If true, too little, too late.

Kits when?

>>13636698
That shit is a worthy successor to Zero EW
Great colors. No overplayed red, white and blue.
How the fuck do those wings work? Nanomachines connect them?
>>13636717
How do you make a kit for a suit that has wings that aren't even physically connected to the unit? Katoki is a madman and I love him.

You find a way, of course.

It's a metaphor for the franchise.

>>13662936
Now it can destroy several planets at once, instead of only one at a time, duh.

Because now it can destroy half a dozen planets in one shot without having to park itself near them.

Why are you trying to revive this old meme?

>>13654290
Because you have terrible taste.

How?

It's Alternate UC.

I personally wasn't all that impressed. The action was fine, but everything else was just "ok".

>YO: I’m humbled [laugh]. I think in that sense Thunderbolt started off in a very fortunate position. Just as the lack of attention given the first Gundam TV series allowed it some freedom, my Gundam series is on a unique platform with Shogakukan’s Superior, so it’s not as tied down. In the beginning, I told them that I wanted to be able to work freely, even if that meant it wasn’t part of the Gundam canon, and they told me I could do what I want. However, that makes it difficult to adapt into anime and Gundam models... I suppose [laugh].
>CS: So it wasn’t that they approached you and said, “Do it at this point in the Universal Century calendar.”

>YO: It’s a bit off from the so-called “correct history,” but I did that on purpose [laugh]. I started off on the sidelines without much attention, which actually allowed some freedom as I wrote and I didn’t have to defend myself, so I decided to change what I wanted, and I think it was good that I could start that way. Being in that position is similar to how it was for the first Gundam, so I’ve been happy with it.

>I went in without reading manga
what was up with glasses boy handing out tissues? is he the main characters friend? also it would appear that main character was in a relationship with the cute captain. also when do the space monks show up?

Ah yes, the annual muh burgers posting marathon.

It's the most wonderful time of the year.

Kamille, Bright and Fa. Also that scene where ja dough makes hammin cry.

Gundam Seed and Destiny have a lot of porn.

I think SDF Macross showed Valkyrie model kits with the Tamiya(?) logo on them in one episode, if that counts.

Was Vifam the series with the giant "Bandai" container?

>>13666055
almost every single one

The ending was great.

>There was literally zero reason for Hitomi to go back, thematically or plot wise
1 - she went back to her family
2 - putting Gaia behind is symbolism for growing up by letting go of escapism and accepting to deal with reality

>>13649468
>But man that ending was a let down. Feel like they went with the ending just because they wanted to make it bittersweet. There was literally zero reason for Hitomi to go back, thematically or plot wise.

That's what bothered you about Escaflowne's ending? Not the literal, deus ex machina happening when the writers suddenly realize that they're out of time and budget and just have a wizard magically fast-forward all remaining plot threads to their abrupt conclusions?

>>13649468
>Episode where Escaflowne gets repaired is the best ep.
The fight at the end fucking traumatized me as a kid.

I personally believe Xabungle is one of the best put-together /m/ shows out there. It's pretty much always the same level of rock solid the whole way throughout, and is enjoyable to watch.

HAYATE NO YO NIIII

>>13665088
It's because you don't actually have to take Tomino's writing seriously whenever you watch it, unlike all his other shows.

Sometimes, I wish there were more lighthearted adventure /m/ shows like Xabungle, Gorg, and Conan than MUH SERIOUS WAR DRAMA that everyone here seems to jerk off to.

To applicably place these everywhere on an MS's body would be very difficult and likely expensive. It has to be remembered that things like the Pscyo were pretty big one-offs.

There's got to be a lot of money going into the things. A LOT.

>>13663663
Yeah, I think that's the main limitation. Reflector Bits have really small coverage, they pretty much only work as point defense. Covering an entire suit in them would take so many generators as to be cost and manufacturing time prohibitive.

I always thought they would be kind of finicky compared to a traditional I-field. Needed to be tuned for that sweet mirror effect. That's fine when it's part of a limited production run special model that probably comes with additional budget for specialised maintenance, maybe not so much for general use.

Speaking of maintenance, it's probably easier when they're discrete units, but that isn't a slam dunk or anything.

Reflector bits are also part of a design brief, so they're built with an intended purpose. With the Psyco and Shambloo it was for improved non-LOS saturation bombardment. It's not something just tacked on.

That's my take, anyway.

Can't help but I hope you'll make it. Good luck.

Friendly bump for great justice.

Thanks man, the last scanlation group i was working with abruptly died on me and nobody actually cared about continuing Rem.

I know we've had one artbook posted here, but I am planning on eventually taking apart all 4 of mine and scanning those when I have some free time.

Hopefully never, OYW can fuck off.
