    Kuratas is basically a Knightmare 1.0 from Code Geass.

    notice how tiny those legs are in comparison to the fighting unit's literal tractor ass

    I bet it's probably way more maneuverable

    Because we are the best at all things, right? I mean.. ignoring that all the hydraulics are exposed...

    So, this was staged or something? That last bit with the announcers looked fake as hell and sucked all enjoyment out of what I thought would be a real match.

    I suspected they pre-taped for safety.. but as soon as I saw they were using a digging chainsaw, I'm like - there's no way in fuck they are having a real person in there during that. In fact, thinking on the footage, I don't think I ever saw anyone get in or out.

    One thing was totally real though and that was Kuratas knocking Team USA flat on its ass in one blow.

    Kuratas can be piloted remotely. The other one specifically has preprogrammed moves so yeah its likely nobody was really in the mechs

    I have a podcast now. It's about video games and anime!Find it here.
