What current shift in priorities?

>>23701514
Sunrise is more focused on Yoroi Shin Den Samurai Troopers and Gundam Hathaway: The Sorcery of Nymph Circe right now that not much movement is happening for the Brave franchise. Then again, SOC King Exkaiser only just got a brush-up, and Good Smile is sucking up all series licenses like there's no tomorrow, to the point where the Action Toys J-Decker might be close to getting cancelled. I'll just list down every toy and other media news next post.

Bump

>>23701674
What do those other Sunrise projects have to do with Brave though? Brave has been a legacy IP they passively milk licensing money off for the last two decades. Sunrise doesn't really need to do anything, >>23701678 are all by 3rd parties.

Finally finished J-Decker after years of being lazy in keeping up with it. Fucking great ending, no notes.

>>23704583
What were your favorite and least favorite parts of J-Decker by the way?

>>23704831
Hard to say, since it took me so long to actually finish it so the first half of the show is a bit of a blur.

In general, my favorite things about the series were the interactions between the Braves and the humans, and the discussions about AI and emotion, humanity, etc. That sort of stuff was really fantastic.

Least favorite I guess would be Yuuta's voice maybe? I got used to it but it's still a bit grating. I really like him as a protagonist though. Otherwise I would've preferred if the final fight lasted longer. Its conclusion felt a bit underwhelming.

>>23705456
J-Decker is probably one of my favorite fictional pieces when it comes to the topic and themes of AI.

>>23705456

Gonna samefag reply, but episode 35's ending really solidified my stance on J-Decker themes of robots with a "human heart". Deckard's quote at the end "The remaining 1.09% may be the human side of me" being one of the series' highlights for me.

If you want full articulation out of it, it looks like Exkaiser needs to be partially disassembled. Takara Tomy changed it to fold up into a new storage slot for similar articulation reasons
I imagine when GSC eventually puts out their own, it'll be accurate to the original toy / show at the expensive of course of being a brick but that's not necessarily a bad thing.

"Hiyama's words on Kozo Shioya's passing.
I just heard the news of the passing of Kozo Shioya.
Even though we were with different agencies, he was a senior who took care of me in all kinds of ways ever since my debut days.
My most vivid memory is, of course,
「The King of Braves GaoGaiGar」
That production truly was an exhausting, wonderful experience. Thank you for everything."

Yuichiro Takeda' on the passing of Kozo Shioya.
"We sincerely pray for the eternal peace of Kozo Shioya. In "Yuusha Ou GaoGaiGar," he delivered outstanding performances as Amami Isamu and Polonaise. The line from episode 44 where Isamu says, "It's just that the way I got my powers was a little different," I believe could only have been written thanks to Mr. Shioya's voice.:

Not even top five Braves. Fighbird, Dagwon, Da-Garn, Betterman, and J-Decker were all better. There was even a better version of GGG and it was called Webdiver.

>>23732834
I was there and bought a fighbird. Unfortunately for me, I went on day 2 and 3. On day 2 they had Da Garn, Ga-On, Black Might Gaine, Granbird, Fighbird, and 7 Changer for sale. And a Dancouga that was the equivalent for 400 usd. I sorta chickened out and went back earlier this morning. They ran out of Granbirds, Ga-Ons, 7 Changers, and Da Garns. Doesn't look like anyone bought Black Might Gaine though. I'm going to buy loads more of these. no more gunpla.
