new mechs first impressions

[Samaron]

1. no offense but wth is this train bot thing?
2. dancouga, last time i played them was in the ps2 srw games. man age gotten to the voice actor of shinobu, if similar to captain harlock in srw T then im now sure if he gonna come back to voice the character. similar case right now for original voice of amuro. can still voice amuro from CCA but he having issues voicing amuro in his teen years. thats from an interview of him for the upcoming gundam doans island film.
3. i love the early dialogue of getter devo and the pilots. even ryoma speaks along lines of we shouldnt squander are debut in this new universe.
4. votoms i know the name but havnt seen the anime. i still need to watch it one of these days.

also legit touchy question: since mazinger Z: infinity replaced mazinger z: true impact then how long you think until they decide to replace shin getter robo for getter robo devolution? i mean they already invested animations and model and got voice actors for these versions of ryoma, hayato and benkei so would be a waste of resources not to utilize them again in future titles.

I mean, the original Voice Actor for Captain Harlock died before SRW T released, it was one of, if not the, final gig of his life. So...

Mortality says hi.

VOTOMS is pretty good. I have plenty of criticisms for it as I think it gets a bit messy and meandering at times, but it's one of the more interesting Mecha series out there. Chirico is a great stoic character that I think more media needs these days. Sadly the original series is about as good as it gets, everything else is hit and miss, often forgettable (or you'll wish you'd forget). I did like VOTOMs Finder a bit as it's own thing, but it's hard to call it VOTOMs other than it cameo's a Scopedog iirc.

Who knows when they'll just have Getter Devolution. Personally I don't care so long as we don't get just Shin Getter Dragon by it's self again. I'd rather have any Getter Robo than Dragon, even if Dragon was the strongest.

It's going to take me at least one night to install the DLC so I can't really comment on what I think of the units in-game yet. I will say that I feel something similar about Shinkalion, I think the whole transformers aesthetic ruins whatever I might like about them, similar to how I feel about some of the Might Gaine or Brave Police units. At least Shinkalion has a bit of a cool samurai aesthetic that I like though, so... I'll grit my teeth and try to enjoy the silly and flashy samurai cuts.

getter arc and dynazenon were already confirmed for next srw don't think devolution will return I mean mazinkaiser infinitsm was dongrade from x mazinkaiser and mazinger zero v etc

dancouga ultimate is a downgrade from dancouga final imo

True I have felt he is weaker than before and his attack animation r simply bad plus no original soundtracks ..

dancouga is weird, the animations look very very heavy, but other than that, they are a bit, well, basic.

Disappointed by the lack of a Trombe track (and yes I know Aussenseiter isn't really in the game, but still, it's one track)

you can always add in the track that is so OP that it even overwrites boss music yourself XD

It might be blasphemous, but I used the Dancouga Nova OP for it. I'm bummed by the lack of split and transform though.
