I'm rewatching Patlabor againI think it's the best
>>283147901Nice, I did that a few months ago.>I think it's the bestI couldn't agree more.
>>283148051The tv version doesn't have the same magic that the ova and the movies have
COMBAT.
>>283148864I disagree, the TV version is my favorite, I like the OVAs and movies too.
>>283149089I have only watched the tv version once I only remember the Clancy tron episode about it
>>283147901I remember trying this out but got confused/bored trying to figure out watch order, got to the episode w that huge guy who looks like frankenstein leaving his mom behind on vacation to go back to the city "sv2s longest day" or something. How do I gfet back into it?
>>283151050Watch order? Just watch the ova and the movies
>>283151050There are two continuities:>OVA (Patlabor: Mobile Police) -> movie 1 -> movie 2>TV series -> OVA (The New Files)
>>283147901This
>>283151229Thanks
>>283151050Release order, just like almost everything else. It sounds like you've stopped near the end of the first entry, the Early Days OVA.
>Don't shoot
>>283147901I like it, but it's kind of dull.
>>283149170Tron? Do you mean the episode that takes place in New York?It's actually Shige's dream.
It's the only series I rewatch every yearIf you like patlabor you should also check out the official music videos https://www.youtube.com/@MOBILEPOLICEPATLABOR/videos
My favorite? Kanuka
>>283152412Shinobu
>>283147901Too old for me desu But it's good that you like it.Is it the OVA or the TV the one with the guy in the robot that was rejected by a girl and the cop told him to calm down?
>>283152549Tv
>>283152412Noa, of course.
>>283152718ty man
>>283152549
>>283152412My favorite? Kumagami
>>283147901
>>283152969whore
>>283152907Literally me dumping an unstable incel for chad
>>283153099Based
They aired the show on Fox Kids LatAm during 2002 to 2004, they originally dubbed the opening theme, but the people at Fox Kids told the dubbing studio that their version of the opening was "crap", so they just aired the opening in Japanese https://youtu.be/S7AQKVB_p1I the dubbed opening later aired on some local channels across Latam, it wasn't as good as the Japanese, but I won't go as far as to call it crap
Why is mecha usually seen as being a genre intended for older otaku?
>>283153450I want to grab Noa's tits and butt
>>283153099
>>283153450>>283153557I still need to finish the manga.

>>283147901Didn't like the movies, too pretentious for their own good, the original series had a few hints of pretentiousness sparkled in, but its also had lots of comedy and didn't took itself too seriously not to have a couple of real monsters from time to time also the "in 10 years who knows" thing aged poorly, it's been more than 10 years and we don't have giant police robots
>>283153557Noa's small ass
>>283153458Because the vast majority of anime is fantasy or slice of life now, while a glut of mecha and scifi came out in the 70s-90s.
honestly patlabor is the only anime I regularly rewatch. Love the TV series, love the movies. SHAFT!
>>283152412 there's only one correct answer jokes aside probably taisyo or labor-x. it's kinda hard to pick favorites
Favorite Labor? I liked the python
>>283153808One of the most psychotic but correct images I've ever seen.
>>283154181goto isn't a fucking faggot
>>283154223I wish he was my dad
>>283154223Shinobu pegged him.
>>283154223Not a faggot for you maybe
>>283152969Whenever she was on screen I always thinking I'd rather be watching kanuka instead
>>283153738It's beautiful.>>283154137The Helldiver.
>>283147901The new files: Two in Karuizawa has got to be one of the most comfy episodes of anything. Patlabor is such a cozy show. I got through everything on the blu-rays and felt horror when I realized there was nothing else after 33 hours of content.
>>283147901I gave the series a try but didn't end up liking it. I thought the movie was fine and a couple of episodes were stand out like the bomb threat episode. Might watch some more if the future episodes are good
>>283155046I think the opening from the first episode of the OVA is so good I just like the old guy and Shige
Why is she so cute though?
i've been enjoying this show I only just saw the OVAs this year. I don't want to devolve things into old good new bad but I have noticed that a lot of older anime are good at looking aesthetically pleasing without having to be overwhelming. The visuals aren't mind blowing but it's got a good artstyle and colors which puts it a notch above most stuff.
>>283153099Sexo
>>283149089I like the TV version but I think the first OVA and the movies are the best. Some of the TV episodes are so funny though, so really I just love it all.
Could a modern series/OVA work? Or would it just lose the feel?
>>283160707>OG OVA is a cast of Rumiko Takahashi characters in a mecha show>TV series is a slow paced slice of life about cops doing low-stake interventions with sometimes a terrorist subplot here and there>Movies are the usual Oshii 2deep4UYou tell me
