What is the Yea Forums equivalent to Bubblegum Crisis?

You could have EASILY said Ironman or something like that.

user, can you expand on this? What happened, and what was the spin-off?

There isn't one. Bubblegum Crisis is a fairly unique-ish premise. It certainly stands out as its own thing at any rate.

Is it weird that I want comic!Peni and movie!Peni to meet and become best friends?

Never mind, found it:

>Masaki Kajishima and Hiroki Hayashi, who both worked on the Bubblegum Crisis OAVs, cite the show as being the inspiration for their harem series Tenchi Muyo! Ryo-Ohki. In an interview with AIC, Hayashi described Bubblegum Crisis as "a pretty gloomy anime. Serious fighting, complicated human relationships, and dark Mega Tokyo." They thought it would be fun to create some comedy episodes with ideas like the girls going to the hot springs, but it was rejected by the sponsors. He also said that there was a trend to have a bunch of characters of one gender and a single one of the other gender, and asked what if Mackey (Sylia's brother) was a main character, reversing the Bubblegum scenario. This idea then became the basis for Tenchi. Hayashi said that Mackey is "sort of" the original model for Tenchi.

Holy shit, that's crazy. I had no idea Bubblegum Crisis is the reason for the modern harem plague.

Somehow, I keep thinking I'm the only person who watched and enjoyed Bubblegum Crisis. Glad to see others liked it too.

I want to do that now.

>Is it weird that I want comic!Peni and movie!Peni to meet and become best friends?
no, you just have a soul

Its sad how many boomer anime fandoms I got the tail end of will eventually fade away due to the fickleness of Japanese fans. BGC, Escaflowne, Ranma, Akira, even things that are still running like Guyver and Alita really have little to no relevance with modern anime fans.

I love Bubblegum Crisis so badly, goodness.

Me too, it is sad.

your lucky Gundam became a soulless huck of its self.

Not really. You've got the hardcore otaku who are heavily focused on the current stuff but outside a couple of the classics largely haven't experienced anything from prior to their interest starting, the casuals who simply follow what's popular, and the normies who don't really have a lasting interest in the majority of what's put out. You've got to consider the age of some of those examples.

It would be so fucking easy too. It's not like Bubblegum Crisis is high art, they just made their characters cute and cool and had really good mechanical deigns.

You know I think it's really saying a lot when Japan just let their female heroes be sexy and cool without making a fuss over things and they ended up just being much better characters for it.

I'm genuinely surprised that Ranma hasn't been given some kind of modern reboot already. It seems like it has a nostalgic following to warrant it, and its premise lends itself surprisingly well to modern anime culture.

Kyoani does Ranma would be a slam dunk, basically just Dragon Maid with kung fu and genderswapping.

Ranma is kind of a concept that could only exist at that time

now it's either too fetishistic to pass, people would either call it exploitative or degenerate, no middle ground.

Yes. Yes he did. Animators had to put in a lot of effort. And I'm aware it's unfair to compare high budget movies to TV anime but there was a lot more labors of love when it took time to make stuff.

Now that techniques and tools are much more advanced i find it pretty inexcusable that animators don't take advantage of them to obtain similar results.

Sometimes you see impressive, beautiful backgrounds, Gravity Falls had them, even SU did nice backgrounds a few times, but the bar is still very low.

No, it's boring as shit and the mech design is ugly and dull.

Yoshiaki Kawajiri might have made shlock but by god was it pretty, stylish and well animated shlock. Shame the experience of doing that Highlander anime movie (specifically getting dicked around by Hollywood producers hacking the thing to pieces) pissed him off enough that he effectively retired with a proper Ninja Scroll 2 done the way he wants to do it (i.e. him doing the directing, designs and storyboarding with minimal interference) being the only thing that could ever bring him back.

Kyoani Ranma would be utter shit. Honestly the thing that would probably be best suited for them would be adapting Kenrantaru Grande Scene since, whatever issues I have with them, the dancing scenes would be animated decently.

Though speaking of Ranma I'm honestly surprised that some committe/studio didn't try to push for a new Yawara series leading up to the Olympics given what a massively successful series that was (it aired in the time slot right after Ranma and got way better ratings).

Kind of a shame that that's the closest we'll get to an older anime aesthetic and even then it's just modern dark battle seinen art style with a somewhat neon gloss. Not really any different than anything I'd see out of shit like Tokyo Ghoul or Jagaaaaaan.

out of all the things, this is a reason? are you a faggot or something?

makes me feel like wanting to make animated stuff.

Making very detailed power armor suit characters using this method is so wonderful

No, it's some other grumpy bearded New England comic book author that was influenced by anime in the 80s. Yes. Yes, it's him.

So who were Warren's biggest artistic influences besides the obvious ones of Shirow and Sonoda?

Bubblegum Crisis has an American comic book, fuck off. You think Yea Forums watches anything from the 80s that's isn't dragonball? You're stupid.

I discovered it through Gunsmith Cats, and damn did it make me fall in love with Sonoda's work.

It's incredibly hard to even get one of those things in Yea Forums productions, let alone the whole collection.

would like to see more superheroes using mechs but what kind of villain would they be fighting?

I wish the original OVA got to reach its intended conclusion--this franchise never got the success it deserved.

Bad dudes in robots obviously.

Guyver's dead as hell, man. They're never finishing it.

I like the idea of people being born with superpowers, but most of them either keep their head down or turn into villianous assholes. There are almost no actual super-'heroes'.

The powered armor team fills that role instead. They don't have powers, just advanced technology, but their job is to take down actual supers with impossible abilities.

I should watch BGC

do something like Patlabor or this

Attached: LABOR.png (636x432, 446K)

First off, the term is giant robot, second, power armour is explicitly under the robot genre and is considered 'mecha' by the people who make the shows. Such delineations do not exist in Japan; they are imposed upon it by Western audiences who usually have very little experience of shows revolving around robots or powered armour.

Second, /m/ is EXPLICITLY for shows like Bubblegum Crisis and Yea Forums barely cares about anything that isn't currently airing.

Another silly made up rule that isn't respected at all in Japan who actually make the shows. Using the term mecha and imposing the 'well you need to pilot it' is a Western affectation mostly to try and pretend you're not watching either a superhero or a giant robot show. A Gundam is as much a giant robot as a Labor, an AT, a Buster Machine, a Heavy Metal, etc, etc, etc and they're the same Tetsujin 28, Giant Robo, etc.

Now the distinction between a giant robot and power armour is easier to make but it's still blurred; and then you have shows where people pilot their giant robots from within power armour (like, uh, Bubblegum Crisis for example where you have the motorslaves, where the bikes of the Knight Sabers transform into robots controlled by the Sabers in their hardsuits).

Most shows based around power armour tend to draw from sentai and such, but there again isn't a distinction drawn between them by the Japanese.

sentai also has giant robots and kaiju in it

thanks user!

warren's old stuff is strangely hard to find

fuck synthwave, this is the shit i want to see return

We do need more stuff like this.

I wish Ironheart was actually written as a good girl.

It's not actually a rule by anyone in the West either. The actual distinction is that powered armor is worn while mecha is piloted. However, the West doesn't really have a "mecha" genre to begin with, so such distinctions are kind of moot. You're far more likely to see the mecha stuff divided by how it is used in the story than anything. Transformers is alien invasion, Pacific Rim is giant monster, etc.

Would Kaiju be included into /m/?

>Didn't the TV show also get cancelled
No? It ran it's full 26 episode course. There where rumors of a follow up that never went through but it wasn't cancelled or anything.

Ah, that's what I meant. Looking into it, it's fascinating that ADV wanted to commission anime--it was very ahead of its time, considering what Netflix has been doing now--but it probably contributed to ADV's demise. There just wasn't as big of a market for it back then.

hey fuck you, synthwave is neat too

In Japanese terminology anything with mechanics is mecha. Tanks & planes are mecha. Toasters are /m/, this was determined literally a decade ago, the /m/-tan wields a toaster as his weapon.
But in practice, a power armor/suit is a mini mecha, and therefore /m/. We've gotten away with Berserk threads because of Guts Mechanical arm.

Are there any cartoons/animation at all that still use 2D cels and paint? Even anime that's still hand-drawn gets scanned into computers.

Only real issue I have with Birdy in terms of visuals is that it doesn't have his cooler, more blue/shadow heavy color palette.

There's a softness to the look of traditional hand drawn and painted animation that's lost with digital. Also it's a shame the art of the great OP/ED has died. Stuff in anime tends to be remembered more for the song than the accompanying visuals meaning you're not getting anything that's both nice to hear and nice to look at.

Griffith was going to originally be a girl.

Honestly? Should be TV-14 at least or MA.
Action/Violence should be somewhat similar to the first Robocop.
Characters should remain faithful to the originals (Sylia=Female Batman, Priss=Punk Chick, Linna=Frustrated OL, Nene=Inside Girl/Hacker)
Also, they should invest in puppetry rather than CGI to trigger real uncanny valley from people looking at boomers.
Being realistic, there is no way the story would develop in Tokyo, so it has to be in an earthquake prone city.

Should've stopped giving money to Miura until he finished the story

I'm guessing it'd be set someplace in California to make it more relatable to a Western audience. Even though NYC looks more like Tokyo than LA does, earthquakes happen so rarely that it was legitimately fucking weird when a small one happened a few years back.
Setting it in NYC would make Konya wa Hurricane a bit more literal, though.

What about SF?
The image of the Frisco Bay split in half with the ruins of the bridge being overlooked by and ever bigger one could give a good vibe of "conglomerates did everything right after the disaster, so clearly they should rule" that pervades in the story

Looking up the skylines for Tokyo (above) and SF (below), I totally see what you mean. Plus keeping the setting in California would allow BGC to keep a bit more of its Blade Runner inspiration, even if it wouldn't necessarily be set in LA like Blade Runner was.

Well the whole premise of the original was that Tokyo got so fucked that they had to bring in a lot of other countries to help fix shit. I think Linna is the only pure Japanese girl. Nene's part Russian and who knows what the fuck nationality Stingray is.

Yawara's a top tier waifu and it's a damn good series. It's definitely a product of its time but that's part of the charm; it's pure Bubble Era kino which makes it super comfy.

That said I don't like Yawara as drawn for the Complete Edition covers. She's still pretty but in Urasawa's current style she lacks the cuteness that really made her appealing and something about it just feels off.

What?

>Nene's part Russian and who knows what the fuck nationality Stingray is.
American or Brit, Priss' probably also a half from someone stationed in Okinawa

Comparing the original volume art to the Perfect Edition vol. 1, I can see that the original edition has her features drawn closer to the center of her face--it's a technique that's also done for chibi characters to make them look cuter. The Perfect Edition draws her features more outward and realistically. Is that the difference you mean?

Literally what I said, Berserk's been milked for money, so Miura has no reason to push himself to keep writing since he's already financially secure.

The original manga used a darker colour scheme. I'd like to see a prequel manga using these designs.

My nigga.

Pretty much. She still has the '80s moe aesthetic in the original since it was published during the peak of that design phase. The redone version looks more prettier than cute which I don't think works as well for Yawara.

Does that even have translations? Mangadex has a listing for it but no chapters. Pic related is my current favorite ongoing series though. I mean technically ballet isn't a sport but there is a lot of attention paid to the competitions (in the magazine raws the characters just finished up the YAGP finals in New York which is IRL; tanks are still in the middle of it) so close enough.

I appreciate that you like it sir.

I don't have anymore drawings of that suit, I wish I did.

No problem, it's cool that you made something to begin with, and that honest dedication is something I like seeing. Does this character have a backstory?

Believe it or not, I was maybe/maybe not going to make a full length animated film using watercolor paint to make it very detailed and the tone would be more mature, dark and gritty.

I say go for it. Even if it doesn't turn out well, you can at least say you did it. Life's too short to spend it wondering what could have been.
Also, nice digits.

Yes, she works inside the secret military service branch of the Avaadian Empire, it exists where a part of Russia used to be, she works as a military agent and a trooper.

Break a leg. Making something isn't always easy, but even the less rewarding parts have something to teach you. We live in a time when watching and making stuff is easier than it's ever been, so it's best to make use of it. I'm glad I could be of help.

Actually there are quite a lot of people like her, it's closer to around 1,000 service members.
She works mostly alone on her missions, the assignments range from assassination, spying, rescue, counter terrorism, sabotage and even just normal patrol, much like her fellow soldiers.

Thank you, it's a real pleasure hearing you say those words of advice and encouragement.
Maybe we can work on it together someday, who knows.

I see. So is it a "war is hell" kind of storyline?

Actually, It's kinda hard to tell what it is atm...
I wanted it to fall between calm and hardcore.

Are you going to post your draft of this somewhere? Maybe I could look it over.

I actually have all of this down in my head, sadly there is no draft, I don't know if I can make a draft right now, I'm also forming the concepts fairly careful.

I guess you could get it down in notes first, even if they're haphazard. You wouldn't want to forget details down the line.

I'll be right back, there's something I must take care of.

Yes, you're right.

I'm back, I'll jot some notes later.

He should finish the story...

The second half of this show is kino.

Big Hero 6, basically.

>When scifi channel devoted a whole day to the ova.

Good times.

God, I miss the 80s-90s anime style.

Attached: Lunar.Silver.Star.Story.full.801229.jpg (1024x768, 283K)

My only beef with it is the fucking mascots/familiars

Much like how a lot of what people like about retro video games was only present because of the hardware limitations of the time, what anime was like then was due to economic and cultural trends, as well as the medium on which it was spread. None of those things will ever come back because what made them exist in the first place will never come back.

And as technology continues to advance we'll move further and further away from those limitations that made those artistic creations possible and in to the triteness that we have now.

This is not a case of nostalgia as I was born after this "golden age" ended, nor is it a case of "le wrong generation", but just the reality of the way things are going: worse and worse over time. It's like anti-Whig History, were things are just regressing to a worse state as time goes on.

But going back to animation, one thing that these limitations caused, which I love, is how vibrant, or dark, the light sources were. You'd have lights made by shining a light through the back of the cell, and it would bleed slightly in to the surrounding scenery, as well as create a "real" light which digital media just can't capture. it's the same with blacks, which were blacker due to the nature of CRT televisions at the time.

What are you talking about?

Where do you think it should have started off from the 97 series?

I have the funny feeling that there are more shows like BGC, but they're pretty rare.

Oh wait I remember hearing about that, I'll have to watch that show, looks good.

There are two different continuities. One a is dramedy and the other is a serious thriller.

I already like them both.

The show was pretty bad, but man that OP slaps

I suppose some shows from the united states might have more power armor teams.

They're both a bit whacky and serious at times.

I agree, especially considering that Bubblegum Crisis' title is a reference to the Japanese bubble economy, which burst after the 80s and put the country into a recession that still affects them today.
I'm still hopeful that the development of new technologies, while it might not cause a return to the old methods of making things, would lead to some pretty cool shit down the road.
Still, the essence of cyberpunk will be around simply because parts of the world WILL be in dystopian crisis. The indie game Va11 HallA was made by a couple of Venezuelans, for example, and shit's real dark over there.

No, but I have slept a while.

Alright, just make sure to get to it.

I've made Lancer's Personal Info card.

Anything about her personality? Likes and dislikes? Even a favorite food can say something about a character and make them feel more real.

She loves reading, watching movies, biking, paper crafts, fishing, collecting art and rocks and she likes listening to music

You should probably trim that a bit.

You can start off with limited notes about the characters and setting, and expand on them once you've gotten the gist of it down.
atla.fans/archives/ipbible.pdf
Here's the IP bible for Avatar the Last Airbender. The final product was expansive, but it all started from simple notes.

Yeah that sounds pretty okay,
I'll do that.

Is this show good?

Kiss my ass

>Still, the essence of cyberpunk will be around simply because parts of the world WILL be in dystopian crisis. The indie game Va11 HallA was made by a couple of Venezuelans, for example, and shit's real dark over there.

I'd argue cyberpunk is even more relevant everywhere else due to the near universality of surveillance states and economic dependence on technology. Not as flashy as fighting robots with mech suits but Amazon deploys drone fleets over cities and Facebook keeps profiles of you without even having an account just because your face metrics showed up in the background of somebody elses' photo.

Any progress on those notes?

I wrote a little bit, still working on it

Alright. Do you have a plan on where to post it, in case this thread dies before you're ready?
