Hmmm. You're right. My bad there.

On Satori, the driver of Anubia, they might not have worked out what exactly they want to do with her yet. For example there were a few characters in Machine Robo Rescue who ended up very different to what they were originally. It's not due to toy sales, because Anubia hasn't even been released as a...

Very nice. Thanks for the writeup AmuroNT1.

At this point though, I'm waiting to see if they'll announce a console version of Full Boost before I shell out for more DLC.

That's sad news. Had no idea she'd been battling cancer.

RIP.

Lol, the production group is called Sam Neil.

Episode 0 on Nicovideo.

Not really my thing unfortunately.

I am still absolutely loving this series. Probably partly because Kakeru acts a lot like my son and Rinne acts a lot like my niece, but I'm finding that the series never forgets to be fun, yet they're able to throw in some very strong narrative, like how Kakeru started saying "Zetsubou teki" for eve...

Tomino's views on women are pretty apparent in his book on family values. His view is that men have a certain role in society, and women have a significantly different role. On the surface, that sounds a lot like promoting inequality, but that does not mean that either gender is any "stronger" than ...

Pardon me for butting in, but Japanese networks are VERY particular about shows starting and ending the season on schedule, especially for anime, because after all these years they still view anime as low class entertainment. If they have to cut an episode for holidays and such, there's not much the...

Wow. To have the balls to do character designs like that in this day and age, I absolutely love Nagano Takuzo. I already thought there were some amazing character designs in AGE, but the originals are really on another level. A bit disappointed that they changed so much. I would have been so much mo...

Hmmmm. Never heard the song before, but I imagine it will go VERY WELL with that whacky frantic One Piece style.

The Catalyst was rather mediocre in Extreme VS though.

Probably not a great move for Disney. Only a few of Bamco's IP's have anything close to mainstream appeal in the US, and it would be a waste to get the whole company just for those few. They would do better to grab Square Enix though. Sqeenix aren't in a particularly strong position and thus would p...

Loving the series. Great pace, likeable characters, nice mech designs, lots of fun and doesn't take itself too seriously. The ending of episode 4 completely took me by surprise. Was nice to see some humour on the villain side too. The one downer is that the cars don't have proper transformation sequ...

Unfortunately, I think the lack of split screen is more due to PS3 limitations than anything else. The game is noticeably so much choppier in split screen even with only 2 players, especially if there are lots of spamming MS in the fight. Try 4 Full Cloths and the game is practically unplayable. Exc...

Duel's looking great. It looks like it plays closer to the way it did in the SEED VS games, which is great news for me. A bit sad you can't purge, but Duel is so much weaker without Assault Shroud there's no real reason to. I'm fine with X Divider without the equipment swap. Jamil never liked using ...

The naming in Advance of Zeta seems a bit inconsistent. In Mobile Suit Illustrated, there are some different units with the same name so the only differentiation is the model number. Not sure why that is.

TezukaSensei, I'm seeing the background as a fairly dark grey as well.

So much wasted potential with this series. So the last 37 years of our epic hundred year story are glossed over as a little epilogue? The idea behind the end of the conflict was nice though. Flit finally figured out that a saviour is someone who saves people. Giant Doomsday Weapon turns out to be a ...

Coming along really nicely.

796? I admit I never got to 100% on F, but my old save game had at least 900 in profile, and Japanese wikipedia puts the unit count at about 1100. Yes, I think this count does include battleships, but it also counts recolours and customs. Unfortunately, the game is so old that it's hard to find info...

G Generation F actually had over 1000 units, including mountable units like Dodai, Base Jabber, Mega Rider and Fuun Saiki. Considering all the new series added since then, 950 still feels weak to me. :) SD Gundam has always been treated as the 3rd rate series. Most of the designs come from gashapon ...
