Dude, aliens, lmao
>>23873760god forbid /m/ having /m/onsters in it, might as well bitch about toku and godzillas too
>>23873760He says, when Seed was the one that introduced a fucking flying space whale.
>>23874310Turn A had a mobile suit float into the solar system from who knows where
>>23874061thats because ultraman isnt about war and peace between humans its about our hero ultraman protecting humanity from alien monsters while in 00 the aliens are an actual stand in for the other side of a conflict in human war.unless the aliens are exceedingly anthropomorphic you cant have an analogy about war because real diplomacy doesnt happen through psychic mind interfacing and your geopolitical adversary is probably not completely free of malice and only has goals that arent mutually exclusive to yours. the twist about reframing what looks like a war against monsters into a war against an intelligent species doesnt work when the other side is actually inhuman and completely dissimilar to real political actors in human warfare because it causes the whole fucking war analogy to fail.Notice how in 0079 and zeta newtypes get fucked over and exploited while 00 takes the same concept but plays it completely straight by turning innovators into psychic super diplomats which makes 00s worldview seem utopic and naive in comparison.this is the problem, its like youre telling the tale of the turtle and the hare but then you go "but what if the turtle was actually an alien lmao"well what fucking then???? you ruined the fucking metaphor you stupid fuck!!!
The problem with the ESLs wasn't that they were aliens, it was that they were fucking lame and just kamikazed into shit instead of having their own mecha.
>>23873760Dialogues to come and 100 references to old ass ayy scifi (Mankind in the Cradle) and people still missed the fact ayys were coming
>>23874061>might as well bitch about toku and godzillas too.Anon have you SEEN the Kaijuragers/Gameragers that shit those threads up even?
>>23874350They were great for the budget though. Just a bunch of generic cgi to blow up. Think of the savings!!
>>23874345>"but what if the turtle was actually an alien lmao"It worked for Ultraman, what is 00's excuse?
>>23873760Oh no aliens in my mecha show whatever will I do. Heaven's to Betsy so controversial and provocative. KYS NIGGER
>>23873760>some nerd makes the Wing plan to unify humanity against eventual aliens hundreds or thousands of years from now>humanity will need generations to adapt to their new existence>never bothers to explain, just tries to brute force itEh nevermind, we want to use the existing cast. The aliens will be here next week and Setsuna will warp digivolve
>>23874350I kind of liked the idea that 00 was working to our potential meeting with aliens and preparing us for such an event but I don't think it's something we should have actually seen. It's a nice uplifting message about the future. Then the aliens show up and they're all assholes and it undercuts it.
>>23874835>and they're all assholesThey're not, though.
>>23874836>Show up and immediately start killing and shitting up the galaxyThey were complete cunts. >But communication STOP BLOWING SHIT UP!
Fafner did it better for the dozen people that watched it
>>23874840They showed up and started moving slowly towards the Earth. Were you watching it at double speed? Staring at your phone? Both?
Lots of filtered anons here.
>>23874851They showed up by possessing cars to run people over and by attacking my wife Amia Lee
>>23874851>They showed up and started moving slowly towards the Earth.Causing fear and destruction in their wake.
>>23874862That happens later, after the Federation blew the hell out of them with missiles and beams, then prods the wreckage with its own cars. Everything other than "move towards people" is mirroring what we did to them.>>23874865There was literally nothing in their wake except Jupiter and an empty ship with an already dead Ribbons clone.
>>23874061They were just lazy and didn't want to draw an MS vs an MS.
