I think gasmask-chan (kun? Is that a woman or..? Probably a woman?) is experimenting or something weird. There's definitely no reason to have a scientist character if they're not up to no good.
I just realized that the movie is only an hour and a half. I'm not sure how they retell the story in that short of time, but... okay, I'll bite. This better not suck.
Exactly! I'll be watching it tomorrow, but from what I hear they basically distilled all the weirder parts of the show and stuffed it into a tiny format.
I think the Gasmask guy is a guy, isn't he?
It's a thematic retelling, not a literal one.

What if life fibres are sapping power instead of adding it.
It seems likely that, unbeknownst to her, the life fibres are going to end up making her suit dangerously strong/difficult to control or at least, that's how these stories of enchanted armour tend to end up.

Guys...guys...I'm like forty minutes in...
Where did Akio's luscious voice go? WHERE IT GO?!
Edit: Aah, so it takes place (Utena spoilers)
My favorite character was barely in it, so...eh. Pretty good. Not really necessary except the last ten to fifteen minutes. Getting the wrong voice actor was an unforgivable sin though.

in the world Utena is trapped in at the end of the TV series, I guess (the Academy). And they escape at the end.

I guess.
Satsuki doesn't want to rely on anyone, and that extends to her relationship with Junketsu. But it doesn't seem like you can treat Kamui the same way you'd treat any other outfit, that you'd put on or take off at your leisure.
Well, her parents didn't give it to her. She put Junketsu on in defiance of their instructions.

OK...this show is pretty dope.
They were going to give it to her on the day of her wedding, and they let her keep wearing it after finding out. If it was incredibly dangerous they could have forced her to never put it back on.
This episode suggests that she hasn't put it back on, and it's an open question whether her parents are supportive of what she did.
She's wearing Junketsu when she gets out of the helicopter after talking to her parents. She also tells the butler that she explained her reasons for putting Junketsu on.
The TV and Movie are in different universes. Drawing any connection beyond the themes, imagery, and symbolism is a mistake.
I guess I wasn't paying attention during those seconds before Uzu shows up.
That was my theory and parts of the internet seem to agree. I'll file it away it away in the "Yeah, that's what I'm going to believe" part of my brain with the other fan theories. The TV series was way better in any case. This was not a "Do You Remember Love" type scenario where the TV show is hot garbage and the movie is excellent.
She's going to keep wearing it until circumstances force her to get naked. Possibly on a beach.
I was thinking she would start to lose control, then overcome it at the last second. But now that I think about it, she and Senketsu are friends so I don't know why he'd try to take over her body.

Guys get full-body armour when they transform, girls become scantily dressed. Ha, of course they'd do that. And I think I spotted a Rurouni Kenshin reference when he was beating up Ryuko in their first match.
The pace of this ep was insane. A (possibly) major villain gets introduced, defeated, powers up, defeats the hero again and gets an image change in just twenty minutes!

But watching good guys win 100% of the time is incredibly boring. She needed to get beat down so she doesn't get over confident. She also won the first fight with one blow which was kinda weird considering he is elite 4.

Imaishi is to shonen tropes, what Tarantino is to suspense thrillers. They got the algorithm down.
Oh I know. I just think it's interesting that this is pretty much the first shonen show I've watched where I've really had any sort of concern for the protagonist.

I'd love to see Ira Gamagoori in a simple but God awesome outfit.
Time for EndBoss Mako-chan to shine.

Yeah, but you gotta know when to give the good guys a victory. One of the problems with Young Justice (depending on who you ask) was that the bad guys were always, always beating the good guys. Even when the good guys think they nabbed a victory it turns out that the bad guys let them win.

No, it wasn't like this. Not at all. The team really pissed in the lights plans, but the great thing about the light was, that they're plans were flexible enough to bend a small win, even when they lost. Although the Young Justice couldn't stop the lights plan that started the second season, they slowed them down and - far more important - gained information. The problem the team faced in the first season was that they didn't get the big picture so they were satisfied by the archieved objectives, while the light had far more. So in the second season it was actually the team that outgambitet the light and its partners.
Also: fuck CN for kicking this great show.
I don't know, it still felt like the Light won at the end. And because we'll never get a third season it will stay that way =(

it's a glass half-full glass-half empty thing.
the Light wanted 2 things,
total control of humanity's potential AND a deterrent against any alien influence.
they got 1 of the 2.
With savage controlling the war world planet earth was protected against invasions, saving human lives and the home planet of the bad guys AND the good guys.

Well, I don't want tho spam the KLK-Thread with YJ-talk, but I wanna say this:
It was Vandal Savage who won a bit. The Reach was enemy of everyone of the world and it was sure enough defeated, that would be technicaly a win for the Light. Other than that: the Light was more or less disbanded, its members broken, maybe dead or in jail.
It is only Vandal Savage and Darkside who aquired the War World and made sure that the earth is a respected force of the universe. Also earth lies once again in the hands of the heroes and governments, instead of the Light and/or Darkside.

I don't know, it felt like they were setting up president Luthor at the end. Maybe I'm rememberign wrong
Anyways yeah, we're going way off topic. I wonder how Sexy Sensei will fight later on.

It was all entirely done in zbrush. You can make a basic shape, mask off a section and extract that as a starting point. That's how I did the bow. As for the skirt, I did one pleat and then instanced it across a cylinder.
Anyhoo will paint it soon
this show has amazing designs man!SpacePirate Ridley

So because this show is awesome I've been working on some fanart..
Hopefully will be finished with it soon..
Wow thats fantastic, I would love to learn ZBrush to try to make things like this.

Just got caught up with all the episodes. I dig it so far; the first few episodes followed the same formula Gurren Lagann used.
Introduce the characters and the basic plot in the first few EPs. Episode 5 and 6 is where stuff got serious, I see Nudist Beach and Satsuki's family playing a bigger role in the story later on.
Can't wait

His collar only opens when he's talking
How is he supposed to give orders to his Gokumon?
Rewatched the episode today, the scene with Satsuki's mother being 'revealed' and leading into the first battle with Sanageyama gives me chills. The soundtrack perfectly compliments it. The battle music was pretty amazing well, really growing on me.
Does anyone think Sanageyama might be stronger than Satsuki at this point in time? He seemed quite unimpressed with her teacup attack.

Only because it was the same attack she used on him before.
I thought the second time when she thought he had snuck up behind her but he was standing in front of her hinted he might have an advantage on her now, at least in her regular form.
Or it could've been Satsuki trying to throw him off.
