kids were a mistake,
they're nothing but trash
You can't battle gunpla.
In real life that is.
Heybot will save /m/echa for kids. Only 5 weeks before it start airing.
Hoping it will get subs.
Japanese kids are the worst thing to ever happen to Japanese kids shows
they're terrible appearing in them
they have terrible taste in them
Japanese kids shows would be so much better without Japanese kids.

You're not wrong.
>>14611156
Let's not forget there's a new Time Bokan coming, too.

>Hoping it will get subs.
Would anyone actually bother to sub that?
There was a thread about why Japan liked giant robots so much and someone mentioned a book written on Japan that claimed it was a direct result of the reconstruction of Japan after the war and the need for a national identity after being colonized by the US. Maybe modern kids deal with their identitty in a diferent way, not with dreaming with a huge metal body but collectable toys. Isn't that what consumism is about?
>>14615127
That's assuming there isn't too much wordplay to trip people over similarly to shows like Bobobo-Bo Bo-Bobo (which HnG is still subbing to this day), so it needs a really good TLC person.
>>14615173
>collectable toys
>which may or may not be disposable
The implications of this aren't looking too good.

Sunday morning shows usually has closed captions so I think translating isn't the hardest part.
Having a group willing to sub a show is the hardest part especially for children shows. I'm still waiting a group to sub Kamiwaza Wanda although it's most likely will never happen.

Why would you want to live in the alternate timeline where the world continually keeps topping itself in how much it can go to shit?
Hell the Battle Network timeline is practically a utopia in comparison.

I thought that's where we are now.
The Robot Masters are going to be brought to heel, and it's gonna be great!

>see-through skirt
Why does the main girl dress like a whore?
Well, like, the extreme nothingness that is the mecha genre catering toward children that has been dried up since the 00s should have been enough of a clue of that
>>14615127
>Would anyone actually bother to sub that?
Crunchryroll tends to sub really obscure shit so that would be your best chance
>>14618606
The Time Bokan series is always lewd, so I guess it's to balance out the female villain usually dressing like one.
>>14618614
It took two groups for Yokai Watch to actually get subs, so them subbing anything isn't always a guarantee.
>>14618153
If everything could log into the Internet, you'd have even less people paying attention to their surroundings.

Where the fuck is my qt porn-fetching AI waifu?

why would you need subbing for YW?
I mean I don't think it's as bad as how TPCi treats the localization right?
>>14614668
>>14611156
Fisher Price type designs
Western shows have picked up that kids don't want to be treated like babies, why is Japan lagging so far behind?
>>14620564
Because only the otaku seem to care about intricate designs.
>>14620564
The Time Bokan stuff looks decent
>>14617912
>tfw we are living in the latter
Then where's my fucking netnavi
>>14620564
Kids should enjoy their childhood before most of them ended up as NEETs in Japan.
>>14620564
>Western shows have picked up that kids don't want to be treated like babies
Which ones?
>>14622489
What show is the girl with black hair and red frame glasses from?
>>14622489
Atty Lmao
>>14622502
Gyrozetter, don't watch it for her unless you're okay with a character that does fuckall
>>14622551
Hmmm. Thanks. It's an older show? From 2012, it looks like?
>>14622489
In fairness, Gyrozetter's director has been in the biz since the 90s, and he usually puts in lewd stuff regardless of context.
>>14622502
All the pics are from gyrozetter
>>14622617
Cool. Too bad it looks like the early episodes are dead. At least on Nyaa torrents.
>>14622642

I love how /m/ regularly gets mad at jap kids.
Like that time a grandpa made a badass Zeta sculpture, and his grandkid didn't care.
>>14622502
Gyrozetter, and it basically flopped pretty hard
>>14622568
2012~2013, I believe the subs for the series are finally finished recently
>>14622671
I mean, we have every right to. They're killing our hobby. Probably even the ones who do like mecha are going to be killing our hobby.
I mean think about it; a lot of the greatest shows were directed by guys who said they were inspired by the classics they grew up with. What are we gonna get from the directors that grew up with A/Z, Cross Ange, VVV and so on?
>>14622646
Thanks dork.... ly.
You're an okay sort.
>>14622684
>flopped pretty hard
Did it flop because it was bad, or just because Jap kids don't like mecha anymore?
I'm still gonna download the first three episodes and give it a chance, at the very least. I might like it.
>>14622721
From what I can tell, it flopped because it had no idea what it wanted to be. It had a card game, racing, and robots. Kids might be able to connect with two of those at the same time, but merchandising three concepts at once is overdoing it and probably confusing for the kids
>>14622733
Children are indeed a mistake.
>>14622721
For these kind of shows, it's all about the merchandising. The ratings barely matters.
For example I heard the arcade game flopped pretty hard despite a lot of efforts put into it.
The shows looks fun but it has CG mecha. A big no for me.
