I watched Patlabor earlier last year, and it really is one of my favorite things ever. I think a testament to how great the characters are is that they can be a bunch of goofballs in a (pretty much) all-comedy setting like the TV series and can also function really well in a realistic setting like Patlabor 2. It's one of the few shows in general that I was sad to see end, and while I don't think its send-off was appropriately great I was satisfied with just watching the cast do dumb random stuff anyway. Mango Polo posted:Patlabor owns. Griffon owns. First time I thought, "I actually want a plastic toy of that robot". While the characters are definitely the stars of Patlabor, the mech designs are just gorgeous and nothing today really matches their combined sleekness and functionality. Rewatching Gundam 0080 over the holidays really made me miss Patlabor's style. Griffon absolutely owns, and the entire arc it had both in the TV series and the second OVA were my favorite. Izubuchi's designs and the animators somehow made the robots look even cooler beat up than normal and they weren't afraid to have fighting delve down to crude fisticuffs and reverse backdrops on multiple occasions. Really wish Izubuchi still had ties with Gundam or worked on other projects. Iserlohn fucked around with this message at 05:16 on Jan 9, 2015 |

Griffon kicks rear end and has a kickass theme.
