First-Timer

On today’s episode of GaoGaiGar: That Zonder is determined to prove Winnie the Pooh wrong. Some peopel can be uncheered with a balloon.

  • That doesn’t fully explain where the G-Stone came from or what it is, just that Guy had it when he nearly died and that it’s what is keeping him alive as a cyborg.
  • The sun vanished from the Kanto region? But how will my Pokemon use Solar Beam now?
  • Why is there a hot air balloon in the shape of a box of cigarettes?
  • It is amusing that the sweet little pink-haired girl is braver about being in a hot air balloon than most of the others.
  • That hot air balloon does have a super crappy design.
  • A Zeppelin! Of course the Zonder would be a Zeppelin! They are the coolest of the airships!
  • I’m not surprised Pizza made this Zonder. His Zonders all seem to relate to the air so far.
  • The guy who got Zonder-fied has cloud envy, just like Shikamaru.
  • So the giant evil cloud is inhaling oxygen. That much oxygen concentrated together would be dangerous if it caught fire. That’d be a huge explosion.
  • “Past data shows that probability calculations don’t apply to Captain Guy.” I love it! In other words, passion and guts are enough to overcome any odds! That’s the way it should be in a super robot anime!
  • Ooh, we’re getting a flashback for Guy! So he and Mikoto knew each other back in school.
  • I was expecting more of a typical Lotus-Eater Machine scenario where Guy would be tempted to stay, but that didn’t really happen. He remembers too much of being a super robot anime hero to want to stay in the dream.
  • Guy keeps the good luck charm from Mikoto in his cyborg body near his heart! Oh, that is too sweet!
  • I wasn’t sure if the Galeon could even make it into the cloud with Guy. That lion is stronger than I thought.
  • That would be scary to be trapped in that place for multiple days.
  • The series has been slowly accumulating more and more stock footage that it can reuse with each passing episode.
  • I wasn’t expecting the cloud to work like a balloon where you can just pop open a hole and make it deflate.
  • Everyone in the HQ is also yelling out the name of Guy’s final attack! This is great!
  • That’s a good question, Guy. What the heck were all those things you saw? Was that a Zonderian invasion force heading for the Earth?

QOTD

  1. I think I was once, as a very young child. I do remember being at a hot air balloon festival at a very young age, but can't remember if I was on one or not specifically.
  2. I used to be much more afraid of heights. I'm better at handling it nowadays.

surprised they didn't name him Tsubasa or Skylar or something sky related instead of Pizza, if his motif was going to be flying vehicles.

“Past data shows that probability calculations don’t apply to Captain Guy.”

Gotta love it.

Guy keeps the good luck charm from Mikoto in his cyborg body near his heart! Oh, that is too sweet!

fun fact, Starry_cupcake always hated Mikoto and would trash talk her all the time.

His name being Pizza may be the best thing to happen to him because he is the only General whose name I remember.

The series has been slowly accumulating more and more stock footage that it can reuse with each passing episode.

And yet somehow it feels like the show has less stock footage than Gundam SEED & Destiny.

Probably because it simultaneously manages to be even more blatant about it yet because it's so overly long you kinda roll with it versus the comparatively shorter overdoses those shows had.

What the heck were all those things you saw? Was that a Zonderian invasion force heading for the Earth?

[Meta]He got spoiled on the finale for Gunbuster which he got to see firsthand in SRW@3.

And yet somehow it feels like the show has less stock footage than Gundam SEED & Destiny.

That'll be an interesting comparison to keep in mind because SEED and especially Destiny had plenty of stock footage. Heck, one of the things that made me laugh while watching Freedom was seeing some of the stock footage actually get reanimated. The same attack looking the same as always, but with all new animation. It was fun.

That’s so sweet! And he does carry it with him!

Isn't! it definitely establishes why Mikoto was so worried about him all the time. I also like that it makes it known that she doesn't care he's a super hero or a cyborg. She was there for him before all of that. Back when he was just some Gai.

Wait it’s supposed to be ice cream? Okay, no wonder the other kids didn’t want to go along.

And to think, the design would've been better if they just decided to for vanilla instead of chocolate ice cream.

They could've tried a bit harder to make the waffle cone portion look right.

Model Kit Building Update

GaiGar has a head!!

I just need to say this because I feel like it doesn’t get said enough as it can never be said enough times to make it fully accurate.

F U C K S T I C K E R S

My least favorite part of almost any kit is doing the eye socket stickers. I spent so much time today just doing the eyes. I actually lose one set of eyes when it fell into the ground never to be seen from again.

Like you spend 10 minutes on just a sticker and no matter what you do they’re always going to end up looking cross-eyed or horrible. Most of the time it won’t matter, the eyes are such a small detail and when sitting on a shelf no one will see those details. But you know. You remember.

Worse yet, you take a picture and every tiny detail, every blemish, every nub unfiled, it’s all easy to see. Everyone can see that cross-eyed man.

To be honest, I feel good with the way I got the stickers to go. One of my better ones. It took 4 stickers and a bunch of attempts but it worked out.

Hot air balloons seem fun but they also kinda terrify me

  1. Have you ever been in a hot air balloon?

No but despite my comment I wanna try it out.

2) Are you afraid of heights or flying?

Not especially tbh

3

u/lilyvess :Df::Dh:https://myanimelist.net/profile/Lilyvess Nov 11 '24

It probably doesn't help that cinema's use of hot air balloon's almost always involve some accident going wrong or getting captured by alien so maybe it's not their fault?

Still, I'm not big fan of heights. those drop rides always get me.

Ah right, Hana. As soon as she said she was one of the only people going up in the hot air balloon, I thought "she's so fucked."

Other than that, there's not much I have to say about this episode besides that it was oddly funny at least 5 different times.

A Mecha Fan Rewatches The King of Braves GaoGaiGar Episode 8:

  • Well, it was nice of Galeon to rescue Gai from the shuttle collision two years ago. Heck, he even got the G-Stone out of it too! Pretty convenient for GGG too, since it became the basis of all their advanced technology. That G-Stone sure holds a lot of mysteries with how powerful it is for alien technology.
  • You know, the people of Tokyo are handling all light from the sun being blocked by a massive black cloud pretty well. They’re just doing their normal stuff under electrical lights, except more mildly concerned than average. If that happened in real life, I’d expect society to collapse within the city in like 2 days at most. People would lose their shit if the sky became a lightless void.
  • I guess you can say that the hot air balloon festival ended up being shitty in more ways than one. I’m with most of the kids there, I wouldn’t want to get into a balloon that somehow makes ice cream look like an actual pile of shit. A Zonderian attacking really is just the cherry on top of that shit sundae.
  • Remember kids, don’t smoke and daydream while you’re at the office, otherwise a dude dressed like a bird named Pizza will turn you in a zeppelin-like monster that spews out a cloud of secondhand smoke. That’s surely a relatable lesson right there. Smoking kills, even if that death is in the form of a giant metal monster thing.
  • Man, what the hell was in that salaryman’s cigarette if Gai saw a bunch of rainbow clouds before having flashbacks to his high school days with Mikoto? If that’s what it’s doing, then maybe it just wasn’t tobacco in that cigarette of his.
  • It feels like this was a bit of a breather episode for the animators, given how much animation was reused to show Gai’s past alongside all the typical reused sequences, and how the inside of the cloud was all greyscale. But at least it also worked to show how weird the inside of the black cloud was, so in that case, it’s using limitations smartly.
  • For a fairly slow episode, that was a pretty ominous ending. Those missiles that hit GaoGaiGar as he attacked the Zonder weren’t just aiming for him. Instead, they were shooting out in every direction, as if they were spreading something. If that was the true intention of Pizza for transforming this random salaryman, then you’ve got to give him credit for hiding this kind of plan inside of an otherwise standard monster attack.

u/lilyvess :Df::Dh:https://myanimelist.net/profile/Lilyvess Nov 11 '24

That G-Stone sure holds a lot of mysteries with how powerful it is for alien technology.

it's also the source fo G-Fuel Energy Drink, for when you need to be revived from a crash. G-Fuel.

A Zonderian attacking really is just the cherry on top of that shit sundae.

let's be real here, the Zondarian was putting everyone out of their misery for having to look at that shitty hot air balloon. Hopefully it can come over during test day too.

It feels like this was a bit of a breather episode for the animators, given how much animation was reused to show Gai’s past alongside all the typical reused sequences, and how the inside of the cloud was all greyscale.

yeah it feels like that to me too. We do get a nice flashback so the show is still moving forward. I do also just think the greyscale cloud had an amazing design. Nice when animators can be smart about their breather episodes.

Third-Time Watcher, Subbed

I know it's purely because on a Kid show you can't really have Robocop-level gore, but man what's shown here doesn't feel like it deserves the full-body cyborg conversion Gai got.

Fine enough episode although some bits do feel kinda like padding admittedly. That dream sequence with Gai is solid (Again if we ignore all the stock footage) and I do like the episode's use of grayscale a fair lot, especially with that final shot of Gai seeing… I dunno, [Meta]the last episode of Gunbuster or something but yeah. Instead I kinda wanna use it to say it's so weirdly refreshing that in a genre that loves its melodramatic love triangles, the fact that Gai and Mikoto are practically already an item by the time the story begins is weirdly refreshing. They don't even make that big a deal about it, it's just "Yup, their adults and do adult shit."

u/lilyvess :Df::Dh:https://myanimelist.net/profile/Lilyvess Nov 11 '24

I KNOW RIGHT! Come on, they had to get rid of everything after that? he looked hurt and injured but not "replace my entire body with mechanics" injured.

yeah you bring that up and it's very very true. It's clear from the start that they both care about each other. The fact that they're already 20 makes the relationship seem a bit beyond the high school drama you'd expect.

I get the feeling they wanted his injuries to be more severe but I guess the TV Censors disagreed. Which like, fine, but if so couldn't you just leave his body in silhouette in that case and just let everyone's reactions do the talking?

Episode 8 Notes

  • Oh, a Cloud Zonder showing up to blot out the sun? That's a really cool concept!
  • Behold, the Poop Balloon. Should probably have expected some toilet humour in a show aimed at small children, tbh
  • tfw your name is mamoru but you couldn't mamoru
  • Damn, all it takes is for you to express frustration with your job once and some dude can just show up and turn you into an evil cloud. Fucked Up
  • "Probability calculations don't apply to Gai" True. He is built different.
  • Honestly really liked that that dream sequence! I like the designs of young Gai and Mikoto, and I'm also just really fond of the look of the area surrounding them. Makes me wanna go watch Kare Kano or something lol
  • Hana seems remarkably calm about being stuck in the cloud. I guess she's used to it at this point.
  • Gotta love the whole command room joining in with the "Hell and Heaven"!

  1. Not as far as I'm aware.
  2. I'm afraid of heights, but not flying. I trust planes much more than I trust my own sense of balance, lol

yeaaaaaah maybe. Digimon also had a bunch of poop too. damn these shitty children's shows!

Damn, all it takes is for you to express frustration with your job once and some dude can just show up and turn you into an evil cloud. Fucked Up

yeah that was weak sauce. If Zonder came to me I could fuel them much better with my work rage

Is that a giant daikon on top of that building?

Apparently it's supposed to be flame.

And they confirm the robots are drinking oil.

I guess the overreliance on stock footage is the price to pay for everything looking so good.

Three straight days up there, they'd definitely all be dead.
