Raymondo Person posted:"hey, we couldn't get JAM Project to do the soundtrack for us so... HERE'S THIS!" doesn't help either http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-b4w08xusl8 Plus honestly, MAXON wasn't really good. quote:Mazinkaiser was a pretty brainless OVA with a goofy episodic format but it was still very fun to watch because it was occasionally funny, was pretty well animated and had a lot of charm to it. Similarly I watched the Mazinkaiser movie (which was... a remake of a 70s Toei movie, I think?) with a friend and we both thought it was very mediocre. It lost the charm that the OVA series had because it tried to have an actual story beyond "teehee what do Baron Ashura and Dr. Hell have in store for our heroes this week??" with actual drama and it kinda sorta failed. Actually, I liked the movie more than the series. I don't think it failed but like the series, it didn't have a plot either. Just this time, it had a more serious tone which gave off some 70s Grendizer feel during those dramatic episodes. Serious Frolicking posted:Shin Mazinger wasn't very successful. If SKL does better I vow to one day become President of the United States so that I can nuke Japan. http://www.ikbis.com/channels/eye/230577 He also said that after Shin Mazinger, there would be a new Mazinkaiser series. But after some time, a japanese blogger has posted stuff about the Shin Mazinger Complete Guide book which was released in around February 2010. According to him, (from what I gathered with google translation), the sequel is apparently undecided or not planned. http://newkaiser.seesaa.net/article/147886157.html (3-4 articles on it, just click around and use google translation) While it would be great for us to see a sequel to Shin, I don't see why Go Nagai would continue it if Japanese people didn't like it. Instead, we're having a new tv series of Go Nagai's Dororon Enma kun this year directed by GGG's director(Yoshitomo) character designer & animation director (Kimura). http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mh2z5nB2VyY SantaBla fucked around with this message at 10:11 on Jan 18, 2011 |

SantaBla posted:Prepare your nuke then. The reception of the ova during the airing in late November was generally positive. (comments from bloggers) It even has a 5 star rating on Amazon Japan. In comparison, Shin Mazinger is considered a failure. Go Nagai said in Jordan back in 2009 that he had plans for Great chapter and UFO chapter.

I was watching the V miniseries part 2, and there's a scene where a mountain camp gets attacked and next to some kids at a picnic table is a sizeable mazinger toy.

Jumbo Machinders/Shogun Warriors was big in the late 70's/early 80's. Grendizer had a toy in that line, and Godzilla had a figure with rocket punch fists. It rules that we've been getting exposure to it since then.

Looks like the guy from DeservesSubs caught us talking about Mazinger Z filler and such (if you are reading this, guy from DeservesSubs, you are as awesome as the Mazinger Z episodes you are subbing (Mazinger Z rules)), and also he has subbed up to episode 3. Adding Mazinger Z to the OP as well.

ANN apparently has it linked or something on their Gaiking page, stating it being posted on Jan. 25, 2011, via Hulu. All it says is Toei being involved but no other company. And the whole thing is subbed already? Are they using a pre-existing fansub or something? And even though ANN has the videos linked, they have yet to make any mention of it being licensed or up for streaming or any other relevant news. This is all confusing

Toei produced the series, so this is another of those direct release things like HnK/GE999/Harlock. They apparently either cropped it to 4:3 or lol are horizontally squishing it though, since it's definitely a widescreen show. Now, why Toei would bother with this is another question entirely.

The thing it really had going for it was mech designs... but beyond that there wasn't a lot to it, perhaps besides seeing a super robot fighting at Crush Intrude speeds for brief periods of time.

Zorak posted:It had a few interesting battles that you're better off looking up on youtube Gaiking Legend is the Odin Sphere of robot shows: great visuals unless you were well-rehearsed into what has great visuals and can see the flaws, interesting and pretty designs, but ultimately a painful slog that could more or less have been distilled down to less than one fortieth the time by just reading a summary and watching the good parts online. The real problem is that it's boring because you've already seen everything it has to offer but better in other shows. It doesn't do anything new.

They should have just put up original Gaiking instead of the remake. It has yet to be subbed, and I want to watch another anime with Akira Kamiya's golden super robot pilot voice.

Schwarzwald posted:I thought the show was fantastic. Yeah, I really enjoyed it too. What with the mechanic of everyone on Daiku-Maryu getting the spotlight at one point or another, it really felt like Star Trek with giant robots. Plus, seeing helper robots who exist to do more than show how much they suck by getting shot down constantly was really nice.

My PS2 can now play imports and so I've been playing SRWZ and OGs as much as I can lately. I now deeply regret not doing this years ago because this poo poo is awesome. On Gaiking: I only ever watched a few episodes of this. It seemed alright, but generic. I'm guessing Toei had way more input on this show than Dynamic Pro which is why it was less crazy and unpredictable.

Raymondo Person posted:The fact that it's not animated that well for a 3-episode OVA (Shin Mazinger's high-budget episodes looked way better than this) Broken Loose posted:Gaiking Legend is the Odin Sphere of robot shows: great visuals I had no gripes with the show except the QUALITY. I don't know man, there are plenty of cool battles and likeable characters everywhere (and not obnoxious like some... TTGL... cough) In my humble opinion, it's how super robot shows should be. It doesn't have the parodying effect created by TTGL, the constant theme of courage that gets blasted to you at every moment in GGG, or even the perverted stuff in Mazinkaiser, Gravion or Godannar.

SantaBla posted:Keep in mind that the audience for Gaiking is a lot younger than the super robots by Dynamic Pro. I also don't see a lot of reasons to hate it apart from the fact that it's generic (and ofc the QUALITY). GGG was generic, TTGL was generic, Gravion was generic, I see this term thrown around way too often without meaning much. Whoa whoa whoa, GaoGaiGar was anything but generic. Watch your terms, there.
