It's been a year since the gritty hard boiled grounded military anime Bang Brave Bang Bravern was announced with this promo art, what did you think of it? Did it live up to your expectations?
>>
>>22903812
Ending might have been slightly weak but it's still probably one of my favorite anime ever. Felt tailor made for me and it really was just fantastic save for a meh final episode.

Bravern has a marketing collab with Venom: The Last Dance. Somehow, this makes perfect sense.

>>22903877
Honestly it's a copout "lame" answer but I definitely would have just made it more "hot blooded"
Proper dai-gattai, some burning passion, and most importantly post credits wedding.
>>
>>22903977
I don't care about venom but it's hilarious that they found a parallel and went with it for marketing, and had Bravern's seiyuu sing too lol.
>>
>>22903812
2nd half dropped off so hard

I hope it gets licensed and distributed in the west only so all the supplemental materials are translated and in one place.

the complete setting material that was released
>https://cystore.com/products/4550621156069?_pos=83&_sid=f8aabb265&_ss=r
afaik has minimal text, i only saw the characters profile with their data like the official site so nothing new
I think Futabasha mook could be translated because has interviews that sum up things were said on magazines plus new trivia and bts
I know that Fubatasha made mooks of other mecha shows in the past, I remember I saw the MSG:Hathaway mook but was that translated?

Those would be nice but I was more thinking about all the chapters of Future Warrior Lulu and the epilogue novel.
>>
>>22905075
the future warrior lulu is atm free to read on HJ site (last episode should be uploaded this month??), so dunno if in the future they might release a book version. for the BD novel, since it comes with the BD content don't think it will be released out of it, the BD was expensive and you'd piss a lot of people doing that.
But looking at >>22904883 there are few stories that are based on the novel premise, but they are still understandable as stand-alone without reading it.
>>
>>22905135
>since it comes with the BD content don't think it will be released out of it
Obviously that’s correct. That’s the reason I said I want this to be licensed in the west, so we have an official English BD release (yes, with a dub too, but that could turn out good if there’s talented people doing it). I was assuming if there were such a release, they’d include other stuff that has come out up until now, such as the Lulu story.
>>

lmao, believable
let's hope the BD has reworked subtitles
>>
>>22905320
>>22905145
quality aside there's probably weird stuff with music rights in the way of making a dub since they'd have to dub the op/ed as well (they are "credited" to the characters)
>>
>>22906228
Would they have to dub the op and ed? I thought the whole point of doing that was that they didn't have to get actual licensed music for the show.
>>
>>22903977
The choice is completely understandable, I mean they also picked Kitaro movie for the same reason, but while Kitaro movie is back in the theaters for the director's cut, Bravern was a tv show and ended months ago...
I'm more surprised about this than anything else
>>
Thought it was a wonderful show. It mixed humor and genuine sincerity perfectly, with characters being slapstick prone but the threats and stakes being taken seriously. I liked pretty much every aspect of it, and thought it had a great ending with a lot of heart.

Probably the best (new / original) mecha show in years, short as it was.
>>
there seems to be a strange group of people who for some reason never registered any of the sexual content in bravern was supposed to be sexual (“someone couldnt possibly be attracted to men like this!) and then get angry when bravern does…sexy stuff in side contents

Like, did they have their eyes closed when Smith and Isami frotted?
>>
>>22906709
Is this some stupid twitter drama or what, because none of that ever happened here.

There is no need to copypaste that kind of thing here, since anons are not here for the drama or other shit
The only interesting thing in the second anthology, published by comic nora(gakken) is the fact that they want to emulate old magazines that featured doujinshi-like comedy and art, in fact anmedia used to have a supplemental issue called paromedia and comic nora had comic pocke
there few names in the artist list that were recognized as artist who published in those magazines back in the 90's

Some people out there are mean spirited, even in Japan when usually they seems to not give a fuck, and don't understand how working for a publisher works, don't trust obari enough.

The other day there was Rihiro Yamane x Obari talk, there are no summaries or explicit comments on what they talked about, more than one people went there and said that it was prohibited to disclose anything but
the only interesting tidbits worth of reporting here was that the scene of Smith's death by explosion was an homage to Daimajuu Gekitou Hagane no Oni last scene

from obari on his bsky account:
>This jacket was actually something that Smith had prepared for himself and then passed on to Lulu. That's why it's oversized
>The Brave Knights' captain's jacket and cap, plus the sunglasses from episode 1. If he had returned safely, the image of Captain Smith would have become a reality...

Split it into 2 episodes, because the mood swings are jarring and characters behave weird (Isami becoming a ragetard straight from grieving, Superbia dies and Lulu is back to normal too quickly even though she was wailing seconds before etc.).

Someone compiled a comparison with the other Bravern releases now that Takara Tomy's TOYRISE Bravern is on pre-order
A comment from the person who compiled this comparison
>If you pre-order the Takatomi version at Takara Tomy Mall by 13:00 on 11/11, you will receive a package art clear file (originally drawn by the director). If you don't need the clear file, AmiAmi has it at 20% off
>Good Smile Burn Dragon is a limited edition, so it may be difficult to get hold of it after its release. If you missed out on Burn Bravern, then you should definitely get the Takatomi version! I've never bought Good Smile's THE GATTAI series, but I have bought Takatomi's TF, so based on that, I think the Takatomi version is stronger. If you want to move it around a lot by transforming and combining, then I recommend the Takatomi version!
