Dawn of the final day for MJP

(didn't see a thread in the catalog)

Whoa, really? Pretty close to S2

Do you guys think MJP killed mecha battles for awhile now? Or did it challenge them?

It taught that you can make good looking CGI battles with enough effort. I'll give it that.

Count me down as happy that there's no spoilers for the last episode. Can't wait to go in to it fresh and then come here and chat with folks about it. Hoping it's crazy awesome. Though, there's a little piece of me that hopes it ends on a massive, massive cliffhanger. Like, Lumes piercing what looks like the cockpit of Blue 1 while Rose 3 gets in the line of fire of the Star Rose's cannons massive.

Hiraiface would only ever look appropriate in an anime where every single character is a 2000 year old inanimate roman statue.

Goddamn crunchyroll.

Besides kojima, who would You like to make the game? And what type of game, RTS, RPG,ZOE type shooter or a musou type?

>>9660370
Has to be ZoE style, which already has the "slaughter hundreds of drones per level" thing that Musou games have but with more movement in all 3 dimensions.

The only other alternative is something akin to those Macross Frontier/30th games.

>>9660370
ZOE probaby. I guess I wouldn't mind an RPG game. Would not like a Musou type. As for an RTS well it depends I guess.

>>9660370
What game would you like?

>>9660638

I'm torn between a straightforward Zoe shooter and a hybrid with Zoe gameplay and RPG elements like creating your own prince team and mech or roleplaying one of the rabbits. With armored core level customization.

Fantastic ending. Pit crews are still bros.

So did the ending feel conclusive or was it open ended?

>>9660735
Open ended. While the gate collapsed, the Wulgaru king believes the humans might be the key to their races evolution or something.

Oh and 50% chance Jiart is dead.

>>9660751
So is it a decent ending point or not?

>>9660787
I enjoyed it quite a bit. Enough for a second series but they closed enough of the arcs to not be a complete cliff-hanger.

Loved the music too.

>>9660795

Damnit, I can't wait till I get home from work. The wait is killing me. Did the Rabbits at least have more badass moments?

So did Asagi actually do anything?

>>9660824
Kill a lot of grunts. Killed two Wulgaru commanders with the team. Give orders competently in episode 8.

>>9660829
So he was worthless as usual and didn't do anything in the finale?

Cool, as suspected.

>>9660808
Ange and Chandra helped to defend the Star Rose with Daneel.

>The Hero even if he is alive (which they hinted wasn't the case from his lack of response) would be severely crippled now.
>Wulgaru on the other hand still have nigh unlimited forces on hand, two of their strongest generals are still alive.
>Jiart may possibly still be alive and roaming the Solar System
>Although they won all they've really done is bought time till another gate shows up.

I loved how straightforward this show was. It was a mecha show that actually wanted to be a mecha show first and foremost, it wasn't something else with mechs thrown in. Izuru was a fairly refreshing MC, the dynamic between the main cast members was great, and mecha designs were great and the battles looked surprisingly good, it actually made me think that CGI mechs might be okay. It's totally set up for a second season and I hope it gets one.

But the hyoomans managed to take out the immediate threat and stop the invasion, allowing them time to rebuild. The destruction of the gate at that time also stopped the invasion of earth and pretty much saved humanity from total annihilation. It's a heavy victory, but a victory nonetheless.

He visibly curled his lips upwards into a smile despite his state when everyone found him. Izuru's pretty much alive.

Everything else, maybe, but humanity ultimately won and staved off annihilation. They'll likely hold them off long enough to rebuild as best as possible.


Unrelated, I'm incredibly surprised at how relatively 'clean' this finale was. Yeah, we may be getting a second season, but it's about this time in many a mecha show that characters start biting the dust. The only definite casualty in the final battle was Lutiel. And maybe Jiart, but his fate is unconfirmed.

would have been one hell of an ironic twist if Izuru had accidentally offed Kei.

Yeah, that was an "I did it, I survived" smile.

>>9661300
There's no way they're dropping a star like Midorikawa if the show is getting a continuation.

Also, he needs to have some sort of confrontation with Theoria.

So with that major cliffhanger, I guess season 2 is pretty much confirmed, eh?

Fingers crossed then.

Also, dat final fight: we V2 & G Gundam now!

Also, the "Julia" that Commander Simon said, was he referring to Teoria?

>>9659457

What grape commercials?

>>9661341
The woman who created the Juria-System with Teoria's help.
I bet she's also Asagi and Izuru's mom.
She transferred her consciousness in Red 5
We EVA now

>>9661358

So we didn't see or heard about her before that slip of tongue of Simon, right? Because I don't remember them referring to her before.

>>9661358
Izuru's mom was directly said to be Teoria though.

>>9661358
Asagi and Izuru don't have the same mom.

So is RED FIVE evil or something?

>>9661351
They apparently had some kind of Grape promotion event which did really well according to their Facebook.

>>9661372

Red Five is basic instincts to RIP AND TEAR. Not evil, just raw and dangerous if unrestrained.

After watching the finale, I have to say one thing.

I'm disappointed that Izuru and Jiart's fight was so god damn long. It's not suspenseful that way it just gets boring when it's quick attack spam. There is no proper punch/counter-punch, so it wasn't actually all that interesting to me. Your own mileage may vary.

The show ended well enough, though.

It'll probably be Teoria telling him and Asagi that she's going to be their mother.

(Simon DNA + Juria? DNA) + Vat Womb = Asagi
(Simon DNA + Teoria DNA) + Vat Womb = Izuru

The rest is speculation:
(Rin DNA + Dolphin DNA) + Vat Womb = Kei
(Busty Mechanic DNA + ??? DNA) + Vat Womb = Tamaki
(Manly Mechanics' DNA x3) + Vat Womb = Suruga

>>9661432
Are we sure Tamaki's not the quasi-dolphin? Because it'd explain a few things about squid guts.

>>9661432
I'm pretty sure Simon would've told Asagi if Teoria was the female DNA used for him. I think we can rule out Teoria as being Asagi's mother.

>>9661438
Tamaki could've used Sperm Whale DNA; eats squid and can tolerate extreme pressures (where the elusive giant squids, their prey, lives).

>>9661440
Might want to read that again. Juria =/= Teoria.

The Manly Mechanics have to be combined with a Hawk or Raptor; it would explain how he became such a "featherweight" but have amazing accuracy at range.

I kind of agree. I do think they made some cool use of the wings of light a few times, having Izuru wrap Jiart in them as Jiart tore through them with his swords for instance, but there wasn't a huge amount of it that was really clear as more than back and forth slapping, especially towards the start before Izuru and Jiart transformed. I've found their fights to be a bit too quick to follow properly a lot though, and enjoy looking at the gifs afterward to make out what actually happened during some of the faster exchanges. The fight was still really enjoyable because of the emotion the show wrapped around it with everyone else trying to help Izuru survive and so on though. Delighted to see the show get a second show and set it up well with a few small scenes at the end. Nothing that felt like a cliffhanger or twist. Pretty sure this is my favorite mecha of the last few years now that it's wrapped up it's first season so well.

You know what? I loved this show. The characters are likable and the action was amazing. It never felt dragged out. Even the "filler" moments were used effectively to flesh out the characters (and Tamaki's "plot"). Doberman's death were handled really well.

He's not saying they weren't. He's saying that Teoria's mother may be Juria. She's been mentioned a few times in the show as having helped Teoria escape, but her ultimate fate has never been revealed beyond that.

My favorite part about the Doberman's death, if I can say I have a favorite about something sad, is that there was no sound for the pre-OP portion of the following episode beyond a little chuckle from Chandra after staring at the empty coffins for a minute and seeing Randy's porn stashed in there. Nice to see them give that solemn minute rather than playing for drama using it.

>>9661709

Besides the fact that we don't actually know anything about the manga he's drawing, only one or two of his sketches - it's supposed to be pretty bad by everyone's account. He was only good after Red 5 affected him, and only for a few hours.

So when is the OST going to drop? I don't mean the openings and endings song, but the music played during the episodes.

12/18

Finally got to see it, and it was worth the wait.

This has been one of the most enjoyable series in a long time for me, and it's been a while since I've had an anime that got me that pumped up at the end. Even if we don't get a second season I'm happy with what we got.

9/10 series, it was OK.

>>9662046

dead people can smile now?

I enjoyed Ange's string of mistaken names for Jiart. Specially Potato.

I'm hoping that even though Izuru survived and conquered Red 5, the Walguru blood comes back to haunt him and makes him want to start hunting his prey. I thought that was nice to through in but I wanted him to notice he was becoming Jiart.

>>9662129
>Implying he will pilot again.

>>9662150
His genes were being destroyed when Red 5 had control. Now that he has control over it there are no side effects. Calling it now

>>9662150
Maybe he will need to live inside Red-5, like the player character from ZOE2

>>9662043
9 out of 10 is just okay to you?

It's a /v/ joke.

>>9661239
You can tell they want a second season.

I was pleasantly surprised that Chandra (the last Doberman) survived. Hopefully if there is a 2nd season, it will show him settled down with his waifu and twin sons named Randy and Patrick

>>9662098

Prince Tomato should be his name from now on.

>>9662220

I opened the gif and didn't even notice until you mentioned it.

Holy fuck, it's Majestic Yamada.

>>9662225

That would be cool, except for one change.

Pat is a girl.

>>9661239
>Wulgaru on the other hand still have nigh unlimited forces on hand, two of their strongest generals are still alive.
But won't most of the remaining Wulgaru army die shortly because their supply of cartridges is cut off? Isn't that the whole reason they destroyed the gate?

The King is pretty chill though, maybe he has a countermeasure.

>>9662268
I think Wulgaru live longer than humans. So whatever a short time for them is a longer time for us.

>>9662268
>maybe he has a countermeasure.

Wait, he said "next path of evolution" or some shit like that.

What if he's cool with where the humans are and letting them evolve as a separate branch from the wulgaru? It's stated that humanity was seeded, and the hunt is to collect genes, so maybe the genes of humanity are strong enough to prosper independent of the wulgaru collective and that's part of the big wulgaru plan?

or maybe he'll just summon a really big hyperdimensional battleship and go hell-bent on harvesting every single piece of genetic material from the puny humans.

WE WON'T KNOW UNTIL S2

>>9662296
>Implying Buff McHuge won't use the entire Wulgaru planetoid and transform it into a mecha.

From the left:

> # - Very Good - Pretty Good - Average - Not Very Good - Bad

While not a classic, this was a very fun show and I'd recommend it for viewing. Doesn't take itself too seriously but avoids becoming absolutely nonsensical. I'd rate it a 7 or 8 out of 10. 9 on a good day but probably around 8.5 is right.

>>9662356
Which one was episode 19 again

>>9662356
>>9662377
season 2 confirmed.
potato not dead.

>>9662268
That was assumed if the Wulgaru were trapped in the solar system AFTER the Gate was destroyed. They returned to their territories before that happened.

>>9662398
The one where Randy and Patrick died.

Damn that last episode was really damn good.

The CG of this show continued to impress.

Really hope for a season 2.

>>9661164
That was the most surprising thing of the show.

Can someone make a gift of Red-5's core thrusting its arm through Jiart's unit?
I actually yelled at that part.

>>9662428

it seems they are voting emotionally instead of objectively

>>9662472
No shit?

>>9662440

>>93665754

>>9662296
I think it's something like the game "Destroy all Humans", where the Wulgaru gene pool has stagnated so they need fresh genes from the worlds they seeded to advance as a species. The fact that humanity managed to resist them proved that their genes are worth harvesting.

They lost thousands during that battle.

>>9662569
Your complaint is.. what, the main characters don't die in the final episode?

Is the show markedly improved by killing people off for the sake of killing people off?

>>9662576
And there's my question.

>>9662576
Get off of /m/, Tomino.

>>9662576
no but when they spend a few episodes saying "if you pilot again you will die" and then setting up a big sacrifice for the commander... which amounts to nothing its a little detracting.

>>9662589

a show decides to make fun of death flags
no one dies
your point?

>>9662576
>Is the show markedly improved by killing people off for the sake of killing people off?

It is if you have a show about a war where supposedly the good guys are losing with massive casualties and losses in both men and ship. The impact is lost if the writers and creators fail to show the consequences of the lost battles. Instead when it's glossed over, the war then loses any meaning and just becomes a glorified adventure. But I guess Tamaki and Kei's special day or Asagi and Izuru's interactions with their pit crews are more important overall.

>>9662600
It's like you completely missed the tone of the show.

>>9662604
yea like how no one has ever died in the series- oh wait.

>>9662600
Well, A) not a gritty war drama, and B) the protagonists are genetically engineered ubermensch with top-shelf alien-tech mechs; the "massive casualties and losses in men and ship" apply to the grunts off-camera.

>>9662645

Wasn't there an episode or two in which the main characters grieved over lost mooks? Pretty sure Izuru and Asagi were depressed over it for at least an episode.

Also the parts where they deal with the pressure of having the entire worlds hope placed on them.

>>9662645
>the "massive casualties and losses in men and ship" apply to the grunts off-camera.

Keeping the massive casualties and losses off-camera undermined the central story that it was a war and not just a cool boyhood adventure. Instead much of this anime felt like /a/'s favorite slice-of-life anime with mechs and service instead of a conflict where people were fighting for their right to exist.

>>9662659
That's true to some extent but the show is careful to tell us the numbers when it comes to fleet loss in the battles. They don't mean all that much because we don't know how many men are dying, but it's clear that the Earth is losing a lot of people and resources on the war.

>>9662659
But they're mentioned all the time. The entire first half of the show is everyone moaning about how hard their asses are getting kicked; not just Earth's in general, but the MC's as well. We get triangles on maps blinking and winking out, constant calls of however many percent of forces being annihilated or routed or forced to fall back, casualty figures, and so on.

The show doesn't introduce minor characters just to knock 'em off unceremoniously, and it doesn't come with a massively inflated cast for the purpose of having plenty of dorks to pump for muh drama so they can show how HIGH AND REAL THE STAKES ARE while keeping the important people completely safe. Are you seriously not going to be satisfied unless they parade a series of deaths (named, military, civilian, or otherwise) in front of you to underline the point that yes, Virginia, there is a war going on in this comedy series?

>>9660925
Yeah that anon is a moe-fag.

>>9661164
SPACE YAMADA!!!

This was the most suprising part of the final episode.

>no one died
I am perfectly fine with this. The way the show played out you really could feel the stakes of it all, and whether or not there would be more casualties or not was all up in the air still.

It was to the point where I couldn't even be sure Izuru survived even though they found his core with everyone shouting happily.
When Kei got wrecked earlier I got seriously worried.

It managed to keep things tense, but right at the very, very end, it managed to finally break the tension and make you smile.

>>9662865
Something the show did well, I thought, was being at least somewhat believable with the outcomes of battles. The team wins and lives not because of the timely deployment of some new weapon that was first mentioned that episode, or one character soloing shit that they had built up as an actual threat to him, or "oh no a carrier ship on the ass-end of the system fired a shot at us, better run the fuck away instead of taking an extra second to stab this guy through the cockpit, because I CERTAINLY haven't been dodging these things all fight". Barring, like, one exception.

It's fine to have characters who live through crazy odds. What determines whether they're invincible Jesuses like Kira or not is how believable their escapes are. MJP doesn't go for a lot of the easy clichés; most of the time, one member of the team is saved by SEVERAL OTHER members of the team in some combined effort. Outside of the final fight, anyone of the big bads that goes down does so to everyone at the same time, not one jerk whipping out a supermove. They're all 5v1s, if not even more loaded on the MJP's end from all the support staff.

Didn't Izuru knock back Jiart by expunging his core right into his face and then lock him by throwing said core onto him?

>>9662880

Yes.

This getting into SRW is but inevitable, isn't it?

>>9662914
but it's not super robot.

I bet Asagi will be the new pilot of red 5. Just kidding. But whether he can awaken is not because he isn't half Wulgaru. Juria system is something that the pilot needs to master in order to fully awaken. Watch Asagi be faster than Izuru in S2.

The way I see Izuru's survival thing? Think Folka and Ialdabaoth relationship.
Ialdabaoth was draining Folka until Apotheosis happened. In a sense Izuru was no longer being controlled by Red 5's primal instinct and underwent "Apotheosis" with the new wings of light and all.

>>9662914

Man, this was good and all, but all I was thinking was "Jiart better still be alive." That guy is fun as fuck.

Last episode downgrade wins are my fetish

>>9662941
...I suddenly see a Rival stage of all Midorikawa...is that bad?

Raibaru Joe(Might Gaine): Let's settle this...Senpuuji Maito!
Master Therion(Demonbane): Let's dance, Demonbane...no, Daijuuji Kurou!
Heero Yuy: Show me Relena's enemies, Epyon...
Jiart: My Lamata, come and give me a satisfying battle!
Masaki Andoh: SHUUUUUUUUUUUU!
Li Xingke: Face me, ZERO!

...yes one of those does not belong, but can we blame the character?

>>9662957
Send it to Banpresto, they'll make it happen.
They'll make it fucking happen

>>9662472
One of the notes at the bottom stated that there was some trouble during the streaming of Episode 19 as well as other episodes.

Maybe the stream was just that bad on that day?

Or, alternatively it was due to all the rage after the Dobermans sacrificed themselves ;_;7

>>9662503
My thoughts exactly too.

Now that humanity has proven their superiority compared to other species by fighting back and managing to push back the Wulgaru, they probably decide that we are now worth the hunt.

>>9662957
You forgot Asakim

I was expecting the other Rabbits would at least do something

I always hate it when the "secondary" team members are getting their ass kicked until the main guy goes out and saves the day

In the end of the day most of the other guys' contribution was killing grunts and providing support

>>9662973

Well, let's see.

It took the whole team to kill one general, Klein.

It took the whole team sans Izuru to kille another, Lutiel.

It took Izuru what, four toe-to-toe duels (being saved by his companions a ton of times and nearly dying) as well as sacrificing his own machine to defeat Jiart?

Also it took Ange, Chandra, Teoria, Daneel and a combined fleet barrage to hold the general guy at bay.

Wulgaru are tough, this wasn't a one-man show.

>>9662973

"Getting their ass kicked"?

Aside from Izuru, the only one of all of them who took any measure of significant damage was Kei, and that was only because she rather blindly interrupted Izuru and Jiart's duel to get the former to stop fighting. And even then, she wasn't out of commission.

So... was Ange a boy or a girl?

>>9663024
concensus seems to be female, but Black 6's override personality is male.

>>9662985
I meant in episode 23

>>9662914

The show appeared to have been designed with a checklist of 'Would fit into SRW' being ticked off in mind.

>>9662985

You're forgetting that Asagi almost lost Blue due to energy loss and got it's arms wrecked. And Tamaki got the her wings shorn off, both were by Jiart.

Only one who didn't get some kind of damage was Yellow.

>>9663069
I really doubt it was though.
