No? You should.

I have. It offered a good balance of worldbuilding and resolving character arcs.

A pity it hasn't gotten a BD release nor has it been in a Super Robot Wars game.

I tried to watch it a really long time ago but dropped it during the first episode because it was so boring

All in all it's a foundational title in the mecha musume genre but beyond that I found it unremarkable and rendered a neglected older sibling by Fumikane's later works.
Also I remember all the specials revolved around fishing which felt like a weird tangent. At least do an OVA or something.

>We could've had a future with more mecha musume in mechsuits, but instead got all this strike witch/FAG/megami device/AGA robot-amputee limbs like it's fucking Galidor bullshit instead
Fuck Japan

No, it's because there's far more variety in the designs for the cast in Strike Witches. Just compare the cast pic in your post to pic related and you get more variety in height, skin tone, attire, and more, and that's not even going into the personality of each character. And honestly it's just the faces, the lack of nose and how far apart the eyes are really kill the look of the Sky Girls cast when put side by side.. Hell even by 2007 mecha musume standards Sky Girls didn't look all that great, Busou Shinki was released right around the same time and the designs looked so much better too.

Humikane took all the shit he learned going from Sky Girls to Strike Witches and threw it into Girls und Panzer, which is a huge part of why GuP is still a big franchise in Japan more than 10 years after it originally aired.

so what you're saying is strike witches is the answer to "pants are for?"
how illuminating
>>
>>
>>22889017
I actually like the tone and setting a lot more than Strike Witches, even if the animation was worse.
>>
>>22915236
Worse how?
>>
>>22915250
Much stiffer, not as flashy. I did not like Strike Witches very much but it seemed to have more budget behind the animation.
>>
>>22915256
That's fair yeah, Sky Girls isn't too flashy.
>>
Here's a thought: how would this work in a Super Robot Wars game?
>>
>>22915459
They could go in the (non-existent) maho shoujo SRW style game.
>>
>>22898544
But what makes it fun?
>>
>>22917447
The characters.
>>
>>
>>22919652
Ok fair enough.

>>22923233
Hope you like it.
