Just finished watching the 7 episodes of Mazinkaiser and fuck this shit.

I really hated it, REALLY, it was a bore to watch, there was nothing savable from this experience, no plot, no characters, nothing, even the music was subpar.

So /m/ what do you think about Mazinkaiser, what are the points that you like that I couldn't found nice?
>>
>>15173341
>What are the points that you like
I thought it was really fun, enjoyed the dynamic that the characters all had with each other, especially Boss and Kouji. Animation was gorgeous from start to end and made for some really cool action scenes.
Music was great, can't go wrong with Jam Project and Ichiro Mizuki, even the regular OST has some good shit.
Tetsuya was pretty cool in it as well, even if had to job a few times
>>
Now watch the skl
>>
>>15173341
puto!
>>
>>15173349
for me the regular OST was almost nonexistent, the insert song and the theme song was the only one I would notice, just because it was silent for the most of the time.

Tetsuya was EHH, I dont like him very much, for me he is really generic, Kouji and Fleed are way better MCs than him.

Also the VA of Kouji is really strange, it sounds like he is older than Tetsuya, maybe I am accustomed to Shin Mazinger Koji VA.

>>15173350
still need to watch the ankoku daishogun one...
>>
>>15173341
Good for you anon. Anything else you'd like to tell us?
>>
>>15173341
Dat last episode or two.
>>
>>15173524
>Brace for more anime like Mazinkaiser because the entire Mazinger fanbase shat on Shin so hard and made sure they never get anything similar to it again.

My dad always told me that if it sounds too good to be true, that's because it is. Shin Great never happening I could believe, because that sounds good but not too good to be true. Never getting another anime as bad as Shin Mazinger, that's just too good to be true.
>>
>>15173427
>Also the VA of Kouji is really strange, it sounds like he is older than Tetsuya, maybe I am accustomed to Shin Mazinger Koji VA.
He has a pretty unique voice. He was an old man by the time of Mazinkaiser, but he actually mostly keeps the same performance he had in the original 70s show, aside from his voice breaking with some attack cries. It probably helps he had voiced Kouji recently in several SRW games by that point.

The new voice in Shin Mazinger is fine, but it's just too generic anime hero. I know they wanted to distance themselves from the original anime, but if they couldn't come up with something better they should just have gone with some impersonator.

No fuck you.
>>
>>15173896
Meanwhile, Boss, Sayaka and Jun got new VAs for Mazinkaiser and there wasn't a fuss made, so it's funny how that works.

That being said, I hope Tomita and Shibata return to do Dr. Hell and Ashura's male half.
>>
I've tried several times to watch Mazinkaiser, but I always dropped it a couple of episodes in. I just didn't like it. I thought I didn't like Mazinger period until I saw Shin and loved it.

And yeah, Kouji being voiced by an old man because Japan can't handle voice actors changing was pretty fucking stupid.

Agreed completely. Mazinkaiser was a massive disappointment.

I was hoping Mazinkaiser would be over the top boss awesome like Getter Robo Armageddon, but no. It was just, meh, pretty much exactly the same as Great Mazinger. Like, it may as well have been made in the 70s.

Now Mazinkaiser SKL... that shit was fucking awesome.
>>
>>15173910
I honestly prefer their 'Kaiser VAs over their normal ones.
>>
>>15173958
How about the 'kaiser movie?
>>
>>15173958
>Now Mazinkaiser SKL... that shit was fucking awesome.
Opinion disregarded
>>
>>15173516

Meh. That's not very impressive. It's a weak, anemic orchestral version of Jam Project's "Fire Wars."

The same. Weak.

>>15173965

Opinions differ? Unheard of!

Your opinion is retarded? Unsurprising.
>>
>>15173978
There's such a thing as shit opinion and you liking SKL is that.
>>
>>15173910
>Meanwhile, Boss, Sayaka and Jun got new VAs for Mazinkaiser and there wasn't a fuss made, so it's funny how that works.
Sayaka and Jun had pretty generic voices in the first place, and Boss' new voice at least attempted to follow the style of his old one, although it was deeper.

I mean if you're going to use a recast to go for a very different direction, you better have a good reason. Look at the recasts in Lupin III for example, most of them attempted to follow their predecessors - the only big change was Zenigata, who got deeper and tougher voice, which happened alongside his character being portrayed as more competent and less of a joke than before.

Well, obviously I thought it was interesting before ten episodes in, and Kaiser wasn't interesting. Opinions, man. Mindblowing stuff.

Not them, but the narrator was a gift to mankind.

>>15174031

This x10,000

(is 10,000 the most /m/ number?)
>>
>>15173950
>wanting an awesome VA to reprise one of his most iconic and influential works is stupid
I've seen some shit opinions, but this is pretty bad.
>>
>>15174087
I think the most /m/ number has to have a round 100 in it. There's a hundred mecha with either Zero or 100/Hyaku in their name, so 100,000 is more /m/ than 10,000. It's got more zeroes and more hyakus.
>>
>>15173910
>Meanwhile, Boss, Sayaka and Jun got new VAs for Mazinkaiser and there wasn't a fuss made, so it's funny how that works.

Their voices never really stood out, at least in Sayaka and Jun's cases. Boss' tried to sound as close to the original as he could


>>15173950
>And yeah, Kouji being voiced by an old man because Japan can't handle voice actors changing was pretty fucking stupid.

Ishimaru could still do Kouji's voice pretty damn well when Mazinkaiser OVAs came out. It'd be one thing if he was dead, retired, or just didn't want to do the role again, but that wasn't the case.

It was an old man voicing a teenager, and it was obvious. And it sounded bad. To me, anyway.

OP here, the truth is that Mazinkaiser is REALLY bland, it is the most vanilla mazinger related thing that I ever saw.

There is almost no passion in this, not even from the writers, if you compare to shin or shin mazinger zero so, it is as hot blooded as a puddle in a table, waiting to be clean or evaporated.

holy shit somebody translated it at last.
if you guys don't mind i will try to put the video's spanish lyrics in english the best i can.

an eternal battle,
to put this to end right now
even a god, even a demon
i will surpass, together with my ally
Mazinkaiser!

under the sunlight, the imponent hero's figure
his powerful wind streams
destroy everything that touches
majin power!
flows in the warrior
now release it!
FINAL BLADE (KAISER!)

lighting start to fly
and all evil's existence will make dissapear!
a god but a demon too
with the power of justice
rise! kaiser!

after years sleeping
his burning fighting spirit wakes up
the despair he will never forget
his spirit full of pride

a demon's chest
a hero's emblem
now shoot it!
invencible beam! (kaiser!)

an eternal battle,
to put this to end right now
even a god, even a demon
i will surpass, together with my ally
Mazinkaiser!

with your strong fury, strike down!
don't ever let evil stand up again!
a god but a demon too
for the power of justice
rise! kaiser!

lighting start to fly
and all evil's existence will make dissapear!
a god but a demon too
with the power of justice
rise! kaiser!

mate, stop sperging because your favorite anime is complete shit, this is as useless as Roll and Lori in mazinkaiser.
>>
>>15174721
This board is for discussing. You aren't discussing anything. You're just shitposting. Discussing involves talking about specific aspects of a production. Discussion would something like talking about Mazinkaiser adapting 1970s designs into modern animation, not saying "this art is SHIT" or something else equally inane. So take your IT ISN'T TROLLING IT'S MUH OPINION and shove it up your ass.

>>15174721
>bashing kaiser while posting SMZ
I'll be the first to admit kaiser wasn't particularly good or even decent, but your taste is so shit that it makes me question your ability to judge quality.
>>
The fights in SKL were full as fuck and the gunkata was weak as shit.

Jun Kawagoe is just flat-out a bad director.
>>
>>15175591

Its almost like you didnt even watch SKL.

I enjoyed it. My only gripe is that when it slowed down it /really/ slowed down. But it was short lived.

Id give it a solid 8/10.
>>
>>15175993
Actually he did. There;s not a single memorable sequence throughout the entire OVA

I really have to get around to finishing the OVA.
My problem was that I had recently rewatched Armageddon. So 80% of the time I was just thinking "what would the Getter Team do here?", which just ruined experience for me.

>>15174721
Shin Mazinger Zero is edgy as hell on top of being dumb.
>>
>>15176039
>edgy

it doesnt matter if you say buzzwords, Shin have something that mazinkaiser doesnt, that is a story/characters, this solely is way better than the schlock that is Mazinkaiser.

this is why the Nagai manga version of both Great and Grendizer sucks and the Gosaku Oota doesn't.
>>
I liked the movie because the premise is cool

>For the love of god don't let Kouji get the robot or he'll kill us all

Then he gets Kaiser at the last minute and does kill them all by one shotting them and the movie ends

I think my main problem with it is my own fault because right before watching it I read through the mazinger manga and watched all of shin, meaning for some of the stories I had already seen them twice in a row. By the time they came around in mazinkaiser I couldn't feel the same hype since they were so fresh in my memory and I knew what was going to happen. For the parts that weren't just retreads of previous stuff I really enjoyed like the sword fight at the end.

Mazinkaiser has something Shin doesn't as well. In Mazinkaiser, the robot can move without being interrupted by the narrator or a flashback.

NO, you don't understand. It's got NOTHING. NO story. NO characters. NO plot. NO music. It's just an empty file that displays a white screen for 12 episodes. There was NO staff. It's the WORST.

Well, I can go walk into my kitchen without being interrupted too, would you prefer to watch me going there or not? The action being shown does not means it is good, or has any meaning or context that makes something good.

I'd enjoy watching you walk into the kitchen more than I would enjoy hearing:

>"There he goes! Just as his grandfather said, Anon is taking his first steps toward the kitchen doorway! His feet are pushing onto the ground!"
>"How could that Anon be actually going into the kitchen? When I unearthed the ancient Mycenaean Empire years ago, I could never have foreseen this happening! If he continues to move into the kitchen using the locomotion of his two feet, my plans will surely be ruined!

Anon wouldn't actually make it to the kitchen anyway because the Kurogane Five would have gotten there first.
