The world needs more Patlabor.

We already have a thread. Besides, Patlaboring was never good.

for some reason my powerdoll bootlegs never had such good tights as that one above

It's a really good franchise, but I'd say they made plenty of it.
Even then, it's not like there was a drought of good sci-fi comedies and "girls with guns" anime back in it's day
>Bubblegum Crisis (+episode 2 of Crash)
>Gunsmith Cats
>Dirty Pair
>Tenamonya Voyagers (obscenely underappreciated)
>You're Under Arrest (kinda lame compared to the others, but funny enough that I don't care)
>haven't seen Tylor, but seems like the kinda thing I'd enjoy (especially as a big fan of Leiji Matsumoto)
That said, I'd totally be down for a Doom mod, even if all it did was to replace the status bar face with Noa or Ota.

Actual new stuff would be nice, not looking back and suddenly finding "new" old stuff.
>>
>>22820472
they should've made a CLAT spinoff show in the early 00s with Clancy as the main character
>>
>>22820505
>Actual new stuff would be nice
Space Battleship Tiramisu has a protagonist who clings to his cockpit because he finds his teammates too boorish, a pretty interesting extension upon Noa's fixation around Alphonse.

Bullbuster was fun when it didn't fall back on "lol bureaucracy", though I'll admit that I never watched past the 3rd episode.
Same goes for Dai-Guard.
>>
>>22820020
No it really doesn't, reboots and unnecessary sequels are always trash.
>>
>>22820020
I don't think we need more Patlabor specifically but we do need more stuff like it. Just like we need more stuff like GiTS, but please stop rebooting GiTS. I just miss the relatively mundane but charming characters and a style of sci-fi made by extrapolating real world tech instead of going balls to the wall space magic.

Whoever owns the IP knows Shirow doesn't give a shit and it's a cashcow that has yet to dry (Somehow) so I doubt that's gonna happen.

Kek. It was pretty boring though

fgsfds six fingers?

AU where Noa is a hardcore OL and needs more fingers to type faster.

is this a battle of the gargantuas reference? this episode already had alien baltan and an oxygen destroyer so i dont know
>>
>>22845639
damn really, it just seems like too much of a coincidence. whatever this ep was funny.

this mystery episode was funny. also the title is like ellery queen's Yの悲劇

Whatever happened to Goto's facial hair?

A doom patlabor mod? How’d that work or were you referring to something else?

why didn't they call her back for the second movie ?
>>
>>22861776
Because the second movie isn't a patlabor movie and has no robots in it.
>>
>>22861850
Except for the part with the robots and the title "Patlabor", of course.

she would have soloed Tsuge in the first 5mins
>>
>>22861776
Probably wouldn't be good with the optics/politics of the situation, unlike Babel, this one was a coup. Foreign interference would highly likely make more forces join the other side's cause.
That or she's busy with other stuff.

Finished the television series and halfway through new files, took my time with it too and I really have been liking this series a lot, got me a ton of laughs. Plus the announcement of EZY now being much more exciting to me than previously during my watchtrough, I can clearly see why this is a beloved franchise down there.
Also >>22861942 COMBAT
>>
>>22862917
And done with new files, great series, looking forward to EZY

Hi, I was the other stuff

>>22820026
>Pat-laboring

I don't get it bros
>>
Hell yeah, time to watch Patlabor. I've been putting it off for years, the Ingram looks so cool.
>OVA is a police comedy SOL with a robot as a mascot
>First movie is an biblically tinged environmental conspiracy with like 15 minutes worth of robots
Not exactly what I was expecting but I can't say I walked away from it disappointed at all.
>>
>>22877833
Just skip the second movie, it's not an actual Patlabor property
>>
>>
>>22878976
Yes it is.
>>
>>22878976
>Just skip to movie 3 and ignore the rest of the franchise
Fixed.
>>
>>22886363
Skip breathing drool.
>>
>>22886353
It's Patlabor in the same way the Halloween sequels are grounded horror movies, in which they aren't.
2 is a great movie but doesn't need any context from other Patlabor properties, in fact it stands on its own. It's completely different in tone and levity compared to the other installments.
>>
>>22886391
That has nothing to do with anything whatsoever.
>>
>>22886395
>no argument
>>
>>22886397
I agree,it was no argument to begin with.
>>
>>22886391
My own take would be that it’s a fantastic political thriller movie but an awful patlabor movie
>>
>>22886949
You said it succinctly. There are no comedic moments in 2 unlike the episodes and other movies.
>>
>>22887008
Patlabor isn't a comedy.
>>
>>22887011
Pedantry.
>>
>>22887011
Hey I had laughs from watching the television series and new files ova so that’s objectively wrong

I get laughs from the pianist, that doesn't make it a comedy.

Long ago there was an old image I came across that was basically a crossover pic between multiple series, in there had Noa and Leona bickering with each other while inside Alphonse and Bonaparte

This wasn't very good to be honest. What usually happens is that the series starts off being episodic before shifting into being more plot focused in the second half, but this was episodic the whole way through. I think the only major recurring plot thread was the Griffin stuff and even that was solved a third of the way through. The characters and their dynamics were charming, but not enough to carry almost 50 episodes of it.

Were they making this alongside the OVAs/movies and that's why they decided to be more episodic?
>>
>>22820020
Is Patlabor the new Zeta of /m/? I don't remember there being so much shilling previously.
>>
>>22906731

Are you really that retarded?

He was filtered by Patlabor so afraid so.

How does that happen?
