Yeah I loved this on Toonami and bought the DVD is the early 00s. Honestly I haven't watched it since but it was kind of babby's first for me (technically I was watching Sailor Moon in 94 or 95 but whatever.)

Checked the new Gundam Build Fighters Try pilot and it was SO HYPE that I'm bringing the prev. series to the top of my backlog. I need more of this in my system.

I dearly desire to see Natalya's stance on this.

My stance is I wish I were a girl now. I remember last year they were selling SM lingerie too. And a friend of mine has a Sailor Mars swimsuit.

My dream is to cosplay as the shittenou with 3 other like minded dudes...

Yeah I really enjoyed it. Apparently that blue haired guy is China's ____ (?) if it's seven years it can't be her and Sei's son so...?

G Reco is also pretty cool, I think. I believe in Tomino.

And the Garo animation finally aired so us /m/en are pretty set this season.

Finished season 1 of Railgun.

It was OK to good, and entertained me, which is really all that matters at the end of the day I guess (all questions of "taste" and "plebs" aside). I felt it really had the potential to shine, especially during the serious bits (Level-Upper and teleporter girl's flashback to a bank robbery), but the comedy and mundane light-heartedness weighed it down a lot.

Teleporter girl became a more legitimate character as the series went on and gained some gravity, but the end kind of went downhill with the campiness (really, a flamboyantly purple mechsuit?). Railgun girl was awesome and earned a spot on the new 2048.

Also, inb4 TBD, this doesn't signify the end of Mami spam. It's way too fun watching you guys squirm and whine to give that up.

Finished Outlaw Star. Every critic warned me that the plot started getting shitty by the end, but I got hooked like a sucker. Even if Gene and Melfina's kiss seemed entirely fueled by "oh shit harry wants her I must want her too then. And more!"

I keep wanting to go back and watch Gundam Wing since that was the one I grew up with, but everyone who I know who went and re-watched it recently says it's like... really bad. So I'm worried, but I doubt it'll stop me.

Well I care mostly because he's overwriting content I'd rather read, but I'm more concerned about your obsession than I am appalled.

Gundam Wing is just bad, yeah. Trieze is the man though. Zechs is the best Char clone because 6>4

Fuck that noise, I just started watching it and it is exactly as cool as I remembered it being.


The voice acting is admittedly terrible, but in all honesty I think that doing a fan-made dub would actually be a really cool project. I want to watch the rest of it to make sure it's as cool as I remember, but if the only problem is repetitive boneriffic dialogue, it'd be cool to have access to the right type of music and SFX files to dub it over again.

Alright, so I'm about halfway through Gundam 79 now. Apparently, I stopped watching exactly at a break point. I feel like, starting with the death of Ranba Ral, this show began steering directly toward the shark ramp. The entire thing with Ryu...god. Conceptually, it was brilliant. It's execution was among the worst I have ever seen. I'm in the 20s episodes now. It's starting to turn around again. I hope it doesn't hit that ramp and jump the shark, though.
