Did you like Medabots?
>>282544907I dunnoI liked it enough as a kid but never saw all of it, feels a bit 2 kodomo 4 me to go back and try and rewatch in my 30's
It's still wild to me how mismanaged the IP is. It could have been huge but they fucked it up hard.
>>282545267>decades later>we still don't know who he was
>>282544907Hell yeah
>>282545826I knew the basic, but I had no idea he was the main character of the original Medarot game or that an older Ikki becomes the new Phantom Renegade in one of the later games, so that was pretty cool to find out
>>282545826
Cinema.
>>282544907Did they fuck in the end or what?
>>282544907I never got too into it but I was a fan, the designs like Metabee were cool and I had a couple toys, I think. Him being voiced by a black man in the English dub was also charming in a way. Are there many robot IPs out there right now that are similar to Medabots?
IT'S TIME TO BATTLE, YEAH ROBATTLE... MEDABOOOOOOOOOOOOOTS!!!!
>>282547200the alien invasion going on in the background was one of the weirder elements
I loved medabots as a kidI think i had that diecast metabee model kit because i remember being disappointed it wasnt poseableI remember the series fondly because it made had weird feelings for the abstract robot girls, Peppercat and Brass we're so hot.
>>282547088Damn
Fuck yes I love Medabots
>>282548530A wooden beam gave her her first orgasm, how humiliating She got weirdly nicely defined legs and ass in that scene, is like they used an adult real woman for reference
>>282548614Me too, anon
>>282548771Hell yeah!I need to build my Rokusho and Metabee kits, put them off too long. Wish I could find the Cyandog one.
>>282548771For some fucking reason the pic was sent like that>>282548788I only have Rokusho for now. I want to buy Metabee, but it's always the first to sell out when it hits stores. It was my first model kit and I had a lot of fun with it.
>>282547657NTR'd by the other girl
>>282549143Yeah it's a tough one to get a hold of. There have been several reprints as of late, so one is bound to filter through eventually.And it's funny, Arcbeetle was my first kit as well
Custom Robo is cooler!
>>282549618Lol no
>>282544907Yes, especially the animation scenes in >medabots robo battle championships world cup team japan vs egypt>medabots robo battle championships world cup team japan vs america>flying episode
>>282550172https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_suh02Ivxo8https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5gvUiSHfQY0https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vgEvBGiEtEA>>282545084>>282545113Runru's mom.
>>282544907Yeah, games are quite fun too once you get the mechanics down
>>282550172>>282550502Medabots had selfies even before they were called that.
>>282547088>>282548530ToT What episode?>>282548743>is like they used an adult real woman for reference>used an adult >adult LOL, no. You missed Kc best era, cutiegarden and the other chan I always forget... You would be surprised how hot 7yo to 13yo are.
>>282546987>>282545632>>282545021She's super cute
>>282551000The English dub shuffled the episode order around. It's episode 14 (JP) or episode 33 (US). The one from Ninja World.
>>282551111Quads don't lie.
>>282551111Arika and Kikuhime are both cuties
>>282551000easy there
>>282551353My trips don't lie. Also no mudes or anything like that, all Instagram/Likee/TikTok tier, all safe and hot. Wouldn't post it anyway
>>282551249Thanks! Now I remember.
>>282551739*nudes
>>282545826Wasn't he the tall one from the mob trio.
>>282551345Man i need to rewatch this show thats some wacky shit
>>282544975I enjoy kodomo anime now in my 30s more than I ever did as an actual child
>>282548414Br(azilian)ASS.
I remember this airing as part of a kids' variety show here in my country when I was young, but I can't recall much except for the opening and that cool Medabot with the cloak
>>282551316>>282551345Welp, Time for drawing some r34 of her
>>282552500Robofucker awakening Them looking real cutesy and soft sometimes truly had an effect on me
>>282550502I knew i found Runeru appealing for a reason
Kikuhime? The greatest
>>282553099A robocat is fine too.
>>282553179Hot!
>>282553686I like how the shitty wiki has shots showing her groin for some reason>>282553755Very
>>282553952>showing her groinBASED.>VeryIndeed, I want runru to crash my pelvis in a hard savage anal sex session with her big ass. Also to tell me my fortune.
>>282544907Yes
>>282544975I felt the same way when I tried to rewatch CCS & Kodocha. 29 is too old for anime.
Season 1 is so cute and charming, season 2 was boring.
>>282554089An extra 4koma in a volumen release is about how the voicelines of the original cutiechan doll Runeru was made from accidentally come out even after Runeru became sentient, she is very embarassed about it because thats the equivalent of farting for her.So if she told you your fortune while you fuck her ass thats basically her brapping on your dick.
>>282554297>An extra 4koma in a volumen release is about how the voicelines of the original cutiechan doll Runeru was made from accidentally come out even after Runeru became sentient, she is very embarassed about it because thats the equivalent of farting for her.Do you have it? Can you post it? I want to see it now.
>>282554143I disagree as a fellow 29 year old
>>282554219I pretend season 2 just doesn't exist
>>282554143>29 is too old for anime.I doubt you actually believe this if you're spending your time posting here
>>282554143I disagree as a 35 (amost 36) year old.
>>282554219Wasnt season 2 the one they made for the US market? The one where metabee transforms into a car?
>>282554690Yep, that's right. And it's horrible.
>>282554721I remember liking the concept of the medabots swaping parts more often and transforming but it did felt off
>>282554530I don't have access to that atmAnd i don't wanna derail the thread, maybe i'll make a new thread with the Puniru volume only stuff, that included
>>282544907It was much better than how I remembered it as a kid, yeah.
I still don't understand how the rich kid's medabot was able to use the Medaforce like Metabee and Rokusho despite not having an Ancient Medal.Mostly because the episode right after it happened was the last one I saw.
>>282551316That's a boy.
>>282554888>888Fortune: Very lucky! You will post it in a "Puniru volume only stuff" thread.
>>282554985Wasn't it resonance? Could have been because of all the time he spend with Metabee and Rokusho.
>>282554998Even better
>>282554998tomboy*
>>282554143I'm rewatching CCS now, at 31, and I'm enjoying it a lot.
>>282555984Lgs, cunny, tweens, young teens and old men are a match made on heaven.
>>28255414329 here and I still have a lot of fun with these classics
Wait, there are people who actually think Kikuhime was a boy?
Kikuhime was the best character.
>>282544907>>282545084>>282545113>>282545294>>282546812>>282546834>>282548414>>282548530Post more MedASS of these two.
>>282557232No.
>>282557539>pointing the gun for the picYou don't fool anyone, you either broke the glass with a medafart or with a hip attack.
>>282557566ANAL SEXO with all of them.
>>282544907Man that the fuck was that second season, it's like they rebooted the whole show
>>282557979What seconds season anon? Are you tripin? S2? LOL, bullshit, that doesn't exist.
>>282544907It lacked that "je ne sais quoi" for it to be greater. But TV stations broadcasted the shit out of it. I member catching it on cartoon Network or some other channel. The LatAm spanish dub was an easy 8/10, the designs were ok, maybe the artstyle was too simplistic (maybe to reduce costs). The series was a solid 7/10 maybe more. I think the worst thing was that the story didnt had any clear objectives let me explain, In Pokemon you know that Ash wanted to be the best, thus he travelled like a madman because he wanted to explore the world and git gud in the process, and team rocked wanted to steal pikachu because... reasons? But in medabots I member they wanted to eaither win a tournament and / or defeat some villain. I mean it was a competent series, but too bland on the story department.
>>282557566Bump for more sexy lgs.
>>282554985>"rare medals" is just the name given to the original non-mass produced medals>the dub reason given for Sumilidon's medaforce is that his mass-produced medal was so high level that it unlocked ancient powerschild me thought it was badass. I love when the Sakuras of the team get main character bullshit powers and close the gap.
>>282558716In retrospective im glad it wasnt milked to death like Pokemon, becoming a repetitive series with a cucked character who cant have a proper development.Even better, im glad Medarot never got a second season
>>282544907I got the Arika ending on the GBA gameusing a guide
>>282561127Based. She was my crush when I was younger
for me, it's Ikki's mom
Did Karin liked Ikki?
>>282561846>sexy loli kunoichi butt>brass looking like a sassy little bitch tooman no wonder im how i am today
You know I just remembered, Karin was one pasty bitch in the 1st season. same thing with Ikki's mom. bit of a shock to see them with normal skin tones in the GBA game
I liked the JP narrator.
>>282544907
>>282544907Yes and I wish I could access my mobile game account again but can't thanks to Google. Even if I made a JP Google Play account, I don't think I can get my original account back.
amazing series, seriously a fucking gem that perfectly encapsulates its time period of release. I just don't know why they had to completely replace all the characters in the second season (or was it the third?). Totally killed any interest I had in the show seeing the relationships and characters be replaced with no mention
>>282564221funny thing about those kilobots? they were all medabots in the games. barely an original anime only design, most of them were from the the 3rd game, while the second season was an loose adaptation of the 2nd.
>>282564221It captured the pokemon sensationalism perfectly, while still being it's own property.
>>282545343Look, a digimon
>>282565895Cuz it's from the mobile game collab
Cool show
God I love the art style for this series.
>>282544907I remember to had a crush on Karin when I was a kid.
Is the franchise still around? Last time I saw it they were doing some mobile gacha shit.
For me? it's Blackstag.
>>282574994A collection of classic games for Switch was also "recently" released, but the last games in the franchise were made for the 3DS. Nowadays what keeps Medarot alive are gacha and model kits.
>>282544907Back in the day, sure. I stopped caring after the ending of the World Tournament and they made that shitty season where the medabots turned into cars or something. The manga was interesting too.
It was so bizarre how they made a second season where the events of the first season where seemingly ignored and they made these Killobots things who were basically reskinned Medabots from the first season made to be killer machines or something like that.
flashback to the mid-2000s
>>282579430Who is the meganekko?I don't remember her.
>>282545404is that a fucking blade liger metabot? giv it to me right this god damn second
Was Metabots even popular even in Japan? I somehow never got the feeling that it ever took off and I doubt that compilation game that was released several years ago ever took off either
>>282582807Thats the thing, it really wasnt. The tried to hit the same market toy wise that digimon did, except all the scanner tools were a bigger hit then playing gacha for medals.
>>282582807I remember trading somewhere that the second season was made for the american market so id say noAt the end it was part of that 90's collectible monster fad that pokemon started.At least it did better than robopon, and robopon had giant tits
>>282583187I tend to think of Monster Rancher as a franchise obviously trying to cash in on a fad that came and went.
Navi my beloved
Medabots was among my favorite shows as a kid I thought it was cool as hell. Were the Gameboy games any good? I remember wanting them but never had the money for it.
>>282582149The gacha has had a lot of crossovers. From the time I started to when I stopped playing it there were Ghost In The Shell, Rockman.exe, Digimon, and Mashin Hero Wataru events with 1 to 4 crossover Medabots each event.
>>282544907I don't remember the show as a kid, I don't remember it ever being on Saturday mornings with Digimon & stuff. I did however have a metabee toy that I found outside once, the limbs and head came off like you could mix & match with other robots I thought it was cool. I enjoyed the show as an adult, first two seasons were great it kinda fell off by the third season and I'm not sure I bothered with the forth.
>>282544907Had a lot of fun watching it as a grown up, but season 2 was too much for me and droped it halfway. It was like it wasn't even the same show.Still surprised it never got more popular. Like having customizable robots battle leaves so much room to do all sort of genres. Hell they could even do gacha now since it's so popular. I hope it picks up some time
>>282544907all 1st season of medabots was peak, funny enough it was like early pokemon where the dub tried its best to hide the japanese from the anime but 2nd season was weird. maybe it was the lack of the old cast that was a red flag for me but also nothing happened, it was all too stale
>>282579910Is that the office lady Sea Slug fell in love with?
i loved it but i didnt like how the finale was just a big joke about giant robots. give us at least a little bit of tension, not a lunchroom comedy sketch.
>>282544907Season 1 was noth short of amazing. Miss me with that Killobot gay shit though.
>>282544907Yeah, it's good and has aged well too.It's the one franchise I'll never understand how they failed to capitalize on the several videogame shooter sub-genres craze. It would have sold itself: Battle royale where you use a base model (e.g. Rokusho / Scissors), and then you unlock parts both from that model or others, which you can the paint and customize. It would be the one (1) game ever to actually made proper use of unlocking new characters forever. Then add arena modes like 1v1 and 3v3 for esports, custom map options, then later when they start running out of the original characters make contests for players' ideas to submit and vote on to be implemented.>>282545477>>282545534And then have a hundred trillion collaborations that add model parts for whatever the hell the player base wants ad infinitum.
played this game so much
>>282544907This is one of the things that got me into customizable robots. Too bad I never got to play any of its games.
Did the andorran faggot holding the franchise hostage finally die?
>>282544907Yes. Especially since it reminded me Plawres Sanshiro, one of my favorite childhood anime (it's also fantranslated with English subs) in similar style from the director of Pokemon anime. If you're Medabots or Pokemon fans, I highly recommend Plawres Sanshiro. For an '80s anime it aged like an old good wine.
>>282597935What MENA country are you from?
>>282544907No, it's a bit difficult during rewatchs.
>>282545534SEXOOOOOO
>>282599555How so? Any specific part in particular? It's been a while since I rewatched the whole show, but from time to time I like to rewatch the ninja castle episode.
>>282544907One of my favorite Anime ever. The Jap version has so much cut content it really makes it a lot mroe charming
black metabee is better than the show itself
>>282545678Rokusho the best.Hell I once had a dream that he was my partner.But I did not have that watch to relay commands.
>>282600844Peppercat's design is genius.
they should just reboot with this cast+Nae and Ginkai.
>>282602714https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joseph_MotikiToo bad Medabots is his only anime role.
>>282574789Karen=Kikuhim>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>Arika.
>>282602714I wouldn't go that far, but he did carry the dub side.>>282602781Nae yes, Ginkai no. Nae is the hottest in the series (from an anime only perspective) and it is a crime she was trapped in the horrible sequel.
>>282544907I love Medabots.I finally starting to learn Jap after putting off for years because 90% of anything related to Medabots is Jap only.A part of me wants that brought over to the states, but I just know something dumb would occur during the translation process like calling male and female tinpets type A and type B or other.
>>282602593I like that when they kidnap Ikki's mum, she just stays at their base making food for everyone, and they all love her for it.
>>282602593The only right way to watch Medarot is with the Japanese version
>>282602826Meds now
The robots were overdesigned.They should've kept the designs simple.A lot of the success of early Pokemon is because any retarded kid could doodle their favorite pokemon in a couple of strokes.The medabot designs are way too complicated for that.
I absolutely loved medabots growing up. When I went to a Japan I tried to find a figure of medabee and thankfully my friend got me one on his tripIt and CardCaptor Sakura had such soul
>>28260341799-00 cel animated series are peak soul.
>>282544907Pokemon is special but if not for that, Medarot would be in first place when it comes to childhood series. Samurai X was too boring for young me and i didn't liked how Chinese DB felt
