He was perpetually being shafted during the entire show.

A lot of his development was off-screen and like the rest of the cast his personal plot line was largely unresolved.

I did like his plans though. Hitting the munitions transport and firing around the planet weren't bad especially compared to the rest of the fight scenes.

Overall not a good character, was too caught up in the peace princess to be interesting and the show was too shallow to have any real judgement of his actions

>>14851853
Even his deepest feelings were ambiguous. The show was amazingly spineless.

The next she does is marry some guy who she doesn't know and the next thing he does is fall for his nemesis.

I found it unintentionally mildly funny.

Slaine just felt like a character that came from a different show, it felt as though his character would have succeeded if he had been allowed to develop. However, looking back if he did develop then the story wouldn't have been able to end where it did and he would probably outshine the other two MC more than he already does.

Slaine actually did seems more like a princess than the actual princesses. Though Slaine's character is normal for any other mecha anime.

Honestly if A/Z ever made it into Super Robot Wars it feels as though they'd end the series at episode 7.

When they are female. Fundamentally speaking, Slaine is a deeply flawed version of these characters >>14852310
>>
>>14857158
With that pic did you think that I was speaking of Slaine as a male character?

Hell even when comparing him to >>14852310 it's not quite right since in his case it wasn't really Slaine being somehow incompetent or lacking on his own, it's literally plot devices being used to make sure that he fails even when he's doing the right thing. The story also goes out of its way to prevent him from moving on.

That's why I said that if A/Z was ever in SRW the story would end at episode 7.

The same was true for the resolution, hell they easily could have had Lemrina contest Asshime's claim to the throne. Even with Asshime being against him he still could have fought. Hell, anyone who knows even just a little bit about Vers or just paid attention to current events could know that Asshime's lying between her teeth.

It felt like that part of Gundam Wing where Relena rebuilt the Sanq Kingdom only to see it fall.
>>
>>14862578
The entire conflict was built on a house of Cards as it relied on people not seeing Slaine's plane helping Inaho, and also not questioning how he beat that count. Anyone seeing the battle or questioning Inaho would have lead to the war ending in episode 8.

Not at all, Shinn's deal was completely different from everyone else. His problem was the fact that he wouldn't think for himself or take other perspectives into account. Suzaku deal was that he was painfully naive and overly idealistic and trusting of the wrong people. Subete was lied to since he was a child and legitimately didn't know any better. Mitsuhide was loyal to the MC and actually did help out his liege it's just that he was ultimately more important than his liege, Bizon was just delusional, and I don't know who Ridhe is but judging from the previous examples I'm going to assume that he's got very little in common with them.

The only thing these characters really have in common is that they're all bishounen and are hated by by viewers, some deserved and some not.

If there's a character on that list that I'd have to say that Slaine is like it's Shinn and that's only because it's literally the same circumstances in that it's a result of bad writing caused by the story wanting to force drama and suck the cock of the resident Gary Stu, self insert.

The fact you easily fix it in a similar fashion as pointed out here >>14864438 and hell even if you include season 2 it's the same thing deal. Have someone else who isn't an autist like Inaho talk to Slaine and Asshime then problem solved.

I started watching Gundam a little around when A/Z came out, and finished around when IBO came out (all series except AGE), so while it was disappointing, it still has a weird special place in my heart.

Anon how could you forget?
>>
>>14865622
Oh him, he's actually the opposite of Slaine though. Slaine was the person who originally believed that humans and Martians could achieve peace and wanted to change the world because of it. Hell Asshime it's not even similar for the reason that Asshime doesn't even give a shit about Inaho after she remembers him.
>>
>>14865516
>>The only thing these characters really have in common is that they're all bishounen and are hated by by viewers, some deserved and some not.
And even this is wrong since Slaine is the most popular character in A/Z
>>
>>14865680
Amongst Nips, and even then mostly among female viewers, male otaku liked Inaho, because he's the typical A-1 pictures self-insert Gary Stu, and many Western viewers weren't fond of Slaine either.
>>
>>14864419
Sure, they could have had S3 be the civil war in vers between the mix breed princess and terran upstart who has been deceiving them vs the naive pure breed princess and pure breed Cruhteo Jr and the earth faction. But since Slaine is a pussy who was only diong it for muh hime and didn't want to go against her we aren't. And also the show was shit, S2 sold way less than S1 and aniplex just wanted it over and done with.

>>14864438
That's bad writing, but I would not say Inaho's decision in episode 8 is the basis of all the conflict in the show. I think that's giving a bit too much credit to him and his plot relevance.

Nope even they hated him or at least were indifferent to him to the point where they forgot he existed. A given how what was left of this fanbse was nothing but fangirls distinguishing the two feels pointless, so all the fangirls liked Slaine and only two or three otakus liked the retard what a deadlocked contest.
>>
>>14865899
>Amongst Nips,
i.e. the people who are relevant and bought all the merch to support this shitshow not the retards who illegally watch it online and complain about it on forums and imageboards. Even amongst the western community he's the only character anyone ever fucking talks about which just shows how much everyone cared about the rest of the cast. At least with Code Geass and to a lesser extent GSD you had a fanboy for every character discussing their role but this shit? Unless you were just hatewatching or hoping your waifu would get a few lines in an episode there was no other character to talk about.

Nope. In Animage polls Slaine was ranked higher in every polls. Also had more character specific merchandise and apparently the last sound drama is about wanking him off.
>>14866294
>>14866299
I do remember Eggs being ranked higher in newtype polls but...like for one month before dropping all together. Needless to say I think Aniplex put more money towards Animage to promote A/Z and if I recall their was a poll to see which characters would get the next spread....and the winners were neither Inahao, Slaine and Assihime but Raylet and Inaho's bland friend.

Actually it is, if Inaho had allowed Slaine to meet Asshime, as Slaine could have told her that using the public channels to contact Vers was useless, becuase he already tried to do that. Thus they wouldn't go to Russia and put the civilians lives at risk. Even better when you consider that Cruhteo was chasing after Slaine and if Cruhteo comes across him on Duecalion with Asshime then it's even better, because he'd realize immediately not to trust Saazbaum, and would contact the other loyalists to get Asshime back to Vers.

Inaho's decision not to allow Slaine and Asshime to meet just extended the war.
>>
>>14866179
I'm not denying the show was shit, it was, just that Slaine was fucked over by the story not allowing him to move forward. And of course S2 sold less than S1, S2 dropped the ball the moment they revealed that Inaho lived.
>>
>>14866243
They liked Asshime to the extent that they could use either her or Inaho to self insert, but once they realized that 1) Inaho autistic as all fuck and 2)was a cuck in the series the only time they found him amusing was in the AU verse when he wanted to get into Slaine's pants.

Asshime meanwhile was popular amongst for being the peace princess until Nips realized that she was an naive, ignorant, and lacking in the ability to connect with or understand others.

During the series it was a different story though. Nips especially after S1 loved Asshime and Inaho, it was only S2 that saw them begin to hate Asshime and lose interest in Inaho.
>>
>>14866204
That was more among westerners, Nip otaku didn't like Slaine, and were either neutral towards Inaho or self-inserted as him.
>>
>>14866468
>That was more among westerners,
Nope. Here's how character popularity went with this show

>Slaine
>Cruthleo
>Asshime
<gap>
>Inaho

This fanbase was largely fujoshi base and Otaku only ever cared about the shitty princess and even then that was nowhere near to the amount of fujoshis that clung to this shit so even if there was a hatebase for him it was a very small minority.
>>14866389

>>14866308

You've never been on those boards it seems. He had the most full character threads and they were the most pissed about his fate. Irony enough Inaho and Asshime had more hate threads than him. Really its only a vocal minority of westerners that hate itmostly because they self-inserted as Inaho for whatever reason.
>>
>>14866514
>>Slaine
>>Cruthleo
>>Asshime
><gap>
>>Inaho
That's not even how it went amongst Westerners. Asshime was very popular until her popularity fell in the last episodes because of her bullshit, in fact SlainxAsshime was the most popular pairing. Inaho was popular to have his own best selling Christmas cakes, which sold an equal amount as the Slaine cakes. Cruhteo's following was always very small. Fujos didn't really latch onto the series until the AUs were released.

What does this have to do with Westners and you're wring btw.
>Cruhteo's following was always very small. Fujos didn't really latch onto the series until the AUs were released.
And this is both bullshit. Considering how much twitter was flooded with fanart of him on his birthday and everything in regards to him torturing Slaine made him an instant favorite hence why they created his Cruthleo Jr.

NOTE: Westerners = AnimeSuki + reddit, because MAL hates Slaine and slainefags
>>
>>14866514
Slaine also had a lot of hate threads during the time series aired, especially after the end of S1, which caused Inaho to become very popular. After the series ended however otaku did feel sorry for him as they like most people with half a brain felt that there were gaping holes in the plot. There was also the fact that in hindsight the Slaine suffering was stupid as it didn't matter what he did he was just destined to be fucked over.

Hell at the time the series ended it wasn't uncommon to run across Nip fanfic or doujins on pixiv that pointed this out, and that backlash is the reason why 24.5 or whatever it's called was released.

This is like the time people kept claiming that Mikono was hated in Japan and then you actually see that its the opposite in which they couldn't be arsed to shit on her because they didn't even care. Why do Americunts think Nips waste their time discussing on a character they hate? At no point in the show was Inaho popular and most of the shit people hated Slaine for in the West didn't even get brought up in Japan. Most ofthe fanbase just wanted to fuck him .
>>
>>14866703
>Why do Americunts think Nips waste their time discussing on a character they hate?
Because Americunts are self-entitled and want to make it clear that they hate a character for arbitrary reasons. It was interesting to see how much different discussions of this show went on both sides, you didn't see much of hate or worship for characters because the only character that got anything worth discussion was Slaine.

I don't like Inaho but pic related actually was in the top 5 sales when it was released. Inaho gained some popularity after the end of the first cour which saw a release of a lot of InahoxAsshime fanart on twitter and pixiv, because Nips liked the idea of the whole tragic romance bullshit. In fact he actually placed on Newtype for more than one month while Slaine never placed until the series actually ended.

Wrong on both accounts dumbfuck. Newtype caters to ad space not male otaku hence why they're not representative of anything let alone popularity unless you're shilling your product. The very notion that some edgy lesbian from a failed yuri action show was ranked in the top female character poll for almost year proves that the rankings are a joke.
>>
>>14866990
>Yeah he just had a metric ton of merchandise and top Animage polls
Because believe it or not he was more popular amongst otaku who also weren't interested in Inaho himself, meanwhile the female contingent actually were willing to purchase items with Slaine's face on it. Though the same was also true for Inaho, see >>14866885 and the actual ranking it got at the end. Saying that nobody liked Inaho or he never had any fans is blatantly false and laughably wrong.

>Newtype caters to ad space not male otaku hence why they're not representative of anything let alone popularity unless you're shilling your product.
So you're going to argue that Sword Art Online, Psycho Pass, Idolm@aster, and Fate series isn't popular amongst Nips?

Hilariously enough Animage and Animedia are more geared towards otaku than Newtype is nowadays and actually has a more steady rotation than Newtype which has the same characters for years.

So Free isn't popular now? Also most of the Frees have been taken over by Osomatsu

Newtype is to whoever pays the most money to see: The Newtype Award

Cross Ange actually outsold Tokyo Ghoul, Fate/Kaleid liner Prisma Illya 2wei!, and Gundam Build Fighters amongst other titles.

Very cute anon very cute but even Nips don't take Newtype polls seriously anymore once they became Aniplex's promotion gallery. Newtype polls are meaningless considering who else ranks there (do you think that Akuma no Riddle protagonist is a popular female character for real? She also placed high there consistently, including number one for longer than Inaho appeared in two months only). Unless you have another source that Inaho is more popular than Slaine (hard proof like bonuses, sold out merch before Slaine's, more than one poll, magazines requesting him after the trial period passed). Inaho VA consistently stated Slaine's the more popular character, if you're not going to believe Hanae, who else would you believe? The first cour was said it was to be a success according to Gen Urobuchi in a recent interview, so the staff is disagreeing with you? It surpassed their expectations somehow.

What terrible logic and you're wrong btw because it got an anime in order to promote a game which was then cancelled due to the unpopularity of the whole thing.

You are seriously trying way to hard to pretend to know what you're talking about. It being an original work or not is irrelavnt fuck Fate and SAO are frequenlty on top of the polls and they're not original properties either. Bottom line the anime was a huge flop.

It is true, Slaine was generally more popular, however to say that Inaho never had any fans at all is blatantly false. Literally no one is saying that Inaho was more popular than Slaine, only that Inaho was more popular in a certain niche crowd. Again reading comprehension you lack it.

Never said it wasn't though.

>Which was never hugely popular in Japan

But it's still Gundam Need I remind you that most mecha series don't get close to Gundam's sales. It still has brand recognition so people will watch it regardless of whether or not they actually buy it.
>You are seriously trying way to hard to pretend to know what you're talking about.
Simply this, anime adaptations are not good indicators of the adaptation's actual popularity. Case in point >>14867100
Akatsuki no Yona, Assassination Classroom, Kamisama no Hajmemasthita and Akatsuki no Yona's adaptations all had lukewarm to bad reception and yet they still made polls because their original work is popular not it's adaptation. Both SAO and Fate's anime are popular in their own right, the fact that they also belong to preexisting franchises probably helps. Case in point HunterxHunter 2011.
>Second season was already ploanned
Which can also be canceled, and anyway goes right back to my point on adaptations.

Don't knock on Haruto.

Sure he has self loathing issues (and for good reason considering his abysmal luck) but he's also one of the nicest guys in mecha anime, and that's while having no qualms blowing up the enemy.

I dunno why people would want to RP him though. Unless they want to be some sort of bottom bitch space vamp. Because let's face it he's kinda a bottom bitch.

They usually give LN anime to increase sales of the source of material. Rail Wars wasn't selling well before the anime and it didn't increase sales of the LN either. Your backwards logic is starting to back fire on you.

> Also are you going to make the argument that the stage show remake was also a part of the original idea?
Stage shows are incredibly cheap productions in order to add what little revenue to make a profit. Given that the show failed on BD/DVD and merchandise its no surprise that it came about and given that there was no second show after the first like Tokyo Ghoul or Ao no Exorcist it means that it was a failure as well.
>But has its own following.
Which doesn't make it popular
>But it's still Gundam
And as we've shown many times being a Gundam anime doesn't stop you from being a failure and your persistent stupidity won't negate the fact that AGE was hated by a large portion of the fanbase and did terribly in ratings and sales but since it ranked on Newtype that means it was popular. I think you need to give up now.
>anime adaptations are not good indicators of the adaptation's actual popularity.
All the more reason why they shouldn't be ranked. Funny enough all those shows you listed were never ranked on Newtype but were on Animage and Animedia.
>Which can also be canceled
That's never happened. Anime production is too tightly lipped that any change in a schedule would put shit out of wack and make people lose a lot of money. If the second season was announced after the first it means that they've already started production on it

Correction anon, they usually give LN anime to increase sales of LN that already have somewhat of a following. Otherwise it's just pointless to even push it. If it's LN is doing as badly as you keep insisting then the LN publisher would have canceled it already instead of allowing it to continue.
>...it opened in last place and earned 400k. That's pathetic but its hilarious to see you try to spin this as something positive. Keep it up.
Actually it was 10th place on it's opening weekend, keep in mind that they were actually more movies that were playing at the time. But then again you're hilariously bad at logic.
>Stage shows are incredibly cheap productions in order to add what little revenue to make a profit.
Which they don't give to shows of franchises that don't have a following. If it doesn't have a following then it's pointless to have a stage show to begin with. Also you're wrong, yet again, the Stage show did get a DVD release, it just wasn't pirated fun fact most stage shows don't get pirated http://negaonlineshop.com/?pid=93379478. The more you talk the more obvious it becomes that you don't know what you're talking about.
>Which doesn't make it popular
If it has enough of a following to justify them making a new entry and a stage show well after the fact, it may not be uber popular but it does have a cult following. But then again considering that you considered Cross Ange who sold an average of 5,000K per volume to be a failure I guess that says a lot about just how skewed your perspective of popularity is.
>And as we've shown many times being a Gundam anime doesn't stop you from being a failure

Not really, it only takes about 3 months to do a single episode, also Xros Wars proves the contrary.

>Correction anon, they usually give LN anime to increase sales of LN that already have somewhat of a following. Otherwise it's just pointless to even push it
Re:Zero had shitty sales before the anime came as did Konosuba, Durarara, etc. They make adaptations based on potential not necessary on how well they sold before because there's correlation between a high selling LN getting an equally high selling anime or a low selling LN getting a low selling anime. If anime adaptation was mainly based on sales than a lot of shit would not be animated because almost all of them don't even reach the top 50.
>Actually it was 10th place on it's opening weekend
Yeah...10th place in the top 10. Last place. That ain't good no matter how you fail to twist it.
>Which they don't give to shows of franchises that don't have a following
So where's the Rail Wars stage play? Where's the Chiaka stage play? According to you these shows are popular and have following because they were made regardless of their returns

Hey retard you may want to READ what I post. Most stage shows get DVD releases I said this show didn't get another one like Tokyo Ghoul which was actually popular and sold out several times. But hey dumbass logic dictates that Blodd-C getting one in the first place means it was popular because that's all you really have to stand.

You are wrong. And as stated previously stage plays are cheap productions in order to squeeze extra profit and from what it shows it didn't do well either. Companies do this shit all the time, very reason why we kept getting AGE merch after it was long apparent that the show wasn't doing well or why we get anime theme panchiko slots to make up of the profits loss not because its popular.

>But then again considering that you considered Cross Ange who sold an average of 5,000K per volume to be a failure I guess that says a lot about just how skewed your perspective of popularity is.
Means nothing coming frm a retard that says Blood-C is popular so I can can say Cross Ange is a failure and there's nothing you can do to prove me wrong
>The point goes right over your head doesn't it?
You had a point? You pretty much lost the moment you tried saying that AGE was anything but a failure
>Not really, it only takes about 3 months to do a single episode,
You really dont know what you're talking about.
>Xros Wars
Wasn't cancelled. Try again

>>14868590
>Gakuen Senki Muryou
Wasn't cancelled.
>Kämpfer für die Liebe- aired one episode and then got canceled
Was a special not a new season
>Zombie Loan
Wasn't cancelled

So the only example you had right was Gundam X which 20 YEARS AGO and you also neglected to mention recent examples like Brave Beats which was canned after 22 episodes and Manaria Friends which was pulled before it aired. So yeah very fucking rarely do anime get cancelled and Brave Beats is the best example of what comes about when it does get canceled because Unicorn RE 0096 was nothing but a recut of the OVA for television with nothing new.

Hey look I found one of those newshits who praised A/Z

And in X's case, the original timeslot itself was cancelled for anime. So, they could move it (and later cancel it) because they weren't going to be airing anime there afterwards.

That wasn't praise, although he probably is a newfag because he doesn't have an obnoxiously strong opinion.

Hey retarded slainefag shitposter, when will you stop posting their copypastas from AnimeSuki posts? are you retarded?
Her shit posts are copypastas from AnimeSuki posts, but specifically from three animesuki users (if you have any doubts, just check the A/Z threads on AnimeSuki).

>Hey retarded slainefag shitposter
I don't know why you think he is a Slainefag. You just grab the most retarded post that seems a bit genuine and dump it.

anons love shitting on stupid posts its the smart ones that get ignored.

>are you retarded?
No, its actually a great idea I did this on /a/ a few times and it was great. Minimal effort trolling.

It doesn't look like all the ones you quoted were from there.

>Her shit posts are copypastas from AnimeSuki posts, but specifically from three animesuki users
>Her?
It makes sense to dump from a few users as you try to pick the ones who get really excited and give a text dump.

I'll give him a 5/10 on his choices though.

>Wasn't cancelled.
Would saying it got cut short be a better description.
>Was a special not a new season
Kampfer was actually intendend to be another season, but was then was just re-released as an OVA.
>Wasn't canceled
It seems like it was the last two episodes weren't released on TV with no word from the tv station as to why the two episodes were cut.

>Means nothing coming frm a retard that says Blood-C is popular so I can can say Cross Ange is a failure and there's nothing you can do to prove me wrong
It's popular enough to have a cult following, also again the fact that you're claiming a show with average sales is a failure shows just how skewed your idea of popularity is.
>You had a point? You pretty much lost the moment you tried saying that AGE was anything but a failure
My point is that it's Gundam, yes AGE was a failure but it's still Gundam, it still has notoriety because of that people watched it, they may not have liked it but they still watched it. As evidenced from the fact that it actually has doujins.
>You really don't know what you're talking about.
3-4 months on average give or take to produce an anime beyond the point which it will actually have assets.
>Wasn't cancelled. Try again
I'm using Xros Wars as an example of the fact that things aren't as stringent as you're making them out to be. Xros Wars was extended last minute, despite it's shit sales and all around abysmal tv ratings that only dropped the longer the series stayed on air.

>RE:Zero
Is an exception not a rule.
>Konosuba
Had both a manga, a drama cd, and a spin off that's still ongoing before the anime was even announced, before the anime was announced.
>Durarara
Seriously? it's creator Ryougo has written other LN series, and has his own following. That and Baccano won an award. Especially because Yasuda was the one who did the illustration for it, and I remember Yasuda did talk about Durarara before too.
It's mainly based off of sales but that isn't always true. However, just because there are exceptions doesn't change the normal threshold.
>Yeah...10th place in the top 10. Last place. That ain't good no matter how you fail to twist it.
Yes 10th place, you do realize that there are more than 10 movies that showed in Japanese theaters right? You like to call other people dumbass but you don't understand simple logic.
>So where's the Rail Wars stage play? Where's the Chiaka stage play?
You really are an idiot aren't you? Those franchises don't have the demographic that is interested that in that kind of stuff.
>muh Tokyo Ghoul
>muh sales
3,620K Tokyo Ghoul's DVD sales average
and it's sequel got
2,027K Tokyo Ghoul √A
Going by your own rule of thumb Tokyo Ghoul must be a failure.

Also a series with more than one season and is not a self contained story gets a sequel while the one that actually just ends does, not how shocking. Next you're going to say that GITS has no fans.

>Is an exception
Nope.
>Had both a manga, a drama cd, and a spin off that's still ongoing before the anime was even announced
And the LN still sold like shit. Re:Zero also had a manga before the anime adaptation and a Drama CD as did DxD again what's your point that that somehow negates the fact that that they were poor sellers before their respective anime gave them a huge boost? Are you so stupid that you can accept that the manga were used as a vehicle to PROMOTE the source of material and not made due to its popularity?
> it's creator Ryougo has written other LN series, and has his own following. That and Baccano won an award.
Yet it still sold like shit before the anime. Baccano was NEVER a high seller also Yasuda wasn't a big name when he did the illustrations for DDR it certainly doesn't help that his name is now considered poison

Let me put it to you in simle terms snce you obviously don't get it. A movie that premieres in 10th place is not a success by any stretch of the imagination.

>Going by your own rule of thumb Tokyo Ghoul must be a failure.
I never said it wasn't. The TG anime was a huge failure yet the manga is a huge success that spawned two stage plays, videogames and a upcoming live action movie so the anime did its job by getting people to read the source of material meanwhile all Blood-C's anime spawn was a...cheap stage play production.

>Also a series with more than one season and is not a self contained story gets a sequel while the one that actually just ends does, not how shocking.
What the fuck are you talking about? Both of those shows had their seasons/movies PLANNED IN ADVANCE not because of audience reception or good sales. Do you just love to make yourself look dumb?
>>
>>14868980
>cult following
It has no cult following. All merch for it sold like shit and the anime only did well initially because of a fucking event ticket in which sales dropped after it was done. Nobody is clamoring for a sequel and people were laughing at its inclusion in SRW V with comments such as."why"?
> but it's still Gundam, it still has notoriety because of that people watched it,
Which is why it had among the lowest ratings in the franchise? Yeah..
>3-4 months on average give or take to produce an anime beyond the point which it will actually have assets.
So you're just gonna keep on pretending? Alright
>Xros Wars was extended last minute,
Young Hunters was already planned as a half-assed anniversary season because they had to fill up the slot until Saint Seiya Omega took its place. You yourself said that anime production takes 3 to 4 months so how the hell would they be able to extend something on the last minute?
