>>283516054Best scene in the whole show.
Episode 2 never.
>>283516423what were they thinking?
>>283514545Because the best parts of all the plane anime out there aren't about planes and most people don't care about plane stuff.
>>283516145It's sad how true that is
>>283516054sauce? wait never works.
>>283517628sounds like an extreme skill issue
Just rewatch area 88 like the rest of us

>>283514545There's not enough plane otaku directors nowadays.
Speaking of planes, what's with anime where girls fly planes/plane adjacent things and also fight some weird alien flying enemy? I swear sky girls, girly air force and strike witches all have that premise
>>283518260funthingsarefun

>>283517709Kabaneri of the Iron Fortress
I miss gunji ota in general.
>>283518368She looks tired and strung out.
>>283518260Girly Air Force was pretty much a Yukikaze clone but with planegirl moeblobs, even though Yukikaze already had a spinoff with planegirl moeblobs.
>>283515718>TL note: Prop means propeller.
>>283514545I used to love those Ace Combat games. A full blown anime Top Gun would be sweet. You'd need a really good writer though to present the tactics of good dogfights...and draw each battle out over 5 episodes or whatever.
>>283516423Just how many levels of meta is this? Are we heading into Nier-level spinoff territory?

>>283517842This is the only right answer, anime literally peaked right here.https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=__vGqp_BX_4&pp=ygUGQXJlYTg4
>>283518599>A full blown anime Top Gun would be sweet.Sky Girls is anime top gun.Also how about Stratos 4 which is anime X-filesSky Girls and Stratos 4 are by far the best aviation related anime imo
>>283518938wow
>>283518954Is sky girls good? I watched the ova but was kind of neutral on it
>>283518938This is how an India vs North Sentinel Island war would go.
>>283519062I love both Stratos 4 and Sky Girls but like SG better of the two. It's in my top 5 all timeIf anyone says it's like strike witches, they are a retard that didn't watch it, literally completely different in every way other than mecha musume aestheticThe OVA is a decent commercial for the show but the show is very story driven from start to finish and has some big twists, coincidentally not unlike Stratos 4
>>283517996
>>283515054Cars are loved there.
>>283518373I eventually found it but thanks.

Air travel is disgusting now. The imagination has been tarnished by having to sit next to all sorts of creatures. Pilots have tuna sandwich stains on their shirts. Its no longer aspirational. It no longer makes people dream.

>>283522510It's over. The Saudi oil princes (still can't believe this is real) that approached Sadamoto, Yamaga and Gaina could have easily funded 5 Aoki Uru movies but they just made a reboot of Grendizer.

>>283523225Whoever will throw money at them to make Aoki Uru. I hear the Israelis like planes so that sounds hopeful
It's because they've all been taken by the Electrosphere
>>283514545not enough manga source material
>>283514545just rewatch area 88
>>283514545Humans are to blame
>>283515852I like mecha too, but we had several decades worth of shows, most of which aired in the hand drawn era, avoiding the curse of bad cgi machinery. Compared to mecha, planes/boats/cars/trains/etc basically have nothing even if you group them all together. We had a great run and I can accept that.
>>283518938Accurate result for combat in a Civ game
Here are Japanese planes and anime, if you didn't know.
Did Aleste ever get an anime, or just a weird manga
>>283523225They use jewish money either way.
>>283519333I really like the Sky Girls OVA.I don't like how the show took so long to get to the good parts and how it toned down the eccenticities of the characters.

>>283524602love this ass scratcher wish she appeared in the main series
>>283525294Keep watching only one of those three dudes dieThe anime is all about this retard and her friends but I really got to like them after a couple of episodes
>>283517786Kotobuki actually has some really fun and interesting dogfights in ittogether with the fact that most of the girls dress like old west prositutes, this makes it a very good plane animeI wish we got a second season
>>283526427I used to think the praise for the Hayabusa in Kotobuki was pure japwank as if often in milotaku media but I read up on how it performed in China and Malaya and played around with it in IL-2 1946 and its actually really fucking awesome despite its extremely underwhelming armament
>>283525972
>>283525819>sol ace combat anime>it's a group of girls who found a still functioning f-15 from the last war and wants to start a school club in order to fix itI see it as a win.
>>283525643I really can't wait for AC8, with the earnings from 7 it better be full size this time.
>>283525318I feel like the only ace combat that would make a good anime is 5 and 6 because they have anime-tier story lines. 4 can be done with a good director. 3? Hard with the story branches.
>>283522521Even if it ever get's made, these designs will get butchered by CGI. It's never been more Joever.
>>283526427>>283526470Yeah it was refreshing to see something that wasn't just more Zerowank (which is also deserved). The Hayabusa is also my favorite plane to fly in WT, it's so goddamn maneuverable it'll do whatever you tell it to.
>>283529266It's good until you need to use the rudder which might as well not exist
>>283529529With its insane roll rate you can just turn the whole plane into a rudder whenever you need to
This poster tricked me, it's like 5 minutes of planes in 26 episodes.

>>283514545>why aren't we getting more plane anime?those days no director can manage story involving any difficult technology.If your plane isn't capable of vertical landing, turning into robot, or even just stopping in 0G, it limits significantly where the plot can happenNo stopping to jump out of the plane and catch a falling singer hitchhiker to before ending up stranded on a tropical island.I realize I'm missing the Macross Frontier series version of the catch, it was a good one
>>283522438Last Exile is frankly an incredible waste.Superb setting, superb music, all the elements needed for a grand work of speculative SF.And then midway it waste most of its screentime with romantic subplots until there's no time left to have a plot and it has to be expedited.Let's not even talk about the sequel, no reason to exist, only meant to sell thanks to the cute girls.

>>283543044the federation truly did nothing wrong.
>>283543523>I never did end up watching either one.Gate is silly but I'll give it credit: It's no where near that silly. It's more like Totally Accurate Battle Simulator.
For me? Witches
>>283514545IRL planes are too boring. Fighter jets in particular, that is why every discussion about them is identical to shonen power level slapfights where people post wiki articles at one another neither understands.
>>283544978Men love powerscaling in general.Shounen stuff is perhaps the more immature variant of it, and somewhere up the scale you have debates over military shit.
>>283544978Fighter jets aren't the cool and suave fantasy that Top Gun instilled in peopleThey're really just SUVs in the sky that shoot missiles at little blips on a screen. The current doctrine for dogfighting is just 'don't get in a dogfight, shoot missiles at little blips'
>>283518414Its surprising that you don't see much of them today. I guess its too easy to get info about the guns that they don't have the same mystique. The closest I see these days are Europeans that shoot blackpowder, because not everything is well documented about old muskets and jager rifles so there's some amount of digging and "I heard this from an old head" type knowledge.
>>283545071That's why we need SF where stealth plating makes planes invisible to radars. Or Minovsky particles
>>283525318If the Sekiro anime does well, BAMCO might do an Elden Ring anime, and then maybe other titles like Ace Combat afterwards?
>>283545189I'm playing a game that is pretty close to reality in terms of aerial combat, with one minor sci-fi addition: you get radar jammers with limited battery that can basically blind incoming missiles if you notch them. This means BVR battles can turn into WVR again if both sides run out radar missiles or end up merging. It doesn't take much to end the current air combat meta.
>>283531806>2007Almost every 2000-2010 sci-fi anime was hamstrung by poverty budgets. They're almost all dialog dump snorefests because no one had the money to anime more than talking heads.
>>283545071>>283545189Macross has both.Even as early as DYRL, VF combat doctrine has always been spamming missiles BVR to thin out hundreds to thousands of enemy crafts, before getting into the dogfight themselves.Even Macross Frontier shows that they used drones first before getting fucked up by ayyy and had to get into a knife fight.

>>283542373>Romcom anime about a pilot and his hot bratty WSO is unexplored territorySpicy possibility
>>283546432>It's a shit anime but sadly still one of the bestMade me laugh, very true post
There's something I really want to like about Last Exile, Xam'd, and Ergo Proxy despite them all being shit. Something is really comfy about an anime with a flying home base. I think Eureka Seven would belong to the same category except it's actually decent.
>>283545153Can't speak about the euros, but the blackpowder crowd I run into here are either really cool or insufferable faggots depending on whether or not they're also bench rest fags too.
>>283546611I don't think Last Exile is shit other than some pacing issues and general odd choices near the end.I've yet to actually get through Ergo Proxy. Re-L being cute as fuck can only carry things so long.
>>283546611>Last ExileLove it>Xam'dI liked it>Ergo ProxyShitFor me though? Turn A
>>283542373Crystal Kingdom denies the request.
I watched Area 88 OVA and it was really midThe animation and planes tearing (unrealistically) apart looked so fucking good, and I didn't actively hate the ending, but I feel like everything from characters to setting seemed somehow wasted, and they didn't even do that interesting shit with the planesIt could've been Project Wingman, just saying
Why are faggots that hate planes in general trying to speak with authority on the general public's opinion on planes?
>cute girls doing GA thingsand other anime concepts that will never ever happen
>>283548351Meds
>>283517875Fuck off retard.

>>283549152That's bullshit and you know it, /m/ accept basically anything mechanical.There's just a majority of mech because it's easier to set up a battle between oversized samurais with jetpack, than between tanks (and Girl und Panzer is very popular there)We even have a space train animehttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bSXwmsqniAc
>>283557955Why don't you count the other spinoffs like Nyarpeggio or this?
>>283549740WE GAAN
>>283514545Because you live in the timeline where Bamco decided to make Digimon anime instead of Ace Combat anime.
>>283558580Hey keep digimon out of this, we only get anime once every 4 years or so.
>>2835291147's storyline is just as anime as 5's, it's also in desperate need of rewriting to work out the kinksAlso Ten Million Relief Plan DLC is basically an anime OVA as a video game mission sethttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DzTJr5OfDZI
>>283558626Hey, I'm just telling the truth. We could've taken at least one bad anime off your hands. If everything I heard about Tri was true anyway.
>>283525972produce a mute, bloodless human to pilot your plane (me)
>>283524164I have no issue with planes being CG, because I know most machines are at least plausible to make good looking even on a low budget (see. late Initial D) and they don't have a ton of moving parts unlike most mechs, the issue is always more on the directing side. How do you make an object that just moves flaps/wheels, turns and shoots look cool and engaging?Honestly directing a plane anime like early Initial D but with flying and guns would probably work, at least make the longer fights/chases tense. Characters could also talk on radio unlike in that show which would avoid the issue of needing to cut to them for commentary.
>>283558428I didn't make the pic, I don't know how many spinoff there is

>>283559090>How do you make an object that just moves flaps/wheels, turns and shoots look cool and engaging? oh you sweet summer child
>>283563395That was just a rhetorical question anon, you could technically do the same scene with shitty directing and it'd look boring even if it had sakuga.
>>283563437counterpoint: in 3D it would never look this good no matter how "sakuga" you tried to make it
>>283555514Wished the final novel series got an anime. Love Sing ended on a pretty nasty cliffhanger.
>>283563562I never said it would match up, but it could still look pretty decent.
>>283558778Oh there are plenty of bad digimon i would trade for a ace combt anime, but the problem is that it would probably also be bad.
>>283563932At least the trade off would be that you could probably post some cool stills or at least short bits of animations that would work for shitposting.
>>283563395I don't even know what I'm missing out on.
>>283563932But at least you could horny post about the new nagase they'd invent for the anime
>>283517935Looks like Legend of the Galactic Heroes to me
>>283514545There are basically two options for a modern day plane anime:1. Ace Combat Anime series. Basically take the silly ass setup from the games and animate all the battles/politics shit. Would likely be slop. But would be great slop with banger music. 2. Take DCS footage and write stories into it somehow & sound track it. Problem is youtubers are already doing this en-masse, and with real ex-pilots: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-IY0Ylo9ZFEBoth options aren't really all that palatable.
>>283559090not a great example to pick from part 1
