I wouldn't put it in even his top 5. Turn-A, Xabungle, Ideon, 0079 and Victory are far better in my opinion. I haven't seen Dunbine, Zambot 3 or Brain Powered either, all of which I've heard mixed things about but sound like good stuff in theory at least.

this show is 9.8/10

Because it's the culmination of a talented director's involvement with the franchise he created, picking up the themes of his previous works and reviewing them in the light of three decades of introspection and retrospection, while also working in themes pertinent to the modern world - all of which achieved while building a living, breathing world populated with living, breathing characters, each utterly human and allowing of sympathy even when they're shown to be in the wrong. In addition the art direction and animation is absolutely gorgeous, and the sound track fantastic.

Because /m/ is Tomino's cockwhore.

Seriously, things not perfect and even Tomino confirm it, yet its still pretty decent stuff with unique MS design, worldbuilding, and good fighting scene.

It's an OK show, not a masterpiece but enjoyable.

so what you're saying is.....

gundamrager is all of us, and none of us

I shall consider upon this

I'm surprised G-Reco fans don't join sites like ANN, AniDB, and MAL and just give G-Reco high scores. If the consensus is wrong, unite and fight it.

>>15075646

What wasn't Gundam about it?

>>15075294
>Can someone tell me why is G-Reco considered to be a masterpiece?

Sometimes I think people have a fucking binary brain. Either something is shit or is a masterpiece. Well the world doesn't work like that. G-Reco is a well thought out story but badly executed. At the best it's a mediocre anime. But it's no masterpiece. There are elements of excellence in it, but taken as a whole the anime fails to deliver its promise.

>>15075646
I don't think they will be able to make any notable difference.

>>15075660
The Gundam never does anything gundamy
Most underwealming ms in history until Duuuurrrr it actually the most OP Gundam in history that literally cleanses the world.

>>15075294
There's a few sperglords on /g/ who try to make it out as one, but in reality it's as flawed as any show in the franchise. Hell, the writing is so bad you could say it breaks new ground in that regard and Tomino himself has admitted that he messed up with the writing.

My guess as to why we have those sperglords trying to act as if there's nothing wrong with the writing my guess is that they're the same people who moaned for years on end about how mecha anime uses way too much CG and not enough hand animation. When G-Reco was teased they thought their prayers were about to be answered, but when the show turned out to have genuinely garbage writing they seem to have come to the conclusion that if they don't talk up the show enough Sunrise will never make another show with an animation budget as big as it had.

So all it really boils down to in my opinion is a bunch of people who really want shows with hand animation with production values as high as G-Reco trying to convince people to give Bandai more money so they'll make more shows with the same amount of old school hand animation.

>>15075633
>I like G Reco but Victory Gundam and Xabungle are still better

Xabungle definitely yes.
Victory better than G-Reco ? Ha ha ha ha ha ha. The only thing Victory has more than G-Reco are the number of episodes. The animation of Victory is shittier, the world building of Victory is shittier than G-Reco's. Only Uso and Marbet are nicely round characters. The rest of the cast is forgettable, including the martyr women of the day.

>>15075676

What's a Gundamy action it should have done then? Also, I'm pretty sure you either haven't watched the show or just forgot most of it in the meantime because the revelation that it cleansed the world didn't come out of nowhere and actually had foreshadowing, including the Turn-A doing some unusual stuff fight wise.

>>15075294
It's a masterpiece of troll bait. Every time it's mentioned, regardless of whether it's a positive or negative opinion, it's guaranteed replies. Those who like it treat those who don't as idiots and demand that they list the things they didn't like about the show so that these opinions can be corrected one at a time as if they were errors in a math formula that, if done correctly, must inexorably lead to a positive opinion of the show. You either love the show, or you're presumed to be stupid.

It is true, however, that a great deal of the complaints about the show were people being confused about what was going on. This is the principal point of contention that makes it truly magnificent trolling. To an unquantifiable extent, the fans are correct that the people who didn't like it usually arrived at that conclusion because they didn't understand it. The haters contend that this was the fault of the show being deliberately obtuse, so both sides of the argument feel 100% validated in their criticism of the other side.
>You shouldn't call me stupid just because I don't like your show.
>But you don't like it because you don't understand it, so you're stupid.
>The writer did not tell the story clearly, that's not my fault.
>I understood it just fine, you're just stupid.
And so on, and so on, ad nauseam.

>>15075527
This pic is very scary.

>>15075683
The entire show seems like it was just sunrise letting the old man do mostly whatever he wanted (aside from choosing the opening song, and licking Steer's VAs pussy)

I never really thought about grecos impact animation wise thpugh. I doubt greco will have any huge impact on current animation trends. Its biggest influence so far is the absolutely ridiculous number of off model time/money saving shots in ibo. Like a lot of the animators learned this neat production trick but havent learned how to best use/integrate it into the show

>>15075683
The show's writing is fine. It's okay if there's one single show that's Not For You. Not every show needs to be a tell-and-never-show exposition dump.

>>15075776
I like to think it was done in the spirit of G Gundam.

>>15075757

I think it's kind of funny people say this when the show actually does quite a bit of telling. One of the first things Bellri does is explain what the controls he's using do in relation to the big arms as he goes after Aida and the G-Self, even though there's no-one else around. It's not even necessary exposition, since what he's doing is so obvious and the actions he takes so minor on the whole, which makes it even more bizarre.

I don't think people found it confusing because there was too much showing, I think people found it confusing because often the telling was done only once in passing and not given any kind of import so people forgot about it because the show didn't seem like it wanted the viewer to give it any attention since it wasn't doing so itself.

>>15075813

G-Reco's art direction (including mechanical and character design), animation quality, and soundtrack were fantastic. It's just that the writing sounds like the demented ramblings of a senile old man.

You can argue that it's the far future and people would be expected to act and speak differently than they would now, but if your viewers find it difficult to understand or connect with anything that's going on, they're going to tune out. G-Reco had a lot of interesting concepts and ideas, but they were executed in a sort of stumbling and unsure fashion. Tomino himself admitted that things could have gone a lot better, but he just doesn't have the stamina to really bang something out anymore.

This is some great directing. I don't know if it's because Tomino has studied hong kong movies or if it's something he just does, but you'll notice that he does close up "pauses" (not really pauses, but lengthened cuts) on stuff like the G-self hand grabbing the other MS to guide the viewer and give you a real sense of what's going on. It reminds me a lot of the Hong Kong style of directing action.

The only thing missing is showing the same thing twice (both up close and at a distance), something that a lot of older Jackie Chan movies for instance did.

Nothing about the show was confusing if you just watched it and paid fucking attention.

I swear 99% of the problems most people had with this show was that it made them think and they couldn't zone out and watch pretty explosions and fights for half an hour.

Think about what? That Earth is not square? That line is completely unrelated to plot and thus it does not make events more confusing. But there is a reason that line became a meme.

>>15076229

The line made total sense if you, again, paid fucking attention. It's metaphorical, but people took it literally because basic critical thinking is a rare quality in people who watch anime, apparently.

Sure, friend. Now the only thing left is to find 2 g-reco fans who interpret this metaphor the same way. If I search archives I can probably make a huge collage of posts trying to explain it in any way possible. You may contribute to it by adding your own theory.
You talk so much about critical thinking but right now you're too stupid to understand a simple problem with this line everyone is complaining. Again, no one said it's confusing. But this metaphor is vague and pointless, it doesn't add anything to character's personality and doesn't help to explain ongoing events. It's pure informational garbage.

>>15076381

What, the earth is not square line?

It's really not such a big deal you know. It's just something Aida yells out because she thinks she has the advantage. There's probably two interpretation depending on what "square" usually reprents
>A square is a 2d object. Bellri is attacking from bellow Aida. Aida yells out "the world is now square", thinking she has the advantage in verticality
or
>the a "square" can be used to describe someone being regarded as dull, rigidly conventional, and out of touch with current trends. Since Bellri and Aida are yelling out their beliefs at each other (bellri being a traditionalist CU-cordian while Aida is a radical Amerian), Aida is claiming that Bellri's way of thinking is out of touch with reality and rigid.

Both interpretations fit the situation, which makes it sort of clever when you think about it.

So basically "its bad because I say so"

>>15076431
Going by that very same archive link(Which is incomplete and has every thread between early 2012 and mid 2015 nuked cause no one saved it from archive.moe) most agree the line means that you don't have to pick a side. If you actually searched the archives yourself beforehand or were even aware of what happened to them, you'd notice that.

Also in no way is every single line in a work going to be interpretted by viewers the same way, that's what subjectivity is and that's part of the reason why we've been having daily G-Reco shitpost threads since 2014 due to a combination of trolls, retards and people who just want to argue incessantly about nothing.

Just checked my link again and that's incorrect. There is literally one post agreeing with it in the same thread it was posted.
And I don't see what's your point of mentioning that part of archive is missing. This search is incomplete by itself, there were hundreds of discussions of this line even after mid 2015. I took part in shitton of them and no, there was never any consensus. That's why this line is nothing but a meme at this point. Any actual G-Reco fan on /m/ just ignores any mention of it because he knows it's nothing but baiting and trolling. The very fact that people seriously try to argue about it makes me believe that my opponents in this thread either don't visit /m/ often or are very new.

That perfectly describes the writing of Brain Powerd too lol.

Except for whatever reason, Reco has this bizarrely obsessive following in direct contrast to people who watched BP back in the day who mainly just shrugged off the nonsense and moved on to the next thing with little to say about it.

You realise both those conclusions arrive at the same point though? However you put it Bellri has not thought about the situation fully, which seeing as the show is about people challenging their views and not relying on preconceived notions makes a lot of sense.You can just take it differently like it is Bellri stuck in old ideas or Bellri has approached a new situation without grasping the new dimension to it.

Plus shouting vague a lot and saying multiple interpretations are bad makes you look silly, any work can have multiple. The difference is Greco actually supports itself so these interpretations are more valid.

Mask for example can be seen as someone living in a racist society, he is insulted by classmates and other soldiers, used as a test subject and this eventually drives him too far. Or he can be seen as a very privileged guy himself, he is top of his class, the jokes are rarely meant to actually keep him down but good spirited shittalk, he gets top of the range suits and his descent is as much him fueling his own rage at someone who never hated him. All the points are valid because the situations characters are put in are complex. Someone can be a guinea pig while also getting really good technology and you can make a fair argument for one or the other while knowing both these facts.

That is one of Greco's real strengths, multiple interpretations when they can be supported is a good thing.

>>15075294

I don't know about the rest of the show, but the sheer childlike glee all the characters exhibit is extremely off-putting. Like, it's especially disturbing with Bellri.

I'd say that was a big part of the strength. A lot look like they were how the designs had grown over so long, then possibly redone from different groups working off the blueprints

>>15078262

Considering those Rose-of-whatever blueprints are allegedly where a lot of the newer designs came from (e.g. the G units and everything else used by the Moon and Venus colonies), that actually makes sense.

That Apsalus-looking thing was probably developed from incomplete Apsalus blueprints from that data set and the G-IT Lab just filled in the gaps with the tech they had.

I think the biggest issue with G-Reco was it was 25 episodes. Had it been a 40 episode series, it would have been much better.

But because of the length, the pacing sucked and was more of a "blink and you'll miss it" type of series.

>>15078806

I dunno, I liked the pacing personally. It was refreshing that the show kept a high beat.

>>15078690
Literally never.
Not with the MC of that anime atleast.

>>15078592
Because ever since zeta gundam, bandai has provided funding to sunrise to create more things to turn into gunpla. This is a unique situation to gundam and transformers where the vast money isnt made from the licensing royalty fees of the show to produce licensed product. Rather the product is the gunpla or toy, and the show is just a really well funded commercial.

Brah, they only made 17.8 Million JPY in CD, DVD, Blu-Ray combined sales for all IPs which includes the money maker that is Love Live.

25.8 Million for GunPla and toys completely winning over media sales of multiple IPs is rather a big deal even if it's only 30%.

The story was okay. It wasn't some deep masterpiece but the story was not as bad or confusing as some people claim.

I feel like people expected something dark like Victory and were disappointed when G Reco turned out to be a fun space adventure.

>>15080708
The pacing was the only thing i disliked about G-reco. Other than that it still was better than AGE.

We don't know for sure yet, but, considering that Studio 1 has their hands full with Thunderbolt, it probably is.

>>15080352
I'm not even sure what are you trying to imply here.
Some people still believe that Bandai gives money to make new Gundams only to advertise new toys and nothing else. This business strategy could be viable in 80s and 90s, but not anymore. Modern big companies never focus only on one thing. Gundam is huge and since it's so overwhelmingly popular its name alone makes shitton of money out of everything it's attached to, be it toys, BDs, manga, posters, pachinko, licenses, events and shit. Saying that sponsors care mostly about toys would be definitely wrong.

It's really disturbing that even Tomino treats G-Reco as a could have been good show, but feels meh about it.

To that one G-Reco fag: most of the anti-G-Reco reporting came from non ANN sources, this one even points out that ANN didn't even report this event where Tomino said G-Reco takes place after Turn A.

>>15085999
The writing was absolute garbage, particularly, characters were written in a completely unrealistic way. They simply don't act like humans would. This has always been a problem with Tominos's Gundams. I don't think he understands humans very well. He's probably somewhere on the autism spectrum.

>>15093893
I don't think you understand how humans behave outside of anime/TV shows or whatever small hole you live in. Also try looking into Asian humor, it'll help with understanding how different people can be.

>The writing was absolute garbage
Only if you've never encountered regular humans, I have and people talk like this more than you'd like to believe.

>>15093870
>most of the anti-G-Reco reporting came from non ANN sources
Yes, they came from click-bait sources like Yaraon, which then ANN poorly translated them from. Also Tomino feels like that about every show he doesn't hate because he's a perfectionist, so your argument that not even him likes it is invalid.

>>15093870
>It's really disturbing that even Tomino treats G-Reco as a could have been good show, but feels meh about it.
He said he liked it just acknowledges that it could have been better. A show that Tomino absolutely disdains and shits on everyone who likes it is Victory Gundam.

I finally finished it.
There are some things I just can't get with how everyone was acting, granted this is my first Tomino show, sometimes they would aggressively start firing at each other, and then at times they would be completely trusty with the enemy. Everyone kept switching sides at a whim.

Didn't Cumpa and that other guy mention that they planted a nuke in the G-Self? I don't remember them ever taking it out let alone mention it once after that initial discussion.

Other than that, I think it was ok, the final battle just had to awkwardly end with the next scene showing Flaminia actually being a midget.

>>15097629
>granted this is my first Tomino show

>Didn't Cumpa and that other guy mention that they planted a nuke in the G-Self? I don't remember them ever taking it out let alone mention it once after that initial discussion.
Probably it was just to show of what Cumpa is capable of.

>>15075294
I liked the characters, mech design, animation, voice acting, pretty much everything about it except the actual overall story, primarily toward the end. It just got really bad. The only way it could ever become any kind of classic in the future is if they reworked the last third of the series a lot, making it way longer, which I don't see happening.

Also none of the events you mentioned are directly relevant today except maybe the >First African slaves arrived North America (1502) causing all the muh reparations that is causing the sour relations with black people and niggers everywhere. All the other stuff has mostly been forgotten and people have moved on. Even then, the first arrival wasn't really the problem. It was that we stopped slavery in 1865 and gave them human rights. I'm not going to say chattel slavery was good, there are many better forms of slavery. But due to the fact that it was stopped, followed by about 120 years of segregation is the main issue.

I'm not that guy, but you're pretty much saying "Nothing from 500 years ago is relevant except the things which are, actually, quite relevant indeed".

Even accepting that, you're ignoring tech which was completely foundational to the modern world, yet has been replaced, such as the navigation techniques of the 1500s. The guy mentioned Mercator projection, which has largely been superseded by this point, but the fact that ships could travel in straight lines in 1517 is clearly relevant to 2017.

>>15107062
I'm neither of the orignal two either. But the original point did specify no technology, as the Greco folks were shown to be able to easily use Turn-A tech, as the original question was why someone felt like it had nothing to do with the plot of Turn-A.

Some tech is still relevant such the MLB used by the G-Lucifer, but claiming that makes Turn-A directly relevant to Greco is like claiming Alcohol makes Baccano directly relevant to Durarara. It's a cameo, just like Isaac and Miria, the two are different stories.

>>15107083
Yeah, I agree. Having to exclude technology specifically in the question should be a huge indicator that the question is going to be a very flawed analogy, which sort of answers the question immediately.

>Major World Events in 1500's
» G-Reco (1570).

>>15106984
>only relevant event is an ethnic group that was badly treated and now causes tension
How could this be related to G-reco hmm

>>15107862
Ah yes, those delicious kuntalas that Loran and the moon princess ate during turn A. You fucking clown. Turn-A and G-reco are unrelated aside from Bandai's muh one timeline fetal alcohol syndrome idea.

Is it worth watching?

>>15116900
no, because G-Reco is the best gundam show

>>15075294
Solid 6/10 for me
Characters, mechas, animation and worldbuilding were all really well done, but the story was told really haphazardly
This show needed 10 more episodes.

>>15116664
Bakana that would require lalah to go beyond the time or somesuch nonsense

>>15116900
>Is it worth watching?

Yes with audio off. It's not like listening to the dialog will make any sense so.... just enjoy the animation. It's worth it.

>>15118388
Your "dialog makes no sense" meme is getting old

>>15118396
>Your "dialog makes no sense" meme is getting old

You cannot deny the truth. Tomino knows how to write meaningful dialog. He just didn't care to do it in G-Reco. Deal with it.

>>15075527
And it also has people taking shits in their mobile suits.

>>15118475
>And it also has people taking shits in their mobile suits

That was actually pretty cool. If you pass hours and hours in a mobile suit you're going to have to deal with human waste. Knights of Sidonia had a solution. But we never had that kind of solution in Gundam. So the next best thing was the multipurpose pilot seat.

>>15118487
1: I presumed that, before, it worked the same way that actual spacesuits handle waste.

2: Is that really something that needs to be detailed? Does it enhance the world that much to know "they install toilets into their mobile suits and use them while in flight"?

When watching the show, I figured "their technology looks advanced, but they haven't figured out how to handle waste in a more elegant manner, these people don't actually know what they're doing", but then they have space suits later on anyways.

I wanted to like G-Reco so badly. I love the music, the idea of the plot, even the art style and most of the mecha designs. So why the fuck do I hate it?

Wrong.
During Asemu's first battle in the AGE-1 he was using the AGE-1 Swordia wear which never appeared in the anime.

>>15122952
The animations in that foght were the same though, they just redrew the sword

>>15122952

Sorry, but they just redrew the robot's arms and legs over an existing fight.
