Fafner Manga?
So has anyone read the Manga version of Fafner? How is it? There are only 2 volumes so do they skip parts of the story? Or do they fill in other parts of the story from the Anime?

Re: New Macross anime from Studio SUNRISE
Kaiba Wrote: Southern Cross was the show that probably never should have gotten made. It went through several genre changes during development, its staff really didn't have the talent pool to do a mecha series, and for those and other reasons so many details of its story, setting, designs, and even...

Re: New Macross anime from Studio SUNRISE
Makes sense really the units would eventually be retired (unlike Gundam AGE where the Genoace II remains in service for 50 years, even after new units are available). As for the merchandising: aside from Macross being the most popular of the three by a wide margin, I 've heard that due to numerous b...

Re: IBO Gekko Manga House Nadira/Ollerus lore question?
There's not a lot of additional information out there aside from the manga, however House Nadria did side with Rustal over McGillis to begin with, however this was only under the previous leaders schemes. With Deira taking over the house and Jizil Jizin getting killed in his attempt to uncover the t...

Re: The Official Gundam: The Witch From Mercury Anime Thread Mk I
Totally AGE was sort of a bests hits of Gundam (mainly focusing on the UC), that at least tried to add more to its backstory, however for the most part it dosen't really add anything new to the setting that isn't borrowed from earlier works : Rostroulan is basically Jabrou, there aren't really any f...

Re: Synduality Noir
So far it seems like a good show, albeit with some rather common storylines. Still its a very entertaining show and I look forward to seeing how it goes, especially because it's supposed to have 24 episodes apparently. So far the show seems relatively light hearted, Though with some admittedly goofy...

Re: The Official Gundam: The Witch From Mercury Anime Thread Mk I
Honestly Ad Stella seems like a neat world that ultimately was underutilized plot wise. We never really explore many of the other companies and their mobile suits and that's not counting the major plot threads like the disadvangted Earth citizens which still isn't exactly solved at the end. . Which ...

Re: The Official Gundam SEED FREEDOM Anime Thread Mk I
I'll admit to liking Luna/Shinn, though that's probably more because the VA's got married IRL oddly enough, for a series that has them as a more well written couple try Captain Earth. In Seed Destiny they kind of oddly get together right after Shinn supposedly kills Meyrin and Athrun(obviously both ...

Re: The Official Gundam: The Witch From Mercury Anime Thread Mk I
My favorite designs would be the Beguir-Pente, Darilbalde and Dilanza Sol, as well as any non Ariel Gundam (I have nothing against the design, I just generally like the secondary Gundams more than the main ones). As for the writing issues we probably won't get an answer until/unless someone gives an...

Re: The Official Gundam: The Witch From Mercury Anime Thread Mk I
I wonder if one of the big issues in G-Witches' writing is that the writers intended some of the plot points differently from how the audience perceived them. Like I think that the whole Guel/Suletta Duel was a " I want my beloved to be happy" thing , however due to lack of development it ...

Re: Mundane Technologies of the Universal Century?
Ranka's quirky phone is probably at least tied to the fact the character is supposed to be Moe. Giving her a cute quirky device is probably the out of universe reason for that. In Universe it does suit Ranka's personality, but as has been stated there are quite a number of different phones available...

Re: The Official Gundam SEED FREEDOM Anime Thread Mk I
Seems likely the EA is all but gone, that being said with Kira and Lacus in charge, hopefully ZAFT will lose many of their more severe issues . Of course the issues that ZAFT were ten times worse in the EA, so with more reasonable people in charge maybe we'll see a situation like the Epilogue in Gun...

Re: Mundane Technologies of the Universal Century?
As for Internet/E-Mail, Victory Gundam has Uso E-Mail Katejnia (did E-Mail exist in 1993, because that looks like what he's using).
Really Macross does a much better job of showing everyday civilian tech in its show( as well as civilian life in general), like Ranka's Lizard phone thing in Frontier.

Re: Synduality Noir
So is anybody watching this? It seems like a bit of a spiritual successor to Comet Lucifer, with some Evangelion references (Noir seems like a Rei Ayanami Expy, while the Johngasmaker is painted in Unit 1's color scheme)

Re: The Official Gundam: The Witch From Mercury Anime Thread Mk I
Totally, none of the relationships in the series were well written, another issue stemming from filler overtaking storyline potential. I agree that Guel ended up being one of the few characters who was actually developed enough to get his own arc through out the show. Even issues in rushing the stor...

Re: The Official Gundam SEED FREEDOM Anime Thread Mk I
Definitely As Chris said in his review of Destiny, it seems Shinn was demoted following Durandal's death, and the collapse of his ambitions. So we will probably see him like Dearka in a (probably customized) Mass Produced ZAFT MS. It will probably be a new design, though I hope they stay with the ZA...

Re: The Official Gundam: The Witch From Mercury Anime Thread Mk I
Gundam X seems to not be streaming anywhere, but it is readily available on Blu Ray/DVD. It would probably be a good series for Newcomers as it blends serious plots and issues, with some more light hearted scenes, with out either dominating too much. Seed would also be a good entry point, especially...

Chirico's Abilities
Spoiler
So in VOTOMS its established Chirico is an Overman with strong resistance and durability, which ties into the shows greater conspiracy. Aside from that how powerful is Chirico really? Is he immortal? Is he indestructible? Does him rejecting his Overman status at the end effect his powers in any way?

Synduality Noir
So Its been stated that Synduality Noir will air on Disney+ , but is it going to be a Simulcast or will it all the episodes air later? Most articles are a bit vague about this.
