>Mechwarrior isn't the real main image of mecha in the west
I read Lancer RPG and could not find any instance of "mecha", it was just "mech" every time. This is without going into the Orientalism
>>
>>23980119
Those guys are a different beast. I've read their interviews and they're dollar store "Mecha is weird! weird! toy commercial! I wish it was about the characters, not the robots!". I don't think they mention mechwarrior at all, they're just outsider parasites. That's more like your aunt calling all consoles nintendos.

I find a good compromise is to do the OYW in one go and the watch the rest in production order, otherwise it gets annoying how often they keep jumping back to that one time period.

But to be fair Yanaka is still retarded for not adapting his plan after hiring Takahashi, if Omori can understand Takahashi's weaknesses juts by working with him once like he did with Ex-Aid, then Yanaka should have also been able to since he had already worked with Takahashi twice before Zeztz. Only defense that comes to mind in that respect is not expecting a writer who's reportedly a big fan of Faiz to screw up the asshole Rider part so catastrophically.
>>
>>23980235
You forgot that Nox's actor wasn't told anything about his character and that he had to learn how to portray him by reading each episode's script as they were delivered to the cast, not even the filming crew knew why Nox did certain things in certain scenes nor how the actor was supposed to approach that. Yanaka also delegated a good part of the creation of fucking Sieg's character to Sugihara of all people just because he was the one directing his debut episodes. Yanaka's also the one who brags about the Riders not becoming allies until the very end, even if it got very irritating and nonsensical on Nox's part to just keep turning the heroes down over and over again, so that was also probably enforced by him.

He can't steal an idea that Takahashi willingly gave out for others to use, that's retarded.

What other mobile suits including the AU can handle beam magnum?
62 replies and 8 images omitted. Click here to view.

>>23978832
well my point is they didn't honestly half ass it anymore than pretty much anything and with the explanations they gave there's really nothing contradictory
they're just a little dumb
That's my point, it isn't actually stepping on any toes or contradicting crap, both explanations they give work in their own context. They just require accepting the magnum is a special boy gun which it already is by every trait we really see of it so what's the problem exactly? I got my problems with "psycoframe is super duper strong" personally but it's not the biggest pill gundam's ever asked anyone to swallow, and electrical malfunctions because the gun's got unique power demands isn't a huge ask either to me. There's nothing that wrong with the explanations, at a certain point you just gotta admit the issue is elsewhere and just a matter of taste
>>
>>23978627
But they do power down. Look at literally any time it’s been used including Delta Plus and Silver Bullet suppressor. SBS has literal electrical sparks what the fuck do you want

>>23978797
Except we do. And this is how. The MS provides the final charge to complete the reaction in the gun since the M Particles are pre loaded to a state right before breakdown. It’s always been consistent. Cuck.
>>
I'm straining to remember since I don't have it handy to put on an check, but wasn't Unicorn designed to have universal weapon compatibility, but that means it's own weapons like the Beam Magnum have universal ports on them meaning things can pick up and fire them despite them not really being compatible?

So it's like how you could plug an appliance from overseas into a US wall socket and you'll blow a fuse because the voltages/power flow are wrong
>>
>>23980124
It just has standard anaheim electronics plugs which are effectively universal (but not entirely)
But otherwise yeah anything can try and probably successfully fire it once. Delta Plus does, it has no real relation to the Unicorn project.

That's just anaheim electronics having a virtual monopoly on MS development, on both legitimate military projects for the Feds and secret backroom deals with terrorist groups. For reasons of being cheap with reusing parts and designs, being able to make use of stolen\captured equipment, EFF and Zeon tech mixing and mingling during the Zeta\ZZ era, and Anaheim just being kinda brazen about developing weapons for everyone, it ended up being that most if not all sides and factions ended up using the same hardware standard for weapon plugs

still need to load the software to make it work though

>>
>>23979992
That's one of the reasons I expect it to go on for quite a while longer, yeah. The fights against the Second Forms of Domad and the Demon Queen are likely to be one "whole" chapter worth of pages (50 to 60) each, which is half a tankobon's worth of content alone, and we still need to get to that point in the first place. I also think you'd want a lengthy chapter or two after the final battles for the full ending and any epilogue stuff.

Not really directly SRI related, but Yoko Umezu, the artist for Vermeil in Gold, which is also published in Monthly Shonen Gangan like SRI, passed away in July. Nakayoshi seemed like he was good friends with both her and the writer, so I figured it worth mentioning based on that. May she rest in peace.

Iirc, the Grand Chers influenced their pilots, amplifying their thoughts like how Yuu's sister went bonkers. And were more parasitically dependant.
The Brains were more like children and had more autonomy, in a symbiosis like relationship with their pilot.

Week 2 of the 8th Anniversary Celebration Campaign for GBO2, and with it, part 2 of the major update.

The 2nd part introduces the sudden celebration of the ultimate form of the Beast of Possibility, equipped with every possible Armed Armor from Banshee and Phenex NT. Unicorn Gundam PF is here as part of the dual major anniversary suits for the 8th year of GBO2 with V2 Assault Buster.

More suits, including Gottrlatan and Turn A MS, are to come in the later weeks.

That's just powercreep since it was the first 750 actually tuned for 750(F91 was tuned for fighting lv4s). At the time it was overpowered but has since been left behind.

OP here, just finished God Mazinger.
It was fine, though really confusing. They changed God Mazinger's voice three times, and seemed really inconsistent on whether the dinosaurs were magically summoned or were robots. The tech level was all over the place, and very few of the characters were interesting at all. Felt like Eld was upstaged in coolness by Dorado (who was a demon or alien, I guess?) really hard.
