At least Vers had some GOAT Kats. Other than Barbaratos, I only like Kimaris. Rest look like old rejected designs.

Not to mention there are few genuinely likeable characters in IBO. Ein is a Jerid, Choco is Graham with Char's worst traits. Most of the orphans are completely missable, What's-his-name's ex machina harem is forgettable.

Mika is a worse Inaho. If they're trying to do Setsuna they're doing a shit job of it.

The only three sympathetic characters in IBO are Gaelio (about to get inevitably Char'd), Atra and Biscuit. At least A/Z had a main Slaine, Saazbaum, Rayet's eps and Mazuurek with better visuals and soundtrack to boot.

Good moments in IBO were Biscuit's shitty brother and the weapons part, but they were good moments reminiscent of UC brilliance in an utter pile of slop. Felt completely apathetic over Fumitan and Biscuit's death.

Not to mention NotChar killing NotGarma for the 500th time. Oh boohoo, yellow haired guy screwing over purple haired guy for the 90 millionth time? Just Another Rehash complete with cyber newtype haxx.

Kudelia and Mika look literally retarded the way they're drawn. While the Graze customs look ok, the originals look like someone on Deviantart painted them in the most disgusting palette they could find and the design is generic. Gusion is also way too clunky, like an obese Zaku rehash, not that it even matters because the mecha is a side story. It makes Asseylum's fishface and Saazbaum's completely impractical mech look god tier.

Soundtrack is also inferior. 'Raise your Flag' was better than the current generic shit and at least Sawano knows what he's doing.

What a wasted potential. Well hopefully there isn't last minute cuckoldry, that'd be something.

That's more than A/Z which had one and then he gets killed off.

Mika actually has characterization and an actual explanation as to why he acts the way he does so he doesn't come off as autistic. Inaho has no characterization or development and we're given next to nothing of an explanation as to why he acts the way he does in show so he comes off as autistic.

>Mika actually has characterization and an actual explanation as to why he acts the way he does
No he doesn't. His characterisation is standing around listening to people and then once every 10 episodes he goes a little crazy for a minute and people start jacking off to him cause so dark and crazy. There isn't an explanation for the way he acts as he was crazy before being a soldier (heavily in contrast to the rest of the group) and a few of the characters are also street rats and not crazy

Mika is one of the worst and least interesting gundam protagonists
>>
>>14018405

Moron doesn't know what characterization is. Mika worse than Kira and Shin? Kek.
>>
>>14018380
>Mika actually has characterization and an actual explanation as to why he acts the way he does so he doesn't come off as autistic.

"Who should I kill next, Orga?" is basically the be all and end all of his characterisation. Not that Eggs Plisken is much better, owing to crucial development being sidelined into novels because they have to spread it out over different formats, but Mika wigging out on Orga a couple episodes back was the first proper bit of development on his end in fucking months except for maybe shaking Kudelia's hand because reincorporation, and that basically amounted to him asking Orga to kill people for the sake of revenge.

We're a week from the end of the show and we still don't know what the hell he and Orga were doing in that alleyway other than that they murdered some guy.

>Show blatantly shows that Mika is an animal through his actions and the way how he goes about his mission

He's already better than Inaho, maybe a tad too simple for an average Gundam protags but at least he isn't Kira or Kio.

Kira actually has an entire arc and reasoning he's acting that way. People need to remember that he doesn't trust ZAFT because they tried to kill his other waifu.

tldr; Lacus dying would've meant that everyone will be dead by Kira's hands.
>>
>>14018433
>Show blatantly shows that Mika is an animal through his actions
No it doesn't. Like a lot of points in the show you could give some examples but it is horribly inconsistent. One scene he is scampering across the floor smelling shoes and then another he gives a monologue about the economy. This could work if the show had any ability to write complex characters but really it is just that characters become whatever scenes need them to and then people just remember the bits they want to make points

STEAL characterization (indirect) =/= backstory (direct)

> Characterization
Characterization is the process by which the writer reveals the personality of a character. Characterization is revealed through direct characterization and indirect characterization. Direct Characterization tells the audience what the personality of the character is.

For IBO they're relying on STEAL rather than backstory. Steal is Speech, Thoughts, Effects, Actions and Looks.

>>14018482
Nothing. Thats the point. Direct characterization is basically showing instead of telling.
>>14018485
So you're saying that because the director isn't spoonfeeding you characterization like speed racer he's automatically some kind of kill-bot? Nigger please, the point of STEAL is that it's nuanced. You'd call it terrible story telling if the speed racered up his scenes like

"OOOOH! TAIHEN! THAT ENEMY IS GETTING TOO CLOSE TO ORGA, MY CHILDHOOD FRIEND WHO I TRUST AND RELY ON. BECAUSE OF MY TRAGIC PAST I AM COMPELLED TO TAKE THE MOST DIRECT ROUTE TO ENSURE HIS SAFETY, I DO NOT FEEL REGRET BECAUSE OF MY KILL OR BE KILLED SLUMS UPBRINGING WHERE I HAD TO KILL A MAN AS SEEN IN THE CREDITS OF THE SECOND OPENING OF THE SERIES WE ARE IN AND ALL OF TH CUTAWAYS YOU AS THE AUDIENCE HAS BEEN EXPOSED TO RECENTLY. HIYYAAAHHHHH!"

If you don't like the series, fine, but dont shit pick and ruin it for others simply because the director hasn't strapped you into a highchair and made airplane noises with spoonfuls of indirect characterization to feed you the storyline.

>nuanced

Oh, please, dude, there's a lot of things in the vast realm of fiction that can be called nuanced, Mika is not one of those things. IBO is not one of those things. Are you attaching nuance to a show that, among other things, had its female lead do nothing but waffle back forth for 85 percent of its run regurgitating the same old shit, even after she resolved not to do it?

And yes, Mika is an near-emotionless kill-bot because that's basically all the show has shown him to be capable of. It feels like he hasn't developed at all and that he's still the same character we've seen in the first episode in that his defining characteristics are he likes his friends, he really likes Orga, and he really, really likes killing people, but now he also shook Kudelia's hand.

I mean, depending, static characters can be done well, but this is the guy who was basically advertised as the MC, or one of them. I mean, it's been ages since I last saw Wing, but with 00 you at least saw what happened to make Setsuna so fucked up and how he coped with it and eventually became a better person - you know, character development. Mika's just been a half-mute attack dog.

On the point of Setsuna, there was this really nice scene early on in 00 where he is just sitting in a normal park but then it turns to a war zone cause that's what he sees/feels. It is kinda like that one bit in Terminator 2. It is a good simple way to show us his mind without saying anything, in 24 episodes I don't feel like I have once seen into Mika's mind or been on the same wavelength as him

>>14018533
ok, ill try one more time.

How is Mika supposed to develop as a character when he's doing the same thing he's always done?

He's always been a murderer
He's always been a very solitary person
He's always used the alliance vagina system
He's always taken his cues from orga
He's always eaten snacks that seem to be random shit he picks up odd the ground.
He's always been proficient in the use of mobile workers, we're shown this as he has the most spines in his alliance vagina system so at some point they must have decided he has the most potential to have had the operation 3 times, so he gets the most use out of it.

etc. The only wildcard in his routines are:
- The gundam
- The girl (his very own relena peacecraft)
- The new family business
- His new friends dying

and wew lad, funny enough, these are the only plot points he's shown character progression on, and we can see that through STEAL. now are you going to have me spoonfeed you those progression points or are you going to use your head?
>>

Yes, he has the Gundam. Yes, he has the girl. Yes, people he knows have died, to which he has reacted with either indifference or sadistic goading towards Orga. How do they change the fact that he's barely changed?

Use your words, you're sat in front of a keyboard as is.

This whole debacle right now is a result of Mika's defining character flaw, is that all he knows is violence and he will attack anyone who fucks up his friends.

Mika been inroduced into not using violence. He's legit amazed that Kudaleia was able to stop a fleet by talking. He's being introduced to these ideas, but he's still sticking with the stuff he's always known. Makes sense, since he wouldn't instantly change.

Also "Taken cues from orga." That's not fucking true. two episodes ago he was basically demanding Orga to keep going. While he was asking "where should we go" the subtext is, we're not fucking stopping. He also didn't tell orga all of what biscuit said. Orga was terrified of Mika at that point. I say, it's Mika calling the shots at this point. And given Mika's tunnel vision, it's time for payback for all of gjallhorn.

Now all of Tekka is fucked because of Mika's tunnel vision. I'm guessing there's going to be a second season, in which he'll have to take a different path.

I like IBO a lot, but I can see why people don't. but I think /m/ just shits on it way to much.

Even Rectards have a hard time defending Aida.

IBO, on the other hand, sacrificed it's plot for it's generic as fuck characters.

Aida is naturally flawed in the kind of way that impressive credentials can land an unqualified person in situations way over her head, but she nevertheless tries to make the most of things consistently and never stops evolving and improving throughout her series.

Its episode 24 and Kudelia confronts a death machine with a face to face greeting.

There's also him thanking Lockon gor calling him a Gundam nut. There was a lot of subtle humility in Setsuna throughout 00 that makes his characterization bettee than other stoic Gundam leads like Heero and Mika though in case of the latter his lack of humility seems to be point.

Bullshit.
like ten episodes ago, Orga specifically said" I have to do this crazy shit for Mika because he looks up to me:

Also episode 22. look the entire fucking conversaion in episode 22. orga is specifically saying,
"I killed biscuit due to me doing dangerous shit"
"what should I do orga"
"give me a break Mika..."
"no orga. we can''t stop yet."
"wait..."
and he goes on to say " I decided on that day, we will find that place"

He says this while grabbing him by his fucking collar and orga looks like he's going to shit his pants.

Yeah, this is the actions of a man who just follows orders. Their relationship is more complicated than /m/ admits. its mutually destructive and that's neat.
>>
>>14018694
That's what is interesting about Setsuna, he actually has a different thought pattern than most which we saw consistently come out and inform his action. Mika just lacks much of one so he seems mysterious and then just fits whatever the script needs him to be

Mika and the rest suffer because the show has focused on developing Kudelia as an MC more than any of the orphans, even that isn't the way it should have done it at all.
In AZ Slaine eventually got the most development while everyone else stayed more or less static but compared to him Kudelia just terrible and can't hold the audience's attention unless she's showing off her tits. I don't even like Slaine but if you're gonna have a character be a blackhole of development/screentime at least make it something the audience can give a fuck about.

And the character designs are awful and very inconsistent compared to AZ, I agree. Even if she isn't as voluptuous I find Asseylum more attractive than Kudelia. And the Counts like Saazbaum etc had refreshing designs and weren't just generic bishounen or forgettable balding old men.

Because he was the main character. ALDNOAH ZERO was in reference to him.

And this is just bullshit given the copious amounts of sameface and babyfaces had not to mention how it heavily clashed in tone of the show much like Hirai in SEED.

Attention citizens of the universe. I Kudelia am proud to be elected your new Universal President through hostile takeover.

On my path to winning this election I learned many things from many important people. Such as people die when they are killed, when people are dead they are no longer alive and the most important thing everyone else in the universe that are not me are completely expendable pawns that should be willing to die for my success.

But I still have some growing up to do as your new president. I need to learn how to better equip our child soldiers so they can die for me more efficiently and I need to learn how to finally cut up vegetables into an acceptable size for stew.

Reposting my question since /a/ ignored it

Where the heck are all the people who aren't politicians and military? Like, there are people fighting to death near the city and literally no one seems to be bothered by that fact

The city seemed to be under some sort of lockdown. They were probably inside. You know, they wouldn't want to be killed.

G-Reco was the best anime since Aldnoah.Zero though. Just like Aldnoah Zero was the best show since 00.

More like when /m/ claims that Kira is better than anyone you know you've walked right into a troll/underage thread

/m/ has such shit opinions when it comes to fiction. If it's not relatable it's shit writing,if it's unrealistic it's a plothole, if it's too simple it's 2deep,if it's legitimately 2deep it's too simple.

This Episode, this Episode right here was just too Hype. I think its the first my expectations has been been blown away. Incredible Episode i hope this Show gets a Second Season.

The guys that disliked this episode are hatewatchers to begin with.

To me it feels like IBO just delivered on a lot of promises.
Now if they can just stick the landing, this will have been a very enjoyable show.

>>14020385
/m/ isn't one person. Try asking /m/ to name a good series. Protip: You can't because the second anything with a semi-popular name comes up, the thread is over. Even legitimately good series (flawed, don't get me wrong but still worth a watch) are shit on to oblivion because people think that their favorite work is perfect and anything that doesn't conform to that is shit. People don't understand the difference between opinion and quality. Quality exists objectively, and if a story is told badly then it's a bad story. But that doesn't mean you can't enjoy it. It also doesn't mean that your opinion makes the story good. The IBOfags here aren't spamming and shitposting that the show is good, they just post every once in a while that they like it, despite everything.

In the end /m/ hypocritically nitpicks children's cartoons from a literary perspective and reacts autistically when their favorite show is nitpicked in a way they haven't recognized themselves, leading to shitposting and countershitposting (see Zeta threads for details)

>>14020473
>IBOfags aren't defending their shit show
I stand corrected.
>>14020459
It delivered on this shit over half a series too late.

well... at least my favorite turbines girl Eco is still alive.

I can't name a single time McGillis got in Gaelio's way. Apart from Chocochar telling Gali stop stop fighting in their first fight but thats just looking out for you comrade

>>14020597
Chocoman also got in his way for Carta

that was 7 stars and government intervention not mcgillis.

why didn't blonde boy who has the crush on Shino not freak out when Ein pulverized him?

is Azee dead?

Yes she and Lafter are dead, Shino is alive

I like Graze-Ein but I also hate him for killing my fap material

well I don't think Azee is dead, she got bopped in the head, but Lafter....she ain't piloting for a while if she survived.

The official sites usually won't update the character relationship chart for the final 2 climatic episodes. I didn't think Code Geass did.

I was surprise too but not by his identity. The fact he appeared there to directly confront Gali-gali was kind of surprising.

Ah the stages of grief, accept that Ein paid back the lives of Carta and her bodyguards when Mika slaughtered them already.
>>

She's a shit pilot but still managed to make everyone else get shit done, you faglord.

It's like the Shrike team all over again (until they all died).

I liked Azee for being the reserved and cool type of character but I hate how she had very little screen time to expand on her character and now they seemingly killed her off? Seems pretty unnecessary if they are trying for more tragic drama.
>>
>>14021839
Likewise. I was legit pissed when she got her head smashed in like that. Fuck Ein, that psycho little bitch needs to get wrecked soon.
>>
>>14021745
I didn't even know Lafter had a lookalike blondie twin until they arrived on Earth.

Ein is the good guy.

He even has the Giga Drill Breaker! Only good guys can have that!

>>14022028
It's not fair...

She was best girl.
>>
Finally got around to watching the last two episodes. How did they go from Shit Central to these? They were actually good. Psycho Ein was actually pretty damn cool, even if everyone jobbed really hard to him. Ein himself reached a nice point on the crazy spectrum. The story finally acknowledged that child soldiers are kind of fucked up, and that Mika is a demon. The fights weren't shit, even if it was mostly curbstomping. Mobile Workers had screen time, not just "lol they're in ur ship, killin ur dudes". McGillis was shown to be the one influencing quite a few things behind the scenes, and will finally have a real mobile suit battle. There was some tension for once.

It felt like Gundam again.

The question is, why the hell did it take this long? How did they drop the ball all the way through the space episodes, even the last one or two Mars episodes? What the hell were they thinking? As a result of all that wasted time, the payoff isn't totally complete. Eins only became relevant again just recently but now he's the Mobile Armor. Gay-lio's crying over Carta didn't feel bad because she was kind of a shit character. The contradiction between how Tekkadan was portrayed as having just cause before but only NOW they're bad. Mika and Orga's relationship was way too normal (and that's counting the few times they actually appeared on screen) for about 20 episodes.

So much wasted time, and for what?
