Spiritus Nox posted:Interesting that our rogue pilots are speaking English. English is the international language of aircraft, and both ATCs and pilots are required to speak it fluently, as most communications while airborne are done in English. This is why the Japanese pilots and JASDF ground control are speaking English in this scene.

I like how in the previous film, we learned why Gotoh was in the Special Vehicles unit, and now we've learned why Nagumo is there.

Watching these is making me realise how much I love Oshii's films, which makes me want to try watching Avalon again, since I bounced off it the first time around.

Gotoh and Nagumo really are just perfect for each other.

Remind me - the only difference between JSDF and actual state millitaries is that Japan technically isn't constitutionally allowed to start wars with people, right?

Not for long at this rate, but they're not allowed to join wars either, or be deployed outside of Japan except by UN mandate, which is why they're a self-defence force and not an army.

Spiritus Nox posted:Well, yeah, but I was mostly talking on paper Japan's constitutional inability to participate in wars on foreign soil wasn't just on paper, though. Sadly, Shinzo Abe is a poo poo. Also, this blimp company scene is the scene that has made me love Matsui. Lemon-Lime fucked around with this message at 01:08 on Apr 28, 2016 |

Spiritus Nox posted:"Sir! Will all due respect, suck a fat one, sir!" You can tell things are going badly when Gotoh doesn't have some kind of clever speech planned, and instead just speaks his mind.

All the older people in SV2 are incredibly powerful. Sakaki is so powerful, he wears sunglasses inside.

Spiritus Nox posted:Oh hi Noa, Asuma, remember when you were the main characters in this series? Every scene with Noa in it drives home how the tone for this is completely different from the first film and Early Days. It's pretty sad how in four short years, all the optimism has drained out of the main characters. Lemon-Lime fucked around with this message at 01:29 on Apr 28, 2016 |

Shinobu is cooler than you. Good movie. Looks great for its time. Sounds fantastic. Series sure mellows the gently caress out as you get away from the OVA, doesn't it?
