Genista was only in this episode for like 30 seconds, but she was adorable for all of it. Good robot. https://twitter.com/ya_y_a_ya/status/952546807241891841 NotALizardman fucked around with this message at 03:00 on Jan 21, 2018 |

I tried making some out-of-context GIFs and speeding them up because I thought they'd look funny, but ended up scrapping the idea mid production because I don't need to invite the FBI up my rear end

If it helps you can imagine him coming from an abusive single parent household or something, rather than wishing a kid death. If you need an explanation, it's worth bringing up that he's much smaller than the standard bully archetype, to the point where most of the girls are taller than he is. He's basically a shrimp with low test scores who's being an rear end in a top hat to try to convince everyone (not least of all himself) that he's hot poo poo in spite of everything.

If the only thing that comes from this show is using giant robots to drive home the fact that an important part of a serious relationship is determining if you are each capable of providing the kind of intimacy the other person needs then it will have all been worth it.

Unfortunately he gets paired up with the smallest girl too so no fun there. I know people are afraid of Hiro after the nightmare called Sieg, but Hiro actually got pissed when shortstuff was messing with him. He's not emotionless, but has an inferiority complex. Verrrry different from  SiegOn the thread, you all are doing the exact same thing that was done in the LoL/HnK thread. This show has had 2 episodes shown and no other prior source material that its based on, so let it setup its (metaphorical) mystery before you all fly off the handle. It may subvert these things later on, or it may not. In short, I believe this sums up my feelings on this thread:

Wasn't the Lol situation the exact opposite of this (arguing about stuff that was known based on the source)?

This show is good. I don't have much to say about the subtle-as-a-sledgehammer imagery and euphemisms, but the action has been at least passable so far, and interesting character drama and conflicts are being set up regarding 02/Ichigo/Hiro, Zorome and Miku. I want to see how those pay off, and what's going on with the death cult adults. This being Trigger at least in part, there's definitely going to be role swaps between Hiro/02 as protagonist and heroine, and playing around with the mech cockpit positions and gender combinations. I'm excited to see more.

Eela6 posted:I hope they double fakeout and 02 kills him like the rest I would absolutely prefer this, or at least Hiro being in the receiving seat which I think would explain why all the men paired with 02 died. Because the girls are all the ones who showed effort and exertion. As much as I want a boy princess situation to rival Witch Craft Works I really don't think they're gonna stick the landing, but that's a two episode feeling.

King Cohort posted:I don't have much to say about the subtle-as-a-sledgehammer imagery and euphemisms I do. I think the fact that they're being SO blatant about it that nobody can even dare say its just subtext or metaphor is interesting, because it lets them make a series that (hopfully) can address the effect of physical intimacy on teenage relationships, something that anime has a tendency to approach in pretty drat cartoony ways, without running directly in the massive truck full of unfortunate implications and ratings issues that would result from actually having a bunch of teenagers loving all the time. Compare this with kiznaiver, which had its weird magic excuse for relationship connections be a little too symbolic and ended up being kind of a weird confusing mess. Having it be so blatant could work out in a novel way AND give people lots of stuff to masturbate over (the one true value of anime).

on the other hand utena had its sexual stuff be super blatant while also expressing it in funnier/more interesting ways than a guy humping a realdoll 'dont think youre the only one that can turn into a car'

If you're gonna ask me if utena was better than this show two episodes in, absolutely, but I don't believe you can compare them at all beyond "thre's a lady with pink hair who disregards all the rules of this weirdly enclosed society of teenagers"

Oh yeah wixoss was sick On the other hand apparently the naked mouth fishing scene in the Manga version lovingly draws 02's vagina's reflection in the water droplets around her so the artist doesn't have to censor it so that's even more blatant I guess

During episode one I was all "hahah the girls' skin suits have high heels. Oh hahah, the robots have high heels too. Well of course they do. Oh Japan, you so funny and/or sexist." And then episode two the rear end handles came out and it was then that I realized that I knew nothing.
