New netflix Baki trailer.



Doesn't look as good as the dvd short did, but that's to be expected.

New voice cast is neat.

Just saw Full Metal Panic IV ep. 4
Between insisting on calling it season 4 and the direct references to Sousuke's poison gas antics (I don't remember how that went in the novels, it's been so long), they really want us to know that Fumoffu was the canon season 2 and not just comedy side stories, don't they ?
I can't stand most mecha action, but FMP has always been the only exception, and once again the 3DCG combat is seriously good.
If I struggled to the end of my determination, to the end of my way of life with my followers, if the result is ruin, then this ruin is inevitable. Grieve. Shed tears. But you cannot regret.

What should be my next Gundam series after I finish 08th MS Team? Thinking ZZ but a friend of mine called its first cour some Saturday morning cartoon shenanigans. Might go with G Gundam instead.

ZZ was lighter on account of its predecessor's mortality rate

You should watch G, everyone should watch G, G is top tier Gundam anything

But it isn't particularly grounded either, it's as close to a Super Robot show as Gundam is ever gonna get

G sucks. If you want the same basic plot but with actual fights and animation, watch Build Fighters.

What else have you seen? I'd recommend 0080 if you haven't seen it before; it's absolutely stupendous. If you're interested in stuff that's sorta similar to 08th MS Team (in other words, stuff set in UC without newtypes and a veneer of being more "realistic"), there's 0083 (although personally I can't stand it) and Thunderbolt. And as Speedpreacher mentioned, G works very well as a palate cleanser from all the doom and gloom of the UC stuff.

also ZZ is rough at the beginning but it's never outright bad, and it finds a good balance relatively quickly. It gets way more hate than it deserves.

This is absolutely disgusting. Get the fuck outta here.

Build Fighters fucking rules, though.

G is so badly animated that the fights aren't any fun to watch and the plot is so bad that the fights would be the only thing worth watching it for, if they were animated well.

Usually the fights start with the antagonist using some technique of their own that Domon immediately counters with stock footage of Shining/God Finger and ends the fight immediately.

Already seen 0080. It's the only Gundam I'd give 10/10. I've also seen the Mobile Suit Gundam compilation movies, Zeta, and Thunderbolt.

Did you watch the Zeta compilation movies or the show? If the show, you should watch Double Zeta next since the show is not over yet.

Hey, isn't that from the same artist who did the isekai Putin image that I saw around these forums a while back?

Yes, double good news,  isekai putin became a real manga and is getitng translated; and the other putin (golosseum) series is getting an official english release, the volume 01 is laready out.

The antiweapon technology they use also returns their bodies to their prime, that is why the 14 year old girl looks lin her mid 20s, same for bruce lee.

In that case, I'd definitely recommend Double Zeta; the early going is a bit rough, but once the show figures out its tone, it's good. And then after that, you can jump onto Char's Counterattack and close off Tomino's early-UC work!

I like the post-apoc setting and the characters and the soundtrack of G.

Build Fighters looks like a children's show. I hate it. No thanks.

I agree with that.
Double Zeta has always been the butt of the franchise for it's more cartoony take at the beginning.
But holy smokes that show is great when it actually starts to get the UC vibe.

Add Startdust Memories to that list btw
