Re: The Official Gundam: The Witch From Mercury Anime Thread Mk I

Totally AGE was sort of a bests hits of Gundam (mainly focusing on the UC), that at least tried to add more to its backstory, however for the most part it dosen't really add anything new to the setting that isn't borrowed from earlier works : Rostroulan is basically Jabrou, there aren't really any ...

GBO2 has come to Steam!
Has the steam version gotten better since it's horrible release?

The rifle is Guncannon's rifle though.
Really? I guess that shows how much l paid attention to the Guncannon.

Re: The Official Gundam: The Witch From Mercury Anime Thread Mk I

Now that it's all over, should I watch G-Witch? Is it worth my time? I wanted to wait until the show was over before watching, not really a big fan of watching something week to week.

Re: Project G: Upcoming Grendizer Project

Do Kouji and Sayaka not return in Ota's ending of Great? Yes, Kouji at the end of Ota's Mazinger he was badly injured and turned into a cyborg. They both show up at the end of Great to help, but Mazinger and Diana are heavily damaged leaving Tetsuya to fight on his own. So when exactly did Ota writ...

Re: Project G: Upcoming Grendizer Project

Ota's version of Great Mazinger is has a dark ending too:
Spoiler
Dr. Kenzo gets killed when Great Marshall of Hell attacks the main base, and Tetsuya goes to fight Hell by himself, which leads to him sacrificing himself by blowing up Great killing Hell.

Re: Project G: Upcoming Grendizer Project

I haven't read any of the Ota stuff, how does the ending differ? In the Ota manga Duke loses his patience with Earth and to keep it safe from the Vegan Empire and themselves, Duke decides to conquer Earth himself with the Grendizer. Tensions break out between parties including the Empire and the Ea...

Re: Project G: Upcoming Grendizer Project

If this ends up being the Shin Mazinger of Grendizer I wonder would they include anything from the Ota manga where it had a completely different ending from the show. Also I had been thinking that if Dynamic were to make an animated work based on a property l would like to see adaptation of Mazinsag...

Re: Project G: Upcoming Grendizer Project

Agreed, it would be nice to see some older series resurface. Didn't they do a God Mazinger anime back in the day? I vaguely remember the Manga but it's been a while. Yes they did a God Mazinger anime of it back in 1984, I would like to see Dynamic do adaptation similar to Shin. Liger is the least l...

Re: Project G: Upcoming Grendizer Project

With Grendizer coming back and getting a large spotlight I hope some other properties get a resurface, I would love to see God Mazinger, Liger, get another adaptation or an animated version of Shin Mazinger Zero, Getter Robo Evolution.

Re: Project G: Upcoming Grendizer Project

I didn't realize that Shin Mazinger did poorly. I've been watching it the last couple days on Crunchyroll, and it's very entertaining, plus it seems like it does bring in some stuff from the manga. Really it seems like what you'd expect from a Go Nagai adaptation(and I mean that positively) so I'm ...

Re: Project G: Upcoming Grendizer Project

Ah right, I forgot SRW had some mobile games. I think the last time Grendizer was in a mainline series was around 2008 or 2009, which is the around the same time Shin Mazinger Impact Z aired. Here we are 13 years later and we still haven't gotten a sequel with Shin Great Mazinger =( but a new Grend...

Re: Armored Core 6 details just leaked

I would love to see AC comeback, I've been a fan since 1998 got in with Master of the Arena loved it and have played all but 2 of the games. I'd say my favorite of the series would be between AC2 and Last Raven.

Re: Questions regarding the SRW Huckebein

I remember the rumor about downplaying the Huckebein showing up around the time when SRW OG The Inspector changed out the Huckebein mk 3 with the Guarbein and the Exbein, and then the Exbein also being added in SRW OG the 2nd which had all the Huckebeins from the series get destroyed in one mission.

Re: Striker Packs

Hmm for me it would have to come down to the Noir Striker with the Perfect Striker, IWSP, Ootori being not far behind. They take the best of each regular Striker and combine them in to a nice package.
