Rumor that BONES and Tomoki Kyoda (E7 director) are going to do it. Stay tuned for official info soon.
http://yaraon-blog.com/archives/73433
Don't worry. Everything is gonna happy.
>>13514652
Dragon Magazine will release more info on the 20th.
>>13514652
>yaraon
Hmmm yeah don't tell anyone but I think they're getting Tomino to rewrite the LNs and they'll have him direct it
You heard it here first
>>13514652
That'd be one of the better case scenarios tbqh. A director with experience with mecha series and an studio that still does 2D mecha.
>>13514762
Yeah I get you, I love Kyoani and all, but I don't think there was a single memorable mecha fight in FMP
Maybe Bones will do the action better
>>13514652
>yaraon
>>13514730
Nah m8 Urobouchi and Anno are gonna collab and Nagano is going to animate all of it by himself
>>13514771
well there was Bang but that wasn't much of a fight
I'll take it, better than fucking Ordet or the other poorfag studios
>>13514762
>still does 2d mecha
this. would be too jarring to see fmp in 3d bullshit.
>>13514652
Does it come complete with a BONES ending?
>>13514931
Nope. A Gatoh ending. None of Bones shitty writers are going to touch FMP.
THANK YOU BASED BONES
KYOANUS A SHIT
>Bones
All right I can get behind that. The action will look amazing for what will be the most action packed part of the series.
>>13514674
>>13515106
Really.
Please tell me that the E7 and E7:AO director are two different people
>>13515013
Yeah, Mizushima is busy reigning a tight leash on Aikawa for Concrete Revolutio.
>>13514652
>Rumor that BONES and Tomoki Kyoda (E7 director) are going to do it.
Oh, fuck no. Good thing rumours are usually unfounded bollocks. Bones is shit.
Is The Second Raid worth watching or should I just read the LN?
>>13514652
>Yaraon
But I think it's better if Bones did it. They used 2D and they nailed 2D robot animations right. Gatoh is going to compose the show anyway so it's alright.
>>13519716
Theyaren't
>>13519716
E7:AO's problem was writing, not directing.
>>13521631
and the writer for AO was some no-name guy. It was doomed to fail.
>>13521588
I can't speak for the LN, but it's fine to watch. Leans a lot heavier on the drama than the comedy, compared to the first series.
>>13521588
Worth watching over the LN because you get to watch Gates do his thing.
Magazine scan came out.
IT'S FUCKING NOTHING. All it says is more info next year. Rumor was nothing more than a rumor and now we stay in the dark a while longer.
>>13521724
>>13521726
Holy shit. Shikidouji's Sousuke looks like a generic harem protagonist faggot.
>>13521757
Well, at least Bonta-kun looks right.
>>13521639
But that's Sho Aikawa right? He's somehow notorious but his recent works are seriously less than spectacular to be honest family.
>>13521924
Aikawa has to be one of the most varied writers in terms of quality I've ever seen.
>>13521726
>those teeth
Reminds me of Bubblegum Crisis.
>>13521924
AO's script was written by several guy (Sho Aikawa has the most part though, he wrote 15 episodes). But the Script Composition guy is a total no-name. He has no credit for other anime besides AO in ANN. Yeah, sure they might've missed one or two but if they missed it then it must've been a very minor position.
>>13521757
These are buzzwords clustered together, but goddamn, you're totally right.
This art is seriously shit.
I never thought I'd say this, but praise Gonzo for TOTALLY redesigning the characters.
>>13521711
>Gates do his thing.
He's such a glorious asshole.
>>13521711
>>13525177
>His VA
The Yazan of Kyoanus!
>>13525177
I wonder what hair products they use on the Codarls to keep that lovely hair silky smooth.
>>13521726
Is that Teletha and Kaname because they look goddamn adorable
What happened
>>13521726
>Moeshit designs
The fucking price to get a new season? Better stay dead.
>>13525253
>Shikidouji designs = anime designs
>>13522974
Imagine if FMP was adapted by Kyoani from the start.
>>13525177
To be fair, that might have been the one time he abused that dude accidentally. Though given the history, it being intentional is quite plausible.
But yes, he is a glorious asshole.
>>13526768
He fapped to a cat goddammit.
>>13526833
>Implying a cat isn't fine too.
Good thing this isn't a Tsukihime thread or you'd have been chased out already.
>>13526833
>>13526941
I figure Gates is just omnisexual.
Hell fuck or fap to anything, living or not.
>>13526833
And a squirrel too.
Arbalest>Laevashit
Would it be a bad idea to buy Another Century's Episode R just so I can play as Arm Slaves?
>>13528460
Why does the Koto kit look so bad? I love the original art and I can't find anything wrong with it, yet I find myself reeling whenever I see the kit.
>>13528759
That's... the metal build. But yeah, the proportions seems off. I find the Robot Damashii to be the best in that regard.
>>13528897
The proportions seems fine, probably the angle of the photo that made it look off.
>>13529759
The commander antenna Gernsback a best
Toonami when
I wouldn't mind that FMP fill the Gundam/mecha void myself
>>13528652
Yes. Just pirate it.
>>13525206
L'Orel. Because they're worth it.
>>13528652
I always thought SRW J did that a little better. You can use the sub in some missions too.
>>13521726
They remind me of Growlanser characters for some reason.
>>13521726
Don't tell me they'll look like that in the anime. It looks awful.
>>13525177
I don't remember this scene.
>>13531867
It's when the Codarls are deploying in Hong Kong near the end,to take down the rogue Codarl and Mithril. Shortly before Souske finally boards the Arbalest and wrecks their shit.
>>13522974
that is the first time iv ever seen someone honestly prazing Gonzo
>>13525835
they would probably would have been closer to the original art
>>13532373
I really liked Samurai 7, and S1 of FMP was decent imo
Weren't we getting new info on the 20th?
I just forgot about FMP for a few days
>>13534984
No new substantial info.
>>13531852
Of course it won't look like that. They'll bring back the anime char designer and keep the same designs. Maybe fine tune them a bit since it's been 10 years but I'm not expecting any drastic changes like fucking Digimon or something.
>>13521726
Oh I am laffin
I hope you guys get btfo with CGshit too
>>13536813
Those aren't the anime's designs. It's Shikidouji (FMP's LN artist) using her most recent artstyle.
So, who is hype for the return of best girl?
>>13536765
Oh, thank god. I was really concerned that they would be moeblobs.
>>13536813
What's wrong with CG? This isn't 1998 you know.
>>13536942
Nothing when it's done well, a lot when it's Satelite.
>>13536952
Satelight isn't too bad.
>>13536928
That's not Tessa though.
>>13537314
Yeah Symphogear had lazy CG cars, I'll give you that.
I wouldn't use it as an example because I didn't notice much CG aside from like two scenes in three seasons?
>>13538313
Symphogear is the exact reason why Satelight should've just focus on improving their 3DCG.
>tfw old Gonzo is dead
>>13538397
I don't follow?
>>13538403
I'm not the guy who said Satelight has shit 3DCG. In fact, that's the only thing they got right because their 2D animation is Toei-tier.
>>13536928
Reminder she married and divorced Kurtz several times, and only managed one daughter.
Reminder that Kurtz still loves them both, and proceeded to fuck up the bastards that injured his daughter.
>>13538406
>In fact, that's the only thing they got right
Guess you haven't seen LOGOS or the trailer to Macross Delta
>>13538618
You mean the trailer for a show that won't be airing for another year? The trailer for Frontier had poor CG and they ended up improving it too.
>>13538618
Delta's CG is better than Frontier. Logos doesn't count.
>>13538667
Aquarion having shitty CGI is practically a tradition.
>>13538628
>You mean the trailer for a show that won't be airing for another year?
....its airing in Dececmber
>The trailer for Frontier had poor CG and they ended up improving it too.
No it didn't. It looked exactly the same.
>>13538667
Must be tough being blind
>>13538680
EVOL had good CG.
>>13539018
Because they cooperated with 8bit on EVOL. LOGOS is just a low-budget show overall.
>>13539018
>....its airing in Dececmber
Except it's not. They're airing a preview episode on the 31st but they still haven't given an actual airing date for the anime.
>>13539047
>Except it's not.
>one hour premiere on New Years Day
Are you done being stupid?
>>13539130
http://www.macrossworld.com/macross-delta-first-details-announced/
>A TV Special will air on December 31st which will apparently include an almost complete first episode. The official start date of the new tv series has yet to be announced.
>>13539018
>>13539042
Yeah, it still has a bit too much "pop" for my taste, but Evol's CG was mostly fine.
Thinking about rewatching it. Best bd release?
>>13539137
>A TV Special will air on December 31st which will apparently include an almost complete first episode.
>the first episode
Again are you pretending to be stupid?
>>13539765
you need to stop bro.
BONES is doing it? Are you guys prepared for another disjointed and borderline incoherent ending?
>>13540290
>Are you guys prepared for another disjointed and borderline incoherent ending?
So it'll be a faithful adaptation afterall
>>13540296
kek.
FMPfags are one of my least favorite fanbases on /m/ or /a/
Not as bad as Patlaborfags though.
>>13521588
Both are worth. The LN was more to the point, while the anime adds some extra arcs and a villain (Gates). And the twins go from murderous brothers to murderous lesbian sisters.
>>13521726
WHAT DID THEY DO TO THEIR FACES
>>13541762
It's just art made by the magazine's artist. Calm down you autistic sperg.
>>13540290
>BONES is doing it? Are you guys prepared for another disjointed and borderline incoherent ending?
The FMP ending makes perfect sense... But it just might have explained too much.
>>13540290
FMA ends the same way as the manga though
>>13543097
Wrong.
>>13543776
Brotherhood does.
Why does every action game with the Arbalest portray it's shot cannon like it's a shotgun? The Arbalest barely has any range weapons as it is and they give it a crappy shotgun.
I keep hearing that the rest of the LN/story post-TSR is pretty shit, is that true?
>>13546015
>implying it isn't already shit before that.
>>13546042
I liked it pretty much solely for the characters, probably why I enjoyed the Tessa OVA more than most of the actual series
are the characters atleast still fun?
>>13546015
/m/ is just going to tell you that everything is shit now. The rest of the story is perfectly fine. If you liked it up until that pint you'll probably like the rest.
>>13547499
/m/ hates everything the newer it is.
>>13546056
Tessa becomes edgier and Kaname gets possessed or some shit
If you like the characters as they are right now and just want slice-of-life type stuff then you'll probably be disappointed
>>13546015
No it gets much better. The only thing is that it's all seriousness and no fun and games from here on out, but in return for less laughs you get god-tier action and great character development.
best
>>13549672
Well, the cruise ship arc hasn't been animated yet, and that's got some pretty good comedy in it. But aside from that arc, you're right. It's all serious from here on in.
Haven't watched TSR yet, why does the Arbalest have a different paint scheme?
>>13552213
Not only the paint scheme. The Arbalest in TSR has been totally re-designed out-universe. The M9s got the same treatment too.
>>13552238
That's a huge improvement.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_z4BUoDewBE
Doesn't look very fun...
>>13538287
That's true... because he didn't say worst girl...
>>13536928
But that's not Nami!
>>13552238
Ah, so that's why that shitty navvy/light blue became the color scheme on the damashiis. I like the old one better.
>>13555393
But the old one is drab and boring.

No?
Why is everyone trying to rape Chidori in Fumoffu? Almost every episode has her nearly being assaulted or some guy making creepy comments about her.
>>13566325
?
Not too picky on the studio so long as it isn't one that's horrible with 2d mechs but I'll rage if the director isn't Yamakan or Takemoto.
>>13536928
>mfw my waifu is dead
T-T
Some new scans from the latest Dragon Magazine that weren't posted before
>>13574535
And this one has info on all the upcoming merchandise and how to catch up with the story, I think.
>tfw Gauron comes back as the villain of the piece because he's survived yet another attempt on his life.
>>13575490
But he's dead for good this time, no way he'll come back. He doesn't come back in the novels either.
>>13575490
Unforunately, Gauron is gone and they struggle to get a villain to fill his shoes. But its okay since BOMF is great enough without him, and then afterwards they get Big Boss to take his place
>>13516694
>>13515106
I actuallylikedkyoani up to about chuu2, but even I think fucking Gonzo did a better job with FMP than them in spite of the shitty animation.
>>13521588
Shitty drama crap, and KyoAni blows at making action shows. Avoid it.
>>13581252
How does it feel to be so wrong?
>>13572196
Um, who's that again?
>>13583847
Seina. Big sis to the the kid who piloted the first Behemoth, piloted the grey Savage that recaptured the kid, and ended up snagging Kalinin too.
Then did little but chat with Kalinin and then died.
>>13584126
Oh, right.
I vaguely remember that.
Behemoth was a cool (if utterly stupid) concept, of a big ass mecha that needed plot device powers just to keep from collapsing unto itself, but I remember the arc itself was kind of a drag.Also, why waifu her of all people?
>>13584134
Not that guy, and not into waifu, but she's just cute.
She lives in Z3.
And remember that she wasn't actually his sister.
>>13572196
FMP S1 constantly introduced potentially interesting characters only to kill them off before actually doing anything with them.
>>13584134
She's cute, manipulative and strong literally GOAT.
>>13587221
>>13587241
You can't hide your shame anon
>>13587241
She's also worthless and poorly written
>>13587251
she did this to me T-T
>>13587259
GTFO
She is beautiful and that it is all that matters.
>>13586170
Yeah that bugged me too
>oh hey it's someone who knows Sousuke back from his child soldier days, I guess he'll be a rival-type figure to Sousuke and will add another aspect to the Gauron plot and so on
>oh okay nevermind...
>>13587274
Well, that was a filler arc, so it's not like anybody introduced there could have any long term prospects anyway.
>>13587330
It didn't seem like a filler arc until after it ended though, what with it going into Sousuke's background and all
