It's really not so bad is it....or you know like at all bad really.

RandomPerson4 said:

It's a Sunrise anime. Everything they make is a mecha (even Gintama at some points).


Holy crap just how ignorant can this thread be..... *facepalm*

TBH i'm not a big fan of any Mecha series but since this is Sunrise's Mecha then I'll give this one a shot. Besides that, I'm interested on the cast though, it's like an all star cast in here.


Sunrise series almost always have a stacked cast since they basically buy it New York Yankees style and have people you normally would see as leading roles only in supporting cast roles or even bit roles. They tend to have a strong commitment on the audio production side of things too since they have a large number of resources and their parent company Namco Bandai owns it's own music label Lantis and has connections everywhere to draw on. That's how you get things like mainstream artists such T.M Revolution, Back-On, ELISA and Senju Akira to name a few do music for their shows quite often. It's one of the things I always look forward to any time there's a new project from them.

Looks promising. Potential replacement for Valvrave.

Kaioshin_Sama said:
I just found out this is Studio 8 getting the project too. I was wondering what they were up to and if they only had Love Live planned for next year. This pretty much guarantees top tier animation quality and gorgeous looking female characters, but it'll also probably mean it'll be a little more moe otaku oriented as well since that's the crowd Studio 8 has been set up to attract more towards the Sunrise label. That's more than okay though cause they typically do my kind of moe anyway.


You mean the same studio team who made Kyoukai Senjou no Horizon? Now I'm pumped.

The endless debate between fans and haters. At one point, after spending a lot of time on MAL, you just realize it's totally pointless.

When ppl started talking about "BL" and "Mecha", I instantly thought of Haganai's mecha scenes LOL.

P.S. Gintama is actually mecha series. Its just that the cast of Gintama are too lazy to get into the mechas xD

Wow this is for winter? I thought most/all of the winter shows were announced already. As for the show itself, very interesting. Sounds like my kind of show. Not sure what the purpose of the name is though..

Also, HanaKana and Marina Inoue? Yukino from Oregairu? YES PLEASE. The cast list is STACKED.

Kaioshin_Sama said:
Of course MAL would react like this with overwhelming inexplicable negativity and start complaining about Valvrave (which owns anyway but they clearly aren't actually watching or know what it's about anymore) and how much it doesn't like mecha cause MAL largely sucks that way. Me this has tailor made for my interest written all over it again from Sunrise. Top down awesome looking voice cast, military look, good composer, coming of age story etc.

One thing that people always fail to realize is that you can never know everything about a Sunrise show just by looking at it's early promotion phase yet we always seem to go through this same stupid cycle. Things almost never turn out like you'd expect in a good way and there's always surprises and twists and things they do to try to keep the viewer interested and engaged, but you'll never know if you don't actually you know watch the show before deciding it's terrible like people always fucking do with Sunrise mecha series now. There's rarely what I'd call filler and things tend to move along at a brisk pace while something is always happening. In short they typically don't waste time.

Seriously though MAL user base, you're literally the absolute worst sometimes. If you people hate mecha that much just stick to your McMonogatari's or whatever that Shonen Jump show SHAFT was doing that you all seem to love already cause mecha is clearly a deal breaker for ya'll.


Dude chill. You're overgeneralizing. I think this show sounds fantastic and I don't think I'm alone. Don't let the debbie downers get to you. Also, no need to defend Sunrise so vehemently. Having haters comes with being a tremendously successful studio like Sunrise. Why would anyone hate on them if they weren't so well known and successful?

The title was awful , like wtf it doesn't make sense and yes it sounds like a BL. It succeed on giving me the same impression when I heard of Brothers Conflict , I thought it's going to be BL.

Those mechs , as expected from Sunrise. Those energy wings of the mechas reminded me of Code Geass <:

Looks neat , PTW LIST !

Hmm coming back to this, I honestly don't care if it's like Valvrave or not (personally I enjoy it despite it's plot holes) but I'm not too fond of the character designs. Besides that the animation looks terrific, as expected of Sunrise I suppose. Looking forward to it anyways.

I don't actually see why people hate valvrave so much, the show is honestly so entertaining despite all the flaws. The first few eps had me laughing, then some had me going wtf and others had me going awww sheeet.

Very few shows can have me going through so many emotions at once haha.

Title aside, I was a tad bit intrigued by it, mainly because of Dio. Then I watch the PV and knew it was shit.
Seriously though, there's even a fucking spoiler about the black-haired girl dying, or at least appearing to be, for god's sake.

Another Mecha show...............nice. Sunrise you rock.

Despite what some little idol-fanatic/moe-loving kids say about you, you will always be one of my favorite. I will be looking forward to this. Also from those PVs, the mecha designs are great. Now time to watch them again and see how many references are there from previous mecha animes (i love seeing similarities).

Way way better than some gaymance-crap some other famous studios come up with.

The thing is what he says are right on the mark most of the time. It's no wonder people get on his case.................after all truth hurts doesn't it? I don't know what category you are but the way MAL people react to Sunrise anime or any mecha anime is irritating. But they literally dance in joy when another moe anime is announced.............it looks these simple minded fools will always be satisfied as long as they are provided some fap material and idol dancing (no wonder moe animes are on the rise).

It would have been great if they stayed on their own threads but continuous BULLSHIT like "OH another sunrise anime" "another valvrape" "characters aren't interesting blah blah blah" will get any good fan pissed. I can understand where he is coming from even it may seem extreme. Well who cares if some stupid kids doesn't understand the epicness of Sunrise? They still make some of the best and interesting animes and awesome mecha designs.

Thank god, we have a mecha show for winter. Sunrise hasn't written a good story for a mecha anime in years so I don't have much hope for it, as long as it's as entertaining as valvrave I'm down.

The mech designs looked like gundams with those stupid fairy wings from code geass though.

on the bright side, even thought it isnt for winter or sunrise, for 2014 you can get hyped for captain earth which has 2 promotional images that scream hype

besides lets not count sunrise out just yet, tiger and bunny was still relativly new and in the most stretched meaning of the genre it technically counts as a mecha
