How does /k/ feel about GATE?

IMO it's a great attempt at recruitment by the japs, showing the NEETs what their fantasy shit would experience under modern firepower, and that they could literally protect their waifus by donning camo.

Thoughts?
>>
>>29356873
I'll admit it's an interesting concept, but it falls pretty flat for the most part. Season 2 has mostly been a waste of time since the story is everywhere and nowhere.

Plus a Modern Japanese "army" shitting up a Roman era type army is just blatant slaughter. It's just there to make the Japanese go JAPAN! FUCK YEAH! Most people don't realize if Japan actually went to war with another modern country they're toast and they'd have to beg America-san for help.
>>
>>29356873
Bad sum up, really it is like modern Army vs fantasy ancient army. And what I've watched so far only one person got hit with the arrow on the modern side but thousands have died on the fantasy Army
>>
>>29356950
true, the whole "avenge the elf" shit went nowhere fast. but it gave us clips like this:

Pretty much nothing but wasted potential and blatant nationalist wankery, all wrapped up in the shitty trappings of a low production budget. Avoid/10.

Its trash. Its like a two season long copy that marine ad from few years back, with the dragon and dress blues, you all know the one. That was dumb too, but at least the US military could actually do the things that its propaganda suggests it could.
>>
>>29357006
I am fairly certain Czech army from ww1 could school a roman-style army.
>>
>>29356991
That was pretty much the highlight of season 2. It all went downhill fast after that. Not to mention they're in anime original ending mode now.
>>
>>29357019

Any army that has guns could school a roman-style army.

Napoleon could do it for sure.

Heck the mongols could probably tear the Romans a new one without losing much. Roman cavalry was dogshit.
>>
>>29356873

We all had so much hype and hope, alas IT WAS NOT TO BE!
>>
>>29357413
See, the reason I said ww1 is, Napoleon's army could still be caught out of position. It took hours upon hours to line up artillery and soldiers. And until they were locked and loaded they essentially had worse spears. A really lucky and good commander could pull a Trasimine on Napoleon

That could never happened to a 20th century army. A couple of squads can mow down thousands of men running at them.

>Most people don't realize if Japan actually went to war with another modern country they're toast and they'd have to beg America-san for help.
Unless it's clapistan, china or russia, they can hold out on their own. They don't have the world's fourth biggest navy for nothing.
>>
>>29357545
>We all had so much hype and hope
Why? The source material wasn't exactly brimming with quality either, and when it was announced that the people behind Love Live! were going to handle it, it was guaranteed to be a shitshow.
>>
>>29356970
>And what I've watched so far only one person got hit with the arrow on the modern side but thousands have died on the fantasy Army
Yeah, there is no tension whatsoever because the creator would rather masturbate to NIPPON STRONK than actually create a decent story. Doubly hilarious is the amount of creative room he had considering the other world had access to magic, which could have been used to give the NotRomans some kind of parity with the JSDF, but nah, it's one slaughter after the next, because Yanai Takumi writes like a fucking 12 year old.
>>
>>29358401
Why do people keep on bringing up the fact that the staff worked on Love Live as an indicator of quality?
GATE is a garbage show, but its not due to the staff.
Its hard to turn shit into gold.

Is this the same show the webm came from where archers shoot down a formation of Apaches that never fire a single shot despite probably being in range miles ago?

They never fire ONCE but fly close enough to be in range of fucking archers and explode when hit,

No.

Oh. Alright then.

I'm actually relieved now. I've been wanting to check this show out but seeing that WebM (and assuming where it was from) put me off.

Wait for the series to be over. It'll be a week from now. Don't read the threads or bring it up in conversation in the meantime. Then marathon it. Then forget about it.
The series is a lot more enjoyable at face value without any hype or expectations.

I'm not even mad at the jingoism; it's the fact they wasted the concept on a fucking HARLEM ANIME that makes this irredeemable trash.

This would have been so much better if they instead portrayed it as a band of bros. operating in fantasyland while learning the grips and realities of fighting in a primitive yet foreign world, as sort of an allegory for the ME conflicts, but no, instead they picked gothic mary sue loli.

Support doesn't always mean boots on ground or jets flying overhead anon. Japan might not need help, won't ask for it, or even asks her allies to stay out of it. Such is life.
>>
>>29358998

Of course they *would* use clapistan, because saying no to the world's biggest dumbfucks willing to jump in front of a bullet for you would be retarded. But they *could* fight on their own if they needed to. Just not in a remote location, since their armed forces are built strictly for defense.

I dislike the show, although it makes for mindless entertainment when I'm really drunk sometimes. It's just a shitty adaptation, at least from the perspective of having read the manga and (attempted to read) the LN first.

The manga is a fun read for me but the original books and LNs seem to have a lot of stuff that both visual adaptations could have benefitted from NOT cutting out.

>>29356950
If you want to see the good old US of A or (insert other nation here) in this scenario instead, then what are you waiting for? Let's make it a show! I'd probably watch it. Any serious effort /k/ took at making a show or movie would definitely at least catch my interest.

>>29357000
>GATE is propaganda
Yes indeed it is, no one is denying that, but you guys don't realize how much worse it could be as far as Japanese propaganda goes lmao. It could have just been them talking shit about China and South Korea the whole time; killing a bunch of Not-Roman redshirts no one cares about isn't very high on the "offensive propaganda" list.

It also could have been pic related.

TL;DR - Series gets weaker with every adaptation; and although it's propaganda it's pretty innocuous as far as propaganda goes.
>>
I guess I'll be the dissenting faggot with shit taste here. I like it. A magic portal to another world opens up and gives them a reason to send in their forces, but they aren't total dicks about it and just establish a base and start diplomatic talks after the initial response of force - they could very easily roll in and conquer the place, but they don't. It's just supposed a fantasy where their forces get to independently do some good and be heroes, and it's fun. It's not the greatest anime ever, but I look forward to it every week and I'm going to miss it when it's over. The manga goes deeper into the story but it's not necessarily better, just a different take on the same story. I hope more of it get translated. And so does the LN for that matter. That's way ahead of everything else but has the least available in English.

So yeah, if you're not some pretentious hipster then you might actually enjoy it. Otherwise, stick to the poorly drawn but slightly more brutal version that edgelords gush over. Or go full weeb and read the original then try to join the JSDF yourself. Different strokes.

They toned that way down for the anime, it's one of the things a lot of fans were butthurt about. So you might like the anime more.

They also made everyone better looking for the anime, which really pissed people off for some reason.

The idea of spitting on all the ecchi romcom harem crap that passes as military genre now appeals to me, but realistically speaking, expecting the anime industry to listen to a random guy's idea is a crapshoot at best. I guess I'll save up money from my job and buy Poser Studio or something and try for myself.

Imagine if the year is 1959, and two gates opened. One outside like Topeka, Kansas and the other one deep in the heart of Russia. Maybe various other ones scattered throughout the world too. Like one in China, and one in the middle of the Pacific or something

Now these massive cold war empires have all this new land, new people, and new resources to exploit.

According to gate they didn't even bring body armor or guns.

They got their gear from airsoft stores
>>
>>29360162
well lack of body armor makes sense when you are sneaking around; you'll want to have the bare minimum of shit restricting your movements/weighing you down/making noice.
>>
>>29360051
Eh, the Japanese force didn't bring any either. They did bring a tactical blimp to tracking everyone's movements though, and had a bunch of people in a control room relaying information to their multiple ambush squads in the area waiting for those people to show up. NVGs wouldn't have made any difference in the story. Complaining about that when the conclusion was a little girl killing all three kidnap squads with her demigoddesses superpowers and giant halberd is pretty autistic m8. I'm sorry that scenario wasn't realistic enough for you because they forgot their NVGs.

Especially when he knows full well the JSDF destroyed the largest army the Empire had ever assembled without so much as even being seen

it means that he's more well trained than she is, and is most definitely physically stronger. if it wasn't so garbagely NIPOON STROONK he would have fucking killed her.

Agree with you on most points, but trying to stab with a long sword is awkward as hell and leave disappointing results. Thrusting a sword takes 2 hands

Great idea, poor execution.

I'd like to see it done right--for starters, the whole NIPPON STRONK NO NEED USA thing is stupid. If you wargamed this scenario out, you'd have the homeported carrier offering support during the initial battle, not to mention the F-15Cs out of Kaneda and maybe even some F-16s from Korea (only if it took long enough to plan the counterattack).

Then, IRL Japan (as opposed to NIPPON STRONK) would probably prefer to let the US take point through the Gate, letting us absorb the casualties and the whole messy PR thing, while they claimed first rights to all mineral resources on the other side as a result of it being on their land. Negotiations would be made, and they'd wind up with the lion's share of any loot, at virtually no cost to themselves.

Meanwhile, the most valuable resource would be secretly obtained by the US, with Japan getting bits of it more slowly--magical education. Magic has been shown to work in our world, and as Leilei has shown, in the hands of someone who knows science, it can revolutionize just about any known field. The potential is earth-shaking.

So, umm, yeah, I watch it for the scenario. The harem and NIPPON STRONK completely bore me.

If you are the crown prince of the most strongest empire in the world, why should you have to fight better than your own elite guards?

How could you even fathom the idea of women fighting like Kuribayashi? she had more idea what to expect from Zorzal than vice versa.

Because training to fight a Roman foot soldier with a bayonet is like training to punch out a lion.

Also, stop believing every soldier was some 1337 operator

We have by far the best trained soldiers today that have ever existed

The Romans won by numbers and slightly better fighters
That DOES NOT mean they're so good that they're unstoppable

This isn't an anime you weeb

To appreciate GATE you have to have served in a modern military force in some way shape or form. If you don't fit that criteria, you will be confused and bored throughout most of it.

If you disregard the modern earth setting in all regards, why not have the gate open in london, a small hamlet on mars, outside the capital city of Wibble, which populated by polymorphic squid people.

It'd be easier to swallow since we don't have to suspend our sense of disbelief.
>>
>>29363766

Modern soldiers are on average more fit and healthy thanks to modern nutrition and healthcare.

But I assure you modern infantry, unless they have a special reason to, do not train much in hand to hand, for the simple reason they have guns and don't need to hand-to-hand.

They most definitely do not train against opponents with shields and swords. A modern soldier against a legionnaire would be unfamiliar with how to fight against scutum and gladius, but the legionnaire would be somewhat familiar if he rationalizes rifle+bayonet as a spear.
>>
>>29363078
Except that's bullshit.
This is real life, not the raid.
Also daily reminder 90% of the JDSF is office workers in military uniform.
Even the US military, the best funded in the world, is full of retards.

Well, black people do love anime. All of them.

I will recount on experience I had when I sat at the back of the bus and some blacks entered and sat on nearby seats and started jibbering in a northern african language while glancing suspiciously at me. I started reading, then one spoke in english:
>aww shit nikka he got GITS, hold up, hold up
He then explained to me that they were going to take my money and my jacket because they were cold, but he decided not to because that was his favorite anime and he was interested in knowing where to get GITS "comic books". I told him the name of a local store and told him that it's dangerous to rob people because some of them carry guns.
