[The Sum of Zero]

My money is on Japan.

 

[Ashodin]

We made the front of our robot look like a truck.

of course

 

[Seductivpancakes]

Japan better send out their best newtype

 

[Vilix]

I'm American. But I'm rooting for the Japanese team.

BONZAI!!!

 

[donkey show]

From their Facebook, they said it was pre-recorded. Hopefully there won’t be any major editing shenanigans, so good to see it’s televising soon.

HYPE

 

[The Omega Man]

US Nationals rooting for Japan?, the Anime weapon has worked as intended.

 

[HStallion]

They should have removed the human pilots and put real guns on these things so it's not just shooting paint. I want to see giant robots beating each other into a pulp and ripping reach other to pieces. Right now I'm a lot less hyped. I feel this whole thing will be stilted considering how they're handling this.

Design wise alone, I can't blame them

 

[The Living Tribunal]

I don't know how much the rest of you know about japanese robots (I'm an expert), but honor and shame are huge parts of it.

 

[The Omega Man]

Design does't matter, USABOT might be a giant brown turd, but it is your 'murican turd, love it man.

 

[Lunar15]

Of course they painted it red. Now it can go three times as fast!

 

[JCX]

I'm so hyped! Still have my shirt from the crowdfunding for the US team.

Joke is on you, I am south American besides, the Japanese one is red, that means it will be faster, ask Char or an Ork

 

[Sephzilla]

USA bot looks a little too top heavy. I predict the finish is something like this

Hey, I am not American either I am allowed to root for Akai-kun!

 

[Cyanity]

USA bot looks a little too top heavy. I predict the finish is something like this

if you watch the test run video, you can see that the USA's bot is pretty beefy on the bottom. I don't think it's as top-heavy as people think.

[ED Cantu]

OH Finally, LETS GOOO!

Japan better win this.

Yooooo!!

 

[Kettch]

I hope the Americans plan on armoring the back side, or this will be a short fight. The Japanese robot looks way more maneuverable.

 

[Sickness702]

Bruh.... We are all fucked, China's comin with the sauce!

[psynergylover]

I completely forgot about this!!!!

[Bob Coffee]

[InfiniteCombo]

GO TEAM USA.

This x1000. Give them hell, America! The robot looks awesome, screw the haters.

Give it your best, USA! American robot pride!

 

[Deleted member 10571]

Garbage-tier Mechwarrior vs garbage-tier Animumecha.

Great.

 

[Snaku]

The designers of the Anerican mech look like they probably grew up watching Gobots. Jesus Christ.

Team Japan needs to win so their design will be the basis for the Mark I Jaegers.

 

[shoepolishsmelling]

I would agree, is it wrong to want to see the better looking bot(JPN) win?

 

[Bob Coffee]

looks aren't everything son. America functional toaster power will win.

 

[Dali]

I would agree, is it wrong to want to see the better looking bot(JPN) win?

If it's wrong then Ford would still make Tauruses that look like suppositories.

 

[Forerunner]

Necrobump from hell. It's finally happening

 

[HotHamBoy]

US robot reminds me of Mechwarrior.

I thiught it was funny that the two robots look like the mechs their respective country is known for.

 

[CadetMahoney]

 

[superdeluxe]

Mechwarrior vs Robotech

 

[Abstrusity]

Mechwarrior vs Robotech

Well the US is basically House Steiner, so...

Was attacking pearl harbour really bad? Personally I think we should let them do it again

 

[WickedLaharl]

what i expected

what i got

 

[Professor Renegade]

LET'S GO JAPAN!

 

[El_Presidente]

We miss the world cup but, hey, at least we're still going to fight our truckbot...

 

[Not]

This is as disappointing as I imagine, right?

 

[The Sum of Zero]

Admit it, everyone wants to see the Twitter shitstorm if Japan wins.

Especially from our tweeter-in-chief.

 

[Fuu]

lol I have a friend who sometimes asks me if this thing ever actually happened, let me send her this announcement.

 

[Majima Everywhere System]

These are piloted? I'm a lil surprised at that bit.

 

[billy beane]

Is the American robot going to kneel for the national anthem?

 

[uncredited male]

The loser should get blown up.

Take the person out first.

 

[ZombiePlatypus]

Damn. Team Glorious Nippon.

 

[Trey]

Is the American robot going to kneel for the national anthem?

it was given a patriotic kneeling function specifically for this reason

Woah woah woah, there's a pilot inside it?! Surely there won't be during the actual fight, right?

 

[Caj814]

GO!

 

[Holyoneturtle]

Damn, I cant wait.
