Re: Sunrise's stance on canon

Again, no fictional canon is perfect anyway. Star Wars had a huge multimedia range of fiction and it had to be seperated into tiers as to what counted per Lucas himself, lesser works that were still official productions, fun stories that don't count and tripe Lucasfilm regretted having rubber stampe...

Maybe Shimon uses Gunpla made by Bandai America or Europe.

Re: The Official Gundam Build Fighters Try Anime Thread Mk I

When a sequel suffers a staff change at the level of director, it's logic to point the finger at them in assuming they're key to the problem. The actual direction of the show is subtle but noticeably different from the first. Given we live in a media heavy age I'm surprised more people don't see it.

Re: The Official Gundam Build Fighters Try Anime Thread Mk I

I wish the art quality would improve. MS constantly look doughy and this week it really let down what should have been a turning point for the show. Pretty sure Destiny looked better in its own show 10 years ago. It's like the new director doesn't understand or care about fight scenes and thinks the...

Re: The Official Gundam Build Fighters Try Anime Thread Mk I

In a way, I wonder if the mentality we're seeing in Yuuma and others is partly down to the new overall sponsor. Yuuki's whole arc in BF was he was unhappy with the promoted views of the second Meijin, so wanted to become his successor to promote Gunpla as being about fun and creativity....now we're ...

Re: The Official Gundam Build Fighters Try Anime Thread Mk I

Yuuma is off putting to me because of his attitude. He worked in the first 2 episodes because he didn't talk much and per his flashback seemed to be unhappy with his path, like he was merely surviving in the Model Building Club rather than living his dream. Past that, all he does is take the same sh...

Re: The Official Gundam Build Fighters Try Anime Thread Mk I

That was how I took it, possibly extended to a pun based on certain Gundam pilots habit to opt for a self destruct when they can't win. The fact the team is sat there right after in an obvious daze seems to confirm that reading as they clearly have no fall back for when a field doesn't have water.

Re: The Official Gundam Build Fighters Try Anime Thread Mk I

My own bet is either Yuuma contacts Sei OR we find out Sei has gone into the same job as his dad, with Sekai encountering him in hobo disguise.

Re: The Official Gundam Build Fighters Try Anime Thread Mk I

The opening gag was great. For a second I was expecting the obvious joke of them getting a desert or similar but the arctic tundra works out funnier, with them diving dramatically only to find all the water is frozen solid. Them being offed without a word before even the titles was fun too. The act...

Re: The Official Gundam Build Fighters Try Anime Thread Mk I

I don't really get the MA rule. I can see why in a contest it's done to be fair to other teams, but it seems to hint at weaker battles. I mean remember the fun in season one of the Gaw carrying all the guys who hated Fellini? An MA might be an unfair advantage to a team but surely that means a bette...

Re: Sunrise's stance on canon

Ironically, the lockout canon creates is arguably why so many Gundam productions are now original universes. Canon is great for the dedicated fans but it becomes quite a lockout. Doctor Who has kept the same canon for 50 years but only because the nature of the show is non-linear and allows for it t...

Or Okawara is yet again mix and matching design elements because give the poor man a rest, he's designed more Gundams than anyone should ever have to.

Re: The Official Gundam Build Fighters Try Anime Thread Mk I

This is partly why I hate the G renames. There's a logic to that specific one but with Try people just assumed too much when really nothing about Build Burning suggests God Gundam as a base.

I agree near completely with the last few posts. If this was some manga running in a kid's title I'd just ignore it, but coming on the heels of a great fun little show that was able to sell kits while at the same time never getting too serious or forgetting to keep things fun......what the hell happ...

Hey, Celestial Being's Gundams lost scraps of paint.

To paraphrase Batman, "He wrecked my Gundam. Between a couple of guys that's real personal".

Re: The Official Gundam Build Fighters Try Anime Thread Mk I

We knew it was coming but the fact Winning turns into a big first for Burning is dissapointing. Pre-show they mentioned they realised they over used Build Knuckle and would learn from this mistake....except they keep letting Sekai punch and kick things. Would giving his Gundam some beam sabers be so...

Re: The Official Gundam Build Fighters Try Anime Thread Mk I

This is the same world that has a Gunpla Mafia and undercover international Gunpla cops.

The logic that Try is applying is arguably more out of place.
