam was but in reverse taking itself seriously"

How would you get steampunk technology into space?
>So far ive got load a shuttle into a steam cannon that is flown into the upper atmosphere.
Could you even get into space using steam punk technology?
>>13956385
Rockets n' shit.
Or some type of superpowered black ice.
>>13956385
I'd glue a bunch of shitty pieces of metal things to my hat and act like a massive faggot.
>>13956385
>Could you even get into space using steam punk technology?
Sure. But would you be able to have steam punk tech that would work in the cold vacuum of space is the real question.
How would things have changed if Katz survived Zetaand ZZ?
A potentially better protagonist than what we got for ZZ
>>13955788
His dad would still be alive for one.
Judau and Katz would be feuding. Potentially they'd be able to mellow each other out and grow as individuals, but their initial relationship would be very rocky (kind of like how Katz died to begin with).
Katz would, with Kamille out of commission, believe he's the most rightful person to pilot the Zeta. He's the experienced soldier in comparison to Judau, but Judau would be the naturally more talented pilot. Katz would still have Sarah's death weighing on him and the way Judau acts could potentially remind him of Scirocco with the way Judau naturally attracts people (if DWG2 is anything to go by, Scirocco, Roux, and Judau got along very well).
So until the ZZ Gundam actually gets there, there would be a back and forth of pilots for the Zeta and the Mk II.
Eventually they'd learn to get along and may even become friends. Judau and Katz will definitely both be broken up byHayato's deathand they'd cement a friendship after that, even if there's some lingering doubts when Haman continues to try to pull Judau to her side.
Overall he'd be piloting the Zeta more frequently. Mondo or Iino would likely die because then there'd be one too many pilots. Iino more likely because Iino's fucking useless.
At the end of the series Katz would remain with the Federation and join Amuro & Bright in Londo Bell, probably becoming the pilot of the ReGZ once Amuro gets his Nu. He'll have toned down his bratness by then and have a stronger sense of duty. He'd have a feud with Gyunei but it'd be more him trying to get Gyunei to realize what he's doing will only lead to heartache and one or both of them dying, because he tried to do the same thing with Sarah. Char essentially becoming Scirocco, Quess becoming Sarah, and Gyunei becoming himself will be what Katz would see and he'd be pissed at Char almost as much as Amuro was. He'd try his best to stop the repeat of that tragedy.
Just finished watching F91.
It might have been rushed and somewhat disjointed in some scenes, but for what it was it was really good, and it just disappoints me that it wasn't a full series.
Despite being extremely hectic, it did have good character details and moments, so at least the movie budget was used well. Iron Mask kind of went off the rails in the last half an hour, I can't really tell what his plan was beyond being crazy.
I love the soundtrack. I know it was meant to parody Star Wars but it's still good on its own.
>>13955216
Heavily inspired by or imitating does not equal parody.
>>13955220
Details. I wish the federation had more new suits though instead of using the Jegan again. We only got that Guntank and the Heavygun.
