Tomino is only still alive cause he hasn't realised he's an adult yet
Which astroboy anime is better? 1980s or 2000s version?
Best animated adaptation of the character to date.

Watched the first episode and it felt like it was really rushed. Does it keep that same pace and how does the 00s version compare?
The 80s show is my least favorite. Everything is pretty bland and toned down for international audiences.
I just realized something really obvious that I've never seen brought up before:
Killy is a traditional FPS protag. That's the whole concept behind his character:
>he almost never talks
>his field of vision is filled with gauges, pop-up windows, crosshairs and stuff
>his primary means of solving problems is shooting at them
>he looks like an average dude
>he barely expresses any emotions (cause it's the 90s and facial animation in vidya sucks)
>he never runs out of stamina
>he has a health bar/regen system (body mass % restauration)
>his character boils down to completing his mission
>he levels up instead of smoothly getting better at stuff
The tagline of the manga is "adventurer Killy in the cyber-dungeon quest", but he really doesn't come off as an adventurer, he's just a player-character with almost no personality of his own. What little character arc he has consists in becoming less human and more focused on his mission. Which mostly involves walking a lot and shooting stuff.
It turns out to be way more compelling than it sounds at first.
Damn! Thats a neat interpretation OP. I always saw the Megastructure as similar to the levels of oldschool Quake/Unreal, miles and miles of machines and alien landscapes filled with factory-grown things that want to murder you.
Also Killys gun is just a miniature BFG9000 imo
>>15407994
You had me at Quake. What the fuck is this show? Any shamblers?
>>15408019
Don't get excited just yet. It's only been written in manga form and the 'anime' is just clips of a production studio making test runs with the material that Nihei ultimately said no to. There's going to be a movie soon, so there's that.
Why doesn't /m/ talk about Don't fist android girls, the show?

I dunno, those character designs look pretty fucking boring
This guy fucks his mobile suits up too much to be an ace.
the only prerequisite is kills
there's ain't any nigga clause that says "get wrecked and we revoke your ace license"

Say something nice about a show you dislike.
Just to get it out of the way, I thought Gundam Seed Destiny had a really well done soundtrack.
Destiny Gundam was a well designed mech.
G-Self was a well designed mech.

What the fuck did he mean by this?
He was never loyal to the Zabi family?

>"It's not loyalty if I never liked those people"
You should now by know that Char is a sociopath
>>15406826
He's delusional and quite possibly has psychosis.
You have remember that this is the same guy who would believe that dropping an asteroid to kill every living thing on it is a good idea.
What kind of mech would Cerise have?

awoo
Alternatively the power-armour from Jin-Roh.

What's a good mecha series for someone who refuses to watch mecha anime?
Something where the mecha are important, but the character drama is what brings you in.

That's most good mecha shows.

Like every mecha anime?
Then you can show him whatever you like.
>Wing is the most popular, or at least, well known Gundam in the west
>/m/ hates it.
>Seed is arguably the most popular Gundam in Japan, outside UC in general.
>/m/ hates it.
Is this just a 4chan contrarian thing? I know "x board hates everything" is something people love to say, but what is about these two shows in particular that makes you guys hate them? I know just because something is popular doesn't mean its good, but there's gotta be something that made these two huge hits.
>>15406153
Personally, I find that there are things to enjoy and things to hate about both.
>>15406153
No, SEED and Wing have legitimate problems that a nostalgia fag would never be able to see. SEED suffers from tryhard edginess, Jesus Yamato, and a shit load of flashbacks and reused animation. Wing is blatant fujoshit, MCs are boring and unlikeable, and the pacifist shit is reptitive. Personally I feel SEED is better than Wing and I'm from the West. But neither are as good as the UC and as for AUs, G Gundam will always be the best.
>>15406153
/m/ hates every Gundam series except for the ones normal people dislike aka G-Reco and Turn A.

Sure it is

That means his brain is functioning, G-Reco was great.

Does that meant he finally gains his sanity back after the witch is dead?
