>Make the most dangerous soldier
>Hes TOO dangerous

Why are old OVAs like this?
>>
If many old OVAs were like this the medium wouldn't be complete dogshit only praised by super casual anime fans

M.D. Geist has this weird trend in that combined with endless shilling and not being a major thing in Japanthe early 90s and 2000s anime western community deemed it the worst anime ever made but around 2010 the manime trend was starting to rise combined with I believe some channels actually reairing Geist too

I think Geist is more interesting than other OVAs it just didn’t have the animation to back it up. The directors cut had fixed these issues and now most people look at Geist better.

It was Japan's attempt at Warhammer 40k.
It was alright for what it was.

>follow the system and get granted power
>once you have power turn on the system because you only obeyed to get the power
That's been every man's fantasy at least once in his life.

Actually Warhammer tard check this out

>The original title of M.D. Geists translation was Thunder Warrior
>Rogue Trader was 1987
>The concept of Warhammers Thunder Warriors being super soldiers who were “too good” at their jobs was introduced a couple years later

Geist was before 40k learn other things

Geist was 1986 one year before warhammer. Maybe your dumb edge lord scifi copied it?

I wonder if that Geist bro on /m/ will show up according to his translated posts Geist was envisioned as trying be a Gundam like show with a lot of background material

Real anime boomer hours, I wonder if an true oldfags had a hate boner against manga corps and its odd love of Geist

What did O’donnel see in Geist? Like it’s crazy he made the company’s mascot and even funded a sequel

I am surprised more people don't talk about how it was likely a huge influence on MGS.

I never bothered with M.D Geist, it always just look like a Japanese animated version of like a 80's sci fi b-movie but even more boring like something made by Troma or Full Moon which I mean that's what most these OVAs are and that's fine, I'm sure it's ok for what it is. I can't understand getting worked up over it though but those older fans were just really harsh on anime back then like Sage but now I feel we gotten too soft, needs a good middle ground.

Isn't this just Geist but not edgy 80's schlocky? Crazy it's trapped on VHS dub and sub.

I want MD Geist 3.

How so?

I always wanted to see exactly what Geist did with the other MDS, Krauser was clearly insane too so the rest must have been worse.

I have the prequel comic all 3 issues (it’s a literal comic not manga) about why Geist got locked up but tldr he “accidentally” lets a nuke go off in a populated city. Krutes then orders him imprisoned and the MDS program shut down as they then go to make fight tech armor more

2 mutant clone super soldiers, one of them fully embracing his nature and the other one more naive and trying to be 'good' despite of it. Both enjoy all the killing
The powers that be who need these men, but are also afraid of them and try to dispose of them through backhanded means.
Geist also looks a lot like Liquid, uses his catchphrases. Then theres the final duel on top of an enormous mobile base thing...
'MDS' also sounds a lot like 'MGS' but I am reaching a bit with this one lol

I find Geist so interesting because he’s clearly the villain and it’s never brought up or justified the OVA is about him so we follow him and he just simply wants to fight since he’s the most dangerous

Dumb secondary.

You don't even know what the phrase you're copying means.
