Tomino went too hard. His dialogue can already be esoteric and hard to follow at points. Deliberately trying to make it hard to understand on top of that leads to just weird shit.

I just remember 90% of the dialogue was just people talking AT each other and not having an anything close to an actual conversation. Just throwing non sequiturs at each other back and forth
I'm hoping that's one of the many many many many problems addressed in the movies that I hear are a good amount better than the show

Yes. In fact, I read a Japanese review that wondered if everybody in G-Reco was a newtype, and they just had instinctive understanding of each other, because the dialogue flow was strange.
The films don't rectify that as much, but they fix some issues. For me, one of the bigger issues was just how casually it treated killing people.

The show was easy to follow. You tards just put it on in the background like zoomers with the attention span of fruit flies. Considering the number of people on this board who frequently demonstrate their failure to understand plot points in Mobile Suit Gundam, Zeta, and Char's Counterattack I can't say I'm surprised. Those are just more forgiving because they have big, spectacular set pieces at the end to wrap things up so retards can go "I made it to the end!"

>Why did Tomino make this bad on purpose. Is he stupid?

The truth no one wants to admit out loud is that at the time of making G-Reco, Tomino has fully slipped into "Old Man Yells at Cloud" era of mental acuity.

He used to ramble in the first 5-10 eps of a show before the story truly locked in. But in G-Reco, it was rambling all the way through, with not much a plot to hold it together. Stuff just "happened".

Things G Reco did well: Characters (personality/design), Animation, and world Building.

Things G-Reco did poorly: Storytelling, Plot, Mecha Design, Coherency.

He never said that, he said he personally liked it and had no regrets. Which would seem to be visibly untrue as he made a ton of changes for the compilation films.
>sorry if you didn't get it lmao
He didn't say this either, he apologized for making it so hard to understand. If it was backhanded he would have followed up with, "I know many people liked it", instead of just saying that he personally liked it.
>HURR HE APOLOGIZED
He.... literally did. He said "I'm sorry".

I don’t think Tomino was insane or senile or anything, I think he just went overboard with full creative control and only later realized it (not unlike George Lucas with The Phantom Menace). He was in charge of writing and storyboarding and directed the voice actors in a way that several came out and said they couldn’t understand their characters.
>characters sometimes say and do things that don’t make sense for them
>music is often not consistent with the events happening onscreen
>allegiances change on a whim with little apparent gravity
>terms are introduced many episodes before they’re elaborated on
I get what he was trying to do. You can’t always get a grip on who somebody is from interacting with them for ten minutes. Sometimes you hear words and terms you can’t possibly understand without looking it up. Sometimes people are fickle and irrational. But even Tomino knows he went too far.

Movies 1-3, and 5 are nearly identical to the bluray version. There's a few recuts, some QUALITY moments were partially redrawn but have the same storyboarding, there's like one extended fight scene, and they composited some new effects on top of the old animation, like the G-Self's eyes. They're basically just quality fixes. Movie 4 is the only one with significant changes to the fleet battle, but it's still the same narratively and content-wise. You literally haven't watched the movies.

G-Reco wasn’t fundamentally broken. All it needed was a tweaked line here, some new shot there. That’s what the movies delivered on.
Compare Dellensen’s death in the series vs movie 2. Bellri comes off completely differently.
