I thought IBO’s second season OP was as better than S1, but tbh both are pretty mediocre compared to the first ending.

I will stand by Resolution and Century Color as the superior openings.

If someone says it one more time I'm having Florina show up as a corpse. I'm not even kidding, I was pissed off with people doing that shit back in 2010, and I'm not dealing with it now in 2016.
Well, we concluded Origin today and I put her on to the Origin manga so she can read. Wound up using Kast, which was awful, because it wouldn't capture audio, so I had to point my mic at my computer to broadcast the audio from my pc, into my mic.

Next is likely Zeta, since ya know, 0083 sucks, 08th MS team sucks, while she's like "Wow Char is a loving murderer" she still wants to have his babies so yeah, Quattro time.

It's super weird. It works... but it's 30 FPS, and more importantly, I can't make it go full screen or like... gently caress with MPC in any way, or it crashes.

Sure, but part of that growing up involved cosplaying as Char for a while to understand him. I've seen him called A Char on multiple occasions, including in this thread.

Use VLC instead. It works 100% perfectly with discord screen sharing, whereas MPC shits the bed and dies in a fire if you try.

IBO? Survivor is at the very least not a shoe-in compared to Raise Your Flag. And V Gundam is a toss-up for me. And I'm face blind to original SEED openings and can't tell them apart so I tend to think of them as all about the same quality.

If nothing else the way IBO uses their openings in cold opens or otherwise interspersed with action in pivotal episodes is just awesome.

You couldn't pay me to prefer Zeta's second opening. God drat that first opening slaps in the goofiest 80s way. Like, the first drum beat is enough to get me pumped.

I'm surprised that people don't uniformly love the first zeta op, it's one of if not my favourite in the entire franchise. (We're talking about the Japanese one right? Not the boring English one that's just ominous sounding score)

I like raise your flag the best of the ibo ones but they're all pretty good.

I like the zeta English op, even if it totally doesn’t fit the show. It’s just catchy in a military way.

The real answer is that it used Timetravel to revert its psychoframe to when it was crystal. That's also how it stopped all those mobile suits, by time travelling their engines back to before they were assembled.

I'm not joking.
