The Federation didn't have access to Newtypes beyond Amuro Ray nor did they have a genuine understanding of how to best utilize Newtype abilities in their Mobile Suits, that's why the Alex is just an overall high-performance mobile suit rather than using any Newtype-based weaponry.

Don't worry, we can just have the woman rape the resident femboy mechanic and succeeds. Let's one up Tomino on FoM rape.

Also we need get into contact with the gaiji--erm, gaikokujin on finding a good sponsors. I'm a little shakey on the sponsor >>23095617 got us.

We also need to think about the gattai sequence for one of the mechs. Do we make it look quasi-realistic or just keep it highly fantastical?

We also got to figure out how many episodes we should go for. Hopefully not too much, don't want bleeding hearts complain about our poor animate mules.

Realism is for normies, save that for the startup/launch ritual!
>We also got to figure out how many episodes we should go for. Hopefully not too much, don't want bleeding hearts complain about our poor animate mules.
The sweet spot is ideally 18-25 or 2 cours, plus maybe a tie-in film. We need enough for those merch sales, and the standard 8-12 miniseries ain't gonna cut it.

I think a common thread with the best mecha designers is that they aren't just 'mecha designers'. They have interests outside other mecha franchises and draw on them.
Kawamori's the most obvious example. Dude's a military and plane otaku that designs all sorts of stuff other than robots, enjoys writing and setting design, all that shit. He's not just trying to make new cool robots inspired by old cool robots.

Pure speculation of course, but I suspect that it's part of why there's such a distinct 'chinese mech' look that a lot of people hate about a lot of original designs out of China. They're mecha fans, but they're largely just drawing on shit they thought was cool in Seed, Unicorn and maybe 00 as their primary inspirations. So you end up with an exaggeration of characteristics from them, without enough other influences to diffuse them or introduce other new/different qualities. But I suppose it doesn't explain why SD three kingdoms inspired stuff also has some of those qualities.

>But I suppose it doesn't explain why SD three kingdoms inspired stuff also has some of those qualities.

Those are basically the same though, but official. They need to reference existing mecha designs and the 3 kingdoms characters, rather than just 3 kingdoms characters as robots/Gundams. So you get obviously derivative designs (since they are actual existing designs) with a bunch of stuff with a completely different motif on top.
>>
>>23101335
I think the Chinese style is also in love with complexity for its own sake but yeah it’s very derivative

Zanscare mobile weapons thread, because Victory Gundam is objectively the best TV anime Tomino ever made and second best Gundam series after Seed Destiny. Starting off with Zanspine, the Bespa equivalent to V2 Gundam.

I could probably draw a 0083 Zaku, but I would forget where all the little extra thrusters and nozzles the animators added.

I think the main issue here is that adding lots of extra Greebles doesn't make a suit more unique. That's the problem with a lot of Titans suits.

The most memorable Titan suits to me are the Hizack, Marasai, and Asshimar (the yellow UFO donut). Oh and Psycho Gundam. That's about it. I don't remember how to draw the other suits besides a vague outline.

I thought it was a pretty good show, maybe not a good sequel to Gunbuster in the sense of following up on the previously established tech and setting, but it feels like it got the spirit of it's predecessor right while doing it's own thing with having Nono playing a supporting to the other character's conflicts, it ain't perfect but it's definitely not the 4 or 3/10 I've seen some people describe it as here.
