Whys the animations so clunky, goddamn. BF never had this problem did it? What is studio 3 doing?

>>14855264
Bunch of different factors. Budget, skill of the staff, what the director thinks is good enough, schedule, character/mecha designs, you get the idea.

>>14855264
Didn't you know, anon? Robots are clunky.

>>14854360
The idea really only works on battleships because with something the size of a mobile suit or other similar sized Mecha the power generator needed to create a deflector shield would take too much space and be very cumbersome.

>>14854450

Not really, considering I-Fields sorta do the same thing and everyone has those or an equivalent after a certain point in Gundam. That's not even counting non-gundam shows or Super Robots. They prefer for the mech to take damage instead of having a shield.

Also I forgot about AT-Fields and that's my bad. That's like the epitome of a deflector shield because it's the essential "no" barrier to attacks.

>>14854450
Do battleships use it? It seems like battleships are really fucking weak and blow up extremely easily when mobile suits decide they want to fuck up some ships.

>>14853959
You already described the general opinion.

>>14853959
>First season goes pretty decently then season two fucks it up?
good job op you already figured it out.

Gundam 00 S2 gets a lot of undeserved hate. Yeah it wasn't up to the standards of s1, but it wasn't bad. There was character development, pretty cool fights, and the only reason people seem to hate it was because it went back to the old Gundam formula.

They have money.

If they have money, then how come IBO looks like total shit?

I like when the Shwing Together Robot and the Shwing Dinosaur team up to stop Ganymede from destroying the Earth, and American Dio and his super cool stealth bomber robot that I don't think I ever heard a name for does crazy flips while duel wielding machine guns in space.

fuck off austin

Zone of the enders

Okay I consider myself a good SEED fan but neither of those are the "Best"

I will say it's better than 00 but Kira is only better than Setsuna by a tiny margin

SEED and SEED Destiny were both enjoyable shows that I liked.

Tomino never had his own franchise. Gundam has always been in the hands of production committees and Bandai. I doubt he even wanted Gundam to be a franchise.

MGS and Kojima are similar- he kept on being forced to make MGS sequels by Konami because of all the fans, and now after they fired him they still continue to rape its carcass.

Nagano seriously needs to do more with FSS and let others in on the franchise. Make some more kits, give an anime or video game, etc. It feels like all he is doing is just sitting on it and all of its potential. Kind of the opposite problem with Anno, Kawamori, and Lucas.

I liked how Tomino removed all the merchandising-friendly elements from the story when he wrote the novel versions of the original Gundam. There were no monsters-of-the-week, Amuro was in the regular military, and the story had a conclusive ending.

He is history though.

>>14851009
In some ways that's unfair, in other ways it's accurate. I'm more interested in the author-insert aspect of Yang. I think he starts the story off around the same age as the author was when he was writing the books, and the author is a history buff.

Yang is the sort of Mary Sue whose flaws are all exceedingly perfect in their humanity and/or lovable. But I don't care, I couldn't help myself, he became my ultimate role model.

>>14851009
How can you be Mary Sue if you die?

Gundam F91 and Stardust Memory was 1991 so I'm gonna have to say 90's Sunrise

Both.

80s for Layzner and votoms

90s for braves and G gundam

>>14850893
10s Sunrise for Tiger and Bunny

>>14850602
Well, early Garo is kind of in that vein. Amemiya did that one so some of his style is sure to bleed through. It's got a more horror based aspect initially, but I wouldn't say it stays super gritty all the time.

>>14850613
Oh yeah, I saw S1 Garo. I don't know why I didn't start S2, I really liked it. So there's something already for me to watch, thank you!

Keitai Sosakan 7 was a great show. Very mature in its storytelling, some downright creepy episodes, and a fantastic end game.

Basically about a secret organization that uses AI cell phones and secret agents to track down cyber criminals. Bunch of long time toku actors are in it.

>Pumpkin spice twinkies
Are you kidding me? The twinkie is the last junk food snack I'd consider for a seasonal variant, and it's a shitty flavor at that.
Honestly if you seriously need worthless junk food for the fall season, pick up a box of those little debbie's brownies that are shaped like jack-o'-lanterns, that shit's good if only because little debbie's brownies are good regardless of whatever bullshit holiday they're based on.

But yeah totally, Zeta did drop the ball on newtypes. Cyber newtypes were a mistake.

This is a nice concept, but did it have to look like tuna?
