Man, Kawamori sure does like his legos.

I dont care what anyone says. Kawamori is not a hack and is still one of the better creators in the industry.

>>15241548
Kawamori was a mistake

he's a meh writer but a fantastic mechanical designer.

>>15241548
Oh please, he's far less of a hack than Anno.

>>15242011
Is he? His Delta designs were boring and the Aquarions were pig disgusting.

But the Sv.262 is amazing

>make a robot out of SAAB
It's like, SAAB Draken with minimal changes. Looks cool, it's still Draken though.

>>15242339
but Kawamori made his name off of an F-14 that could transform.

>>15242011

I wish we'd get designs this cool for mainline Macross. Tired as fuck of the same rail thin clown robots.

>>15243419
Fat chance since these designs were from around 25 years ago.

Might as well take this opportunity to repost his Anime Expo 2016 panel

Yeah but in the context of Macross "still Draken though" is a major leap in design diversity.

>>15242322
You dissin' Solar Getter?

>>15240080
It's funny

>>15243819
Do you guys think we will get a chance in seeing new VF proportions, deviating from the VF-25-31 slim designs? i think it is time for another new generation of fighters, with the VF-25 being a grunt fighter next.

>>15244093
The Draken's Battroid mode does nothing to stand out from previous VF's since Zero.

What is this? Is it going to be about his next anime or the next macross?

>>15247833
It's his next Arjuna.

>>15247844
>It's his next Arjuna.
So the next thinking man's Macross?

>>15247806
but its plane mode is extremely unique.
its the first delta wing VF in the seriest.

Isn't obvious?

Kawamori original Delta plan didn't include any enemy antagonistic force.

I bet he wanted to do a Love Live Idol School Project with Robots.

>>15240080
I love that look

>>15242168

that's not exactly a high bar

>>15242322
He basically lost his mind in the 2000s but briefly regained it for some guest designs in Armored Core FA then lost his mind forever. 90s and early 2000s are his heyday

>not a single leg joke

I don't know whether I should be proud or ashamed.

>>15240080
He was kind of a creative retard once. Now he's just a retard.
