We also have an IRC channel called #tladt where we all hang out. The channel is on Rizon, not QuakeNet! Feel free to check it out. TLADT discord is Discord.gg

IMO Super Robot anime don't normally have that problem, at least to me. Like take G Gundam, for example. Domon, Master Asia, Schwartz, Chibodee, Allenby, that Russian, etc are all badasses. Or with Getter Robo, where both all 3 members of the team get their own spotlight to shine, although Ryoma does have a very dominating presence.


That's because Super Robot anime isn't sold based on one character ;p The double strong protag doesn't affect Dies Irae as it's not really about them per se anyways, was just pointing it out due to the effect of blunting the impact of one character Which I think you'd agree with.

I either agree with you, or don't understand the point you are making, or both!


My point was that stuff like Shana is sold by ONE character, who happens to not be the "main character." Hence, such series tend to shuttle out a wimpy main character to not steal the spotlight, because multiple strong characters by default blunt the impact of each. With Super Robot anime you'll get multiple strong characters, whom can't help but steal each other's thunder, but they're not predicated on selling on the power of one character (although sometimes off one mech >_>) so it's not a big deal.

I don't understand why Shana 2 was so much shittier with Yuuji becoming stronger, It just was, though I can't explain it

Shana 2 was so much shittier because over half the damn anime was only about that Shana-Kasumi-Konoe triangle, while ignoring everything that made the first season decent.

In Battle Moon Wars, in one of the last levels where you get Aoko, do any of you happen to remember what the Battle Mastery condition was? Its not showing up at the beginning, and I'm afraid I might dick around too much at the start and miss it.

If it is the one where you get to use Aoko and the one after that, they both had no battle mastery iirc.

Oh, okay, that makes it alot easier then. Now time for to brace for disappointment from that one Battle Mastery that I forgot to get early on biting me in the ass.

I would only really bother with Shana for the lulz the 3rd season will bring.

Actually, that's how I survived through season 2... by waiting for season 3.

EDIT : I actually liked the fight against Sabrac in season 2. I thought it was epic.

That was the only reason I watched season 2 myself. That was a really cool fight, too bad you had to watch through 20 episodes of shit to get to it.

I never made it that far, only about 11 episodes into the second season. Is it worth picking it up again for that fight? (only 10 more episodes to go?)
I can already see the ending

In my opinion, that fight was worth it (it's the only thing I really remember from season 2), but don't blame me if you are disappointed. Don't expect too much imo.

I don't know if the battle with + Show Spoiler +
Sabrac
is worth getting through a whole half season's worth of somewhat pointless development. =/

The OPs were all trolls, none of the battles were anywhere nearly half as epic as they were depicted in the OPs personally.

hmm, well finals are almost over and I will have a lot of free time this summer, I might give it a shot. I don't remember the OPs well, I skipped all the OPs and EDs after the first half of season 1. None of the songs after that were worth listening to so I didn't see any of those fights.
I can already see the ending

To be fair, we have no idea exactly how old Licia is. They were really vague about the exact timelines of things far as Licia arc goes.

But yeah Licia route was so good, largely because most of the cast other than the folks at the Prison got to participate.
