Thread 23615186

Finally got to this after having its name in the back of mind for 20 years - solid prototype Muv Luv setting, a bunch of good characters and then proceeded to spin its wheels after 2 eps until it ends with nothing having happened. If I didn't know any better I'd think it was one of those half-assed anime they make to promote light novels

Stop gangstalking me, op

eh, also had it on my To-search list for decades plural, thanks for summarizing what it was
I do prefer their mech design over Muvluv's.
I'll still take the skinsuit of muvluv.

Man, this takes me back. I've never actually played the game myself, but I remember learning about it in this thread 9 years ago.

It was extremely advanced for its time.

I'm more surprised you bothered to look up a nine year old thread. Even if the game is so obscure it's (probably) the only thread that would appear doing a search (joking).

I'm not OP, but I am stalking you and I am not going to stop.

Yeah, it's been a while since I watched it, but I remember it being pretty interesting and well executed in a lot of ways that just makes some bizarre decisions. Doesn't it pivot heavily into being a romance like halfway through? Didn't really mind that, to be honest, but it just seemed very distinct from the start of the show.

If a thread is interesting enough I usually bookmark it. Had this thread bookmarked for years. Wanted to return to it if I ever learned Japanese. (Unfortunately have not)

Yeah it effectively bailed on the mechs and balloon aliens aspect after a few eps to transition to romcom hijinks. Which might be forgiven if not for the fact that the protag devolved into one of those ungodly timid dudes whose entire dialogue became stuttering "I-I-I-I..." for the sole purpose of prolonging everything. I made the mistake of watching Valvrave a few months back and I got enough of that bullshit to last 100 lifetimes
