Are there any instances of mecha on any form of entertainment using hydraulic fluid or similar the same way Kurosawa would use blood splurting effects in his movies? I always thought it would be cool but I genuinely can't think of a single one.

Then you are dumb or blind or both as lots of shows use fluid in their units.
>>
>>23902809
>>23902819
I feel like maybe I didn't explain correctly, I don't know. My interest was specifically in Kurosawa-esque blood gushing effects with hydraulic fluid, not hydraulic fluid being used as an indicator of damage or just streaking on a mech. I guess if you're looking for a more specific contributing factor, I've worked in places where hydraulics are used and sometimes when they fail the lines are under so much pressure that it jets out everywhere, and I thought "hey that's like that one kurosawa movie", and then wondered if anyone had used that specific kind of scene but with mechs.
Sorry if I'm still not making a lot of sense, I'm not the best at explaining my passing thoughts.

I want something like a Command and Conquer/Star Wars: Empire at War game with mobile suits. You'd have mobile suits, tanks, infantry, and aircraft in ground battles and mobile suits and spacecraft in space battles. Research to unlock newer technologies. Maybe some light 4x elements with a world/space map where you conquer new territories. Never played it, but I guess I want a real-time combat Gihren's Greed.

>Better decision-maker than Roux
Emma's dumb decisions got the whole Radish destroyed
>Leader material, which Roux is not as suited for
Beside Judau himself, Roux was the only one in the Argama crew that would quickly put those Shangri-La scoundrels in their place and turn them into an actual squad.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bvZvynJjaWA
The only thing Emma was good for was slapping Kamille around because she was too afraid to be an actual parent figure to him.
There's really no contest here. Roux is better than all those AEUG, Titans, and Neo Zeon bitches besides Haman, who most of the times relied on newtype shenanigans for everything she did anyway

They didn't use Gundam X because there was no action figures of X in the pipeline. All the MSIA stuff was re-packaged/recolored releases for outside Japan, which obviously was pretty much just UC at that point. Big box retailers like ToysrUs were wanting additional Gundam merchandise (read as "WE DON'T WANT NON GUNDAMS, THESE CYCLOPS THINGIES CLOG SHELVES) in addition to the model kits to justify Bandai's shelf-real estate.

Bro most people in America did not watch DB, they watched DBZ because while DBZ was on US TV in1996, Toei/Funimation didn't release original Dragon Ball until 2001 in the U.S. If you were American and watched Dragon Ball, it's because your ethnicity was Asian or from Mexico and you had access to localized ethnic programming which was showing Dragon Ball.

Well, kinda in the case of G, since they went back more or less to status quo for Wing, except now it's full of pretty boys (and women, just because they weren't the protagonists they were actually important), but it certainly did work wonders for SD Gundam.

Finally, a good post
>>
a big point in Giant Robo is how the mechanical design strayed away from the contemporary "futuristic elements" that would end up dating it as another 80s/90s "aesthetic anime". So we end up with low-tech tools like the shoulder rest for the Bazooka Cannon, or Giant Robo's rocket boosters resting on a swivel and end up getting very memorable sequences.

Anyone who says Super Sentai is superior to Power Rangers in every single way without exception is just still bitter that in 1993-1994 they got stuck with this boring, inconsistent, nonsensical piece of shit and his two nothing sidekicks for their main antagonists, while Power Rangers gave us one of the greatest and most iconic villains in all of science fiction, superhero fiction, and tokusatsu.

>>23904135
I don't mind Rita saying kill/murder/death for a change as much as I absolutely fucking hate that her final line in the entire franchise is "I'll kill you all!" as opposed to crying out for Zedd or at least something headache-related. PR villains being able to actually talk like normal people and use big boy words was a nice change of pace but Once & Always went too far in the other direction, and with fucking Rita of all characters.

>>23904236
The problem with that whole arc is that this is Power Rangers; Rita is getting blown up at the end either way. There's never a problem that isn't solved by blowing the monster up. In 30 years, there was never a time where blowing up the monster was shown as a bad thing for ANY reason (unless it was the rare "the monster is actually a good guy" episode). So why pull that shit now all of a sudden? Hell, Zack himself got revenge on a monster once for ruining his date with Angela. So a date is worth avenging but not the death of one of the OG Power Rangers? Fuck off, writers.

>>23901277
>Zedd basically got defeated by a plot device
I'm still mad he didn't at least get to go all "NO ONE DOUBLE CROSSES LORD ZEDD AND LIVES!" and kill Bajillia and Scrozzle before being trapped in the illusion.

How is this b8 thread still alive?

Todd felt like a character who hardly did anything. A lot of his plot points went nowhere. Like we never see him interact with Alan, and we never see him interact with that Ae-Ferario who rescued him either. Dude never even got anything beyond grunt mechs.
What was his beef with Show anyway? It's not like he ever did anything personally to him like Kamile did.

Cronicle's great. He's a naïve, well-meaning nepobaby dork who's led astray by putting pussy on a pedestal. Getting into beef with a 13 year old because his psychotic girlfriend eggs on their rivalry is as funny as it is sad, pathetic, and realistic. Like, the guy probably had sex off-screen but never stopped being a virgin mentally.

>>23905189
Most Tomino rivals are and that's why they're always so good but Jerid is definitely one of the most realistic. CCA Char, Iron Mask, Cronicle, and Luin Lee also feel particularly relevant these days. Crossbone Zabine too though mostly because of that one page where he's getting something akin to a sexual thrill at the thought of submitting himself to a Great Man of History.
>>
>>23905212
The real interesting part I found about Jerid is that he has several traits that would put him as a hero in another narrative, but he's working for the most corrupt and subverted organization in the series so he just becomes the worst version of himself possible because it's encouraged by everyone around him, he's a useful(well maybe not useful) idiot that's used by others while he's convinced he's in the absolute right due to being unable to let go of hatred, he's not a flattering character but he isn't suppose to be, he's a warning of what someone can become if they give into toxic influences.

Epic fail

The month of June is halfway done, and we continue the P.M.U. Material Enhancement Campaign.

So far, we have had, free log in bonus of the GQuuuuuuX exclusive MS as well as Gundam (CD) arriving next week. There are also the latest major adjustments for each MS type making around over 30-unit adjustments.

For the past weeks, we have had new variants that are featured in Gundam U.C. ENGAGE with Zeta Gundam [IFC & IFB Equipped] and Unicorn Gundam [HML]. This week Narrative Gundam [B2-Packs] as we continue the month of U.C. ENGAGE.

Next update will feature the GBO2 8th Anniversary Pre-Event for the following month.

Can't they just give a real dodge roll for supports 700 and 750?

Also two consecutive dodge rolls, the lvl 2 or lvl3 I don't know.

Then let supports use melee while boosting.

Also give them shock dampeners.

That should be enough.
