WELCOME TO /m/ ON ENDCHAN
/m/ is under new management and the scope of the board is expanding a little, to better reflect its roots and be a proper legacy board.
You know what we talk about, don't you?  If it has giant robots (super or real), power armor or a mix of both, then it's /m/-related enough to be here.
Tokusatsu in general is allowed since most of it falls into one of the above categories.

So then who's looking forward to all the rage and tears of the next FMP season? I already read the books long before the manga, because honestly, fuck waiting all those fucking years. And yes I shit you not, if the anime adaptation is as faithful as TSR, Fumoffu and Season 1 were there will be rage and tears.

Honestly is there a pilot in mecha that has done any of the insane feats Uso has done in V Gundam? Gif related, one of the craziest stunts he did. For those who have not seen the show this is what's happening.

> he split up his Gundam into 2 parts, fighter jet and torso
> he proceeds to fight enemies with both the Gundam's empty torso and the fighter jet mode at the same time

My blood pressure rose a unit in maybe ten seconds, but then I settled on that I really see no problem with that. Iron giant already elegantly represents the Toku giant alien robot because both were based on the early 1900's sci-fi boom. It kinda feels like complaining Mickey Mouse being replaced by an off-brand but accurate Felix the Cat, so I won't.

The mix of hydrolic and artificial muscles with minimal use of servos seems to be the future. But as artificial muscles get better I do see servers dying out. Dunbine, Gasaraki and King Gainer are some of my favorite mecha due to their use of artificial muscles.

I haven't been watching Gundam for a few years now thanks to 00 sucking so bad among other things but yeah that unit looks like it's lower half is totally expendable. 

Check out the legs too, spindly and bad.  I think if you get any skinnier than Fafner units you're cruzin for a bruzin

pic unrelated
I googled for "weak gundam" and this was a few pages in

Then either stop being a dumbshit yokel, or go all the way to autism and invent the concept of whatever amazing supersteel allows these mechs to be disbelief-suspendingly viable in the first place. Any real mech would have roughly the body proportions of Great Mighty Poo, and making retard arguments like "waist should be 13% thicker and that'd do it!" triggers me completely.

08Th MS Team is probably on of the most cherished an enjoyed Gundam entry in the Western world.  It speaks to us in the way it is so down to earth and lacks fantastical things that we do not have such as easy space travel and laser weapons.  As an American it speaks to me because we are use to our families and history being involved in warfare on a personal level. 

Here's to what I think is your favorite show too.

The reason why I like it is because it showed mecha that needed maitenance, squad based team work, and the fact that the feddies are also scumbags. With that said the romance wasn't that bad, but I won't lie it disrupted the show's pacing badly.
