Did they fuck during this scene? That was an awfully convenient cutaway.

Tell that to Kira Yamato.
>>13978121
Why would he fuck a doll with no nipples?
Was it true that Amuro was supposed to be killed halfway through the show which forced the White Base to team up with Char?
>>13976332
Does anyone have a red RX-78 gunpla?
If you're talking about Casval's Gundam it's a Gihren's Greed plot line that develops if Zeon wins and Char is alive. He founds Neo-Zeon and takes in all the feddies he can get and Deikunist zeeks, builds a zeon-based RX-78 clone, and fights the principality.
>>13976344
I know that but I heard that Tomino was originally going to kill Amuro and make Char the protagonist of 0079
Bros is this shit UC gundam or what? I'm confused now.
Yes, it takes place ~500 years in the future
every gundam is UC senpai
>>13975741
No.
What went wrong?
I couldn't tell you. I've never even heard of it.
Not enough CAST OFF scenes where the two of them bare everything as they purge their armour?

Sonic Meat best MOTW
Holy shit, I can't wait to never watch this series ever again in my entire life.
>>13975123
Then don't. How about you start the thread with some legitimate criticism instead of making Gundam Shitposting Central #294710?
Nice blog by the way.

I can't wait to never see your ugly ass face, OP.
Is he right /m/?
http://www.therobotsvoice.com/2009/12/8_reasons_why_robotech_is_better_than_macross.phpI don't even think RobotechX can laugh at this
Without clicking I'm going to try and guess the reasons.
1. "English is easier for us to understand"
2. "By surgically grafting three stories together you create a superior generational epic!"
3. "Macross's sequels are dumb and gay and have too many pop idols"
4. "Robotech sounds cooler as a name"
5. "Narration is better for retarded people"
6. "Robotech novels"
7. "Robotech: Battlecry"
8. "We're getting a movie! We'll be the new Transformers franchise!"
How...

Only a little wrong (the article, for example, cites Ray Fokker being a superior name to Ray Focker as a major reason).
The article is literally tagged "Nerd baiting" though so it's obviously framed as a troll article.
>>13975011
Pretty close, actually. Throw in a couple points about the representation of women, and you would've nailed it.
So now that thestardust has settled, and if you've used [EG]'s BD release as a chance to rewatch it, maybe not for the first time, what's your verdict on 0083?
I know we still have a thread about the release up, but this thread can be solely about discussion of the OVA series itself, and not EG's release.
These are my impressions coming immediately off rewatching the series on BD, after previously only having watched both the series and movie once.
Personally, I thought the first 7 episodes were absolutely fantastic, I really enjoyed...

The art and animation, despite the less than optimal quality of the BDs (EG's thread should still be up, there's some info there >>13953925) it still looked amazing, leagues ahead of the DVDs. All of the Mobile Suits looked fantastic, be it clean or battle damaged. The Zakus, Rick Doms, Gelgoogs, GM Customs all looked brilliant. The GP01Fb Zephyranthes is still one of my favourites, and while the Dendrobium in itself isn't something I like too much, the Stamen is also an unfortunately underused...

>Is it still worth watching? Absolutely - the gorgeous animation, art and mecha designs make it well worth the 6 or so hours you'll spend on it, despite whatever gripes you have with the plot or characters.
I like you. Plotfags can eat a dick.
>>13974524
>I thought the first 7 episodes were absolutely fantastic
I have no idea how people can hold this opinion. The ONLY good thing about 0083 is the space battles, which are all in the second half. The writing is moronic from start to finish.
rebember the girl of the aqua guncannon from thunderbolt?

Why do people think this shit manga looks good?
Hey, which was supposed to be a higher-performance machine, the kampfer or bernie's late-production zaku ii?
Are there any kampfer'y ms designs besides that red one from stardust memory?
Also, does the kampfer look kinda like one of those meltran power armors from macross to anyone else, or am I crazy?
Kampfer.

That image from 080?
>>13974000
It's about 0080, but I think it was in a magazine or something, not the actual show.
>>13974000
>>13974025
Step aside plebs
you dont know shit
Is it ever explained or mentioned where Amuro and the RX-78 is in the Thunderbolt manga?
>>13973124
Amuro doesn't exist
so does that mean its another continuity? I'm unfamilar with thunderbolt as well though I do want to get some of the kits
>>13973133
Is a AU Gundam with UC Paint coating
>super dimensional fortress
>the universe macross is set in is literally super
>somehow a real robot show
explain this
>>13973085
Super and Real are only used for SRW games to differentiate power types. It doesn't mean anything outside of that.
>>13973085
>real robot
>powered by magical flower reactors and the power of music

Tomino shows have always had poor reception and sales since the 70s. His stuff seems to just appeal to his niche fanbase initially and then possibly become more widely appreciated down the line.
>>13973028
Does it matter both are shit. No use comparing trash with trash
We need to work on compiling a list of mecha series that have crazy punk biker dudes for an episode or two.
>Tekkaman Blade
>Blue Comet SPT Layzner
>Metal Armor Dragonar
>Armored Trooper VOTOMS
What else is there?
G Gundam and Gundam X. Also, do Reboot, Carranger and Gingaman count?
>>13972854
I would say that tokushit counts.
>>13972815
This is basically every comic, cartoon, and a big chunk of movies from the 80's. It was a fun little cliche that kept coming up over and over again. They work as nice villains with no need for back story or motivation. They're just jerks.
