No, we got new Fafner a week or two ago.
Luis Anderson
yes, anime is dead, there are only moetrash shows now
Kayden Miller
Yes
Isekai is the best genre now

Jaxson Nelson

Parker Clark

Ryder Watson
I kind of liked it.
Camden Garcia
No. They're just having a series of bad slips with their tropes
>Recent Gundams are all failing because they act too stupid either too early or at very important moments
>Delta was a snooze thanks to the "Triangle" being utterly meaningless
>Code Geass just went full fucking aliens
>Aquarion Evol drug the name through the dirt so bad that the next installment was essentially unrelated to the OG premesis
>Who knows what's going on with VOTOMS
Mecha will get its glory back eventually though.
Hudson Collins
>Mecha is everything wrong with the industry
>Mecha gets its own board
>Isekai is now everything wrong woth the industry
Does this mean we will get an Isekai board?

Gundam Thunderbolt gives me hope we enter an age of high quality mech OVAs
Julian Campbell
That movie is the first Gundam I've liked in like, five years.
Jayden Richardson
Someone just needs to figure out how to market these to kids again instead of manchildren stuck in the past
Elijah Evans
Gundam never dies.
Julian Hill

Xavier James
is it gay if I want to fuck Domon's nanobutt bodysuit?
Jaxon Foster
No.
Mason Williams
You meant franxx I imagine.
Zachary Davis
Yes, mecha abandoning it's space opera roots and making it more about young people in charge of space killed the genre.
Everything wrong with mecha stems from replacing average joes with autistics, and newtypes, and otaku.
Alexander Lee
One thing is that mecha isn't cool, but another issue is that almost every mecha series in the last 10+ years has made some dumb mistakes.
We occasionally still see some mecha anime get popular in the wider anime community, but then they end up failing because the creators don't know what they're doing.
Mason Reed
Mecha creators keep making low action, high dialogue shows in a genre that needs more action, and less talk.
The current trend of the genre seems to be convinced that economics needs to be solved with giant robots and battleships.
Cameron Scott
Imagine talking shit about mecha when you haven't even watched Fafner.
Nolan Harris
You mean the kids who grew up on shit like BnH and Isekais?
No thanks
