I just finished Bokurano and It was good. But I need to get the taste of it out of my mouth.
What are some good Reconstructive or lighthearted mecha series to watch that aren't TTGL. I've already seen that one.
>>15197342
Ganbaruger looks fun as hell from the Christmas ep
Gyrozetter starts out upbeat enough but I dunno if it keeps that up
Mazinkaiser
Patlabor
Shin Getter Robo vs Neo Getter Robo
Turn A Gundam
Space Adventure Cobra (not robots, but watch it now)
Pacific Rim
>>15197352
Thanks.
Are there any there where you would recommend the Manga over the Anime?
>>15197367
>>15197352
AND YES I KNOW PACIFIC RIM DOESN'T HAVE A MANGA I'VE SEEN THE MOVIE
>>15197342
You need Daiguard
>>15197367
I would say read Getter Robo Saga, but it's not as lighthearted.
Dai Guard
Fafner in the Azure
GaoGaiGar
Xabungle
King Gainer
Also don't say shit like Reconstrucive fag
>>15197342
>>15197408
seriously Dai Guard is like the anti bokurano, Ive yet to see a more optimistic show.
Victory Gundam, Evangelion, and Ideon.
On an actual note. I'd recommend: Dai-Guard, Eureka 7, Sousei no Gargantia, and Lagrange: The flower of Rin-ne are very light hearted. Also Nadesico.
>>15197446
It's what I want tho
don't be a faggo
>>15197475
I'll check it out
>>15197573
That's not the image I wanted
>>15197573
Reconstruction is a meme term for Secondaries and Casuals.
Using it indicates you are one or both of those things.
Hold yourself to a higher standard
>>15197446
>Fafner in the Azure
wut? I thought we were trying to get away from SUFFERING
>>15197577
Ok dunkfuck, what should I call it then?
It would be a good time to start on Full Metal Panic
>>15197584
Positive
Classic
Not depressing
Light heartted
Inspiring
>>15197609
Reconstructive doesn't necessarily have to be those things
It just means that the work understands what makes a genre work and what makes a genre interesting and includes those concepts and Ideas
>>15197627
Try "traditional" then. Or just don't use the adjective.
>>15197627
Then like the other Anon said, use fucking Traditional.
Reconstructive and Deconstruction are descriptors used by assholes who want to look smart because they're using a fancy word and think that an entire genre is easily defined when they've barely watched anything.
The fact that people can call Evangelion a "deconstruction" when it came out decades after Ideon, Zambot 3 and Votoms is stupid
Doamaiger
Roujin-Z
Dinagiga
Gunbuster
But especially Doamaiger.
>>15197762
>Gunbuster
Might as well reccomend 0080 at that point
>>15197797
Ends on an emotional but rather positive note imo.
>>15201799
stop trying to reconstruct everything, anon
>>15197342
>Reconstructive
Bar yourself from the gene-pool ASAP.
>>15197627
>It just means that the work understands what makes a genre work and what makes a genre interesting and includes those concepts and Ideas
Oddly enough, a deconstruction implies the same thing.
>Reconstruction
Ummm, don't you mean...REBUILD?
>>15202405
are you retarded.
>>15204812
>>15206309
Except exactly.
A deconstruction _requires_ an understanding of what makes a genre work and what it interesting. The only major difference between it and a "reconstruction" is basically a judgement call.
Zambot 3 concludes that war is terrible and hazardous to the soul even if it's fought with colorful super robots. Ideon has mankind's aggression leading to the Earth being bombarded by meteors--the cosmos themselves rejecting humanity.
Deconstructions say "this genre works in such and such a way and is interesting for such and such reasons" and follows it up with "and that's bad."
>>15207476
And that changes the final product in such a major way that it requires it's own genre qualifier, you fuckwit
>>15197342
>Bokurano and It was good
No it's not. Shit manga. Shit anime.
The anime director has the gall to call the manga is shit.
>>15207476
But a show can't be a deconstruction. Deconstruction is a tool of critics in examining a work.
