I remember watching some of G Reco a few years ago and not liking it. Production feeling super cheap was my main complaint, besides the editing feeling nonsensical.

I still love the designs and am a huge fan of Yoshida and Yasuda.
Would you say the movies are worth watching? Or do they suffer the same faults?
>>
>>22883368
>Production feeling super cheap was my main complaint,

Were you stupid or just retarded? Because while you can say things about reco looking cheap is certainly not one of them.
>>
>>22883368
The movies are almost 1-to-1 with the series with only a handful of new scenes and a couple slight adjustments here and there. If you didn't like it before then the movies will do nothing to change that.

Because he's so consumed with his people's history and his own sense of inferiority because of it that he lashes out at anyone who has an easier time of things.

>>22890300
After 0079 Tomino realized people missed the point and thought Char was cool so he set out to make every single rival character either a complete unquestionable loser or a polar opposite of Char. Mask is in the former category, but in fairness a lot of it is due to being radicalized by Kumpa to serve as his attack dog.
In many ways Mask reflects G-Reco's main themes even more than Bellri, here's a nice analysis
https://gshelf.wordpress.com/2017/05/19/a-story-about-stories/
>>
>>22890300
He's someone who was part of a historically oppressed group of people, who while nowadays they face no significant barriers to their life pathways but who place massive weight on most interactions they have with society and others on his ancestors having been oppressed. Even though nobody currently alive even was participating in said oppression and the entire world has moved on if not for people within that class hammering in on how it is such a great injustice that they're still harmed by it and even if they hold some of the most prestigious positions in the world and their group status is never brought up in any significant capacity still believe they're being actively oppressed.

I don't get people who don't want Char to be a loser. Char is such character that being a bit of a loser is literally the main point, it's what makes him so human and that's the case with many Tomino characters. It makes the story a lot more real.
>>
>>22890360
Well like most things, people miss the point completely. They see a mask, a custom MS and him being called an ace and that's enough.

I think the stuff that ultimately makes Char a loser most people find amusing instead of disappointing so it doesn't really detract from their perception of him

The funniest thing is that many of the fellow loser Char clones do a lot of things Char also did, but they gets shit for it while Char gets away.
It's like that "Hello, Human Resources?!" meme.

>>22901964
Outside of putting the Gundam title, Tomino pretty much had full freedom for Greco. He is highly respected of the current Sunrise main executives since they either were former staff of him or were people who grew up with his shows.

So Tomino can pretty much do what he want beside a few marketing things. There’s a reason his next (final?) show will still be at Sunrise

metal robot damashii are roughly 1/144 scale premade figures with metal joints and a more premium surface finish than MG/RG, they cost in the ballpark of $150 to 200 USD give or take?

"Is this the G-Self?" It's a design called the Reconguista from 2008, which is when Turn A Space was being conceptualized

The movies are pretty straight forward.
>>
>>22920019
No less turbo-boosted than the original show, though.
I'm watching this, and they go from a failed feint, to a failed negotiation, to Luin and Rockpie teleporting back from the negotiation to their fleets to shoot each other while it still takes Aina and company a while to rendezvous with the Megafauna during that shootout.
>>
>>22920018
Turn-A Space? Just the idea that Tomino would be doing another show somewhat in the vein of Turn-A? Or was it meant to have more direct connections to Turn-A at some point?
>>
>>22920049
It was a sequel to Turn A covering a budding conflict across the Earth sphere. It was also supposedly meant to try and connect Tomino's other worlds to Gundam. Akiman tweeted about a plot after Turn A's ending, which was probably about Turn A Space.

https://x.com/akiman7/status/1619969086406131712
>Before her death, Lady Diana seemed to be doing well for a year, and at that time, Roland received a message from the moon about a conflict that was occurring over the Mountain Cycle that was discovered on the continent of Gallia. I think it would be fine for Lady Diana to work in secret for that one year in Gallia, without coming to the public's attention.

Gallia is a region from Turn A implied to be europe, since Gallia was a real word name for Gaul. It's pretty likely that the Ameria-Gondwan war that's mentioned in passing is a reference to the original Turn A Space plot.

In G-Reco, Gondwan is a nation to the east of Ameria (America), directly over the ocean, so it's implied to be a western european nation, meaning it would be in Gallia. Considering there was a Gundam called the Reconguista during Turn A Space's planning it's pretty likely the conflict with Towasanga/Moon-race was also from Turn A Space. IIRC the Crescent Moon ship is also a directly recycled design from Turn A Space's concept phase, so maybe the Venus Globe plotline is also recycled from Turn A Space. Based on what little we know about Turn A Space it seems like G-Reco was Tomino's attempt to revive or reuse some of the plot, concepts, and even the staff he wanted for Turn A Space.

Maybe in some alternate universe Loran is fighting in Europe while Bellri and co are fighting in South America over the Capital Tower.

After the 1 hour mark, the 3rd recap movie gets extremely sporadic and bizarre, mostly just idiots yelling at each other not to damage each other's motherships because they're scared the Hermes Foundation will withold supplies from them.

>>22920650
It's the Venus Globe foundation that started the Ag tech taboo and photon battery delivery/embargo system. It was founded on Towasanga and the Rayhunton family was a big supporter of it until the Dorette family wiped them out for imposing limits on Towasanga as well as Earth, since Dorette wanted to use their superior technology to conquer the planet and settle down there. It's implied it was founded before humanity's collapse at the end of UC since they maintain the Rose of Hermes, a database from UC that holds all of sorts UC technology, even the Moonlight Butterfly, according to Tomino and Akiman since they said the G-Lucifer has the moonlight butterfly.

The website is helpful
http://www.g-reco.net/glossary/

>Hermes Foundation
>An organization that has a monopoly on the production and supply of photon batteries.
Founded long ago in Towasanga, it is currently based in Venus Globe, an orbital planet near Venus.
The photon batteries it produces are transported to Earth via Towasanga by Cassiba Mikoshi and Crescent Ships.

>Rayhunton family
>A noble family with a long history in Towasanga. A family that has protected science and technology since the Universal Century, it had deep ties with the Hermes Foundation and Venus Globe.
It disappeared from the stage of history due to a coup d'état by the Dorette family, who were in charge of military affairs.
>>
>>22920886
When was that glossary first published anyway? 2016?
Or is this like FF13 and they updated that as the show was running, taking direct reference from Tomino's notes about Jewish conspiracies and exterminating anyone older than 19?

Man, this show needs Maechen from FF10 to explain all this backstory.

Definition of actual design diversity done extremely right, look at the range of insane design work going on here.

Who gives a fuck what someone's skin color is if we can't have 7 eyes, golden plating, electronic panels and helmets the shapes of magnets and sharks?
>>
>>22923915
the sheer irony of this when talking about Tomino's work
>>
>>22923915
I mean Tomino works are extremely diverse with skin colors too, especially CCA.
>>
>>22923915
>>22924012
I meant "especially post CCA"*
Tomino outright said he believes the world will be more and more diverse as times ago. One of His daughter marrying with someone not from Japan probably had an effect too. (Tomino is a very strange individual with many issues, but he apparently always was a very good father )
>>
>>22924013
even before CCA, really. He wanted Ryu to be black but apparently execs considered that worse than latino so he had to change. And with Victory he remarked how nice it was that it he made a pretty big part of the cast black and nobody batted an eye.
>>
>>22924015
It's strange how so many people complain about "modern anime wanting to be diverse" when they are in fact, far far less diverse than anime in the 80s/90s, especially Sci-fi/Mecha shows.

And there's like 10 times more anime produced now than back then
>>
>>22924017
Modern media frame things this way to try and create an image of a fantastical perfect society where some people (who just happen to be the target audience) lived the high life and that any perceived problems only sprang up recently to drum up support for causes that use these issues as a springboard for other projects that would not garner public support if they received too much attention.
>>
Watched episodes 15 and 16.
Man, they straight-up say that the G-Self is called YG-111, that Raraiya was sent by the Rayhunton House to scout Earth and maybe find the heirs, that the house built the G-Self from a rejected Dorette Fleet design, and that the Rayhunton family fell from grace because they supported Venus Globe's monopolization of Photon Battery, air and water ball production.
If any of this was in the recap movies, I didn't notice it.
>>
>>22924017
Old stuff new how to be diverse in a way that was, for want of a better term, "normalized." That is to say the diversity was there, it just didn't feel the need to insist on itself because the audience has goddamn eyes. In any case you didn't pay it much attention either way which is really how it should be. Nowadays "writers" (whom I only call so in a show of extreme generosity) have so little understand of subtlety and nuance that they think the only way to be at all diverse is to call constant attention to it so characters are less interesting and frankly annoying.

Raraiya wasn't directly sent by the Rayhunton supporters, rather she was secretly working for them while in the scouting corps. She got her hands on the G-Self because the army considered it just a reject that wasn't special, but that was because the G-self can only reveal its true performance when someone with Rayhunton biometrics uses it. So it's more like the loyalists snuck the G-Self into the military tests so they could have one of their spies, Raraiya, get her hands on it to go to earth to deliver it to any potential Rayhunton survivors.
>>
Watched episode 17.
Okay, this is a little clearer. Everybody still briefly gets into a fight, but it's because the Amerians were paranoid about Towasangans touching the Megafauna and G-Self, Luin and Barara being firebrands, and Raraiya fumbling in piloting a Neodu. Then Rockpie goes "You idiots! If anyone damages the Kashiba Mikoshi, we'll lose hot water and electricity privileges!" and everyone goes and does their chores together.
Then Cap Colonel Cumpa comes aboard the Megafauna to talk to Retainer Whatshisface and let the audience know he apparently delivered the MCs to Earth for the house while having his own interest in building up Earth's tech and military in defiance of the Taboo. Aida takes all this episode's drama in and decides "Maybe we should go have a chat with the Hermes Foundation if they're a big source of these issues. Set course for the Crescent Ship!".

Still no explanation for when Ringo got a crush on Raraiya, though.
>>

Given the events of episode 19 and 20, it seems more like the G-Self won't work at all unless the Rayhuntons are piloting it, and Raraiya is an exception they programmed in. That or everybody from Venus Globe has no idea how to operate mechs with abnormal control schemes.

Kinda? I still needed a guide and help from other anons to figure out stuff like why the Kashiba Mikoshi matters (which is neither told nor shown by the show, and is especially annoying when it's redundant with the Crescent Ship), that the Hermes Foundation and Venus Globe are synonyms for the same society, and what the Taboo or Rose of Hermes is supposed to be. There were points where I had to check back and forth between TV and compilation for details like "Venus Globe also supplies air and water balls". What's probably the most damning is how a lot of my comprehension of this show is based on memories of very similar content in Turn A - the Reconguista Plan just being Operation Homecoming and several character types just being recycled from that show. Plus the constant self-reminders I needed to take about Tomino being a crazy hippie. I wonder where all the really great writers from Turn A went after that show was over...

im watching movies alongside the tv episodes now (end of movie 2 and ep10 rn) and the movies are fucking nonsensical. They omit so many scenes you end up with the characters just randomly doing things for no reason, then I switch to the TV version and it's properly explained that they're going to place X to do Y. Parts of fights are also cut turning encounters into nonsense (though this happens vice versa too, at least in one occassion when movies added animation for g-self shield bashing that was missing, not as bad as the movies though)
