By Apollo Go To PostHow were the Macross Frontier movies?Actually.... I mean. If you like Macross, you'll still like it. I disliked Frontier overall but I still dug it.
I liked the series. Come at me
The movies is just a prettier Frontier. It still shares the same issues despite some changes. Sheryl still ends up with worst male lead Alto.
I saw it 2 days ago but
Episode 2
More happen in these 2 episodes than in the first 4-5 episodes of Macross Frontier. Hayate and cast are already more dynamic than Alto. Minori Suzuki accent speech and exaggeration is kind of growing on me. Would like to see more Kaname, Mikumo, and Mirage. Chuck too Chuck is great.
The Macross and Valkyrie designs are so ace. I'm really really looking forward to the Valkyrie vs Valkyrie dogfights with the Delta Squad vs the Air Knights. Thinking about the Lady M aspect too.
So out of the first two episodes we'll see some pretty great robot and Valkyrie action, they will touch up on Windemere relationships as the Air Knight "antagonists" of the show are Windemere like Freya. I hope that the Char clone, isn't a Char clone in Delta. If he ends up being McGilis/Char/Treize lolicon backstabbing type...
With a large cast I hope they are able to flesh some of them out enough, but I think they'll do a better job than Frontier at least. It would be cool to see whether or not Delta can match the popularity of Frontier in 2007 in sales. Delta already has live concerts planned out.
Frontier shouldn't be the bar to break, but it has to be considering the past couple years. Hopefully the show can deliver more with that but at least it is entertaining right now. Once the broadcast picks up more maybe more comparisons to past shows can be made.
Thomas Romain did a pretty nice job on the background and environments.

By Retro Go To PostGotta go back to the 80s when everyone in Japan was aping Blade Runner.
Cyber City Oedo 808
Bubblegum Crisis
Megazone 23
Dirty Pair
Battle Angel Alita
Outlaw Star
AD Police
Armitage III
The two most modern ones that I think are good are probably Serial Experiments Lain and Kaiba, but both of those are more shows that explore transhumanism themes than ones that have that cyberpunk aesthetic.
I've seen most of those but where can I get Megazone 23?
jesus fuck gundam thunderbolt might be the best shit i've seen in years
im in pain watching this. its too good for me
im in pain watching this. its too good for me
its been out for like a month. 18 minutes of damn good shit.

Streaming wise I think it's up on kissanime. But I don't know if it's censored or not.
If you use bittorrent it's up on all the usual safe spots. Bakabt, nyaa, tokyotosho etc
DBZ was flames. Sad day for Vegeta stans though. Hit is better than every Saiyan in DB history, he still has ptsd from getting his ass beat by Goku, and this ep cemented Goku as the best now and forever. lmao.
Hit swagged out more than Future Trunks. :wow:
Thunderbolt ep 3 was just...man.
Kabeneri was dope. Hope they can keep it up.

By Kuma Go To Postis the new gundam good?Its amazing
By DY_nasty Go To PostIts amazingis there any 3d animation? if so, it ain't
Watched the HxH dub just to see how it was. Its aight I guess. Cant really place any of the main voices as frequent retreads yetso thats a good thing. Maybe they are though and im just not catching it
However it Gon eagerly diving off the boat makes it really obvious in retrospect that the kid was fucked in the head all along.

Finished Phantom World. Eh.
And I didn't realize galko-chan was a series of 7 minute shorts full of nothing but dirty jokes.

Attack on Zombies on Trains
This show is pretty metal. It is JUST AOT but with a protag that seems to be able to get shit done instead of just talking shit. Great animation that totally will shit itself later. Pretty much what I expected...and thats cool
Kiznaiver
Don't know why I am feeling this as much as I am but ...I am. The cast is interesting and I want to know where it is going with this. Like the style of the show period.
My Hero Acadamia
I think this is a perfect shonen adaption. It is taking its time instead of rushing through it but also not Toei-ing it up either. Just the right pacing IMO. I don't get why people are in such a rush to trash it on some places tho..( well I do; gotta be negative about everything in order to come off as an unbiased person or some shit). Its not anything new or special but it does what it set out to do perfectly. Not everything has to change the game and revolutionize. Thats how and why we got so many gimmick shows in which their gimmick can't carry the show at all.

JoJo's continues to be great and water is in fact wet.
Gawd damn @ Gundam Thunderbolt. Fuck...what an awesome series. That beam saber death might have been the realest shit outside of Mika clapping dudes outside of their mobile suits. I wasn't ready at all for that type of shit to happen. I was just as horrified as the ones on screen.
These DBZ Super writers must have meetings on how hard they can troll Vegeta stans. He's not even number 2 anymore. lmao. He's got to do something else with his time aside from screaming kakarot, while he's at the gym. Also, Hit is the GOAT of this series now. They better not throw him to the bushes.

I need to catch up on DBS. That opening set of eps though... ugh.
And I've never eaten so much crow - Macross Delta might end up the best Macross series in a loong time.

JoJo's...wow. Like...wow. Jotaro should have been doing reps of "Toki yo tomare", while studying dolphins.
Dy...this Hero Academy ish is lit. Omg at this kid's resolve.
Attack on Trains keeps diving into the fukkery. This girl only moves at 100. She's only at zero when she's asleep. lol. Next week's episode should be dope.

Macross Delta, Sakamoto and Kabaneri are my season I think
Finished 12 episodes of Bakemonogatari. Don't know how I feel about it overall but it's........intriguing??
Also downloading Majestic Prince at the recommendation of a few friends. Supposedly this is the show we all should have watched instead of Valvrave.

Damn Goku and company really aint shit outchea. OmniKing can snap his fingers and destroy all the universes.
Cant wait to see whats on deck next in Super. Really hope its a threatening villain. The show needs some intensity.

Did Hit actually kill Frost? They had a dead body just chilling on the bleachers, the entire time. Hit is a savage. :wow:
Whiz and Vados must have been the OmniKing's guards or something. Champa and Beerus were damn near pissing themselves when he showed up and those two were like, "these fuck bois don't do shit."
Hero no academia was great. Rooting for the kid and the zero gravity girl.

By DY_nasty Go To Postimpossible as long as goku is alive
true. i'll settle for some contrived shit to keep goku/vegeta off earth for an entire saga.
that'd give gohan a legit reason to man up. piccolo might be useful.
the kids could get some shine.
i really just want future trunks to come back more than anything lol.
By DY_nasty Go To Postyoung dekuThanks for the reminder! I'm beginning to wonder where they are going to end this season at.
thats the breh
Probably after the class practice-rescue mission that gets invaded by villains.
it'll be the first manga i pick up in a long long while
also, ushio ....man this 2nd season is really depressing. hakumen is breaking this dude

Does anyone else build giant robot models from anime or anything? I really enjoy the Zoid kits from Kotobukiya and the Zeon suits of Gundam from Bandai.
Here is a WIP of my Zoids HMM Gojulas showing off the various points of articulation. I only have the head and torso done; working on the tail right now.
Head in relaxed position:
Head bent back as far as it can go, jaw opened as wide as possible, pilot window opened:
Inside look of the mouth:
Front view of the cockpit. There is a working safety bar in the raised position in front of the chair:
Side view in relaxed position:
Spine raised up as far as it can go. Plates tilted as far as they can go:
Front view in relaxed position:
Torso twisted, guns tilted out as far as possible, power core removed:
Side view with torso leaning as far back as possible. The guns can rotate 360 degrees:
Front view with shoulder and hip sockets pushed out as far as they can go. Torso is also leaning as far as it can go in one direction:
I spend a 2-4 hours a week building this thing and those pictures represent about three months of progress.

Ushio's 2nd season is Casshern Sins level of depressing right now. They finally told Tora's origin story and it might've been the gut punch of the year.

I do, I'm a very big gundam fan. Gundam is huge in Asia growing up.
