I watched the first three episodes on Sunrise's YT, and it's really not grabbing me. Things seem to abruptly shift between SERIOUS and ~comedy~, the main characters seem to do things for random and impulsive reasons, and there's inexplicably toilets in Gundams now.

Does it get better? I'm remembering everyone else saying it was really good and I'm just not feeling it.
>>
If those are your complaints, you're probably not going to like it.

It's got some cool robots though.
>>
Don't take it too seriously, it is good fun with gorgeous animation but the ending and the plot overrall is extremely rushed, it's not just the first episodes.

Still better than most shit that came out in the last 20 years

Nice blog.

>>
>>12481076
I'm following the plot fine it just seems dumb. Like, profoundly dumb. Nobody can decide how seriously they're taking anything and just randomly start doing stuff for no reason. Prime example: Bell in the first episode sees a pirate girl, gets a look that could be checking her out, then declares she's a horrible person who starts wars. Next episode they go on a wacky ostritch ride to rescue her, his best friend almost knocks her off the edge of a tower (played for laughs), and then it's revealed helping pirates earns you the death penalty. What.

>>12481478

Don't forget that you have an important political prisoner who is allowed to walk around free without any guards whatsoever, until suddenly there are totally guards everywhere and she has to be kept locked up.

Being locked up leads directly to her escape from her captors.

I would be worried that Tomino is suffering from dementia if it wasn't for the fact that this is par for the course for him.
>>
If A/Z had Tomino's lable on it, tominofags would defend it to the last drop of their blood like they do it with Greco. No matter how silly it is.
>>
>>12481517
Yeah, exactly. And the random way she goes "I didn't get tortured, don't worry!". I mean, was that the joke? Are we meant to know they're so hilariously nice they'd never torture her, and she's being ironic? Because that just seems like an incredibly fucking weird thing to say, and we really have no context at that point for if they would torture prisoners or not.

>>12481498
People said it was good, so I watched it. I've watched like three episodes, dude, I'm just trying to check if this is par for the course or if it just has a rough start.
>>
>>12481478
They repeated 100 times that Bellri falls in love for her.
He is also spying on the Megfauna, if you pay attention to what he says.

>>12481517
>Don't forget that you have an important political prisoner who is allowed to walk around free without any guards whatsoever, until suddenly there are totally guards everywhere and she has to be kept locked up.
They explained this too. Aida refused to acknowledge her true identity, so Cumpa just said "fine, rot in a tower".
>>
>>12481741

Doesn't explain why you let someone wander around free for a while before you make that decision, though. Its still a sudden and wild change of handling the situation. All because a reason is provided doesn't mean that the reason makes sense.
>>
>>12481741
But at that point he's not even on the megafauna. I only know what that is because of marketing material and /m/.

The only parts of this show that weren't forgettable were the cringeworthy idiocy. I'm not about to rewatch it to catalog which idiocy happened in what episode, I'm just going to mock it.
Amusing that you don't even try to defend said idiocy, you just act like it's irrelevant because I didn't autistically confine my criticism on a per-episode basis.
>>
>>12484840
Then maybe you could explain, because rewatching that bit again the only thing I can see that isn't correct is if you're nitpicking semantically about how he says "It's people like you who make people kill each other" instead, which isn't really that big a difference. The thrust of it stands: His previous exposure seems wholly negative, and then inexplicably, he goes off to rescue her, in what we later discover is an act which places him at risk of the death penalty.

The action was okay, not all it was cut out to be, but alright.

The comedy in G-Reco however was godawful. I can't remember ever even being lightly amused.
The problem is that if your characters are kooky and quirky 24/7, it seizes to be interesting or fun.

>>12485977
I'll say this slowly. The entire point of that scene is that Aida is someone who's actions Bellri's is completely perplexed over , he's a genius cadet that's never seen the world outside the Capital Tower and here comes a girl who uses questionable methods to achieve her goal. In the second episode his initial reasoning of rescuing her is to ;ure the pirates away from the area since obviously the first thing that pops into his head is the obvious that they're looking fr her so he goes to retrieve her in that he asks her again what her intentions are and she explains herself this once again is continued in episode 3 when they meet up again, his proposition isn't even remotely negative he's just curious because he's never met someone like her before and his worldview gets changed as a result this makes a lot more sense as we go on and learn more about the world, it's teachings and why people behave the way they do.

If anycase you seem a tad too stupid for this show ironic given how you called it idiotic a while ago, may a suggestion Aldnoah Zero for someone of your lack of intellectual?

As a humble suggestion, maybe if everything is completely clear when you find out about the spacedust everyone's huffing 12 episodes in or something, that should possibly be somewhere in the first three episodes so everyone doesn't think your characters are all weird irrational idiots.

Sure it did it throughout but considering a shit ton of people just died you would think they wouldn't put an incredibly important asset in their economy at risk for a gag. Not to mention the last several episodes pretty much removed humor for the most part and focused on the combat. Then they rush the final episode like crazy and then use up the precious last few minutes for gags.

Probably wouldn't have cared so much had they not rushed so much and made the ending combat so unfulfilling all around. I was really waiting for something major to happen, but then suddenly everyone's friends again.

They did also do that a lot in the rest of the series as well but again when your activley trying to kill one another mere seconds earlier I wouldn't like to think that would be a hard pill to swallow even for brain washed idiots.

Nah it was pretty clear from the get go you're just fucking stupid. Once again just watch simple shows like CA and A/Z, they seem to be a hit with the teenage crowd.
>>
>>12486046
Oh, I see what the issue is. You're actually so stupid you have no idea what you're talking about. That's not the face he makes when he says "It's people like you who get people killed", dingbat, he looks miserable or angry there. And again, this means his only actual impression of her, apart from "look at all this goddamn octopus hair", is negative, unless he's so overwhelmingly in love that overrides his judgement, which to be fair has happened in gundam before.
>>
>>12486040
>Sure it did it throughout but considering a shit ton of people just died you would think they wouldn't put an incredibly important asset in their economy at risk for a gag.
The people taht died were warmongers who had no disposition in the economy and who's deaths wouldn't drastically change things other than there would be more need to open up and negotiate rather than push for war.

>Probably wouldn't have cared so much had they not rushed so much and made the ending combat so unfulfilling all around.

Remember that you're watching not only the greatest anime ever created but the greatest fictional work ever.

Greco is flawless. Everyday when I get up I thank God for letting me live at a time where I can experience the greatest creation in human history. I am forever grateful to have witnessed the birth of something that will only truly be understood generations from now, like a modern Beethoven.

Greco is a masterpiece of subtelty and intricacy. Greco is a masterpiece of colorfulness and lightheartedness. These do not contradict each other because Greco is flawless.

Greco does not have a single flaw, because it is Greco and Greco is flawless. It is also a masterpiece.

And if you disagree, you're retarded.

G-Reco threads are 100% negative. What few positive things are said about the show are always wrapped up inside an insult to someone who didn't like the show. And these people who insult those who don't like what they do, and act like the merits of a cartoon's plot MUST be defended and percieved complaints must be argued and proven as if in a court of law...THESE obsessive people have the gall to call others "autists" for simply disregarding a cartoon they did not find entertaining.

Almost every single ardent fan of this show on this board that I have ever seen hardly acknowledges the show's rather glaring shortcomings, instead opting to insult people who have trouble understanding a show that was rushed by the creator's own admission because they don't 'get it' or because they're apparently too stupid.

Not to say that there haven't been some fairly stupid complaints, but there've been just as many genuine issues raised, and unless they're addressed by one of the very few people actually willing to take the time of day to respond calmly, they're all met with venom. Do you not understand why G-Reco's fanbase is seen as cancerous?

If you've ever been in one of the threads you must have realized that the answers often take some time to type up, and therefore quick trolling (aka the go back to A/Z nonsense) gets posted first.

Of course, some of the questions asked are either very obvious or easily understandable if you think about it or are even remotely familiar with general concepts in the science of space exploration (which clears up issues such as venus fish or spending a brilliant episode on transit between the moon and venus globe).
