warning turn your audio way down for anyone who watches this

ouch

It does say to turn your volume down at the 23 minute mark in the description.

That sequence was great though, it's like some kind of Rube Goldberg machine of plot devices.

I am quietly hoping for Demonbane in Z3.2 UX gave me a taste of the magic, but I really think the eldritch horrors being related to Ba'al would make a good bit of sense. Mostly though, I want to punch things with an infinite heat fist again.

That being said, realistically Diebuster stands out to me as being the most likely addition. Hell, they even have a spare Earth to throw at the giant space monster now.

Looks like Stage 58 of Z3.1 has been translated: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A90wx3tNBJ8

It's rather satisfying to see Gatorade the Space Hobo completely lose his mind.

Always. After all, in the next episode, Chirico brings you with him to Hell.

People who didn't use that attack to kill the final boss of Z3.1 were playing a different game than me.

Yeah, Votoms is one of my favorite mecha anime series so I make a point of turning Chirico into an avatar of Death. And thanks to him getting some of the best cut-ins in the series, he ends up getting the kill on most bosses.

one of the most awful and lovely SRWs in modern history

I agree that the R originals feel like they got the short end of the stick but come now. OGG was a mess, but you've got to admit it was pretty great to run around with giant robot Kenshiro and see Dark Brain again after all these years. :unsmith:

Ryoto and Rio are forming a new cool team with Irm and Ing so we'll hopefully get their adventures at some point.

I hope this is the case, but I have a sinking feeling that the former two especially will just continue to be Original the Machinery Barshem's backup dancers.

Three sidekicks and two protagonists is a problem easily solved by giving the EXExbein a two-seater upgrade.

Only if it gets a bigger backpack with even more pointy bits sticking out of it.

Not to mention that they have complete creative control over the story in OG and can take it in whatever direction they want. The wild west days of Master Asia being an alien from outer space are gone now.

I miss the days of stuff like Touhou Fuhai fighting Alberto from Giant Robo. :smith:

2nd OGs makes me genuinely pity the megalomaniacal murderous douchebag that is the main antagonist.

The way they handle a lot of characters is a travesty but the good outdoes the bad, I think.

Well, I've always found that Ultraman Zest Euzeth has always been a fairly sympathetic villain since he seems to be legitimately trapped in a cycle of bad decisions by his own destiny and transmigrated memories.

Besides, anybody whose origin story is "wanted to become an Ultraman and protect nature" can't be a totally bad guy.

There's this, which isn't complete but will supposedly be updated in the future.

What exactly are the other Z originals up to during Z3.1? That's been something I've been curious about for a decent chunk of my playtime.

Professor Fox mentions that they're coming to "save" Esther at some point.

The others get mentioned in passing, and I think ol' Foxy comments that Crowe ended up in another world during the timequake.

It was inevitable. The thing is the most literal application of "Whatever junk we have lying around, bolt it onto the Gundam and don't look back, no matter how ridiculous it looks", to be fair.

Also, I wonder if "throw loving Jupiter at the enemy" will be an 1 ammo or 2 ammo attack.

Better yet, it's not even Jupiter but Jupiter-2 which I'm not sure they've even established exists in the Z world. So they'd have to explain that it exists, simply so that Lal'C can throw it at aliens.

Speaking of which, where the hell is the Exelio-class space monster going to come from? Are they just gonna go "oh by the by, there's this 12000 year old black hole past Pluto that got eaten by a space monster"?

So what you are saying is that it's a 2 ammo attack.

"Jupiter-2 is used up? No problem, got something right here." :getin:

That was one of the jokes that I kept seeing on places like Futaba or Niconico. "Oh dear, we're going to run out of planets two stages after we get the attack."

Kaworu DOES make mention of Rahxephon in Alpha 3:


He says how the world he was previously in was reborn by the singing voice of a mechanical god but even that world was unable to escape the Apocalypsis; so, in the end, the MX world was gone and, in its place, the Alpha world was born.

What are the odds that in some future SRW, Kaworu will show up rubbing his neck?
