So, if these Labor`s so useless and vulnerable in combat, why do they create?

The animation in the Patlabor movies were fucking top notch but holy shit were they way too fucking serious. Patlabor is a fucking comedy anime.
>>14246509
What's wrong with changing tone for a feature lenght movie?
Both movies still had their share of comedic relief and 50% more Gotou smugness
Don't be a sperg dude
>>14246249
Because they're cute.

But Patlabor is really a serious anime that got perverted into a shit comedy series. It works much better in its realistic and serious tone than what they turned it into, that is a fact.

>Patlabor is a fucking comedy anime.
No
It had comedic elements, but it wasn't a "comedy anime".
>>14248544
No it's not, realisticuck.
>>14248596
wew lads
>>14248836
Nice retort.
>>14247526
this
>>14248836
things can be a blend of both, my man
I remember in the movie where the they enact martial law there were still some goofemups and laffs to be had
>>14246509
The first movie came out before any of the OVAs or TV shows.
>>14246249
>Isolated and Ambushed without infantry support
>Command element immobilized
>UN Peacekeeping bound by Rules of Engagement
Those are bad odds for almost any ground force
>>14249515
The original OVA predates the first movie.
>>14246509
Patlabor can be either one.
Why you gotta sperg out bro?
Neither the tv series nor the movies invalidate the other.
even tanks are vulnerable given bad situations and terrain

So these Labor`s fought in the jungle with something like a war machine of support of tanks and infantry, and completely lost ...
In Gasaraki, TA cope with their tasks to expect a much better and more effective

At least in pat 2 the movie if I remember correctly, it was around the time when labors were new plus that squad was quite green. If you look at the scene with respect to the rest of the movie , it is pretty much becomes the establishing shot forVillains motivations and the reason behind his actions in the movie, to shake up the Japan that has been too much indulged in peace as a direct result of defeat in ww2 in a post-war era. Or something like that .It is an Oshii movie after all, vague as fuck with deep philo stuff or Japan.
