Mari Okada also write M3, a mecha show that had so little exposure it's hard to believe it even exists

Oh she wrote that? I watched like two episodes but everything looked so dull I couldn't take it any more.
I'm suddenly more worried about how brown and grey everything looks in this.

Daisuke has the outside US streaming tights including the uk I think, sadly last time I tried their website was garbage.
I wish other streaming sites would die I could just watch everything on CR

Woah that owned.

I like that they established Mika as an excellent pilot before he got into the Gundam for a change.

And drat I want the soundtrack.

Guess i'll try out the dasuke streams finally, i know i'd be 100% more interested in it if i could stream it thru my xbox.

Only if you live in the US though.

I don't really care either way but there's very little information contained in honourifics that you can't get across in other ways if the translation is competent. The hardest part is probably when changing them is used to signify a change in relationship, especially the switch from family to given name since a lot of translations use given name for friends anyway.

I feel like Orga having Mika do all the dirty work while his hands stay 'clean' is going to be a major point later on, or at least I hope it is because it would be pretty weird not to address it.

Everything being grimdark all the time is boring and having a lighter scene brings into a starker relief all the hosed up poo poo that followed it.
Also that scene was cute so who cares.

That was an interesting episode and it's cool they don't have to have a fight every week to keep up momentum but drat there was some badly drawn stuff going on, outside of the already mentioned Atra :) face, Mika's back was like a squiggle and three dots most of the time. I hope the cracks aren't showing already.

Hopefully at worst it'll be like the derpy background stuff in Madoka. Only without a major earthquake delaying the last episode.

Is it possible to play IBO on a PS4 somehow? I'm in the UK and watching Daisuki on my laptop. I watched Build Fighters on the YouTube app, but using the Daisuki site over the browser doesn't work.

The only easy way is the CrunchyRoll app but that's a week behind. The only other way is to start messing around with Plex and :filez: episodes.
Or trying to find said pirated versions in a format the PS4 can read from a memory stick I guess.

Nope, we don't really know anything about it other than it was a huge war 300 years ago and that mobile suits, including Gundam frames, were used. IBO isn't in the same universe as the original series at all.

No, it's just rumours at the moment. In fact not even that, it's only based on a possibly inaccurate Amazon listing for the soundtrack.
