Is Byston Well one of the most unique and interesting settings in mecha?

Dunbine is certainly one of the best outputs in mecha at least. Plenty of colorful mecha with cool insect motifs along with a fairy tale-ish atmosphere. And Tomino's finest finale that perfectly wraps up the story with plenty of action.

It's unfortunate that none of the other entries in the setting have been well received because they look pretty cool.

I only watched Dunbine (loved it) and Garzey's Wing (awful). Honestly still need to watch the other two.

Here are some fun Tomino quotes I've pulled from several Wings of Rean DVD booklets:

"I don't find any joy in being asked to take something from the past and "do it again."

----
Tomino: "It might surprise you to hear this from someone like me, but I don't dwell on dialogue. I just bring in the necessary words to ultimately fit the visual pace and express the characters. I will not create a work in which you can understand the content of a movie by listening to the dialogue. Instead, there is a visual change, and if amid that Aesap's lines and Sakomizu's lines come in at the right spot, you don't need long lines of dialogue, and you end up with a cool closing line of dialogue instead."
----
Tomino: Speaking frankly, I never came to like the name Show. I don't like the sound of it, and yet I made a major mistake in making him the main character.

"I thought you named him him yourself"

I did. And I made him the main character anyway. I know why I did it, but I can't tell you even if you torture me. (laughs)

Pic related looks like a /m/etal rock cover. I'll get to this show after Xabungle.
>>14422171
Hear this all the time on Dunbine threads. Would that ruin the show for me at all?

>>14422171
While they were in Byston Well the plot moved as much as it does in most /m/ shows. It was only once they got to Earth that there was nothing left to do except fight to a draw every episode until the grand finale.
>>
>>14421776
Byston Well is like generic medieval europe with a couple of other races.
Sure there's an interesting place or race that appears once or twice, and the realm between the two world is neat but once again underused.
Even escaflowne has a more interesting fantasy world.

The mecha designs, colors, monsters designs and fairies all contribute to create a unique atmospheric mecha series.

Dunbine is so damn good

Goran-Goran and Ge Gehring are both pure fucking sex as well. Best ship designs ever in my opinion.

I actually liked the Upper Earth arc. All four massive battleships clashed, slowly making their way to each other to set up for the final battle. I suppose it could have been shorter, but I enjoyed it as it was. Throughout the arc, but especially the last 5-8 episodes, you can tell it won't be a 'happy' ending. Neither side has enough of an advantage to settle it quickly.

The best part about Dubine is that both Drake and Ciela are in the wrong. Aura machines are evil without exception; in Ciela's case it is a necessary evil but evil no less. The only difference between good and bad guys is that the good ones realize there can be no winner; all the machines and their operators have to be destroyed. The bad guys don't understand and are convinced on their own righteousness that they can come out alive.

It's something you don't see very often in any anime.

It also has one of the most shocking scenes I've seen in anime the mother shooting her own daughter blew my mind.

And mecha made from giant bug monsters.

The mecha design is cool in concept art >>14430562 but it looks like shit most of the time in the actual serie.
Monsters barely appear and fairies are cool but it's just not enough.
It started great and I wanted to like it, but most of the episodes are random air battle near a forest, mountain or ocean until the bad guys run away for some reason. Felt like the writters and animators were on automatic pilot.

Because those are designs for the TV series.
Those random battles that have no purpose is something every Tomino series has. I think they're at least pretty entertaining battles.

I like Tomino skirmishes and a lot of the soldiers in Dunbine have their own motivation
