Re: The Official Gundam Build Fighters Anime Thread Mk IV
I've been wowed at a lot of cameos in this episode. Did they even hire the some of VAs back just to reprise their cameos?

And yes, Moonlight Butterfly is of no use against Gyan Vulcan. We should ought to thank Sazaki for that. Now the Turn-A fans will scream "heresy! Moonlight Butterfly is supposed to be the most powerful Gundam attack ever!" as they learned their precious Turn-X is below the Gyan in the Gundam food chain and have some comfort when the new Fenice showed up.

Re: The Official Gundam Build Fighters Anime Thread Mk IV
Am I the only one who LOL'd just a bit at the "Fenice Rinascita"'s name? "Rinascita" is Italian for "Rebirth", which I thought was neat - as well as oddly appropriate in more ways than one, given that rebirth after death is kind of a phoenix's schtick.
Ambivalent on the design itself; I like that it can transform again, and there are some things I like about it aesthetically, not least of which is that it looks a lot like how I visualized a symetrically-designed Fenice would, but some things about it I don't like.
Other than that, I loved this episode, the highlight of which, for me, was seeing how GOOD Sei's control skills are now. Clearly, he's learned a lot.
And unfortunately, next episode we see the Exia Dork Matter in action *grumbles*
By the way, Miss Sazabi does look a lot better in animation than the real Gunpla, but I still hate it.

Re: The Official Gundam Build Fighters Anime Thread Mk IV
Wow, so... many... cameos. Was I the only one so busy trying to spot characters that it was hard to keep up with the subtitles?
I have to admit I'm glad that the series will wrap soon, because I'm not sure I'd want to see what Caroline would do to Nils after a couple more meetings.
For being such a minor character Sei's dad seems to have had a pretty big impact on a lot of people, starting to wonder if he'll end up arresting the Chairman for whatever nefarious scheme he pulls out of his hat in the end.

Agreed, the Dark Matter also looks better animated but, still not a fan; and as an aside how is that considered black and red? It looks more purple to me, maybe burgundy at best.Dark Duel wrote:By the way, Miss Sazabi does look a lot better in animation than the real Gunpla, but I still hate it.

Edit: GBF is so getting a second season! And has anyone else noted that Reiji has part of the Zeon symbol in his shirt collar?

Re: The Official Gundam Build Fighters Anime Thread Mk IV
Honestly, I thought the new Fenice's elements looked like they came from the Kyrios family more than AGE-2.

Re: The Official Gundam Build Fighters Anime Thread Mk IV
I'm quite on the fence with the new Fenice. On the one hand, really love the new head (I've always preferred "mouth-less" plates), the overall bulkier design of the suit, and the new shield. On the other hand, I've grown to love Fenice's asymmetry, even though I generally don't like asymmetric MS. Its part of what makes the design so unique, so part of me does feel like this new design kind of takes away to the unique-ness of it and just made it a bulkier Wing Gundam with two guns.

I think so, except that...Strike Zero wrote:I'm not usually one for predictions, but ifthen this show will have exceeded just about anything and everything Gundam-related that ever came before it, and that will ever come out after.Spoiler
Mashita uses that giant plavsky crystal to make the giant 1:1 Zaku move and do his bidding, followed by the crowd below bringing an army made up of their own Gunpla to life in order to stop it,
Spoiler
Reiji will animate the 1:1 Gundam to counter it, but it alone can't stop the Zaku due to lack of massive Arista like Mashita's. Then everyone help him out.

I think the body is modified Kyrios's body. The head could be modified AGE-2 head. I am not sure about the wings though...You could see elements of AGE-2 Normal's wings there.AmuroNT1 wrote:Honestly, I thought the new Fenice's elements looked like they came from the Kyrios family more than AGE-2.

Re: The Official Gundam Build Fighters Anime Thread Mk IV
Rinascita's eyes reminds me a bit of Legilis', but the face probably belongs to the AGE-2.
I tried to find similarities from Reborns' face to Rinascita's.
EDIT: Rinascita means "Reborn", right? Maybe they do have some similarities. Does the Rinascita have funnels/fangs?

Re: The Official Gundam Build Fighters Anime Thread Mk IV
Im hoping there is more either anime or manga that takes place in this world/setting.
The new Moah suit, the new Fenice, and Sei showing how much he has grown as a pilot shows how much still can be done with this world/setting/series.
New Weapon set? Hiding this just in case.

The bird mode is very Early Type/ Ver Ka. So I'm assuming the dandy kitbashed the Okawara and Katoki versions.
I half expected he'd straight just go for a Wing Zero.

Re: The Official Gundam Build Fighters Anime Thread Mk IV
Caught the episode yesterday after work but I didn't really enjoy it as much as the previous. Yeah sure there were cameos left and right but I just wasn't feeling it. Anyway now that the Embody system is back in play I expect to see Sei/Reiji breaking its hold by reminding Tatsuya how much he loves Gunpla and why he battles and the like.

Staff seem to like the Kyrios - Aila is shown to be making Miss Sazabi from a combination of Sazabi (natch) and Kyrios.Mythgarr wrote:I think the body is modified Kyrios's body.

Re: The Official Gundam Build Fighters Anime Thread Mk IV
I dunno, since it keeps being brought up, Miss Sazabi really doesn't look as bad as people keep making it out to be. At least in these images the proportions don't look anywhere near as bad as people are exaggerating them to be. When looking at a posed one, it actually looks awesome, at least in my opinion.
Anyway from what I can see of the model it really doesn't look like it borrows parts of the HG00 Kyrios or has any Kyrios-esque parts. I mean, for all we know, that Kyrios box could have been for a person that sat to the left of her. Also surprised no one noticed that the box to the left of hers changes also, as in an earlier scene... there's a Rick Dias box..., and there's only one box there ((That appears to be the bottom, open half rather than the top cover lid which has the art))

Re: The Official Gundam Build Fighters Anime Thread Mk IV
Since the designs of both Miss Sazabi and Rinascita have been discusssed ad nauseam, if the plamo designers can make the Crossbone Kai look half as good as it does on the show, then I'm buyin'. Also, I think Rain makes a way better announcer than Kirara (the cheater). Speaking of whom, being the official mascot of the tournament, isn't she ineligible to compete for that lifetime supply of Gunpla?

Re: The Official Gundam Build Fighters Anime Thread Mk IV
Rain was an excellent announcer for the mini-tournament. I don't know if Kirara actually competed to win, or if she just wanted to let the air out of Fenice's ego after he thrashed the other competitors to the point where Reiji called it "bullying". The other guys he defeated or de-girled seemed to enjoy the match!
