Ckan said: Sidonia and Majestic Prince were some great recent mecha. BUT WAIT, THEY'RE CGI, OH NOES. Actually majestic Prince's Mech fights were the best thing about the show,the story was okay,the dialogue was crngeworthy,the characters ventured from okay to terribad And do'nt even get me started with FUCKING Hisashi |
|
| I'd agree that the story wasn't anything special, but I don't see what the problem with Hisashi would be here - the designs were well used, distinguishable, and varied. Unless you dislike his style completely - which would purely personal preference, or have an issue with SD reaction faces, I honestly don't think calling out "Hisashi" is really a valid criticism much in the same vein as Code Geass and Clamp's "noodlepeople". |
| Watched the first G-Reco episode and GODDAMNIT was it cringeworthy,i could'nt even sit through the full episode (and trust me i sat through 3 episodes of ZZ) This is what happens when you let "Happy Tomino" get his hands on a series |

I'd say i just have a problem with general style,though to be honest his Majestic Prince designs were much better and more distinguishable than Gundam seed and his other Post-SEED shows |

| Yeah, I was pretty worried when his name was on the staff, but it turned out especially well. Aparently his earlier works didn't have so much of the sameface problem either. vongola-undecimo said: Unfortunate for you, but all the better for those of us who like this Tomino.

| Mecha is a fun genre, I've watched and enjoyed a lot of them. I can't say that enjoy everything mecha though. |

I have no idea how you came to that conclusion, given how important the LIMs are to the over-arching themes of connecting to others. Also, that would mean no Argent, and it looks baller. I want a model of that thing. The mecha was the only interesting thing about this show. It was extremely boring and it felt like I had to force myself just to watch 10 episodes before I finally put it on hold. |
 |
| I don't really care for the Mecha genre much. I did enjoy Gurren Lagann a lot, and I absolutely hated Infinite Stratos. Aldnoah Zero is average for me. So I can't say I hate Mecha, it's just not my favorite genre. |

| I don't really like mecha all that much with a few exceptions like Gurren Lagann, Neon Genesis Evangelion, Gunbuster and Code Geass. I just prefer when shows are mostly about the characters rather than scenes with giant robots which can be very boring at times. |

| Mecha excels when it focuses on the plot and characters instead of simply being a bunch of pointless shit that gets you from fight scene to fight scene. Sadly, I've found most of them fall under the latter category. |
 |
| It's true that good mecha are few and far between, and very little has been impressive lately (Argevollen has potential though). But that's not exactly strange. Just look at any other genre and notice how it's not much better - only a handful of anime can be that good - of any kind. And like everything else, it's all in how you go about it. If you don't like the Go Nagai style super robots, and the generic stuff doesn't impress you, there's plenty of fodder in Gundam (almost any UC title except ZZ), any VOTOMS title with Chirico, and one-ofs like Flag. If you prefer characters with super powers while mecha are taking a back seat (but still very important), you can go with Giant Robo. You can have zany almost parody-style series like TTGL. There's something for most people that have even the slightest inkling towards sci-fi if they bother to look. Most people who hate he genre never gave it a chance. They're right up there with anyone else who makes a broad generalization based on anecdotal evidence. |

Are you telling me that this doesn't do it for you art-wise? |
| Yeah it actually doesn't. |

Emperormin3 said: xRatatosk said: That's really sad, pathetic even. We all have our own tastes and saying I'm pathetic because of that is both rude and stupid. When you judge something on one aspect, and say just because of that aspect you wouldn't enjoy something, that's even more stupid What if everything in the Anime is to your liking, but the Art is bad? By your logic "Screw it going to dislike cuz of Art even though everything else is great." Pretty stupid honestly. But eh, it's fine. I don't really care if people like that don't get to enjoy Anime with unconventional Art. I can laugh at them and enjoy hidden gems and other shit that's good while they cry about Art and miss out. |

| Again, you wouldn't know how much of a mistake it is if you don't watch any. Note that this statement isn't actually making any assumptions. |

If I say everything is good but the story is shit it works the same way. And everyone does that. So why don't you stop being a little child and respect my opinion. Calling someone stupid over their taste is stupid in itself. |
