This looks terrible
Sensei won the Satorubowl right?
>>139073956
Probably that they couldn't do a female version without turning it into a pantsu anime.
>>139074078
It would've been the nost hilarious, delicious irony if they lay it on a bit thicker and forgot the Airi end. A homo end is what those cuckposters deserve after all their bitching.
>>139074078
I want a doujin where shota Satoru literally sluts himself for sensei to avoid the murders.
>>139074014
I was just about to tell you guys to check out Erased threads.

>>139074132
>mfw 2/3 of the episode was dedicated to sensei and satoru filling each others holes
Airi end was pretty flimsy since the director left out all her scenes in favor of homo.

No homo.
I'm running a panel at a small convention about why fujoshi (and, to a lesser extent, fudanshi) enjoy mecha anime. Part of the panel is about the obvious stuff (mecha gets super-hyped so a few fujoshi watching it is inevitable, some fujos like watching robots beat the shit out of each other and shipping is just a side benefit, Wing fandom indoctrinated an entire generation of Western fujos), but the meat of the panel is about tropes that fujoshi enjoy that frequently come up in mecha anime, like "rivals," "uniforms," "torture scenes," and "war with high stakes." /cm/ is dead and /m/ isn't quite gay enough for this, so if you have a moment to list a few of your favorite things in mecha anime, I'd appreciate it.
>>139077105
One step at a time, anon. We'll get there.
>>139077244
What a fucking stupid idea anon. Think about what you're doing for a second.
>>139077244
There's a saying that starts with "If you have to ask."
>>139074472
Two words: god eater
>>139077329
Mostly I just wanted to show stupid screencaps.
>>139077244
Mechas: I like mechas especially the winged elegant ones. I grew up on mechas (like the transformers animu) and really liked the toys too and enjoyed transforming them as a kid. I love how versatile they can be from ship to robot. I also like the variety of weapons and shit, especially optical ones like beamspam and lasers. I also look forward to how the designs evolve with the plot.
Scifi: Scifi and pseudoscientific explanation. Although mechas rarely get as hard scifi as books like Blindsight, for example, they tend to try and give explanations and structured rules of phenomena happening. There's also the possibility of alien worlds and places with higher tech.
Chessmaster type characters: Unlike capeshit or general magic tier shit, limited by the imposed restrictions of the system characters must be able to come up with reasons for why they make x manoeuvre or x battle strategems so it is always interesting to watch how the characters manage to trap and kill each other.
Machine capabilities: Everyone loves to compare the specs and designs of different mechs against each other and estimate their relative ability to overpower one another.
Plot tweests: Mechs tend to have guaranteed betrayal, changing alliances and divided loyalties which is a fun trope.
Art style: encompasses good choice of colours, linework and anatomy of characters as well as character designs. Uniforms especially theNazi Germany styleis a great formal style.
Soundtrack: Tend to be widely downloadable and tends to have electronic/synth elements. Sawano in particular is a great composer and there are definitely some musical gems out there.
>>139074078
Absolutely.
I'm glad everyone agrees that double suicide ending would be the best way to end this show.
>>139077434
Play Sugata and Takuto's panting in the background.
>>139077622
Recurring character archetypes: Even if your favourite character eg Char dies, you basically have a guarantee that some aspect of them is going to resurface in another mecha. Much like a fanfiction, it is a quasi guarantee that if you like one mecha you will like them all.
Recurring tropes: same as above.
Genre features: Mechas can blend scifi with other speculative fiction for example the fantasy elements such as Newtype magic. Therefore, the genre prevents itself from becoming cold and unfeeling in presentation.
Unrelated factors: high density of male characters, often the directors sought to deliberately include pandering, machine carnage (for example the destruction of mechs can make one cringe especially if one has become attached to the design), the schadenfreudian destruction of innocence (when the viewer knows that Understanding will inevitably result in carnage but the characters hold out a slim hope that their ally will come back to sanity or come back to their side and how each character deals with that confrontation.)
>>139077244
Convention going cancer who even hosts panels, actually comes here.
>>139077792

I think there is also the generational aspect where you get to see the effects of one generation of pilots affect the second generation. It has an extremely intricate EU filled with easter eggs for viewers it's fun to play a game of 'spot the reference' in this show. I think that's why animes like Unicorn become so successful, because there is so much cumulative pandering for UC fans rather than the end of a season resulting in an end of the story.
>>139077889
Who the fuck cares about what a demographic likes anyway? It's like explaining why otaku like moe anime.

I attribute my attraction to mecha anime more to my love of kaiju-themed films than to anything else. I think I may be some kind of outlier though since I don't really care for Gundam.

Thanks. I have some of these in my fujobait tropes slides (probably should have lead with this) and will work the others in.
I'm open to suggestions and replacements for the illustrative caps, by the way. It skews too heavy toward my Banrise taste as it is.
>>139077716
Heh. I'll see what I can do.
>>139077976
Eh. I had fun trying to think it through, getting caps for stupid shit, and rewatching SZS for Harumi's evolving taste in Gundam ships. My goal is to keep things pretty unserious.
>>139073956
Targeting the usual sports anime demographic obviously.
>>139079034
Kawoshin was Anoo self-insert fanfiction about him and Ikuhara
>>139079102
I'd say that since Patlabor's should either be moved over or take a place firmly in the middle as Noa Izumi is the protagonist and also female.

>>139077244
I don't watch much of it, but the attraction for me when I do is definitely the high-stakes drama/suffering. Emotionally-devastated cute boys do things to my heart. But really I don't think that's a fujoshi/fudanshi thing; eg. a lot of the love for Madoka (or Urobuchi in general) is for similar reasons.
The straight-up pandering doesn't hurt, either.

Feels good to prepare myself for the comfiness of Natsume.
Active Raid season 1 ended yesterday.
Bad guy Mythos was kinda gay for Bird (you're my best partner, bird - wanna watch pictures of the desert with me? - I'm gonna share admin rights over Japan if you know what I mean).
But in the end, Bird betrayed him, sold him out to the government and bailed out, leaving the country.
That is true friendship between guys.

You've got a feeling of resistance toward going out with a man.

Are the pirates going to get an AU comic also? Will Shuzo sodoku in it too?

I think this one is to only commemorate the fact that the Shinganz managed to get 2nd place in the popularity ranking of 2015, which was pink pirate-themed.
On the other hand, it will fall neatly with the release of the Shorts, and the Trichros are popular enough that having them starring in another AU comic would not be out of place. I could see him as a fabulous merchantmen admiral hunting for dread pirate Rom stealing rum.
We'll probably know more at around May or June.

True, true. Although I think that will be "only" about the anime shows. I doubt that the voice actresses of Plasmagica will know much about such a Shinganz-centric event. Except perhaps for Cyan's VA Inagawa, who does promotion for most kinds of SB69 stuff.

It's less about it being homo or not and more about being able to laugh at shipperfags because schadenfreude is fun. I'm usually not vocal about that and if it does become canon it's also okay.

>I think this show is too serious and doesn't have enough bright colors to attract the usual shitposters.
I hope the threads will be like Rakugo ones but I'm sure the first three weeks will get the usual it's fujoshit posts
>>139087313
Instead of posting about things we like, we bitch about the things others post.
>>139077244
I love the potential drama, the military/war setting and how love can blossom on the battlefield.
>>139087165
That was me, I'm sorry. I knew it would eventually get out of hand so that's why I stopped but I didn't mean any harm.
>>139088433
Dem muscles.
I forgive you.
>>139088433
No need to apologize to that shitposter. You stopped long ago so it's not spam, he brought it up for no good reason. You can bet there'll shitposts about Joker Game out of spite next season.
>>139073742
>people buttblasted that it isn't ugly MANRY ouendan shit
Who knows maybe they'll have them in as cameos or something but look at those backflips and tell me you're not ready for delicious undershirt/undershort shots of the highest degree. The only downside to this is the fatty.
>>139088541
>You stopped long ago
He didn't, though. He posted it twice this month, 4 times in total. As long as he never does it again, he's forgiven, 4 times isn't too bad, the Killuafag is worse.
>>139088789
4 times and you're actually complaining? Are you trying to make a joke or something?
>>139088789
Four times isn't spam and he didn't do it in every thread.
>>139088789
That isn't spam and the last post was two weeks ago.
In my heart of hearts I still hope for a sequel or remake.
But if it were a sequel the characters would be like 30 now and it's weird to think they'd manage to live that long.
>>139078435
>perfect boy trapped in a shit show
He deserved better.
>>139088851
I'm not, I was defending him.
>>139088789
>four posts only
Thanks for proving that it wasn't spam like that one retard claimed it was.
>>139088789
Embarassing. That isn't even close to those epik "threadly reminder" meme posts like Killua or soon, let alone spam.
>>139089022
We he designed with the intention of being perfect for rape and bullying?
>>139073742
Hell yeah I'll watch this shit.
As long as it is about cheer and we get to actually see some tumbling and not about the acquiring of new members.
Who am I kidding, I'd watch this shit regardless.
>>139089177
>fluffy white hair
>chubby cheeks
>subservient and loyal
prime bullying material
>>139088737
I don't get the point in having a fatty in something sports related. You'd actually have to be in good shape to participate in it.
>>139089177
I wanted the watch Aldnoah Zero just for him until anon stopped me and advised me to only stick to the doujins.
>>139074622
>>139083299
Guess it is time for me to rewatch this in honor of the news.
>>139089177
Slaine is for loving, anon. Rapes are for trash like Kirito.
>>139089378
Anon is a faggot, S1 wasn't that bad.
>>139077244
This is extremely stupid.
That's like asking why women like action, trillers, and basically any other genre anon.
Just ask yourself "why do I like mecha?" chances are that the women that watch it like it for the same exact reasons.
>>139089543
S2 wasn't that bad either, at least with introducing hot Martians. Just don't watch it for a plot that makes sense.
>>139089378
Anon advised you well.
Local priest ruins everything.
>>139073742
No ouendan, no watch.
>>139089719
I'm going to lose my shit if the LN breaks up my odd couple ship permanently over that goddamn ice bitch.
>>139089719
God I hate Haruhiro
Ranta has every right to want to kick his sorry ass
>>139089811
Mary is true route.
>>139089865
Mary is a cunt and deserves to be raped to death by Orcs, not be saved by Ranta getting driven out of the party.
>>139089615
>at least with introducing hot Martians
And they all died in the most stupid and useless way possible. S2 was absolute shit, and I'm still angry about Asshime.
>>139090009
>all died
Not my always-amazing husbando.
