+I love the original Gridman, but I honestly preferred Malcolm to Takeshi. Takeshi was shown to have actual brainwashing going on, whereas Malcolm never had any actual influence. While some episodes overplayed him a bit as villainous, the majority of the time he was just a bitter, angry, lonely person that desperately wanted things he couldn’t have and wanted a friend but didn’t know how to have one. Despite Sam constantly trying to be his friend, Malcolm saw Sam as everything he wish he was: Charismatic, surrounded by friends, in a relationship with the girl next door, and most of all a stand up guy who doesn’t have personal hangups.
+That one scene where Sam tells Malcolm he sees why he’s always alone (after Malcolm treats him like crap), then Malcolm has this weird moment to himself saying “Alone? I’m always alone. I like being alone.” Then he immediately sicks a virus on Sam, showing just how bitter he is.

+Absolutely. Big budget movies no longer have any restraints, they can literally do anything, and as a result they have lost what made them special when it was a bunch of guys doing the best with what they had. The over the top theme park ride action sequences we get today pale in comparison to the simpler times when it was just guys fighting other guys. Compare the 1990 TMNT climax to Bay Turtles and the difference is astounding. Literally soul versus soulless.
+
+One reason why the Boom comics are so unbelievably awful is because comic books have no limits, and as we've seen Power Rangers with no limits can get real fucking stupid real fast. Power Rangers the show can still entertain me today even in a bad season because it's still generally people in spandex and rubber suits fighting each other practically since they're limited by a kid's show budget. Once and Always having a bigger budget to use a CGI Megazord instead of the Toei suit loses the charm that made it so beloved in the first place.

Problem is no one actually watched it at the time and it was pulled before the final episodes could even air. The market for Power Rangers and its kind had just dried up.

+Dom III is jjust a land variant of the Dreissen.
+The RFs might be F91 suits, but they're traditional height f91 suits. Literally no reason not to include them.
+Also the game has fucking Guntank, the argument that F91 is too short is stupid.

+Isn't f91 the same size as Pixie?
+--- 21644203
+>>21644179
+3m shorter than Pixie. Pixie's a 18 suit and F91's 3m shorter so effectively a 5/6 as tall and with them starting at lowest 650 for grunts they'll be 5-10m shorter than most of the native costs while having higher base and HSM values 
+
+Take say some crazy fuck bringing GP03 into a 700 match but make it shorter and giving it EES2 by default. Sure it'll have melee issues due to small size but they'd probably give F91 priority 3 to make up for that shortcoming and thus turn everything into a saber clash/bounce instead of the F91 getting priority fucked and becoming effectively a Support unless it's leaching off other people's stagger since having a Saber which is closer to a Zaku Heat Hawk is going to be needing you to get really close unless you got a lunge back melee that makes GP03's electric slide look like a joke.

Plus those 9 points if you go attack tree actually do matter a LOT since the game ties to catagorize stats in rank by 10s 15s and 5s. So 120 is your average C rank and 130 or 135 is your average B rank A rank and up is where drop off occurs and it becomes mostly 5s and 10s in increases.

According to Seiji Mizushima, it likely would have released earlier had it not been for COVID.

+00 already had a game a few months after s1 started actually. And 00F and 00P had already released in this time frame. Exia was also a guest in several games around that time too.

+I am not the one who brought up 00 and SEED, I am also not the one pretending that new Gundam anime isn't featured in things, nor am I the one pretending that somehow WFM is getting shilled harder than previous Gundam anime when notable ones like AGE and 00(and in a similar case SEED having stuff like Strike having a early appearance in Monoeye Gundams before the anime even aired).

+Perhaps it’s just a sense of scale then. Back then it was a lot easier to not even be exposed to those things until you were waiting in between seasons but WFM, compared to 00 specifically, feels like from the start they have a lot more planned for it and are trying their best to keep it in the public eye in a way that feels more like forcing it down your throat as opposed to letting new stuff be added here and there as time goes on. It’s just a result of there being a lot more avenues for WFM to be pushed therefore, compared to back then, it feels like it’s being pushed much harder.

Fandoms evolving has led to some of the worst written things to become popularized and for the most bare bones stories to be praised because they have one thing that fans are obsessed with. Stagnation is a terrible thing but people can come into a hobby without entirely revamping it to the point it’s unrecognizable. It is not that hard to ask new fans to be respectful and not throw tantrums about people not liking their show.

They’re trying to make it sell and keep it in the public’s eye but the universe, aside from the amazing concept with each company having it’s own mech designer, is entirely flat and the school setting unused in any meaningful degree. 00 got so into it’s world building it bordered on boring at some points because they were trying to set it up to sell well and be a mainstay. WFM forgoes the story and focuses on tropes and making moments that wow the audience and get the show trending for long enough for them to announce the merch they have planned. They want WFM to sell and they put effort into it but it doesn’t have the same actual care about the AU itself and is more about how quickly they can make a buck off of it before it fades into obscurity instead of making it good enough to be a mainstay. in the public eye.

+My friend, the world is going to move on. That's just the way of things. The now is always for the young. Frankly, if you expect companies like Bamco and Sunrise to perpetually bend over backwards for the sake of old fans then you're just setting yourself up for disappointment.
+--- 21644238
+>>21644228
+Because, like I said, it’s leaning more into new fans while having fewer homages, or at least overt ones, for the older fans to enjoy. Gundam should never be restricted to only exploring a set kind of idea, however there should be some kind of meaning to what Gundam actually is rather than it just being a title to sell toys. At it’s core it will always be that but is it so wrong for me to expect a little more when something has that name attached to it?

+>>21644259
+I don’t really want homages personally. I know WFM’s theme is trying to keep with the “War is Hell” line but for me at least it’s difficult to really connect with that when we’re only just now getting to see that come to fruition and the entire first part felt like it could have been used to round out the actual world of the AU past just the skirmishes between the companies. I don’t mind a slow burn, but it took so long for it to even start the fire. I’m mostly just being biased. I can’t suspend my disbelief or get invested into a world that has so little drawing me into it. The characters can be interesting but when I think of Gundam, I think of interesting characters being put in an interesting world where an interesting scenario plays out. Witch has interesting characters and an interesting scenario but the world which is supposed to be the stage for those things feels like it fails to meet the standards I’ve come to expect from Gundam. Gundam’s core theme is that war is hell but I think another core part of Gundam is the world building that helps get across that message. IBO might have been horribly paced and the story took forever to go anywhere but at the very least people constantly said that the AU itself had a ton of potential alongside the war we never got to witness. I’ve gotten way off track but WFM has the scenarios and characters for a Gundam but unlike even the worst Gundam you can think of, the world is just lacking outside of the companies.
