if they left akihiro on mars then they'd already be on earth
>>13763969
>Masked man.
That's it? Not even something silly like Mistah Bushido?
>>13763989
i like that they put him and mcgillis as different characters like we don't know
>>13763989
Yes, he is called just Masked man and that's it.
I get what they are trying to do with 'Gundam show with minimal combat scenes' concept, but whouldn't this extremely harm the gunpla sales?
I mean, just look at fucking HG Kimaris. It came out few days ago, and yet there's still no combat scene of it in the show.
>>13763989
>no effort put into IBO
why are you surprised?
>>13763989
Dude, G-Reco's Char clone is literally called 'Captain Mask'. I think they just gave up on giving unique names to Char clones.
>>13763989
I know a nice name for a masketta man.
>>13764003
That was actually funny there cause it was seriously used as his name, here it just seems like they are straight didn't really care especially because anyone is yet to call him masked man as an actual name (doing that may also make it work)
>>13764011
Get this hothead out of here.
>>13764012
It was also funny because another character was named "Steer" and Raraiya was "Monday" because she got on Earth on Monday.
There is pattern and Tomino was just having fun.
>>13764012
>anyone is yet to call him masked man
Fumitan calls him that in the preview voice over
>>13764026
Was it a masked man or as an actual name? Doing that depends on if it will work
>>13764012
>That was actually funny there cause it was seriously used as his name
Doesn't make it any less stupid, does it?
Oh wait, it's G-Reco, it gets a free pass for everything. I forgot.
>>13764028
>the guy with the iron mask is called iron mask
nothing new
>>13764028
Stupid name is nothing new to Gundam, you know.
>>13763972
where were you when yu-gi-oh did char better than gundam?
>>13764043
Jobelisk Foosu, pls
What are these dual weapon barbatos wield in the op
>>13764046
A CHAR'S EXISTENCE IS TO JOB!
>>13764058
Who is the Char with the least amount of SHADING?
>>13764060
Victory is the series with the least shading so it's obvious
>>13764060
Chronicle just wears a sock in his head so the animators literally just use the paint bucket tool there and call it a day
>mfw I want to pop some heads
>>13764043
>>13764058
Unless you're called Muller, that is.
>>13764055
>inb4 those are Fusion Swords
>>13763972
So out of place.
>>13764107
>the animators literally just use the paint bucket tool there
The animators wish it was this simple back then you dumb cunt.
>>13764003
It works considering he's the only one wearing a mask. It's also to highlight how Luin actually discards his facade when wearing an actual mask.
>>13764109
nagai's, okada's or the animators'?
>>13764155
please no kuruku
>>13764058
>>13764099
>>13764107
Going form that image it's very clearly Harry Ord. People tend to ignore that Turn A had extremely minimal shading as well on the characters.
>>13764058
Why is Mask at the center of this image and not Char?
>>13763969
Not!Char and McGillis even have the same pose
>>13764399
Oh so a kuntala isn't allowed to be at the centre of the image?
#kuntalalivesmater
>>13764405
Luin go back to Manny you are drunk
I'm 5 episodes behind. Are they really not on Earth yet?
>>13764506
Nah. Mika and/or Norba's Brother still has to be revealed. Then they'll stand around faffing about for another episode or two before having all their problems solved for them, and then they'll get to somewhere relatively near Earth so they can do all of that again.
>>13764517
What the fuck man. I would be fine with the pacing if the show was longer than 25 episodes. But this is ridiculous.
>>13764517
They'll have to make a layover at the ISS so that McGillis can reveal he's Kudelia's long lost brother, necessitating a two episode arc where everyone sits down and discusses it over tea and cakes. After that they'll be denied landing permission on Earth by what turns out to be Mika's long lost brother and have to enter a holding pattern for two episodes while he attempts to get permission for them to dock somewhere - only to die tragically when the nub on the pencil he's using to sign the document breaks and shoots through his eye and in to his brain.
>>13764525
That was a joke prediction about what'd happen, anon.
But no, they really aren't on Earth yet. The pacing is atrocious, yeah. How normies like this shit, I'll never know.
>>13764506
Nope and there are 3 more episodes till they get there
>>13764539
>How normies like this shit, I'll never know.
In a very simple way it makes stuff seem like it is happening even if it is badly set up and the resolution (if there really is one) is dumb and/or leads to little real development. It's only at the end that people look back and go oh wait that was stupid, you can see it happen on sites like MAL as well. A/Z S2 goes from mostly 5/5 on episode 11 to mostly 1/5 on 12. They realise that none of that shit really meant anything and you get a badly tied together ending
Also it really isn't that popular, certain sites are mostly positive but the actual poster numbers are small
>>13764382
His MS sucked in all the Lighting
>>13764570
>Nope and there are 3 more episodes till they get there
Isn't this supposed to be the MARS gundam? Yet they will have spent the majority of time in space it seems.
>>13764570
>It's only at the end that people look back and go oh wait that was stupid
I hope they do, anon. I hope they do, and look back at this like what it is: a decent start, which then swiftly turned into the franchise's Moon Moon.
>>13764622
A lot of the start being decent is what it promised to do really. Still suffers from same issues like heavy handed exposition
>>13764011
>>13764601
actually I'm looking at the press release for the initial announcement and I think there's a case of misunderstanding what a synopsis is on the part of Sunrise. What they actually did was summarize the first 2 episodes of the show, not provide a framework for what the show will be about.
Sunrise apparently still can't into English.
>>13764037
Hell, Bellri's captain tells Aida her name just sounds like made up bullshit in the first episode
>>13764806
McGillis wearing a mask isn't supposed to have a name because he didn't invent an entire persona for the masked character, nor is he reverting to a real one while wearing it - it's just a mask he has on for an episode or two while he's doing something he can't be publicly seen doing. So he doesn't need a name. He's just that masked guy. Which is fine. It doesn't need to be more than that, and is frankly a hell of a lot better reason for wearing it than quite a few Chars have: looking at you Mister Bushido, Chronicle Asher, Zeheart, Full Frontal and probably at least a few others I'm forgetting.
>>13764827
I think why people want more than that for a few reasons. one he is being pushed in the OP and just general build up of him now having a mask. This comes from him not doing much so far meaning people assume a mask means things will ramp up a bit and whatever plan he has is going into motion, him just wearing it for funsies kind of ruins that mood
>>13763972
Plague Doctor Char? Ok!
>>13764827
I like how, in order to avoid attention, Gundam characters think that the only way to hide their identity is the most garish, gaudy, and unique masks they can get their hands on.
Its like they think that if they look like they stepped out of a theme park parade, no one will notice them.
Instead of, fuck I don't know, a wig or something. Maybe some sun glasses and a false moustache. Nah, that would be too low key. Time to custom make a gold fucking mask with robotic eyelids. That way I can sneak around without drawing attention.
>>13764995
The point isn't that they won't draw attention, it's that all anyone will be looking at or remember is the mask because it's so fucking garish it'll be the only thing anyone will even be looking at. At least in this guy's case anyways. If he was wearing a low key wig and some sunglasses people would be paying a lot more attention and trying to make out who was under them. As is, the only thing people will be thinking is "holy shit that's garish".
>>13763972
HAUER?!!
>>13763972
Mister Kabuki!
>>13764037
>marbett fingerhat
Still my favorite
>>13764055
I highly suspect thats Barbatos beating a mobile worker to death with its comrade's gun
>>13770251
That's way too huge to be a MW gun. MW are tiny compared to MS, like only up to their ankles tiny.
>>13764055
Looks like pile bunkers and a giant mace.
>>13764995
He's only missing the mustache, but Quattro comes close.
>>13764995
I'm looking forward to the McGillis unmasking ceremony drama.
>>13772173
Which would happen when his masks breaks apart piloting g-tallgeese, while breaking his friendship with notGarma in a fight where graze will keep exploding for no reason.
>>13763972
SEPHIROTH
>>13763972
Baron Maximillian
>>13763972
The design is so out of place like something from a JRPG but I honestly like it
