Overman King Gainer:>fun characters>great fight scenes and good mech designs>a lot more good episodes than bad ones>sometime confusing and not properly explained lore >very rushed ending but not outrageous bad Why wasn't this more popular?
I went to a Fukuyama concert in Japan and when he did the King Gainer OP the entire hall started doing the monkey while singing along.
>>23830600Prob because it didn't air on TV in the west and a certain fandom drowning any other mecha out.
>>23830600quality, rarely has anything to do with popularity.
>>23831080Other way around.
>>23830600I'll turn this around on you OP: how many anime series out there with equal or greater quality did you not even bother with because Tomino wasn't involved? Because, let's face it, none of the factors you've listed are anything special and the only unique selling point it has is that the Gundam guy made it.
>>23832086If OP didn't bother with them, how on earth could he possibly know they were of comparable quality?Instead of trying to start arguments about directors, why not mention some shows you think should've gotten more notice? Or go watch King Gainer. It's pretty good.
>>23830600Anyone here has this song in flac? I cant find it.
>>23832086>>23832110The only show that I've seen that hits a similar vibe is Turn A Gundam (also Tomino) and Mars Daybreak. And most of the staff for the latter also worked on this show and Turn A.
