It's the curse of one cour seasons. More time to explore and spend on the fleet before we have to rush to the climax always feels like things move too fast. If we had another dozen or so episodes to spend on more, for want of a term, stand alone episodes of Ledo exploring salvage life and the world, getting to know more of the characters better it'd be perfect. People might look at this kind of thing and call it filler but it's also sort of the point. To give you that time to rest and explore.

Hasbro tried something like this back around 2008 with their Transformers and Star Wars crossover line. It had characters piloting giant transforming mechs of themselves. I think the idea worked for faceless/helmeted characters like the clones and droids, but the idea of Luke building a giant mech of himself is a pretty silly one.

So I started watching this after going through 79', and up to a point I was preferring the original a bit more, but once the Zeta Gundam gets introduced and they change OPs..
https://youtu.be/bM9IvVH3pKE
I feel like some sort of switch flipped or something, but the writing, animation and a lot of the plot elements have been ramped up. The direction Kamille and Jerrid are going by the time the Titans try to drop a Colony on the moon, they feel like night and day compared to where they used to be.
I know it's been said numerous times in over 40 years, but Zeta Gundam really is one of the best Gundam shows Tomino has ever produced, right next to 79' and Turn A.

What are you even talking about, retard? OP1 is much better than OP2.

>>22587847
Is that what they say? You seem much more familiar with them than I do, dumbass, why don't you tell the class?

>>22587930
No, because I actually think the first half of Zeta is quite good, but this thread was made by some retarded faggot that thinks the opposite so I only discussed my views on the second half. The first episode is really fast-paced, and the early part of the series is really exciting and interesting as you learn about what's changed since 0079. The biggest negative is that the fights still have shit choreography, but that's not a huge complaint when the other elements are much better. I also don't particularly like Kamille but I find him more insufferable in the second half where he goes through the same fucking Four arc a further three times and has the same reaction every time. Even the OP is awesome. You have to have ADHD to think that the first half of Zeta is too slow paced.
>>
>>22587708
Ironic that the movies implied that all Kamile had to do to not get his brain scrambled was to just confuse Sirocco when he smushes him.

Why wouldn't they animate this for Zeta's 40th next year? What reason could they possibly have not to?

What kind of lame bullshit are we actually getting instead?

Why the fuck are the model kits getting so much worse?
I'm paying 20+ dollar import fees for kits that are somehow lesser in build quality than the war in the pocket kits from 6 years ago.
The fuck is going on? I know the economy over there crashed, but that doesn't mean they just forgot how to make kits.

Oh, I definitely remember this book. My dad bought it for me when I was, like, six. I loved tracing all the mechs in it. The bits on how to draw different perspectives I can still kind of remember, I think it was actually pretty quality stuff, in terms of general drawing skills.

The moment the rustling around High Moon started is when I re-bought both the TF Cybertron games on Steam after having previously had them on Playstation consoles. Because at least on PC they could be kitbash-modded to keep running easily - if needed. Same with Devastation, actually.

So we almost always talk about fictional mecha here, occasionally dipping into real mecha whenever there's news on that front, but has it ever been established what the first real-life mecha was? Obviously fictional mecha existed in literature as far back as the mid-1800s and then we have film/manga/animated examples like Metropolis, Tetsujin and Astro Boy, respectively. But at what point did man take fictional mecha and use it as an inspiration to construct an IRL fully functional mecha?

For the purposes of this discussion (though obviously we'll stray from it the longer the thread goes), let's define mecha as having a humanoid shape that can walk (not roll on wheels/treads) and has arms and hands/fingers that can manipulate its environment (no excavator buckets or the like), and can move independently of itself without strictly following the commands of its master (no remote controls). I won't say independent power source yet, but it would be a bonus.

Still don't understand what is the real point of this thread, but technically the first REAL mecha is the first robot built by human.

So likely something older than Honda ASIMO.

Indeed. Long story short. Antelope Monster, one of the Four Monsters was terrorizing the shit out of the people and being an asshole. The Young Braves go one by one to fight to kill Antelope monster. You know how that ends. The people pray to Unsen. Unsen makes a killer of enemies out of Basalt. When said killer shows up to kill Antelope monster he walks right by him and walks off into the sunset. My headcanon is he held up two middle fingers high in the air while walking away. Anyway Antelope Monster is finally killed by a young warrior who prays for the Lifegiver to take away his warbow. Challenge accepted. Antelope attacks him but bowless warrior ducks and Antelope monster slams his horns into a tree and gets stuck. He goes bonkers and beats himself senseless trying to run forward instead of backing out (the Antelope Trap). Warrior kills him, takes his last breath and yay man prospers. Also according to legend Killer of Enemies Basalt robot turns himself into a dead tree and lived in a lake for a long fucking time. More on that later. So yeah.

Finishing this after a few drinks. basalt mecha is now a fucking floating dead tree and lives in a a lake. He occasionally roars and yells at the people because fuck us apparently. This lines up with a Seneca (other Nations) tale of a tree that floated around since they could remember. Now this is actually factual. After the white men came they asked the Seneca old timers about that fucking tree and the fucking godawful noises they heard. So the the tale goes on and on and on. The white men named the floating tree "The Wandering Jew" and never had a name for the noises except for "The Lake Guns". Of course the tree eventually sank. Not sure when but some time after the Civil War.
