Finished VOTOMS recently and I need something explained:
Is he autistic?
>>13489706
>>13489706
Of all the misused buzzwords, this is the most I've seen one misused.
Nah, the word autism was invented in 2009. VOTOMS was made back in the 80s.
>>13489751
>autism was invented in 2009
You'd best be baitin, son.
>>13489754
>>13489741
What about edgy?
>>13489758
Why /tv/? It does belong in the /trash/, but what's it got to do with television?
Is he Eiji?
>>13489803
Yes, Eiji is a Chirico
>>13489706
He's a veteran with PTSD.
>>13489760
It's because both /tv/ and /v/ are viewed, relatively rightly, as boards which are primarily meme cesspools.
>>13490101
>reaction images dictate contact
Please stop.
>>13490125
>Contact
Woops, I meant content.
>>13489988
Because /tv/ popularised the use of the term "autist" to describe any character with idiosyncratic tendencies.
>>13489741
>>13489759
Right behind kek
>>13490160
/m/ has been calling characters autistic way longer than /tv/.
>>13490160
Space Autism is a common trait among mecha protagonists
>>13489706
Yes
He was autistic but he got a girlfriend in the end. Having a girlfriend cures autism.
>>13491730
But the girlfriend died. Did his autism come back?
>>13491734
I never watched past Shining Heresy since it was so bad.
Does anyone have the "that's not a name" pic?
Why didWisemaneven want a successor?
>>13492194
Pailsen files was OK, but you're definitely not mssing much.
Phatom Arc was even worse than shining heresy.
Does anyone have a download link for that VOTOMS guidebook Tim Eldred translated?
>>13497015

Thanks
I saw alot of Votoms DVD at a half price books store near my house. My favorite /m/ series are UC Gundam and slowly Getter Robo. Should I give it a try?
Where can I find the English dub of the first episode?
>>13489712
>>13489757
>>13492194
dat OP tho

>>13492194
I don't think anything takes place post Shining Heresy
>>13497523
I own them, don't. The US dvds of Votoms were from before the series was remastered, so the quality is lower than the dvd rips from G_P
>>13489759
Edgyliterallyisn't misused much at all.
>>13499662
I disagree and ask you to prove your opinion
>>13499676
No, I cannot be arsed participating in an internet argument. I said what I said based upon the usage of the word that I have seen recently and that is all I have to say on the subject.
>>13498667
No, a couple of them do. Alone Again and Phantom Arc, IIRC.
>>13499786
Fair enough I guess, but what are those recent usages of it where you've seen it used correctly if I may ask?
>>13498668
The dub pilot was also shit quality between the masters used and the way they handled the dubbing.
>>13497523
You may want the first volume just for the director commentary on the first two episodes.
>>13489706
Why was Pailsen Files such a half assed piece of shit?
Does anybody have a download link to Shining Heresy's OST? I'd like to have the OP/ED at the very least.

>Is he autistic?
You're autistic, you dimwit.
>>13489706
He's a man deprived of any emotions he had, who desperately tried to confront his violent past and find new life with his waifubut failed ;_;
>>13497456
>download is no longer available
Any other link for this?
Am I the only one who didn't like the direction VOTOMS went towards the end?

works fine for me, but try this

>>13510674
Can't blame ya. It's kinda like Jesus killin' his dad.
>>13510674
It wasn't as solid as what came before it. I think most people would agree with you on that. I feel like we could have easily gone without that entire last arc.
>>13511623
I liked the last arc a lot better than the one before it.
>>13500362
>>13500651
Nigger I have the DVDs and Im glad to have em, Remasters dont mean shit when the series is that good and its the only way youll ever own it. Theyre cheap as fuck and I didnt notice anything glaringly bad about the quality
also I dont have any dub on mine?
>>13510674
The only thing that bothered me about the last arc was how much they played up Chirico's "luck" in subsequent OVAs.
>>13510674
It was kind of anticlimatic in a way. At least when you sit down to think about it. We did get a couple of cool sequences though
Any reason why for ATs, there should be more rockets than missiles?
>>13489706
No. Are you? Yes.
>>13489976
>>13503704
>18-year-old
>veteran with PTSD
No
>>13492786
Here you go
>>13515921
Yes.
>>13515951
Oh nice, thanks.
>>13497546
The torrent for the entire show I found came with the audio for the english dub of episode 1. I think its the first result when searched
>>13497722
I could never get the DU DU, DU DU DU DU, DU DU DU DU part out of my brain after hearing this OP.
Same about the DUM DUM DUM, DUM DUM DUM DUM~~~~ DUM DUM DUM from the original OP.
>>13522433
Youtube put my upload of it back up:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5P9GoPXIR0U
I got a weird copyright claim from someone called "elicense" or something and figured they were just a copyright troll. I guess Youtube agreed.
>>13515921
Did you even watch the show?
He was a child soldier. This was apparently not uncommon in the latter part of the war.
>>13525791
Been a while since someone posted the twins. That the Comic Bonbon version, right?
I've been wondering if there's been some translation for it.
In regards to the pile guns found on the legs of an AT, are there really two?
>>13526698
If you mean two per foot, no. Just one on the outside of each foot.
>>13526713
I know there is only one per leg, but if that is the case, how do choose which one to use as a brake?
>>13526760
are you that guy writing that votoms fanfiction
>>13510674
Most people will agree with you, but I loved the second half far more than the first. I found it absolutely gripping.
>>13511799
I liked the OVAs until I got to Toots of Ambition. Good Lord...
>>13497456
>the Secret Society wasn't formed until after the events of the first episode
How did I miss this?
>>13526773
And what if I say yes?
>>13489757
YOU SUCK MCBAIN!!
I never got why they didn't use the space thrusters on ground. Being able to maneuver in three dimensions is really fucking useful
>>13530515
They use conventional Newtonian physics in space. They brief puffs to orient and propel themselves in the vacuum of space instead of your usual anime/sci-fi standard of using constant thrust with an inexhaustible supply of fuel.
>>13531270
Presumably like the boosters used in the Scopedog Turbo Custom, would the propellant for the Roundmover Pack's rockets be Polymer Ringers Solution as well?
>>13531385
I see. I imagine they don't use the rocket skates because of cost and maintenance. There is not enough data available to me for the Roundmover using PRS. However given how it been used in the show, I think it is safe to assume the it does not use PRS as propellent.
>>13531416
Thanks
New question: Given that 33 years had past since the Veela Conflict in the TV series and the civil war in Kummen between pro-Potaria and anti-Potaria forces in Phantom Arc, what happened to Niitan? How come thePhantom ClubGotho had rebuilt, which was wrecked later by theanti-Potaria forces, wasn't rebuilt there?
are the OVAs and spin offs worth watching?
>>13535042
>Worth watching tier
Prequels -Last red shoulder and roots of ambition ,
Medequel - Big battle
spinoff - mellowlink
Sequel- Shinning heresy from ep 1 to 1st 15 min of last episode
>okayish tier
Case;irvine , pailsen files
>leave chirico alone , please-tier
conclusion of shinning heresy , alone again , phantom-arc
>wtf are you doing here tier
Votom finders
>>13535646
Much appreciated anon
>>13489706
We had a thread where in quints confirmed so
It was also followed by three dubs and a 666
>>13532142
Unfortunately I can find no supplemental information regarding post-war Niitan. Basically it happened because the writers thought it was a good idea and likely not much more.
