Kunio Okawara is a pretty cool guy. Here's his thoughts on working on 0079. (Source: his autobiography).
>At this time, Sunrise was still a small company. I would come and go for work, and then be called in for the next one. And so on. There was no end to the work for Sunrise. I got a call from Yoshiyuki Tomino for me and Yasuhiko-san to do Gundam. Originally Studio Nue was supposed to do the mecha design, but they were very well versed in sci-fi and were very strict on the smallest of details. The animation direction Yasuhiko-san wanted to...

>Gundam with a Mouth
>Studio Nue and Yasuhiko-san personally handed me a powered suit that they had designed for Starship Troopers. Yasuhiko-san's own artistic interpretation of it was the rough draft of the Guncannon. However, I felt that there was something off when looking at that drawing. It was cool for an adult-oriented sci-fi series, but our job was not simply to create anime, but it was also important that we made toys that met the expectations and desires of children. Put simply, it wasn't flashy enough...

Colors that Sell
>When it comes to toys, there are specific colors that sell. The "three basic toy colors" of yellow, red, and blue were chosen for Gundam. If these three colors are combined well, kids will be very interested when it's put in a showcase. Tomino-san had the idea of it being entirely white, but that wouldn't sell toys. Chogokin at the time would always incorporate those colors. When in the toy store showcase, they had to fight and win against robots from other companies. The fighting isn't just in the anime.

The Zeon Army's Mecha
>Next up was the enemy mecha. Common sense at the time said that enemy mecha would never get merchandise, so just Tomino-san and I worked on them. Tomino-san's instructions were simply: "Keep the monoeye."
>The main mecha were going to the sponsors where they would make a lot of modifications, so my frustration was rising. At that point, enemy mecha would never get merchandise. They would get beaten so quickly that nobody would care. But I wanted desperately to make something...

What's his endgame?

Crashing this plane
>>14467253
Complete global saturation.
I don't know, but I do know he's a pretty big guy.
What does /m/ think of Argevollen?

I enjoyed it. Was hoping for a second season to dismantle evilwar-starting corporations.
Also, 10/10 screaming.
absolutely terrible
Only really watched it for Jamie...
Hey /m/, can you briefly (or in-depth) explain Mazinger ZERO to me? In terms of ability or powerlevel I guess. I needed more context for V.
>>14454485
Beats up everything in Mazinger-verse, but then Kouji calls his SRW buddies and they kick it's ass.
>>14455319
And one that wasn't.
>>14454485
the ultimate Mazinger, not even GREAT Mazinkaiser could stop it. It runs on the Witch king clause though so they went "I AM NO MAZINGER!" and beat it eventually.

What the fuck, Why isn't it airing for two weeks? Isn't everything from this season basically done with?
>>14406604
First season wasfun
What do you think of it?
Bad on steroids.
It was alright. The title-drop was dumb as hell though
What rank was the Gouf pilot supposed to be?
Was there planned follow up seasons that just never came through?
Or was this last shot just a desperate attempt to create hype so a budget for more seasons could be approved?
It was for fun, anon.
Imagawa shows aren't allowed to have sequels anyway.
>>14489884
IIRC neither.
>>14489892
But we got The Next Generation, though

>even their fucking Observation pods have monoeyes
Jesus dead lifting Christ, the Zeeks sure did love that monoeye design.
>>14488886
It's a camera, what's the point of adding one more at the same place?
>>14488886
>>14488896
It's probably a Zaku head assembly with an engine.
Monoeye manufacturer lobbying.

That hatch was cripple-proof.

When does Crossbone Gundam get good? So far the villains are mustache-twirling-tier evil.
>>14487051
>mustache-twirling-tier evil
The big main villain does have a reason for being bugnuts.
>So far the villains are mustache-twirling-tier evil
this is what /m/'s definition of "good writing"
this is what /m/'s been looking for all their lives
>>14487088
Not even a good villain like Butcher from Zambot
So, what's the third grouping in the image? You've got your main television series, your OVAs, and your.... manga? Re-release? Remaster?
>>14486305
"Event". Very vague.
>>14486305
Maybe anniversary events? Or the BD releases?
Or maybe rebroadcasts, this one seems a bit more likely.
>>14486665
Gundam Expo is an event
Yo, so a good friend of mine is moving soon, we and some other friends get together every week to watch Toku and the like, so on the last meetup I wanted to make some toku themed snacks. Any ideas?
But a shit ton of fruit and say it's Gaim themed.
>>14486297
Don't forget to stuff a padlock into the fruit for maximum authenticity.
>>14486250
Donuts and mayonnaise, for the Wizard element.
