Reiji, because it's the same character, but can fight supernatural enemies without a mech.

Maybe in his prime, but there is nothing cool in his actual appearance in ZOE.

Sonny, if you don't think any of that is cool then you need to learn a thing or two about coolness. And it sure as shit isn't swinging around a mall katana rack while cosplaying as your better so often you fell into a close hamper. You capice you two toned nit wit.

I'm tempted to put Gladion instead given his true origins. Also, any main Brave robot is automatically the coolest /m/ain character if we're not sticking to human-looking characters.

If you can't make new animations just reuse the old ones.
They straight up put 10 years old anime clips into the attacks, you can't get any lazier than that, just use old sprites holy shit.

Manga/2014 Ryoma wouldn't be sitting in a fucking jail for 10 years for a crime he didn't commit. Fuck he would break out even if he DID commit the crime. Fuck the authorities!
Armageddon Ryoma is a pussy.

Real Man Ryoma wears highlighter neon yellow-green scarf, so enemies would see him even at night.

Armageddon Ryoma wasn't in jail for 10 years you tit. Genki was still a kid when he got out he was probably there for a year tops. The 10 year gap was post bomb. You're an idiot.

Old men are not cool. They are lame. Always were, always will be.
They can only serve as mentor/villain archetype, if you make old man the protagonist, you fail.
Only old men can think that granpa can be anything else other than a supporting role.

00 is one of the most insufferable works of animation I’ve ever forced myself to endure. The character designs are already dated, the mechanical design is excessive and overcomplicated, the feeling of the setting is dull, and the philosophy is insipid

Be old and hipster somewhere else, gramps. 00 1st season is pure art, 2nd season is meh but still better than any gundam show since then.

>For a supposed king of braves Guy's a bitch nigga.

The technology in his cyborg body is shoddier than Robocop's, and he spends most of his time outside combat in a hospital gown eating through a straw. GaoGaiGar itself is likewise a deathtrap that's nearly killed him multiple times just from the recoil of combining or using its weapons.

This isn't just brushed over, it's clear that he knows how much this all sucks. But instead of cursing his fate he takes his second chance at life as a blessing, and as a chance to save the lives of others.

Courage is not the absence of fear.
