Caros posted:Well I think one of the reasons I am hyped for Build Fighters is that it plays to the thing I like about Gundam, giant fighting robots. I've seen a few people with that opinion. However 00 and Unicorn handle the whole pacifism ideal way better than SEED did. The last episode of Unicorn felt like it was just a huge set up for episode 7, which seeing as it is now feature film length, I've got really high expectations for it. As for BF, I'm liking it way more than I thought I would. As you all have said the fight choreography is awesome. If this is the goofy fun we get before the Origin comes in and blows minds, I'm 100 percent game.

Caros posted:Oh I agree with that 100% SEED's attempt at dealing with pacifism is Kira getting a Mobile Suit that is so strong no one can really fight against him. Unicorn has had some wonderful action scenes intermixed, but I guess I just get annoyed at Banager's Newtype brain problems as he yells at people for the 30th time to stop fighting. I'd go check out some of the games and sidestories if you want a bit more on the side of happier. I'd be happy to link some stuff in the actual Gundam thread for you, I just don't want to derail here anymore than I have. I also want to note, I'd love to see Sei take after his dad and wind up with the Build Nu instead of the Build Freedom. Especially since we see Reiji as a Build Mk. 2 in the credits.

Srice posted:I know it goes without saying but holy crap the internet comments from elsewhere about this episode are really lovely and terrible. I shudder to think about just the YouTube comments alone. Am I the only one who saw the damage done to the Build Strike and just shuddered at the thought at it happening to my stuff?

TaurusOxford posted:Perfect Grade Gunpla battle. Bring it on boys. Not much variety suit wise there. Besides it'll just wind up being PG Strike Freedom vs Perfect Grade 00 Raiser in the finale anyway.

TaurusOxford posted:Pffft. SF's backpack would probably snap at the first attempt to use the Dragoons, and 00 Raiser literally can't move unless you push in the condensors on his limbs. Man I wish I could afford a PG so I could test that.

I hate to be that guy, but I'd by lying if I said I really had thought too deep into this show enough to think if it has sexist implications or not. I mean, the thing was marketed to kids as a push to sell toys, and as others have said, it didn't stick out to me anywhere as bad as AGE. The only reason I didn't like Kirara is because I don't like idol characters. China is there to be an audience surrogate, and that's really about as much as I'm taking from it. It's a big, dumb fun show that wound up being way higher quality than I really expected and honestly I'm pretty ok with that. If this means that it does well enough from toy sells to fund the next big Gundam series after the Origin, awesome. If it gets people into a pretty niche hobby that they can derive as much joy from it as myself and others, even better. It's a dumb kids show and isn't pretending to be otherwise. It may have a mostly adult audience in mind, but I'm sure that wasn't the intention at first.

Darth Walrus posted:Episode 10 here for your viewing pleasure: Oh yeah, definitely loved the Aila and Reiji interactions. Their fight over food had me in stitches. So this episode completely won me over on the Star Build Strike. All I'd seen was the high grade, but seeing it in action was just fun.

BizarroAzrael posted:Got to admit, the game designer part of me sees this and thinks Gunpla Battles are crazy broken, how does one achieve the sort of poo poo they get to pull off there? It does seem to amount to magic protagonist advantage. I must make clear this is not really a criticism of the show. That was the Gundam Visirgo from X if I recall correctly.

I was very dissapointed when the MG Jesta went back up in price. Between it and the cannon those are my favorite grunt suits.

So I'm really curious what that EX-S showed in the preview will have to do with the next fight.

The episode itself was great, but honestly seeing everyone from various Gundam series get their happy ending made the episode completely worth it.

Dumb as it sounds I either want what is essentially Gundam Build Fighters: Battle City Arc or Takeshi Iori: GUNPLA DETECTIVE. Go full wacky.

China's brother needs to be voiced by Yuuichi Nakamura so I can by extension make more Preventer Lightning jokes.
