Does this deserve a chance to be taken seriously /m/? Both the Getter design and the manga
>>
>>15713489
The fuck do you mean taken seriously? This is a manga, read if you like, ignore if you don't, why would anyone need to take something like that seriously? Fucking autists, seriously why does getter attract so much shitposters these days?
>>
>>15713489
Your post doesn't deserve a chance to be taken seriously.
>>
>>15713489
It was merely a question referring to how much it deviates from Ken Ishikawa's work. It feels like it's trying too hard but it's nice to see more Getter material published. We're 20 chapters in, I was wondering if people found it good so far.
>>
>>15713557
Well, I'm liking it so far and I don't have problems with it being different from Ishikawa because I doubt they could replicate his story style.

What people should realize is that sooner or later they were going to start doing a bunch of new shit since they won't let it simply die, same with Mazinger, it will change and just shitting on it because its different is absolutely retarded
>>
>>15713560
I'm ready for more modern remakes of classic super robots. Iconic, old designs are fine and all, but modern shit is so much more interesting to look at.
>>
>>15713560
It just nags me how it's taking so many things from Evangelion. The fragment of the Emperor is only missing being mounted onto a cross. The whole shroud of "something bigger than we realize is happening" seems unnecessary. The series used to be above the insecurity to intrigue the viewer directly.

I did like NGE though, it's just that I don't think mixing things is such a great idea. The parallel universes open a lot of ways for the plot to expand though, I think I like were this is going when the chips are down. Getter 1's head is abysmal design, especially with it not having pupils drawn 90% of the time, it's not Arc ugly but still bad.
>>
>>15713489
I don't like how it's moving away from what Ishikawa intended and making a bigger threat than Emperor so that Emperor was actually a hero all along. Kind of cheapens the whole thing.

Yeah all the talk about manipulating Emperor at its earlier stages to kill said "god" downplays Getter a whole lot. I'm only hoping that they won't clearly try and one-up the whole thing but at least twist it further.

Put a Saotome from an alternate universe into the shoes of said higher existence and create a paradox with how the doctors are trying to kill each other through Emperor creating a paradox. Have Ryoma snap and claim everything for himself at some point and we've got ourselves a solid ending no?

I'd prefer leaving it about where Ishikawa was heading, with Getter being a higher power than humanity can manipulate but it's the best outcome of what we have in our hands i think.

Getter 2 and 3 are probably at their best as of now however, something that everybody forgets to mention.

Other than Dev G the designs reminded me of Rahxephon which I hate with a passion so... At least they all get beaten to death. Didn't see any claimed similarities with Getter units as the manga said either. I think they're not as good as they should be.

>>15716344
It doesn't need to be the strongest, but making it into a heroic tool rather than an opposing threat seems like it really goes against the ideas hammered in during Arc.
>>
>>15713557
I don't like the idea that they are simplifying what emperor is, but I do like the omniverse idea that fans have speculated for years is being addressed. Overall it's a fun read, certain ideas are good some are sloppy, I like the Linebarrel Getters (I think the shoulder pauldrons look fine), and it's the only Getter content we are getting so at least it's palatable unlike Dash/Darkness. My biggest gripe is for a monthly manga the chapters have very little content so sometimes it feels like the wheels are spinning in place.

I can see why some people might not like their Getter 1 but their Getter 2 and 3 designs are pretty top tier

Is this the Getter 3?
>>15713742
Cause I do like that.
>>
>>15716344
Seems to me they are more concerned with moving away from the idea that Getter Emperor was a bad end that humanity was being manipulated into by the getter rays.
>>
>>15718788
OP agrees, yes this is Getter 3. Getter 2 looks nice but it does miss a scissor like manipulator for an arm. A bare fist just doesn't look right opposed to that massive drill. You actually even get used to Getter 1 after a while, I'd prefer it's mouth to be permanently open to show the green gem inside, but overall it grows on you. Even Ishikawa has done worse, have you seen Getter Arc? My god that was ugly
>>
>>15718875
Might as well just disregard Arc completely then.
>>
>>15718875
Getter Emperor never seemed like a bad end to me. It was just the circle of life running its course, leading to the heat death of the universe. It is now that they present it as a bad end.
>>
>>15718885
Arc would've been a great continuation to the story imo, the way things were headed. I can't really praise its getter design, It was an eyesore
>>
>>15716131
I do, especially Go. What are you gonna do little man?
>>
>>15716344
What would be the problem with that? Getter Arc was a pleasure, even though unfinished, it solidified the Getter being overpowering and yet was right behind Getter Robo Go. It makes for a great plot point how said power chose humanity. One of the best parts of the saga, deal with it

The tree trunk legs don't look like they belong with those moderate arms and skinny waist.

Idk if I'd prefer Shin Getter's waist, that one was too simple, this seems overworked. They haven't gotten it just right yet, that part
>>
>>15718933
Besides the Gundam crotch plates, I don't really dislike any of the design elements, I just think the proportions look weird, like the size of each part was decided with no regards to it's neighboring parts. Even the Axe's pole seems too thick.
>>

>Getter Emperor never seemed like a bad end to me. It was just the circle of life running its course, leading to the heat death of the universe.

Intentionally causing the heat death of the universe sounds like a bad end to me.
>>
>>15718933
Is this post sarcastic? That design is horrendous.
>>
>>15718983
The heat end of the universe was thought irreversible and inevitable back when Ishikawa wrote the script. We didn't know about dark matter and that the universe expands. In that sense Getter merely accelerated an inevitable progress giving rise to mankind in the meantime. Sounds fine to me man

I don't care about canon since every story works on its own or can either be dependent on extended contributory, as long as its good and entertaining that's what matters. That being said, more Black Getter is always hype.

>>15718983
Who are you to judge a higher being of existence with simple things like human morality? Is it evil, good, or are you simply an ant trying to judge a god? Is it fine that it does what it does if it just happens to align with human morality and greatly benefits our species? These were the great questions that Arc asked and Devolution may unfortunately miss the mark on if they decide to follow an angle that Getter is good past a nebulous sense of oneness like it was in Go.

So is Emperor the evolution of Shin or Dragon?

Shin, Dragon became Getter Saint Dragon who is an envoy of Emperor that watches over Earth

It's bad because it fucks everyone over and saying it's just speeding up the progress is like saying you should kill yourself now because it's going to happen anyway. Though you should do the kill yourself part- because endorsing a false god, thinking what it's doing is "evolution", is bullshit.

Calm down there. Remember how Getter Emperor saved humanity in the future from total destruction? Humanity really had its existence extended in the overall history of things. Properly read all of the cannon before making edgy assumptions like that.

I know it was just a blatant toy ad, but I honestly think I was more interested in Dino Getter for the more unusual designs rather than just being "What if Gettter ____ was skinny?". That and it didn't seem like the story was trying to directly dig up Ishikawa's plot lines and continue with them.
>>
>>15722597
Did Getter 3 even get introduced in the web manga in the end?
>>
>>15713742
I can't stand this getter 3. What is even going on with those arms? The head is incredibly generic, it could be an Armored Core part. Why does it randomly have a Eva-01 midsection? It looks bad. The bulbous treads are sort of cool, but they are little too bloated. I think it would look better if the treads were more prominent. This is a visual downgrade from Shin-3 no matter how you look at it.

>>15713733
Admittedly, this design is probably the best out of the forms. The drill-shield is really good looking, with an inventive upper arm design. It's sort of hard to tell due to the pose, but the pauldrons look good. However, I still feel it is a weak design overall. The chestplate and crotch guard look very bad and clash with the other parts. Getter 2 looks more like a Klu Klux Klan member than ever before. It's hard to judge the obscured legs, right arm and what looks to be a backpack. Overall, I'm not a big fan.
>>
>>15722704
>Why does it randomly have a Eva-01 midsection?
The Linebarrels guy can't seem to move away from this, even when he's depicting large/heavy mecha. He even chose to make Getter 1 bulkier than usual and STILL went with that torso.

That's not the plot.

"A mysterious monster called the High Beast, has taken control of the regions of Eurasia and Africa. Japan has cut off from the mainland to protect itself from this threat. The daughter of a legendary mahjong player discovers that monsters attack whenever a mahjong piece is hit across the board. This allows humans to be separated from the battle and for mahjong players to effectively combat the monsters with robots controlled through mahjong moves."

I also think they could have picked a more intimidating dino for Getter 1. Getter 3 looks fun though. He really captures the look of the old dinosaur empire mecha.

That's precisely why it seems that Getter Emperor is a bad end. It's Lovecraftian, unfathomable, and humanity doesn't seem to get a choice in the matter. They are just getting swallowed up in the will the getter rays.
>>

>And the 'horns' aren't emphasized nearly enough.
Yeah I can agree, it looks better in the manga since its always low angle shots that put emphasis on the head but in 3D I can't help but notice how small the head is.

>Does this thing really not have a cape or wings?
No it does, when it activates Getter Wing it unfurls a cape behind it.

Sorry if I was rude there- but while Getter has the right to have his beliefs, he doesn't have the right to force it on others.

Plus that's why >>15725032 is right- nobody seems to have an choice in the matter. It's like Getter doesn't know what "free will" means.
>>
>>15728516
Yes.
>>
>>15729151
Does Getter even have beliefs? In my understanding any form of conscience Getter has shown up until now is a manifestation of its course to greater power and evolution. It looks to me like a force of nature rather than an entity. Going by Descartes "I think therefore I am", Getter isn't alive, it isn't self aware. In that sense it doesn't force its existence on others just like any inanimate object doesn't force itself on you.
