Watching Space Battleship Yamato.The fansubs keep coming in with these weird factoids in the credits. I wonder if these two things are connected and they're why Tomino got chucked from the production?
>>23871929Tomino was chucked for trying to tinker some things from the script in the storyboard phase.
>>23871929Are we supposed to believe this is some kind of magic fighter jet? I sure hope someone got fired for that blunder.
Man, predictions were wildly off before we started sending probes out.
Tomino disliked the script, so he changed it, and got booted. He also hated Yamato overall, and especially Yoshinobu Nishizaki (as did almost everyone that worked with him)I recommend looking into Nishizaki, the dude was wild, and possibly on drugs during production
>>23871956Are you retarded?
>>23871965No.
never got into Yamato since there's no big robots is it any good
>>23871970It has to be, if so many seasonal normies thought 2199 was so good.
>>23871964Wait, is that why he wanted to make his own Yamato story with Himiko?
>>23871964>I recommend looking into NishizakiLOL he was a fucking survivalist wingnut
Man this episode is just raping science without remorse.
>>23871969Am I being rused?
>>23871964>Tomino disliked the script, so he changed it, and got booted. He also hated Yamato overallWhat a faggot.
>>23871977No. Fucking retard.>>23872024OP is the friendless zoomer that's been spamming /srwg/ for the last couple days.
>>23872024Yes. ~11 times Earth in radius/diameter is entirely correct.>>23871929The credit facts are great and something I looked forward to with every episode.
>>23872066Chill out I was just speculating>>23872061I mean I don’t think he outright hates the series especially the homages it had in his later works, perhaps maybe he felt it was too glorifying about the past while his personal views are about mankind moving forward and of course “UNDERSTANDING.” SBY just wasn’t for him
>>23872024Oh. Guess I'm retarded after all.
>>23872070>especially the homages it had in his later worksWe sure stuff like that wasn't Yas's work instead? He worked on Yamato as well as Zambot and '79, after all.
>>23872092It's okay, the Pluto episode has some genuine outdated science. Though I think that bit of science makes for a better overall story than how 2199 handles it
Cryo-frozen plant life. I wonder if this was Yas.
I'm just amused by the detail of a capain's seat that goes up instead of down.
There's a dated fact. It's not even as big as Earth's moon, which IIRC is a third the size of Earth.
Though honestly I don't know why I'm even noting it. Pointing at inaccuracies about Pluto is like calling a retard stupid.
>>23872937You are a pseud.
>>23872939A what?
Uh-oh.
Wonder if this was part of the reason for crippling beams underwater in SRW, coupled with ZZ Gundam's whole thing about lasers refracting off seafoam.
Well okay then
>>23873021Huh? Beams being weak underwater in SRW is due to UC Gundam.
And here I thought the artificial gravity on the Yamato was just strong enough to maintain everyone being upright even when upside-down underwater.
Man, things were weird before the Kuiper Belt theory was approved.
A protective barrier of clumped asteroids. Pretty neat.
>>23873060One of the original plans before Matsumoto got brought over was a spaceship mostly covered inside an asteroid all the time, Asteroid Ship Icarus
>>23873098Didn’t know they went as far as making concept art of this idea
No family left to give a message to, so Kodai goes and drinks sake with the equally lonely captain.
A whole episode with no action. Guess that's why the Previously On segment was so long.Man, I wonder how many shows had to lie in their credits like this to save resources.
>>23873047>>23873021Beams are weak underwater in SRW and Yamato BECAUSE BEAMS ARE WEAK UNDERWATER! Water fucks with the way light works!
In-motion course correction. Wonder why they bothered making them blue at all.
So this is why Zeta didn't bother to explain dummy balloons until partway through ZZ.
>>23873308What the fuck is there to explain you fucking sperg.
Susumu, you're an idiot.
>>23873587He's half right right about that other thing though
Skirting Alpha Centauri as the only unimpeded route to evade an energy creature while the captain suffers from radiation sickness. That's an impressive scenario the show's concocted.
Oh, I guess it's not Alpha Centauri.
>>23873599They say it's Alpha in the episode; are you speed-watching?
>>23873673>12 episodes in 24 hours What do you think?
>>23873673>He says Alpha>You go NUH UH IT'S ALPHAI'm not sure I understand what you're yelling at him for. I'm not sure you understand what you're yelling at him for. Are you speed posting?
>>23871948Elaborate.
They're treating a live prisoner like a grape in surgery. Not even bothering to strap him down.
Crashing trying to launch
Dumbass machismo
You could fly a plane into that mouth.
Cosmic feminine giving encouragement to the struggling crew.
>>23874423Japanese masculinity sabotages the success of everyone. Many such cases.
>>23873907They specifically say it's Alpha of Orion in the conversation about the Praying Star
A show made in 1974 writing a scene of a working woman making an HR complaint.This will not go well.
Bugs in the wall
Is this what the children who were raised on reaction channels find amusing?
Analyzer doesn't have a face, Yuki.
Meta.
The same kind of fakeout scene Mazingetter would use for starting an episode, but instead it's how they come back after commercials.
>>23874444They really made people a bit more sensible in the remake. Like I'm all for nobility and sacrifice and that kind of thing but this is just retarded so when they dress it up as him staying behind to cover the others escape instead of being a moron it hits a bit harder.
>>23874733Given how Yamato is frequently called Japanese propaganda, I think it's actually shocking how one of the first scenes we get is our main protagonist deciding to flee and live rather than follow bushido and die like Mamoru.
Sanada goes on this weird tangent about becoming a scientist because he killed his sister by being reckless on a roller coaster. A roller coaster whose cars were controlled like bumper cars and for some reason had more than one car going at a time.
He says this right after revealing that his arms and legs are artificial replacements for when he lost his real ones in the accident.
And for the finisher, Sanada gets bizarrely fatalistic and martyr-y about sticking around to detonate the limbs, even though Susumu could've stuck around and kept him tethered to the seamless plane after pulling the trigger.I'm impressed they were allowed to depict any kind of limblessness, though.
>>23874738Far be it from my American ass to point the finger at anyone else's sense of jingoism but it's a special kind of funny when Japan does it. And how there's nothing more noble than a Japanese sailor.
>>23874733Ah, recall anon the great and mighty Admiral Fukkyu Niggah.
First wig-out.Recently my wrist has been hurting whenever I put weight on it, and sometimes whenever I move it at all. I really hope that's not a sign of anything serious that needs surgery.
Wonder how old of a trope villains doing falconry is.
Well ain't that clever. No mind control or spies, just letting the Yamato contact Earth with their own technology and just waiting for discipline to collapse.
Halfway point ~112 days in.
Same judgment as your typical mecha villain would make, but a much different attitude.
Almost a whole fleet destroyed by setting one specialty missile in reverse.
>>23873304
>>23876363If he was green he would die
>>23875557it's not "villains" doing falconry. it's noble people doing falconry. and it's as old as falconry. domel is clearly a sympathetic character. this shows he's refined and cultured and not just a brutish soldier. It's also a reference to Harlock.
>>23876379I'm remembering God Sigma from 6 years after this and how Gagarn first started with an alien vulture by his side.
Feels like the kind of shot that'd get a bunch of homages in other anime.
>>23873098man that would have been hilarious from a merchandising standpoint if that had made it to the final product, like all the jokes about Rock Lords but it doesn't even transform
Desler gets intense when he's in command.
Very intense.
Everybody dead
Oh this is some bullshit.
Wish I had a clean clip of Liquid Snake going "It's not over yet!".
Guess that clears up a few things.
https://youtube.com/watch?v=cI2JpMCpl3I&t=432s
Sanada just got sick of the GM's shit and flipped the board over.
I knew they wouldn't have the guts to kill Yuki off. Well, that's the first show finished. Now to figure out what's next and what it's called.
Farewell isn't on any of the pirate sites. I'll have to wait until I'm back home tomorrow to watch it.
>>23874317>like a grape in surgeryWhat does that even mean?
>>23874608Meta how?
>>23876410Because the contemporary internet didn't exist back then.
>>23876925The remake version is SLIGHTLY less retarded.
Watching the movie cut.I guess they called the hypothetical tenth planet "Minerva". If the show mentioned it, it wasn't in the subtitles.
>>23878459Yeah, in the tv anime, the 3 extra planets were always referenced by numbers.
And that's the movie cut done.
>>23878459Who's Minerva?
>>23879237Roman version of Athena
>>23874733See, I think Mamoru doing the dumbass thing is more important to the actual themes of the show, but explaining how is some major spoilers.
Started Farewell.The torrent I found was pretty bad video quality, though.
I took way too much effort trying to screencap this exact shot for the sub timing when I should have just told the subs to delay for a half second.
Treating a warship like a symbol of peace.
Would I care about stuff like this so much if I didn't know beforehand this show was called propaganda?
Eh, why not.
*your
You're a dick, Susumu.
Remembering Treasure Planet for the first time in forever.
Just merging both varieties of space fighter planes.
Space infantry that get called space cavalry
And they're immediately getting stomped because the enemy has tanks. Oof.
Guess the "Comet Empire" name that I saw Star Blazers uses on ANN is just about correct.
Science is still a foreign concept to this show.

Hey, that was Domel's trick, not Desler's.
It's amusing how the Desler Cannon exists to be humiliated every time it's used.
For me the highlights were >The bug episode>The fight with Lysis>The endingthe rest of the show is pretty mediocre
The cavalry are boarding a battleship in open deep space, and you're worried they might not have a field medic?
Oh irony.
https://youtu.be/jdTvJLVn5Xg?t=21This movie is just one big Greatest Hits album of the original show.
Okay this is just a cheap shot.
>>23880227It's a very Japanese kind of peace.
Oh, I guess she survived. Still a cheap move to do that just to bring Desler's out just that bit closer to the original show's.
WaMo Gun if it was a spreadshot.
https://youtu.be/eG82ruvH0jc?t=631Posted this in the wrong thread by mistake.
This show needs to stop putting Yuki in mortal peril. It's just obnoxious at this point.
It's like the show heard me call its bluff and started putting everyone else in mortal peril as retaliation.
Man is this a downer.
That's a really colorful fireworks display.
The White Comet is like a JRPG final boss at this point.
Maybe don't talk about soft-hearted virtues as your justification for deranged militaristic zeal.
And now he's seeing ghosts that tell him the greatest weapon is to give his life.
Why didn't you just do this earlier if you were going to offer anyway
BANZAIIIIIIIIIIIIIII!!!!Movie finished. If it'd stuck to being a Greatest Hits album, it'd be fine, but man did it get psychotic about people killing themselves for the sake of victory. It's the same issue I had with Zambot 3, though I'm not sure if it's better or worse that this movie was a full-throated endorsement of martyrdom where Zambot had spent several episodes dedicated to how messed up suicide bombers were only to have everyone kill themselves in the last three episodes anyway.
>>23871929>>23871948Interesting considering how troubled a lot of Tomino's productions were later on
I hate when pointless sequels kill off characters who survived the original
>>23880294That's hospital corpsman. This is the naval service.
>>23880227Never heard of gunboat diplomacy?
>>23881970Bully
>>23880383Which side was killing itself?
>>23883186Did you not read the rest of my blogposts?
>>23880383You need to understand this series was made by individuals who hadn't really gotten over Imperial Japan's defeat in the Second World War.
>>23884814I understand it just fine. Still dumb, and I'm glad that mecha shows eventually got more complicated and less machismo-driven than this.
>>23884859Complicated?
>>23886475Another bot post.
>>23886487I begin to suspect you are in fact the bot.
>>23884859It's been a while but I'm pretty sure Yamato considered all of that gungho bravado to be little more than tragic and futile.
>>23888275See >>23880367
>>23888296Are you familiar with the concept of Presentism?
>>23888275Would it have made the filesize too large to post to progress the caps at a rate slow enough to actually read the subs?
>>23890951Almost looks like something out of Tron.
>>23880367Just world fallacy?
>>23892663That has nothing to do with anything here.Stop bumping threads that no longer serve a purpose, or I'm going to use the D word.
>>23892666daffodil?
Fuck off Duel
>>23893356What's so bad about Duel?
>>23894449I don't think there even is one
>>23894449>>23894456Fuck off bot.
>>23894462Bot post.
>>23881967Even the schematic didn't bother adhering to naval terminology, so why should anyone else?
>>23897325Are we supposed to be able to read that?
>>23898821Bot post.
>>23898862Bot post.
>>23900140Pot Bost
>>23900193pot boast?well, there was the one time I was a con and one of the guests who animated on UY was dipping on the crowds for a minute in my room, we walk in to some Dr Slump blasting out, a bong and a giant pile of weed, guest is like "lol this is like back in the day in Japan"
>>23900298How do you define "dipping on the crowd"?
>>23900298I thought weed was verboten in Japan.
>>23901487you're at a con, your room is already a designated hangout so you can't hide there, you know a dude and you want to just chill for like twenty minutes without nerds screaming around you>>23902482from what I've gathered bringing weed into the country was a very big deal to the point that if you look dodgy and you've ever had roach in your pocket just don't bring those pants to Japan they will look for ever crumb in every stitch as you go through customs, but within the country it's less totally nuts but still very downlow, the comparison I've heard for weed in Japan in the 80s and 90s is sorta like swingers in the USA around the same timethere's a lot of local networks but it's WAAAAY more secretive than modern USA gas station weed
>>23894449This isn't even Duel thread. It's a dude named Trollblade from Kiwi Farms lol
>>23903234So dipping on = dodging?
