First episode was great, having giant arms come out of nowhere was a pretty funny gag to put scale on the fights again. Please let Mr. Asia be revealed as his Jigen Haoh master, I need this.

Pureauthor posted:As long as we're continuing the discussion, For a second I was pretty excited for a Deathscythe/Ashtaron combo or something, that would be weird/cool. That scene was too dark for my eyes to make out fully through. I hope Fumino gets to keep kicking rear end with strategy and overwhelming gun fire.

ImpAtom posted:Eh, not really. The Agrissa is a normal canonical add-on for that machine type. We've already seen multiple units in the original show which included independent machines as part of their lineup. The DX in the original show had G-Bits for Christ's sake. We're told the Agrissa is against the rules in regulation fights but in terms of actual Gunpla battles, that's been a fairly regular thing that characters have done. Nobody would have called it cheating against Sei and Reiji. It seems like the rules have changed for 3 player team battles. I'm really looking forward to a bunch of weird team compositions, they'll itch my Gundam Extreme Vs urges.

Srice posted:Honestly posts like these are way more obnoxious since at least ImpAtom explaining the rationale behind his opinion, which last I checked isn't something the SJW types are able to do  though I still think its too early on to make specific character agency calls, same as G-Reco. I'm hoping everyone gets a chance to shine at some point, even if a team setting makes that a little more difficult to set properly.Or: God drat I just want more scenes of the GM Cardigan shooting things before it's sidelined after regionals.

MonsieurChoc posted:Stargazer is pretty broken good by itself, though? Yeah the Voiture Lumiere system is ridiculous. I'll deal with it appearing since the Strike Noir at least got a cameo. ImpAtom posted:It basically felt like a one-on-one fight beyond that, and we even got Yuuma blowing off Fumina's strategy and nothing coming of it, although that'll hopefully end up biting them late. Looks like next episode is going to be where the team's gimmicks start conflicting with one another so they might be dealing with this early.

I watched in haste before work this morning but did Winning Gundam put itself back together after using Winning Road? That seems like it would be a major problem if the one shot kills don't work out. I really hope straight build guy is as cool/sympathetic as the preview is making him out to be, as a guy who can't really paint models because of my eyes he could be my hero.

Okay cool, I remember seeing a bunch of the parts that aren't being used for Winning Road falling away and am kinda interested in how all of those came back together so perfectly since things like the waist parts aren't 'piloted'.

No, Victory is specifically pointed out as a unit that can be piloted by one person as long as that one person controls the three separated parts. But I can't lie, I would be that nerd. Really looking forward to that Victory showing up.

Pureauthor posted:I found it weird/funny that last week they tried to hype up the Winning Gundam going from waverider mode to SD Gundam mode as something anyone should care about and then this week the Ez-8 team was all 'Pft, it's just an SD. We don't need to worry about it.' They just didn't understand the heart/creativity of all Gunpla, then ate poo poo for discriminating/being mook team of the week.

I have been praying that Bright makes an appearance in this series as a Ral substitute/friend/rival. Maybe he's got a White Base esque family van, and is off looking for his rebellious son who ran off after a girl. Or rather: I want a proper Bright slap and some form of Hathaway getting owned.

Fight this week was ridiculously hype. Slugfests are the best.BizarroAzrael posted:I think it might, it seems bound to come up given we keep seeing Yuuma working on Lighting, which seemed to take a pretty bad spill on the ring-out. I think the next ep or two the team will be dealing with repairs (Winning looked ok, it's probably more solid than the rest) and observing the Girl's School against G-Master to establish not-Sleggar. I'm also hoping that Build Burning needs repairs/upgrades now, it would be cool to see how Sekai's imagination would change the design a bit. I am so ready for Victory with two anti-ship swords, that thing looks rad as hell. Not-Sleggar's G-Fighter also looks awesome.

ImpAtom posted:And it's a shame because "I didn't build my own model and now I'm right hosed" would be an interesting plot point. Maybe even one they'll hit later on, but they're using pretty cheap scripting outs to avoid having to deal with it before they want to while still getting things like last week's Destiny battle. I wonder if they'll remember it next week or if Gyanko's machine is going to be mysteriously damaged and have a wrecked shield. I'm hoping that beyond regionals the damage level will be A, there's no way they won't crank it up later. Getting torn up in A damage level seems like a good enough reason to justify a mid season upgrade for Sekai honestly.

You guys are talking all that mean poo poo, just wait until the end of episode 22: a recreation of the pottery scene from Ghost but with gunpla the night before the grand finals

Yeah it's just not as clean of a design. Though I wasn't big on Star Build Strike until I saw it animated so maybe it will work out.

I can see the arms, legs and the lower torso half, it's possible a smaller head could be inside the really huge SD one.. I don't see where it has the hip to knee section, unless they are able to be pulled up from the 'leg' part of the thrusters. There does appear to be ball joint slots if you zoom in enough. Holy poo poo I want that to be the real trick for it though, I will totally buy an SD -> HG gimmick model.

Neddy Seagoon posted:There's a gimmick to the back of the SD head, by the looks of it. I'd wager the "HG" head's in the SD's, and the upper legs descend from the torso. I hadn't thought about the leg joints coming from the current torso section, that is pretty interesting. That hollow of a torso will be really weird for engineering I bet but god drat I want to see a kit of that.

Funny that keeps being said because everyone who is upset with Sekai is quick to point out that Domon had an actual character arc. I can't wait until next episode, I really want to see Star Winning's gimimck in action.

boom boom boom posted:The backstory of the Build Burning is so completely nonsensical I almost don't want to criticize it, because it's hard to believe they could write something like that and not mean it as a "Ramba Ral just shows up when Gundam fights happen" style joke. I want the backstory for the next series to be folks digging up ancient ruins and finding ridiculously old gunpla set ups then fighting with them. Since barely anyone will know what a Gundam is they can just kitbash all sorts of dumb poo poo and think it is rad Turn Build Fighters

BlitzBlast posted:Meanwhile Build Strike has the opposite problem where it has so much poo poo it can do that I don't know how they'd handle it. Absorb Shield would be amazingly game changing, to the point that SBS would probably have to be limited to a super mode of the Build Strike FP like the IWSP, and RG Mode would probably be the EX mode, but how would the discharges be implemented, and would the assist be Build mkII/Beginning or Fenice/Maoh/Sengoku, and would it get a Build Strike Repair form like the Exia does, and how would they implement all the random weapons the Build Strike used over the course of the show, and more importantly how would they implement the baseball episode? Tanking hits and powering up from it would probably be a limited option it could only do for a little bit, kinda like the Crossbone capes I would guess. They could also take the X2 removable cape approach and have an absorb mode and a discharge mode, with different moves for each, though if that transformation were cancellable it would probably be broke as gently caress. Maybe you can only absorb up to a limit then you can't tank shots unless you discharge? I'd rather see Star Winning. Funnels and mode swapping gameplay kinda like the Victory?
