The best character is Sekai's sister's aura of  Also Imp Atom I usually agree with you on things like this but it really really feels like your looking for excuses with this one. Like Fumina has been show to be the most competent out of the 3 protags so far, beaten only by dirty tricks and distractions(From the same dirty cheater, no less!). She even gives the hot blooded "I'll NEVER give up speech" that rally's China's poo poo brother. ZenMasterBullshit fucked around with this message at 18:23 on Oct 15, 2014 |

ImpAtom posted:How has she? Like, I'm not trying to be a dick here but the 'dirty trick' she got beaten by was 'the basic attack of a robot that, at most, she was not expecting to see.' Then she was captured by a creeper who made goofy gunpla-altered versions of the usual 'evil pervert villain threatening a girl' comments and had to be rescued. The first episode is was the distractions of Creeper president threatening to dismantle the club. And yeah that's what he was trying to do because he saved telling her that until the middle of the fight when he needed to distract her and the second time was him literally putting a second machine/power up on the table mid fight. The dude was fighting under-handed because she could smoke him on in a one on one fight. And earlier you tried to act like her taking down the mobile armor wasn't a big deal because it was a team effort (Which it was, that whole thing was supposed to show 'Wow look at how well they work together!') but Sekai's big special finisher kick only knock a few spindly spider legs off and Kousaka's shot just pierced it once. The vast majority of the damage was from the Cardigan unloading on the thing. She's shown to be a pretty okay pilot in skill (see, the whole opening scene in episode 1) and then we can deduce she's skilled from the fact that her only on screen opponent has gone out of his way to make sure he had some trump card so he could catch her by surprise.

No he didn't, he knocked off 3 spindly legs. That's it. That's not 'Torn to pieces' when 80% of the unit is still intact. This is what I meant when you seem like you're trying to find something to be upset about.

ImpAtom posted:You're both going "he took off three spindley legs' which massive underrates the damage done to it, especially since it throws the unit off balance. I admit that going 'one shot' is a bit unfair as she unloaded her gattling gun into it which was a number of smaller shots, but c'mon. Are you seriously arguing that what Fumina did was a show of serious skill and ability? It was a show of as much skill and ability as what the other two teammates did. Like that's literally the entire point of that scene. And you're really up-selling what Sekai did and it really seems like you're doing that to justify why 'No Fumina's stuff doesn't count'.

ImpAtom posted:They're not significantly greater but they also don't come after getting captured and creeped at and needing to be rescued. It also comes on the wake of last episode where she once again was caught off guard by the exact same guy and put into a vulnerable position where she needed to be rescued. Her partners are allowed to have cool moments without having Gunpla Creeper making gropey-hands at them. Yeah so is she, she had the entirety of the first episodes opening, and the fight with the Enact before he cheated this episode and probably many more moments in the next 24 episodes we have left. I...I don't think I like where this is going. It is however preferable to ImpAtom's weird posts where he ignores the show to prove to himself that 'No, Fumina is a bad pilot and this show is bad because of it."

ImpAtom posted:She took down one person. The scene where she is flying forward is her flying towards open space. The explosion is a missile that flies past her and misses just before exploding. It's just, No she would have won one on one if he hadn't literally cheated, or at the very least if you are being pedantic, had not actively lied about the ruleset they were using. He actually says "We'll play just like the championships" and then does something (launching a second part of a unit after the match has started) that would be illegal in a game using the championship rules. I mean, you could argue that if he had originally launched with it she could not have won, but the fact that he cheats and catches her off guard with it and she struggled with it isn't actually good evidence of that. You're seeing things in a way that no one else in the thread is (Like your weird dismissal of Fumina's attack against it and then also saying Sekai's move did a lot more than it actually did) and that's why people are saying you're actively ignoring things that counter your statements. Because you are. W.T. Fits posted:No, I think you're letting your preconceptions about what you expect to happen color your interpretation of actual events. But I've realized that it's a waste of time arguing with you about it, since nothing anyone else says is going to convince you otherwise, and nothing you say is going to convince us that you're right. Basically this.

Maybe the momentum from being sucked out of the colony could have tossed the R-Gyagya out of the ring and into the floor? Also have you ever played a video game and got stuck on a cliff and we're being pulled/pushed off? It's a very hectic feeling and you can easily get too into the fight. loving Pyro's in TF2 man.

ImpAtom posted:I don't really think something being out of place is inherently good. Part of why I liked the first season fights is that it had a lot of emphasis on the many different parts of battle, including planning, preparation and the limits and strengths of their suits. Sekai's magical kung-fu sidesteps a lot of that (so far) in a way that not even Nils' magical kung-fu did. They're not going to play out the kung-fu super robot poo poo because it's literally the entire point of the Build Burning and Sekai's fighting style. And the RG system was basically the exact some thing as the kungfu poo poo is except one hundred times more boring. Then again, we're only 4 episodes in and they've already done more new things with the Kung Fu than they ever did with the RG system so I wouldn't be worried about it getting stale.

Revolver Bunker posted:I think once Build Burning gets damaged to the point where it can't move Sekai will get lectured either by his sister or the return of his master about how the Gunpla should be an extension of his body and that he won't be able to unlock the potential of Build Burning until he understands that. Then cue training montage with them on a cliff and waves crashing below. Then we unlock the super mode where he becomes gold and has telekinetic Plaskvy punches. Let's do it, let's go full G Gundam. The solution to fighting ranged opponents is to extend your reach. Punch farther.

Maybe the Dragonar guys will lead to a better 3v3 fight. It's almost as if the point of this entire episode was to see the results of the teams individual and special training. Ral himself calls them a team of unique individuals. Next week seems to be a battle about making all their hard work congeal together as a team.

So after hearing a lot of people talk about how this show's been so boring and bad w/r/t fights compared to the first season I went back and rewatched most of season 1. Aaaaaand they're mostly the same? Minus the Yuuki and Fellini fights the show is most budget as all hell. Say what you will about the kid, at least Sekai's punch gimmicks can be flashy and fun (The Tornado, the exploding out of a Dom, the 'running' in space.) where as Reiji and Sei kind of just screamed "RG system!" then punched guys, Which is kind of extra weird because they game the Build Strike a really interesting subsytem and gimmick with the absorbing shield and release mechanisms, but then they basically wrote it out of the story by having them use it early so every enemy basically just didn't let them use it so we got stuck with the Build Strikes lame RG system gimmick.

I don't know, I thought it was really cool how Fumina kind of came into her own as a builder with the kind of talent that shocked people. Like Fuuma's rival was even wrapped up in how cool a unit the Winning is and how she not only scratch built a unit that suits her, but also suits her two idiot partners in more than one way. Also the EZ-8 were the Rolentos Jr. and much like the Rolento twins were actually kind of lame. Tacticool suits are neat, but you have to actually be cool guys to make them not just Real Robo wank material (See: Yuuki for example of it done right.) Have all the cheap tricks and advantages you want, it won't help you when you're fight someone who understands the spirit of gunpla/Has a fist of burning passion.

ImpAtom posted:I like real robots. I prefer them to super robots. v Real robots are fine in shows that are actually Real Robot shows, but Gundam has always been about Space Psychics controlling robots with their Soul Empathy and beating bad guys with UNDERSTANDING and EVEN SO. Trying to real robot up Gundam has always just been a joke to me, even though a lot of the less dumb OVA's are some of the best stuff. It just feels completely out of place tone wise with the franchise. It's also why G Gundam and Turn A are basically the best because they just kind of say "gently caress IT, IT'S BASICALLY MAGIC gently caress YOU ENJOY THE SHOW". Also the best Valkyrie is powered by songs about how Music will save the universe. The pinnacle is Super Robo.
