Kira Yamato is a coordinator already though
Oh come on Japan. Kira Yamato still? Yeah he has skill, but most of it came from piloting an overpowered Gundam. When Zaft built better grunt suits, the Strike was pretty shit. Remember how Kira got owned before getting the Strike Freedom?
Kira got owned ONCE. That's it. And there were mitigating circumstances.
So having his Strike shot apart wasn't being owned them? If Waltfeld wasn't already out there, it'd be buh bye Kira.
You mean a MS that wasn't his (it was the Rouge), damaged from speeding off the planed, almost empty from over-boosting couldn't handle an army of MS that were at least 5 years newer?
YOU DON'T SAY!
The Strike Rouge was built using components from the Strike Gundam. Also he wasn't up against an Army, he was up against a small squadron at first, that was how Waltfeld held them back while Kira got the Strike Freedom.
Unit age also doesn't have a huge amount to do with it, plenty of experienced pilots have done well with less. Heine Westenfluss used a Zaku Phantom against the Gaia and held his own.
He got owned more than once, just that the other ownage isn't as grand as the main ones.
i'm still blown by the fact that he even appears on a list in 2014. But then again, it's Newtype.
Yamato Killer killed your dog?
I still haven't seen Sankaku reporting on Tokyo ESP, and the lists above are definitely missing it as well. What gives?!
TOKYO ESP anime sucks, they ruined manga's story
The mangas story is shite, though. At least after "season 1",
Tokyo ESP first episode is Chapter 24 from the manga, you idiot.
Kirito should be in the female top 10 as well.
soon
All august and september at least...
> no JoJo in top 10 anime
fukkin newtype fans
JoJo has even more plot holes than Naruto, bitch please. Just to make an exemple the last anime episode's Polnareff.
you wanna talk about plotholes and inconsistencies? Nothing beats Bleach.
From that Top 10, Haikyuu!!, is the only thing worth watching if you ask me.
Dude are you really trying to find any sense in Jojo? LOL "bizarre adventure" means nothing to you? okay.jpg Jojo Is for men enjoy their Manlyness dont compare with shit like narutard
They are quite similar actually.
Newfag Narutard detected!
What plot holes?
Does it have plot?
More than most series do.
Kira from Gundam Seed...? Wat
its not a newtype poll without kira and lacus.
It's been a running gag in the newtype polls since 2005 to have Kira and Lacus in the top 10.
Can you elaborate on the reasoning behind that? I enjoy when companies have this level of trolling.
Kirito better than Jotaro and Tatsuya(won't even mention Kira)? Really, go fuck yourself SAO fags
Jokowi got mad LOL
Nah, SAO is not so bad of a series but Kirito/Asuna are just so boring and not interesting
The increase in literally gay anime is increasing lately. So many this season just to please the gays. I counted 9 airing that include outright gays, extremely gay looking, cross dressing. The gay activists are making their way to change fanservice as we know it. Pretty soon, half the anime airing charts will be for gays.
Here comes the "oh what about females liking.." NO. Cut the crap gay boy.
>using terms like 'gay activist' unironically
do not pass go
do not collect $200
increase in gay anime: good
If an anime contains a character who is gay, then it's clearly made for gays!
It's a well known fact that only witches and magical girls watch Madoka, and only owners of giant robots watch Gundam.
I think I may try to get raped by an octopus this weekend so I'm entitled to watch some tentacle porn.
I'm not so concerned about the increase in male fanservice, regardless of its target audience, as it will allow for more of ANN's "If it's gay, it's okay" hypocrisy on ecchi/fanservice anime to shine through.
most ecchi fanservice is trash that lets its audiene get off on the female characters being uncomfortable.
the fanservice of men is usually just men doing whatever and being perfectly comfortable about it. There's a difference, not a double standard. Think about it the next time theres a scene where a girl is seen naked and gets visibily upset and flustered screaming 'hentaiii D:' and cries. I think girls getting off on 'swimmers being good at swimming while also not wearing a shirt' is a lot less creepy than otaku getting off on Mio being upset because an audience saw her panties.
Judging in a different way fanservice based on unrealistic reactions is clearly double standard.
By your standard, Highschool DxD is a masterpiece because the girls main girls are perfecty comfortable doing whatever.
I rofl on this comment. What you say is that female sexuality is superior to male sexuality because it is less creepy? Check out Diabolic Lovers, it is aimed at women and the female lead in Diabolic Lovers gets "raped"/abused every episode and I mean literally every episode.
So what you're saying is the objectification of men is perfectly fine, yet for women, it's the crime of the century. Double standards all over feminism, I swear.
Literally gay anime? I wasn't aware that anime itself had an orientation.
i heard Darker than Black likes to give it, but Code Geass is a power bottom.
Code Geass's second season was a femme dom, though.
Wasn't DtB a magical girl anime? All I could see was a silver haired goth loli and her talking cat...
Oh no, they please the gays. This is a war on straights, amirite?
I agree completely.
ok, i'm gay and i think this season is shit. its not for gay people. Only love Stage. Free is not gay and its not bad at all (its not the best anime but its fun to watch). i Love mecha animes and only have cliches now. I like fanservice, cute girls are just cute to see XD, K-ON is far more gay than free to me (i love k-on). yaoi animes always have, its not the first time, we just dont have a lot of good animes this season. sry for the bad english.
Free is totally frikkin gay. Your not really gay if you think free is for girls
sooo Japan has no taste? yea...
Keep fighting it.
you talk as if your taste are better...
