What's keeping Toei from producing a third season of Robot Girls Z?
>Make a show about cute girls wearing mecha costumes
>No merch came out from it
It's like Toei hates money

They really should sell chogokins of the characters already, namely Gai-chan.
>>15307504
I would gladly buy Chogokin Get-chan and Gai-chan. Isn't like they haven't done armored girls before

We need more stuff of the older girls like Protogetter
>>15307476
Same thing that have stopped many other mecha shows before: lack of solid merchandising strategies. In other words, toy companies aren't interested.
Girls have short lifespans. Just a difference of three years and they are now old grannies.
What happened with that online survey they did a while ago asking people to vote for what Robot Girl they'd like to see next? I wrote in Kill Jaguar.

My interest in Tiger Mask W is inexplicably waxing.

I recall there was going to be a new series by the same team that will also have cross promos with RGZ. I am not sure if that is actually going to be an anime or not.

you mean G-Kaizer?

It got a drama CD recently

Yup, that's the one. Seems to be some news on the 28th though, so I'm intrigued to see if it's as funny as RGZ.

I would prefer another season of RGZ but longer.
I know it's supposed to be a parody, but I think RGZ can work beyond that.
I just really want to see Mazinger and Getter with female leads without it being a parody like Angels and Otome. I guess there's Kei for Armageddon, but she was still overshadowed by the likes of Ryoma and co.
Something like Dancouga Nova would be cool.
>>15312214
That's what Angels is, though? It's not a wacky comedy like Otome or RGZ, it's played pretty much straight. Aside from having a bit too much fun with the boob weapons gimmick, but they kinda drop that after the first couple of volumes.
>>15312214
how in the absolute motherfuck can it work beyond that, it barely worked as that
the jokes were as lazy as can be and none of it had anything to do with any of the source material except in the most superficial way possible
also you haven't read mazinger angels
>>15312322
>>15312354
I didn't mean parody only in the jokey kind of way. I meant parody in that it didn't feel like a new story being told. There were many instances where it hearkened back to the original trilogy, even taking stuff from the anime.
FYI, I read both Angels and its sequel.
>how in the absolute motherfuck can it work beyond that,
How do magical girl shows work?
>>15312354
You're just upset that Jeeg-chan is better than Jeeg, Anonymous.
My dark eye Sahibgan senses it in your aura.

>How do magical girl shows work
why bother keep it going with the paper thin old robot gimmick though, clearly nobody gave a heck
>>15312374
jeeg-chan was literally the only good thing in the show
>>15312380
>why bother keep it going with the paper thin old robot gimmick though, clearly nobody gave a heck
As long as a show is good, nobody gave a heck about any of the themes Toei shit out in a series likes Super Sentai, Kamen Rider and Precure.
Kamen Rider had a fruit gimmick once. I really don't see how old robots is worse.
Or what about Kamen Rider Decade? It's build on top of previous shows.
>>15312388
ok so that makes the question even more valid, why bother?
It wasn't any good beyond the novelty of calling everybody 70s mech-chan and they already have precure literally printing money with no opposition
why try and force this as another magical girl show and making it even more generic by pulling out the "comedy" element
>>15312399
>why bother? why try and force this as another magical girl show
Because I want it. i want cute girls wearing frilly costumes based on 70s mecha.
>making it even more generic by pulling out the "comedy"
Comedy is original now?
