No dub EVER. Deal with it.
>>23704739>Dubそして、貴重なものは何も失われなかった。
What did you like and dislike about the premiere?
>>23704739Is that supposed to be a problem?
It annoys the fuck out of me that crunchyroll is floating a "put dubs only in theaters lol" now. They are doing it with Zombie Land And I guess a release of Fruits Baskets Prelude.
>>23704764I dislike how little it's being promoted internationally. Barely anything. Guess the average anime fan just wants fetish slop.
>Magical armor = /m/????Can I post about Card Captor Sakura here too?

>>23704739Good. I want it Jap.
>>23705923now that I think about it Sakura's not very apt, her outfits are specifically mundanepart of her gimmick is that her magic powers don't have anything to do with her clothes, the clothes are made (and forced on her) by her friend so she wears different weird frufru dresses all the time instead of the usual one single Combat Cheerleading Bridal Whore outfit all the time (plus mode changes)

>>23705923Precure is /m/
>>23704739More like difficult to dub, but still. Remember, Graz originally had the licensing for the dub, and while the legacy cast needs to keep their dub names, the rest can keep their original names, though they could make nonsensical dub names for like three of the armors when the two who had a barely changed dub name (Shakunetsu = Heat, Kouya = Wilderness), since the names of the other three are plain and lame. Suiren could be renamed the Armor of Waves or Currents, Senko could be renamed the Armor of Flash, and Sokyuu could be renamed Armor of Celestia.

No subs for episode 2...
>>23708331Just wait for Crunchyroll to pick it up like before, OP trying to "own the dubfags" but should be lucky this is even getting subs to begin with.
>>23708054To be completely honest, I would rather they take their time if they decide to dub it, so they can do it right. Believe it or not, Samrai Troppers got very big when it was named Ronin Warriors because before that, it was just Samurai Saint Seiya. Sure, it's great on its own merits, but outside of the West, Samrai Troopers can never get past Saint Seiya's shadow. >>23707839>Precure is /m/Remember when Precure had a giant robot episode made by Obrai? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5Ub8hdby6TM
>>23708346Maybe. Or it's just in Latin America, Europe, and Japan that Saint Seiya is more popular. While it is and will always be a legendary masterpiece, more people are invested in Samurai Troopers because the nostalgia hits harder.Say, how do you headcanon the existence of Hariel? Me personally, I say Hariel is the actual name of the Ancient One in the English dub (otherwise, he's simply Kaos, and we don't know him much other than he forged the Nine Armors from Arago's original armor and that he has a descendant, Lady Kayura, who we don't know if she's still alive or not after a new demon usurper, Ramaga, turned the place into a chaotic mess). Could also connect the Ancient One with the Armor of Inferno, which is the ultimate power in the story anyway, and whether or not we will see it again redesigned for Shin Den or keep the design as-is because it's a sequel.
>>23705923Depends on if it's fun like this or shit like Infinite Stratos.
>>23708352That's also true, keep in mind, I don't think Samurai Troopers don't have huge place in Japan's fandom, just I always pictured it as an ironic twist of fate, as Knights of the Zodiac never stuck in the US for various reasons. >Say, how do you headcanon the existence of Hariel?desu they could just not bring up Hariel since he wasn't mentioned at all in the OVAs, as much as I love the EN version, I can memory hole that lore of Inferno since it only exist as an excuse for toy branding when they were brought to the states, which is even more of a mystery since Ryos name was still in the toy box.
So is everyone supposed to overlook Gai being a demon that randomly killed innocent people? The OG team wouldn't tolerate him.
Protect his smile, anons.
>>23708366Shuten/Anubs was a demon who killed many, who also used women and children as bait, and he was forgiven.>>23708367Rip, he was too good for this world.
>>23708369We all witnessed his redemption and what he went through. If they do the same with Gai, then I'll be cool with that, but knowing Bandai... I have my doubts.
>>23706158>manletWait, Gai is actually a shortie?
>>23708370I mean, we're only two episodes in to know for sure that they have in store for Gai, all we know for sure is the poster by Troppers they had outside of Musashi, where all assholes that got what was coming. >>23708377Reposting sheet, but he's pretty standard height, Musashi is the smol one of the bunch.
>>23708393Also, reposing relationship chart, featuring spoilers.

>>23704739Ronin Warriors?
>>23708456Yep, a direct sequel 30+ years later.
>>23708307I feel the powah
>>23708235KILL YOUR GRAMMY, NOW!
https://nyaa.si/view/2063832How was the 2nd episode?
>>23708396Kinda mad that this pretty much spoils that Ryusei is probably gonna bite it soon.
>>23709035Pretty good, the murderhobo is a funnier guy than I thought.
>>23709157What? How?
>>23709164Shown in the opening as the Green Warrior, but clearly has a replacement lined up. Talks about how the armor puts strain on him, and how he's basically too old to be a Samurai Trooper. Ryu's probably gonna bite it before the second opening.Red Flags see >>23708367
>>23709425The ending clearly shows the death flags than the opening. The opening can easily replace all of Ryusei's shots with Shion's, though the crying fit will be completely different, like him punching a mirror. Some of the shots on the ending can have minor changes, which shows when Shion is part on many group shots, and have less parts to replace.
So, among the main Ronins for the new series, who is your favorite? While I may yet judge, Shion could be my personal favorite for being the cool guy of the five. I won't say much if you choose Gai, as someone is starting to see him as someone who can fit in well in Symphogear due to his love for singing while fighting (he is yet to sing while in full armor, though), and honestly, they could be like a gender-flipped version of the Symphogear cast if you squint too hard due to their potential for singing (Gai just loves anything Showa, Kaito loves his rock and roll, and Musashi and Yamato's ideal hero also has opportunities for singing, though we're not sure about Shion and Ryusei's tastes for songs for now).
emblem
no emblem
>>23709493
>>23709494
>>23709492>>23709493>>23709494>>23709497At first, I was going to say it was odd for Shion to not have an emblem on his armor, but then I realized none of the Ronin/Troppers have them, and Ryusei is the odd one of the bunch.
>>23709493According to the leaks, the emblem disappears when Shion wears that armor. It's because that's the leaders emblem. Maybe Shion doesn't want to encroach on Ryusei's legacy?
>>23709553Does that mean Kaito might become leader? Only one with a visible position for the emblem aside from Shion.
>>23709565Nah they all have places for emblems. Look at helmets of the other three. There's some sort of circle.
>>23705923Samurai Trooper is getting a gunpla, which makes it /m/-related.
>>23708307https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aw45Q_mr0_MSo the full version's still pretty short a song.
>>23709568That looks a lot smaller, like they're missing some ornament, but you're probably right that the emblem spot doesn't matter.
>>23709450Kaito for now, just because I like his style and he is being voiced by Enoki Junya. My actual fav is Ryusei but it seems like he's not a permanent main 5 character
>>23709579>is getting a gunplano it doesn't
>>23708396>Jun grew up into an overweight NEET and sold White BlazeWhat the fuck
>>23709579The 30MF looks so good compared to the Tspark, how did Takara fuck up so bad.
>>23709955Making the proportions similar to the old spring-loaded figures, perhaps? Again, the 1988 Takara figures were imported by Playmates in 1995, and all of them are almost 1/1 in transfer except for Dais (who became purple because pink is for girls) and the White Inferno (which replaces the plain blue chest spot with one bearing a dragon pattern inside). The wide chest and tiny head is only supposed to match the proportions of the old figures.
>>23708346>Saint seiyaClinging to a glory from 40 years ago.Pathetic.
>>23710006What's the cling about? I prefer Ronin Warriors, but fact is the rest of the world cares for Knights of the Zodiac more than it.
>>23704764>>23705923they look mecha style... if you can't see the appeal you really don't belong here lol
>>23710022And one more interesting move: It appeared in Brave Saga: New Astaria. That Game Boy Color game filled to the brim with /m/, and they are the only human-sized characters among the mecha.
>>23710015iirc Transformer had some gear that was Saint-ish, and Psycho Clown had a mask that was half Seiya
>>23710006
>>23710031Masterforce is a little Saint Seiya-ish now that I think about it. Not quite enough yaoi bait to fit the profile though.
>>23710358Can this franchise not be gay for two minutes
>>23710363In this day and age?
If you told me last year that a Ronin Warriors sequel with painstakingly researched fujobait designs and a glossy kodomo toy commercial anime artstyle would have some of the best production values for a modern day anime in the current state of the industry, I would NOT believe you.Like sure it’s Sunrise, but this shit really came out of nowhere
https://youtu.be/k2jX9-pVJoU?si=YmnC9xaMqDkYcYu3Kaito teaser>>23710358Fuck off with the AI. Sure, I know you mean much with this, but this freak of nature is clearly AI.
>>23710006Ok Salvatore
>>23710503>Cool smart one is actually a dorkwon't get tired of this troupe. What's that he's watching at the end, a genderbend version of samurai troopers?
>>23710393Here's the thing though. I don't think the new characters' designs are meant to attract fujoshi, I think it's to attract children. Sure, it's not a show that's aimed at them, but that hasn't stopped kids from being attracted to bright colorful designs like you'd see in Inazuma Eleven or Digimon.And most of the fujo fans I've seen have said they dislike the designs because the boys aren't conventionally handsome like the originals.
>>23710520I think Kaito is watching some kind of stage play with idols? Like Love Live School Idol Musical
>>23710524so he's an idolfag too, can't wait for Gai to find out and bully him relentlessly over it
>>23709492>>23709493>>23709494>>23709497>>23709542>>23709553Say, considering how they would be leaderless after Ryusei hands over the armor to Shion one way or another, do you think they will truly live up to the Ronin Warriors name for official localizations? Otherwise, everyone could regain the armors' actual emblems by the time they get stronger over time (the Sanada clan emblem on the back of the Heat Armor around where the swords are sheathed, the lightning bolt symbol on the shoulders of the Flash Armor where the leader's mark was when Ryusei wore it, etc.). I could also assume they would add those emblems somewhere as 3D jewel stickers in a future 30MF release, whether or not they will release the classic armors that we're sure will be jewel stickers for the emblems instead of flat foil ones.
