>Mobile Suit Gundam Unicorn
Enjoyed it a quite a bit

>Mazinkaiser SKL
Too trashy, even if it was on purpose. Just not my kind of thing.

>Mobile Suit Gundam Age
Only about 12 episodes into it so far, but I like it

>Infinite Stratos
Absolutely shit, I generally hate harem shows so I have no idea why I let my friend pressure me into watching this steaming piece of shit

>Majestic Prince
Not particularly bad, the CG was good and the characters were quite nice and fun to watch, but I wasn't a fan of the fight choreography and the overall plot

>Valvrave
Fun to watch, doesn't stand out as being extremely bad, but definitely not good either. Rather forgettable now that I think about it.

>GitS: Arise
Not as bad as people say it is, I just watched it keeping in mind that it is just an alternative take on the GitS universe, and that I should treat and watch it for what it is, without comparing it to SAC or the Oshii movies.

>Buddy Complex
Not bad, but I watched it along with Valvrave so it didn't nearly leave as much of an impact that it could have. I really want to say it's good, but I can't because nothing of note comes to mind expect the OVA endings, but I can't really say it was bad because there was nothing that was particularly bad about it.

>Aldnoah.Zero
Honestly, when I marathoned it by myself without really knowing why I was suppose to think it's shit, I enjoyed it. The music was good, the visuals were good, and while I wasn't really invested in the characters or story they didn't come off to me as bad

>G-Reco
Probably my favourite of the lot, I watched it in a few days this september after the BDs were fully done, and despite having read about all its flaws on /m/ and /a/, I loved it. I genuinely tried looking for the "nonsensical","incomprehensible" and "confusing" parts in it, but I couldn't find it. Visually beautiful, great world, good story even if it wasn't completely unique in the Gundam franchise.

1/2

>>13495007

2/2

>A/Z 2
Didn't enjoy it quite as much as the first one, actually didn't like it. It seemed to build up to something in the beginning but in the end the climax never came and it just fizzled out. Everything seemed so inconsequential and pointless.

>Gundam: The Origin
Not too keen on the CG, but I like the insight we're getting into Char's past, even if it is basically just non-canon fanfiction like Unicorn.

>Mobile Suit Gundam: Iron-Blooded Orphans
Eh, enjoyable at times but it feels like I'm on a rollercoaster that initially looks like it's going to be a wild ride, but turns out to be incredibly boring.

>Comet Lucifer
I don't mind retard moe, so I enjoyed Felia as a loli, and the setting combined with the soundtrack makes it quite comfy. The CG for the most part is great though.
>>
>>13494938

Great picture. Proper mecha damage. Not bad design. Overall bland.

>Heroman
Fun as hell. Saturday morning cartoon in the best possible way.

>Mazinkaiser SKL
Enjoyable watch. Essentially a metal album cover as an anime.

>Break Blade
Well animated, solid mecha design, writing that started strong but petered out in the last movie. I liked it.

>Boukoku no Akito
I watched the first movie/ep and was completely bored by it. Felt like it missed the theatrical, hammy nature of Geass that made that show so much fun to watch. Snazzy OST, though.

>Nobunga the Fool
I started the first two eps, was interested, but still haven't got around to finishing it. Maybe during next season.

>G-Reco
I started it, saw the first three eps, had to drop it to focus on schoolwork. I liked what I saw.

>IBO
I'm enjoying it. It's flawed, but the fight scenes are solid enough and the OST is really good.

>Heavy Object
Terrible series when it's trying to be serious. The Objects are boring and uninteresting to watch in combat. The moments of seriousness leads to me Frodoing the show's logic.

Now when it's a /comedy/? It's actually pretty damn entertaining. I can also think of at least of two reasons to watch.

>Comet Lucifer
Comfy show of the season. I didn't mind loli Felia at all. Wish it got a second cour, though, to fix its pacing issues.

>Heroman
Slow start, but I really liked it starting with the second arc.
>Mazinkaiser SKL
Simple, straightforward, enjoyable action. I'll forever be butthurt about Scarlett, though.
>Star Driver
Seemed cool at first, but there was like one minute of mecha action per episode and the MC just one shot everything. I dropped it when the fish girl left.
>Mobil Suit Gundam Age
Dropped it during part 3. Could have dropped it much earlier actually, I pushed myself through most of what I did watch.
>Rinne no Lagrange
I really liked this actually. Don't even think the second season was as bad as people say, just the focus on Yurikano and the big bros was a bit annoying.
>Majestic Prince
Loved it and want more.
>Kakumeiki Valvrave
Dropped at episode 2.
>Gundam Build Fighters
Mostly great aside from the pointless Arian shit.
>Suisei no Gargantia
Pretty interesting, but kinda weird it shifts focus near the end.
>Captain Earth
I liked this enough to watch until the end, but it had tons of wasted potential. It could have been really great with a few adjustments.
>Gundam G no Reconguista
Watched about half of it until I realized I didn't really about anything that was going on.
>Gundam Build Fighters Try
A few good moments but mostly disappointing.
>Cross Ange
I lost interest when the dimension hopping shit took over. They should have stuck with the initial women's prison setting and made a simple story with that.

I didn't see anything boring with it, nor that wasn't already acceptable in an introduction episode.

And this is the problem with kids today.

Unicorn is a sad reason for an anime. It's drowned in its own importance.

The animation is great, no doubt, but everything else about it feels like pseudo intellectual masturbatory bullcrap that is often mistaken for good writing.
>>

I heard it picked up after the first ep. I think it might be that I went in with expectations of another clusterfuck of flamboyance, which it wasn't.

I should watch it when the last ep/movie comes out.

There you have it.

Not everything needs to be "muh plot" or the second coming of of Hitchcock. There's so much more to film/television etc. I've seen some terrible movies that have been carried by the sheer talent of their actors.

Not to say that there's anything wrong with putting plot on a pedestal, but I dunno, seems like a waste.

>>13496618
Yeah. It was really nice.
I really enjoyed the way they cut a lot of the sequences to drive the momentum from scene to scene. The fact that not everything was told, and even that a few things weren't show was really unexpected given how hand-holdy a lot of things tend to be.

I also liked Arise Motoko's attitude/personality a whole damn lot. The character design...eh, but I can get past that because of the whole body swapping. Her and Batou's dynamic was excellent.

Art direction was really smart too.

>>13496624
>Knights of Sidonia
I just finished it a few hours ago. It's not my favorite, but I really enjoyed how they told the story. It really packed a lot of content for just 24 episodes. Fights could've used infinitely less shaky cam.
The CG was really choppy at times. The characters had a tendency to move irregularly.

As for the fights, I thought they were good, but the animation really brought everything a notch down. However, when they did their slo-mo shots it looked phenomenal. I think if the overall pace of the fights was slower it'd be a lot better. I get the Gauna are supposed to be "teleports behind you" fast to ad to the creepiness, but I think they could've relied less on that and still showed off the incredible bursts of speed every once and a while. If everything starts as lazer pinball, when you start to ramp up the powerlevels, it becomes less impressive.

Anyone have that one webm of Benisuzume attempting to kill En? It's a perfect example of what I'm trin to say.

I really liked the "world" though. Very good stuff there.
>>
>>13496668

I always found the design thing to be a very petty complaint from the start. The very definition of a NOT MU argument.

Defiantly liked her personality. The Major's at her best when she has a personal belief driving her.

Hell and I gotta respect any movie that gives Borma shit to do. He was great in a few of the actions scenes.
>>
>>13496696
No, I agree. I just think she looks a little not sexy enough which was unfair to her stupid, sexy personality.

I'm probably gonna get shat on, but I preferred the Logicomas to the Tachikomas. They weren't nearly as annoying, but they were still pretty annoying.

>How did the movie do in theaters?

According to Wikipedia it seems like it was well received.

As for seeing more. Well Im of two minds of that. On the one hand I WOULD like to see the world explored more. Some of the stuff they did with prosthesis is fascinating and terrifying (the fetus cyborg)

but at the same time I don't thing GITS in general can really carry a huge amount of content. At least not with Section 9.

The original Manga was, what, ONE volume? Then a couple of movies (and people only really seemed to like the first one)

I wouldn't want them to pull a SAC because while I did very much like parts of it, I always felt it was a drag in a lot of places and the writing staff really wasn't able to control their Major boner. Too much always fell back to her and how awesome she was and while that's fine for a short series you really should expand the characters if you're gonna ask 52 episodes out of us. That Saito episode was awful. Poor Borma got fucking nothing and I don't even remember if they did anything with Ishikawa.

SAC was good when shit was happening but GITS really needs to have something to say. Because at it's best it's very good but at it's worst it can be so super boring.

>>13496737
>That Saito episode was awful
I think I've talked about GitS with you before.
I think it's actually a pretty damn good episode, even though sniper bro does get shafted. He still was metal as fuck though.
I do agree about the side characters though.

I felt that the ARISE cases were akin to chunks of the complex episodes from S.A.C. and that worked really well for me. (Actually I just looked and there are 12 Laughing Man Episodes in s1) So pretty much the equivalent of 10 episodes+movie since all of them were linked via Fire-Starter.
I really loved that they never outright stated that Kurutsu developed it after she used it on Motoko when the Major quit the army. I know they told you at the end of the 2nd case iirc, but usually shit like that would be repeated over and over again, especially considering you just /know/ the Major /knows/ after she develops her pseudo antidote.

I didn't find S.A.C all that boring ever, but I've been a sucker for police procedurals ever since I was a kid, and police procedurals with futuretech are really my tempo.

I have repeated myself numerous times, yes.

Im not against the occasional breather episode to pace out the series and I like a slower pace fine, mind you. My issue was just how little anyone not named Motoko got to do.

The Pazu episode I thought was great. It gave us some quiet time away from the main plot and some insight into one of the other characters.

I just really wish we got more of that. Give Ishikawa and Borma more screen time. Give Saito a real episode. Batou got off pretty well and id be lying if I said I didn't love it whenever that big lug was on screen. I just feel like there was a lot of wasted potential wasted on major wank. And it hurt her a bit too If Im being honest.

Watched TV

>Aquarion EVOL
I liked it more than I did Sousei. It had some incredibly pretty art direction. Those purples.
>Code Geass: Boukoku no Akito
Diggin it so far, but it seems to lack a concise vision. I'll chalk that up to the snail's pace release schedule.
>>2013
>Majestic Prince
Comfy. Fights were well animated, but they needed better framing.

Bad, but not boring. Incredibly forgettable.

Boring and forgettable

It meandered a little bit too much, but I enjoyed itoverall
>Buddy Complex
Not bad, but not good. Mechs were boring, but the fights were entertaining.
>Break Blade (TV)
Great mecha action. The rest was forgettable, and that's fine.
>Knights of Sidonia
Pretty solid. Really enjoyed some of the fights. Would've benefited immensely from hand drawn animation outside of the mechs.

Ranges from decent to bad.

fuck you kawamori. either way, those episodes fit the tarot real well (the actual meaning of them and not what da Vinci is talking about most of the time) and that's the only dynamic i like in it.

2010
Mazinkaiser SKL
I like Equilibrium, I like this, I like attempting to pronounce SKL.

2011
Mobile Suit Gundam Age
I watched the first episode and I enjoyed it. I'll watch the rest some day.

IS <Infinite Stratos>
As far as harem garbage LN trash cliche bullshit goes, it was ok?

2012
Rinne no Lagrange
I watched the first half, liked the soundtrack. Uninteresting plot.

2013
Majestic Prince
I watched like half of this, pretty enjoyable, fun action, same face. Probably watch the rest some time later.

Kakumeiki Valvrave
Watched the first half, was a big enough train wreck to keep me entertained, wasn't good enough to be good.

Suisei no Gargantia
Watched half of it, kind of boring story with obvious progression. Reminds of Blue Submarine though which is alright by me.

Infinite Stratos II
I watched like an episode, same trash, more girls.

2014
Captain Earth
Watched a few episodes, someone post the webm of the robot being put together in space for please. Some cool stuff, boring characters from what I could tell, I'll probably watch the rest some day.

Knights of Sidonia
I don't know if I liked it, but that stupid theme song grew on me.

Aldnoah.Zero
It's JoJo, except with mechs! Oh wait no it isn't, our main character is smarter than every person in the universe and thus the problems are immediately solved within a few minutes of an episode after episode 3.

Gundam G no Reconguista
It was fine. Some cool sequences. People talk more like human beings than in Brain Powerd (somewhat).

Shirogane no Ishi: Argevollen
I watched a few episodes until they got back to HQ or whatever. It was fun, maybe I'll check out some more later.

2015
Aldnoah.Zero 2
Oh yeah, did I mention Slain is the main character now and you're supposed to care for some reason?

Heavy Object
Fucking garbage even by the Index guy's standards. Also Australia is all desert. CGI waves were a first for me, didn't look terrible I thought.
The pacing is fucked.
Hope it gets more seasons.

>Mobile Suit Gundam Unicorn
Not watched.

>Heroman
Underrated gem in my opinion. Shame it flopped so no sequel.

>Mazinkaiser skl
I greatly enjoy "Heavy metal album covers, the mecha show". Needed more nudity to be a true 80s esque OVA though.

>Star Driver
Wasted potential.

>Break Blade
Solid show

>Age
haven't watched.

>Sacred Seven
Mediocre

>IS
Generic harem show but I had fun with it due to the fights and unintentional humor from Houki being a psychologically damaged mess.

>Evol
Great first half undermined by the second half being wacky garbage.

>rinne no Lagrange
Sadly mediocre, despite the promise of the first season.

>AO
Dropped

>Muv Luv Total Eclipse
Didn't watch

>Code Geass
Didn't watch.

>Majestic Prince
Fun show, very enjoyable.

Valvrave[/valvrave]
Woo boy. No matter what I say, I'm going to get spammed over it. Oh well. The producers said they wanted to create a fun show that is best watched live and discussed rather than marathoned. Fun is subjective, but they certainly succeeded in the latter. It was a disposable mecha show, watch once, shit post on image boards, and then discard. Frankly it's more notable for the trolling than anything. It's this show were the trolls moved on from trying to force mecha girls off the board, to an actual mecha show. They were further emboldened by their success and moved onto driving an entire gundam show off of the board, and /m/ has been damaged ever since.

>Build Fighters
Fun show

>GITS arise
Haven't watched.

>Gargantia
I was disappointed with it, but it's an okay show.

>IS 2
dropped.

>Galilei Donna
Not watched.

>Nobunga the fool
Dropped. It was pretty boring.

>Captain Earth
I'm in the minority, but I really liked it. Felt it was the antithesis of Star Driver. The salty dog stuff was a failure, but all in all I enjoyed it.

>Dai Shogun
You'll notice I've tried to avoid calling shows bad. Keep in that in mind when I say this show is bad.
>>
>>13506457
how did I fuck up those spoilers? Oh well.

>Daimidaler
The penguins carried this show when the dirty jokes failed.

>M3
Haven't watched.

>Buddy Complex
Felt like a 90s mecha show. Loved it despite the pacing issued.

>Break blade tv
I liked it

>Sidonia
Like the manga, didn't watch TV due the cgi

>Aldnoah Zero
Dropped.

>G-reco
didn't watch, but I hate how the trolls basically won with this show.

>Try
Didn't get a chance to watch.

>Cross Ange
Dropped

>Argevollen
I liked it. It felt old school to me, and I liked how the main mech was handled.

>Fafner exodus
I'll have to marathon it. I'm bad with kill them all shows, so I didn't dare live watch.

>the origin
didn't watch

>yatterman
didn't watch

>Logos
Slow, but good MOTW show

>IBO
Didn't watch

>Heavy object
Not watching yet

>Comet lucifer
I think the show is trying to be like old 90s adventure shows, but failing. Another show plagued by pacing issues. Love the designs and characters though.

I don't care about muh plot either, but it was clearly distracting in Unicorn.

>>13494938
Since i was a newfag and actually started watching older mecha fist i haven't seen much from the list, but here goes:

>Unicorn
Despite the gayest sounding name for a mecha, having no prior knowledge other than that it comes after CCA, i was pleasantly surprised, it was pretty goddamn good.
>Muv-luv
Why even ask? It was bad.
>Gargantia
It was ok.
>Knights of Sidonia
Pretty good.
>A/Z and A/Z 2
I have no words, scratch that, i have a pasta on how shit it is.
>Gundam the Origin
Like it so far, the CG is jarring tho.

Aquarion, Fafner are on my Eva clone list which i'll probably get around to sometime next year.

I don't know if i should check out IBO?
>>
>>13494938
Liked Buddy Complex, enjoying IBO.
