wolfx Posted July 6, 2006 Posted July 6, 2006 Funky mecha design http://www.flag20xx.net/sakuhin/machine.html A camerawoman follows around a mobile suit group in a not-so-far future setting with global strife. This is a mecha series, but it has a little similarity to current geopolitical situation. I’m not a big fan of the character designs, though the premise and the fact that this is a mecha series has me interested at least a little. Technically the first episode of this show has already aired, and the second episode is due in a few days, but it’s on Bandai Channel, which is a premium service. source: http://randomc.animeblogger.net/category/random-musings Quote
GRAND CANNON Posted July 6, 2006 Posted July 6, 2006 Hey, if there's a group that picks this up......I'll take a peek. Thanks for the info. Quote
Cacophanus Posted July 6, 2006 Posted July 6, 2006 (edited) Mecha design is by Miyatake in case anyone is wondering. Edited July 6, 2006 by Cacophanus Quote
yellowlightman Posted July 6, 2006 Posted July 6, 2006 Most promising looking new mecha anime series in recent memory. No girlie little brightly colored mecha, realistic more mature looking characters and an interesting sounding story. Awesome. Quote

No girlie little brightly colored mecha, realistic more mature looking characters and an interesting sounding story.Awesome. 414185[/snapback] Agreed. Although I'm not too fond of the CGI mecha. Maybe if I see it in action it'll look great, but the stills are kind of blah. Quote
chrono Posted July 7, 2006 Posted July 7, 2006 (edited) There is a trailer out. http: //raspberryheaven.net/~adtrw/torrents/FLAG_Trailer_1.wmv. torrent But damn. This thing has WAYYYYYYYYYY too much 3D in it! Even some of the characters are 3D. The HAVWC looks ok and almost typical for Miyatake for his functional rounded mechs. Edited July 7, 2006 by chrono Quote
Mr March Posted July 7, 2006 Posted July 7, 2006 It looks quite interesting. I really like the mecha design and the style of character animation has a nice grounded motif. This might be something to watch for in the coming months. Thanks for the post. Quote
Brewtal Posted July 8, 2006 Posted July 8, 2006 Ugh CG. Mecha designs look interesting though. Hopefully it'll get picked up so I can rent it. (Not a big fan of watching stuff on the computer.) Quote
GRAND CANNON Posted July 8, 2006 Posted July 8, 2006 (edited) Just watched the trailer, looks interesting to me. Now to wait for more.... Here's a rapidshare link, too: http://rapidshare.de/files/25024638/FLAG_Trailer_1.wmv.html Edited July 8, 2006 by GRAND CANNON Quote
GRAND CANNON Posted July 20, 2006 Posted July 20, 2006 (edited) Raw version of Episode 1 is out. Like how it looks and hope a group picks it up now because I'm very intrigued now.

Skullsixx Posted July 21, 2006 Posted July 21, 2006 Looks damn cool from the site, but I can't get the trailer to view or open... oh well. Quote
wolfx Posted July 21, 2006 Author Posted July 21, 2006 Me neither. I thought my connection just sucked. Quote

Mr March Posted July 21, 2006 Posted July 21, 2006 Just watched the first episode. Not bad, a little slow, but interesting. I definitely want to see more. I also really like the animation. It's been a long time since I've watched a non-subtitled, japanese language only anime episode. I'm having flashbacks of junior high school and poor quality VHS tapes of Akira without subtitles...LOL Quote
grss1982 Posted July 22, 2006 Posted July 22, 2006 (edited) sorry about that posted on the wrong thread. Edited July 22, 2006 by grss1982 Quote
yellowlightman Posted July 22, 2006 Posted July 22, 2006 Thanks for the link Grand Cannon. I watched most of episode one and I gotta say I'm very interested. The photography angle is pretty neat and I'm curious to see where they take the whole thing. Looks like the main character will be embedded with a mecha unit? Really hoping someone starts fansubbing this. Quote
GRAND CANNON Posted August 8, 2006 Posted August 8, 2006 The Raws for Eps 2 and 3 have been released, but does anyone have any word on a sub group? Quote
Lonely Soldier Boy Posted August 9, 2006 Posted August 9, 2006 (edited) Hey, Grand Cannon. Long time no see. I liked the first episode. Very good quality for a series, but too slow for my tastes (and I'm a fan of the original Solaris movie!). I hope that improves on the next few episodes. Edit: Anyone have the link for Ep. 2 yet? Edited August 9, 2006 by Lonely Soldier Boy Quote

GRAND CANNON Posted August 10, 2006 Posted August 10, 2006 Just got home from work and found the link ..... good news indeed! Quote
bsu legato Posted August 10, 2006 Posted August 10, 2006 I'll second the "Shinsen Subs" distaste, and gladly re-download the episode again from any other group that decides to tackle this project. Quote
JELEINEN Posted August 11, 2006 Posted August 11, 2006 Well, it makes a lot more sense with translation. Anyone else get the fealing that this one isn't going to have a happy ending? Quote
bsu legato Posted August 11, 2006 Posted August 11, 2006 Anyone else get the fealing that this one isn't going to have a happy ending? 424218[/snapback] Should we start taking bets on how she dies? Quote
