COMBAT
>>23961957
>>23961957She looks like she would have the same voice actor as Haman Karen. Don't tell me that she does.I haven't seen the ovas or movies for about 15 years is so cut me a break.
>>23962054Haman's voice actress voices Shinobu.
>>23962054She's Sayla. actually. rip.
>>23961957How come she has traditionally asian slants while other Japanese characters in it are round eyed?
>>23962105This should be the Patlabor Thread Bingo center piece.
>>23962105because it's funny
Tora! Tora! Tora!

just re-watched an episode of Ota fumbling a grade A cutie.
>>23962121The Yankee obsession never ends with these westaboos.>>23962163Otahara is so freaking cringe, but getting laid might calm him down as much as good smelling pretty flowers.
Kanuka forever
EZY's BD release when?
>>23963461it's already out, I think.
>>23963734Initiate torrent magnet acquisition sequence. Torrent magnet acquisition sequence engaged.
>>23961957How come she wasnt on the 2nd movie?
>>23964462You'd think she would be a perfect fit for a movie involving american interference with the tokyo situation.
>>23964506How so?
>>23964506I kinda wanted to see what happened to her after the 2nd division got disbanded, maybe her grandma died or something like that. It would've been kino.
>>23964462Cause Oshii didn't like Kanuka
>>23964555>and other lies
>>23964608Sorry bro its on record
>>23961957Do you ever think she and Noa might have held hands or gently and tenderly hugged each other while whispering "combat"?I reckon probably not, Noa is a robotfucker through and through.But maybe...?
>>23964894No. There's only one episode of yuribait in the entire franchise from that idol girl in the TV show and then she was never seen again
>>23964902Who the fuck is talking about lesbianism here?
>>23964916(You)
do not gay the nuka
>>23964919Not at all, wtf are you saying? There's nothing faggoty about what I said.
>>23964894she was able to hold noa's hand while she was grinding on asuma in the command car
Looks like Discotek is licensing literally all of Patlabor now, from TV, New Files, and all three movies
>>23965111>no TNG>no EZYChoose your words carefully.
>>23962057and Gepelnitch in Macross 7
>>23964894they have lots of drunk lesbian sex.
>>23961957So does that fall under business, or pleasure?
Should I watch both Continuities before checking out EZY or is it standalone?
>>23966440Production order.
>>23965111
>>23968613Minipato is so good it could stand on its own, but they'll probably bundle it with WXIII again to boost the movie's meagre sales potential.
>>23968758It says it's all in one release.
>>23968764So it's relegated to being an extra again. Oh well.
The Central Park dub of the second movie is the best. I usually don't listen to dubs.
>>23968943Wtf I love America now
>>23965366Macross 7 is a like ZZ GundamNothing fucking happens for the middle 30 episodes
>>23968613>>23968758I still haven't watched the third Patlabor movie because I didn't like that it had monsters or aliens or something in it, but then I watch the TV series and there's kaiju and ancient dragons and giant monkeys and shit, so egg on my face. Is the third movie good?
I wish Kanuka was on my face
>>23969097It's fine but it feels barely related to the rest of the franchise.
>>23969097Think of it in these simple and reductive terms: the OVA had a monster episode, and then the TV series did the monster episode thing again, and then they made a movie version of the monster episode and it's not light and comedic at all but dark, brooding and dramatic once they reveal the monster.It's not a bad movie per se but kind of a black sheep. There's a cameo by the SV2 crew and it feels like they shoehorned it in for the sole reason that someone, somewhere, chose to make WXIII a Patlabor story, for some reason.
>>23969097It's great but it filters americans.
>>23969314Because Kanuka is missing?
>>23969324I'm not even American but that would filter me tooShe deserves her own spin-off movie as recompense
>>23969097yes it's good, just a fun monster investigation flick.
>>23965455"I'm surrounded by idjits"
I’m glad they made Kanuka Clancy look Asian so you know she’s half American.
>>23961957that was really cool that time the dragon chick came back in KeroroI'm watching the livestream of it raw, she's arriving at the airport, they do the thingand then I realized I got that joke the exact moment Japan did I didn't see a description on social media, I was just watching Family Frog like everybody else and pointed because they did the thing
>>23965455Dass rayciss!
>>23970087That got published in English?
>>23970087Combato indeed my ching chong chic
>>23965366Sayla's VA did Geppelnitsch.
>>23969097I enjoyed it. And I could have saved her
I wish she wasn't replaced by an inferior girl. Her and Ota were funny together.
>>23970087And in today news an american ex-cop and suspected terrorist Kanuka Clancy was shot to death by the TSA after she openly declared she was in the airport for "combat"Preliminary details are scarce but this could have ended up in a mass shooting had our valiant heroes not intervened.On another news, the police shot the suspect's grandmother and alleged co-conspirator after she resisted arrest.
>>23964894Considering what Asuma put Noa through in the Sushiya no Goto novel that just came out, maybe being a robotfucker isn't so bad after all.

>>23981213Looks really jank but I hope it does well enough that maybe other studios will take the hint and give us more mecha anime games in the future.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4pNlcvCGol8
>>23981213>>23983276It looks a lot better than the early trailer + showing that it wont just be an arena fighter with no dialogue is a big improvement. I'm just happy to have variety. We haven't had a mecha game with judo throws in a generational timespan.Also lol you can play as those little wired gun spider things from 2? That's crazy.
The new EZY episodes came out right? Is there no thread about them?
>>23986201I assume no one here has seen it or acquired the BD.
>>23986205They won't start shipping until thursday, and if you live in the US it'll probably take a week after that to get here. You'd also probably have to wait a little longer after that for fansubs.
>>23986234True, it'll take a while.

I managed to see File 2 though my experience probably would've been better if I knew Japanese. Episode 4 was alright, Kurumi was a lot cuter than I thought she would be. 5 was interesting but probably had ties to Japanese folklore and religion that went over my head. 6 is my favorite since it humanized Towa a bit more and we got to see her and Kippei have meaningful interactions. It was also probably the funniest episode too
>>23987268Is episode 4 a drinking episode?
I thought Oshii was supposed to be the anti-romance guy but it looks like it was the rest of Headgear. https://x.com/Char_Tweet/status/2089301141628629413
>>23987450It's basically the plotline written on the website, Kurumi finds that they're missing a bullet and starts freaking out. I think she and the other members were afraid that an eventual audit would lead into an internal investigation and Shige getting mad at them Sakaki style. I believe the wine part comes from Kurumi comparing the shells to wine bottles at a hotel mini bar
>>23987492Damn, I saw the title and was praying it would be a drinking episode like the one from the TV show or 2nd OVA. It'll happen at some point I bet... would be funnier if the characters were more fleshed out anyway.Thanks!
>>23987492To add on to this, so far EZY has been pretty captivating, but man I hope that more stuff is done with this project after File 3. They entertained the idea at some event not too long ago, the box office being the deciding factor apparently. It was obvious from the start, but this show definitely needs more than 8 episodes
>>23984749The waist looks like a repurposed patrol car.
>>23961957https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=caPCyOttcsg
>>23987491 the romance really is sorta kept to the background in the tv series. it feels more realistic that way
>>23987491Akemi Takeda seems on board tho
>>23995629Nah she follows the lead of Kazunori Ito and Masami Yuki
>>23995638Here we go again
>>23995646Huh? Akemi Takada doesn't write anything for the show and isn't involved with the manga right?
>patlabor thread>some retard obsessed with some weird shit will post about his obsession sooner or later
>>23995669Just keep ignoring him, we've already seen this discussion like two or three times already anyway
>>23995674inb4 he just talks to himself to manufacture a convo
>>23995669Genuinely what are you faggots talking about, Akemi Takada just draws the art for Patlabor she isn't involved in any writing
>he's gonna keep talking about it even if nobody replies to himGenuine mental illness.
>randomly gesturing to something I have no clue about
>>23995667sorry anon, a big part of being a patlabor fan on /m/ now is getting angry at random boogeymen for even slightly implying any criticism of headgear
>>23995720I wasn't even being critical of Headgear, I just said Akemi Takada wasn't really involved with the story of Patlabor. Literally don't have any idea what past discussion people are talking about
>he is still going
>>23995730Niggas obsessed by some novel where Noa cucks Asuma or some shit and then she divorces and marries him, retarded obviously, Gotou getting cucked was enough for me.
I guess aside from stupid topics clearly no one cares about anymore, Patlabor just had a Snowball Earth crossover https://bigcomics.jp/episodes/303ca464212ba
>>23996564Duel is gonna freak
