Who was in the wrong here?

Gonna say Okada, but Nagai wanted villain protags anyway. IBO is worst gundam regardless.
>>15681239
Based on her other works? Okada. Not a fan of her writing, to be honest.
>>15681239
Nagai, faggot couldn't control Okada and had his own stupid iideas and ended up with characters that flip flop about what they actually want and literal plot device characters like Iok that serve no purpose except maybe a shitty punching bag
>>15681270
But I liked M3 and Evol!
>>15681295
>liking EVOL
>>15681295
M3 a shit. The plot is shallow, and the characters are flatter than your arse. Not to mention they are quite unlikable.
>>15681325
Are you sure you're talking about M3 and not Daimidaler?
>>15681325
Did you actually watch or are you just sputing random shit to see what sticks?
>>15681325
Next you're going to say something like "M3 fags are this delusional"

>Liking EVOL
... Why? I mean, it had some fun moments, but it at it's best it was just "okay". It's definitely a downgrade compared to the original Aquarion.
And, unlike The Woman Called Fujiko Mine, it didn't at least have cool visuals to fall back on.
The male is always in the wrong.

Sunrise, for asking a guy who's previously directional experience was solely about slice of life and melodrama animes to direct a gritty story of PMC child soldiers.
I mean, is not like there are no better choices for director for a Gundam series, over there.

Who would be your ideal Gundam director and writer combo?
>>15681387
>it was just "okay"
Your standards are that low
>>15681239
Nagai buried it.
Okada wanted harem shit, boys love and nothing big for the franchise. If it was just her work, we could have another shit harem gundam with many survivors at the end of S2, like S1. Bad, but still "watchable" in a forced some way.
However, Nagai fucked it even more, increasing the psycopathy of the group and making that slaughter at the end of S2. He grab the few positive things of S1 and turned into anarquia in S2, with a retarded ending.
Okada was very weak in character development, but Nagai was a real saboteur.
>>15681784
Ignore him, he's a actual fag who needs to kill himself.
>>15681779
Know zilch about directors, but for a writer, Reiko Chiba.
>>15681779
My ideal pair would be Izubuchi as director and Hiroshi Onogi as writer. Is the kind of experienced pair which I believe would delivery a solid war drama, without those kind of narrative exaggerations.
But for something like IBO, if we maintain Okada primary idea for the plot, I could think of at least four different names for better suited directors, like, Akitarou Daichi, Kazuyoshi Katayama, Nobuyoshi Habara, and even maybe Yutaka Uemura, who did a decent job in Youjo Senki.
