Is it late enough to have a GA thread?
Played through the first game again. Still had fun with it
Let's see how far this thread can go without me bumping with CG's
Holy shit this is more dead than usual
>>111850488
I chose not to watch the anime many years ago and I forgot to check out the games when they were translating recently.
All I know about Galaxy Angel stems from those newgrounds.com flashes and Sago-Jou's futa doujinshi.
What am I missing out on?
>>111850632
I consider anime one of the funniest series to be ever made. Apparently it was supposed to be based off the games that actually had plot but miscommunication just had the anime studio making it a comedy and it pulled it off greatly. The Rune anime with the second generation of girls did pretty bad.
The games are a light-hearted but plot focused series of games that span 6 games. They are all direct sequels so massive amounts of character moments.
Delicious
>>111850632
Shit, I got into Galaxy Angel from the Sago-Jou doujins.
>>111850632
A lot. I haven't played that newgrounds game in years, but if I remember right the angels aren't like their anime/game counterparts. Normad is still a wisecracking stuffed animal though. Pic semi-related.
>>111850831
[citation needed]
The anime came first, so I doubt they'd release a game adaptation before the actual games were even released. Should this actually be true though, that would be hilarious.
GA is indeed one of the funniest shows out there.
>>111852190
They had the game in development and the anime to follow it I believe. Then a little delay in the games made the anime studio with no source material to actually work with other than general character traits
Why is Rune so charmless?
What's with the washed-out colors?
I thought they'd fix the animation errors for the DVDs but it still looks fairly crap.

>>111852245
Should that be true, makes me wonder what a Galaxy Angel anime would have been like had they gone with adapting the games.
Delicious cel animation blowing up loli-Death Star. It would be problematic if they had to choose a route, unless they just go with Milfie, which is what I'd expect them to do.
>>111852910
You know, I've been thinking about actually watching Rune just to see it, but I know all that lies ahead is disappointment compared to the games.
Did the games ever get translated?
I'm kinda sad Broccoli publications in the US ceased to be a thing right in the middle of Rune...
Fuck the games.

I think the Rune production crew had the same dilemma of choosing either adapting the games or just following the predecessor's formula.
Of course, we all know how that turned out.

The Grand Cross episode is easily one of my favorites. There's too many to choose from though to have an absolute favorite, but the episode with the literal cliffhanger is one of my top episodes as well. Pic related was very clever also.

Holy shit I knew that sounded familiar. They actually released the song on one of the music CDs. I was listening to that yesterday going through that 10gb music collection.
Has anyone ever played the GBA Galaxy Angel game? I was considering getting a copy. Apparently it's like Mario Party or something, so I wouldn't really have to worry about lack of moonspeak like a dialogue heavy game.

Makoto Uezu did the screenplay/writing for Sunred, as well as Phantasm and Jinrui, which were undoubtedly good. However not even Uezu can save anyone when Seiji Kishi wants a game adaption his way, barring phantasm for some reason.

Yeah, it really sucks, but at least there's only 5 we can't get at. More likely than not, a couple of the tracks on those CDs were included with other CDs anyway, like with the Galaxy Angel Best Albums.
The real pain in the ass is how messy the whole collection is organized. Not that I don't appreciate whoever uploaded the whole thing in the first place. Whoever they are, they've done god's work.
>>111860172
I can't begin to start organizing all these files.
Forte was one of my first waifus.
>>111861745
Ranpha had me enamored
I came here to express my disgust.
I went through the first VN expecting things. I got absolutely fucking nothing. It's like taking cute girls doing cute things, watering it down with gallons and gallons of... water, then disposing of the mix and just putting water in a jar and presenting it to the reader.
Of course those were simpler times, but god damnit. I'd be okay if it were from the early-mid 90s, but it isn't.
That fledgling voice cast, though.
Looking at the thread's pics, it looks like the show may be passable at least. Maybe I'll check it out someday.
>>111862886
It helps to know the characters to appreciate the game
>>111863027
I don't think so, Anon. Things don't happen just for knowing the characters.
I mean, sure, it may help, but in my eyes it could at most turn a once-cent game into a two-cent one. Jesus Christ, so generic. It doesn't even deserve a name. Just call it "moe in space."
Not saying it's actively off-putting, but the lack of appeal left me disconcerted.
>>111864068
What I'm saying is that the game is definitely not for someone new to the series. Familiarizing yourself with the characters in the anime outright tell you that the series is rarely serious and is usually about screwing around.
It's definitely generic but it's really for the fans.
>>111864150
How is the first entry in a series for the fans? Fans before it came out?
>>111864435
Anime came before the game.
>>111855738
Mint's VA also referenced that episode in a Milky Holmes skit.

>>111864489

>>111864671
That song is wonderful.
>>111865020
GA II had the first cast show up a lot and they handled each chapter like an episode from an anime where they played the game's opening and select ending song everytime a chapter started and ended.
GA II brought around 2 more songs for everybody.

>Sawashiro in Milky Holmes
I never knew she was in this show. The fact that I haven't watched Milky Holmes yet has been bugging me with all the good things I hear about it. Sawashiro is just icing on the cake now.
>>111864068
No, he's really right. The plot is fairly standard, but the characters and their interactions make the game amazing because it's so comfy. Especially if you see the differences in their personalities between the show and games. Also, Moonlit Lovers and Eternal Lovers in my opinion are better in terms of individual routes for the most part. Especially Mint's in Eternal.
If you're not into comfy shows, you probably won't really care for that though.
>>111864671
I really enjoyed her singing in Telepath TV and Ohisamairo no Merry-Go-Round as well.
>>111854399

I love this anime so much I even got a tattoo of it. Feel's maximum weaboo, man.
>>111865825

>>111865275
Milky Holmes is like Digi Charat on steroids. In other words, there aren't any serious moments/episodes like in GA and the episodic plots are pretty crazy, but as a comedy it's far superior.
I still wonder how J.C Staff managed to pull off a show like this while doing three other series (Bakuman, Otome Youkai Zakuro and Index II) during the same season.
>>111865825
The bird looking logo of the series. At least it's very subtle and no one would know it's from GA.
Is it bad that I like the more serious episodes of Galaxy Angel than the comically hilarious ones?
>>111865967
You know they did something right when the serious episodes happen to be the really good episodes.
>>111865741All that Lester rustling in Chitose's route was great. I didn't expect that.It's a little sad that she didn't get as much time for lovey dovey, but she really has some great moments.
>>111865848
I noticed. A friend showed me an episode or two, and I think one of them had the blonde dude with the nipples in it. I lost my shit when they parodied Golgo13.
>>111865967
Some of those were actually really good. I think the only one I didn't like was the one near the end of AA. But the Forte centric ones all throughout are great.
>>111866028
>>111866105
I liked the one where Volcott became the proxy for Tact and was Milfeulle's boyfriend and they grew up together.
>>111864671
>>111864597
Sawashiro Miyuki's lifetime role achievment is Mint.
She did a few good roles after that, and is fairly popular with her now crispy voice, but she can't ever get back to that pitch again.
>>111866225
Wait what
>>111866313
Season 2, Episode 7. Can't find the video anymore. Was sweet as fuck.
>>111866308
If anything, the final game came out in 2009. While she doesn't have that many speaking roles, she was there and did the voice just fine.
Still half a decade ago though
>>111865275
>The fact that I haven't watched Milky Holmes yet has been bugging me with all the good things I hear about it.
It's the closest thing GA has to a spiritual successor with the fact that it's:
>about cute girls doing dumb things
>a comedy solely because their games were delayed until after the anime's premiere
>has Miyuki Sawashiro (Mint), Yukari Tamura (Ranpha) and Ryoko Shintani (Milfeulle)
>>111866408
I'm speaking about her anime play.
That was mindblowing, even though I loved her in the game and she showed some of those royal yet ridiculously high pitched voice too, but what she did in the anime starting the second season is my favorite ever voice acting.
>>111866308
Doesn't she use her Mint voice for Perrine
>>111866479
Only when she screams, but clearly deeper for her speaking voice.
>>111866308
>but she can't ever get back to that pitch again.
Are you talking specifically for Mint, or just into the higher pitch of voices? Because her Broccoli (Puchiko) in Neptunia sounds just like Her Puchiko from Di Gi Charat to me, and her voice in that PyururikuPyururiku Milky Holmes clip sounded the same too. Or maybe I just need to listen a little closer?
I think that she just has a very large range of voices.
>>111866105
>>111866225
The one where Volcott had a romance with a woman he met while grocery shoppingbut gave it all up to take care of the Angel Troupewas my favourite
>>111866537
You sir clearly need to listen closer.
The pitch isn't that high and her voice is much crispier lately.
>>111866537
>and her voice in that PyururikuPyururiku Milky Holmes clip sounded the same too
Sounded the same her Mint voice I mean.
>>111866557
Leave it to the VA of Volcott to pull this off so well
Posting best girl.
I'm glad Miyuki Sawashiro is still doing great in the industry alongside Ryouko Shintani and Yukari Tamura but I wish we got to see the other half of the Angel Wing
Cause Forte's voice was balling
>>111866711
She was adorable
>>111866711
Chitose has the best punny name (Cheetos) before Homura became Homerun.
>>111866711
I want tobe friendswith Chitose
>>111866711
Never before has such a huge disparity exist between anime personality and game personality
>>111866711
I love the way her voice squeaks and cracks when she gets emotional or flustered.
>>111866883
I never watched the anime. How was the difference?
>>111854284
What the fuck did I just watch?
>>111866993
Welcome to Galaxy Angel: the Anime.
You should've started from the very first episode, though. The craziness just escalates from there.
>>111866890
She struggled so hard trying to call Tact
>>111866915
Nowhere as sweet as the game version
So, What of the games should I play?
I'm playing the first one.
>>111867107
The first, 2nd and third one, obviously.
>>111867107
Elaborate
Also, I just rediscovered some art from the artbooks
>>111867033
That's too bad, because she was wonderful in the games. waifu/10.
>>111867155
Basically, I'm playing the First game and I was pleasantly surprised at the first real challenge the game has to offer.
>Surrounded by enemies, Objective is to get at designated point.
>Flagship almost wrecked.
>Forte and Happy Trigger Strike Bursting alot of shit.
Now there another Galaxy Angel update that adds a new Girl and a Sequel and I'm wondering whether to download it or not.
>>111867291
Well of course you should, they're direct sequels.
I just played that mission and I agree, that's one of the few challenging missions in the first game. Eternal Lovers (3rd game) adds a few more in there
Have some Chitose
>>111867316
>>111867291
>Galaxy Angel
>Challenging
>>111867396
2-4 missions in the entire series are at least tougher than most
>>111867291
Is it just me or the Angels are very charming in their own ways?
I chose Forte but the other Girls are equally lovable.
This scene destroyed me.
Favorite game scenes?
>>111867480
One of the charms of the series. All the girls are pretty great exceptForte and Mint.
>>111867503
Aw shit, the curry eating contest.
Almo and Coco pinning down Lester desperately needed a scene.
>>111867503
Camus revealing that at one time, Milfeulle wanted to be a spaceship because she was missing all of her field trips.
I would watch the shit out of this
>>111867291
>Flagship almost wrecked.
You send Ranpha to intercept the furthest enemies and Forte to back her up, Milfuelle and Mint to the nearer party. Vanilla goes wherever's she's needed.
The Emblem Frames should be closer to destruction than your flagship should ever be.
>>111867584
You know what's strange?
In the manga adaptation, the Hell Hounds wrecked the Angel Wing every fight.
Their introductory dialogue is different too
In the game it goes
>Some shit about Camus' name being beautiful like a wind blowing space
>Milfie goes, I don't think there's wind in space
Manga goes
>We're the Hell Hounds and while today we're here to say hello, tomorrow we'll escort you to hell
I know what I'm doing this weekend,
I have to hunt down the scans for the 3 artbooks
>>111867644
I underestimated how fast those new destroyers, ones those were gone. It was simply the focus of destroying any nearby enemies.
Do the sequels have more challenges? I love it.
>>111867784
God-speed.
>>111867829
They do since romantic problems weaken Emblem Frames
>>111867829
>Hellhounds
Oh, I find the easiest way to deal with them is to focus them down one at a time
>>111867850
One last thing.
Can you a bonus when you have an cleared save file from the past games? and also your chosen angel?
>>111867897
In the mission he's referring to, I think it's the highspeed frigates Sherry has around
>>111867910
There's no bonuses for cleared game data, that stuff is in the second series.
You get to choose which Angel you ended up with at the beginning of the sequels
>>111867107
>>111867291
>>111867829
Allow pic related to show you the hardest mission in the entire series did to the flagship.
It's in the 3rd game
>>111867943
I see. Thanks for answering my questions.
>>111867995
No problem at all, anything for anons playing through the games and enjoying the series.
Strike Burst gets mad overpowered in the sequels
What are those on her head? Fin Funnels? Rocket Hair Clips?
>>111868143
Pepper shakers
>>111868143
Grenades
So Official Artbook 1 was found pretty easily enough. Then the regular artbook on the first game was pretty easy to find.
Angel II and Angel III be might as well be bought online. Individual scans exist, but I'm an all or nothing sort of person when it comes to this
I rememberbuyingthe manga of all three GA series. Then I get to Rune and loltranslationnever happens. Now I'll never get to finish the manga ;_;
>>111868300
It helps that the games are fully voiced so I could understand the majority of what was going on
I'll say this in advance
Thanks for the thread anons. It's fucking 5:30 in the morning and I should be asleep but I'd do anything to freely talk about the series with you all.
