    Because Lion Force Voltron ran twice as long as Golion. True story. Half the lion Voltron episodes were produced for american use only and are not a part of Golion.

    Of course not. Most of them are sexualizing girls too young to have jiggly parts.... Wait, was I supposed to be defending anime?

    I far prefer the look of the Toynami, actually. Curvy Voltron just looks WRONG.
  4. JB0
    That... TECHNICALLY counts.

    True. Ange also has transforming jetbikes. Which is pretty much the only thing cooler than transforming motorcycles. So that's two things going for it. That said, you know the show is bad when even the main character is talking about it.

    Cross Ange is Valvrave 2.0.
  7. JB0
    Cross Ange is a horrible trainwreck of terrible writing and bad ideas. And I can't look away.

    I prefer when they turn into weird robot-plane hybrids.

    He can't be an enemy spy, we never ran a kickstarter.

    At least they had a REASON for all the boats to be female. And to be honest, I still smile when I think about that scene. Man, is EVERYONE watching that show right now? I may have to move it to next on my list of "things I keep meaning to do".

    My vote is for Titan.

    I've got it! The Delta symbolizes THREE hero valks, that combine into a larger robot. And they have three different combinations. ... Wait, no, that was Aquarion. Never mind. ... Or possibly Getter Robo. Macross Aquarion Delta Robo?

    That MP doesn't have a rubsign. What a gyp.

    Speaking of uncomfortable... I've started rewatching Gunslinger Girl by way of introducing some other folks to it. I love how they never start trying to tell you what you should think about this shiznit, and the show just lets it sit there. We know none of these girls had a long or happy future ahead of them BEFORE they were turned into brainwashed* cyberassassins, and we know they STILL don't have a long or happy future ahead of them now. Beyond that? The show's willing to just let the creepiness loiter around like an elephant in the room until you want to deal with it. It won't call attention to it, won't tell you how you should feel about it. It's just THERE. *With Rico being notably less brainwashed. But then, her parents literally sold her to the government, why would they WANT to erase those memories?

    Macross Δ, featuring the new Valkyrie, VF-31 "DeLorean"

    A Trek reference was the only logical choice.

    I think it's just that finding ANY class-M planet is a big deal. Even if you aren't the first or the best, you're still one of the elite few.

    The upside is that print-on-demand is reserved for stuff that's not expected to sell well enough to justify gearing up for an actual pressing. So it's one more log in ye olde "Robotech is dead" fire.

    Freezing was "take a mildly interesting comic book and rework it to be more T&A heavy." Which is impressive, given the source material.

    Attention, carbon unit. This is VFX AI Prototype #1. Input and process my song. Basara: "Man, everyone's stealing my schtick these days... "

    Personally, I think a combination of the two would be great. Destiny's FPS parts combined with Borderlands' RPG parts. ... But we'd probably get Borderlands FPSing and Destiny RPG instead. And then I would cry. And meet somewhere in the middle on gear. Borderlands rains far too much gear down, but there's usually something decent in the pile. Destiny has an appropriate drop RATE, but the quality is skewed so far south you'll never see anything useful.

    I'll get an Eva Prime if it comes with a Shinji Roller. Just take a regular Rollar and put a sticker on the side saying "I'm not afraid I'm not afraid."

    Indeed. It wasn't noted by Dark of the Moon, but WAS by the 80s cartoon. As I believe even Bay is more intelligent than THAT(and Dark of the Moon was CLEARLY written by someone that had seen the cartoon), I assume that the effects of the space bridge were preventing Cybertron from exerting an immediate tidal effect on Earth. Which is also why Cybertron would implode in the bridge instead of merely being cut in two when the bridge closed across the part that was already through. That's my story, and I'm stickin' to it.

    I hadn't even noticed that! Britai is the focal point of the love triangle this time! ... Actually, that would be hilarious. I kinda want to see this.

    Crazy Prime keeps his word. He promised to protect humanity. He never promised to stop Megatron and Sentinel from imploding their homeworld. Though the actual state of Cybertron is only implied. Only person willing to say anything was teenage girl in Age of Extinction, and she said "They don't have a home. It got blown up." (Some lines are memorably bad. This is one of them.) As she is not an astronaut, nor a Cybertronian, nor a high-ranking government official, I take her evaluation of the situation with a grain of salt. But it looked pretty bad for Cybertron at the end of Dark of the Moon. If not destroyed, it's at least pretty solidly wrecked. And they ALREADY had the "our planet is dead, without the Allspark Cube all hope is gone" issue. And Prime used THAT as a knife and vaporized it to heck way back in '07(And that was after Sam IMPROVED the plan). Even if Cybertron is still MOSTLY intact... it's still a dead world incapable of sustaining life. And it's ALL CRAZY PRIME'S FAULT. Worst Autobot leader EVER. And he won that title against Grimlock and Hot Rod, for Primus' sake!
