The Death demon squad from Layzner were the biggest fans of Lord Humungus from Mad Max 2

That one guy surviving after being blown up in his mecha didn't make any sense.
>>14594997
I guess he was really lucky
>>14594675
Well he was rather badass.
What does /m/ think of the arwing walker? Seems like a p decent transforming mecha to me.
>>14594487
They should've went full Macross and given it a Battroid mode as well.
>>14594498
I'm not sure how they'd pull that off. It has jump jets in walker mode, anyway.
>>14594517
The "head" of the Duck mode (the cockpit) would become the torso in Battroid mode, and the "tail" of the Duck mode (the nosecone) could pretty easily split into a pair of arms.

The sequel to Special Rescue Police Winspector begins!
One year after Winspector leaves Japan to work with the International Criminal Police Organization in Paris, Commander Shunsuke Masaki has created a new Super Hi-Tech Rescue Command, codenamed Solbrain, as a replacement.
Learning from the mistakes of the past, Solbrain's new suits are slightly less powerful than Winspector's, but have a longer equip time. Additionally, Solbrain is no longer housed within the Tokyo Metropolitan Police building, and a new high tech arsenal of equipment has been designed to support the crew.
Rookie detective Daiki Nishio, internationally trained by the FBI and selected from candidates all over Japan, leads the team against threats that are too dangerous for normal police officers to handle. Utmost is Solbrain's mission: to prevent crime by saving the hearts and souls of criminals.
On Daiki's first case, an unidentified flying object appears over Tokyo and begins to rain destruction on the city. Solbrain springs into action to identify this mysterious craft and save the city before there's nothing left to save!
Solbrain has some amazingly written episodes. I really think you're going to enjoy this show. Some of the storylines just blew me away.
Q & A:
Q. What's a BothWinder?
A. It's a magnet beam grappling hook. As for the name, it's what they named the toy.
Q. What kind of car is the SolGallop?
A. It's a Toyota Sera. The Sera actually had the gull wing doors in real life. One thing that is not clear early on in the series is that the SolGallop actually changes form like the WinSquad/FireSquad. It's not quite as obvious because it doesn't change color, but when Daiki changes, there's a bubble shaped dome shield that covers the car.
Q. Who's that yellow robot in the opening/ending?
A. SolDozer. You'll see him next episode.
Q. Will we ever see Ryoma, Bikel, and Walter again?
A. Spoilers. ;-)
Been anticipating this ever since you did that last Winspector ep. Thanks a lot, SO, and bump for you!
Neat!
Semi-related, did anyone else play Shatterhand as a kid? That game was the shit.
Is Kamille autistic?
>>14593938
Nah, he's just a teenager
>>14593938
this pic is garbage
>>14593938
Yes so it is easier for the autistic Zetafags (all of them) to self-insert and fulfill their power fantasy when he pilots better than Char Aznable.
What is Nagai's fucking problem?
Seriously, I want to know what his fucking problem is.
>>14593885
>pottery.jpg
You have no idea what you're talking about, eh?
>>14593885
Devilman G is not by Nagai.
With that said, there's a similar quote in Devilman vs Getter Robo.
So who is the better polite?
They are all flying a Lockheed F-104 Starfighter
How much planning time does Batman have?
>>14593837
It's always Batman. Batman has infinite plot armor
It's a tie between Max, Wedge, and Fox.
So wait, does Mellowlink's ending imply that it ends at the same time that VOTOMS ends? Both of them have a war starting again.
I believe it's a prequel; IIRC the ending is the START of the war -- or one of its permutations -- in the VOTOMS series.
(Chirico's cameo appearance is an anachronism.)
>>14594249
But from what i heard, it took place during the Votoms TV series and it happened somewhere else. It already implied that the war has ended with all the high brass doing something else mostly.
>>14594249
Mellowlink has the Veela, so it had to have taken place during the same time frame the VOTOMS show takes place in.
>The mecha has a mind of its own
>Acts of its own will to help or protect the protagonist
I love this. What other anime do this?
Also, post whatever other tropes you love.
>>14593217
It works best if the mech doesn't communicate verbally.

I thought that was an upscale
>>14593182
I've seen the first three. Haven't seen Mazinkaiser, but I have seen Shin Mazingerr Z.
Will Gundam Sentinel ever receive an anime adaption?
No.
It would be very cool, but I think it would have happened already if it was going to happen.

Raws for the second BD box are up. As usual, stuff that was poorly upscaled is taken from the DVDs. And man, this set had a lot of weird fuckups.

What are the most soul crushing mecha anime?
Something sad that leaves you depressed.
Mahoromatic had a nice ending, and although not mecha Chrono Crusade (both anime and manga) had a good one.

Is the title related to a character being number 3?
God tier characters
>>14590734
>there will never be Xenogears figures or model kits
How about a Xenogears/saga/blade thread /m/?
Are the Xeno threads on /m/ usually better than the ones on /v/?
>>14590105
Only when they exclude the shitstains known as Saga and Blade.
Gears not only had the only good story, but also the only fun gameplay.
>>14590126
My nigga. Couldn't agree more.
>Make the mech humanoid in concept
>But don't give it the ability to go to a prone position and then return to standing from the prone
Why?
>>14589827
it's like it'd be better if they were all straight up tanks or some shit. crazy huh. but honestly if you went prone in a MS you would be hanging from your seat. not the the most comfortable thing. unless its in zero g
>>14589827
How do you mean?
Any design can be animated to do those things.
they'd never built a mech before
