Weekend GA Thread
Newfriends cordially invitedLet's see if this is too early or not
what is galaxy angel.
should i watch /a/?!
>>115917364
I'm not sure how to respond to this
>>115917364
Watch the anime, and then play the games.
After god knows how many hours of playtime, I'm finally done with ffxiii, and can now take on Eigou Kaiki at full force.
>>115917528
Alternatively, I could get some more songs/movies before I get going. Any requests in particular?
>>115917528
Congrats to you since I never got around finishing XIII.

>>115917424
i am pretty new to the Japanese animation scenery
>>115917591
Rico's Arranged theme and Tequila's Regular theme would be nice
>>115917629
I'm questioning on recommending GA as your introductory series
If anything, I'm glad that Chapter 1 of EK is chock full of moments so I'll hopefully be able to see a reaction of that
One Arranged Rico theme to go!
https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/6958066/GA/%E3%82%A2%E3%83%97%E3%83%AA%E3%82%B3%E3%83%83%E3%83%88%E3%81%AE%E3%83%86%E3%83%BC%E3%83%9E%20%28arrange%29.mp3
>>115918918
What an enormous link
Thank you though
>>115919057
Maybe it's not the uniform, maybe it's her regular hair that looks bad. Because god damn, she looks great there.
>>115919107
The undone hairstyle is better and if anything she changes it by the end of the final game.
Get to EK, I can sacrifice a theme to see the reaction to a rather momentous chapter.
>>115919204
And another note, Lily's arranged theme is off dropbox too
>>115917364
Watch the anime first, it's fantastic.
Play the games after if you want, but the story is somewhat different and lacks the zany humor of the show.
Avoid the manga altogether, it's unrelated garbage.
>>115919204
Unfortunately I had already started, so you're just gonna have to take it:
https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/6958066/GA/%E3%83%86%E3%82%AD%E3%83%BC%E3%83%A9%E3%81%AE%E3%83%86%E3%83%BC%E3%83%9E.mp3
>>115919329
I may have renamed it, here's the link if you need it:
https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/6958066/GA/%E3%83%AA%E3%83%AA%E3%82%A3%E3%81%AE%E3%83%86%E3%83%BC%E3%83%9E%20%28arrange%29.mp3
I promise I'll organize these and upload them somewhere properly once I've done all of them.
>>115919329
On that note too: How to download off dropbox?
Seems like an early thread again.
Does the ps2 EL file work?
>>115920043
Was busy most of the day but I will get on it after I finish what I'm doing atm. Considering how more people got on getting it, most likely
Here, for now I'll upload those to my personal stuff website so you don't have to keep those longass dropbox links.
http://thankgodfordracula.com/GA-Music/
>>115920890
Get to Chapter 1 for now, we'll discuss how to download them next time
Looks we got the usual trio going
>>115921188
I can't get over how weird the cutouts on those gloves are.
>>115921521
I just noticed those.
Kanan loves intricate dresses even though the girls never actually wear them
Ok.
I actually like how everyone else looks, but Natsume hardly even looks like Natsume anymore!
Also it's weirding me out to see Kazuya like this.
>>115921602
Intricate is fine, but those gloves kinda cross the line for me.
Milfie's still my angel though.
>>115921652
We're missing the relatively large headsize but yeah, the redesign kinda made Natsume look less unique maybe?
I also still think everything looks kinda faded out. Is it really supposed to look like this?
>>115921995
It somewhat looks like that in mine too, I wouldn't worry about it too much.Vanilla should have kept her older hairstyle
It's really bothering me, so I tried playing with saturation and contrast a bit. Does either of these look better.
>>115922420
Middle one looks the best
>>115922420
Too much saturation for me. Are you able to turn it down a bit?
>>115921974
If I woke up in a hospital with Milfie and Mint as my nurses, I'd never want to leave.
>>115922589
I'll take these two
>>115922812
Also lovely. But Milfie and Mint, being my two favorites, deliver the one-two combo I can't defend against.
All these Space Whale Jr. appearances are kinda making me want a plushie of it or something.
>>115923170
Speaking of favorite combos, any Mint + Chitose pics?
Wow, Tact sure looks different.
>>115923220
They seem to be the least matched pair
>>115923334
Looks way too young
>>115921995
Shit, has Vanilla always been roughly as tall as Chitose and Ranpha?
>>115923452
It's been four years
>>115923452
After aging up I'm sure she was.
>>115923532
I love long hair Vanilla so much
>>115923374
So nothing at all? ;;
>>115923474
And Mint didn't grow an inch? That's terrible.
That episode with the bizarro Angel Troupe with the tall and busty Mint got me all hot and bothered.
>>115923699
Combing through the folders
I'm pretty shocked, I don't think there's a picture of that combo
>>115923801
That's too bad. Also she actually looks like Natsume from this angle at least.
>>115923770
Mint is what, 16 during the first trilogy? I'm pretty sure it's too late for a growth spurt at that point.
>>115923871
Generally, everyone's sprites got smaller.
Yeah, holy shit. I cannot find a Chitose/Mint pic other than the one for the anime
Closest I got
Oh no!
>>115924724
I won't lie
I laughed and said what the fuck.
Physical guns shouldn't even be available regularly I think
This doesn't look like a very great plan.
>>115924812
dem fangs
>>115924812
Natsume has something up her enormous sleeves
I don't even.
>>115925053
If Genivres can magic, apparently Natsume can too
Is there any artwork around for Yuzu btw?
>>115925284
Natsume is already obscure enough I doubt there's any for Yuzu.
At least Genievres was around for more than one chapter
That's forbidden love!
>>115925431
Well that sucks. It should be criminal considering how cute Yuzu is.
>>115925848
Romancing girls ages 11-13 are cool thoughThis whole album, man
>>115925908
Well, at least she's in the group picture
Kazuya makes a very good mental impression of Steline.
>>115926239
It explains why she literally has no art
Who's this qt.
>>115926363
Someone with even less art.
What was seriously the point of introducing more main crew members this late in the series?
Oh god this outfit.
RIP Lunty ;;
>>115927087
His suffering gets worse
>>115926781
Her best outfit. It's those net-things near her shoulders
Well, I'm still bummed out for not regaining more GAfriends here.
As if that's going to stop me from weekly threads. Going to eventually take a breather and step out for around an hour so I just hope the thread lives out until then.
Naptime, see you in a bit or worse yet, next week
Goddammit, Cheetos.
>>115928763
With my tired eyes, I give you this
Oh shit, didRoselle die again.
Arguably less lewd than her regular uniform.
Well, still halfway through chapter 1, but it's getting late. Probably gonna head to bed soon.
See you all next week.
(If there's any more particular songs you want, I can get them through the week).
So why the resurgence of Galaxy Angel popularity? Was there a new game or OVA or something?
>>115929939
Anon making these threads played through the GAII games and wanted to share the love, so he's been persistently making threads every weekend.
Just in time
>>115929939
I'm the only one here now but my reason is something that the anon playing through the final game right now will feel in a few weeks. That feeling of emptiness when you finish a series was an experience I felt twice when I first completed the first trilogy and when I completed the second one this August.
>>115933502
Eventually, all things must come to an end and the GA threads will eventually disappear, until another anon just like you will start creating weekly threads.
Such is life.
>>115933980
True but don't count on me stopping making these for a good while
Now that's the spirit.
Also, Can you name the themes of the GA2 girls you've provided on the links above?
>>115934166
So far from what the GAII anon has given us we've got these
http://thankgodfordracula.com/GA-Music/
In order they are
Apricot's Theme Arranged
Apricot's Theme
Tequila's Theme
Lily's Theme Arranged
Lily's Theme
As for their names
Rico's Theme: Kokoro to Kokoro no Present
Lily's Theme: Lonely Heart de OK-da
Tequila and Kahlua's themes: Otome Half Tone
>>115934390
You'd think the lyric-less themes and the arranged ones would be easy to find but all we got officially released are the vocals
https://www.youtube.com/user/GAngeltai/videos
>>115934390
Thanks GA-bro.
>>115934545
Anytime
Well if that's all, see you next friday. I'll stick around until it dies
>>115935413
Plus I'll be speed-cleaning up the GA-Wiki so if need be, you can find me there
>>115916646
Why the concern about timing?
I can see it for Korbo threads because they get the usual 'wolf slut' trolling during the day but these threads always seem great.
>>115935781
It's either too early for one or bit too late.
Thankfully we've had 2 other regular faces around here other than me
yay the ban was lifted
>>115936441
What you get banned for
>>115935413
Wish I was THAT guy
>>115936470
for posting a banned link "pornsite"
>>115936566
Somehow I'm not that surprised
>>115936520
Wish I was Tact
>>115936615
Mint bully anyone?
>>115936745
Vanilla grew to Chitose's height while Mint remains in her glorious 123cm body.
At least she gets to be a loan-shark
So is this just cute girls doing cute things in space?
Getting too many threads lately to backlog much longer.
oh the shame
>>115936867
Cute girls in space doing cute things whilst blowing shit up.
Much different in the anime where we got psychopaths
>>115936846
what is she going to do if you don`t pay her back?
kill you by moe overdose?
>>115936940
I don`t know what are you talking about.
they look fine to me
>>115937032
Probably make you dress in some of her costumes. The loaned person in question is a straight tomboy so death by moe in a sense
>>115937185
Nothing to see here
Which GA would you love tenderly? Rape? Murder Death Kill? Use as a backpack? Marry?
>>115937628
Vanilla
No one
Steline
Normad
Vanilla
Feel old yet?

>>115937903
My efforts in bringing GA back pales in comparison for your love for Mint
>>115936933
Both funny and heartwarming.
>>115937870
Really old. Just like every time I see the GA 4chan banner or dead megaupload links from eons ago.
2am here. gotta go.
>>115938388
I smile every time I see it. A permanent memoryOnly more reasons to forget Chitose
>>115916646
/a/ has weekly galaxy angel threads? I had no idea.
>>115938504
Rest well and dream of Mint
>>115938512
Good thing everyone knows how to use Sharpshooter now.
>>115938547
We've been having these threads since August
Welcome welcome.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WWwQcMlMhnY
>>115938804
That was beautiful.
>>115937870
One of the oldest images I have is of Galaxy Angels; right between some Twelve Kingdoms postcards and a Shirow 2003 calendar page.
>>115939212
which, of course, I forgot to attach.
>>115939276
Megami actually looks decent
>>115939473
I don't think they were always bad.
>>115939590
Somewhere along the line, they dropped the ball
>>115939614
Newtype but whatever.
Hell, newtype is shit now too
>>115939614
Like, for instance, here.
>>115939614
Are those alternate versions voiced by the same VAs, albeit differently?
>>115939754
They are
>>115939810
Should I post some screenshots about them?
>>115939915
If you wish, I don't really see a point in it though.
How the hell have I not seen this yet
>>115940259
Ah, the memories.
Then I wonder why Almo is selectable as the player character in that flash
>>115940357
Either I have had horrible tastes back then because I don't remember it being this bad.
>>115940483
Well no, I can't bear to play it either nowdays
>>115939276
Interesting, I never noticed pic related was shopped from that.
>>115940483
>>115940535
Neither can I. It's best to just let the GA sim, the Eva sim, and the Love Hina sim just stay good memories.
Actually the Eva sim is so bad that it's funny, so I'd be willing to try that one again.
>>115940727
I'd play the Love Hina sim just to beat Naru's face in
>>115940801
Damn double standards. I'd like to see a female police officer noticing the how much abuse Keitaro has taken.
>>115940929
Looking at it now, I really hated the series
Mint>*
>>115941365
If only the artist was a "bit" better. I still really like the picture but there's quality all around.
Getting a decent picture of the full Rune team is tough
Cleaning up these pages on GA-Wiki is going to be some work.
I know at least one person played the seconds series on there but damn.
>>115941365
Well unless we get more people in here, I see little reason to keep the people/person still here up too late.
I'll be fine with letting the thread fade out but as always, I'll be up
Always kind of wondered what Milfy and Apricot's relationship is like. Apricot adores Milfy, but does Milfy look after her quite often, or are they simply just close? There's also an age gap of 7 years, which is actually kinda huge.
>>115942531
Milfie spends some time with her in the moments they have in the games. The last game does go into detail on their history together as well.
If anything, Milfie doesn't mention Apricot in the original series because I doubt they planned this far in.
See you all next week
>>115942629
Should really take the time to suffer through the last game, shouldn't I...
>>115944201
You're still up?
>>115944217
Night's always young until it's over
>>115944262
You the anon playing through the second games?
>>115944275
I'm the anon that played through half of the second games before getting fed-up
>>115944321
Ah that's right.
Well, I can't really force you to play them now.
>>115944359
Might as well see it all the way through to see if the character relationship writing gets better/take prominence. Besides, still have yet to realize my new found love for Apricot.
>>115944442
What exactly made you stop playing them?
Was it Kazuya?
>>115944505
A combination of fatigue from the second game of going through every single girls' story instead of just the girl I picked (and the Coco-bullying segment. That was a little hard to read through), watching the art quality drop in the third game when the original cast came back, and hearing that the ending gets basically hijacked by what's-his-name instead of, you know, being about Kazuya and his girl.
The story structure was kind of baffling for the second game, since this was something that Moonlit Lovers did quite well in avoiding, keeping it at a simple structure of having an episode of the relationship development between you and the girl before moving on to the main collective plot. This actually encourages multiple playthroughs for each girl, not like what the second game did.
>>115944720
Oh, and weak writing overall. Everything felt very "kiddy" compared to the originals
>>115944720
Fair points and exactly what my gripes were about those. I guess you were like me and went through all the routes before moving on to the next game.
If anything, the final game fixes the issue of the structure after the first playthrough. In the appendix section you get replay any chapter excluding the final one while being able to choose which girl you ended up with as well as Tact's so you can pretty much bypass the other 7 chapters dedicated to developing the girls which by that point, you've already heard it all.
I sort of liked putting less emphasis on the power of love conquering all and having legitimate sacrifices being made
>>115944840
I somewhat agree but I feel it's most likely because the new crew don't visually appear mature at all compared to the original crew
>>115944840
>>115944866
Plus I wouldn't exactly complain too much about good writing from GA games. I mean, the Val-Fasq were pretty pathetic villains until they got retconned
I wish to continue this talk next time since I'm tired as shit and it's 3:30AM.
OP signing off, thank you all and see you this Friday
>>115944843
As much as I appreciate a little bromance between Kazuya and a second male lead (except there wasn't much of that), I played Galaxy Angel under the mindset of being able to, you know, court one of the girls. Which is nice about the original series is you basically do just that.
I guess they were trying to go for a wider appeal with the second series of games? If the originals is set in high school, then the sequel is pretty much middle school in comparison.
>>115945180
And before I actually leave:
I guess they really wanted to up the story development
live mother fucker live
Bumping for Ranpha.
Haha what, this thread still alive? Anon playing through GAII here, had time to sleep, go to work, and this thread still here.
How the hell did this thread manage to stay alive this long?
>>115949494
its the lost technology`s doing
>>115949697
I wonder how much bullshit they'd be able to fit in an actual GA fighting game.
>>115950102
Milfy would be too broken, to be in an actuak fighting game.
Even if you manage to block and counter her attacks, se would defeat you because a fucking black hole ate the universe or some freaky shit.
How in the world?
>>115950637
>>115950102
>Milfie gets random guard blocks and drops out of combos
>Ranpha gets the most combo potential
>Mint costume equips
>Forte's godlike keepaway
>Vanilla can heal and use Normad
>Archer Chitose?
>Sagat Rico
>Rushdown Lily
>Nano with more bullshit heals and move copy
>Magiiiiiiiiic
>Knife spam Anise
>Natsume's barrier
Sounds pretty good actually
>>115952294
10-0 Lily-Kahlua matchup, shitty unbalanced game, would not play.
>>115952776
Feels good being OP
I'm surprised this lasted as long.
>>115952294
>Senator Nanostrong
>Lily the Ripper.
>>115953441
Had a light conversation with a GAII anon who feels reluctant playing the final game.
I'm playing through it a second time fully and I'm seeing as less of a drag to sit through
And it's still up. Passed out last night and dropped out of the thread quite early.
Keep having to run errands and shit this morning and the thread's still here.
What kind of sorcery is this?
Before I leave indefinitely for the next few hours I'll advocate the final game a bit.
All Rune Angels are given an entire chapter in explaining their backgrounds and origins. Crew interactions in free segments are considerably funnier imo as well. The original crew also return for a good amount of time.
Once again like MK, route differences are minimal save for the route conflict and closing chapter. The last three however are quite possibly the most impressive thing I experienced in the series.
>>115954548
>>115954736
Now I wonder if this thread is going to last all day.
>>115954973
I doubt it but I'll be semiactive
Last message for the GAII anon. If you haven't seen it already, return to MK's final free roam and check the bridge
>>115957110
Will check it when I get home.
>>115957250
If the Tapio scene with the little kid in EK's chapter 1 didn't make him great, I'm sure this will help.
And of course the rest if EK will make him even greater.
>>115957489
He's been pretty great from the beginning, really.
If I had a complaint to make about MK, it's that from the moment Coco turns awesome until they get into the corridor, both Tapio and Coco lose a lot of presence.
>>115957738
You will enjoy chapter 8 of EK immensly as its mostly bridge action
Thankfully Japan loves to two of them
>>115959771
That might just be my favorite GA pic.
>>115959925
The one with everyone is my favorite. Alas I'm on mobile so I don't have access to my cache
>>115935509
That fucking scene in the anime never stops making my laugh. That, and Forte's freakout over a mouse.
>>115960395
Tax evasion through death will be the thing if the future
>>115960547
And to think Forte was forced to "kill herself" because Ranpha missed a date.
>>115960654
Forte - Ranpha are usually the best. Especially when one turns into a guy
>>115960911
Fucking classic comedic duo that's what they are.
>>115961002
I tended to find the trippier episodes, like "In-Flight Meal", to be the most memorable.
Been a long time since I watched (rented!) any Galaxy Angel anime. I wonder how well would stand up to re-watch now?
>>115960056
This one?
>>115961958
No I think I posted here but it had legit everybody
>>115959771
the nude filther is hotter.
so sad only ranpha, chitose and milfy gets the nf, vanilla mint gets 0.
>>115916646
Why is Forte so perfect?
>>115963245
> Vanilla gets 0
All is well
>>115963530
It's the monocle and confidence
Again I come back to find the thread still going.
Stay awesome, everyone.
>>115961371
Having been re-watching episodes here and there, I still get many laughs and enjoyment from it. More than a lot of recent shows actually.
>>115963530
She's a classy lady.
>>115963245
>the nude filter is hotter.
Sorta prefer images like this that are close-but-not-quite nude.
>>115964267
It was relatively early in the anime industry but they really did great in voice acting
> Thread alive
KITTO KISEKI WAA HAJIMARUUU
>>115964855
Is that official art?
>>115965830
yes but with half nude filther.
Yuzu a qt
>>115966551
Yuzu a obscure as hell but still cute
>>115967147
Where's that OVA starring >>115926027 at?
Why must we suffer?
>>115967685
I just want a proper Rune "adaptation".
>>115967740
They're gonna have to call it something different first.
Anyway, an OVA with both game and anime casts feels like it would've been the perfect send-off for the entirety of GA.
>>115968325
Someday I hope ;_;
>>115969020
>Vita version of both game trilogies
>1hr OVA starring casts of games and anime
>Proper Rune adaptation
>Shit loads of additional merchandise
Anything else we can add to the list that confirms Broccoli must hate money?
>>115969217
Some bigass collection of ALL the music
>>115969541
Oh yeah. That would be great too.
Off to take care of some other shit again. Hope to be surprised again in another 2-3 hours or so, but I won't expect it.
>>115969769
My commute back home is at least an hour so I'm not holding my breath
To celebrate this thread living this long, have Natsume's theme:
http://thankgodfordracula.com/GA-Music/ナツメのテーマ.mp3
I suck at links
http://thankgodfordracula.com/GA-Music/ナツメのテーマ%20(arrange).mp3
>>115972681
Many thanks
>>115972681
This is unexpectedly really well composed
Does Tequila not have her own arranged theme? The omake mode for MK doesn't have one.
>>115973362
Tequila and Kalhua share an arranged theme I think. Their separate themes are just variations
>>115973635
That's what I figured, just wanted to make sure.
Anyways, Kahlua's theme: http://thankgodfordracula.com/GA-Music/カルーアのテーマ.mp3
>>115973362
May I request Forte and Vanilla's theme from ZR?
>>115973752
Unfortunately I don't have my save for ZR anymore. Are they any different from MK?
Not that it matters, apparently I don't have them unlocked on MK either.
>>115973908
For future reference, you can speed through ch.1, select Tact's wall scroll and see the corresponding theme in ch.2
Next time though
>>115974102
Don't you have a ZR/MK/EK save with their themes unlocked?
Also Kahlua's arranged theme: http://thankgodfordracula.com/GA-Music/カルーアのテーマ%20(arrange).mp3
I think I'll take a break from this and actually play the game a bit for now.
Back on the seat
Thread shall live
What amount of luck was needed for this to last?
>>115975973
Surely milfie is lurking amongst us.
>>115976013
What a glorious day
>>115975147
Hopefully you'll finish chapter 1 today
Hype put on hold since I need an hour rest if I want to make it into the night with some work
But if we must die, then so be it

Well, things sure got real really quick.>Departing with only Tapio and Noa to lead the shipAs much as I like Coco, I hope it stays like this for a while.
Holy shit this whole scene!

Flier Dance was running on cutscene power.
And it's only the first chapter still!

It really was, I couldn't even quite tell what was going on in that scene until I saw them taking down like a million enemy ships.

It'd be a boring part of the movie if Flier Dance had to whittle the ships down, but I just find it hilarious how the other specials displayed are well within their in-game power.
I miss how op it used to be in the very first game still.
Well that was one hell of a first chapter.RIP Elsior ;;
I return and it seems like the first chapter was done
