Yeah it would have been wild, but holy molyyYYY. That's not quite what I was expecting but that is 100% a Mazinkaiser++ version of Great Mazinger. I doubt the SRW folks would let the translators do it as Genie Emperor G but the tamashii store website would lead me to believe otherwise if it's gonna be MD style crabstick translation. I don't think MD did anything as bad as that. Maybe thats why they got the "better" translators for V they mentioned in the interview thing?

All we need now is Great Borot and Borotkaiser.

Borotkaiser is an extremely muscular and spiky redesign.

There are no stat changes compared to Boss Borot.

Definitely agree. That said, I look forward to TetsuyaBlade's new (spiky) ride. Hopefully, this one doesn't involve too much Getter Ray radiation.

That site is just machine-translated (it appears to be Google Translate, specifically); it points out its machine translation in the bottom right, though I missed it at first too. I doubt any translator has ever looked at it.

The name of the unit is, on the Japanese version of the page, Mazin Emperor G (マジンエンペラーG) and I would expect it to be called that in English.

Hell of a surprise unit, though.

Nah, nah, not no stat changes.

He has 10 extra HP and 100 extra armor.

In exchange, the ludicrously impractical armor (actually just stuck on top of the normal Borot) does the same horrible things to mobility and movement range that FA variants do to reals, but without the mobility and move to spare that reals have.

If we're feeling generous, have the Borotkaiser suit serve as ablative armor.

Yeah I was just thinking about how machine-y MD was and if it ends up the same as the tamashii store then welcome to hell Tetsuya in the Genie Emperor G. Genie Power. Full Power.

I didn't think MD was quite this automatic (though it was pretty bad), but I've got a preorder on V, so I guess if it Genie Emperor G I'll be one of the first to know.

Yeah I was just being goofy. Einst over ein makes me think someone somewhere in the process will go "Mazinger is a thing, it's Mazin not Majin/Genie"

Unless of course it turned out that Arado is actually saying Einst and its like the Irm "Big Service" thing where its actually accurate..

What a weird game. I'm excited for Great Mazinkaiser's cloak to turn into a giant sword blade.

I like the new original unit. It's got sort of a modern military look to it.

Also good to see my man Seabook back rocking the F91.

Its boxy aesthetic reminds me of Virtue Gundam, which is a big plus in my book.

The animations look about on the level of Z so I really want to know more system stuff. That one completely new real robot anime, does it have a number of pilots that will suggest how big platoons will be or anything?

edit: I wonder if the Huckbein will have its black hole engine collapse problems.

yeah. the picture's actually missing another pair of originals for some reason, specifically lenonjayce starlord and grace urigin

for an extra mindfuck, the pink haired girl in that picture is actually ring from the OG series.

all the ff original chars have their own image/theme songs that never got implemented and ring's is reaaaaal weird considering where she ended up as a character.

I'm just real glad it was the old Huckebein art. I like it more than its future evolutions, probably because it's not so busy (something Banpresto seems to have trouble with occasionally). Old Grungust is pretty aces too.

I can't say I was expecting either of these, but I expected the Huckebein less after all they've done to get rid of base-model Huckebeins in OG games.
