I will always appreciate that Super Robot Wars Z called out Kira for his bullshit so hard, that he gets punched in the face by goddamn Shinji from Evangelion, and it felt so right.

Plus they rewrote the plot and made it actually good, SRW Z's the real version of SEED for me.

I never said she ain't crazy, just that he did good smashing that shit. Most protags couldn't smash it if you put it in front of them and explained how the whole thing worked, dude got in there and did the job.

Most Gundam protags don't smash cray cray though...unless you're Heero...he smashed Relena right?

 

[Kamen x Hunter]

Eventually probably. Though Heero is so bland, maybe not.

 

[JadedWriter]

Kira

Lacus is kind of crazy too in a way, I guess it's his fetish. I guess he would've smashed Mere too if given the chance. Fucking Athrun ran away from Mere.

 

[Man God]

Domon.

 

[JadedWriter]

Domon.

Raine ain't crazy though, neither was Allenbee. I honestly think Paptimus smashed Reccoa and Quattro wasn't touching that woman like that...Paptimus isn't a protag though. Now that I think about it, Paptimus probably smashed most of the women on the Jupitrus. Named his suit The O for a fucking reason.

 

[cntr]

Do you think the guys who made Wing read Snow Crash

 

[BassForever]

Ugh, the only good thing Kira ever did was smash that red haired chick.

Can we get pics of said red head?

 

[cntr]

doesn't Lacus have pink hair, or am I forgetting who you're talking about?

 

[ShinRPGamer]

doesn't Lacus have pink hair, or am I forgetting who you're talking about?

He's talking about Flay. Lacus and Kira never had sex on screen.

Can we get pics of said red head?

Here you go. She's the worst character in SEED IMO.

 

[cntr]

oh right, I totally forgot about her

 

[JadedWriter]

Flay

Lacus

Both crazy, neither on my waifu list. Oddly enough I gotta a thing for Natarle Badgerule

He's talking about Flay. Lacus and Kira never had sex.

FTFY

Speaking of, what did you guys think about the first two episodes of Fuuka

 

[JadedWriter]

Speaking of, what did you guys think about the first two episodes of Fuuka

I actually like Fuuka Akitsuki cause she's not as stupid as Yuu is. Tama-chan seems like a stalker.

This singer chick is kind of stalkerish. Is this going to turn into Macross Frontier with Akitsuki being the Ranka to Tama-chan's Sheryll? Oh god does Yuu turn into a less cool version of Alto?

 

[B-Dubs]

Here you go. She's the worst character in SEED IMO.

A horrible character, but he still smashed.

Speaking of, what did you guys think about the first two episodes of Fuuka

It's a slow burn.

 

[JadedWriter]

A horrible character, but he still smashed.

Kind of confirms that Kira has bad taste in women.

 

[Hellwarden]

Seems like the debut of Dragon Ball Super was somewhat successful guys.

Also, Christ, Flay was the worst.

You ain't wrong, but how many other anime protagonists actually get laid before the series ends?

 

[JadedWriter]

Rahxephon.

 

[cntr]

It's a slow burn.

You say that, but the first episode

Spoiler

already has Seo's brand of melodrama, with Fuuka's random mood swings and smashing the guy's phone.

 

[Hellwarden]

Gundam Wing had a beautiful romance tho.

 

[cntr]

You ain't wrong, but how many other anime protagonists actually get laid before the series ends?

Well, Simon and Nia boned off-screen during the timeskip

 

[B-Dubs]

Rahxephon.

That's my point, you can count that shit on one hand.

I'm telling you, the best is yet to come.

 

[JadedWriter]

Gundam Wing had a beautiful romance tho.

Wing is DTL's wet dream...still can't believe they pair up Quatre with Dorothy. No way in fuck that's an actual relationship.

 

[Raxus]

IIRC Gundam Wing had some really great battles it made me completely overlook how bad the two main leads were.

I remember the antagonist and his crew being pretty boss as well. It's been ages since I have seen the series.

In new anime season reactions, It is jarring watching Blue Exorcist again picking up where they split off from the manga and just erasing the final arc from the OG anime from existence. Little Witch Academia is pretty great, not too surprising.

 

[JadedWriter]

That's my point, you can count that shit on one hand.

Considering how strong that relationship is boots were probably knocked before the show even started. Oh yes there's also Blue Gender, I need to rewatch that at some point.

 

[Megalosaro]

Every fucking character in Seed is terrible except Athrun and maybe Durandal. Shuichi ikeda elevated that character with his natural swag.

I pretty much consider Durandal "Boy Scout Leader Paptimus." He had a way with confused little boys that echoed how Pimptimus would just sway those confused Gundam women, except Fa though. Kamille was her man.

I wish Toonami got a proper mecha show, like a Getter Robo or Mazinger Z

Or Macross Frontier but fuck off with trying to dub over based Sheryll "Yas Queen" Nome. And yeah I know of Macross Delta, not as good as Frontier and I don't need to see Mirage take the L again but in English this time.

 

[ShinRPGamer]

Why do I get the feeling I'm the only one here who likes Gundam SEED?

 

[JadedWriter]

Why do I get the feeling I'm the only one here who likes Gundam SEED?

Seed is fine. Now Seed Destiny is a completely different story. Seed's a decent enough retelling of 0079, while Destiny is a train wreck reimagining of Zeta.

 

[B-Dubs]

Seed is fine. Now Seed Destiny is a completely different story.

Oh lord, Seed Destiny.

 

[Hellwarden]

Wow, Scalebound might be cancelled.

I feel like sudden cancellations are becoming rarer, or is that just me?

Why do I get the feeling I'm the only one here who likes Gundam SEED?

I could be wrong, but I think Man God has somewhat of an affinity for it.

 

[Megalosaro]

What did you like about it?

You know what would be cool. VOTOMS on toonami

[Regiruler]

Is there a need to recede to such vulgar topics?

It's relevant

Big West's legal dispute with Harmony Gold, and their complete unwillingness to actually take it to court in the States to resolve it in spite of Japanese courts already having ruled in their favor, guarantees that we won't be seeing official releases or broadcasts of any Macross after Plus outside of Japan, dubbed or otherwise.

 

[Regiruler]

It's relevant

It's not a matter of relevance.

 

[Jarate]

My library has that most recently made Gundam Manga that I think covers the UC, unfortunately some asshole took out only the first volume and has held onto it for dear life

I have that shit on hold tho, so hopefully I'll get caught up there

 

[cntr]

VOTOMS on Toonami would be glorious

Oh...I know all about this bullshit already. That most was one part wishful thinking and another part not saying "Put escaflowne on Toonami."

 

[Man God]

I love SEED and DESTINY might be my favorite trainwreck show.

 

[zulux21]

Wow, Scalebound might be cancelled.

idk it feels like it's becoming a yearly occurrence at microsoft.

I know I recall hearing a Fable of this game that was going to be one of the Legends being cancelled last year.

I mean sudden large scale game cancellations are rare in general, but this is starting to look like microsoft might have a serious issue somewhere as you can't just keep eating large scale game cancellations that got most of the way through development.

edit: microsoft just confirmed.

 

[Raxus]

Wow, Scalebound might be cancelled.

No might anymore

Get well soon Kamiya. Xbox seems to be on its way out ala Sega. Damn shame. People can count on one hand exclusives for the console.

 

[Crimson_Echidna]

You ain't wrong, but how many other anime protagonists actually get laid before the series ends?

Much as I shit on Sword Art Online, props to Kirito for not only committing to someone, but actually going all the way with it.

 

[Man God]

Diplomacy has failed.

 

[Zonic]

You ain't wrong, but how many other anime protagonists actually get laid before the series ends?

Shinichi in Parasyte.

Jonathan,

Spoiler

Joseph & later on, Jotaro

in Jojo's Bizarre Adventure, if you want to argue the series hasn't "ended" & the whole "series focuses on a relative of the Joestar family" deal

..........freakin' Goku in Dragon Ball. TWICE.

...................Makoto in School Days???

At least you acknowledge that it's a trainwreck unlike DTL.
