Gundam Wing is real good and has the best grunt designs and you should all watch it.

everythingWasBees posted:Should probably add a "If you're in it just for the robots or toys toys" reccomendation for build fighters. Build Fighters can be recommended for more than just that. As long as you're not after hard sci fi or whatever (why would you be watching gundam then) it's a legit fun story in addition to its fantastic fights. Sadly, Try can be skipped.

The only really mediocre mobile suit in Wing is Sandrock. Everything else is great.

It should not be a surprise that these are among my favorites. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4Qie69s6dJ8 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vIV-t6VMwhQ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l7QXWkimA0A The cover art for those is also a good reminder of how good the Gundam Wing art can be. The Rhythm Emotion op still looks amazing.

Ricardo Fellini swigging from a flask in broad daylight. I've missed him so much. Also Sei's dad being a terrible husband again and sitting with Ral and Chinan instead of his wife. chumbler fucked around with this message at 05:58 on Aug 25, 2017 |

I'm sad now because I've been reminded of how good Build Fighters 1 was and how bad Try was. This may be compounded by having listened to a few seconds of the Try dub and hoo buddy is it terrible.

If you didn't enjoy Mao turning every glowing part of his gunpla into a beam cannon then you're dead inside.

I still can't get over how Fumina's gunpla was written such that its primary purpose was to explode so the boys could fight better. I mean her second half one was pretty good at least, but still. And Ali is certainly a terrible person, but I don't know if he's really a bad character. chumbler fucked around with this message at 22:19 on Aug 30, 2017 |

Patrick is the only person in 00 who had a happy ending. It's debatable whether Kati did.

I don't recall her loving gundam the franchise so much as just loving gunpla, which would be something that separates her from Sei. Not being the world's greatest prodigy builder would also be a good distinguishing point.

God I forgot about assimilation. They put it in to try to raise the stakes but fell well short of like the Sei/Reiji vs Fellini fight because there was zero emotion or attachment in any Try fight.

I have to question the opinions and moral standing of anyone who likes Wufei. The entire rest of the cast of Wing is good, with Treize and Relena being the best. And it still amuses me that Relena's dub VA is also two later captain moms and I can't believe the BF dub hosed up that joke with Sei's mom.

Speaking of Gundam Wing, it looks like they literally just started putting up HD remaster episodes on the gundaminfo youtube channel. Unfortunately, it is not the dub. The captions appear to match the dub though. Dare I hope for a bluray release? Dare I hope further that this means Frozen Teardrop?

PenguinKnight posted:since it's being put up on gundam info, i watched the first episode of Wing last night. the end to that episode is goofy as hell and great I mean the episode basically starts with Zechs jumping out of a carrier in reentry with a ground based mobile suit to fight Heero in freefall, then wrassles the Wing and jumps out of the Leo while still probably pretty high up. Wing is intense, perhaps. Also I hope they put up the definitive version, the dub. And it's a shame the soundtrack was taken down, because Wing's soundtrack is great. chumbler fucked around with this message at 21:55 on Sep 6, 2017 |

Tallgeese is good for the same reason leos are good, they're not visually overdesigned. The only real bit of extraneous flair is Tallgeese's rad helmet. Also didn't some gundam needs work out that leos are like top tier among mass produced mobile suits across the whole franchise in terms of (made up) stats? chumbler fucked around with this message at 23:48 on Sep 6, 2017 |

I still kinda wish that Zechs and Heero hadn't swapped Zero and Epyon with each other. It would have been a neat reversal.

It's because the stakes are low that they can take it so seriously. Low stakes are good. We should care because of how much the characters care, not because losing means the world ends.

If you're going to watch SEED, watch the dub for Rau alone.

BGM is going to be Wings of a Boy Who Killed Adolescence and it's never coming off that. Until they add Trans-Am Raiser and Zechs Comes.

Dulkor posted:So what have folks been playing as in Versus so far? I've found myself gravitating to the RX-78 as a good jack of all trades, the Exia because despite 00's flaws that suit will always be one of my favorites, and the Delta Plus mostly to unlock Bright. Tallgeese I, though I'm also liking G-Arcane and a lot of the cheapo grunt suits, probably because they're fast.

I have played once online and have a 100% win rate. Back to CPU matches to preserve this victory. I'm also going to take 3/4 of the 2 on 2 match being Barbatos Lupus as a sign.

Dumb question, how the heck do you control the transformed forms? I only seem to be able to fly level or up, which makes aiming rather impossible. Actually I can't even figure out how to do the transformations that don't have a dedicated button. chumbler fucked around with this message at 07:18 on Oct 2, 2017 |

They're not the greatest grunt suit in the entire franchise (Leo) but they all have neat ideas behind them to show just how far ahead the gundams were. The flying ones are spindly because they have to be to get off the ground, and the tieren are like the first attempt at tanks on legs. chumbler fucked around with this message at 01:15 on Oct 6, 2017 |
