Yeah thats what I hear aswell.

SEED is decent, Destiny is just one big trainwreck.

Shame Gundam 00 followed the same pattern.
S1 - Decent to Good
S2 - Just a flop, but a huge sucess anyway.

I know they probably didn't mean anything by it, but considering just how many Gundam series have a least one young female pilot it's kind of a dumb thing to say. A better thing to say would've been, "A dumb, spoiled, psychotic bitch like you can't pilot a mobile suit."

Haman is still my favorite though. Shame she couldn't make it on that picture, since those are all super robot type of pilots.

How about 'Gundam 00 is an Evangelion ripoff because it adopts religious symbolism, but it's also better than Eva because there's a logical connection between the religious symbolism and its correct assertion that acts of fanatical terrorism are sometimes necessary to put the world to rights'?

I like it, but, "_____ is an Evangelion ripoff," is too obvious of a troll. I would use the term, "borrows heavily from." Other than that...APPROVED!

Fucking Eva.

I LIKED IT WHEN IT WAS CALLED IDEON


heheheheheheh.
(but seriously, even I don't really support that argument, regardless of being an Ideon fan and not an Eva fan at all).

I also loved Rahxephon. Probably one of the worst "____ is an Eva ripoff" cases I've ever seen. :(

Seriously, RahXephon and EVA aren't anywhere near as similar as people make them out to be and even then their similarities come about because they're based on older mecha shows.

Nah it's totally understandable with the awkwardness. It's like he's going 'I don't give a fuck, okay? Leave.'

I can totally understand what he's saying about 00 = SEED though, they appeal to similar audiences, they're like... the 'new' gundam serials. I propose we call them post-turn-A.

From some Sci-Fi movie review site:

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.


So pointless special effects and violence are, "OMG THIS IS AWESOME!" despite the billion plot holes but mecha is, "hurr this is stupid." This is why /m/, for all its stupidity, is still better than most of the internet.

/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 and people who bash animation because it isn't all deadpan drama.

Likewise on the nice avatar Feez. Where is that from anyway?
