Depending on the movie it might either be closer to a compilation movie (with stuff changed around/new animation added) or a reimagining of the TV show's plot.

The Frontier movies are a reimaging of the plot. I say watch both, show and movies are both good.

And yeah, Frontier has a ton of musical montages. The AMVs are official!

I should watch Overman King Gainer. Tomino and Okouchi collaborating sounds like it could be crazy.

That's how I did it, yeah. Shows then movies.

In Frontier when "Lion" starts playing I get excited. Love that song.

I remain continuously astonished that Bravern is as sound and coherent and GOOD a series as it is given it completely changes tones and genres every 3-6 minutes. It is such a ride every week.

It has waterboarding as a serious, traumatizing incident for the hero, then it turns it into a running gag. Not something I've seen before.

It's a mecha thread, they can talk about a gundam show here too. Just like I'm gonna comment on how good Bravern's cgi mecha look and how well they're integrated into scenes with regular 2D animation since 3D mechas often look super janky in composite shots.

That's kind of funny too since it'd be perfectly fitting for the show for Bravern and the other alien robots to look as if they were from a completely different show.

Considering they carved out an exception for those two in Japan specifically I'm going to say no. Harmony Gold claims a stranglehold on those two properties specifically and won't let Big West use them.

I want verification that we're actually getting it in the USA. Everything I've seen says it's actually Star, which is a part of D+ for most of the world, but not USA or Latin America.

Bravern's definitely settled on the super robot side of the equation and lost the fun mood whiplashes from early season but it still gets some bits here and there that remind us that we're working with two sets of rules (and the super robot side is fun on its own). Turns out fighting your rival in the middle of enemy territory, knowing you still have two boss-level enemies to beat, is a loving terrible idea, and even moreso is lowering your guard afterwards. Bravern getting killed like that was a moment of stupidity that got badly punished.

I'm not that familiar with Obari generally, but I'm pretty sure Burn Bravern's design is very similar to several other Obari designs and someone here will probably be knowledgeable enough to confirm or deny that. I watched Gravion donkey's years ago, and feel like he used a similar design there, which a quick look online tells me is probably Sol Gravion from season 2. It has the same over the shoulder twin cannons, wider shoulders, bulked up calves etc. as the Burn Dragon gattai gives Bravern. I'm almost sure I've seen other designs from him that have a similar design though.

unlikely, but would anyone know where I can get one of these:


I saw it on this anime thrift shop site but someone bought it before I could, and there's not a single other one available. none on ebay either. seems it's from a line called "eye up" but I can't find one for sale anywhere.
