i think Turn A can improve (a bit) after having seen other series, but it didn't feel weaker at all, being the second full series i watched after G.

Namtab posted:What's everyone's fave gundam (show) and gundam (big robot) turn a and unicorn gundam (untransformed) reasons: turn a has a big but well-explored cast, which gives it a really strong emotional core. Kanno's amazing soundtrack really reinforces that for me, too. the mechanical design is really unique in a way i like, and it was the first time i had seen a setting like that in anime. i'm not as big a fan of gundams, but unicorn is really awesome. being monochrome really highlights it's structure, which is kinda blocky/strong and finished with the single horn (idk, would you call it elegant?). the transformation kinda ruins it for me, breaking up the suit with color and into smaller pieces. the v fin is super gaudy too. so, untransformed only! dogsicle fucked around with this message at 14:26 on Oct 12, 2015 |

regardless of intent, that opening scene immediately sold me on the Hygogg toy and i think the fight is incredibly cool. "competency" and suspension of disbelief be damned. that stuff often seems kind of like kind of a pedantic complaint anyway

More Thunderbolt info It's going to be four episodes, the first releases on December 24-25. no info on where it's being released, only viewing options mentioned are digital download/rental. also it's a bit short at 18 minutes, with an additional 10 minute making-of doc being released simultaneously.

Erg posted:Yeah I kind of got this from the opening episode. Things just kind of happen and you're around to see it. It's weird not to have narrative dialogue or backstory dumps, but I think its cool to try it. if you like G Reco's art and tone, i'd definitely recommend Overman King Gainer if you're ever in the mood for another mecha show. it's got a big cast of good/likable characters, the same character designer, and some very unique mech design and action, in addition to the light/optimistic tone. it's also 25(?) episodes and has a good dub, should you be in the mood for that.

i don't understand the complaints that G-Reco is toyetic, like half of the backpacks don't even have toys, same with the rest of the suits in the show. also you're watching Gundam, complaing about toys seems misplaced

# ¿ Jan 15, 2016 21:08 |
i mean i would be fine if they cut the tricky pack, green pack, neodu (even though i love it), and the suit manny used. otherwise i think the different suits work well as visual representations of the factions or origins (for characters like Ringo and Kerbes). and then you have the later hyper-individual suits that are crazy wmd-level stuff and that's fine.

# ¿ Jan 15, 2016 21:21 |
i think if the guy doesn't care about the characters, that's fine and obviously would impact their enjoyment. it's weird to have watched and rewatched so much of the show and say you didn't retain stuff as simple as who the characters were though. personally, the crazy stuff the G Self did always seemed like an obvious furthering of "war is frightening and these people know nothing about it" so i don't really agree that it is super robot-y or ungrounded. i also don't really get at what point G-Reco was considered grounded (enough) for the G-Self to shatter that.

T.G. Xarbala posted:It'll be interesting to see how opinions of G-Reco shake out over the years. Didn't it have a disproportionately large amount of fans among the older female demographic when it aired? yes a fanbase that existed early in the show, but can't have been hurt by the episode where all the guys exercise and the Megafauna captain gets naked
