It's not really the fact that this guy saying that he hated Gundam that pissed me off, but the way his that his sentence was so awkwardly phrased. And he called 00, SEED.

I know, stupid reason, but still...

Patlabor: The Movie **1/2 said:
In my review of Ghost in the Shell I said that Japanese animation (anime) can be more than a bunch of RoboTech type giant robots manned by wide-eyed Pokemon style kids beating the crap out of each other. You wouldn't think it watching Patlabor: The Movie (incidentally also directed by Mamoru Oshii, who would direct Ghost in the Shell later on).

Blade Runner **** said:
True, the plot is riddled with more holes than one may bother picking, but the combination of fantastic special effects, intense violence and situations, an uniquely downcast tone and ending makes for a not-to-be-missed film; one which at times is difficult to have been actually produced by Hollywood.

/m/ may have a lot of bad points, but at least it doesn't combine my two most hated things: people who try to make Blade Runner out to be amazing when it is a terrible, terrible film.

If you can read that and not rage even just a little bit I'll salute you.

Edit - Also should add that you cannot LOL either. You must read it straight faced and attempt to take it seriously. Which is impossible since it is from ANN, but whatever.

Hahaha oh wow. He starts of praising it by mocking other Gundam shows. Then goes down to ripping it apart saying its not all that great.

>the series' modern twists
>terrorism

Man. This guy is full of so much shit.

>Mecha action filled with grown-up ideas and grown-up politics.

Absolutely_Steve said:

Terrorism didn't exist until 2001, therefore making it totally modern. Of course it would be one thing if it was just some pretentious ANN douche spouting it, but AMERICANS ACTUALLY BELIEVE THIS.

BUT I SAW TERRORISTS IN DIEHARD AND THAT MOVIE WAS MADE IN THE 80S!

SHHHH DON'T SAY IT SO LOUD, PEOPLE MIGHT START -..... *whispers* THINKING!!!!

llxwarbirdxll said:
People can think? I thought that only starfish and certain breeds of plants were capable of that.

Absolutely_Steve said:

I don't know, you and this thing also seem to be pretty good at thinking:

That's not Quattro, that's Chanye Weznable. It's the alias Casval took when he decided to join the cast of The Wire.

Edited because I fucked up the aliases in my initial post.

Lolololol

Ahahaha. It's always funny seeing people who've watched Gundam Wing and hardly anything else and they go around treating Wing Zero as though it's the most powerful thing ever. Also contributan to the rage since it's been bumped:

Edit: Make sure to read BGMLV's comment too. I'm glad a majority of those people saw this as an abomination.

Super Robot Wars OG: The Inspector

Rating: 3

The first five minutes of Super Robot Wars OG: The Inspector has, on the surface, very little to do with the rest of the episode...at least if you're someone who hasn't watched any previous Super Robot Wars series. Beyond that, however, the episode is mostly comprehensible to a layperson-- the only hard part is in the battle scene that takes up roughly the final third of the episode, because you don't know who's fighting for which side (unless you cheated and looked it up).

For the newbie, however, a little cheating plus The Inspector might make for an okay introduction, assuming you don't have access to earlier titles (but do have access to Wikipedia). Sure, the nipples on the female pilot seem to grow in every shot, but hey-- there's a female pilot! And she appears to fight for the good guys! (Ahem, Gundam 00, with your effeminate-but-not-female Tieria and your psycho Nena Trinity.)

Another thing that was a nice bump up from Gundam 00 was the ages of the characters. With a couple of exceptions that appeared in the OP or ED, the characters all could legitimately be in their late 20s to 30s, at least by anime standards. I won't profess to be much of a mech afficionado, but both the machines and the characters in the series have strong designs...mostly. One looks like the goofy would-be captain from Irresponsible Captain Tylor, and another sports some pretty ridiculous shades. Also, half of the pilots wear helmets while piloting their mechs and half of them don't, although that may just be my lack of mech familiarity showing. The characters themselves seem reasonably strong without being over-the-top single-trait shells, although the two female pilots who have dialogue in the episode aren't going to win any stereotype-breaking awards.

Veteran Super Robot Wars fans probably already know whether or not they want to check this out, but if the idea of a slightly aged-up Gundam-esque political mech drama appeals to you, The Inspector may be worth your time. Just make sure you schedule yourself enough time to pause, Google, and read up a couple of times throughout the episode.

He said main character NOT in a harem so pretty much every mecha is out of the question here cept Eureka 7 & Rahxephon, both brilliant but similar almost identical.
