Once more, we shall meet again in the endless cycle of rebirth and death.
Let's continue to talk about Fafner and how hopefully the new Yamato and new FMP season won't force us to wait till 2020 for another installment
>>14870514
let it take time so we get quality product like Exodus
did people like H&E?
>>14870524
>did people like H&E?
It crams a shitton into a relatively short runtime, I think that hurt it a bit but it's still great.
Probably has the best ending we've seen in a Fafner installment too.
Does fafner really need a long running general?
You do know what happens after about 30 general threads, right?
>>14870622
There have been a decent amount of people watching lately, it can't hurt.
More than likely threads will die down in a week or two and stay quiet until announcement time in December.
I'm the only one that like the Titan Models?
>>14870622
We've got people doing watches right now. So it's fine. I didn't call it a general specifically because of that.
If we've got nobody live watching then these threads will disappear.
But having 3 threads in about 3 weeks really isn't a general.
>>14870514
>the endless cycle of rebirth and death
/m/ banner when?
Oh hey a new thread.
Ok, so a few minor changes. The subs for episode 22, have been changed to work with the "extended" version of episode 22. I changed just a few words in a few places (I think episode 18, and maybe a couple other places to make some dialog less clunky (meaning is unchanged, just some grammatical tics).
I think I'm gonna go revisit the first half again and make sure I caught all the QC stuff.
The Exodus rips are no longer in the original mega folder, but the subtitles for all episodes still are.
I'm keeping H&E where it was because it's easier than moving it, and Exodus rips (with subtitles muxed) has been/is being moved to a new folder.
I'll be uploading the Arcadian Memories as well for completeness's sake.
OSTs are gonna be uploaded as well at some time. I'm thinking I might convert everything to a more usable format for everyone, but don't hold your breath.
Here is the main folder:https://mega.nz/#F!gJFlFRTQ!50mlBOjg8zyAqk91a2ClLg
Here is the annex folder with Exodus(although it's mostly empty at the time of this posting):https://mega.nz/#F!fpElEbJC!3OQVyFO7yX1z9T8S3sd1zg
A text file with the link for the annex is included in the main folder as well.
As usual, feel free to lemme know if I fucked anything up.
>>14870622
I'm personally interested in seeing Hypeanon's continued reactions, so this thread beinghereis finefor now.
>>14870998
Oh yeah, for fun wanted to have /faf/ try something.
Pick an episode from Exodus and rename similarly to the format from DA.

He was the guywho tried to nuke the island after failing to secure Tsubaki and the Nothung Models
>>14874393
Okay, maybe the 7 month hiatus without a rewatch wasn't the greatest idea, but still! I stand by the accessory.Fuck that motherfucker, damnit is he actually /ourguy/ now though what the fuck.
>>14874401
Watch and find out.
>>14874393
>>14874401
To be fair,he did help out against Polaris at the end of DA too. Between that and Exodus he's not all bad, for the NUN anyway.
>>14874401
You'd be forgiven for forgetting him. It doesn't help that the old subs translated his name as Barns.
>>14874401
>is he actually /ourguy/
Well considering____________________________, it's kinda hard to say.
>>14874411
I watched some old as fuck subs, like ripped from Jap cable with Earthquake and Olympic gold medal winning notifications appearing too.
So he was probably Barns and that really helped the confusion.

Now you're seeing what that actually meant. Yes, Festum could see the future the entire time, they were just TOO FUCKING STUPID to actually figure out how to do anything with it.

Still HYPE every time though.

Not to start any comparisons or arguments, just something I've really liked out of Fafner.
>>14874456
Yeah that was certainly the best, I'm just happy they're doing it in spots that still work.

The issue with Fafner where it's one of the few legitimate cases where you can't judge the entire product based on the early episodes.
It's sad that our culture has basically conditioned us to be ADHD when watching shows or reading books now.

Ok, but in universe, it is a "live-action" low budget crapfest. It's supposed to be toku at its base, whatever it is parodying is secondary to the fact thathe deserved to die for being a tokuidol

>"This is not a rescue mission"
I know it'll get revealed later why they're hiding from the Neo-UN but could someone just briefly summarize? This line makes it seem like hiding from the Neo-UN is more important than fighting the ayy lmaos.
>>14875040
>I know it'll get revealed later
It will. Just keep watching.
>his line makes it seem like hiding from the Neo-UN is more important than fighting the ayy lmaos.

>The NUNs are cunts.
Hmmm. I guess that's really all I need to know.
>>14875040
>>14875059
If you're really curious I don't think there's a whole lot to spoil, but to be as vague as possibleAlvis and the Neo UN have very, very different ways of operating. The NUN isn't too happy with the idea of an autonomous community like the island that's not under their control.
>>14875093
Hmmm. I think I get it.
As an aside, this effect of the sun being in two different position is fairly cool.
This useless sack of shit dies horribly, right? Jesus fuck I have never wanted another character in any medium to suffer a painful death as much as this fucking bitch.

>>14874502
Please you know well enough if enough hangers on made it through the early slog it'd be christened a trainwreck show one way or another rather than being left alone.
Any show that amasses a certain critical mass of viewers inevitably becomes a cesspit of ironic enjoyment and collective shame over liking a thing.
>>14875040
>This line makes it seem like hiding from the Neo-UN is more important than fighting the ayy lmaos.
Well a perfectly good reason is the entire second half of the show, the finale of the movie, and practically all of Exodus.
>>14875993
>we're gonna build a welle shield
>and we'll make the Neo UN pay for it
MAKE ALVIS GREAT AGAIN
>>14876036
Yes.The horrible thing is that I can see this happening to Fafner. Slowly but surely more and more people trickle into the show. People praising Fafner are now rare on /a/, rather than non-existent. Soon we'll face the day where some fucking E-Celeb like Digibro or Mother's Basement do a "Fafner : The underrated mecha masterpiece" video
lol
>>14877017
So convenient!
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gx-GPPXeB7I
Saw this video going around the Fafner twitter. Aoki Takashi, the director of photography who was responsible for the all the great background shots and UI/monitor designs in H&E and Exodus, posted a video he cut together from Exodus footage to show off at some Cinema4D presentation meeting. Looks pretty good.
Spoilers as fuck though, especially latter half of Exodus, so anyone still going through shouldn't watch.

This is a serious warning for your midterms.
Don't end on odd numbered episodes.

So if you stop at a point that you feel you're okay waiting on, don't push your luck,

Girl no, you ain't. Goddamnit these peopl DON'T DESERVE THIS

Also an important bit of trivia for you for later on.

It's really unfun when it happens and I envy the peace you guys have right now where people don't breathe down your neck about genuinely enjoying things.
You could probably relate it to the NUNS-Alvis relationship in how dickish it is.
What a hussie
>>14870639
I never noticed that the Gundrakes are based on the Naginatas the Titan Models used. Makes sense for Sui.
Is it wrong I want totenderly comfort and console Soushi? And kiss him and give him a stress relieving handjob/blowjob? He needs some love and it needs to be tenderly bullied onto him.

>>14878578

>>14879614

Fuck, I just opened this thread to bump it.
Spooky
>>14879663
Hey, the dog thing was in HaE. It's no spoiler. And if the other part was a spoiler, it was one revealed in the post I replied to anywayconsidering Kurusu and Kouyou never had any interaction beyond "trying to kill each other" until Exodus.
>Hiro getting ready to fuck 4chan up
Well, maybe if it does take 4 years for the next Fafner product, somewhere new will have been created where we can all meet again
>>14882430
>You can always go work with Dustin and his crew bah
That's the equivalent of what you're saying.
>>14882425
We could go to cripplechan.
The mecha board is currently defunct, but it could be made again.
Who is the lead writer of Fafner?
>>14883576
Tow Ubakata, I forget who the first guy was, but Fafner is really one of those shows that's a very collaborative project.
It's also Tow's best show, one in which is inability to handle dystopian cyberpunk settings without dropping the ball heavily isn't an issue.
It's funny also because Urobuchi made Gargantia which shares a lot of the same plot skeleton as Fafner, but Fafner does it so much better and less hamfistedily
>>14883583
Man I think relating Gargantia to Fafner is a massive stretch.
You can cross the streams all you want with Majestic Prince but it ain't clicking with Gargantia.
>>14883616
Both series focus on the adventures of a massive island ships in a post apocalyptic setting in which they wish to preserve a culture of peace against a massive "alien" threat that could destroy their island at any moment, where ultimately an attempt at coexistence is made while people who should be working with the protagonists instead continue to inflame the conflict.
>>14883583
The first guy is him: https://anidb.net/perl-bin/animedb.pl?show=creator&creatorid=15684
Incidentally, he has only worked on a handful of shows since then.

Is there any noticeable quality differences between the bluray and DVD of Fafner DA? I can't expect there to be due to its time of being made, but I'm wondering since I want to get a disc. Just wanna know if it's worth it or not.
>>14887485
They're just upscales, so it depends on your tolerance for that. Probably not a major step up.
>>14887485

Fuck, these episodes are getting close every time.
>>14889398
Brother?
>>14889383
You're getting to PURE UNBRIDLED HYPE now anon.
Do be warned, though, there's still some pretty horrible stuff that happens in the next few episodes. Like remember that one bit of foreshadowing in HaE about something really terrible that never happened? Well...
Two more months boys and girls
>>14889398It's a shame that subplot went nowhere. It really felt to me like they dropped it because it would render either Reo or Mimika unusable for a sequel.
Goubain rising.
>>14894184
>>14894458
To prevent confusion : Rina likes girls in the ways that all teenage Japanese girls are allowed to like other girls.
Aka until they find a man they want to fuck.
>>14892886The thing is a lot of subplots don't really get fulfilled until sequel series. In whatever sequel we get, I assume Mimika's time as ORB will likely be relevant.
>>14894519
That's wrong though.
reMOVE NUNS. Remove nuns.
;___;
>>14894458
>>14894519
>>14894613
>>14894653
Oh man.
You're in the gauntlet.
>>14894524I would hope so. Mimika and Reo didn't really have a decent subplot or development by the end of Exodus. I want to think that they were supposed to be the Kenji/Sakura of Gen 3, but both of them had their own development unrelated to their romance, which just doesn't exist for these two.
>>14894661I'm expecting more deaths. Not sure about Sakura but I have a feeling Michio (death flags every where) and either Mamoru or Kenji will die too.
>>14894675
I think episode 24 is the breather.
The finale is really outstanding though.
As cool as Exodus was, I think DA has a vastly superior end (at least until the next movie).
>>14894675
HERE'S A FUN GAME

;___;7
>>14894882
And here we go.
>>14894882
>>14894882
And now comes Episode 23
How's the horrible dawning realization that the peace the island enjoyed for the past arc was literally balanced on very fragile scales.
That the purpose of the entire first arc was to establish that the island was one step from destruction at all times, the second arc lulled you into a false sense of security where you took for granted how "secure" everything had become, and this final arc is telling you that the peace that Tatsumiya enjoyed was also false.
>>14894928
I think that my absolute favourite part of Fafner is how despite all the awful shit happening all the time the show never once, tonally, succumbs to despair. You can even say that Fafner, in its emotional core, is a show built onhope.This is also why Sora no Woto is my #1 favourite of all time
bamperino
:__;
>>14898530
She was a bitch, but only because she felt used by the island, she still saved it in the end and didn't deserve that.
>>14898533
She was never a bitch.

Reminder : Not all Fafners have cockpits in the same location.
It varies by model.
>>14898619
That's a copout.
>>14898619
>>14898637
All Nothung models have crotch (maybe actually backside too it's hard to tell) cockpits, to clarify. It's nothing new, it's established from the start whenever they're loaded into the Fafners.
The NUN models are the disgusting deviations from the norm, as expected.

>>14898530
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QWxSVnKjURs
>>14898637
>Copout
No, it's not.
You have to pay attention to where the cockpits are.
Nothung Models have them in the crotch.
Most Nun Fafners have them in the chest.
I'm just saying this to save you a bit of confusion when you get to Exodus.
>>14898649
>>14898646
Don't remember ever seeing that and I'm pretty sure the ELF was no different.
>>14898637
Episode 3 at the very end, you see the cockpit being loaded into the back of the lower crotch. That's the first instance I recalled.
Alsoyou're implying Maya wouldn't have been better off dying right there. HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
>>14898658
From episode 6.
Also this does look more like the backside, like I said a few posts up it can be hard to tell. I'm thinking maybe there's a tube system so they can be ejected either way.
>>14898683
That's not the dick though, the crotch is a bit lower.
>>14898687
Either way it's enough for >>14898616 to work out, that general area is intact.
>>14898683
Also, when Drei rips out Koyo we get a shot of it.
>>14892288
I can't imagine anything significant will be announced. Xebec is going to be dead busy for the next year and a half if not two years.
>>14898925
Maybe an OVA like Right of Left. Perseus Company and Emery pre-Exodus could be interesting.

>>14901899
By the way Anonymous, there's a drama CD covering some information they couldn't fit into the episode. It's only half translated but the events areKazuki and Fumihiko have a fight where Kazuki basically says he wants to die fighting in Alaska because he's fucked no matter what. Maya and Canon have a weird trippy sequence adjusting Canon to be able to pilot a Nothung model, where you learn she's basically been keeping the memories of everyone whose died in side her, and she tells us her real mother died after pushing her out a window so she wouldn't get eaten by Festum and Canon goes to Kenji and apologizes for being so rough with him earlier and tells him if he won't go, she'll protect him and pilot the Acht
>>14870639
No.
I like the Titan Models.
>I saved them,KAZUKI

SHIT DAMN I COME BACK AFTER A WEEK AND MY MIND IS FUCK
>>14904262
>HOW ARE YOU BACKHe decided it was time to come home.
>>14904262Koyo didn't die in Heaven and Earth. His core teleported out right before Nicht destroyed the Vier. It then chilled inside Urd's Well because he basically couldn't do anything else since he was just a core without a Fafner and he couldn't really TELL anyone to build him a new Fafner to be stuck in. Kenji got the healing SDP, and with a bit of guidance from [redacted] Kenji managed to make an entire new Vier for Koyo AND also gave Koyo his body back.

>>14904302
Read this after you finish the episodeBasically something really similar to what that happened to Koyo when he became a Core to pilot the Vier. Sadly Kenji's not really strong enough to fix her with how far she went like he could Koyo, sine she's still not technically a Festum, thus she can't make up the extra push of power like Koyo could
>>14904302You should already have known the fate of all those who pilot the Funf. Fun fact: Olga was the pilot who commandeered Funf during the brief NUN takeover during the original.

Goddamn, it's always suffering with thehelmet. Shit that's so damn interesting though.
>>14904352
I mean, maybeKoyo or Orihime could have saved her, but they both spec'd with different Festum SPDs and thus they lack the ability to do so, while Kenji lacks the power to handle that kind of crazy shit. But noooooooooooo Koyo needed to have worm weapons like the Diablo Types and Orihime needed future vision that she could hardly do shit with because Future vision is entirely dependent on only showing you futures where you're alive so you can get information from and fucking Orihime has 0 Combat ability, which is why Canon had to take up the power because she and Maya were the two best pilots with the best stamina and would 100% be the last women standing long after Kazuki or Soushi burn out like candles from piloting their overclocked Fafners. Orhime couldn't even make use of fucking information stacking like Canon could because she doesn't fucking know how to build a robot

FUG
>>14904352
>it's always suffering with thehelmet.
It's the opposite.
TheGoubine helmet is the talisman that wards off the curse of the Funf.
>>14904370
But anon, Orihime'sfuture vision isn't an SDP. Orihime isn't even a pilot. Future vision just comes as a part of the basic deal for the Festum, which she is.
>>14904999No, Future Vision is a SDP, otherwise it's not a power Canon could develop, and fucking Tsubaki and Koyo clearly don't have them and Misao has a variant given to him by the Dreizehn. All Festums don't share all powers. The general package is assimilation, worm spheres and mind reading. Future Vision isn't something Festum spec into because they can't fucking use it well for the reason. It burns you up fast and the biggest asset of it is gathering information you can pass on to others that only YOU would have. You need to be able to process the information and Festum weren't even smart enough to fucking try and stall Tatsumiya until the end of Season 1. For the majority of Festum it doesn't make enough of a return in comparission to being able to breathe nuclear fire, create storms, or freeze shit to assimilate. Shit's really going to get fucked when a Mir or Greg finally realizes how broken it can be, since one chick using it for Tatsumiya managed to create the next generation of Fafner able to repel a Festum Invasion of such unprecedented scale
Why does this show rip off Muv-Luv so much?
>>14905105
What are you talking about?
Fafner isn't watered down with far too much fucking high school and harem drama to try and hide the true nature of it's series and actually didn't have to resort to "well there's this special class of Festum that shoots lasers so no planes" like Muv Luv
Any similarities are superficial at most.
>>14904999
>>14905041It probably helps to remember that "SDP" is also what the Festum abilities are called, for the first anon. So yeah, it's not Fafner-related, but is her natural "Super Dimensional Power".
I think all Festum probably have the CAPABILITY to share the same powers, but yeah, an average Sphinx-type isn't gonna be self-aware enough to have any idea what to do with time. Like Mjolnir said, time was never of much value to them.
The Festum we "know" like Kouyou and the Cores are human enough that they need to specialize a bit more, so it's treated more as unique special abilities. But they still have closer to outright Festum capability than the Nothung/Einherjar pilots, who clearly just take one power to its fullest potential.
Anata wo souko ni imasu ka?
Fuck I can't wait for the 29th of December for more suffering.

Despite their rich natural deposits of homolust, the people of Tatsumiyajima have not yet discovered lesbianism.

>>14906696
we'll never know the name of the Dominion's ground model
>>14906702
Not for lack of trying.
>>14906648
It's more like Rina suffered from the suspension bridge effect in HaE when Kenji saved her life.Seriously though the moment that Sphinx grabbed her escape pod my heart skipped a beat
>>14906648If Tsubaki didn't disappear, Seri definitely would have given it to her.
Watching episode 26, why is there no mention of it on MAL? It has the two recap specials, Right of Left for prequel, the manga adaptions, but no mention of episode 26.
>>14907505
>MAL
Anon pls.25 & 26 aired together, originally.
>>14907505
Because the ending of Fafner originally aired as a 45 minute special aired together, so nobody ever updated it.
>>14907512
>>14907510
Ah okay.
>>14906648
>>14906964
Rina just falls for pilots who impress her by being cool sempais regardless of their gender.
As for the Tsubaki thing, that was Seri teasing and projecting her own homolust on her.
>>14907524
And then she became the hot senpai.
POTTERY
Go in the box, silly loli.
>>14907533
WellShe kind of lost all her options to death, marriage, Festumness or CRIPPLING PTSD. Though she could really fuck with Maya by dressing up as Akira and telling her she wants to fuck

Also anyone know the song/track that plays starting around this scene?
Is it even worth the bother to deal with the two recap episodes or should I just skip straight to the OVA?

Damn, I dunno man. Maybe try guides for troubleshooting HEVC?
Probably not all that helpful, but I don't know what else.
I know MPC works, but at least for me, it makes my computer sound like a jet about to take off.
>>14910264
I'm in the same boat, even changing codec packs and the like doesn't help, anything 1080p is hit or miss. Messing with settings I can get it to seem okay for a few minutes, but then eventually it'll stutter and go out of sync.
The fan never noticeably speeds up, but I think my machine just isn't up to the task.
