It's kind of polarizing.

I think it ruins Char's character development from the first two series.

I mean, that scene was perfect. Also, love your sig.

Fxeni

I like the Nu Gundam. If there's any one thing that I liked in CCA, it's that.

Protoman Blues

Yeah. I was also a fan of that Gundam as well.

Dr. Wily II

Oh PB...

Yesssss. Can't wait.

Reconguista is over. A shame, I really enjoyed the show.

The ending was about what I expected from Tomino but the final battle between Bellri and Mask was good and really well choreographed. Them also briefly going to this underground part which I assume is supposed to be the remains of Jaburo was a really nice touch:

And Tomino gave himself a cameo:



Pretty neat.[/spoiler]

Overall the show was definitely not a masterpiece but I think it put across the message it was trying to tell quite well - at least, I got it anyway!

I guess all that's left is Try but I'm not expecting anything at all, that show has since long disappointed me. Perhaps I just expected to much after the spectacular first season. Origin isn't much to get excited over either. I hope they announce something else that I can look forward to sometime soon!

Protoman Blues

Try is definitely not as good as the first season, and I think it mostly has to do with the characters & lack of good rivals. The first season had some legit rivalries and purpose to the fights involved. They built the fights up from the very beginning, letting them culminate in the World Tournament. With Try, the majority of the fights are just kind of there. Sure, they look awesome and are over the top, but there's not the same sense of satisfaction when the main crew win. There were only two rivalries that kinda felt genuine from the beginning, and both involved Yuuma. He had the most character growth.

Fxeni

Yeah, most of the rivalries that were present felt shoehorned in compared to the first season. Thank goodness for Yuuma.

Although it's been picking up, I haven't really been feeling Reconguista all that much. The writing hasn't been up to par overall compared to say Turn A or most of the other UC offerings. I haven't seen the last episode as of yet though. (and yeah, from the pictures you posted that's clearly supposed to be the remains of Jaburo)

Origin is... well, Origin. I like it, but I know what to expect from the manga. I will say the CG came across better than I expected it to, but I'm still going to miss more traditional animation (well, as traditional as it was at least).

Archer

I can definitely agree that Reconguista wasn't up to par but I still enjoyed it anyway. I just generally enjoy Tomino's stuff in general, though that is a rather unpopular opinion these days.

Dr. Wily II

So... Final episode of Try...

I'm watching you all. Always watching.

Fxeni

Well... that certainly escalated quickly.
