Look at those boobs.


I suspect multiple shower/bath scenes will happen with that chick. Or at least some Gainaxing when she's in the mecha.

Glorious. I'm so totally looking forward to that.

Oh yeah, they do. One of the chapter open with color page showing one of the girls taking a bath. Not the one on the picture though. Another one showed many of the girls form the academy showering. There won't be a lack of fanservice for this one.

I think there is a reason it's called "Fan-service".

If my eyes didn't deceive me, i think there's already a preview picture of a bath scene on the site. i believe there are also several girls providing fanservice lol.

It's Getbackers's mangaka, so that's a plus for me also.

So it's about dudes instead? Finally. I was getting bored of females piloting everything.

Although the name makes me think it's some shoujo. That's just way to fru fru for a mecha series.


you have not seen Star Driver? it looks somewhat gay but definitely a good and enjoyable mecha show
Nope. Perhaps there's something wrong with me, but judging from various Google images, it looks less gay than the picture posted in this thread of Majestic Prince.
Those cutesy character designs.

So another anime with no excuse for the pilots being a bunch of teenagers.
"artificially raised and trained to be pilots of armed robots"

You keep on trucking, bro.
So like I said. They have to be teenagers. Naturally.
Personally I would have liked them to be a little older...

Genetically engineered children?! This could have some interesting premises...

If you really want to fit in, just put Legend of the Galactic Heroes in your top 5 and have it be the only 10-rated anime in your list.

I personally think we need more shoujo mecha shows. The only ones that come to mind are Magic Knight Rayearth and Escaflowne- Both are from the 90's as well. I can't think of ANY from the 2000's. I know there's some shoujo space shows like Moretsu Pirates, but that's not a mech show.

In fact, correct me if I'm wrong, but from looking around a bit, I think those two may very well be the ONLY shoujo mecha anime in existence.

Edit: Found a third, but it looks pretty horrendous. http://myanimelist.net/anime/2288/Cyberteam_in_Akihabara

Erm.

Infinite Stratos is a HAREM. No, it does not satisfy a female audience. There are some women who like harems, but I would not say it is equally geared at men and women. It is very clearly meant for men. There are no harems made for women, just as there are no reverse harems made for men.

Rinne looks like it has alot of fan service. I think it's safe to say it's geared at men.

While Star Driver is made by some of the people who made the classic masterpiece shoujo known as Utena, it still looks harem-esque to me. I could be wrong on that one however.

For an example of a mech show geared at both men and women... Well, you've obviously seen Gurren Lagann. While it does have a little fanservice, Gainax subtly combined elements of shoujo and josei into it as well, making it very accessable to both genders regardless of what their preferences may be. This is one reason it doesn't have a demographic tag, where Star Dirver and Infinite Stratos both say Shounen and Magic Knight Rayearth and Escaflowne both say shoujo. =)

I think Gundam Wing had a pretty good spread of male and female viewers as well because the boys were all pretty. Mmm Duo.

Why make futile wild guesses when you can check what the original manga is like??

So MAL finally starts locking news threads that are only a few weeks old?

I wonder where was the announcement of this change? Or we are seeing yet another case of changes made that impacted users but not communicated to them?

I wonder how long people would put up with this.

As much as I have a bunch of information to share about anime announced recently I cannot share it in news board, and the anime series is too disorganized and chaotic to share information except with people already interested in the particular series.

Gurren lagann has shoujo and josei elements in it? I think you watched the wrong show.
Gurren lagann's demographic is Shounen, according to Dengeki Daioh.

Rinne does not really have that much fan service. There are some mild fan service but quite a lot are just moe traits inherent in the character design (like clumsy girl, big chested girl etc). Because of that, the anime indeed attracts more female audience than the usual robot shows. Besides the focus of the story on the bonds and friendship of the 3 heroines is a story that female audience can identify.

Star Driver is definitely strong on female audience (as far as robot shows go) as there are quite a number of cool-looking male characters there. The robot design even looks a bit feminine too.

That's the manga adaptation. The anime is original, and thus does not have an official shounen/shoujo/seinen/josei demographic label. I agree, of course, that TTGL's creators no doubt anticipated a majority (but not exclusively) male audience. I just wouldn't point to the manga adaptation as definitive proof.


Yeah i know, and i'm not saying there are no female viewers for Gurenn lagann, i'd look like an idiot if i said that, but seriously, Josei/Shoujo elements in Gurenn lagann? Does not compute lol.

Sounds odd to me too, but I'd need to hear more about what elements the poster had in mind. Perhaps it was just an unusual choice of words to describe the rather intensely emotional romantic relationships and strong female presence. Can't speak for that person.


But those aren't necessarily associated with Shoujo/Josei.
Though i'd also rather hear it from the poster too, what they meant with Shoujo and Josei elements that is lol.

That was my point. Shoujo, especially, gets thrown around a lot even for shows that are heavily male-targeted. People often use it as shorthand to describe things that are not inherently more prevalent in typical shoujo manga than manga for other demographics.


that's common on here, and i've seen many examples to be frank, and it's not Shoujo lol.

Wow. I've rarely seen a thread as full of fail as this one. Anyway, I hope it isn't too heavy on school aspects or it's an instant drop. I want to see people fighting and blowing the shit out of everything in their mechs and not comedy scenes about their wacky student life.
