>>
>>14196112
We may as well. Just finished Exkaiser myself.

It was okay, but I'm glad Brave went off and did its own thing afterwards. Staying close to its Transformers roots as it did in Exkaiser would have made it a much more boring series.
>>
>>14196178
did Exkaiser have any subs? cant find one so far

Fighbird's design still appear rather generic but it definitely tries to create Yuusha's own identity by this time which will only take shape when Da Garn airing

I bet Katori would make a good bro with Gai
>>
>>14196203
Exkaiser's subs are all up on youtube, most of them done by Silver Castle. No torrents or anything, so you'll have to make do with that for now.

Fighbird's design actually isn't all that generic for a Brave because it's both very clean and has little in the way of animal thematics. Also, its wings are on the chest rather than the back, and that's fairly unusual as well. The sword and shoulder cannons are expected though, and the chestpiece makes it look like it's ripping off Tryder G7. Either way, I like it.

>>14196243
Fighbird is ok but Thunder Baron and Guardion still feels like a mecha from Machine Robo and Transformer

It was not that bad, Katori is the saving grace of the series, GGG would be different if if Fighbird never start with real Adult protagonist

on the sidenote, the main villain mecha design Draias look much cooler than Fighbird imo. could have easily passed off as protagonist mech.

I hope Fighbird series would get a SRC especially Draias since mightgaine and j-decker got one.

I remember that when I watched J-Decker with a friend, he was baffled by Yuuta's choice for summerwear, so it'd be no wonder why Yuuta would seemingly borrow clothes from his sisters.

In any case, this rumor amuses me, since Gosaurer (also a Sunrise show, but promoting Tomy toys and airing one year before J-Decker) had no problem featuring a girl as one of the main pilots.

Generally speaking, he mainly only animated the earlier OPs and some small bits of animation here and there (like the explosion that got recycled constantly without his acknowledgement). His Studio G-1 Neo (having and his eventual ex-wife Atsuko Ishida (responsible for Might Gaine and J-Decker's character designs) did most of the animation work, with the last couple of series being done by their own understudies.

I really like Da Garn for not having one specific finishing move it ends every episode with.

>>
>>14205487
The original Mazinger Z had the same thing. It tended to get kills with Breast Fire and Rust Hurricane, but sometimes it managed kills with Missile Punch, Rocket Punch, and most of its moves. Getter Robo was sort of the same.

Of course, both of those were pre-Great Mazinger, so that makes sense.

Well, point taken. At least the other two balanced that out.

>>14205490

Just finished Goldran.

So is Goldran and co. the strongest team?

Their miracle mode Miracle Galactic buster had a minute long beam clash with a planet-busting weapon that could obliterate a planet with just a burst. And they won in the end.

And that's not even their final power up.

They kinda cheaped out on the final battle but it was fun anyway, and touching too.
>>
>>14206683
If you want to discuss power levels, I think the order is
GGGG with Goldion Crusher>Great Da Garn GX with Power of Legend>Goldran team in miracle mode>Dag Base (?)>Joint Dragon Fire>Great Fighbird (in Gatherway Blaster formation?)>Fire J-Decker Max Cannon> Great Exkaiser

I haven't seen it all, so I'm not 100% on this and no one knows about Baan Gaan.

>>14206761
I don't think the fake sun form Pisa Sol was as big as a planet. At its full size you could still see the corners that used to make up the ships, which makes me assume it was more like a large city size at best. It also got through that last ES window.

Just based on scale alone I doubt that Goldion Crusher is stronger than the Miracle Galactic Buster. And we didn't even see them use Galactic Buster while using Golden Power, which seemed like a massive power-up. They stopped a missile that flew to a completely different galaxy in what must have been a few days if not less. What was Great Da Garn GX's best feat? It's been a while since I've seen it.

Obari was hired to do the OPs for the first 4 Brave shows. Exkaiser, Fighbird, Da-Garn and Might Gaine. IIRC he also had some role in the pre-production stage where he helped with some of storyboards and style planning.

On Exkaiser and Fighbird, he was also incharge of lots of the stock footage. Exkaiser he did all the combinations for Exkaiser, same for Fighbird. On Fighbird Obari was also chief mecha animator. So he also animated the finishers and worked on various episodes.

On Da-Garn, one of Obari's apprentice, Hirotoshi Takaya took over as chief mecha animator. On Might Gaine and J-Decker, Obari's good friend Masahiro Yamane took over as chief mecha animator(his style was almot 1:! Obari style). On Goldran it was Takaya again IIRC. IDK Dagwon but GaoGaiGar had Nakatani Seiichi and Takuya & Tatsuya Suzuki - both of whom were also Obari inspired animators.

Might Gainer & J-Decker had heavy involvement of many of Obari's G1 Studio members. Atsuko Ishida and Masahiro Yamane were members too.

While his own personal involvement lessened as the shows went on, his friends and students carried on his style and evolved from him. It's hard to talk about the Yuusha series style and look without talking about Obari because a lot of his essence was thrown into the shows.

For me, not even Katori saved the show. It was so damn repetitive, every episode exactly the same. The moment I saw the background of the stock footage go from a wasteland with thunder and lightning to generic multi-colored lights, just so they could use the finisher in space, is when I lost all hope.

I agree on Draias though. Those episodes where he took matters in his own hands were the best.

On the other hand, it was a lot bigger than the Goldion Crusher, which was at least the size of Earth's moon. So maybe.

If by that, you mean the main character falling from the sky, then I wouldn't say so.

>>
>>14209000
In fairness, one can possibly blame Takara for the rushed ending. Apparently, they hated the idea of Brave being something other than a comedic, plotless toy commercial, so they tried to mettle with it in various ways (resulting in Takamatsu's staffs giving the middle finger to them, especially in Might Gaine's endgame arc). At least they stopped bothering by Dagwon and GGG.
>>
>>14209027
Well in all three the inhuman partner ends up sacrificing their life force or w/e in the final battle and they use the last of their energy to safely send the MC home after some last touching words about carrying on or something.

Da Garn's ending really got to me. Not just Da Garn's last moments before going to sleep. The sentiment of returning to the home that they fought to protect was surprisingly strong.

Regardless of whether or not the fake sun was as big as a planet, the aftershocks from the giant explosion were felt many light years away, turning Earth into absolute ruin. That's a lot more collateral than planetary explosions. Now let me say that GGGG has the caveat of not seemingly being all that powerful on its own. Without the Goldion Crusher, it seems no more powerful than full-powered Deus Machina Demonbane at best.

All the Golden Miracle power to seemed to grant the Goldran team was the ability to V-MAX.

Meanwhile, Great Da Garn GX actually did blow up a planet. Furthermore, he seemed to blow it up with his mere existence. He fired a few scattered GX Buster shots, but most of the destruction seemed to come from him unleashing all the energy of the Power of Legend.
>>
>>14209417
I thought Earth was fucked because the Sol Masters were trying to destroy it with the spatial contraction phenomena, it's why GGG went over there to stop them. The space station orbiting Earth was shown to be fine at the end and basically untouched. You'd think it'd be the first to be destroyed if a wave of energy traveled to Earth from the Trinary universe. Also, it was connected by a wormhole between Mars and Jupiter IIRC, so it wasn't actually light years away.

>All the Golden Miracle power to seemed to grant the Goldran team was the ability to V-MAX.
The way the ruler of Legendra described it it just seemed like a massive power up in general. Something about Golden Power being the power of the Braves' and humans' hearts connecting. Even without the Golden Power their Miracle Galactica Buster was on par with a planet-busting weapon.

>Meanwhile, Great Da Garn GX actually did blow up a planet. Furthermore, he seemed to blow it up with his mere existence. He fired a few scattered GX Buster shots, but most of the destruction seemed to come from him unleashing all the energy of the Power of Legend.
Feat-wise I'd count countering a proven planet-buster at least as good as blowing up a planet itself. And in a sustained beam clash too.

>>14207589
I believe Obari did the animation re-designs for the main mecha after Okawara designed them initially. I could be wrong, but they definitely have that flair to them.

I know he did at least one drawing in those J-Decker references I have, and I think he was also behind Deckerd's action pose examples from said references.

I don't know about Overlord, but I've seen Victory, and I know that there was never any point where you got the idea that Star Saber wasn't a match for Deszaras. He shows up on the first episode, and Star Saber defeats him soundly. Deszaras puts up good fights, and even kicks Star Saber around a few times, but you never really get the idea that he's this gigantic roadblock, just "oh, they'll get him someday!" Hell, Liokaiser's first appearance needed God Ginrai to help Star Saber out.

Dinogeist on the other hand, finally appears several episodes in, and up until the episode where Great Exkaiser appears, spends those episodes beating the crap out of Exkaiser.

One episode, he completely no-sells Thunder Arrow and Exkaiser is saved by the typical dues ex machina and the episode right after that, he catches it with one hand and Exkaiser gets saved by the dues ex machina again It's when Great Exkaiser appears that he finally becomes Dinogeist's equal/superior.
>>
>>14220596
Dino Geist's power seemed inconsistent. He may have been able to beat King Exkaiser/Dragon Kaiser, put it was always pyrric. Exkaiser always managed to put up enough of a fight in order to get Dino Geist to withdraw. He just didn't get any straight up wins until he became Great Exkaiser. And part of this was Exkaiser being dumb. You never really saw Exkaiser becoming King Exkaiser and using Dragon Jet in its drone form outside of like one episode.

Yatabe knows how to build up ultimate villains, that's for sure.

That much is true, the episodes rarely ended with the villains walking off with anything unless it was useless, but you get the idea that Dinogeist is more than a match for the whole crew until Great Exkaiser appears.

>King Loader was broken until Great Exkaiser, no?
I know what you're talking about, but not once did they mention it being in need of repairs, repairs being in progress or anything of the sort. It just gets damaged in one episode, Exkaiser uses the Dragon Jet instead, and then he summons King Loader again when it's time to become Great Exkaiser with no mention of what's been going on with it in the meantime.

>And Dragon isn't as powerful as Dragon Kaiser, right?
King Exkaiser and the Dragon drone working separately were shown to put up a really good fight against Dino Geist, probably better than Dragon Kaiser on its own. Maybe it's just my bias here. King Exkaiser's Thunder Flash is sadly the coolest finisher. I noticed that seems to be a trend with Braves. The first forms have better finishers than the final forms. Only exceptions are J-Decker and GaoGaiGar (and sorta Goldran; I liked Sky Goldran's finisher best).

>but you get the idea that Dinogeist is more than a match for the whole crew until Great Exkaiser appears
Part of this is because Exkaiser's a bit of an oddity in the series in that the side character teams get no upgrades. Pretty sure GaoGaiGar is the only other one to do this. But I guarantee you, if there was a new toy out that combined with God Max or Ultra Raker, it'd be kicking Dino Geist's ass, as is usual for these types of shows
>>
>>14222132
J-Decker doesn't really have its own finisher. I mean, I guess the J-Buster, but that barely counts, since that's also its main spam move. If you count Max Cannon, Fire has the exact same one. And Gaogaigar also just uses the same finishers, since its upgrade is a lot more low key than the others.

...what was Super Fire Dagwon's finisher? I've been led to believe it was the same as Fire's.
>>
>>14222149
>And Gaogaigar also just uses the same finishers, since its upgrade is a lot more low key than the others.
Maybe if you don't count Genesic as an upgrade.

>...what was Super Fire Dagwon's finisher? I've been led to believe it was the same as Fire's.
I don't know, I haven't seen it. Waiting on the torrent.
>>
>>14222161
>Maybe if you don't count Genesic as an upgrade.

Genesic only counts if you count the OVA Dagwon as an upgrade.

Gaogaigar's upgrade was Star, which had literally the same finishers, just now with added giant fucking engines on the back of the jet. The OVA stuff is OVA stuff.


That said, if we do count that, Genesic Hell And Heaven is mostly cooler because it's also focused on entirely the opposite thing (HaH was protection focused, that's why it never killed the cores. Genesic's was destruction focused, which is why it mauled the fuck out of its enemy.), and the Goldion Crusher... honestly, cool as it is, am I alone in wanting to see Genesic use the normal Hammer? After watching GFG use the Hammer to casually bat away missiles, I would love to see Genesic just smack things around with that.
>>
>>14222172
I put the Goldion Crusher and the Goldion Hammer on about the same level of spectacle. The Goldion Hammer already hit the melodrama ceiling for a final attack and the Crusher maintained that.

Honestly, though, I'd have preferred to see them attempt to give that same treatment to the Goldion Magnum, even if that wasn't something GGG really used more than once or twice. Seems like a better use of Goldymarg if you ask me.
>>
>>14222194
GGG never used the Goldion Magnum in the show proper. That's side material only.
>>
>>14222056
>Part of this is because Exkaiser's a bit of an oddity in the series in that the side character teams get no upgrades. Pretty sure GaoGaiGar is the only other one to do this
Well, Exkaiser is the first in the franchise, but even then, doesn't it take up until GaoGaiGar for the side characters to ALL get upgrades, not just one?

I haven't seen Fighbird or Dagwon, so I don't know too much about those.

And to be fair, they never go into how Exkaiser manages to get repaired or replenish his energy either.
>>
>>14222203
No one gets an upgrade in GaoGaiGar proper, unless you want to count stuff like Choryujin using the Eraser head or something. If so, then I think Goldran did it first. Silverion team got an extra member, Goldran got its own upgrades and then Advenger and Captain Shark had their silly combination

>And to be fair, they never go into how Exkaiser manages to get repaired or replenish his energy either.
I don't recall Exkaiser ever getting beat up enough to warrant such an explanation

I didn't like the Crusher was less "hammer shaped" than the original hammer. It just kinda looked like a big L.
>>
>>14222132
>Part of this is because Exkaiser's a bit of an oddity in the series in that the side character teams get no upgrades. Pretty sure GaoGaiGar is the only other one to do this.

It did, though? Let's run through all the series and their side upgrades:

>Exkaiser: none
>Fighbird: Guardion got an upgrade, right?
>Da Garn: Sky Saber to Pegasus Saber, Land Bison didn't get jack.
>Might Gaine: Tribomber to Battle Bomber, Guard Diver didn't get shit unless you count Joint Dragon Fire I guess.
>J-Decker: Build Tiger to Super Build Tiger, Shadowmaru got the ability to turn into that giant cannon.
>Goldran: Silverion to God Silverion. I dunno how the rest of it works, but I know Captain Shark and Advenger have that silly combination they can do.
>Dagwon: Liner Dagwon to Super Liner Dagwon, Shadow didn't get shit as far as I know, neither did Thunder.
>Gaogaigar: The Ryus can go Gouryujin and Genryujin instead of Chou and Geki. There's also THE POWER for a fight. Mic Sounders got multiple new attacks. King J-Der only got an upgrade in the OVA, though, and Big Volfogg never did.

I'm probably missing a few though, I haven't seen most of the Braves yet.
>>
>>14222252
Mic gets the upgrades of Disc X and the other 12 units that can make the Solitary Wave Riser.

ChoRyuJin and GekiRyuJin get the upgrade of switching into GouRyuJin and GenRyuJin, both of whom are stronger than the intended combinations and have Maximum Tou Long.

Volfogg gets no upgrades, he spends the last battle captaining the ship with the lens beams.
>>
>>14222279
>>14222276
Let me rephrase this as "Exkaiser is the only Brave other than GaoGaiGar where they don't add a new member into a prior combiner team later on in the show. In all the ones in between those two, there is at least one team that gets a new member"

If you want to count Gouryujin and Genryujin, go ahead, you're just making my point even stronger. Personally, I don't really count them because I don't really see a significant difference between them and Choryujin/Gekiryujin
>>
>>14222276
Thunder Baron gets no upgrades in Fighbird, Guardion gets the addition of Guard Wing to make Super Guardion.
>>
>>14222308
>Personally, I don't really count them because I don't really see a significant difference between them and Choryujin/Gekiryujin

There's a pretty vast difference there though. A lot of power over Chouryujin, and a lot of variety and scalability over Gekiryujin. They look similar, of course, but if we're deriding upgrades for looking similar then there's a lot of worse ones amongst the Braves.
>>
>>14222327
It's not just that they look similar, it's that they behave differently than how it's done in prior Braves. Fuuryu and Rairyuu would have become new parts for Choryujin in another Brave show. Here, they're playing mix and match.

>then there's a lot of worse ones amongst the Braves.
Not in my narrowly defined personal tastes. I've never liked the concept of "symmetrical docking" because it means you have two near identical components forming your new guy. That's almost inherently less interesting than having different components form something new. And here, not only do we have the individual components be largely the same, the "upgraded" forms are mostly the same as well. For shame.
>>
>>14222382
I don't know, they're not the BEST in additional partner design, but in my opinion, they're among the few that don't look like crap.

Super Build Tiger looks the best, and I've found most of the others disappointing. Battle Bomber looks like crap, and Sky Pegasus, I just couldn't get behind.
Fuck, I could go off on another tangent about Might Gaine's coloring design.
>>
>>14222411
God Silverion's a good add on and so is Super Guardion, although the latter's kinda of a generic design no matter what you do with it. I also like Sky Saber more, but I give Pegasus Saber points for the creativity and it's still not half bad regardless.
>>
New to Brave/Eldoran shows here. I'm interested in J-Decker, Dagwon, and Ganbaruger. Do all of these shows have decent, full subs, and which is the best?
>>
>>14222602
J-Decker and Dagwon have subs and Ganbaruger is in the process of being subbed.

I've only seen J-Decker, but it was good, if not my kind of show. It's absolutely the most plotless show among the Braves; it has no main villain, even
>>
>>14222602
Just keep in mind that Ganbaruger is highly focused on comedy compared to the other two.

>>14222011
So was Galient, Votoms' Scopedog and Giant Gorg, for that matter.

Are Seven-Changer, Draias and Dinogeist the only villains that got original molds for their toys?
>>
>>14223319

I always thought it was odd that Dougram, Galient, and Votoms got in, but not Layzner.
>>
>>14223342
>Seven Changer
>Villain
You may want to watch Da Garn all the way through. It's a good show, best music and tightest plot in the series.
>>
>>14224151
What is it with TF and Brave making six(ish)changers renegade jerks?
Sixshot, Sixknight, Greatshot, Seven Changer, Shadowmaru's brother.
Shadowmaru is the exception to that rule.

It does for the last, like 1/4 of the show.

I mean it's about robot cops, what can you expect?
>>
>>14222613
And you are absolutely one of the most tasteless people in this thread
>>
>>14224177
>renegade jerks
>Shadowmaru's brother

That doesn't really apply there, does it?
>>
>>14223342
Pretty much. Any other original robot villain got the shaft, since they didn't get toys.

>>14223806
All of those except Layzner got model kits released by Tomy-less Takara when they aired, so it's no wonder.
>>
>>14224221
Exkaiser was technically also about robot cops.
Still, it was a good thing the Geisters were there. They were hands down the most entertaining thing in the show
>>
>>14224264
Yea but they were space cops who specifically came to Earth to hunt down the Geisters. J-Decker and co. is just cops, that're robots.
>>
>>14220596
I think, in Victory's case, they still did it, but in an unusual way: the villains were the ones that got the competence upgrade.

The Breastforce never achieved much in the beginning, but once they all got the ability to become Liokaiser, they suddenly were a major threat.

Holy shit, look at this fucking thing.
I would have loved to see this show.
