What the fuck was his problem? No seriously. Why was he such

>This guy is 41 years old
How in the hell. I thought it was just the women who got these anti-age genes.

That's Asians for you. Some people still think Hirohiro Araki is a vampire, for instance.

Trying to copy UreaBuchi, ain't he?

>>15420483
You can't prove he isn't

>>15420483

This idea that Araki is a vampire is retarded. He's clearly a Pillar Man.

IBO is just the culmination of many edgy tropes that are popular these days. If having a super happy MC was the norm then Mika would have been that.

>He wanted to punish Tekkadan, yet let Gjallarhorn survive scott-free?
Cause Nips have an awful culture

In this case, it's a good thing Gundam's usual formula is "screw the government, we can beat them/the enemy ourselves".

>>15421491
He needs a reveal about monsters actually being humans for that.

>Gundam's usual formula is "screw the government, we can beat them/the enemy ourselves".

There are other shows apart from Seed you know.

He was just following Tomino-Senpai's mantra of making Gundam what it truly is: "war is hell"

>>15423796
Well yes, 00 has them beat several governments. Besides, the governments tend to be ineffective at best.

>>15423796

Yea, like Zeta Gundam, ZZ, Victory Gundam, Gundam X, Gundam Wing, Gundam 00 and G-Reco.

>>15418991
i think the real question is why are you such a pussylord? are you such a manchild and so attached to your imaginary waifus and self-insert protagonists that you can't deal with a bittersweet ending?

War sucks, and sometimes (read: never) you can't just invent a 3rd party faction of pure good-guys who go around No-Killing all the baddies until everything is right in the world again

>>15418991
He wanted to make /m/'s ideal show, and he did

It just turned out that /m/ has shit taste

>>15423834
the show was, conceptually, pretty great. it's just when you get into the actual nitty gritty of the writing, animation, and directing, it was very weak, and subsequently it's a fucking chore to watch the entire thing.

thunderbolt is an example of similarly dark concepts but with actually good directing/writing/animation.

>>15423868

>Thunderbolt

>Good writing

Let's not get too far ahead of ourselves here.

>>15418991
He must of been molested as a child. He should of left IBO the fuck alone. It was all good and decent until the last quarter.

>>15418991
To me it seems like he got it in his head that he has to out-edge Mari Okada for some reason.

Whenever she handed in the script, he'd look at her and say: "This is fine. But can we add more pedophilia/nihilism/pointless sacrifices?"

>>15418991
Maybe he's the true Son of Tomino

Being Japanese.
