Diebuster isnt nearly as good
>>123528293It isn't very good. I haven't seen Diebuster yet.
And Gunbuster isn't nearly as good as Eva.
Diebuster is betterThey're both perfect 10/10s
Gunbuster has one of the best endings in animeRest is pretty average thoughMaybe I didn't embrace that 80s cheese enough
I liked the first half of Gunbuster more than the second.I liked the second half of Diebuster more than the first.I liked Diebuster more overall.
Gunbuster was mostly pretty bad, but when it was good it was fucking greatDiebuster was mostly mediocre, but when it was good it was just good.And yet I still fucking adore both.
I prefer Diebuster.Spoilering your shit opinions doesn't make them any less shit.This doesn't apply to my opinions though.

Gunbuster had lower lows and higher highs.
Diebuster was middle-of-the-road all the way through.Aim for the Ace is better than either of them.
>>123528293
What was that?
I don't like either one of them. People forget that other than the awesome fights, Gunbuster was a horrible shoujo school anime parody. Diebuster is OK by itself but it's too lolwacky for the serious plot as far as I'm concerned.

Nice shit taste.
>>123532621
I expected the most amazing thing ever so it was a disappointment.
>>123532689
Its because you autism'd hard.
>>123532727
Or, it's just not very good.
>>123532767
Or, you have shit taste.
>>123532621Diebuster has
-Better music
-Better art
-Better animation
-Prettier colors
-Better characters
>>123528293
Gunbuster 2nd half > Diebuster > Gunbuster 1st half.
It's that easy.
The 2 shows had a very different approach to the same thing anyway.
>>123528293
I only watched it last year and I was not impressed compared to gunbuster
Diebuster > Gunbuster
>>123532879Diebuster has:
- Shitter OST
- Was animated almost 2 decades after Gunbuster
- Shit color schemes
- Awful characters
Its basically a watered down superflous sequel to Gunbuster, which is why someone like you loves it. Less talking, less exposition, less coherent story; more action, less development (actually basically none), and mindless entertainment.
Enjoy your shit taste.
As someone who likes Gunbuster, the elitists are awful. It's especially funny to see them present it as deep or some shit when it's a slightly more coherent Daicon film.

That sums it up pretty well.

You aren't seriously going to try and argue that Diebuster wasn't largely a very simplified story in terms of coherence, dialogue, and atmosphere compared to Gunbuster.
As someone who likes both, Diebuster is very much a departure in terms of its presentation compared to the original series. Its really just a sequel in name only. They could remove Gunbuster 2 and retitle it to "Top Squadron" and it stand fine on its own. Diebuster is generally just light-hearted, little drama, and feels more like a straight up Super Robot inspired series focused on action and concessional gag humor.
There's a huge mood whiplash I know for a lot of people who go from watching Gunbuster to Diebuster. Its styled and set so dramatically differently, you feel it from the very start and it keeps that feeling on you till the very end.
Talking in spoilers is stupid, just say your fucking opinions and take the backlash like a fucking man
Gunbuster has the best ending of all times
>>123532879
That sums it up pretty well.
>not enjoying both
>>123533022
>mindless entertainment
A stark contrast to the literary merit of Gunbuster.
>>123528293The final episode is the best single episode of any anime I've ever seen
>>123533519
80s fags aren't allowed to enjoy any sequel or remake and if you so much as MENTION them you better be prepared to deal with people whining about floofy hair

Actually I just saw his post while scrolling down the first page and needed to get something out of my system. Sorry anon. I'll delete the post and go drink some bleach.
>>123533682
kill yourself you nerd
Diebuster finale > Gunbuster > Diebuster
Gunbuster was a slow burner compared to Diebuster but it had a better payoff at the end.
Both of them are great and worth a watch if you even remotely enjoy mecha anime, though.
>>123528293The endings of both make me cry like a bitch every time anyways
>anime that actually had the soviet union set in the future
>good
Gunbuster plot was bare bones friendship and mechas shit. Diebuster had some great twist that felt very natural in comparison.
When some people talk about Diebuster being simplified, I can only imagine they are talking about the mecha and space details, which was minute. Outside of the details, the plot very well done. You always have this feeling that something isn't right and the show rewards that feeling by revealing another twist. A good plot will have you figure out the twist about a few minutes beforehand. Not to late making you confused and angry but not to long as to have the feeling of anticipation wasted.The pacing before the Titan reveal was great.
The only reason I can imagine someone would prefer Gunbuster is because they're an oldfag who was a kid when they first seen it or they prefer the shoujo esque tone of Gunbuster to the maniac tone of Diebuster.
Or perhaps you watched the second one first and some of the plot twist didn't seem as interesting to you until you watched the first one where they all started to click.
