Bimmi posted:Best thing about the ZZ is that it's pretty much acknowledged in its own show as being an overdesigned lovely kludge of a mobile suit which is only effective due to sheer brute power and having a preternaturally talented psychic murder artist for a pilot. And that's why the ZZ owns.

The ZZ is beautiful and doesn't have to take your poo poo.  Also OST 2 is out and god drat I have no idea how they plan on using all of these songs in the like two remaining episodes. Talk about a wasted soundtrack. Track 5 has flamenco!

Here's the theme for Tryon 3, by the way. I'm pretty sure we heard all of twenty seconds of it.  Naniwa is an old name for Osaka. EDIT: Oh no wait that's right, they played it for the whole gattai sequence. We got about half of it. BlitzBlast fucked around with this message at 03:09 on Mar 24, 2015 |

That's a cool theme for the coolest Gunpla. ...This really should be Tryon-3: The Series, instead of JIGEN HAOH RYUUU the series. The more time passes, the more I'm sure of this.

Having listened to OST 2, I have to wonder if in addition to the usual artwork touchups that happen for the DVD/Blu-Ray versions, are they also going to replace the music in the second half, which a lot came from season 1, with stuff from the second OST as well? Like others have mentioned, if anything from the second OST has been played, it really was very brief and unless you painstakingly went back and listened to the second half of the show, you'd never know it got played. That said, I do like some of the stuff from the other composer, Asami Tachibana. I guess Yuuki Hayashi needed some help with music this time or something.

Hayashi has worked with Tachibana on basically all of his projects prior to BF. I wouldn't be surprised if he requested their presence. EDIT: Also I may as well upload the stuff Yuly was in because the rap is always the best part of any given BF OST. I'm pretty sure neither of them have shown up yet though, so spoilers. The Summer Gundaba has begun. Buppigan (I have no idea what it's supposed to translate to. Also this is probably going to be the song for the final clash.)

Yuuma vs Adou and Shia vs Fumina were pretty great, especially Yuuma vs Adou. Sekai vs Wilfrid was pretty predictable/forgettable because they couldn't seem to come up with a way to have them fight besides both of them cycling their super modes up and ramming into each other. All in all not as bad as it could have been. FrankenBurning was pretty awesome looking too. Most hilarious moment of the episode was Shia and Fumina lampshading "Hey wouldn't this have been even more awesome 1v1?" Oh and they destroyed the Earth.

If I had one word for this episode, it would be "meh". There was a surprising amount of stock footage this episode. I figured it would be for the sequence at the end, but that wasn't really impressive enough to justify all that budget saving. The fights were okay I guess, but why, exactly, did everyone decide to fire a beam at the same point? Also I guess Sekai wins not only because Sei built his gunpla, but because Junya taught him exactly what he needed to do beforehand to neutralize Wilfred's new ace in the hole. The Adou vs Yuuma and Shia vs Fumina scenes were really forced, but they were still better than Sekai vs Wilfrid which was just maximum . Sekai didn't even bust out his actual super move either. Try Burning Repair vs Transient Repair started off nice, but quickly turned into of all things a dragon vs tiger tackling match. I guess it was cool the earth got destroyed though. Oh, and Sei!I wondered how I would feel about an episode where I didn't care about either team. I guess I know now.

linall posted:Who has a time limit on a final? Franken Tri was at least appropriately hideous though. Why would you unbalance high-power booster engines like that though? I'm surprised it didn't just arc off into the ground at Mach-2. The Sekai/Wilfred fight was pretty goddamn dull (I really hate Bit weapons like that, because it just devolves into "the Bit hits out of nowhere because the script says so". Saga's ones are okay, because they're more like homing missiles and come in a single linear swarm for the most part), but I actually really enjoyed the two-on-two fight with Fumina and Yuuma taking on Saga and Shia. For once it actually seemed like they were old friends having fun, instead of just sidekicks to Sekai winning the day. It was also a really good brutal fight to the bitter end. Funny how they just dropped the downside to Assimilation completely at the end though, what with the Try Burning's arm right through by Wilfred's spear. Not to mention the Try Burning getting turned to melty plastic at the very end. Also are they seriously going to just run a 25-minute Gunpla advertisement next week? I am going to laugh my rear end off if it turns out that what all the show's time and money has been saved for.

It is funny how Fumina and Yuuma actually sound and look more hot-blooded than Sekai. Pseudo New-Type bullshit between people using plastic toys to punch each other is the best  Neddy Seagoon posted:Also are they seriously going to just run a 25-minute Gunpla advertisement next week?

I didn't mind the tiger vs. phoenix fight. It at least makes sense, the end game of Plavsky particle fuckery is just making giant Plavksy particles monsters around your gunpla. Are they really gonna announce new Gunpla in the next episode? Like, in-universe announce things for real life?

I enjoyed the earlier parts of the battle. People planned around each other and tried to work out ideas to work as a team. Characters supported each other in battle instead of instantly breaking off into 1v1 fights. You saw Shia saving Saga and Wilfried working to support her afterwards. The 'everyone uses their beams at the same time' thing was pretty silly but whatevs. The second part of the fight... well, Saga and Shia vs Fumina and Yuuma was pretty good. It was really nice to see Fumina and Yuuma actually acting like friends and allies and 2v2 allowed them to kind of split off into 1v1 without it feeling entirely that way. Pretty disappointing Winning RG Mode never did anything but Winning Beam but I guess that is due to animation pain-in-the-rear end. Saga eating a chest full of missiles was pretty good too. Sekai vs Wilfred was more boring. It was just them ramming themselves into each other over and over. They overused the glowy-lines-clashing thing and it had no real impact. The fight inside the colony remains was better since they were at least impacting one another but even there they did like "Oh, I recognize that technique" and then Sekai glowed and somehow beat it. Assimilation was a giant wet fart of a plot point that never went anywhere and barely seemed to matter in the final fight. (Sekai closed his eye briefly I guess?) and in general it just seemed like it was a battle of who glowed harder, which stands out even more next to his partners being absurdly hot-blooded. Tiger vs Phoenix was kind of fun and I guess blowing up a chunk of the Earth is the only way to beat blowing up the moon. I think it's hard to get excited about what was otherwise a fairly good fight because like... it didn't feel earned or really justified? Their opponents were no less dedicated and talented than they were, nor less honorable, nor... really there was no real why I should care either from a character development standpoint or a plot standpoint who won this fight. Sekai is the protagonist so I guess I wanted him to win because he's the protagonist?

The end of the Shia vs. Fumina fight just cemented my belief that their entire rivalry makes zero sense as it is and would have worked prefectly fine if Shia had befriended Fumina instead of randomly going off after Sekai. It's weird that they never had them interact for more than a second. And yeah, the 2v2 was the best part of the episode.

So, the fight itself had lots of nice moments, animation, touches, etc. It's still kinda soured by the fact the audience hasn't actually been sold on why Team Try Fighters should be there and why we should be rooting for them, though. Also the Newtype moment between Shia and Fumina was funny for a bunch of reasons. Including tears apparently substituting for plavsky particles?

Why does Winning even have a real mode? She consistently transforms just to spam Winning Beam (which was hilarious this episode, at least) and then become useless. The writers honestly couldn't think of anything else, so they had to throw in a time-out to repeat the end of the first season of BF? I don't even know why I'm surprised any more.
