mpchi Posted October 14, 2006 Posted October 14, 2006 Not sure if I like the designs. And why a new Giant Robo series when the older OVA show was excellent and not that old? Quote
JELEINEN Posted October 14, 2006 Posted October 14, 2006 Not sure if I like the designs. And why a new Giant Robo series when the older OVA show was excellent and not that old? Well, the OVA wasn't really Giant Robo. It was all of Yokoyama's manga characters put into a whole new setting. While this new series doesn't look to be a direct adaptation of the manga, it'll probably be closer than the OVA ever got. As for how old the OVA is, the first episode came out almost 15 years ago. I'm not so sure of the character designs either. When I see designs that simplistic, it makes me think that they're going to really skimp on the animation budget. Quote
Keith Posted October 14, 2006 Posted October 14, 2006 The designs (so far) are definately ass. The original OVA reached epic awesomeness that warrented its 6-7 year release schedule. While I hope I'm wrong, this doesn't look like it's going to come close in any form of quality. Luckily it still looks to be in the early stages, so hopefully much will change. Quote
wolfx Posted October 14, 2006 Posted October 14, 2006 Don't know nothing about giant robo....but why do all of them have some kinda egyptian design to them? Is it something like Rahxephon with some egyptian myth behind the story? Quote
