Re: Cross Ange- New Sunrise x Fukuda mecha show
The REFERENCE is strong with this episode. Dougram. Dragonar. Prince of Tennis. GPX. SEED. And... Reconguista Cola! Again, this is Fukuda we're talking about; he doesn't have a single original bone in his body. :P If you're referring to the Crab Gunner cameo, may I remind you Sunrise is no stranger...

Tomino's take on Haman and Char
Do his Zeta novels explain anything about Haman and Char's relationship pre-Gryps Conflict?

Re: Cross Ange- New Sunrise x Fukuda mecha show
Just re-watched the last two episodes, and I have this to say: there's an idea. but then, the question is how did Embryo managed to put Mana in humans. he is, in his own words, a creator. Problem is, given what Sala mentioned in episode 11 about "false citizens," and "Aura," I th...

Re: Cross Ange- New Sunrise x Fukuda mecha show
given all the Ideon references so far, maybe an IDE equivalent would later surface? Think the Mana is the Ide expy, and that it's angry that Embryo injected it into humans, with the DRAGONS as its method of retaliation? Also, since we now have an Ideon Gun expy, think we should get an Ideon Sword e...

Re: Zaku II Kais and Stahlhelms
When you mean "alternate head configuration," is it the normal head given an upgrade for a certain purpose, or does it mean a new head, like the GM Head on Karen's Ground Type Gundam in 08th MS Team and the Zeta Zaku in ZZ?PowerdGNFlag wrote:It's an alternate head configuration.

Zaku II Kais and Stahlhelms
Is the Zaku II Kai B-Type really wearing a Stahlhelm as seen here, or is it a different head?

Re: Cross Ange- New Sunrise x Fukuda mecha show
Anyways, back on topic. Anyone here think Embryo is more or less George Glenn of this series? Umm, not really. George Glen was the first coordinator...so whoever was the first one to use mana would be considered closer to that. Furthermore, Embryo is clearly one of the main (if not the main) villai...

Re: Cross Ange- New Sunrise x Fukuda mecha show
You just spoke my mind. Aside from that, there are these references to Ideon: 1. Ange getting whipped and humiliated in episode 10 by Sylvia being a reference to Ideon episode 12, wherein Harulu had Guhaba strip Karala and made every subordinate of hers laugh at Karala. 2. Ange and Hilda in the bri...

Mamoru Nagano and Vifam
Didn't know where to ask this, but since it involves mechanical designers, I might as well put it here. Anyways, where is it mentioned Nagano designed for Ginga Hyoryu (Galactic Drifter)/Round Vernian Vifam anyways? I mean, from where I've read, it was only Kunio Okawara who did mechanical designs f...

Re: Kill Em'All ending for SEED
But with this one, I believe the source is an old interview that Gunota Headlines translated back in the day. The gist was that Flay would be sent back to Archangel carrying a bomb which kills her, Kira and Sei and costs Athrun an arm. Fukuda claimed Morosawa was the one to talk him out of it. Sour...

Kill Em'All ending for SEED
Coming out of Densetsu Kyojin (Legendary Giant God)/Space Runaway Ideon, and I got this to ask: Was it true Fukuda really intended to end SEED in a Kill 'em All ending wherein Kira dies and Athrun loses an arm, but couldn't do it because the voice actors opposed it?

Re: Cross Ange- New Sunrise x Fukuda mecha show
While i'm glad that this episode fleshed out Hilda as more than just a foil to Ange, I wonder if she ever truly loved anyone since she admits that she let herself become a sex slave to Zola but she supposedly mourned her loss with sincerity enough to try to kill Ange who she blamed for the accident...

Re: Real-Life Advantages of Mechs in Military Use
But why not have the pilots legs control the mecha, with pedals, and that, given my earlier suggestion of "legs for short-distance, wheels for long-distance," their should be a switch that goes from either walking mode or wheel mode? When you have 2 or more modes, you are wasting your pa...

Re: Female mechanical designers
Anyways, onward to the question: Are there any women who designed mecha for various shows (aside from Kaishaku's Kannazuki no Miko), or is this proof of Japan's misogyny? This is a really stupid and sweeping generalization. Don't spout more nonsense like this or you'll get an official warning. All ...

You quoted that whole enormous block of text for no reason, and then asked such a vague and unclear question at the end... "Right" in what sense? Yes, they're actual Japanese words. The elaborate rules the poster came up with based on these terms seem to be basically made up, though. &quo...

If there were actual new information in that post, it would be worth reevaluating the question - I mean, this is kind of an important issue for fans, right?

Re: Cross Ange- New Sunrise x Fukuda mecha show
Given Jill mentioning "Libertus," does that mean she's plotting a coup d'etat?
