Who's Go Nagai's spiritual successor?

>>13711513
me

>>13711513
I really can't think of one. Imaishi might be the closest, he did TTGL and KlK which are similar to Go nagai's robot stuff and cutie honey

Was actually just about to tell you its this guy op >>13711526

>>13711513
Anime and manga

>>13711533
Imaishi's more of an Ishikawa guy, though.

Ishikawa

>>13711633
Ishikawa was his assistant, not his successor. They weren't from different generations either.

>>13711599
Imaishi's a bit of both really. Among other influences.

Probably Anno.

>>13711714
Not a joke. Ishikawa could have been considered his successor if he was still alive.

>>13711705
Probably him, seems to be closer than Imaishi.

>>13711513
Jun Kawagoe

>>13711787
Has Kawagoe done any original work instead of just adaptions?

There really aren't any more groundbreaking things you can do with robots.

>>13712177
Cat-piloted robots.
Not anthro cats or catgirls,
just regular housecats.

Already done.

Robots that pilot robots that pilot even bigger robots.

>>13711513
Shoji Kawamori

>>13712177
What if we took today's popular thing in anime and then put mechs in the background and maybe have them fight if we have some budget left over!

This is giving me some Tekkaman vibes.

>>13712183
Robots controlled by trading card games

>>13712177
Robots that pilot giant humans.

Saikyo Ginga Ultimate did that. Then again, just about every card game show also features robot cards at some point, but SGU was full of the fuckers even outside of the summoning battles.

>>13712203
Attack on Robot Titan
Puella Magi Madoka Magical Robo

>>13711705
Anno is Miyazaki's.

>>13712303
Anno's defining work is most heavily inspired by Go Nagai.

>>13712288
Attack on Titan already plays like a mecha anime.

I'd say Evangelion did Madoka first, but at least Shinji got in the fucking robot.

Takayuki Yamaguchi, if only he'd do more stuff.

>>13712177
Robots piloted by Black women.

>>13712768
Jun Honoo though?

>>13712768
Already happened back in the 1970s. Next.

>>13712177
Robots piloted by Buddhist monks fighting demons representing human vices.

>>13712777
It's not funny anymore

>>13712779
It doesn't need to be funny, it just needs to be cool. There's all sorts of cool stuff you can do with Buddhism and Hinduism, I'm surprised it's so underused in anime.
