Island Wars in 11 days

That's an impressive diaroma. I'm sure it was easy for them to commission it given they could essentially write a blank cheque to any builders they wanted, but it's still nice work by whoever did it. I didn't even know it was airing this soon and can't say as I'm overly enthused about it regardless though.
Psst...Try waifus a shit.A SHIIT!
>>14607838
I'd be lying if I said I cared
where did they go wrong and where could they have improved?
p.s. big zam was probably one of my favorite mechs of all time. ITS JUST SO BIG.
>where did they go wrong
Investing in Mobile Armor wunderwaffen
>where could they have improved
building more Gelgoogs, not dropping colonies

Nothing. Even if they'd mass produced a thousand of them at the prototypes specification (instead of simplifying it for production, which would probably have happened) it wasn't a war winning weapon. It was big, slow, overheated quickly, was weak to physical weapons and required three pilots instead of a mobile suit's one. They're an physically imposing machine, but once you get over that impression they're fairly vulnerable to attack and just couldn't win the war for Zeon because of all their issues. To be of any real use as a war winning platform the engineers would have needed more time, money and resources at the design stage to work out some of it's issues and put the whole in a smaller, or at least more efficient package that wouldn't cost as much to make or be as vulnerable on a battlefield.
How is this series so popular, yet receives such little support from bandai?
How many wing kits do we have? How much wing merchandise is there?
it shocks me that such a popular series is left so unsupported.
Also, post pics from/discuss wing
>>14607560
Because it doesn't sell as well as UC.
heavy arms was the realest nigga trowa was effay as fuq
How much wings could Gundam Wing if Gundam could wing wings?
Good take on the "foiled again" villain. That shows his true potential as a threat in the later parts of the series. Fairly developed. I honestly don't get why people hate him as a Villain. MEME PICTURES REVOLVING AROUND JERID ARE APPRECIATED.
>>14607414
he more or less exists as the series punching bag, and his only plot purpose is to inconvenience Kamille while he culls secondary characters who've completed their arcs.
Hes more a utilitarian character to the plot, rather than a romantic one.
>>14607414
I do appreciate the idea that Jerid was the foil to Kamille. Both start off as obsessed brats that basically have a dick-measuring contest in how many friends/girl-friends they can kill. But by the end, Jerid is still trying to kill his rival Kamille, while Kamille himself has moved and is busy fighting the bigger bads of Haman and Scirocco. Kamille matured and looked at a bigger picture than just a rivalry and revenge.
>>14607418
He managed to romantically attract the best girl in the series, so thats something at least.
Had the Black Tri-Stars lived to be sortied at A Baoa Qu, what units would they have flown? Plain Rick Doms? Gelgoogs?Or perhaps a trio of Zudahs?
For this scenario, we're assuming they either bailed out upon being shot down by Amuro, or were otherwise defeated but not killed.
They're Oldtype aces, so probably Gelgoogs.
Though Amuro was actively going full future-sight in his battles by that point, so I doubt they would've lasted all that much longer against him anyway.

I wanna put together that outfit. I wonder how much it would cost?
Purple polo - easy
Black shirt with purple cuffs - probably sold somewhere, shouldn't be impossible to find
Long-sleeved purple shirt with black cuffs - as long as I can find it I just cut off sleeves and stitch to the inside of the other one, maybe get a size up for extra baggy
Denim overalls - super easy, then just fuck its shit up to look lcosplay and add a little beam badge
leather (???) wrap thing - not a clue, they don't look hard to find
purple wrap thing - again, not a clue but it could probably be made from cloth because it's under the leather for the most part
fatass socks - elastic and some sewing skills, easy, maybe find something to use as a base since ironic 70s and 80s fashions are a meme now
shoes - any cheap shoe store with retarded tacky colors
all together - several hours of labor, a couple pieces of clothing, and finding a little Dom monoeye accessory and you have an easy, stylish Domfu cosplay that will probably break the bank

But are you a cute little girl? This is the important part.
>yfw this manga has a better portrayal of war and giant robots than any Tomino show ever made
Why does Tomino even try? He was lucky Miyazaki decided to make kiddy movies instead of war stories.
Miyazaki is an artist; Tomino is an entertainer. Makes no sense to compare them
Strong bait here but I don't seee mecha. At least post god-warriors.
>>14607239
>art can't have entetainment as its primary purpose
Even ignoring Gundam's themes about war and whatnot... if you feel invested in what's going on, if you feel at least a little shitty when something bad is happening or a sense of victory when something is achieved, and if the work is well-executed, then it is good art. Miyazaki's work isn't going to hugely change the world as far as environmental understanding goes just as Tomino's work isn't gonna prevent war from happening. Art has other purposes beyond making worldly change that the creator sociopolitically agrees with.
What did he mean by this?
>>14606874
I guess the pro-Zeekfags would ignore it.

He's not good at haggling prices at markets.
>>14607157

Yes, anon, it is.
So some of you may be familiar with the Youtube channel Studio Megaane. The Japanese fellow behind it has produced a ton of "8-bit" renditions of anime music, with a particular focus on tokusatsu and mecha.
He also collaborated with a few other Japanese artists and produced vocal versions of many of his pieces. Sadly some time ago, for an undisclosed reason (at least as far as I know), he took all of those vocal tracks off of Youtube altogether. I suspect he either had a falling out with the other folks he was collabing with or he was getting DMCA notices. In any case, they are simply gone, even from his proper website (which only links to his Youtube tracks anyhow).
Luckily, I had been ripping most (though not all) of the vocal tracks as they came along on his Youtube feed. I only saved the stuff that was of interest to me, but there's plenty here, and I thought I would share this collection with all of you:

To check out Studio Megaane's non-vocal tracks, his Youtube page can be found here:

Neat. Although to be honest, I prefer the non-vocal stuff. They make great ringtones.
Damn, that's a shame. Still, thanks for the rips.

Any word if it comes with effect parts like the original HG?... wait, I forgot this is Bandai we're talking about.
>>14606265
They'll be P-Bandai. I'd put money on it.

So i've been watching through all the Gundam shows and movies in release order and I just watched pic related.
I'll admit it, I cried like a little bitch.
I was expecting another above-average kid's show about mech but gotthe horrors of war and the loss of innocenceinstead.
Would you recommend?

C'mon now anon, I know you're better than this.
Is this the right place to talk about the battletech universe?
>>14605987
I know nothing about Battletech except that the Atlas is fucking sick.
>>14605995
That is the only thing you need to know. We'll that, and that clans are for dirty cheating little fucks whose parents buy them whatever they want.fuck you jeremy you piece of shit
>>14606000
Nice numbers, and yeah even the creator of battletech regrets implementing the clans just by how overpowering their weaponry is
Is there any /m/ show where the characters pilot fighters instead of mechs? Like Star Fox or Rogue Squadron style? As long as the MC is in a jet I'd be interested, he can fight other fighters or mecha or kaiju or whatever. As long as there is a jet and it is sci-fi.

Where can I watch Votoms? I tried downloading a few episodes from the batch torrent on BakaBT, but seeders are at 0.
I then resorted to streams but the only one I managed to find is on vimeo, has shit quality and only goes up to episode 8.
I really want to watch it but I can't find a way to. Where can I go?
>>14605683
