86 anime will save mecha.
86 anime will save mecha
???
Tomino already saved mecha 20 years ago after Evangelion nearly killed it.
>saved mecha genre would be dominated by non humanoid machines
Not only would it save mecha but turn it into real golden age
Show me a recent mecha series that's not Gundam or fujoshit that was a success.
Heavy Object already tried and failed miserably
I don't see this starting a new trend even if the LN did sell well
>not Gundam or fujoshit
Is that a new "TRUTH ME IT WILL SAVE MECHA" garbage ?
HO flopped because early episodes were absolute trash and people felt cheated by marketing. Also Index shitstorm.
HO did it in wrong way, with boring indestructible super weapons approach what turn out to be vulnerable to 2 guys
Series about dudes having adventures don't fucking sell period. Only exception is full on fujo crap but even then they usually flop.
>>No romance
On to the trash it goes
There actually is romance later.
Not the main character though
>86
The only good mecha ever created was Code geass.
So Shin and Lena aren't the main characters?
>Shin and Lena
Just friends. There isn't even a picture of them kissing they are just friends.
It'll happen eventually as long as Shin somehow manages to stay alive.
First book was pretty good, but book 2 was absolute shit. Should have just been a standalone.
Hey, Tiger & Bunny sold great, has a huge living franchise with all sorts of collaborations and even nip men love it for having great character drama, despite its fujo elements it is still for the seinen demographic.
Dude 90% of T&B fans are fujos.
Yeah, that doesn't mean the men hate it.
Nip guys were angry in nip forums when Kotetsu and Barnaby got separated by adding Ryan in the 2nd movie.
It won't. Nor it will save this industry.
Girl on the bottom left looks like she's from loli shogi
Same artist I assume
Yeah Shirabi does both series.
It was supposed to be a finished story but it became so popular it was forced into serialization. Books 2-3 basically exist to clean things up so it can continue.
>Symphogear
>/m/
Literally less /m/ and less idol than fucking Macross.
Mecha musume is a separate genre. GuP is more mecha than Symphogear.
It's mecha by Japanese standards, nobody cares about your retarded foreigner definitions.
This
It is the only /m/ that sold well in the last couple of years
>doesn't have idols
Yeah, it's already a dead show.
Why didn't they use total sales for this chart? I know Tiger and Bunny sold 38,421 total.
Nips consider it all /m/
[citation needed]
>Yeah, that doesn't mean the men hate it.
Yeah they just don't give a shit bout it
>It is the only /m/ that sold well in the last couple of years
Because its not a /m/ show its a fucking idiol show with a brain dead fanbase.
I just told you they did, they also cheered for Fire Emblem in the nip screenings of the movie.
Nips still categorize it as /m/
Redpill me on 86.
But they don't dumbass.
You clearly have not watched it. Stop embarrassing yourself.
You clearly don't keep up with the nip fanbase for Tiger & Bunny and are clearly projecting some sort of "I'm a manly man and I don't like this fujoshit thing so all nip men must not be into it as well" mentality.
user you can't generate this type of numbers with just fujos in one year
It is fujoshit, but its good fujoshit and it shows

That shit is not worth to be considered as /m/
Nips disagree
We need more MC likes Loran. He is such a good boy.
It is /m/ and there's nothing you can do about it.
Exosuits are /m/ you retard.
>that loli bottom-left
Sold.
>This is how retarded Yas Forums is
So you guys are saying this is another Heavy Object?
Not interested then.
Not humanoid shape is boring since the focus will be on the pilots instead of the machines. And if the pilots are unlikable then it's a sure flop.
>only giant robots are considered /m/
Nips have a wider range for mecha, outsiders' opinions don't matter
>My opinion is correct, decades of established fact are not
Ok faggot
>Aniplex wants it to become a hit
Would share the same fate with Asterisk. RIP
I don't know what that thing is, i just want a decent and complete adaptation of fucking Linebarrels of iron and after that i would gladly let the whole genre die off.
>the focus will be on the pilots instead of the machines
As is the case with 90% of all mecha shows already.
The problem with non humanoid mechas is that they're bad as merchandise.
Back when Fate was picking up speed
Mecha Musume is mecha you absolute child.
This actually has a plot rather than being a vehicle for the author's fetishes like Heavy Object.
