I watched an ep. 25, not sure if that's the OVA. It was good. Tied up a few questions I had.

Edit: Next up: Welcome to the NHK. (NHK ni Youkoso)

He also said this about Gargantia:

"Gen Urobuchi explained on the official website that the message of the story is aimed towards those in their teens and 20s, who are either about to enter into society or recently have, and is meant to cheer them on and to encourage them that "going out into the world isn't scary". He also said that the feeling of this work will be different from others he's been involved with."

So you shouldn't be expecting anything grimderp to begin with.

So I wanted to watch Patlabor but im not sure where to start. Movies or TV series? Also watching Gundam X right now and wow is Tiffa getting on my nerves. Almost as Omnipotent and messiah-esque as Lacus.

If that's true, he/they should have picked a different plot..... Hopefully something actually progressive will happen in Gargantia, because I feel like I wasted my last 48 minutes with it (zzz... the dancers...)

Also, Tatami Galaxy > Welcome to the NHK! If you liked NHK, I highly recommend checking it out, despite being slightly different in format.

How the hell can TIFFA get on your nerves? Omnipotent? What the fuck lol.

Patlabor has two different continuities. It has OVA/Movie timeline, and TV series timeline. IDK if what me and Echo did was production order or not, but we did the Early Days OVA first, then the 3 movies. Then we did the other timeline, TV Series->New Files OVA. The Early Days OVA is a mix of comedy and serious stuff (so it is good cross-section of the franchise overall). The movies are all serious stuff, although the 3rd one doesn't really seem like Patlabor (not that it is bad or anything). The TV series is mostly comedy/less serious stuff, with a few serious arcs thrown in here or there. I prefered the TV Series overall, but its all good.


Come on, don't you think your reaction to typical anime fan service is getting overblown now?

I dont see how it should be that troubling, if SOL episode = life wasted probably need to rethink the hobby.

I think he meant prophetic, rather than omnipotent

What I meant was everyone follows Tiffa. What she says, no one ever doubts they just blindly obey. The freiden has to put itself on the line just to save some dolphins. Another funny moment is when the one dude was about to blow himself up with a grenade and she tells him he must live, and hes like herp I dont have to kill myself now. That made me pretty angry.
