I wonder if they've noticed the typo in the episode 13 title yet.

These "slow" episodes are really good. Can I have another 100 episodes of this show, please?

I just started watching this. It wouldn't be nearly this good without having watched the original... but because I have, and I know what's coming more or less, it's awesome.

Not that this is bad, at all. I have no complaints whatsoever, it's just I'm watching these continually getting chills up my spine because I'm so excited.

OP of season 1 is giving me serious Macross Plus vibes. This is so much better than I ever expected a remake of this could be.

I agree. Season 1 wasn’t objectively better or worse than the original, it was just... modernized and had more bishonen pretty boys. It’s hard to say how they compared, because it’s unfair to compare 16 episodes to 140 episodes. But I think the remake has done a worthy job so far.

I'm almost caught up already, episode 14 right now. I'm surprised they brought in the Earth cult this early - I'm right in remembering that was never brought up until quite a bit later in the original?

IIRC it was mentioned around the time of the civil wars. For example, I believe Trunicht hides out the coup with the help of Earth cultists.

I don't even remember how long ago I watched this. Viewing my post history in this thread tells me 12 years ago, so the particulars are very hazy. I just hope it doesn't take that long again for them to finish it.

It's subjectively worse than the original, IMO, but it's still LoGH so it's really quite good. Things like the atrocious redesign of Sidney "Sithole" is the first that comes to mind. But again, I enjoyed my time with it. Interesting they decided to do another series rather than the original plan of a bunch of follow up movies?

I'll say it, the new opening theme is stuck in my head and I don't want it out. I never skip it and I like it more each time I watch it. I guess it's been long enough that the redesigns have hardly registered with me. I definitely noticed the difference in names, though, lol.

The themes chorus sound a bit too much like "Nothing's Gonna Stop Us Now" for my liking, but whatever lol.

Maybe it's my hazy subjective memory but I didn't remember Hildegard having such a decisive, almost forceful but still tactful manner of presenting things to her father in the original (well, to be honest, presenting her point of view at all, it's been a long time). Really liked her potrayal in this latest episode. Her VA is incredible.

I binged a few episodes on crunchy roll, and I think season 2 has hit its stride much better, the show is pretty dang good now. It still cuts out a few of my favorite moments from the old show, but I think I’ll be able to share it with normal anime friends much more easily.

Nick Soapdish posted:The Youths just don't love space operas apparently It's also a story with a lot of politics and consideration for wide strategic concerns. It's kind of a hard sell even if you're interested in space fights already, which is less popular these days anyway. Add on the new character designs turning off a lot of the people who'd usually be evangelizing it, and it's easy to see why it's not a big hit.

It also helps to know a lot of history, then you can be like “Wow this crazy anime plot happened in real life. Several times.”

it has a lot working against it, popularity-wise, not least being that it was almost impossible to get a hold of for a really long time unless you were deep in the animes and had a go-to tape copier

Is anyone else having trouble with episode 16 on crunchyroll? Last night I chalked it up to technical difficulties, but it's doing the exact same thing tonight, just hangs and fails to load any more near the end of the opening theme. The episode title doesn't show up on the episode select screen either, unlike the other ones on there.

I see they also haven't fixed the typo in the E13 title.

I was at least able to watch it via seeking past the part where it hung. May be the crunchyroll app on my Roku I guess. Also re: episode 17, I hope a coup d'etat never happens here, but if it does I hope I have a fraction of the balls and eloquence of Admiral Bewcock. The same goes for when he faces Reinhard later on.

Man the last few episodes of Die Neue These have really ramped things up, the score continues to be excellent. Once the new one is over I really need to find the original to watch it through.
