Dorvack and the mech genre

After looking at an older thread on "Cornerstone" Mech design (i.e. shows that had a large effect design wise on the industry), Could Dorvack be considered an example? While transforming mech were common at the time(Though Dorvack does predate the Transformers series), the Powered Suits th...

Re: The Official Gundam SEED FREEDOM Anime Thread Mk I

Looking at the older threads from when the movie was first announced, it seems the posters were right when they guessed Eurasia would actually be the setting for part of the story(though in this case it doesn't involve the Eurasian Federation)

Re: Urdr Hunt mecha thread

The mech design are great in the Post Disaster Era are great, so it's nice to see more of them, Some of them even have model kit release's, but there doesn't seem to be any info yet on when the animation project will launch.

Re: Fukudas best work

For good or for bad Cross Ange is one of his more memorable non Gundam works. I've found Cross Ange to be a mixed bag. The story and worldbuilding are quite interesting, plus the mech designs are really neat looking. However it does get a bit too mean spirited (even considered that is part of the st...

Earth Alliance Fleet Development History?

So is there any information on the development of the EA Fleet? Like was the Drake the long running first ship, and the Nelson introduced after the development of the Mobile Armors? Also what led to the development of the Mobius? Was it based on a fighter jet?

Re: The Official Gundam Hathaway Anime Thread Mk I

So how different is the MS in the book? Does the novel feature MS from earlier in the timeline , or does it mainly focus on the four units introduced ?

Re: The Official Gundam SEED FREEDOM Mecha Thread Mk I

Thank's I'd forgotten about that, looking closer the Nelson also has Mobile Armor storage hangars, so it is actually easier to refit for MS ( The Agamemnon and Nelson seem like they'd be newer ships anyway if they were actually built to house Mobile Armors) As for the Millennium, maybe there's anoth...

Refit of ships

So in various timelines (most notably UC and CE ) pre MS ship are Refitted to carry MS, so what exactly does a refit entail? Is it just rebuilding existing ships with hangars or do they also make new models of existing lines with these refits?

Re: The Official Gundam SEED FREEDOM Mecha Thread Mk I

So ship related line art has been released for all the factions. We see several of the new ships though we may never find out what happened to the Minerva , and it really seems odd that the federation never mass produced a MS Carrier ship, particularly during the two year period between the first an...

Mobile Suit Gundam: Silver Phantom

So maybe this is an odd question (I don't really know how VR Animation works), But will Silver Phantom only be a VR "Anime" or will it be adapted into an animation format as well?

Re: The Official Macross Delta Anime Thread Mk I

It's neat to hear more positivity regarding Crunchyroll, (they do at time have issues with stuff not always playing, but that's usually fixed fairly quickly). I 'm not a very technical person , so I'm unsure how exactly these services work on a technical level, I've just found Crunchyroll has a very...

Re: The Official Macross Delta Anime Thread Mk I

Crunchyroll is my favorite streaming site, but they do have technical issues from time to time, so that may well be a factor. Plus Disney has had issue with various shows and movies underperforming (particularly involving Marvel and Star Wars) so maybe they thought getting franchise like this would ...

That may well be the case ,and it unfortunately wouldn't be the first time for the Franchise that behind the scenes business issues affect things.

Re: Metallic Rouge

I'll admit that once the show got going it has been kind of enjoyable from an action stand point, so a visual showcase also works. But I agree the storyline is more than a little disjointed The fact everybody involved seems to kick Nean's around doesn't help, then again neither do the lead Nean's wa...

Re: Bang Brave Bang Bravern

There definitely appears to be some kind of stable time loop thing going on, so Lewis wanting to ensure it remains fixed makes sense Also There's the rather bizarre encounter between Lulu and Superbia at the end, to which even Superbia himself is confused. It seems though that Lulu wants to pilot S...
