Re: The Official Macross Delta Anime Thread Mk I

Odd. Where'd this misinformation about Gamlin's species come from? It's been on that wiki page since the first revision in 2013 and NOBODY ever challenged the claim? Nothing in M7 ever remotely implied that Gamlin was Zentradi in any way, especially since Macross in the 90's had already settled on Z...

Re: The Official Macross Delta Anime Thread Mk I

I always got the impression that the people involved in making Macross 30 like Isamu ALOT. For some reason in Macross 30 Isamu gets a YF-29 as part of the plot and can switch to it from his YF-19 if you choose him as a wingman, but Ozama doesn't get that option with his YF-29 (before NG+ at least) d...

Re: The Official Identify this Show Thread

I'm drawing a blank on UniverseGangster's but the "hair clip to tell the girl apart from the boy twin" sounds exactly like Linebarrels though the twins don't have white hair.

Re: The Official Gundam Iron-Blooded Orphans Anime Thread Mk IV

This is a really sweeping generalization and I don't know why you're posting it in a thread where the majority of complaints about the show had nothing to do with it breaking a power fantasy. Also, the idea that Tekkedan is more of a power fantasy than the Operation Meteor boys or Celestial Being on...

Re: Gundam Vs. Series Discussion Topic

In an ideal world, every Gundam era would have its own self contained Vs. game and Musou spin-off. But when only CE was big enough to muster its own Vs. games and G-Reco and IBO don't even have standalone games of any kind (I think? Do they even have a mobile game?), it just doesn't make sense for N...

Re: The Official Macross Delta Anime Thread Mk I

Yeah it's kinda sad that the show ended up being so underwhelming that people weren't even angry enough to complain about it.

What does everyone think of the claim that the general beats of Delta's plot mirror that of Macross 30's a little too much?

Re: The Official Macross Delta Anime Thread Mk I

Let me be clear, I don't think Walkure itself is a problem. I think that the time they spent on them could have been spent on more IMPORTANT things in the story (like actually resolving the conflict). Additionally, besides Freyja, Hayate, Mirage (and that is being generous), Messar and Mikomu, what...

Re: The Official Macross Delta Anime Thread Mk I

Delta put the focus far too much on the singers in an attempt to develop all of them. Regardless of if you think they succeeded or failed at developing all the members of Walkure I still have to go through the last six episodes, but I can already say I don't think this point is true. The members of...

Re: Say Mecha Talk, Lets Have a Brave Series Topic!

There's a very high probability that all Brave shows will finally be available in English within a few months, however discussing the details of this is against forum rules.

Re: Gundam Vs. Series Discussion Topic

Those last two deals are the same ones from last December minus the Banshee Norn for the first one I believe.

Also if you guys are still doing the Full Boost sessions, where do you schedule things? The Gundamn page hasn't updated since last June.

Re: Queries On Super Robot Wars

MNeidengard's SRW plot summaries are generally meant to be read either alongside playing the game or after when you have an overall understanding of the setting. They're not line by line transcripts or have detailed descriptions of on screen events unfortunately. The author made it clear that he tra...

Re: Gundam Vs. Series Discussion Topic

So there's a massive PSN sale on Full Boost right now where you can get the game digitally plus all the DLC for around 9500¥. Normally all the DLC by itself costs 15K¥. In light of what was revealed about Force and the lack of any news about Maxi Boost getting a PS3 port, is now a good time to nab F...

Re: It's Gundam Wing's 20th anniversary

I also remember hearing back in the day that when the show aired in Arabic countries, Relena's skirts were digitally lengthened to her ankles. Never saw any proof. I didn't catch that particular detail, but there's some merit to it because I did catch a scene where women wearing bare shoulder dress...

Re: Say Mecha Talk, Lets Have a Brave Series Topic!

Definitely Fighbird because it's the earliest Brave show available. Followed by J-Decker unless you can nab Da-Garn first.

Re: Say Mecha Talk, Lets Have a Brave Series Topic!

J-Decker is definitely one of the better Brave shows, though I wouldn't call sharing a director with Might Gaine a point in its favor. :p The drama and humanization of the Brave Police can a get a little over the top and stupid at times, and I really wish Ishida Atsuko toned down the character desig...

All MG kits of the Wing Ka., Wing Zero Custom and Proto Zero have the same upper chest hatch design regardless of the bottom hatches shown in the anime.

Re: Tales Series

I think the story could refer to both of them.

Piggybacking the final boss is a bit tricky because you have to do it from his light pillars or Sword Deluge. His physical attack makes him invincible for the duration.
