Mecha stories shouldn't waste our time.

There's a general problem with fiction nowadays wanting to be a sweeping, epic narrative when its elevator pitch is typically not robust enough for that.

>cartoons for japanese toddler's are a waste of time
Hmmm, who could've guessed.

>no mecha ude
>no grendizer university
>no kyoukai senki
>no pluto
>no birdie wing

So the point of this thread is?

watch better (shorter) mecha

>>23301126
btw mecha is what I call my weenus. my weeeenus peenus that is :)

>>23301126
Oh, I genuinely assumed you were saying these shows were a waste of time because Aquarion and Gridman are quite devisive and Twilight Axis and the Arc anime are generally disliked by their fanbases.

Take Sakugan, Bravern, and Getter Arc out of there and I'll conceed the rest. Granbelm had a better version and it was called Regalia.

I'm gonna waste your but hole
Ass in lay it to waste

Bravern is the best in that image.

tbf I can't think of a single 50+ episode series that couldn't drop five or even ten episodes without any real issues.

>>23305062
wrong
it's proven that searching for salt for an entire episode is fundamental to the plot, the franchise and the genre as a whole

>>23301126
Maybe instead of watching shorter shows that fail to live up to it's potential you stop binge watching longer shows in the span of a few days

>Mecha stories shouldn't waste our time
The Price of Smiles and Shin Getter were both massive wastes of my time

>>23305131
>Shin Getter
*Getter Arc, man I'm going fucking old-age retarded

>>23301016 (OP)
Fiction inherently is a waste of time.

>>23305131
>The Price of Smiles
is it yuri?

>>23301016 (OP)
All anime that don't cover real life problems are a waste of time.
Your hobby should improve you, not brainrot you and make you a bigger lifeless loser

Yes, everything should be a movie

I thought dynazenon kinda blew and that the character stuff felt totally detached from the scifi going ons happening., gridmans character stuff at least felt more cohesive to what was going on with the toku stuff, dynazenon felt like two entirely seperate shows in different genres crammed into one.
Dynazenon itself is kinda cool i guess.

>>23301126
Go watch Escaflowne and tell me it would be better if shorter

>>23301142
Gridman might've been, I wasn't here during it, but I thought Dynazenon was well-received.

>>23311727
final ep had everyone creaming. Or I think it was /a/. I forgot but gridman was rather liked.

>>23311731
Gridman or Dynazenon?

>>23311737
gridman because nostalgia bait.

>>23305135
Getter Arc both anime and manga itself were a waste of time to be honest, i prefer the aggressive and brutal OVA intepretation over the soft and sentimental development of the manga. What really turns me off from Getter Arc is how the ending was a literall rehash of New Getter's ending, except 10 times lamer.

The solution to that is to go watch Gurren Lagann.

Stories* shouldn't waste our time.

I’m glad people are waking up to this realization. The manga was already garbage. I don’t give a damn it was discontinued because it was clearly going nowhere.

>>23317315

>aldnoah zero supsiciously absent

>>23317334
It wasn't renewed, Kamen Rider Spirits was on the same magazine and it simply moved to another one. Arc just got a few extra pages in book form and that's it. That was years before Ishikawa's death.
