What's /m/s opinion on the Five Star Stories ova? I haven't read the manga yet, but the ending feels really fucking disjointed. A bunch of plot points come out of nowhere like Sopps wifes ghost.
Overall though I think it's really enjoyable adventure and has some fucking gorgeous character designs.
I like that they leave out the robots until the end. Makes them feel so much more grand when they're used sparingly.
Also I want to fuck Sopp.

>I like that they leave out the robots until the end
The manga has a prologue involving a robot fight. I think it did a great job of setting the tone and I wish the movie kept it.
>>14614214
Gorgeous adaption of the first volume of the manga with a great soundtrack. I love everything about it. Check out the manga.
>>14614216
The movie also skipped the ending where Sopp shows Lachesis the creepy-ass Jagd Mirage skeleton and they both talk about the inevitable wars that will eventually occur. I thought that was an even bigger part to skip because it really sets the tone for FSS as opposed to the movie's more shoujo ending.
why is western mecha anime so gay?

To parent/future parent /m/ anons, do you have plans for bringing forth the next generation of mecha fans?

Haha, good one.
Have them watch 0079 first.
The answer is obvious, we all become /m/or/m/ons. By which, I mean, we pool resources and buy a fuck-huge compound in butfuck nowhere and create a mecha religious cult. It'll be like those aliens from Galaxy Quest and the "historical documents" they mimic and worship.
So, Psycho Zaku.
Was it ever explained why it required full amputation? Why not ports on the spinal cord itself that bypass the nerves at the appropriate levels from C5 to S2?
Why have the ports at the point of amputation?
>>14611694
Thunderbolt is completely retarded and barely UC, and the anime adaption of it doesn't even get to the REALLY stupid parts you see later in the manga.
Because amputation allowing for the pilot to literally control the suit with 1:1 precision is visually more compelling compared to someone potentially getting a stroke through implanted interface
I dunno
It's a stupid waste of human resources and I'm legitimately disappointed they haven't bothered looking into limb regeneration like in 00. It's kind of where all this stem cell research is supposed to culminate in; prosthetics are only temporary solutions. And for some stupid reason, UC's prosthesis are downright archaic compared to what we can do now
>>14611742
>UC's prosthesis are downright archaic compared to what we can do now
The finger-movement through nerve control is pretty far beyond what we can do today
If pilots from Gundam used Pokemon instead of mobile suits, what would their team look like?
I'd say Full Frontal would use a Scizor, Genosect and Groudon. I'm having a hard time picturing what Banana would use tho.
Rapidash for one
Banana would use Arceus
>>14611334
The fuck he wouldn't. He's too piss weak for mighty Arceus. I think he'd probably just use Latias at best, if you really want to give him a legendary
How is your banner contest going, /m/? 45 is a high number of submissions.

During the loadout thread yesterday I saw a picture of what was basically a humanoid Panzer (complete with a pintle mounted machine gun in the torso) surrounded by modified german field artillery such as 88mm Flak and 75mm Pak Guns meant for handheld use, didn't stick around to find out what the series was called so can anyone be of help?

Not anime but there is something you might check out

Really struggling based on the information you've given.
Anime wise the closest I've found is "little girls as tanks" based stuff..
Outside of anime well there is a lot of weird world war stuff out there and even my google fu is failing me.
The closest I came was:

I might be remembering wrong but I think there's also a video game based on that concept.
kids have no interest in /m/echa
kids were a mistake,
they're nothing but trash
You can't battle gunpla.
In real life that is.
Heybot will save /m/echa for kids. Only 5 weeks before it start airing.
Hoping it will get subs.
Would IBO have worked better as a high budget six episode OVA?

I hope that decision ties in to the games plot, because it looks fucking terrible.
What the fuck was her problem?
>hating coordies
>problem
She was the archetypal rich spoiled brat forced into a life-or-death situation, and watched her dad die in front of her. She just happened to be the main character's love interest, which extended her programmed life span beyond what it would normally be.
Also, can't unsee Hirai sameface, she looks like one of the male characters.
She was a talentless natural, not among superior coordinators worthy of Kira's grace.
Can someone explain to me what really are newtypes and why souls are weighed down by gravity? I finished Zeta last night but it all went over my head.

Why is Demonbane whose original games and novels are not even translated, so wanked and memetic in foreighn internet?
I don't know why.
>>14606933
It is though retard.
https://vndb.org/v231
>>14606944
Isn't it very poor-translated?
And, Kishin Hishou is not still translated.
Demonbane meme is one of dumbest meme in internet.
And, i can't understand why people treat Demonbane as Suggversal garbage, not Shonen Super Robot eroge.
Which Cyborg 009 series is better to start with, the 1979 version or 2001? I'm okay with watching both eventually, just wondering what's considered more accessible.
There's no decent subs for the second half of the 2001 one and there's only some of the 1979 one subbed.
The series is criminally ignored by westerners
>>14606510
I think the 2001 one was dubbed but I don't know how far that goes.
>dubbed
Yeah I know but sometimes you gotta take what you can get.
You'd think Discotek would've picked this up by now...
