    Man, Heavyarms is the best thing about Wing. It's Super Mega Chaingun Gundam. All it wants to do is shoot things dead and be awesome.
    Yeah, and Leopard perfected it so well, too. especially when it got it's Destroy upgrade.

    He was responsible for all of those designs, and has been pretty much re-hashing F-91 with festive backpacks up until seed destiny.
    The Gundam X designs were incredible, though. a lot better than the shit we're put through today.
    I liked those designs better when it was called Mobile Suit Gundam.
    Gundam X is really the faithful retelling of UC that SEED failed to be.
    And what does that have to do with the shit-tacular designs in both shows?
    Gundam X has some of the best Gundam design ever and I will not hear anyone slander them. the Design of the Microwave System was a stroke of genius.
    Fair enough. I will not hear you talking out of your ass about something you've openly admitted to not watching and not liking to watch.
    Because only people who have been watching something to it's conclusion can talk about anything. that's incredibly elitist and retarded to me.

    Yes, that would be elitist.

    It's not unreasonable to except that someone should actually watch a show before criticizing it instead of making up complaints about things that don't exist though.

    I'm down for a harem show if it's hilarious. Steel and aluminum cans having a war, what could go wrong with that kind of premise.

    Yeah, it's another show that sounds so silly it's worth checking out.

    Seems there's plenty of those types of shows coming out next season.

    Indeed next season does seem have a few of those. Maria Holic:
    A love comedy about a cross dressing sadist boy and a girl with a lesbian fetish that takes place at an all-girls catholic school.

    Oh the latest episode of Index was pretty good. I'm liking MISAKA quite a bit. Seriously send in the clones.

    X is just F91 with a tacky backpack, Leopard and Airmaster are heavyarms and wing rejects.

    What more is there to say?
    F91 was a good design, too, as was Crossbone. Leopard and Airmaster were both great designs as well. Leopard was Heavyarms done BETTER.
    I'm not going to complain about F91 other than my backpack rant, but better than shit is still shit.

    I'm not kidding when I say that the Endless Waltz redesigns were the best AU suits up until 00.

    It had a couple of really good moments.

    It just didn't make up for the blandness.

    I will also go with X having some good designs but a lot of them really aren't anything special or are just semi-retool of UC designs, which makes sense given the setting but visually isn't very interesting. The X itself is basically a Wing Zero recolor.

    08th is fantastic, much like clawshrimpy. His posts contain a great deal of enthusiasm and his sense of moral rectitude and righteousness is very appealing.

    As a total gundam outsider, these gundam arguments only serve to amuse me, really.

    Now, Pikapuff, let us discuss how we were aroused by the most recent episode of toradora.

    I can't remember. Was I aroused anywhere? Other than the OP I mentioned earlier? This one was more emotional than lustful for me. Not much lust at all for the two shows, actually (TD and Kannagi). They're mostly holycrapadorable hughughughughug kawaii lawls.

    TD 10
    Like I mentioned before, it was frustrating that Minorin is shooting him down, and he's shooting that other girl down. It's like holy crap someone get together already. But then the show would end that way, and the whole reason to watch is because no one's together. [strike]gah[/strike] gau.

    My short term memory, I've forgotten the good stuff. Oooh. TD 8
    I was all emotional with how Taiga was at the end there.

    I have reason to suspect that anime romantic comedies were conceived purely to reassure otaku that their crushes normally wouldn't develop into a relationship no matter how great they were.

    It would be nice if Toradora decided to surprise everyone and have Ryuuji end up with someone besides Taiga (this is speculation of course but really now, it's obvious what will happen).

    Sure as hell ain't happening though.
