Hellioning posted:I mean. They are technically military, right? That kind of contrast is pretty par for the course in SRW. Besides, him being meshed with a rather more serious show has been done before: I mean, it worked out pretty well with Zambot 3 in SRW Z. Come to think of it, Kappei's family are also interstellar refugees.

Eeevil posted:I'm so confused by people saying level scaling is a strike against SRW 30. Does that term not mean what I think it does? Every other SRW I've played (VXT, J, W) has adjusted enemy levels based on the average level of my team, I thought that was what level scaling meant. If you try to play on Expert, enemies have such a huge level advantage over you that you'll be gaining thousands of XP per kill, causing your own levels to skyrocket every stage and giving you effectively infinite ExC until people start hitting the level cap at 200. At which point you're on an even playing field forever, but now you have level 200 SP pools and can cast as many spirits as you want.

I know this was posted like a couple months ago but I just caught up on the thread and I wanted to say I had an urge to buy the huckebein 30/th figure just to put the eye covering on the 30th and make it do the twin graviton rifles the way the 30 does... Now that Bandai is doing HG models of the Huckebeins I hope after the 3 they do the 1, 30/th, and exbein series in some order.

Playing SRW T for the first time and I can't help but wonder, remembering good times with Z: what if Renton from Eureka 7, instead of joining up with the Gekkostate and the crew of horrible horrible jerks and even worse children, instead joined the Arcadia with captain Harlock and his "we let people do whatever on the starship free ride until it's actually important" style?

I’m almost sure they’ve done the all ellipsis conversation before, maybe more than once. I think Z2 had Heero, Setsuna and Chirico do it.

ImpAtom posted:I have learned to take anything someone says about Gundam SEED's production with a healthy dose of doubt because people really convinced themselves Fukuda and Morisawa were the great satan. Yeah, large segments of the western Gundam fandom made the collective decision to hate SEED so much that they took every possible opportunity to twist any scrap of information to paint SEED and its production in the most negative light possible at all points, up to and including pretty much making poo poo up. I remember the persistent rumors that Tomino had publicly poo poo on SEED and called it a bad show.

The one big rumor I remember was that Chiaki Morosawa was a Fujoshi, thus all the yaoi bait. It does sound like.some.poo poo that anime fans would make up in the 2000s.

Man, I read through the old LP of SRW Z by Brunom and the SEED hate is strong. Heck, that was the game in which you unlocked secrets by repeatedly nuking the Archangel, something you had to go well out of your way to do at least once, because it was a neutral unit you couldn't even directly attack.

Honestly original SEED is middling in many respects but if it weren't for one very specific aspect* that drags it down a lot I'd honestly rank it surprisingly high in my personal rankings of Animated Gundam works *specifically the very out of place and gross way it handles violence

I remember reading that Terada did a speech on misinformation and how easy it is to make people believe lies that sound nice to them, which is kind of appropriate with how much false trivia has gotten spread around about his own series.

Honestly even if Tomino did publicly comment it'd probably be some benign but weird poo poo considering every interview the man has is clearly him saying random things off the top of the dome whether or not he actually believes it
