Bloom into You anime ending at it's point would be okay if we get a sequel like all the other good 2018 shows are getting this year take the hint

realizing just how wonky a choice the yagakimi anime ending before the play was

In fairness, the choice being made was less about aiming for a specific end point and more about choosing a faithful adaptation & maintaining the original story's pacing over doing the amount of original material you'd basically be forced to do in order to hit a reasonable endpoint in a single cour.

really i just think more people should watch gainer/greco in general cause the only one of tomino's goofier and more out there later work people ever talk about is turn-a, and i think gainer and greco are around the same level of quality with maybe more consistently good action

lol what is there to talk about? Fans still talk about Turn A cuz it gives them actual food for thought. Greco was simply a dumb thing a handful of ppl enjoyed roundly mocking, and that is its total stamp on the gundam legacy: "what a dumb thing that was."

That can't work because then we'd lose out on everyone on the the planet except Sayaka herself looking at Haru and Yuu next to each other and asking questions.

what are you talking about? g-reco isn't like massively popular but it has its fans, its not something 'a handful of ppl enjoyed roundly mocking'

and why did you reply to the same post to go 'g-reco is bad' twice, in different ways

yeah that's fair, i just really hope a s2 happens cause like. i thought the anime was okay but nothing that blew me away, but i thoroughly enjoyed reading everything from the play onwards and everything after they hook up officially is like. really really great. i'd love to see that stuff animated

plus it'd be cool to bump up the odds of an adaptation of regarding saeki sayaka...

I feel like the Sayaka books in particular could make for an absolutely killer movie.....

Greco was my first gundam after build fighters and I somehow managed to enjoy it and pick up on the story through the power of staring at the screen and reading the subs

lol yeah I remember the thread for that show havin posts that read exactly like this every page before launching into 800 paragraphs of "explanation". And so it went on the next page, and then the next one. And the one after that...

Also, a few pages ago people were going on about CSM and, while I loved it to pieces (:v:), I do agree that some of the action scenes tended to be hit or miss in their results, but when it hit.



It hit like a loving dump truck. :krad:

Oh right, I got about half way into that then picked it up and finished the other part when it was over.

I should try to read it again all at once.
