S.D. posted:I think the reason is 'because the pilot isn't a Newtype'. Newtypes use their special space-evolved brains to remotely direct funnels (and getting around the whole 'Minovsky particles block off all forms of radio transmission' thing that's in UC Gundam), so non-Newtype-based machines need a wire system to guide their funnels and funnel-like weapons back to the robot. See also: the MP Nu Gundam that Corbray gets in Alpha 3. This is in fact actually the reason. Only Newtypes and machines with independent programming get to be off the wires. For manually controlled bits, you have to have the wires. For proof, note that any Gundam mech with wired bits don't require Newtype for them. This applies to OGs, as well.

thetruegentleman posted:Probably meant to be Auslöse then, so: "LCL filling in. Starting movement. Starting the NERV terminal. Linking the plug suit. Releasing from the left clothes." Needless to say, still makes no drat sense. That's because the full thing is supposed to be: It's Banpresto and anime in general so I suppose we should be grateful it's not complete gibberish.

Rabidredneck posted:It was only a couple years ago I finally got to see the original Getter Robo series, and it was as good as I've heard. The first exposure I ever had to the Getter series was the typically americanized version of Getter Robo G called Starvengers as a little kid. I remember thinking it was the coolest show ever on Saturday mornings, but when I finally got a chance to watch the Original Getter Robo G I realized how messed up the Starvengers version was. I think the only other anime series that was even more screwed over was Mazinger Z's translation into Tranzor Z, though that's an entirely different rant. Grandpappy Tetsujin 28, or GIGANTOR, would like to have a word with you.

heavybassX posted:The fact that Haken from Endless Frontier showed up in Moon Dwellers plus there is references to Reiji and Xiaomu in said game has convinced me that they are going to show up in specially designed mechs that allow them to use their various guns and swords. I can't say that they'll make an appearance in OGs, personally; the Gespenst Haken was a special concession because of Haken and Aschen's very explicit tie to the Shadow Mirrors (and because it was an actual plot point from Endless Frontier) . It would be an incredibly difficult sell for Reiji and Xiaomu to suddenly have twenty-meter tall robots custom-built for them.

AradoBalanga posted:Plus, Reiji and Xiamou are almost certainly covered by the Namco x Capcom license. So, in order to use them in anything would require the SRW staff to walk to another floor of the building to discuss licensing particulars with the Namco x Capcom/Project X Zone people. Whereas with Haken and Aschen, those two are straight-up Banpresto Originals and don't require the SRW staff to do the Featured Series Licensing TangoTM to use them in projects. I imagine it wouldn't be terribly difficult to convince them, at the very least. That's only one of the inherent problems with the idea, though. Brunom1 posted:I'm at least expecting Suzuka to come over - she has her own bot (which looks sooo cool) and could join Latooni and Shine's Idol band. Now I'm just imagining how ludicrously complex controlling a twenty-meter robot with puppet strings would be. Materant fucked around with this message at 04:51 on Sep 4, 2016 |

TheLastRoboKy posted:Never underestimate the lengths a villain will go to just to be a dickhole even if it's a complete waste of time. It's not even the first time this trick has been used! In the old Mazinger Z manga Count Brocken has a mechabeast which is covered in embedded glass chambers, which he proceeds to fill with women (that he's stripped naked for some reason possibly involving Nagai's love of titties) so there's not a single point on his mechabeast that can be be attacked without killing someone. I believe they actually use that bit in SRWZ3 to some extent. Yeah, Brocken does actually use that bit in Z3.1 in the fourth stage. Except it's also rigged with explosives so he's not allowed to attack anything. You all remember that stage as "wait what the gently caress how did I game over" if you've played Z3.1.

Onmi posted:Same for Kai, he's basically, by the time of Unicorn, the final surviving and active pilot of the White Base. Hayato died during the first Neo Zeon war and Amuro just vanished at the end of the second. Active is probably not the word I'd use there since he never pilots an MS again after the war with Zeon concludes.

Turn A kind of needs a special set of circumstances to not feel completely shoehorned in. It's great but it needs the setting to be built around its inclusion. It's the reason we haven't seen it outside of Alpha Gaiden and the Z series, it clashes too hard with most mecha series, and unless you go full-on post-apocalypse you just simply can't make its big reveal work.

Ruri pokes at how they outright ripped the name off the Soviets’ Operation Bagration back in WW2 (named after Pyotr Ivanovich Bagration, Russian general in the Napoleonic wars).

SyntheticPolygon posted:I might have just lost it in the updates but I don't think Hugo and Aqua have really had much interaction with the other characters either. I remember Aqua and Rain had a couple of scenes but I can't recall anything else, maybe because of that they don't really stand out too much to me. I kind of think they could use some stronger connections to a few of the other series. Banpresto may have realized this shortcoming as well, since they made Hugo and Aqua much more of a presence in 2nd OGs.

MX does still take sort of a side seat to the major plots of 2nd OGs (D, Alpha 2), but it's much less egregious than in its own game. MX's plot is on more of a personal scale anyway, so it works out.
