Really looking forward to the show if they do three way fights right it could be fanastic. Also have to disagree with the op, when S1 was announced my reaction was "Hell yeah." Though this may be because I really liked gunpla builders (I have not taste).

Really liked the episode, looks like BF hasn't lost its touch. also apparently Doms are now sold out on all the big sites. Oh build fighters, you money making machine you.

I'm pretty much convinced that fumina will be a tactics master. we've got the brawler, the sniper so she'd fit nicely into that category. I'm more optimistic about her characters as she's part a the main three man team, so I think she won't end up like china. her loss could also help be explained by the shock of the guy going "Hey your clubs gonna get shut down"

Did Fumina ever get her hands on it? I can't remember. It was the first time Fumina ever saw gunpla before, so he may not have known how much they weigh or how they are supposed to handle.

Broken Loose posted:I recently watched the final episode, so my opinion is likely tainted by that. It's pretty extreme, though, because the Unicorn AND the Neo Zeong both have impenetrable i-Fields and neither dude seriously tries anything other than "shoot guns that haven't worked for the last 10 minutes" until Full Frontal starts shooting the colony interior at random. unicorn only has an i field on it's shield, and the fight in the colony only last a couple of minutes. I don't even think Banagher fights the neo zeong n the colony, he just high tails it out of there.

Kai Tave posted:"Did you miss the part where the rival beat the poo poo out of the lead male with a hastily put together SD gundam?" because SD gundams aren't made for kung fu, the whole point of the scene was to show that not every gunpla is suited for his martial arts.

I really don't see how the point system in s1 made the fights have any more tension since, well they won nearly every time. They only lost a race. Really they only "lost" twice, against Yuuki in the second and sixth episode, though that loss happened off screen.

I really dont' see how anyone can not see this show is lighthearted. We had a swim team get beaten because they didn't plan for ice (while wearing swimsuits to the match no less). I keep failing to see the "serious" side people are talking about, except for maybe last episode with the sick kid. It's still a goofy show people.

ImpAtom posted:The Try team has outclassed the bulk of their opponents though. They've never lost a single unit except against Shimon's dudes and in several fights they hilariously outclassed their opponents (the V Gundam MA fight.) They're never really behind or even evenly matched. Maybe the G-Master fight. They lost both the Lightening and the Winning in the G-master fight though.

Pureauthor posted:So it just struck me why I find Yuuma's angsting about his dark past even more grating. That's not really fair Sekai didn't really care that much about gunpla at all. Hell he only likes it because he can use his martial arts against opponents. He realized he had to understand gunpla better to do better in the fights Yuuma's quite different He really did care about gunpla building and battling and really understood it. After he was taught by Sei, a world champion. From what we could tell he worked his rear end off in making his gunpla. Having someone completely destroy you and calls you poo poo, I could see why want to quit over that. The two situations are quite different. I still think people get way too huffy over Yuuma, but hey.

Srice posted:Sekai seems like he worked his rear end off for his martial arts and has some mysterious awesome person that trained him. If he lost to someone in a martial arts competition or w/e it would be a similar circumstance and he would probably not mope about it and act cold towards his friends for 2 years. Christ it's a bit of leap to say that he was constantly moping about it I can see losing that bad killing someone's drive to play a game. He just didn't want to do gunpla battle anymore, which is the only reason that he avoided Fumina, because he knew he was letting her down.

Neddy Seagoon posted:Don't forget that the Lightning was entirely designed around countering the guy's Gundam. Which makes no loving sense in hindsight considering he built it before he started playing Gunpla Battle again. I thought Yuuma said that he put basically his best efforts in the lightning, not that he built it specifically to beat that suit.

ImpAtom posted:Except this is a case where this isn't a matter of opinion. The toy sales for BFT have been below those of the orignial series and are weaker than the other airing Gundam show. Aside from a sales spike with the Dom in episode 1 it also hasn't had the "old model sales boost" that BF had more regularly. I can't help but wonder if having two gundam shows may cannibalize sales. S1 didn't have to compete with another show.

I love how the meijin just can't stand the idea of someone giving up gunpla and will personally ensure that that kid continues on. I hope Bandai is giving him a big paycheck.

Okay so the Blonde guy wants to become the next meijin. How exactly do they change meijins? does Yuuki have to die? get beaten in a gunpla battle? Are those glasses akin to a wrestling belt? From what I could tell PPSP assigned the Meijin title in Bf, but they're gone now.

ImpAtom posted:I have to say I'm kinda disappointed that the proagonist's rivals are all 00-inspired machines. (Although The End is at least a bit of everything), especially since last season also ended with an 00 machine prior to the mocks. I know GN Drives are shorthand for powerful but in a series where the Turn-A Gundam can be defeated by a bear punch to the cockpit it doesn't really need that shorthand. well the writer for BF also wrote 00, maybe he's just got a bias towards them. EDIT- Really given all the advantages a GN Drive would offer, I would put one on my gunpla if I was a serious competitor.
