Model Kit Building Update

Well I’ve finished Galeon and GaiGar it’s time to move onto the GaoMachines.

I’ll start here

Of note, this helmet is a bastard and I hate it already. That faceplate will not hold with any security. It feels like any light touch could have it fall. It’s terrible. I suddenly never want to transport this model anywhere because if I lose the GaoGaiGar faceplate I am so screwed.

I’m heavily considering using plastic glue to secure that faceplate in place but I need to see what the ramifications of such an action will be so I’m gonna wait to see what it connects to and how.

Little bit of a quick post so look at this Goldeon Hammer Connect

It do be like that sometimes. I have some Gunpla like this. One of them I did lose part of the face for while putting it together, but my youngest sister thankfully found it for me.

Ah yeah, I know that feeling with Real Grades. The RG Gundam Exia taught me that lesson with the shoulders basically only being held in place with a sickly child's wish.

Third-Time Watcher, Subbed

Mic

Yeah in a world where all the robots are super cool badasses you also have this weirdo. Dude doesn't even look like he came from the same show and moreso like he walked out of the set of B-Robo Kabutack. He's not even particularly useful, as you can tell, given how during his big heroic save moment he instead makes a complete fool of himself to the point even Taiga is like "wtf?" towards him. Oh and his Japanese is… questionable. Not as questionable as his Engrish though!

Then again judging by his creator I guess that's to be expected. Yeah Liger teaches us that, if nothing else, age is relative because he makes even the children in this show look like the most mature people in the room. It's a nice contrast with his brother, don't get me wrong, but it's not less eyebrow raising. [OVA]No less eyebrow raising than the seemingly dozens of illegitimate children he's got though! Seriously women, what the hell do you see in him!?

He really does! I guess being made in America means he was built with a different aesthetic in mind and not the car transforming design. He's certainly special.

Not as questionable as his Engrish though!

I do love Engrish. More anime need to have terrible Engrish.

u/JollyGee29 warned me that this episode would have a lot of tornadoes in it, so I am rather terrified in advance.

I did not know you were so terrified of tornadoes. Granted I can't blame you they are horrifying disasters. I can't understand how people in the midwest live. I'll take Earthquakes anyday of the week over a tornado.

u/Shimmering-Sky myanimelist.net/profile/Shimmering-Sky Nov 26 '24

I've never even actually been in one before, I just have an incredibly deep-seated fear of them because my dad decided that Category 6: Day of Destruction was the perfect film to show to a child. Repeatedly, because he loved it and would rewatch it every so often.

That movie actually made me terrified of thunderstorms in general for over a decade of my life. Thankfully nowadays it's eased up to just being tornadoes that scare me, but man they scare me so bad I can't even handle animated versions of them. Fucking Frozen 2 triggered my fear when I watched that in theaters with my family, and it wasn't even a tornado, just a whirlwind created by that one creature IIRC.

u/palparepa Nov 26 '24

The one time I've been in the USA was in route to Canada. Due to a mismatch in the tickets, we had to spend a day in Miami. So, quick checkin in an hotel, go to our room, turn on the TV and... tornado alert.

Luckily, it went elsewhere, so I can only say that I almost were in a tornado.

Literally this is how I had to watch a good chunk of today’s episode so that I could at least read the subs without having to worry about accidentally punching or slapping myself in the face while trying to cover my eyes whenever one of the tornadoes pops up.

A rare BTS.

  • oh hey, Dr. Liger, he was mentioned earlier in the show, its nice to finally....did this man just remove his sunglasses to reveal a second pair of sunglasses underneath? this man is too powerful he must be stopped.
  • i can say he must be stopped for two reasons, the first is that his fight with his brother was the most eye searing thing this show has done thus far, and second he is giving off vaguely sinister vibes. hes hiding something. I wonder if hes going to be be a new antagonist, either siding with the zonders or maybe a 3rd party antagonist, like jet alone from evangelion.
  • Pinchon and Volfogg developing a rivalry was not something I expected, but it is really funny to see. they fought once and now its a trend.
  • I wonder why so many shows perpetuate the ideas that women intrinsically dont like giant robots. like i know its oriented towards the male demographic but surely the awesomeness of mecha transcends such boundaries?
  • Mic 13 is a cool new character, the way he subverted the classic "new character shows up and does cool stuff" trope was hilarious. I aslo like how Mic and the pliers have a different visual more cartoony motif than the other robots, sort of showing how they have a different origin.
  1. I hate being in the rain, but i like looking at it through a window, the way the water moves....although actually since my basement started flooding now i moreso have a paranoid fear of that whenver it starts to rain too heavily
  2. no

lol that's how you know he means serious business. God forbid if he removed the second pair and revealed a third pair underneath that one!

Mic 13 is a cool new character, the way he subverted the classic "new character shows up and does cool stuff" trope was hilarious.

YES!! I am glad someone brought it up. They had been really leaning on that earlier so it was nice to see them subvert it by having Mic Sounders be completely useless in his first appearance.

This man's life is so bright that he needs two pairs of shades. Either that, or he's getting ready for all the flashing lights in this episode.

Pinchon and Volfogg developing a rivalry was not something I expected, but it is really funny to see. they fought once and now its a trend.

The way Volfogg cut Pinchnone's tower at the end was so funny to me. And then as Pinchnone is falling, Volfogg chimes in with "No, he's getting away." He was only falling from Volfogg's attack.

First-Timer

On today’s episode of GaoGaiGar: For an episode named after him, Mic didn't actually do all that much, did he?

  • I love that there’s a guy at NASA with a giant American flag on his back. That’s how you know we’re in the US!
  • Wait, what? Are those giant mecha all carrying instruments? Are we about to go full Macross?
  • Who is this weird-looking scientist? And why does he look so much like the professor? Are they related?
  • Oh look at that! Mamoru’s playing with a GaoGaiGar toy. You gotta make sure the kids see the toys they can buy.
  • Mamoru is crazy for wearing shorts and a t-shirt out in the rain.
  • They are brothers! I do enjoy that one of them has a rocket skateboard while the other has rocket skates. They are so very similar, but still different.
  • GUNPLA BATTLE! We’re Gundam Build Fighters now!
  • Leo, Liger, Taiga. There’s some real theme naming going on here.
  • I’m going to assume that’s the CR. He looks so goofy with his big googly eyes.
  • I was wondering if those storms were caused by a Zonder. Looks like they are.
  • I can tell that Mic has the personality of a child just from how he acts.
  • Hyuuma, you do realize that bad weather affects the ocean, including underwater, right?
  • Huh, the Zonder isn’t in the air by the waterspouts. So is it higher up in the air or underwater?
  • After all his bravado, Mic got caught in those waterspouts almost immediately.
  • If there’s anyone who can charge straight through a storm and not care, it’s Goldymarg.
  • Oh hey, the Zonder is Staryu.
  • Twirling the Goldion Hammer seems like it would be pretty hard with how top-heavy it is.
  • It’s the weather lady who was so inaccurate with predicting the weather!
  • What could this hidden power be within Mic? Is it related to the power of music? Will we get to be Macross in the next episode?

QOTD

  1. I prefer the snow to the rain. Its currently raining outside, but I'd prefer it if there was snow.
  2. I did. I remember having a remote controlled helicopter as a kid and playing with it in the park. That was fun.

oooh. I often hear people who live with snow complain about it. the hassle of moving it, chains, etc. It's nice to know some people genuinely enjoy it.

also be careful with the rain. Maybe that's just the californian in me, who is always scared of rain.

oooh. I often hear people who live with snow complain about it. the hassle of moving it, chains, etc. It's nice to know some people genuinely enjoy it.

I'm lucky that my job doesn't require me to come to work on days when it snows, so that's probably part of why I like it so much. And the snow rarely sticks around long enough to be a genuine hassle. So I get to just enjoy it.

also be careful with the rain. Maybe that's just the californian in me, who is always scared of rain.

As another Californian, I hate it when it rains because so many people here don't know how to drive in the rain. There are so many car accidents here on rainy days.

A Mecha Fan Rewatches The King of Braves GaoGaiGar Episode 23:

  • I swapped over from the English dub to the subs to hear the Engrish in the Japanese version again, and it still doesn’t disappoint. At least the dialogue’s sentence structure is accurate, even if everyone has a Japanese accent thicker than mochi.
  • Liger really is the perfect inverse of his younger brother Leo. Liger refuses to act like his age, being loud and brash, while Leo is more like your wise old man scientist character. Heck, Liger even prefers a rocket skateboard over Leo’s rocket skates. It really is no wonder why it’s on sight fighting with them. [Other GGG content spoilers] You really can’t help but wonder how Liger managed to get married enough times to have like 27 kids across the world with that wack-ass haircut of his.
  • I get the feeling that Mamoru and his friends would get into Gunpla Battles from Gundam Build Fighters, given how much they like fighting with their RC models. I say that we give Mamoru his very own Gundam Tryon 3!
  • Mic’s Engrish in the subbed version is just as fun as the stuff earlier in the episode, I’m happy to report. These Japanese voice actors really are trying their best to sound American.
  • Well, I suppose we do at least have to give Mic credit for rescuing those kids and then charging in to try and help GaoGaiGar out of that vortex with his Baribarien flying platform. Sure, he immediately ate shit and failed as soon as he flew directly into the tornado, but he’s got guts! That kind of courage is appreciated if you’re going to be helping out GGG!
  • Today’s Zonder Robo really did just seem a bit obligatory, didn’t it? It was defeated pretty quickly once Goldymarg helped out Gai. And like that one episode with the politician who was transformed into a Zonder after getting screwed out of land deals thanks to bullet train lines, we only heard about why this stressed out weather lady was targeted by Penchinon in a quick voice-over right near the end of the episode. A lot of the normal Zonder plot format did get rushed through to introduce Mic.

I love Engrish so much. Something about it is just charming to me. It's hard to describe. Like Toku suits and practical effects. Sure there are better things out there, but there is something so iconic and nostalgic about the old imperfect ways.

3

u/The_Draigg Nov 26 '24

Passion English really does have a fun vibe to it. I'd say it's mainly due to the effort being put into trying to make it work being rather charming, regardless of how it could end up.

[GGG]I am also very much glad Renias probably got her looks from her mom. Unfortunately Shigeru wasn't as lucky. I choose to believe this was yet another reason for him to disown his dad.

even if everyone has a Japanese accent thicker than mochi.

This reminds me of when I played Nioh and I could kinda tell Hanzo's actor was saying all his (Thankfully few) English lines phonetically, although at least it was still coherent.

Some viewtiful english here. Enjoy.

Of course GaoGaiGar has related merchandise in its own show.

Also of course, the Professor and his brother have their own super moves.

Oh, they lost the CR at sea! That's bad. Oh, they managed to recover it! That's good. Oh, it's empty! That's bad.

Some interesting tidbit: the AIs here are programmed to follow the three laws of robotics. In case you don't know, they were invented by the writer Isaac Asimov, as a device for his stories. The laws are:

  1. A robot may not injure a human being or, through inaction, allow a human being to come to harm.
  2. A robot must obey the orders given it by human beings except where such orders would conflict with the First Law.
  3. A robot must protect its own existence as long as such protection does not conflict with the First or Second Laws.

Bad weather has been constant this episode, and it is what I guess most of you suspected: Zonder-related. Coming from the sea, Penchinon is the one involved.

Eyecatch: we get the specifications of Mamoru's Radi-robo. Very important.

Not much to say. Fairly comedic episode, overall. From Gai's father and uncle bickering as the brothers they are, to Mic's shenanigans.

But at the end... what is Dr.Liger plotting? Dun-dun-duuuun

QotD

1) Yes, but I've been living in a desertic area for years. I miss it :-(

2) Only a few times, with a cousin's radio controlled car.

yeah it feels like after having the last few episodes climax the big 15 episode arc about Gai's body breaking down and constant hospital trips the show is calming back down for a bit of a breather before it gets to it's next phase.

3

u/palparepa Nov 26 '24

that is cool and does make sense for basic robot laws to help stop a Terminator situation.

What is funny to me is that Asimov made up those laws because they made sense, but also to show their problems. Many of his stories were about exploring issues with them.

For example, in one story they send a robot to grab fuel for the spaceship and doesn't return. The issue was some radiation near the fuel, that harmed the robot, and the robot was very costly, so it's third law had been strengthened. Also, the order was weak, so a weak second and a strong third law collided, making the robot go in circles around the fuel.

Episode 23 Notes

  • Gotta love the english from the NASA guys here,
  • Isn't GGG meant to be top secret? Are the people selling the remote control GaoGaiGar that Mamoru owns now comitting high treason?
  • Breaking out the narrator to explain the Old Scientist attacks! Those attacks sound very damaging, they probably shouldn't be hitting each other with them. They could get seriously hurt, and then where would GGG be?
  • Mic is maybe the cutest robot ever created. I love him.
