Gundam Narrative is revisionism.

uc next is bullshit i hope hathaway blows up banagher in his movie.

Gundam Narrative has a really good story. It's just told in a jaw-droppingly incompetent way.

In the novel tomino wrote of CCA, hathaway doesn't kill chan but instead quess, lol.

Yeah, a couple of the side characters and villians have satisfying conclusions, but it mainly fizzled out.

It has a second secret op that's also pretty amazing:

I love gundam but I can't stand how every series ends with some corny poo poo about the power of love, sometimes literally

Whelp just started season two of Gundam 00 and its entertaining, but this show really is just starting to poo poo itself. Beerfesting a character back to life has got to be the dumbest plot point in any Gundam series. Should have just made Sanji Crossroads the new sniper. Also Hulu doesn’t translate the location names or on screen text in the sub or dub. Usually you can figure it out based on context, but not always.

Code Geass suffered from the same thing.

I loved Wing 20 years ago (oh God ) when it was on Toonami, but every time I say "maybe I should re-watch Gundam Wing" on this forum people tell me it's bad.

lmao the first episode of Gundam Wing ends with the hero tearing up an invitation to a teenage girl's birthday party and then promising to murder her.

I haven't watched it since the Toonami days but that fact will never leave me

warning, this thread does become incredibly hateful towards trans people after a certain point. reading it is like chasing colonel kurtz, things just become more and more batshit along the way

I'm sorry but if they don't translate the foot fetish femdom lolicon anime correctly I'm going to have to become a fascist

It's also funny how a guy dropping slurs thinks words have exactly one meaning.

an actual dog posted:

I know this isn't actually the point but the word the anime girl said that was translated as "acting sus" is a slang shorthand of a word that means "acting suspicious"

gimme the GOD drat candy posted:

the best webnovel translation was the one where the guy intentionally and openly refused to translate any common noun. it was almost completely unreadable, because obviously there weren't footnotes or anything explaining what all these untranslated terms meant.

lol, I know it's cool to be like "this popular thing is trash" but all the anti re:zero stuff is pretty dumb. lol at the one guy who watched four episodes out of order and says its crap. I guess I'd grant that it takes a bit to really get good, but once you're in you're hooked. lol at some dude saying it's a power fantasy, suburu's literal only power is to die and suffer horribly. He might be one of the most cursed guys in anime. the fun of the show is seeing him be in all these hosed up situations and see how he can get out of it. especially season 2 really seemed like he was hosed, but somehow they pulled it out.

So what you're saying is women are responsible for both the isekai genre and the real mecha genre

But I also feel like it's story of an exiled people returning except oops there are already people living there is very relevant.

Just because I am dumb enough to watch over one hundred episodes of a guy getting smashed in the head with a hammer for trying to grope women, doesn't mean everyone else should.

Pener Kropoopkin posted:

Gundam Hathaway rocks, and is very atypical of a Gundam movie since it has such a narrow focus on the human scale of the conflict. Not nearly as much mecha action as you'd suppose it would have. My only real complaint is that it's inconclusive since it's just setting up a sequel show or movie.

Pener Kropoopkin posted:

My favorite thing about G Hathaway is how it pays attention to the minute details when it comes to collateral damage. Like, this was about as detailed as collateral damage got before in F91:



In Hathaway you have superheated Minovsky particles sprinkling off and melting roads & steel. It never gets explicit with how this would effect people, but it does create a palpable sense of danger for everyone who is caught in the crossfire.

The bit where they shelter in the apartment building is great because there's no way to tell, from their perspective, that a mobile suit has landed on the roof and is about to cave in that whole side of the building.

It is a bit much that every woman in Noa's crew is a stonecold smokeshow, but w/e.

It is pretty funny that Char's inner circle all just assume he's a pedophile and are OK with it.
