I played MXP several years ago and had a lot of fun despite the HP bloat and not understanding a word of the story, so it's interesting to be following this. I didn't really like RahXephon as a show at all (Great OST though, and I generally like the mecha and monster designs), though I'm curious about how MX's adaptation handles the details.

RahXephon felt more like how the NGE manga has been described to me more than the anime itself or Rebuild, though going into why would involve spoiler talk.

I can't believe I'm saying this about an anime from the duo behind SEED and Destiny, but I'm going to watch Dendoh now. It sounds fun!

Yeah its weird to see Asuka not only here but just flat out ordered not to sortie. Reminds me of that Vatican Treaty thing from Rebuild 2.22, sort of.

Really now. And here I thought Shinji and Wonder Girl were doing all the work. What do I do?

Because I can't read Japanese, when this choice came up I thought it would decide whether Kouji got the TFO or Mazinger Z for the rest of the game, and I was afraid of losing the unit I didn't pick altogether. I went with the Mazinger of course, but that it only changed the costume is interesting and cool.EclecticTastes posted:If we're talking about old anime dubs, may as well share the story of how my cool grandfather got me into SRW nearly a decade after his death, and how G4 came close to preventing it.

Much like a mecha protagonist's grandfather, he was killed by a sinister organization that operates well outside the laws of man and god, or in other words, the tobacco industry, hey-oooooo!

For contrast's sake, let's all remember that Tohru Furuya was also the voice of Yamcha in Dragon Ball. He's been on both of the extreme ends of the badass spectrum!

When I played A Portable I didn't realize you could increase a unit's accuracy with equipment until I was almost done with the game.  The MX Portable HP bloat felt generous in comparison. Also Rain was best girl in G Gundam. Raxivace fucked around with this message at 05:08 on Oct 12, 2016 |

Broken Loose posted:You say that now, but the way it worked was that if you used it too many times during the game then Akira passes out permanently just before the final boss fight. (They did a similar thing for SRX combinations in Alpha, as well, where you only got to combine a certain number of times total over the course of the game)

I don't know that I can call it good, but Zeorymer is Zeorymer as hell. It's only four episodes long so if you don't like it, it's not a huge investment of time anyways.

EclecticTastes posted:What I'm getting from all this is that much of Hades Project Zeorymer is the mecha anime equivalent of Funny Games. Just a bad person doing horrible things to people who didn't deserve it (well, in the cases of the Hakkeshu, didn't deserve it at first, and even then Masaki goes way too far), and getting away with it, with the whole thing framed heroically as a cynical indictment of the audience. Given the commentary, I doubt the execution is as good as Funny Games, but it's an interesting concept if I'm reading it right.

I've never thought the "Ayato is a Mulian!" twist ever landed with much weight in the anime. I think I actually like it a little better here with the response from the Magnate Ten people and Isshiki being a dick.Alacron posted:Man, was Isshiki always this much of dickhead? I have a tough time remembering Rahxephon characters that aren't Ayato or Haruka or Elvy.

Oh man, I finally got caught up on this after having fallen behind around Christmas. Brunom, that you're able to crank out these updates so quickly is something that both impresses and terrifies me.

AradoBalanga posted:And then MXP goes one further with its HP bloat, thus prolonging your suffering. Because I don't read Japanese and I didn't use a guide for most of it, I didn't even realize at first that you had to kill both guys within the same turn at first. It was the worst.

EclecticTastes posted:I'm thinking the series would be Evangelion (original, not Rebuild), Fafner, RahXephon (minus the ending), Bokurano, Ideon, Zambot 3, Shin Mazinger Zero (only the "Juuzou Kabuto goes insane and evil" universe), Mazinkaiser SKL, New Getter Robo (only the bad future from that horrible dream Ryouma had), Zeta Gundam, Victory Gundam, Char's Counterattack (actual CCA, like in Alpha 2, not just mechs), Gundam 0080 (except Chris learns what happened to Bernie and no you can't save him), Tekkaman Blade, Detonator Orgun, Nadesico (with Prince of Darkness), Drakengard (Angelus is like a mech), and Sergeant Frog. Maybe Code Geass, too, if he can change the ending to be less hopeful. Anything I might have missed?

On NG+ or something it could be an MP Eva.  Alacron posted:You know what would be really neat if they ever do Zeorymer again? If Great Zeorymer showed up not as secret unit, but as a boss long after the finale of the show. You know, to keep things relevant beyond just "Oh, here's Omzack again 20 missions later, kill him again okay?"
