Do any of you gentle/m/en have the unedited audio of the Diebuster cast (Nono mainly, I think?) singing Fly High? All I can find now is someone's edit of the Gunbuster song together with it.

Never even knew that was a thing
Diebuster>Gunbuster
discuss
>>14149186I legit agreed with you. Diebuster just feels more unified than Gunbuster plot and presentation-wise
>>14149192
I think the pay offs where better in Gun but Die had overall better pacing
Nope, don't have it.
>>14149186
They are fairly equal to each other.
But Diebuster get a lot of flack for being animated before 3D started being really great.
They were both pretty solid.

I hope you only posted this to spur discussion and keep the thread alive long enough for someone to help out OP. I'm honestly disappointed that the Gunbuster/Diebuster fanbase has to constantly say which work they like more than the other. If it was in a constructive manner, that'd be one thing, but every time it's just immature 'nuh uh' 'yeah huh'.
One day we'll all get over that mental hump of "they have to know which one I like more" and the board as a whole will be better for it.

That's one of the worst WEG images I've ever seen. Consider euthanization.
>>14150006
Expecting any community on 4chan to have mature, reasonable discussion is...very optimistic of you, to put it mildly. I agree with the assessment, but you're more likely to see manchildren like >>14151507
>>14151538
I wasn't even paying attention to the thread, I just saw a really shitty WEG on the front page. Diebuster is a poor successor to Gunbuster if you want my opinion though, the only thing it shared with the original is the universe. I felt it didn't capture the love Gunbuster had of sci-fi, titties, unrealistic but awesome (or awesomely unrealistic) idealism and a giant piloted robot beating the snot out of everything. That's all Gunbuster was built on and it shows. Diebuster doesn't capture the magic, it's just the anniversary homage to a great work they once made. I like that it is its own thing much more than if it had tried to piggyback any more from the original but I still didn't enjoy it so much.
So stop calling people manchildren because you're buttblasted about a shitty image you made.

Diebuster felt like a reskinned Gunbuster. It had more to it though, but what if added didn't appeal to me.
>>14151576
If you are so bummed you should now there's another school of thought about it.
You expected a copy of its faux realism, a superficial lookalike.
I think that would have been a mistake to do so.
Diebuster changed its artistic style entirely to match how it reversed all its themes (with even more attention to details than Gunbuster who didn't have a storyline originally).
Really, the only thing you can reproach to Diebuster is the graphic that don't convey as much details. Nowadays you could have CG animations with finer drawing than the best of the 90s
I would kill babies for another show as great as these two. None of the stuff Trigger or Khara did is close to them. What a bummer.

Tycho was my favorite character. Though I also really liked Jeung

Tycho really was best girl.

Quatre Van Dix getting up is probably my favorite part of the series.
>>14152888
Not him, but I think it's a little unfair to assume what peoples expectations were.
And I'll give my two cents while I'm at it, my big reproach is that while Diebuster is different from Gunbuster, that doesn't stop it from shameless Gunbuster throwbacks. I would've much rather'd they just scrap every single Buster Beam and Inazuma kick, honestly made me hate the show.
>>14152888
The 40kfag copypasta never fails to make me cringe, and I say it as someone who likes Diebuster. So much projecting.
I wonder how he failed to grasp the incredibly obvious themes and allegories of Diebuster (it's about growing up - the Topless are children playing around for points, what they're afraid most is losing their powers as they get older, even their Buster Machines come packaged like toys!), and instead arrived at muh grimdark, muh cold war, muh Spartan spirit wank.
I cried like a little bitch at the ending.
I knew what was gonna happen even before the last episode, but as soon asthey turned off all the lights in preperationI lost it.
>>14150006
You're funny.

One can only wonder why people don't strive to have mature discussions about cartoons.

You don't seem to realize that you do not contradict the copypasta, you simply didn't get the others themes the allusions were referring to.
Maybe you should just read it again and rewatch the OAV. we can't spoonfed you all the subtlety.
Mankind is learning to stop hiding behind their "toy", and later, their fear of changeas we discover the Topless are human evolving toward what the Monster were.
In Diebuster Humanity as a whole is stagnating, its refusal to change led to suppressing memory of what they did.

> Not him, but I think it's a little unfair to assume what peoples expectations were.
Point,
Still, I would imagine most of the fanbase complain if there wasn't any link.
Also : what would have "Gunbuster 2" be, if you had a say ?
For me, of course the art style would change. Not necessarily to go back to the 90s, but to go back to the faux-realism of Gunbuster. You keep all Buster-machine toyetic design but it would have felt like metal titans with the power to level planet.
And yet... clear hints of incompletion. All of them missing something(The degeneracy-reactor of course).
The OAV would still all be about characters, the stagnation of humanity, but the SF part would have been at the level of Gunbuster.
So that when we discoverswhat the "monster" truly were, we already saw hint about them being manmade.
Also, proper fanservice and less cartoonish character. Diebuster can't look serious if none of the character do.

I like this one.
