Well. It's happening. Five Star Stories finally gets a new English release.

After all these years...finally

>>23366872 (OP)
I... what the fuck?

some retard will see this and ask about gothicmade

What about Gothicmaid

>>23366872 (OP)
I can finally read this gem?

>>23366942
You could before with the Toyspress English versions, but considering the current going rate....either stick it out to March or go with Mangadex scans of the Toyspress versions.

>>23366948
>Mangadex scans of the Toyspress versions.
Didn't Mangadex get nuked?

>>23366957
Yes but FSS is still available to read.

>>23366892
>>23366910
No, seriously, why isn't there a Gothicmade home video release yet? What the fuck?

>>23366990
Let me tell you why. Nagano for one, is an Auteur, but also an autist when it comes to his works. He literally commissioned companies to make him materials for his manga because the other inks/shades he used weren't available. Anyway, Nagano filmed Gothicmade in 12k, which doesn't even have theaters that can run it. So, it's shrunk to 8k for theaters in Japan with Dolby speakers. This is how Nagano wants us to see it.

>Titan Manga
Between this and Wild Fang it looks like FSS is eternally condemned to MTL slop for English.
>>23367005
This is a hoax, the real reason is because Gothicmade was a pilot for Toho's Dreampass rescreening program that lets it air on their Japanese theaters on demand.

>>23366872 (OP)
THIS NIGGER IS GETTING TRANSLATED

>picked up Brain Powerd because only saw the kits and thought for some reason that this was what anons were talking about
>turns out it was Five Star Stories, and just both of them have unusual humanoid designs
Well, I guess the translation's something to look forward to

I don't care. I want Gothicmade.
Release it Nagano, you pretentious gatekeeping elitist faggot.

Does anyone who knows moon know what he actually said in this scene?

Titan Manga, Newtype to Release Five Star Stories Manga in English Starting in March 2026
>The Newtype panel at Anime Expo on Friday announced that Newtype and Titan Manga will release Mamoru Nagano's The Five Star Stories manga in English starting in March 2026.

Didn't this guy fuck Tomino's wife?

>>23367430
No.

>>23367453
But it's funny. Things that are funny are always true.

>>23367095
Was this Wild Fang?

>>23366872 (OP)
Genial, ¿cuándo tendremos The Five Star Stories en español?

>>23367226
Post the moons.

>>23369014
Probably just some random ass weeb

>>23369014
No, that's the original, official translation

>>23371919
(it's also completely mistranslated, the translation in general is full of mistakes or the translator just making shit up)

>>23367128
I watched Gothicmade, its a fine roadtrip movie.
There's only a single battle scene, which honestly the best portion was the rise up sequence more then the actual fight.
Though, honestly, the most interesting portionf of the film is almost entirely related to your knowledge of FSS and its theme, that if you just watch it without knowing that, it will be a very hollow movie.

>>23372465
What are GTM fights even like because even reading the manga I struggle to get a good impression of how these things are supposed to move in combat

>>23372818
AFAIK they're moving super fast despite their size and gangly shape

>>23372841
Did Nagano always imagine Mortarheads or Machine Messiahs to move that fast? Or was the original OVA an accurate adaptation of the general speed

>>23373003
The OVA fight is sorta moving in slow-mo but it's not well conveyed. There was an ancient fan made 3d movie of the Jagd Mirage running around and wrecking shit which seems more authentic to the manga. At least the stats on the MH seem to indicate they're quite fast.

>>23373074
I love it
>>23373003
I mean there's a reason it basically requires a genetically engineered super soldier's descendants AND an artificial gynoid supercomputer to fight in these things.
Yes, they have developed and deployed MHs that don't require them, but iirc they perform like shit next to the real deal

>>23367005
>he believes corporate propaganda
Keeping it this way gives him higher profits through the simple power of fomo

>>23370723
todos espanolos son cobardos
la prueba es la corrida
maricon

>>23373074
It's extremely well conveyed in the OVA, KOG slices another MH in half before the head it dropped a second ago even hits the ground. There's also sonic boom when it draws its sword. It's slowed down for human eyes but that's how the genetically engineered super pilots would see the movements.

>>23373167
That's an incredible attention to detail that just went completely over my head when I watched this for the first time.

>>23372818
They move like jet planes. Sends out sword wave and shoots gut blow like a gun. But due to the fact that they made the fight to be pre-Fatima era Joker Calendar. They only do the basic stuff in the movie. No fancy sword techs like Sonic Blade in the movie.

>>23373167
Too bad the OVA never got an English dub.

>>23373101
Love these FMV graphics.

>>23373101
Is this .webm from some unreleased PS1 game?

>>23380721
It's fan made.

Question is, at what rate will the English volumes come out? I know the Japanese volumes have been coming out at a rate of one volume every two years, but still.

>>23366872 (OP)
What takes 3/4 of a year to get something like this together?

>>23386519
It depends on the year but we are probably getting 1 volume per year 3 volumes straight if things goes right from 2025-2026

Now are they going to actually stick with it or is it going to quietly disappear like the last two or three times this has been attempted?

>Titan
So it's going to be sloppy machine translated trash. Of fucking course FSS would get monkeypawed.

it's fine, the only good parts of the manga were already translated anyway

>>23388824
Nagano is super autistic and Newtype is copublishing so it has a good chance at being good.

>>23391539
oooh, nice.

>>23373167
Great robot eyes.
