>In particular, the comments of director Mamoru Oshii (Ghost In The Shell) received significant attention, when in a mail magazine sent out at the beginning of December, he criticized Evangelion for being “all style and no substance.” He goes on to say that it's “an endless repetition of stereotypes and facsimiles of things we've seen elsewhere,” and that Evangelion creator Hideaki Anno “has no themes or motifs.” He draws comparisons between Anno and another acclaimed anime director, Hayao Miyazaki (Princess Mononoke, My Neighbor...

I love Oshii to death but no, he's wrong.

This would all be fine if we had Teddy Long in charge of Japan to book these guys in some tag team matches.

Oh look, it's another "old quote by anime person criticising another anime person/genre/show with a question at the end asking either Was he right? or Do you agree /a/ / /m/?" thread.
Christ, this board needs a janitor.
So, what's the verdict on the new suit, /m/?

Mobile Suits with shields > Mobile Suits without shields
Everytime I see a MS without a shield, its painful. That pilot deserves more protection.
>>13641155
Do beam shields count as shields in this case? How many mobile suits have neither, cause I don't think there are many.
I find it weirder that ejection systems are so rare frankly. The pilots deserve that as much, if not more than a shield.
>>13641155
Gotta disagree with you on that one.
>>13641155
But Shields are the Redshirts of the Gundam Universe. They exist only to die so that you know how dire the situation is. They don't provide any actual protection until F91.
So if the Double Riders and Shocker Riders were designed and built to be minions of Shocker, why do they not look like the other inhumanoids? These guys are clearly what is meant to be a suit while the others seem to be more organic in nature.
Logically speaking in universe it is easier to account for skills if you base it off a humanoid form.
Out of universe it is probably because the suits would be easier to make/wear, I think. Smaller and mostly identical to the Rider 1 suit = less cash spent on the suits = more cash for special effects.
Professor Midorikawa designed and built the Hopper/Rider type, while Shocker built the others.
>>13640353
The mutants in The First were just leather suits and animal helmets like the Riders, though.
Where does he rank as a pilot in the SEED universe? His takedown of the Forbidden and the Raider gundams are often overlooked. He didn't even enter seed mode to do it. Kira and Athrun couldn't take out the Forbidden and Raider even in seed mode.
Forbidden was brilliant but Raider doesn't even count. The pilot had gone insane and was flying around randomly shooting.
>>13639277
still had the wherewithal to take the buster's cannon and know how to use it though to shoot the Raider, right?

Hey /m/, can we have a Megaman thread?
>There are people on here who haven't played this
>>13636633
Id like to have one but they always end up just being mega man faggots whining about how they only have over a hundred games to play and their series is over with more games to play than most other fan favorites have combined
>>13636633
So, what's so special about this RomHack?
I quite like Megaman 4.
>>13636661
Basically, you have...
>new bosses
>weapon changes
>new stage designs
>lots of references to other things (each music track comes from a non-Mega Man game, for instance)
>bosses have new attacks and are overall much harder (Toad Man isn't a pushover anymore!)
>ending that slightly changes depending on what you do before...

You now have Megas XLR to pilot, what do you do with it?
Destroy the DMV duh...

Restore it to its original proper design, call in Galvatron Prime, and proceed to begin a new world order in order to usher an age of mecha and anime.

How would you welcome a Star Wars serie of OVAs made by Sunrise telling the story of an Imperial squadron fighting the rebels?
>>13634303
I think it would be interesting if they made one from a squadrons point of view who's job it is to hunt down Wedge Antilles and the rest of Rogue Squadron, maybe have Luke do cameos on some of the bigger missions etc. Have the Imperials get thrashed constantly and lose a lot of men, but it would have to be done well as to humanize them. Make them people, not just Imperial soldiers.

Just finished a video about Giant Gorg. Anyone want to talk about the series or any of Yas's other Non Gundam works? It made me really want to check out Crusher Joe & Venus wars. Are those any good, or was Gorg just a fluke?
Well anyway here's the video, please tell me what you think.

Crusher Joe is a great fun 80's space adventure film. It's not high art or anything, but it's great for what it is. You should deffinitly check it out.
Love the reviews btw
Really good stuff. It's a great and underrated series.
She wasn't that bad.
She at least deserved a good ending.
>>13627473
I feel like the only person who actually liked her character, her arc and her ending. She wasn't happy, but she was well set up and her unhappiness was of a transient nature. I don't know how her life would have turned out, but considering that she survived a war, became head of her family and was rich as well as well connected I don't think it'd have turned out badly once she finished getting over Loran.
>>13627473
Sochie was one of the few things in Turn A's story that I actually cared about. In a show full of caricatures she seemed really genuine and human, and I was really sad for her at the end. Other Tomino characters have gotten it much worse, of course, but it would have been nice to see at least a sliver of optimism, some new boy talking to her in the ending, anything other than her being enveloped in bitterness and throwing that fish in the river. It's normal to assume that she would eventually get over it...
