Support NeoGAF

[SonicMegaDrive]

They are already dead, seriously, we all know how this ends.

It's not about the conclusion. It's about the journey.

 

[Snakeyes]

In response to the wiitomic bomb, the Micro Confederacy developes a new kinetic superweapon. It's unveiling provides a large boost to the moral of common troops, but new weapon holds a shameful secret. It's guidance systems is completely inadequate. The Micro Confederacy simply cannot control the direction of the weapon once deployed, making it impossible to hit valuable targets such as the much coveted land of Harcordia.

In the war room of the Sunny HQ, the military leaders are discussing the increasingly grim contractor situation...

"Gentlemen, our strong contractor ties have been historically instrumental to our nation's dominance and in these times where greed and betrayal runs rampant, we must again rely on their support. What are the latest updates from the Fanta family?"

"Satin has voiced his disdain for civilization and become a pacifist, Sir."

"What about the promising mercenary group led by his cousin Barsus?"

"We have been trying to send them to the frontlines for months, Sir, but they seem more interested in designing their fashionable new uniforms than joining the fight."

"That is truly a shame. How can such a prestigious lineage have fallen so low? Lord Seven must be rolling in his grave. Anything on our resident cyber-warfare-expert-turned-socialite, Atlas?"

"No good news on that front either, I'm afraid. There are reports of his new OS4 being exclusively available to Ninterudo Handheldians."

"Well, shi-"

The tense briefing is interrupted by a visibly shaken officer busting into the room.

"Ray Blue, Sir, Communications Squad. Our radars have picked up a massive amount of Ninterudo forces rapidly approaching our waters. The intel team is unable to gauge the amount of FLOPs they're carrying."

General Butler becomes silent, his face contorting with rage. After what seems like an eternity, he finally utters:

"Get the Micro HQ on the line. It's time to discuss an alliance."

 

[Dresden]

It's an actual series that will begin airing in October.

It's actually only three episodes, one in October, the other two in the future.*

*next year

 

[not_so_special]

im the only one tired of anime style of this kind?

 

[SonicMegaDrive]

Nope.

 

[Jex]

im the only one tired of anime style of this kind?

Personally I'd like to see more anime adaptations of the videogame console wars.

 

[Gagaman]

The whole manga (so far) is onlin, not sure how close to this the anime will be yet: http://oab.sakura.ne.jp/gia/story/0/page1a.htm

It's a bit ecchi here and there, but at least it's not loli like Neptunia haha.

Thank god. I'd like to at least be able to derive some enjoyment from this.

 

[Diablohead]

Aww, I was kinda hoping the characters would be based on the hardware. Then it'd be like Castle Vidcons: The Anime.

I'd watch that

 

[cosmicblizzard]

Aww, I was kinda hoping the characters would be based on the hardware. Then it'd be like Castle Vidcons: The Anime.

Well there is a Neptunia anime coming.

 

[Effect]

Sony wins in the end.

Jumping over an entire generation.

This whole is crazy though. It has to have a tragic ending.

 

[Teknoman]

I'm surprised NEC/PC engine isnt represented. Wasnt it a 3 sided system war in Japan during that time?

 

[SonicMegaDrive]

I'm surprised NEC/PC engine isnt represented. Wasnt it a 3 sided system war in Japan during that time?

Yes. In fact, I think the PC Engine outclassed the Mega Drive in JP, too.

 

[Necrovex]

Damn, I thought this thread wouldn't get made until we got some more material

I was pretty damn sad when I came in here and saw no trailer.

It's not about the conclusion. It's about the journey.

Exactly what a fan of One Piece would say!

 

[SatelliteOfLove]

The Sega cast is disappointing.

No Madden (or DKC for SNES). I know it's focused on Japan, but I mean, really.

 

[Teknoman]

No Madden (or DKC for SNES). I know it's focused on Japan, but I mean, really.

Focused on first party franchises. Would be nice to have a DK brawler type guy for the Nintendo kingdom.

 

[Platy]

No Madden (or DKC for SNES). I know it's focused on Japan, but I mean, really.

As I said before, Madden is NOTHING compared to no Tails and Knucles =P

 

[Sgt.Pepper]

im the only one tired of anime style of this kind?

What kind? First anime I've known that it is about the console wars.

 

[SonicMegaDrive]

What kind? First anime I've known that it is about the console wars.

I think he's referring to the art style.

 

[SatelliteOfLove]

Ah, gotcha. Still, having a big dude in a football helmet whose Secret Move is an ambulance running over the enemy would be grand.

 

[cosmicblizzard]

I think he's referring to the art style.

Well that's dumb since there are a good chunk of series these days that don't have that art style.

 

[SpacePirate Ridley]

"yeah you guys may have Saroid and Zelig and Masa, but we have... arcade tetris and columns"

Yep, why does the Nintendo team look much better than the sega one, even the character designs?
Arent the ones from sega the main characters from the anime?

Is it going to do that the nintendo enemies arent so bad, and then sony comes at the end as an alien race or some shit and they have to unite?

 

[SonicMegaDrive]

Well that's dumb since there are a good chunk of series these days that don't have that art style.

Well I'd hope so lol

Oh shit, is SMB The Movie Yoshi! lol

That page is horribly done and needs a huge fix for ti to be readable, most of the time I dont know if im going forward in the story, how the manga is done dont help either, becuase even if you dont understand japanese you can understand drawing and were it goes and this one is not really good doing it.

 

[Cow Mengde]

No Madden (or DKC for SNES). I know it's focused on Japan, but I mean, really.

Donkey Kong is in it. Saw him in the Manga. The cast you see isn't the full cast either.

 

[SilverLunar]

Donkey Kong is in it. Saw him in the Manga. The cast you see isn't the full cast either.

... Which one is DK??
And wow Link looks like a douche, is that his personality here?

 

[Cow Mengde]

Sorry, I didn't mean DK was in that picture, just that there are more characters than what's shown. DK isn't in the picture either.

 

[Boerseun]

Wow! I'd love to catch this show! The concept alone has me sold.

Sony wins in the end.

Nah! Their kingdom overspent on mercenaries. Now the coffers are empty, Good King Ken has dissappeared, while the rabble lead by the pretender Kaz have brought chaos to the land.

 

[qq more]

im the only one tired of anime style of this kind?

Yeah not a fan of the art style.

Mario looks badass though.

 

[Wellscha]

This thing is gonna be hard to watch.

DAT ending.

 

[Trojita]

Why are you saying fans? You make it sound like some fan-made production, when this is an actual product coming out.

 

[Tenck]

Spoiler: Sega loses.

 

[Choppasmith]

I haven't been into anime for a while and this looks really neat. Who are Fare and Foster supposed to be?

 

[Mysterious Stranger]

Don't like this kind of animes with little story and all fan service.

 

[cosmicblizzard]

I haven't been into anime for a while and this looks really neat. Who are Fare and Foster supposed to be?

Marth and Fox.

 

[not_so_special]

Well that's dumb since there are a good chunk of series these days that don't have that art style.

dumb? there is a lot of anime with that generic style, i miss the times of gainax,ghibli,etc

 

[Codeblue]

Pretty sure Gainax and Ghibli are still around.

 

[Dedication Through Light]

Anyone know when this is airing?

Episode 1: October 20
Episode 2: New Year 2013
Episode 3: Spring 2013

[NeonZ]

"Fare" is a generic representation of "Fire Emblem", Foster is Fox (Star Fox - Fox Star). Art really doesn't resemble him at all, but he's apparently going to be a pilot.

 

[GDGF]

Gonna watch the hell out of this.

 

[lunchwithyuzo]

No Bonk?

 

[Zephyrus]

Sony wins in the end.

dude. Spoilers

 

[not_so_special]

Pretty sure Gainax and Ghibli are still around.

they are exceptions and rare gems in this day and age.

 

[cosmicblizzard]

they are exceptions and rare gems in this day and age.

Many people already say Gainax is on the low end these days. I'm sure you didn't watch the shows they had this year (or much anime at all if that is your opinion of the medium).

Excuse me if i dont like the actual situation of the anime, good for you if you enjoy these series.but that "im sure" no son,you are sure of nothing cause you dont know me or know what series i have tried -ergo proxy- black lagoon- blood plus-gantz-planetes-etcetc some are decent,some have good art,but i found everyone of them failing on one thing or another.

 

[PBalfredo]

Episode 1: October 20
Episode 2: New Year 2013
Episode 3: Spring 2013

http://aoisekai.net/anime.html

Only three episodes? So is this some kind of OVA rather than a series?

 

[cosmicblizzard]

Excuse me if i dont like the actual situation of the anime, good for you if yoy enjoy these series.

A situation you would know is false if you spent more than 2 seconds looking at modern stuff?

 

[DrWong]

The Sunny Empire sends a new army to the ghettos but it is completely wiped out when the great General MonHun betrays his men and switches sides to lead a resurgent Ninterudo force. Meanwhile Ninterudo ninjas sneak into the heart of the occupied lands they once controlled and steal the Bayonet superweapon from its rightful owners. The people begin rioting in the streets even as Emperor Kaz tries to assure them that all is well.

The sun begins to set on the Sunny Empire. Tune in next time for the sequel.

In the war room of the Sunny HQ, the military leaders are discussing the increasingly grim contractor situation...

"Gentlemen, our strong contractor ties have been historically instrumental to our nation's dominance and in these times where greed and betrayal runs rampant, we must again rely on their support. What are the latest updates from the Fanta family?"

and the other related posts

I laughed. Thanks guys.

 

[Dizzy]

So pretty much Hyperdimension Neptunia?

Wow...just read the wikipedia. Can't believe I've left it sitting in my backlog, sounds awesome.

 

[Snakeyes]

Not really.

Tatami Galaxy, Tsuritama, Kids on the Slope, Trapeze, and Mononoke are all great series that lack most of the annoying anime tropes. I'm sure Anime-GAF can recommend a couple more as well.
