Wark Say posted:Like the vibe I got from the rewatch felt more like P.A. Works wanted to make like a Parks & Rec or The Office-sorta thing but had to compromise. That kind of explains why I bounced off of it a bit since I've never liked that sort of show. I watched the first episode and didn't *dislike* it but also felt like I'd seen all I wanted to watch and didn't keep going.

The Black Stones posted:It definitely holds up. The characters are still really interesting, and while the concept of being teleported to another world has been done to death, it’s not bogged down by trying to make it like a video game that almost all modern era shows try to do. Add on top of that a killer soundtrack by Yoko Kanno and you have a classic. speaking of kanno soundtracks from this era, i'm still pissed that brain powerd wasn't as good as it should have been. get back on your meds, tomino.

i think having some experimental failures/"failures" can make things interesting in terms of like, a whole career though mostly i just see the things i liked about shows like brain powerd and having those is enough for me even if they come with all the parts that don't work

I love the interview where one of the brain powerd writers says that he submitted a script, tomino loved it, praised it, called the writers wife to praise it and thank her And then when the episode aired it was so completely rewritten that the writer was pretty sure not a single line he wrote got used

Endorph posted:katsuyuki sumisawa wrote gundam wing itself which feels like an odd exclusion if you're mad about teardrop and glory of the losers ruining wing. he also wrote the dbz bardock special, which is probably one of the best written things to come out of that franchise. Okay, I'll concede that Tomino shouldn't have done that, and that the Bardock special was great. I've never seen Gundam Wing myself, so I can't really comment on it, but from what I've heard, Frozen Teardrop has a lot of dumb poo poo in it., like the Zero System being powered by a cat brain It makes me nervous that he's going to pull the same poo poo for Hanyo no Yashahime Willo567 fucked around with this message at 14:10 on Aug 4, 2020 |

chumbler posted:Only cats can truly comprehend all possible futures at once. Watch it when it turns out that HnY is a stealth prequel to Gundam Wing that reveals that humans went to colonize space after the Yokai invasions of 2020, and that the Gundams are powered by Shikon Jewel technology. Also, Buyo's brain powers the Zero System, and Towa actually attended St. Gabriel before they decided the boys looked too much like Colonel Sanders.

She's walking fine, or at least well enough to move a chair around? Vision problems I can understand though. Hard to VA if you can't see your script.

In one of the videos she explains that she got run over by a four-ton truck but didn't have any significant injuries to her body because 'I absorbed the full impact with my head'

TenementFunster posted:has anyone watched/rewatched Vision of Escaflowne lately? i haven’t seen it since 98-99 a was feeling nostalgic but don’t know if it would hold up I think it sort of falls apart in the last couple of episodes of course but it's still very impressive to me in 2020, so yeah I think it holds up because I don't think a lot of modern shows are able to do a lot of the above.
