So, no joke my introduction to Getter Robo was through Gekiganger 3, via Nadesico, but I've loved these three dumb boys crashing their robots into each-other ever since. I've really been enjoying Getter Robo Arc as this bizarre, but lovable off-model mess. I didn't see a thread about it so I thought I'd make one. Anyway, I really like Ryouma Nagare a lot, and Takuma putting on that 安全+第一 helmet in ep one was pretty great. So who wants to talk about 3 guys crashing jets into each-other? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f2xDk6WA8SM

GorfZaplen posted:I was lamenting the cgi and terrible art before this came out but it's so much fun I don't care, and honestly the cgi is pretty good all things considered! I don't know if there are any animators left in the industry that could animate late-Ishikawa robots in all their intricacy so it isn't like they had much choice. To be honest though the new stuff hasn't engaged me much so I've really fallen behind on this show the last couple of weeks Yeah it feels like a passion project. The animation is so, so bad, but I'm with you. I also basically just don't care, I love seeing my guys. Seeing both the dinosaur empire and the humans team up is just like 'lets go!'. my introduction to getter robo was literally though this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wl4JVo87L9w

also fwiw my anime of the decade was mob psycho. Yeah this one is a hard look. I just feel pretty confident making a thread about some ugly thing I am passionate about in here.

gimme the GOD drat candy posted:i know it would never happen but it would be pretty sweet if all the mainline getter manga got animated with decent quality in order. as it is, each getter anime and ova has been in its own continuity that is incompatible with every other continuity. but again, the grand finale of the getter saga barely got made on a shoestring budget so this will absolutely never happen. When I think about how long it took for JoJo to get a good anime it really feels like anything is possible. It's pretty easy to forget just how barebones that first season was. I'm really curious how getter arc was even made. I don't really know much of anything about Studio A-CAT & Bee Media, but the production quality is so rough I'm consistently reminded of 'Musashi Gundoh'. They manage to squeeze in a few seconds of decent animation here and there at least, and I can only imagine their number 1 priority was getting in some cool attacks for the next super robot wars game. There's this 'we got 10 random guys off the street to make this' energy that's kind of endearing. I haven't really kept up on new anime over the years, so maybe this kind of production quality is closer to the average than I realize.

Neo_Crimson posted:Hey some more people on the English side that care about Getter Arc. There are dozens of us! Dozens! hell yeah. I've only read the first series, which bounces around between ultraviolence, newt-based horror, and that kind of 60s/70s popular shonen manga style. It's got some amazing gems though like: I actually haven't read Go, so I'm gonna go ahead and do that.

Unlucky7 posted:I don't know much about Getter Robo except that everyone is some degree of psychopath, apparently. kinda... it has this weird ultra-violence to it that was common to the era, but they're all kind of genuinely good guys who are staring down oblivion.

Neo_Crimson posted:Also here's a cool video about the history of Getter Robo and Ken Ishikawa's career as a Mangaka. I finally got around to watching this and it really is great. You just know you're in the right place when you hear a guy casually say 'go lion' instead of 'voltron'. got to the end of this and this guy did really not need to include the gross porn doujin stuff hell astro course fucked around with this message at 16:21 on Sep 5, 2021 |

Patware posted:i love how much this anime looks like poo poo and how terrible the foley is at all times lmao, yea ssss. gridman and ssss dynazenon are just master classes in animation. Just imagining what trigger could do with getter robo is a fun brain adventure. if I put on my art hat, I always think about how Bones adapted ONE's art in mob psycho, and I think Ishikawa's style definitely has this off-model, off-kilter vibrancy that could be hard to adapt if you're using the source material solely as a story board... but yeah, it just totally misses the mark visually, still, having fun watching it. The Clone Musashis were some real gallows humor.

Willo567 posted:Have they stated whether or not we're going to actually get a conclusion this time? Next episode is the last and I'm not sure they can actually wrap it up in that time I literally thought 12 was the last ep until I just checked, lmao. I kinda figured the production quality was being reflected just shrugged and went "oh okay, that' must be that then." At least there is 1 more ep, but I'm pretty much at peace with it.

Ethiser posted:The audacity of these people to keep the cliffhanger ending only to add another cliffhanger on top of that and to tease me with a new Getter again. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qaJw6lqGFew thanks for watching along everyone. Heats still bangs and maybe the moral of the story is it is up to us to make a better getter.
