Why do you pretend to like his genre of mecha?

Friendly reminder TTGL did it better.

>>15844054
That's some nice art, thanks OP.

Who's pretending? It's fun.

I need a better version of that pic, OP
Also the artist's name

>>15844134
>Also the artist's name
It's literally signed Go Nagai on the art.

>>15844054

A better question is why you think people will remember your opinion on mecha anymore than anyone else. You're sadly mistaken if you think you have anything negative to say that we haven't heard before. Although for some reason you probably think you do.

>>15844054
I don't pretend.

>>15844060
It was okay.

>>15844060
How ? I thought it just copied every super robot cliche out there.

>>15844169
Don't question him, man, that would mean he has to bring up arguments.

>>15844176
I'm also relatively certain Gloizer X was done by Ota.

I could be wrong though.

It's labor day. man. take some time off and relax

People pretend to like toku and super robo to seem "cultured" and like they have good taste, but really they're watching awful childrens shows fr the 70s
It's really just a posturing thing people who aren't actually into anime do, they rattle off the names of shows like these because they think it makes them special

>>15844798
You literally described the Gundam fanbase

>>15844803
Well that too

>>15844176
>>15844211
there's some tiny text near getter's face that says
>© Nagai Go/Dynamic Planning
>© Nagai Go, Ishikawa Ken/Dynamic Planning
i don't know why ota isn't also listed

>>15844807
Well, you're also assuming that people somehow watch mecha shows from the 70s here other than Gundam, and you would be wrong.

When people talk about Nagai anime, they're usually referring to one the more recent reboots or spinoffs.

>tfw none of my friends are into mech
>tfw this shitty gundambabbie infested hole is the best place I have to talk about it

>>15844820
Doesn't help that pretty much every Getter and Mazinger thread we have nowadays (and that's not the most often, mind you) gets derailed by shitposters and edgy contrarians.

>>15844848
>Contrarian
If you mean people posting how the majority of mech shows including Getter et al are shit then they're right

>>15844850
>majority
All mecha shows are shit

>>15844868
%90 of mecha shows is shitty toy commercials and/or garbage about how totes cool and awesome piloting a mech would be.
However the actually good shows are around

>>15844872
>However the actually good shows are around
Don't get ahead of yourself, Pedro.

Gundam, Macross, Votoms are equally trash and you know it. They are shitty toy commercials that literally no one else should watch, except manchildren like yourself.

>>15844872
Giant robot cartoons are for kids. You are not special for liking one over the other. You're just a loser. Get over it.

>>15844883
But anon you're projecting
Also Macross is actually a good show unlike the toy commercials the children here watch

>>15844892
T. Never seen a good mech show
Its ok anon you can keep watching gundam with all the other babies

>>15844054
People arent pretending to have shit take, they simply do. Look at the way most people dress. They lack a basic understanding of aesthetics. Its the same with mecha fans, superrobo autists simply have no taste and are children in more than just a single way.

>>15844980
Most of this is right but >look at the eay people dress
You either unironically think fedoras are cool or you think japanese streetwear le anti social social club garbage looks good and "aesthetic"

>>15844169

Oh, and you happen to know every super robot cliche out there by heart? I guess enjoying anything would be impossible with that much of a weight.

>>15844054
Because we are go good at pretending to like it that we end up actually liking it

>>15844054
I only watch REAL robot shows like Flag and Garasaki because I am a MATURE man with MATURE tastes

>>15844893
>>15844896
>>15844872
Is it bad if I can't tell if this guy's joking or not?

>>15845178
I unironically would prefer codename:v over this faggot.

>>15844893
>Also Macross is actually a good show
Macross is dumb children commercial for kids who like shitty songs

>>15845458
Yeah, I know right ? It's no match for your sophisticated mature taste.
I know you're shitposting and all, but don't you think your time would be better spent discussing shows that you like ? You're just wasting your time in something that you're going to regret later, believe me, I used to be a shitposter too.

So if every old mech show is trash what do you consider good?
Probably not Eva, since it's hated on this board. So what? Seed? 00? A/Z? Valvrave?
2000s mech wish it could be half as good as even the worst of Tomino or Nagai.

>>15845538
Judging by this thread it's
>All mecha is trash

Also judging by this thread
>/m/ doesn't watch mecha and pretends to like it

I'm not certain how this works out. And you'll notice the

crowd never gives an example of "good" anime.

It's just a shitposting kafka trap.

>>15845570
>a shitposting kafka trap.
in the dark future cyberhell your shitposts are tattooed onto your body

>>15845538
Nagai is irrelevant in this discussion. He's not a director. The person responsible for Mazinger Z and other old mecha is Tomoharu Katsumata and a bunch of episode directors and writers.

>>15845526
No. Macross is fucking shite, and I'm rather offended by its taste in music.

>All these triggered gundambabbies
Too good

>>15844054
Super robots are to mechs what poetry is to literature.

>>15846607
No anon that is blatantly wrong
Super robot and gundam are to mech what a childrens book for babies is to high literature

I only watch mature cartoons for mature people such as myself, like Votoms and LOTGH

>>15846620
There is literally nothing wrong with watching mature anime you fucking gundambabbie

>>15846620
>Votoms
>mature
No disrespect to Takahashi, but I can easily find more approachable themes in Getter Robo and Mazinger than in Votoms

Votoms is literally 52 episodes of vwiiiiiiiiii and fake symbolism.

I find it ludicrous that this is what people think is mature.

>>15846664
>Getter Robo and Mazinger more mature than Votoms
>fake symbolism
I couldn't shitpost this hard if I tried

>>15846675
Votoms isn't mature though. Neither are Maiznger and Getter.

Gritty=/=mature

>>15846686
Gritty doesn't equal mature
But Votoms is
However considering you think gundam is good what you say doesn't matter

>>15846614

>>15846697

Faggots. Stop the needless elitism.

>>15846692
>>15846675
Okay. What are the themes that Votoms touched on that you thought were mature? I'm waiting.

Also, I didn't call Mazinger and Getter mature you dumb motherfucker. I said they have more approachable themes, in other words, they're more for everyone than some autistic nerd jerking off in the background to Takahashi's nationalist fantasy.

And I say this as someone who enjoyed the show a lot, but let's not pretend it has anything intellectually stimulating going on for it.

>>15846706
>thinking mecha is good

You're the joke here, Pedro. No such thing as real or super. It's all dumb fictional robots for children.

>>15846711
Fucking hell anon are you literally diagnosed with autism

>>15846717
T. Only watched gundam so thinks the genre is bad

>>15846620
I hope you're joking, and don't actually find logh mature. It's a nice Japanese space fantasy, but come on, the whole thing is terribly stupid in hindsight. The politics are naive, the characters appear to be more stupid than they were presented to be, and the space battles are just as fantastical as they are dumb.

Tell me more about that autism of yours, Marc.

At least I don't go around pretending that children cartoons involving giant robots have more to say about life than actual reality.

>>15846743
Good ones do anon, but you wouldn't know about a good mech show

>>15846741
Gundam is just as stupid, and Tomino never held an actual job. it's not any better.

>>15846746
A show can be good, doesn't mean it's mature, or intellectually stimulating. These are giant robot cartoons we're talking about here, retard.

>>15846748
>Never held an actual job
>You cannot write a good show if you have never had a job
Underage go

>>15846757
Correct. The life experiences you put into your art is what makes it good. All Tomino did was make giant robot cartoons all his life, and his work reflect the ignorance of the themes he tried to portray. Like many other nips, they live in their own bubble of alternate reality. It's even worse given he never held a real job.

>>15844798
This is the kind of shitty /a/ opinion that infests /m/ nowadays. Yessir, all shows from the 70s are just irredeemable childrens' trash. Nevermind the fact that if it weren't for many of the 70s shows you despise, your "mature" "modern" anime would never come to exist. The hubris of you fucks is laughable; the fact that you think TV entertainment has to be high-brow proves you are the very thing you argue against.

I bet you watch retarded shit like Welcome to the NHK while jacking off to your own awesome intelligence, when in reality you're a depressed, edgy loser who thinks making bleak statements and tossing in haphazard symbolism is DEEP, BRO.

Fuck off. Entertainment is entertainment, if it looks cool and has action, it's worth watching. Life is hard enough without teenagers like you barging in with your retarded quips and snarky online anime reviews, telling us that we should be "more realistic", "smarter", and "grittier".

I'll take a colorful, action-packed, giant mechanical romp any day over your solipsistic wannabe garbage. Childrens' show or not, it'll be better than a manchildren's show peddled by the likes of you.

>>15846607
What?

>>15846738
>Super and Real genres aren't a thing
I know you're a shitposter, but this is actually true. The terms existed to sell toys to children and manchildren, respectively. Autismos only use them in their o b s e s s i v e need to categorize everything, when using conventional genres while recognizing that giant robots exist in the show would better suffice.

I'm so glad this thread was made. It proves that all the autistic weebs that browse this board realize their entire hobby is stupid manchild material made to sell toys and promote the delusional childish mentality of those pussy Nips. The yellow-skinned midgets got rekt by our two atomic fists of God and created a whole subgenre of wish fulfillment giant metal men to cope with it. Only a weeb living in his mother's basement would try to join such a pathetic excuse for a hobby.

Try reading some real science fiction for a change instead of jerking off to your rainbow colored action figures.

>>15844054
>Why do you pretend to like his genre of mecha?

What genre ? You do understand that there is no such thing as a real robot and super robot genre. There are only robots beating the crap out of other robots. And since Great Mazinger beats the crap out of anything like no one else does he's a fucking hero. Mazinger, Grendizer and Getter are pussies compared to the Great One.

>>15846819
>real science fiction
>a book sophomores in high school read

You almost got me.

>>15846819
Don't think I forgot about you, autistic nerd who thinks he's cool because he read some books about fictional pseudoscience.

The science fiction genre is just as babby as the mechs shit you shit on. How about you go do some real science instead of wasting your time with pseudo intellectual garbage written by blowhards seeking validation from other like minded pedestrian garbage heap, you sad pathetic fuck.

>>15846778
This a thousand times. Man children garbage needs to be thrown out.

>>15846819
You know, you're partially right. But the fact that you can type something like that only proves how intimately acquainted you are with this hobby. You are describing yourself, and roleplaying with over the top jingoism doesn't conceal that.

It also doesn't change the fact that I've read far more "real" science fiction than you have, lightweight.

It certainly isn't immature if that's what you're implying. Just because you don't enjoy something doesn't mean you have to discredit it.

I think a lot of western literature is hot, steaming crap but I'm not gonna sit here and pretend it's poorly-written just because I wasn't entertained.

>>15846983
I don't, because I'm already seeing a return to tube.

>>15846988

Except it is. It's just that you deluded yourself into thinking it isn't, because you somehow think that politics and space make something mature by default.

>>15846997
When did I say that? Calm down and stop putting words into people's mouths. I never said it was 'deep' or 'super mature' as much as you'd like me to. Why are you so angry? Nobody here is trying to hurt you.

Yes. You only think LOGH is good because it lets off a very fake image of sophistication. E7 does not and is actually incredibly more profound and subtle.
Thematically it is the most important piece of ecological fiction. LOGH is just 'muh deep political intrigue'.
