Episode 32 - New Thread (ver 2.0)
Can we appreciate the fact that the most efficient weapon in IBO isn't a gun or a sword or an club. The most efficient weapon is a fucking pincer.
it might be my sheer disdain for season 1 effecting my views on season 2 or is season 2 actually good(so far)
>>14941525
They came up with a super robot weapon in a real robot series, of course its effective.
>>14941552
Season two has really picked up when it comes to actual choreography. The quality is still all over the place though.
S2 really picked up the pace compared to S1, take it for better or worse.
Personal opinion: S1: 4/10. sofar, S2 has been a 6/10.
>>14941607
How low is they budget compared with other Gundams? Because man the MS are fucking cool but the animation is garbaje a lot of times.
>>14941607
>Personal opinion: S1: 4/10. sofar, S2 has been a 6/10.
It's a shared opinion. S2, until now, it was a step forward. The Pirate battle and Guts pincer especially.
Accepted, that the "quality" will not cease, at level of story, at last, it's becoming something with a sense. In fact, with these various episodic missions and a unique main story developed in parallel, the S2 is proving to be all that the S1 was not .
.
>>14941630
S1 consisted of 2~ decent fights, Episode 7 vs Turbines and the final one between Not-a-Char and Not-a-Garma. pixie point for episode 13's opening fight.
Overall, most of S1's fights consists of build ups, cliffhanger ending episodes with an AWESOME HIGHDETAILED POSED MOBILE SUIT to return to terrible quality and highquality single frames.
Gusion is awesome but doesnt really do alot of awesome things.
S2 has had actual decently animated and well choreographed fights, QUALITY is still there (Land rodi bouncing off a tree comes to mind) but overall S2 has really improved the action from a 2/10 to a solid 6/10. the OST is great aswell.
Pincers are awesome now
This is only my opinion, so take it as you will
>>14941645
Indeed, it does seem that they learned from their S1 battles.
>>14941516
Personal opinion: S1: 10/10. well, S2 has been a 10/10.
>>14941727
Good for you.
>>14941522
died
>>14941593
Guts should shout something when he uses the pincers. Like FRAME CRUSSHEEEEER!, or similar.
>>14941516
Dropped
>>14941819
The romance between Kudelia and Mikazuki is irrelevant, provided that the thing still exists.
>>14941830
>>14941834
Wow and i thought Uzbeks were sluts
Honestly though death to all Uzbekistan
>>14941834
They look like Biscuits sons, not mika.
>>14941607
>Personal opinion: S1: 4/10. sofar, S2 has been a 6/10.
Honestly for me
S1: 6/10
S2: 8/10 (so far)
>>14941834
It's funny how one of the few times Mika shows emotion, it's despair.
Season 1
>4/10
Season 2
>5/10
>>14941871
Take one point from each so S1 5/10; S2 7/10 and that's it for me.
S1: 9/10
S2: 10/10
Season 1
>4/10
We are only some four episodes in with S2, so I will refrain from giving any point for it, yet, but so far it has been doing better than S1, in my opinion.
>>14941524
About time there was a webm of that scene.
>>14942300
>The judging animation based on stills meme
>Any year
>>14941709
best fight of s1 was most likely gusion vs an entire quad of grazes
you know, the fright that happened completely offscreen while we watched grazein's magical show of teleporting around without killing anything.
guts needs more fights. every time he shows up its awesome.
>>14942293
Why is the dialog in this webm so garbage?
I'm presuming this had to be, like, google-translate tier subs, and betters ones for that scene are available. But that doesn't explain why this is the version that people keep posting.
>>14942641
Part of it is that the scene is the tailend of a battle dialog between Akihiro and beardguy whatshisname.
The other part is I think whoever made the webm started removing frames to fit to time and/or filesize.
At any rate it comes off more stilted than it's supposed to.
>>14942660
>I think whoever made the webm started removing frames to fit to time and/or filesize
Yeah, it's missing all the in-cockpit shots of the pilots, so like half the dialogue is missing.
>>14942660
>>14942673
Okay, good. As long as there is an explanation for it.

Yes we get it... You don't get enough attention at home so you shitpost here on /m/ with those meme images you've made.
Why do people say Mika is autistic when he's affectionate enough to kiss Kudelia?
when they going to kill either for DRAMA
>>14943165
He kissed her because Space-Felini suggested it to him.
>>14941645
Pirate battle had kind of a lame plot.
Pincers are still obnoxious but it was a good fight scene.
>>14942631
>Those fuckhuge arm binders
Did Obari draw this scene? Because it looks rad as fuck.
I also eagerly await the day someone does of a custom build of the Gusion that gives it those proportions.
Was looking at the prototype Flauros pics again. Whoever at Teiwaz who likes putting those neat chevrons on all the armor they make, keep up the good work.
>>14942709
fuck off D-Joe and his repetitive stupid meme
So what is Mika eating again?
Is there a pic with images of all the IBO MS so far?
>>14943685
>shit idols and moe shit are currently /m/
>>14943176
Only after they introduce the third wheel, Shino needs some busty female pilot with a tragic sob story of how she had to do AV surgery and Yamagi needs someone to stab for being a two faced bitch or get stabbed.
Seriously Shino's horndog personality is great bait for some swallow to take advantage of.

Maybe if it took the time to have a coherent plot it wouldn't have been hot garbage.
Why are the subs so shit?
>>14945307
Have subtitle complainers ever stopped for a moment and thought to themselves "maybe Japanese is a very basic language in comparison to our own and what these cartoon characters for children are saying IS actually very basic, contrived and obtuse: hence the poor translation?"
I think that that is wrong.
>>14945307
I don't understand what you mean. The subs we get are actually take some liberties to reduce awkward mouthfuls.
>>14945229
You got Lafter, fuck off horndog.
Gundam is for manservice.

>>14945351
This scene was really kind of off, to me. I mean, we know that Mika get out of control, into a rage, when someone he likes or a friend are put in danger or hurt, and in this episode he watched as Chocochar killed Aston, his tekkadan comrade.
I know that Orga ordered Mika to not harm Chocochar, but interac with him normally, after he killed a tekkadan member, is too off.
In head, it could be one of two things: Or Mika didn't really care to Aston, as he was joined later and didn't interacted too much with him. Or is simply poor/selective writting.
>>14945786
Maybe he didn't know Aston well enough to care.
I can't say he knew it wasn't intended, he still went apeshit that one time Gaelio almost flattened the Griffon twins. Maybe he's learned to contain his inner rage elemental... except he did nearly chimp out at Hush that one time...
...it's probably because he didn't know Aston all too well, really.
>>14945786
I had the same thoughts.
Nobody really knew Aston well but Guts still went on a rampage.
>>14945804
Didn't Gust "adopted" the Brewers kids as his "brothers" or something like that
>>14945786
It was revealed that Tekkadan was manipulated by the merc and Radice. Mika knows well enough that they are the ones responsible for Tekkadans death more that Mcgillis. What's more, since Takaki survived, he could of admitted that Mcgillis asked them about who was ordering them as trying to calm down the situation.
Mika is not stupid. He, Takaki and Akihiro already dealt with the ones responsible for making their comrades die in vain. He can't fault Mcgillis for Astons death when it was Takaki and Aston who disregarded Mcgillis questions and threw the first punch.
>>14945818
I remember reading an image description (of low quality) that said that Akihiro suggested that all those taken into Tekkadan without a family name can take "Artland" as their name.
>>14945848
To be fair though, Mika is a bit of a gun jumper when he assumes someone is trying to fuck with his friends, prone to applying his usual brand of overwhelming force to settle any conflict.
Part of me thinks that it would make sense for him to have some simmering rage going on.
Though, he did seem to intend on taking it out on Radice, so I guess he sees McGillis as ultimately not culpable for Aston's death.
>>14945851
Low quality image? You can go to the official site and read their bios. The HD kids who joined Tekkadan are all Altlands now.
Hmmmm
>>14945934
What is Vidar stabbing? Because that foot doesn't look like it belongs to a Tekkadan MS.
>Gundam Vidar has THREE Ahab Reactors
Hot damn, even though the one on the its back only exists to conceal its identity as the Kimaris frame or some shit.
>>14945965
Remember that the reactors have uniquely identifying wavelengths, using some spare Graze reactor can pass off as a reasonable disguise before switching to the twin drive system and outing yourself as the Kimaris reborn.
>>14945971
I really hope the Vidar does some cool shit in that regard.
the Vidar mask's purpose is to emit brainwaves to the new AV System it has installed in the cockpit, you need AV to get the most performance of a Gundam
>>14945948
It looks like a Graze foot?
>>14945934
the saber is called Tyrfing
But how do you know such things
>>14946004
I'm from the future... Vidar/Gali teams up with what's left with Tekkadan to stop McGillis and his doomsday weapon
>>14946013
Tell me the name of the characters who die, Future Anon.
>>14945965
If Vidar jobs I'm going to be pissed.
>>14946035
>if
>>14946044
even Ein Graze got one good fight. of course all his damage was made void next episode but he still had some awesome "kills"
>>14946035
If they actually follow through with the mythology, Gaelio should be one of the only characters to survive.
>>14946025
Kudelia Sugoi will die 5 episodes from now.
>>14943176
They're safe. They already killed off one homo and are already building up the Lafter/Guts for more DRAMA.

Really makes you think........
>>14945948
Just promotional art.
Remember the image of Mcgillis commander graze over a tekkadan Shiden?
Instead it was a rodi.
>>14946035
Most likely. He's pushing everything into improving his Gundam to obliterate his enemies. So most likely, Hush Middies line of Mikazuki being special by nature will justify Mika beating Gali again because he is 'special'.
>>14946399
I'm guessing they're going to attach that to Barbatos like they did with Exia and the Raiser system?
Maybe not since it's supposed to be bigger than a mobile suit.
What's the purple beetle mech for?
>>14946399
Bettleborg mode?
>our show needs to have a Nu/WZC/DX/Freedom/00Q/FX equivalent
>>14946475
Barbatos's brother? Because those chest and arms are the same.
>>14945965
Somebody needs to tell Gali if he's gonna parade around the ship in those garish blue stilettos the crew might start thinking he's a loose girl.
>>14946489
It's Gundam Bael.
Bael the 1st Demon of Ars Goetia.
It's IBO's RX-78?
>>14944865

>>14946514
Desperation.
>>14946501
>Bael the 1st Demon of Ars Goetia.
>It's IBO's RX-78?
I see. Considering McGillis mention of the founder of Gjallarhorn, the Bael could be the first frame to be built and belonged to him.

>>14946581

>>14946557
Looks like mecha of Gjallahorn founder.
>>14946563
Looks like a mobile suit made to oppose Tekkadan.
>>14946563

>>14946557
>>14946501
>>14946569
>>14946604
>Gundam Bael confirmed
Fuckin' sweet.
Would make sense for the First Gundam to have been piloted by Gjallarhorn's founder. The question remains who'll be piloting it in modern day, given he's long dead.
Rustal or McGillis seem like the primary candidates. Highly doubtful that the Seven Stars would let the weapon of their founder fall out of their hands.
>>14946557
Either Autism girl,Hush middy or someone new gets it. Perhaps a flashback character when going through the legend of Gallahorns creator.
>>14946560
New Teiwaz model? looks similar to a shiden.
>>14946563
I'm betting that belongs to Rustal. It suits his ego.
>>14946451
Am i'm the only one who sees the pink power rangers Pterodactyl?
>>14946654
>Either Autism girl,Hush middy or someone new gets it. Perhaps a flashback character when going through the legend of Gallahorns creator.
Or Barbatos gets reked by Vidar and Mika gets a new one like Kira getting Freedom after Strike.
>>14946563
That's a big sword
>>14946563
Valkyria frame? Grimgarde 2.0? McGillis is a dual wield kinda pilot so maybe it'll be piloted by his fuccboi?
>>14946669
Probably belongs to Rustal.
>>14941516
this is probably the most nonsense romance ever
>>14946557
That's a final boss alright.
It's also the fourth 1/100.
>>14946692
Yeah it does look like final boss material, especially considering its the demon king, but it could also end up as an upgrade the thing is IBO Gundams are medabots, deep down they are all the same skeleton so would it really be an upgrade
>>14944492
>>14944495
So Rustal wanted fuck Shota chocman but he refused?

>>14946661
It has been a while since a main character has gotten a new gundam; just having an upgraded version. In Gundam Build Fighters Try, Sekai used Kamiki Burning Gundam in the last episode and used it in the ova
>>14946692
No way they are only doing 1/100 Gundams.
There has to be at least one grunt suit. Probably a Graze variation.
>>14946846
>It has been a while since a main character has gotten a new gundam; just having an upgraded version
Don't forget Gundam 00 were each of them got new gundams for both seasons and their movies.
>>14946855
Can't even tell what is going on in that image.
>>14946563
Over compensation at its finest. This is definitely Supreme commanders suit.
>we STILL don't know what colors Flauros will have
>>14946861
Barbatos smashing his fist into Vidar.
Haven't read the thread so might be old news but tri-age game card confirmed Vidar serial number= Kimaris.
>>14946986
Are you sure he isn't blocking and the fist is on the far side of the head?
>>14946945
It will be pink duhhh
>>14946998
I just hope it will have more pink than Vidar has the blue.
>>14946997
To me it looks like they're clashing weapons.
>>14947015
I just said block because Mika looks too close to use a polearm effectively.
Also wouldn't blocking with a weapon be clashing weapons anyway?
>>14947021
It's a cross counter.
>>14946997
Kimaris is blocking the punch with its face. A masterfully executed ancient martial arts technique
>>14947031
Barbatos would be the one blocking.
>>14946692
>That's a final boss alright.

Considering this guy's clothing, he'd be a pretty safe bet to pilot the Flauros first before Shino.

>>14947090
He's a tertiary character and its Tekkadan's shit. He'd be on an instant trip to the shithouse if he was caught stealing Tekkadan's shit.
>>14947139
He's already an insolent potential fuck up to McMurdo, questioning Tekkadan's growth in earlier episodes.
>>14947070
And Barbatos looks like it belongs to McGills.
It's not like some crazy shit is going to happen at the 13th episode mark that changes everything and will drag Mika to the dark side forcing Vidar to join Takkadan right?
>>14947041
It's also looking too lackluster to be the final boss.

At this point i'm pretty sure Gaelio is definitely Gyobu's favorite character.
>>14947287
Kimaris so far is my favorite design in IBO.
>>14947228
I gave war a chance both before it was cool and when you fucks tried shilling peace and understanding with the enemy.
Fuck you boy.
>>14947384
assault rifles are already useless enough in IBO, what are those crotch pistols even going to achieve?

>>14947376
>Less than 30 days until release date
>We still don't know it's colors
>>14947365
So Bael's weapons are two longish swords. So far only McGillis likes dual welding swords.
>>14947428
Sick juggles, do you even cuhrayzee?
>>14947287
I can't wait to see how the Vidar looks with the Kimaris' colorshcheme.
>>14947365
around shoulders are ornaments of stars
>>14946475
Is this really Bael? Or is that just speculation.
>>14947499
It's written in Japanese Gundam Bael.
Gundam - ガンダム
Bael - バエル
>>14947523
Ahh, excellent.
I'm surprised at how streamlined it looks despite being the first Gundam frame produced.
...Unless Gjallarhorn did some heavy modifications to it.
>>14947365
The flap on its shoulder armor has that same power symbol the Barbatos has on its knees, or shoulders in the case of the latters 4th form.
>>14947559
Nope, wait. I forgot that the Lupus has different looking symbols on its knees.
>>14947450
9/10 chance it's going to be this anyway.
>>14947365
>Two swords draping off the back
Yeah, McGillis will be piloting this then. Final boss confirmed.
>the Vual is getting a kit
I like the design, but those colors are horrendous.
>>14947559
Knees and shoulders are completely different.
>>14947587
My eyes are bleeding. Colors are horrible.
>>14947600
I think a chick might be the one piloting it, so that's a good enough explanation for its ugly colors.
>>14947575
The demon king! Will it be red or blue?
There needs to be more Julieta, between seeing her crying and hearing Mao crying I decided I wanted more Julieta.
>>14947615
red, Vidar is already blue
>>14947587
>Vual getting a kit
Hell yes. I'll have to repaint it though.
>>14945965
>switchblade heels
Oh my.
If gundam bael is for McGillis, then which gundam will Rustal pilot since each family except Fareed have their own signature Gundam?
>>14947703
Rustal most likely is going to pilot this Valkyrie - Helmwige Linker.
>>14946563
>>14947125
Those are actually very efficient anti armour weapons, you know.
>>14947355
This looks like that prototype AMBAC platform form UC.
>>14947428
Suppressive fire, potshots, maybe those are chambered in what is mecha equivalent of hot loaded .600 nitro?
>>14947462
Well, with HE warheads, why fucking not?
>>14947535
Clearly, overall tech level has dropped since calamity war times. Sleek usually translated to advanced.
Also, it gives ELS vibes.

>>14946399
So, who's gonna pilot this? I'm convinced this is a job for Hush and the other new bitch boys. It'll give them a job, and that MA is probably a bitch to pilot.
>>14947287
God damn, they really want us to stock up on Gali Gali suits, don't they? Vidar is gorgeous as fuck.
>>14947457
The guy with the Hugo was also a dual-wielder.
>>14947855
I don't think this MA needs a pilot. I don't see even place for a pilot.
>>14947859
Everything we've seen in IBO so far seems to indicate that wireless control isn't a thing. There's also no piloting AI for any of the suits or weapons.
My guess would be a cavity in the main body for one or two people, probably a pilot and a technician, and another spot in the purple body for a pilot.
>>14946563
Is that a fucking Bat-Shu?
>>14946580
And don't forget the rest of the Original 72.
If they're anything like what original Astaroth was they were probably some of the craziest machines around.
A mere glimpse of what the Calamity War was like, that would be nice. Then again is there enough creativity among the staff to write up material for each possible Gundam of the Ars Goetia?
Ippei is crazy but he's just one guy, we need several orders more of crazy.
>>14946580
I thought Mcgillis said that 72 were created?
are 26 all that's left?
>>14946661
THIS turned out to be right. word for word, Vidar rekts Barbatos and Mcgillis gives Mika the gundam of Agnika Kaeiru.
>>14947914
Yes, it's left about 20 - 26.
>>14947914
72 total Gundam frames, one for each demon of the Ars Goetia, but there was some supplementary material saying that only 26 or 27 suits had survived over the years. I think it might've been the HG pamphlet for the Gusion?
>>14947917
Nope, it's only one of the speculations.
two longish swords says it's going to McGillis.
>>14947611
no, it was piloted by some old guy.
is the astaroth manga complete?
>>14947923
I'm not too sure to take the swords as a sign that Mcgillis pilots it.
I remember Mika saying his first katana was hard to use and that he was getting used to it battling Gusion. During his battle with Ein he said he finally was starting to get the hang of it. So giving Mika 2 swords would cause him to re develop his fighting style all over again from bashing with large maces to precise strikes with a sword.
Would give him 'some' form of development at least.
If it does belong to Mcgillis though, i wonder what'll happen to his red MS? it hasn't gotten the attention it deserves.
Also, i wonder where Bael has been kept this whole time. If Mcgillis already had it, it would make sense that he uses it when being Montag but since he hasn't it can be assumed Bael is missing or with someone else?
I suspect that the reason Mcgillis goes to mars to see the mobile weapon is probobly because it houses Bael or has its location.
- pure speculation on my part. Except the sword thing.
>>14947973
Even after finding the time and place for a straight sword, Mika has time and again shown preference for clubs and hammers.
I have my doubts he'd go twin blade. Maybe a single blade for special circumstances (Vidar's Gillette-Rapier would be a nice grab to diversify the Lupus weapon set), but Mika dumped a lot of points into STR and he wants that scaling bonus.
>>14947973
>I suspect that the reason Mcgillis goes to mars to see the mobile weapon is probobly because it houses Bael or has its location.
I suspect the same thing.
Mika many times has showed that he prefers his clubs, maces, hammers over katanas and swords. Even his usable sword is more like a huge scythe .
Bael has the detail formed like stars near his shoulders so this gundam really belongs to Seven Stars Families/Gjallahorn.
>>14947987
Given all the spares that Vidar has for the rapier, I doubt that blade holds up very well.
Wonder if the disposable nature suggests something special about it? Like if the blade penetrating an MS would fuck with their Ahab reactors and/or the nanolaminate armor?
That aside, Mika may not get much of a choice if Bael is an 11th hour upgrade. It may also be the case that McGillis pilots Bael only to be defeated by Vidar. If Barbatos is completely wrecked, and Bael is only slight wrecked, Tekkadan might do a hackjob and send Mika out in a hybrid for the final confrontation.
>>14947999
The promotion suggests that Mika is going to fight Vidar for the middle season climax and Bael release date suggest that it's going to be used in the final battle. That's why I don't see Vidar as a final boss.
>>14947999
>Given all the spares that Vidar has for the rapier, I doubt that blade holds up very well
It probably fouls pretty easily, but that's why the skirt has extra blades.
It's a thin blade designed for thrusts, after all.
>>14947999
Bael's knees, shoulders, the head and the backpack are different from Barbatos. TAt the same time they are somewhat similar like antagonist mobile suit suppose to be: the hero and antagonist must pilot something that makes them equal. Remember this "McGillis has no friends".
>>14948021
This. Vidar will be defeated mid-season and Bael will be the end boss, probably piloted by McGillis.
>>14947999
I don't think Gaelio/Vidar will ever defeat McGillis in combat, but executing him afterwards is definitely something most people could see him doing.
I think that Martian mine they reopened/discovered is going to be a treasure trove of Calamity wreckage and McGillis is going to secretly steal and restore the Bael for himself.
>>14948070
So all these cockteasing on the grimgerde in season 1 went to nothing then?
>>14948074
McGillis still can break his Grimgerde while fighting let's say Helmwige Linker (I'm pretty sure this Valkyrie belongs to Rustal).
>>14948083
Since his aide got the hand-me-down Schwalbe, it wouldn't be a surprise for him to get the Grimgerde if McGillis acquires a better MS.
>>14947920
IIRC the supplementary material said that 26 or 27 suits were known to have survived. The one Tekkadan dug out of the earth a couple of episodes ago is obviously an additional one and both the Barbatos and Gusion might not be counted towards that. After all, the Barbatos was just hidden away waiting for Maruba to sell it (which obviously never happened) and the Gusion was found in a debris zone by a bunch of pirates, who are obviously not going to advertise the fact that they have a Gundam.
>>14948088
This is also possible.
>>14947450
Because that is its default colors.
>>14948088
I'm pretty sure that McGillis needs to have a stronger MS in order to beat Vidar. That stronger MS has to be a Gundam which most likely is to be Bael.
>>14948045
> similar like antagonist mobile suit suppose to be
Zeong and RX-78, Zeta and the O, Alex and a Zaku, EZ-8 and the Apsulus, Barbatos and the Graze Ein, etc.
Tons of rival suits in Gundams are nowhere near similar to what the protagonist is using. Yeah, equal in overall power, but rarely equal in any major physical way. Best example of that would be the Reborns Gundam against the 00 Raiser, only similar in their twindrive systems.
>>14947911
What did the Gundams fight against that wrecked their shit to the extent that only 26 units remained?
>>14947954
>no, it was piloted by some old guy.
The codger could've at least made the Vual look easier on the eyes.
>>14948104
Since Gundam Vidar is known to be kimaris in disguise, this actually reminds me of Mr. Bushido whereby his Masurao and Susanowo is built upon a Flag with a mask covering the head of the Flag.
>>14948109
Like always - dooms day weapon.
>>14948109
Black History Turn A.
>>14946451
Confirm for docking
>>14948233
Literally a giant Alaya-Vijnana interface
>>14948114
Gaelio being Vidar is less obvious i feel until Matsukaze spoke.
Graham being Bushido was just laughable.
>>14947535
tech regressed since the calamity war. so it makes sense, in a way
>>14947575
on the bright side that means gali might live and not job
>>14948109
Some sort of energy-absorbing ELS bullshit.
That's why everything is kinetic; lasers only powered up the invaders.
>>14948114
So Vidas is Kimaris? is there a pic supporting the info? i though Vidas was created from the ground up and Mcgillis took Kimaris while leaving Gali to be recovered.
>>14947973
Bael might be McGillis' family's gundam.
He culdn't use it as Montag as that would have outed him as being Montag, and maybe he still can't claim ownership of it yet due to some political bullshit with daddy whorefucker.
>>14948359
McGillis wanted to kill Gaelio, probably thinking that Tekkadan would recover the Kimaris just as they had recovered the Gusion. They clearly didn't.
Besides the masked man clearly being Gaelio, the fact that Vidar is a Gundam at all, and not an Ars Goetia demon, is all the proof we need. The twin-reactor designs are limited to the gundam frames, and one argument for that is because getting the reactors to synchronize is not an easy feat. Vidar is, ultimately, less different from the Kimaris than the Rebake is from the Gusion; the suit is also loaded with Kimaris-esque features like the various thrusters and skirt armor. Arguably, the exposed thrusters on either sides of the legs are also a nod to Gaelio's Schwalbe Graze.
>>14948377
It is pretty much a third form for the Kimaris with an extra Ahab Reactor in its back to help disguise its Ahab waves, and prevent enemy units from identifying it as the Kimaris.
Also >>14945934
Is 00 better than Iron-Blooded Orphans?
>>14948648
Yeah.
>>14948648
I'd say 00 had a better S1, but IBO has a better S2 so far.
>>14947365
>>14947457
>>14947575
Those are very obviously the Grimgerde's swords, too.
>>14948776
>but IBO has a better S2 so far.
>>14948822
He's right you know.
IBO S2 thus far is Mafioso Shonen, which personally I like a fuckton more than 00 S2, which leaned far too heavily on its GN Particles and Quantum Brainwaves to the point of them simply being magic. Not to mention the whole "Muh understanding" shtick that, while not as bad as in Destiny or AGE, was still annoying.
>>14948822
By so far, I'm talking ep for ep. At this point in 00, Soma had just become Marie again. You know, the point where her character died until Sergei died; this is also where Al became extra useless.
Don't get me wrong, 00 S2 has its highlights, and that opening is probably one of my favorites in Gundam. Just the right ratio of exposition to action, and then Terminexia appears. The season had a great start, and then fails to do much until Ribbons shoots Setsuna and Tieria takes out Bring Stabbity. Aka, 7 more episodes.
>>14948985
I'd like this image more if it weren't for that foreshortening.
Shame too, since that booty is nice.
30 mins to go!
>>14949236
Tack another hour onto that.
>>14948114
>Masurao and Susanowo is built upon a Flag with a mask covering the head of the Flag.
It isn't, though, it's a GN-X. It just had the head of Daryl's OverFlag.
>>14948593
Vidar could be a stealth machine for anti MS combat just like the F-22 raptor which is designed for anti tsfs combat
>>14949238
stream is already down
>>14947855
Atra will pilot screencap this.
Dubs will prove
>>14949275
The frame isn't the same.
What is up with ibo having such sexy ms designs
>>14949238
is it after this golf show that's currently on?
>>14949427
i guess so, do you know of any links to the stream that does not lag?
>>14949436
Most of the decent ones were shut down. I just watch from a crappy MBS stream.
>>14949452
how much longer till IBO is on?
>>14949477
Now.
>>14948359
I saw the tri-age card for Vidar with the same serial number as Kimaris on twitter so it's pretty much confirmed.
>>14948985
At first glance it looked like she had a feather duster up her ass.
>>14948109
Each other. Sadly the war ended before they could decide the king of gundams.
>>14949480
Where can i stream it?
>>14949527
You just missed it.
>>14941516
There's no denying Lafter likes Akihiro. Azee offered to keep it a secret from Naze.
>>14949536
Which is just as well, what with all the buffering in a dialogue heavy episode. Better to wait for a high quality raw or subs.
>>14949547
>Naze
Naze a cuck. A KEK!
>>14949564
Wow, a rare instance where this phrase actually applies, since it was Naze who offered her Akihiro's dick in the first place.
>>14949569
To be fair, generally "Cucks" don't run a Harem/Space-Mafia-Crew/Halfway House where they get so much pussy that it doesn't really matter to them if some of the girls decide to seek monogamous companionship elsewhere.
They fucked
Lafta love Guts's dick
>>14949609
Iznario sexually abused McGillis
>>14949616
Consider this: it is a Gjallarhorn tradition to give your child to the other House heads as they come of age. Gaelio and Carta went through this too, they just liked it, the cocksluts.
McGillis married Almiria so young to spare her from this fate by being the only one to fuck her as her husband.
>>14946560
This looks really similar to the mechs from Gasaraki.
>>14949736
Seems like they divided the "Rival" to get the Bael and the Mobile Armor.
Ein inside Vidar confirmed?
>>14950021
More like parts of Ein's mech were used to make Vidar.
>>14950021
Possibly. Or he became one with what was left of it's AV system and that's what Vidar has installed. But Vidar seems insistent on staying close to his mech which makes me wonder...
>>14949648
Pretty sure they mentioned that Carta was under the Fareeds because her father is basically an invalid.
Now, the real question is why McGillis was adopted if there is no blood relation. Possibly a lost descendant of Agnika?
>vidar next week
