"Story" where nothing happens "Characters" with no personality or agency No appeal to anyone except subhumans who get excited by references and hype from overrated directors.
>>281205323 Hey, I did, later. It was better than expected, even though it showed its' age and budget a lot. And the ending was like, "this is it?" Mirai falling for the blonde Leutenant and losing him within one episode was so absurd and cliched it became hilarious. All it took was him bullying her fiance and smacking her across the face.
>>281204838 (OP) They made a show that's too good so the rabble of loud tourists who only watch anime ironically and shitpost about it can't engage with it
>>281204838 (OP) the shipping in the show was much weaker than the last one

>>281207699 If there were a season 2 announcement I have some speculation about where it could go but there's not much point talking about it unless that happens.
>>281209759 Wrong, I've watched other Gundams way before Gquacks including 0079 and Zeta. It's garbage

gcucks made me watch the entirety of UC and i've thrown hundreds for the whole UC library collection since then so I would say sunrise made out like a bandit with my wallet
My favorite part was the people who were like >just be patient Anno/Tsurumaki will deliver! It will pay off. And then when the end happened they either admit it was trash or try to push ShuMachu as clever and the ending as meaningful.
>>281205844 Why do zoomers pretend like they are movie critics? It's very funny, they have a huge chip on their shoulder always trying to present themselves like an actual pseud.
>>281210024 Anno's largest contributions were in the theater release and that created significant buzz and revenue before the show even aired. It even got widespread showings in the US and English media coverage. Trying to portray it as anything besides a success is silly.
>>281210095 I think the problem was trying to release it in cour format. The original 1st movie was pretty great It deserved the success. the seasonal cour ruined it. I hope they fix it for the 2 theatrical releases they have left
The only cool part was the scene with the OG gundam at the end of episode 11. The rest was entirely forgettable. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DPYCaIbUz7A
It was good. But it's not airing. Not every show needs a fucking general thread every week. Also franxx was garbage and the only reason people even remember it was because the show was coomerbait.

>>281210142 The film version is better but the rest of the episodes were still pretty good. Saying it was anywhere close to ruined is also laughable.

>>281210202 I started hating GQ by like the first third, but that moment was pretty good ngl. Too bad the pilot turned out to be Shuji, we didn't even found out who that asshole was other than being a plot device
>>281210678 Pacing is the only real issue, unfortunately 12-26 episodes is becoming the norm for gundam. Alt history UC is a neat concept they just needed more time to flush it out.
>>281204838 (OP) Modern directors need to get their "disinterested schoolgirl" fetish under control. Like half of the cast is like that here, unless they're a disinterested schoolboy. This is what happens when you overdose on compensated dating and start thinking girls act that way when they're not "dating" an ugly ojisan.
>>281210253 Those parody sequences were disgusting. They're meant to be fanservice but they feel like pissing on a corpse

>>281210072 I blame my generation (millenial) and Xers for being too ironic to enjoy things without layers upon layers of irony. Zoomers thought they had to defend every ounce of their taste like critics to be genuine and not fall victim to ironic shitposting. >>281209832 >retarded catfag take Nyaa lost and the show said "old is better", there was no better outcome for an UC-AU setting broadcast after Witch. >>281209889 I bet 90% of Zeta shitposters just hate Kamille/Zeta for "muh misoginy" or some other faggotry like that.
>>281213226 Illia Pazom has been there since ZZ anon. If you just want Kuro without the Gyaru then you can have Lalah, Marbet, Shakti, not!Mihoshi, Laura...
>>281213310 Tough break, Tomino seems to prefer his brown chicks to be more mystical than vapid.

>>281213192 >hate Kamille/Zeta for "muh misoginy" or What the fuck are you talking about? I just think the story goes off the rails completely in the second half. Second half of Z is no better than ZZ.
>>281213441 How does it go off? It set its pieces and the tension between them broke. Titans had their arc, got fucked, and the vacuum of power attracted other cunts.
>>281213460 Psycho Gundam was my breaking point. That whole story was just too retarded for me and Kamille acted like a retarded little bitch. >Titans had their arc Yeah and Neo Zeon didn't, they had to wrap that up in ZZ and it sucked, making the whole Neo Zeon story suck. So that's half of Z's story sucking balls right there, don't even pretend Neo Zeon wasn't a major part of Z
