1/1 LowViz Lurker Posted August 17, 2005 Share Posted August 17, 2005 I will wait patiently for mahou, but I hope mahou don't take too long with each ep. (like say a month for 1 episode - by then I will have forgotten what happened in previous eps ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mercurial Morpheus Posted August 19, 2005 Share Posted August 19, 2005 Since Anime-one released more episodes lately, it reminded me to watch this show some more. I've been pretty hooked on it. I like the character development and the hints at what's to come. The music's great, and I like the mecha designs. The CGI isn't half bad either, though can look awful at times. Still, the mecha designs warrent it and put it to use, so I can't complain. I'm on 10 right now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dendrobius Posted August 20, 2005 Share Posted August 20, 2005 Well, after yet another few character building episodes, Aquarion's plot is finally getting under way with Ep20. I was afraid the storyline would only kick in 3 episodes from the end or something silly like that. Spoilers One of the Fallen Angels gets captured and de-winged, which pisses off Touma like there's no tomorrow, and interestingly enough sets off bad feelings with the three stooges (Apollo, Sirius and Silvia) He's on the warpath with a bitching black and neon Cherubim soldier and there's a showdown slated for Ep21. Also, quite a bit of "history" was covered in Ep19 and Ep20 Can't wait to see how the rest of the story plays out, now that the background's well and truly set out.

Commander McBride Posted August 22, 2005 Share Posted August 22, 2005 Hmm, I just wish the chogo had a more matte finish, this one looks sorta cheap 'cause it's so shiny, like some kinda Power Rangers toy. I'd be all over one if it was slightly more realistically finished. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

twich Posted August 23, 2005 Share Posted August 23, 2005 Awesome pics....did it give a release date for this bad boy? I am eagerly awaiting this item! Twich Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dendrobius Posted August 23, 2005 Share Posted August 23, 2005 Looking at those photos...the Luna Aquarion's shoulders are WAY too boxy, and Mars just looks like crap, I think it had the worse of the all the compromises done to it in the name of "perfect gattai transformation" However, Solar Aquarion looks pretty much spot on. Why am I not surprised? Although Aquarion's done in CG, there's still quite a bit of anime magic going on to make the transformations "work". Aquarion Mar's proportions here compared with the official look Aquarion official page look just don't jib. Shoulders, and also the distance of the arms from the body, are really obvious. Oh well, the curse of the gattai robots, but hey, we still love the show. Now where's my Mugen Punch accessory??? I DEMAND A MUGEN PUNCH ACCESSORY to scale!!

Ido Posted August 23, 2005 Share Posted August 23, 2005 I hope Bandai will release some good non-henshin/gattai aquarion kit as I will love to have an Aquarion Luna model. The toy looks crappy in these pics especially Mars that sucks bad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dendrobius Posted September 2, 2005 Share Posted September 2, 2005 Ep22 just came out. It looks like we've just broken a record. The plot is finally getting started, a lot of loose ends are being tied up, and finally Aquarion's got a story that goes beyond one or two episodes at a time, as 23 will be carrying on the story from 20 and 21. Major changes have happened, but the series doesn't look like it'll end anytime soon. I'm definitely happy I stuck it through the past episodes where it was all character development, it really is starting to come together now.

Legend of TSXer Posted September 2, 2005 Share Posted September 2, 2005 Just the RAW episode came out right???? No new subbed episodes???? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Final Vegeta Posted September 2, 2005 Share Posted September 2, 2005 (edited) (for the mugen punch accessory there is always this) I am kinda unsatisfied in the anime Kawamori has so little role. According to the credits on the official site, he worked in episodes 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 13, 17 and so on (he seems to do scriptwriting more than storyboarding). It's not a coincidence these are among the best episodes. Most other monster-of-the-week episodes lack Shadow Angels and even Rena. Now, if only someone subbed the remaining episodes... (by the way, I already sketched something about the chakras here in this thread, but I think the form wasn't very incisive. Now I wrote a complete article on the chakra system and Aquarion and posted it in Kabitzin's blog. Hope some may find it interesting.)

Dendrobius Posted September 3, 2005 Share Posted September 3, 2005 Legend: I watch the Chinese subs which come out pretty quick, I gave up on the English subs ages ago when they started lagging seriously. I mean, I don't think anything beyond Ep12 is out in English, when the series and the Chinese subs are up to 22 already? I ain't waiting that long! Sorry if you can't read Chinese...but if you do, get eMule, just search for Aquarion, and download like crazy. The quality of the subbing is surprisingly good. FV: Hehehe, that ain't long enough...

Renato Posted September 13, 2005 Share Posted September 13, 2005 OK, just saw the last 6 minutes or so of episode 20-something. Blame it all on stupid scheduling, I've missed tons of episodes and dunno what the hell is going on. Anyway. It's gotten really cool, cos now there's TONS of Vectors, and the other Aquarions look kickass. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Legend of TSXer Posted September 13, 2005 Share Posted September 13, 2005 Still disapointed because the subs arent coming out... It kinda be ok if they were a few episodes late, but there like 7 episodes behind? Damnit where is the crying smiley? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fort Max Posted September 15, 2005 Share Posted September 15, 2005 All of the recent pics I have seen show it having a stand in each mode holding it up from the back.

Dendrobius Posted September 15, 2005 Share Posted September 15, 2005 Warning: Massive Spoilers for those who have not seen up to Ep23 The "Mass Production" model Aquarions (yes, multiple!) are manufactured by the Earth military in cooperation with DEAVA. They're formally called the Heavy Assault Type Aquarion (that's the best translation I can come up with), and have weaponery out to the wazoo with lots of big guns and lots of missile (Macross missile storm is back with a vengeance), not to mention its version of Getter's Mach Flash (?) dodge (disassemble and reassemble incredibly quickly) The only one we have seen in action at the moment can be controlled by one person only, with the other Vector machines being controlled by an autopilot system. They're "powered" by the feathers snipped off the captured Futaba. Arguably more powerful in a straight up fight than the Aquarion itself, it handed the defector Sirius in Cherubim Mars (Vector Mars combined with a Cherubim soldier) his ass. Fudo is not very impressed with them though. Looks like Aquarion's going to be a 26 episode story, we're up to 23 now, and it's showing major signs of the final battle coming up. Kick ass.

Renato Posted September 21, 2005 Share Posted September 21, 2005 (edited) The penultimate episode was shown last night, so it's time for some SPOILERS Bear in mind I have missed a lot of episodes in between #14 and #20 or so. OK, the Mass-produced Aquarions kick ARSE. And they also seem to transform to crab-type things with cannons on the back which remind me of those guys in Patlabor, can't remember their name... One of them is controlled by Glen, the guy who was in a coma for most of the series after the first episode, but apparently he hadn't fully awoken yet so he did not recognise Reika, however by the time he did, it was time for his showdown with that horned baddie. Cue Guld Goa Bowman style death. More surprising is the battle between Sirius (in the Aquarion combined with the Cherubim) and Apollo in Solar Aquarion, as Sylvia watches on... Very Mac Plus here. After a lot of crap, the main baddie dude controls the Cherubim's arm to get it to stab itself, apparently killing Sirius. To be continued!! Spoilers OVER. All in all the whole thing is a party mix of Escaflowne, Macross Zero and Macross Plus. Not the best show, but certainly the best out there at the moment, bar none. Big finale is next week!
