What is the takeaway of Newtypes in F91? On one hand, Seabook becomes a Newtype supremacist of a sort who believes that with guidance, the power of human connection will turn everyone into Newtypes. Cecily takes it a bit further not only that she is pro-commoner like Seabook but she also criticizes her father for not embracing being a Cyber Newtype (which happens implicitly by virtue of her seemingly not caring about the implication that her grandfather forced Corozzo to go through the process). On the other hand, Birgit makes it clear that prior Newtypes all lived miserable lives and it's revealed in the finale that Iron Mask's insanity comes from being a Cyber Newtype.

Newtypes in hindsight are funny since they're supposed to be the next evolution of humanity but throughout U.C. most of the Newtypes we see end up with severe PTSD or autism, or gain a superiority complex and try to take over or destroy Earth and a large segment of humanity.
>>
F91 is an incomplete story but as it stands its more about family than newtypeism or war and peace. Both Seabooks and Cecilys stories revolve around reconciling with their estranged family members and while Seabook is able to forgive his mother and see that deep down she cared about him (symbolized by the F91 she made that protects him during the war) Cecily has to accept that she needs to cut off her two-faced aristocrat relatives that only seek to exploit her. Seabook himself says that "We can think about what Newtypes mean when the war ends". Maybe it was something they would have resolved in the scrapped TV series but F91 is really a movie about broken families.

>she also criticizes her father for not embracing being a Cyber Newtype (which happens implicitly by virtue of her seemingly not caring about the implication that her grandfather forced Corozzo to go through the process)
I dont think thats the intention here. What she really meant to criticize iron mask for is that he cant express that resentment for making him a cyber newtype to her grandfather and instead impotently hides his anger and resentment behind the mask. Iron mask thinks that his mask (a very literal symbol for hiding his true emotions and embracing his role within the family) will protect his family members from his own anger (he would beat his wife to death if it werent for the mask) but in reality the mask protects him from his family (he is afraid of actually expressing his resentment toward his father and going against him, he doesnt want to confront why his wife left him).

Crossbone is a side story written by someone else but basically after F91 Bella officially starts a counter movement against cosmo babylonia as bera lona which causes the whole uprising to fracture and peter out because they were now divided between her and her grandfather. The Crossbone vanguard is dissolved and the war ends and only years later does bela start a whole new vigilante group that she calls the crossbone vanguard to attract former cosmo babylonia soldiers as allies

You seem to think real robot is a power level and durr realism thing. It isn't. At all. It's entirely an aesthetic of design. Dai Guard is just a super robot. Gunbuster is a super robot. Transformers are super robots. They all have a similar design language. Gundam, Votoms and Macross are all real robots because they all share the same real robot design language. It is 100% an aesthetic. Nothing more.

>It is 100% an aesthetic. Nothing more.
And just to make sure, you're confirming that by saying
>aesthetic of design
>real robot design language
it's just the robot itself and you're not going to start mentioning the mood or setting of the show?

>>23904783
Yes it's entirely the robot itself. You can simply draw a robot and it will look either super, real, or more rarely something in between, depending on the design language. However certain types of settings are often paired with one aesthetic more than the other. The obvious would be real robots are often paired with military styled settings, like Gundam or Votoms. However you can have that setting with super robot styled designs as well i.e. Getter Robo Go. On the other hand super hero styled settings where there's science lab or similar organization that defends a city or area are often paired with super robots, such as Mazinger or Evangelion. Yet more rarely that type of setting can be paired with real robot designs such as Patlabor. I know you're going to ree against this but it's beyond obvious you are a total reddit fucking newfag.

The thing I never got about the SEED remaster changing Nicol's death is that they don't actually change anything else surrounding it. Kira still reacts the same way as he did when he reflexively killed Nicol, all his dialogue about it is the same. Literally the only thing they changed was the visual.
What's the point of changing the visual but nothing else to back it up? Do you think they would have if they could have?

I saw no Sakura thread in the catalogue so here's one.

I'm currently finishing Sakura Wars 2. I'm right after the mission where you rescue the Hanagumi from being encased in crystals and Kyogoku summons the weird ass flying fortress Musashi..

So far I really enjoyed it. I picked Kanna again (and I think I got the file transfer right on Mednafen) and her loneliness left me shocked. I knew her backstory from Ouka Kenran, but I had no idea things would get so sad. I couldn't help but cry too when she was crying by her father's tomb. It was a good pick though, Kanna is very cute despite her being a tough tomboy. She gets bashful so easily~
Sadly I find her koubu specials in this game less cool than the ones for the first game, they couldn't animate a karate koubu quite right yet.

Most chapters were very fun and full of great pacing and escalation. Sadly though I found Orihime's to be rushed when Ogami forcefully drags her to talk to her father.
Orihime and Reni are great btw. The Eisenkelds looked really fancy and cool, too.

Reminds me of the last two installments of the Zero series. Even Capcom realized how stupid it was to cut off a preestablished fanbase on the original console line and multiplatformed RE4.

It would have worked in the sense that the writing could say it worked, but it'd be bad writing. Humans just don't work like that.

Obviously you end up with Lelouch's sister kidnapped specifically as a convenience to tie him to the movie's plot, but new conflicts starting anyway was always the most natural progression.
