Late with this, but new chapter of Mobile Suit Gundam Eight this week:https://comix.to/title/zkm6-mobile-suit-gundam-eight/11137971-chapter-8.1Past chapters:https://comix.to/title/zkm6-mobile-suit-gundam-eight/
>>23971068I'm still waiting for the alien infestation outbreak...
>>23971072Me too
>>23971073I'm guessing that some retard from the government is fucking with the Mother Swan's carcass and created a viral infection from it.
>>23971076And given the Seven-Eight war we have right now, most likely the aliens seen in the prologue may be the type of creature found in a Biohazard/Resident Evil story and that they were created to punish the rebellion Naomi is a part of.
>>23971068bump

>>23980384Yeah but they weren't buying the toys. They really thought that it was something that was going to last forever. The Hasbro takeover revealed just how stagnant things were for Sentai in Japan.
>>23980399It's still in the public consciousness though anon, toys not selling be damned. Toy selling is only important to the toy company, the TV drama itself is also important.
>>23980402The show was a glorified toy selling commercial and it had over a decade of financial failures. This "public consciousness" you speak of was completely useless. These shows cost money to make and it was only getting more and more expensive to make. They make their money by selling the toys. Speak with your wallet, not your feelings.
>>23980404Okay, Bandai Corporate.
>>23980406Okay, bleeding heart boy. Maybe you should've bought more Ninninger toys which is when the decline began.
am i good to just start with zeta and nothing prior, this bitch does primal things to my brain and i want to see more of her
>>23976682Speak for yourself. That's one of my favorite parts of ZZ.
>>23976682Starting Haman's character arc with Char, and not ending her character arc at least with Char involved, is maybe some of the most unsatisfying bullshit ever. I personally don't like Haman and Judau because it usually involves the "I can fix her" trope.
>>23976826Except he didn't fix her.
>>23977899To be fair, he never tried, since he was never interested to fix her in the first place. Judau just wanted to be left alone
What the fuck her first appearance is episode 32 holy fuck
Gurren Lagann
>>23971315Getter Robo was the first with pilots, and there was the centipede robot from Astroboy for non-piloted robots.
>>23971315Maybe? Gerry Anderson anons feel free to chime in.
>>23977753Kill yourself negrobumper.
I've specifically seen Japanese fans refer to it as such, so at the very least it's a commonly held belief.>>23977809Four days is hardly a necro bump by /m/'s current speed.
What if the Elmeth had the Endymion Unit?
What if Mazinger was Getter?
>>23975117What if Mazinger was Transformer?

>>23971029I don't think Fred was said to have anything special to it, no? The most it has is its experimental miniature funnels.

>"t-tanks do the same job but better!"> tankoids fail to realize paratroopers physically cannot air-drop a 70-ton MBT without turning it into a kinetic lawn dart>remember Market Garden? 101st got completely bogged down at Son because the Germans blew the bridge and light infantry had zero heavy engineering assets>enter the air-droppable, multi-tool Combat Engineering Mech>manipulator arms mean it's a walking CEV that actually fits inside a standard cargo plane>can clear roadblocks, lift heavy debris, lay improvised bridge spans, and suppress ground targets on the way down>it's not competing with an Abrams, it's competing with paper-thin drop IFVs that get penned by heavy machine guns anyway>gives airborne troops immediate heavy engineering and mobile fire support where wheeled vehicles can't maneuver (dragons teeth, anti-tank obstacles, rivers...)Is the "airborne combat engineering vehicle" the most realistic justification for real-robot mechs in a modern day setting?
>>23971746>500kgSo its lifting capability is way less than 500kg thenWhat are you planning to carry with your engineering mech if it can only lift less than 500kg? Even if we ignore armor, the hardware to do REAL heavy lifting will add a lot of weight.The engineering variant of the Leopard 2 weighs 70 tons similarly to the MBT, and thats with lesser armor and the lack of a turret, gun, and the ammo for said gun.
>>23972245You were never going to do that anyway. At least in this timeline you can buy a military-grade drone setup for a thousand dollars on ebay and learn how to use it by playing videogames for a few weeks.
>>23972245You just see tons of fpv footage because it's common for them to have cameras on them, it's relatable, new and terrifying. Yes it has absolutely changed troop and light armored mechanized warfare but the prevailing meta for large scale warfare between somewhat matched nations hasn't changed all that much because of drones. Air superiority and artillery is still #1, that's what removes enemies from a the land. Troops and tanks then take and hold that land.The next asymmetric guerrilla conflict that a western nation enters may end up being radically different because of drones though.
>>23970976Pretty much this, although I do feel they'd also be capable of some infantry support moves. Those hands can do more than just lift and put things together, after all, so being able to put larger bullets downrange definitely wouldn't hurt.>>23971317>And if you're lifting something, you need mass to act as a counterweight so you don't fall over when you lift up a big rockIf you're going to need to move a rock, then there are ways to do so beyond just deadlifting it (like using an additional lever, stakes, or just widening its stance), and even then it's not like you'd just have one lifting it. Such machines are going to be more beneficial as handy-in-a-pinch rather than being a dedicated lifting machine, so you can expediently deploy a team or already have units on-site to lay that bridge and then switch to something else rather than sortieing an AVLB. If we go off Scopedog numbers, then 3, maybe 4, at most could be reasonably airdropped from a C-130 and would be enough to do that job. Probably, it depends on how unwieldy the parts are, but the numbers are there.>>23971836>it has no armour now so it'll never have armourEven then, it's not like airdroppable armour is particularly heavy. If they absolutely need such armour, then a dedicated vehicle or two could be dropped alongside them, never mind having reactive-armour or countermeasures like smoke or soft-APS. Also>what is kneeling?
>>23971746Any news about this?
>kids show>give the mom character an incredibly erotic body>hire the most alluring and sexually stimulating seiyuu to voice herWhat were they thinking?

>>23973811Only half of those are the same person, kid.
>>23812630>lipstick, but only on the top/bottom lipI hate it. Why do so many anime do this?
>>23812630>>What were they thinking?They were thinking of success obviously

>we have Brocken at home
>can tank beam shots>weak point is the giant target in the centerWhat were they thinking?
>>23967231>What were they thinking?"Damn that show evangelion is pretty good huh?"
>>23973098What?
>rips off your show >does it 100x betterheh, nothing personnel kid
>>23967797>>23968460Also saikyou (number) shito is what they refer to Zeruel as many times so it always seemed pretty clear to me that the 12th angel is probably just zeruel or an equivalent assigned a different numberI just looked at the evageeks crap again and wow that is some stupid shit they've been putting up there for years for stupid EOPs>"Rei breaks down": "breaks down" can also be "collapses" or "be defeated". "Vanish": "evaporate" or "disappear without explanation". 倒れる cannot mean any of that besides "collapses" and not in some retarded metaphysical way, it's the word used when someone falls sick and faints or something, jesus fucking christ these larping retards
>>23955641Its visual novel trash
Who was the best dollem and why was it Obligato?
>>23968472Nah, in that case it's clearly 12 angels. Another part of the proposal when it talks about the angels overall outright mentions there are 28 angels in total (including Adam, 27 without it, the proposal actually notes). The tv show had 17, but this is including Lilith, which wasn't meant to count (or exist maybe) originally. 16 + 12 = 28.This also likely became the basis for the mass production Evas in EoE. They just changed it to just a two way fight with humans vs humans rather than Nerv vs angels vs humans all at once.Also, grammatically, you'd usually have something like "第12" if you meant to say 12th angel not just 12 by itself. It could be read "strongest among the 12 angels" rather than "12 strongest angels". But there are more than 12 angels even in the proposal.
>>23977220>Also, grammatically, you'd usually have something like "第12" if you meant to say 12th angel not just 12 by itselfnot if you're writing shorthand in notesyou sound like the exact sort of undereducated yet overconfident EOP moron who filled the page with this sort of crap
COMBAT
>>23965366Sayla's VA did Geppelnitsch.
>>23969097I enjoyed it. And I could have saved her
I wish she wasn't replaced by an inferior girl. Her and Ota were funny together.
>>23970087And in today news an american ex-cop and suspected terrorist Kanuka Clancy was shot to death by the TSA after she openly declared she was in the airport for "combat"Preliminary details are scarce but this could have ended up in a mass shooting had our valiant heroes not intervened.On another news, the police shot the suspect's grandmother and alleged co-conspirator after she resisted arrest.
>>23964894Considering what Asuma put Noa through in the Sushiya no Goto novel that just came out, maybe being a robotfucker isn't so bad after all.
This may be one of the best Kazumi Fujita mechanical designs ever and still no translations around in english.Western steampunk mecha and no one cares... Sad...
>>23973943 i mean hey anon they got wares blade ported into english now, don't lose hope
>>23973943The raws make it look like your generic edgy 00s Manga.>Gun Driver>SteampunkIt's Gunpunk. The main exotic power source driving all non-precursor mechs is guns.
>>23974046>Generic edgy 00s mangaNot in a long shot
Since this is basically Kazumi Fujita thread, any chances the Chinese will make kit for Dinofaust? They made one for Tyrant Sword.
If she had been active in Zeta, would things have changed?
>>23974764She had mineva as her puppet as a semblance of legitimacy Not that it mattered because it was a decoy mineva for some fucking reason
>>23972877>Sayla is a woman, Char is a man. Different genders means different expectations. Lol no. The reason no one bothers Sayla is that almost no one knows her real identity as the Deikun daughter and she kept a low profile.Char did the opposite. He became famous and was known as the Red Comet.
>>23974811The problem with sayla is the entire OYW her job is to be a mysterious window into the politics of zeon and Char's psycheIronically so is haman so the sheer amount of overlap between the two and knowing the troubles between tomino. Sayla's VA, and the way sayla and haman are handled in MSG, Z/ZZ, and g cucks I wouldn't base my assumptions that "women can't lead" on what sayla can or can't doAnother thing is tomino is probably the least misogynist person out there because the only time women get the backhand is when they act emotionally and get punished for it, something the men in Gundam also getWomen being led by their feelings is a common trope though, and thats usually incidental to their downfall but>Cima>Emarywere leadersAnd >Emma>Matilda>MiraiWere competent mentorsGundam usually doesn't have women in leadership roles simply because there's usually a lot more men then women
>>23974811I was talking about the people that do know her identity.
>>23974167Why are Fa and Four dressed like they're still in their original continuity?
ITT: worst upgrades
>>23947606>there's speculation that the DairenOh suit was unusable at the time.Probably it got destroyed during MMPR season 3 shootings. I mean, after that the suit was never seen again and Hasbro auctioned the head few years ago.
>>23923953>>23923947>>23923931Holy seethe lmao
>>23926025GET OUT
>>23969172LelIt's such an insignificant upgrade that i didn't know it was technically a different machine when i watched the show. Hell, iirc, it didn't even do anything new or address anything about the original design, it literally was just a repaired layzner. >>23969516I actually don't like 2 that much, base layzner is that good.
>>23976106Literally what if Gundam Sandrock and Gundam Heavyarms had a kid
>AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
>>23968587What set?
>>23952465That a manga or a doujin?
