I haven't seen the escaflowne movie in a long time but I remember it wasnt as chill as the series. Got real grimdark. I got back into Gundam for a bit when they put out Chars Counterattack in theaters. Any other old school Gundam fans on the byob?

The first anime I ever saw was my uncle's bootleg copy of Char's Counterattack on VHS :whatup:

Gundam wing was the first series for me. Watched some others after that but g-fighter was awesome.

this is my struggle: i watched and enjoyed some gundam series as a boy, but figuring out WHICH one exactly has been tricky.


also, vision of escaflowne was metal as hell and i loved it very much, but never saw the movie? i should check it out, the mechstuff in that is maybe my favourite besides the evas

i haven't seen the series since I was a child so the movie seemed v cool. I get the vibe its p much the story compressed into a movie so make of that what you will. i'm not going to revisit the show probs. someone itt said the movie is a bit more grim and less chill? I know this is the chill anime thread but imo the movie benefited from a bit of tension*** im jazzed because I grabbed the movie set from a dying dvd store and my new posting rig... has a cd drive so ill prolly check out the special features and whatnot.

in a similar vein I liked the earthsea anime movie that like Hayao miyazakis brother or whoever put out

so many animes to discuss....

satoshi kon is indeed amazing. best part of paprika tho is the ost by far and its not even close. yea yea yea every frame a painting etc..... the ost tho. is there an earpop emoji? anyway id say paprika is like essential viewing for orb anime likers so fwtw also

kons show paranoia agent is also really really good and id list it near top of my fave animes ez pz

pls don't laugh me out of here if I inquire as to whether or not the last digimon thing was worth watching???

*** absolutely post chill animes itt tho T I A

Thanks for looking, but it was actually episode 2! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F4EnwUFIid0&t=886s I swear I was going crazy thinking I imagined this. Looking at it now, the effect is silly early CGI, but I guess I just wasn't expecting her to morph like that, and the eyes just looked so malevolent. . .

Hm. Weird how things build up in your memory.

My first anime was The Adventures of the Little Prince, which they showed on Nickelodeon when I was little, alongside Eureka's Castle and Maya the Bee. Didn't read the Little Prince book until I was an adult, at which point I realized "oh, this explains a lot about the permanent mood in the back of my head".

There is a bunch of Gundam series and range in quality. The original Universal Century timeline is kind of the elitist pick. There's plenty of "alternate universe" Gundams that are pretty self-contained. I'd just pick one that looks like it has the coolest robutts to you.

sorry i meant to post about watching the eva movie w/o talking but got sucked into some reading. basically it was cool, fave shot was dark lt. person being all hype for war with buggy eyeballs. i dissected this scene and lost the post but basically it was a very red scene

i would say it kind of strained my attention as i took a break midway to vape but overall i dont think it was a bad experience

im gonna livepost megalo boxing starting um like 2/3 thru the second ep going for as long as i can... later today

just sat through DEMON CITY SHINJUKU, excellent 80s gory violence.

i remember trying to watch one on Manga Entertainment's Sputnik streaming service which was really similar, demons invading a city. The main character had a devil dog named Cerberus, that's all I remember. I think it started with a rooftop hospital fight?

One Punch Man couldn't defeat The Tick because Tick wouldn't fight a fellow hero so there'd be no fight to win.

The law of comics crossover fights suggests one of them would think the other a villain, and although eventually they would realize the mistake and team up it always happens after at least one tiny bit of fighting (for the cover/trailer/etc). But with OPM any amount of fighting is a complete fight, so...

Also since both of them can jump to and from the moon with relative ease it might get blown up instead of Earth. We can only hope.

Edit- Alternatively if you're right and they team up immediately, villainy itself ceases to exist in about a half an hour. That's a team that makes The Defenders look like a Mahjong circle.
