Have you seen the ova version? I don't know how different it is but what your describing isn't how I remember plus.

No joke age actually had some good music. Some people think it also think it had good mechs, those people need a padded cell, but the music lads are alright. L'arc en ciel is a legit band though. Got me into some cool rear end Japanese rock for a minute

Yeah, the drop in quality is there but way overblown, there's obviously some nonsense meddling with the plot at the beginning and then they have to rush to catch up during the China saga, but they manage it all pretty well. The fights are where it really suffers, pretty much the only memorable fight from R2 is the last one, very dissapointing compared to the fun ground focused tactical fights of the first series.

I think it's weird the franchise is so known for it's triangles, half the series in it the love triangles feel so non existent that you might as well have cut 'em and focused on the real romance.

Darth Walrus posted:That would mean you miss out on far too much Savage savagery, though. FMP spoilers Did they skip the fight with him in the Savage fighting the mech he usually uses that I can't remember the name of? If so that's lame as hell, I remember reading that in it's extremely poorly translated glory and thinking that it'd be sick as poo poo in an anime Midjack posted:It's ok; it goes pretty fast and sticks to the main novels so there's not any comedy interludes with short story adaptations but it covers the plot well enough. It goes through Continuing On My Own, Burning One Man Force, and Come Make My Day. Dancing Very Merry Christmas came between TSR and IV is skipped since it got a radio drama and doesn't have a lot of impact on the overall plot anyway. The Laevatein only gets one fight, in the next to last episode, so if that's what you want you can cut to that one. That kinda sounds lame, rushing through three lns in 12 episodes seems weak as hell, at least it got finished I guess Edit: Just downloaded, I didn't realize they used CGI, absolutely unwatchable, I'll just use the LN's as reference Gaius Marius fucked around with this message at 17:27 on Mar 14, 2021 |

Midjack posted:No, the arena fights in the Crossbow and going against the Mithril defector in the M9 still happen, albeit in the space of like 4 episodes so it's kind of fast but still there. And they didn't finish the series, it has another season to go before they make it to the end. The PS4 game isn't a bad way to experience the rest of the plot, and it's even fully voiced in both English and Japanese. I am glad people got to experience the end of FMP even if they didn't wanna read the novels, I have some problems with a lot of it, but as a whole it was a good time and people deserve that.

Marx Headroom posted:Mind explaining what you mean in spoilers for me? I'm almost done and yes it's insanely fun, I get pretty good Pacific Rim/G Gundam vibes. I'm definitely checking out some of the other Getter stuff after this Like the other dude said the original director took his ball and went home after the third episode which is pretty obvious once you know it cause the tone totally changes, the plot also just wibble wobbles a lot and new peeps show up every ten seconds without good introductions.

How real you want? Macross is good if you can tolerate some JPop and some dumb bullshit in the sequels, Geass is never really real and abandons the pretense early in season 2 but is a strong show. Big O has a heavy mech which isn't real but it feels good verisimilitudelly

I honestly couldn't tell you, I know a lot of people like the new gundams and the new macross isn't totally hated, but the Mecha genre as a whole is a lot smaller than it once was. I can tell you Captain Earth was bland as poo poo but that's about the last show I watched as it was airing

Eureka Seven straddles the line but might be of interest, It's not got a lot of action but the character work is pretty solid. The sequel and movie are apparently abysmal though I haven't watched so some discretion is advised.

chiasaur11 posted:It's still really funny to me that Macross and Gundam had overlapping shows with PMC protagonists in their last mainline entries. I feel the diffrence is they had diffrent reasons for using the PMC concept. In macross frontier at least, it seems like they needed alto to be in the military, but they didn't want to deal with all the social issues coming with that so they make their weird lawful good pmc, of course then they treat alto being folded into NUNS as this turning point later in the show IBO was exploring the "Dark" underside of society or whatever so you get an intensely nepotistic group of mercenaries who're one hop skip away from being a death cult
