I'm still mad

I'm still mad

slaine did nothing wrong

How sad is it that so many newshits got into this and won't let go?

I wonder what happened with Eggs
Is he now considered a war hero?, since he basically did everything in this series

Guista was such a disappointment

slaine was cuck of the year desu senpai

By what definition?

I still watch the openings because of how enjoyable they were.

>literally who appears at the end and cucks eggs, SLAINE?, and the viewers
My sides will never recover

I only watched this show for Inaho

Eh eggs was more of a piece of hardware than a person

You are one sad motherfucker

Why are people mad? I just watched this a few weeks ago.

Slaine had one of the most delicious male character designs in recent memory.

Inaho pulling shit out of his ass was the only reason I finished it desu

Absolute shit show. No need to be mad about it. It's in the trash.

true

This.

>literally who also happens to be able to resolve the entire plot

Time heals all pain

All he managed to do is beat up one guy and the princess decided to marry him.

Why?

How season 1 should have ended.

>S3 with Punished "Venom" Eggs and Slaine Miller- A Visionary Robbed of His Waifu never

He's retarded?

Inaho was never much of a leader

slaine?

Very true. I really liked how his character progressed.

SLAINE?

Who knows. Sawano's tracks with Inaho destroying things with ease gives me a strange satisfaction

S3 when?

What about chronic pain?

You can find this worthwhile thread about a show that finished over a year ago on /m/ too and be mad along with them as well

Did the Butcher ever receive any criticism about his role in this disaster? I know he only wrote the first three eps and the scenario.

Aoki said in an interview they stayed close to Butcher's original outline, the outline included hime ditching Slaine and Inaho in ep23. Butcher just tried to get the fuck away from it at some point. His original version would have had different personalities for the characters (Aoki is the one responsible for that here) and one could argue that his writing would have improved that outline, but we can only speculate. In any case, he distanced himself from it quickly and I don't remember people connecting it to him much after the reveal that he only wrote 3 episodes.

I literally just finished the second season. What a fucking disaster. I'm glad I was busy and left here just before it aired, I would've killed myself.

These fucking cuckolds. THIS is how it ends?

Hime was a ravenous pupil stealing hoe, Orange and Bat are better off with their current Lima-Stockholm relationship.

Don't know why people tried to defend him. Its not like all of his ideas have to be good.

From what people claimed the differences in characters were supposed to be there wasn't much improvement.

Why would you call two men who dodged a bullet cucks?

On the plus side Aoki hasn't gotten any more work since this piece of garbage.

My biggest problem is the small time gap the Martians were away from Earth. I guess I can kinda buy that "divine power" makes you think you're a superior race, but Saaz not knowing about chicken cracked me up. There are too many inconsistencies in their knowledge about Earth.

but that is how season 1 ended

He directed an episode of that cake detective anime. It was shit.

The issue wasn't just the personality of the characters but how the characters were used. Did we really need the entire cast coming back from the dead multiple times? Did anyone want the entire Earth cast except for eggs being entirely incompetent? Did anyone actually like how all of eggs' plans succeeded without a hitch and how he went undefeated over the whole series?

Urobochi is hit or miss at the best of times, but he's definitely less of a hack than the people who were in charge of A/Z--the second part especially.

So many people liked the Mars bros, it's a shame so many of them were monster of the week. I can't believe they threw all of Egg's personality into side materials. Iirc in the short Kaizuka backstory novel he traps some kids who bullied him (and Yuki?) and throws rocks at them until one is seriously hurt. I preferred Slaine and his side much more, but they should have shown Inaho's flawed side and given the others more spotlight. Like Marito in that Femieanne episode, he deserved some character progress in that one.

>he traps some kids who bullied him and throws rocks at them until one is seriously hurt
Because they threatened to throw rocks at Yuki from the upper floor until she was hurt enough to make him cry. He did it to protect her.

Why did Inaho take Hime's marriage announcement so lightly? That's what confuses me the most. Didn't he decide he wanted to be with her or some shit? Wasn't that mainly the point of the season 1 ending?

Ah yes, I remember it now. I still think showing him in a dangerous but very protective light would have been interesting. The anime tried to do it, but it didn't seem serious enough.

Background doesn't make much sense. Don't know whose fault that is.

>Did we really need the entire cast coming back from the dead multiple times?

No need to exaggerate, none of the characters shot in episode 12 dying was a major disappointment, but without the shooting it would have just been boring and Aoki tried to follow the plot.

>Did anyone want the entire Earth cast except for eggs being entirely incompetent?
That also happened in the first 3 episodes, probably more than the rest of the show.

>Did anyone actually like how all of eggs' plans succeeded without a hitch and how he went undefeated over the whole series?
Some people said they did, but I thought it was retarded.

He was forced back when Slaine sent in the three counts the first time.


>Urobochi is hit or miss at the best of times, but he's definitely less of a hack than the people who were in charge of A/Z--the second part especially.
Not really it was his idea.

>Didn't he decide he wanted to be with her
No. He wanted to protect her, not hog her to himself. He respected her will and only took action when her plans backfired.

It was never really confirmed that Inaho was in love with Hime, iirc

Only characters with explicit romantic feelings were Inko and Lemrina.

>He wanted to protect her, not hog her to himself. He respected her will and only took action when her plans backfired.
Not related to your post entirely, but I feel like people have the wrong opinion of Slaine when it comes to this. He was the same and wanted to protect her, but he firmly believed that her plans would backfire (realistically the peace makes no sense) and wanted to stop her. If some of the counts planned to assassinate her and they almost conquered Earth at that point, the chances of her plan working weren't that optimal.

>it's a shame so many of them were monster of the week
More like monster of the weak

Slain plan was the most logical, get the earth and begin everything from 0. He just surrended because hime got bullshit support out of nowhere.

Im more mad for the whole no problem peace ending though (and getting slain be the one at fault for everything)

I feel like the main character of the new gundam was kind of a shot at eggs, same sort of calm and collected but they actually do shit with him being like that instead of just being eggs

They are both from the same scriptwriter but wanted a different angle. Inaho had his sister, Mika never had a blood relative as support

Alternative reality idea: Inaho with living parents, will he be less autistic with at least a father figure?

>They are both from the same scriptwriter
That is not right at all, aldnoah zero was written by someone completely different than IBO which was mainly written by mari okada and sometimes obari, aldnoah was made by the literal boku no pico guy who also wrote FMA 2003

I wonder what's Aoki is working on right now.

I'm not. Best boys ended up together, princesses got BTFO or sold into sexual slavery to new royal masters and the Patriarchy endures. Any series where useless sluts lose out is AOTS.

A lot of things in the production don't make sense.

If he created the episodes outline then he should be credited with series composition but he wasn't. Boku no pico guy did and had control of what generally happens in every episode.

What happened to Urobuchi's original idea of a monster movie with robots?

How could he write the outline of what happened in the series without creating any of the characters?

Why did he leave production in the first place? He created all the background material, why wouldn't he finish his job? Also why did Iwakami leave when butch did and replaced by a qt producer?

Why would he create the setting, have a different guy create the series outline and even another create the characters so he could write 3 episodes?

>He was the same
Not really. The only thing they have in common is both wanting her to be safe but everything else was the opposite, mainly when it comes to the concept of her own will and freedom. Inaho let her have her way while supporting her and respecting her wishes. For instance, he let her invade Saazbaum's castle and deactivate the drive from the inside, something that put her life on the line but was the result of her own decision. Instead of stopping her, Inaho came up with a plan to back her up. Slaine on the other hand wanted to protect her so much he was willing to lock her in a cage for eternity if that was what it took to keep her safe. You can argue that Slaine wasn't entirely in the wrong in being afraid because she was a target, but with her being the leader that sort of comes with the job. Inaho also feared for her life but it's her own decision to make, just like it was his sister's decision to enlist, or his own decision to continue in the army as well. It's not exactly the same as when you see a friend doing something terribly wrong, force them to stop and then they thank you later - the princess is a political figure in a war zone, you can't lock her in a room until the war is over and expect her to thank you for saving her life afterwards, just like you can't stop a sibling, parent or friend from going out and doing their job if it's one that puts their life on the line. In the end when it comes to Slaine and the princess, he was only being selfish because he couldn't deal with the thought of losing her again.

Very satisfying, in my opinion.

> For instance, he let her invade Saazbaum's castle and deactivate the drive from the inside, something that put her life on the line but was the result of her own decision.
Inaho wasn't obsessed with Asshime at that point, his real obession started in the 2nd season.

Q: Will Slainefags ever recover?
A: No, not ever.

It makes sense, people are just misinformed and love spreading gossip.

Butcher only came up with the very basic concept that Aoki and Boku no pico reshaped. People like to credit Butcher because his name grabs attention but his involvement was limited to giving out ideas for the initial setting. The confusion comes from him writing the first three scripts but that was kind of an additional job more than anything. He himself admitted he wasn't familiar with the characters, so scriptwriting those episodes was no different than him writing scripts for a random show he has no connection with. The only character he came up with when giving out his ideas was Slaine and he was literally Lelouch before Aoki turned him into what he is now.

>people are just misinformed and love spreading gossip.
>The only character he came up with when giving out his ideas was Slaine

I wonder how quickly he ducks out of Thunderbolt Fantasy if things go south quickly there too. He's one of those VN writer types whose entire image and marketability revolves around a perceived cult of infallibility after all

That goes beyond the point. Even now she's traveling around the world arguing with angry Martians while risking her life and he isn't stopping her.

...

It's in one of the Newtype's interviews with Aoki and the voice actors. The one with blue pages.

Its funny how fast the marketing for that guy went from esteemed up coming director after Fate to non-existent following Aldnoah

Long time no see but /m/ is the other way.

>He was the same and wanted to protect her, but he firmly believed that her plans would backfire (realistically the peace makes no sense) and wanted to stop her. If some of the counts planned to assassinate her and they almost conquered Earth at that point, the chances of her plan working weren't that optimal.
Which is why the ending was so stupid at that point.

I'm pretty sure butch was supposed to write all the episodes, Iwakami reached out to him and Aoki in the same way he did before with Madoka, the production seem to follow the example of madoka, even relying on character designs that contrasts with butch's style of writing.

I watched season, thought it was "alright", never went back.
Then I heard that both Inaho and the princess were actually alive and I instantly decided that I'd made the right decision.

I got the impression Butcher backed off shortly afterwards because he was busy with something else. He was absent from most of the production.

Very basic outline and following it was half of the problem with the series.

He probably backed off because they had a different idea of what to do with the show, it's the only thing that explains Iwakami backing off too.

Urobuchi is always busy, he was already planning the puppet thing when Gaim wasn't even finished.

Remember how Slaine's father was supposed to be a super important figure and was NEVER ACTUALLY SPOKEN OF IN TERMS OF HIS ACCOMPLISHMENTS

This show cucked me almost as hard as it cucked the two protagonists

Enjoyable ending had it ended with season 1.

Cool Story Bro

The second opening convinced me to give the second season a go. It was misleading.

>Nothing resolved
>Shit season wasted
>enjoyable

Wow...you're fucking stupid

Everybody, but Slaine was dead.

Any details about the setting never helped with enjoyment.

It was in the last episode.

>main robots torn in half
>Inaho longing for princess he never meets again
>Slaine conflicted turning his back on her
>caged sad Lemons
>puffy Dorito
>irrelevant characters in the background
>forced rivalry battle
>robots in space
>fabulous Martians
>Sauce sleeping forever
>Slaine and Inaho falling into Earth's orbit

Unless you were expecting Slaine and Inaho naked newtypes, I'd say you got everything the OP promised.

>slaine gets his princess taken away

I wasn't that mad since the panty and stocking ending.

What? Really? I remember him being name dropped throughout the series but nothing about his importance
I should stop watching finales drunk. Do you remember his significance?

I guess it just looked better? It was a nice opening. Honestly, I was "fine" with the second season until the last two episodes.

I love that ending for thoroughly breaking the spirits of every slainefugo who was delusional enough to expect him to have a good end.

To be fair there has always been a large time frame between Aoki's shows and he has stated he's working on a new show last year. And he hasn't even done that much so I never got why he's considered a big deal.

He was working on making Aldnoah drives work without the royalty.

He also saved Saazbaum.

It was during the part where they were shitting on Slaine for starting the war in the exposition.

Ironically they were calling the father benevolent, but if you notice him being friends with Saazbaum and trying to get rid of what kept the royalty in power makes it seem like he was a bit of a revolutionary himself.

>I should stop watching finales drunk.
I watched the last two episodes with a friend.

Me and a friend turned it into a drinking game for the last 3 episodes he drank when Inaho was autistic.

>Aldnoah Zero

More like Cucknoah Zero amirite?

Literally the worst show in the past 20 years. Slaine was a hero, everybody else was fucking retarded. and that onii-sama tier bullshit was horrible

>but he firmly believed that her plans would backfire (realistically the peace makes no sense) and wanted to stop her.
We don't see him ever say or even think this. If the show actually showed him attempting negotiations and failing I could buy it, but he doesn't. He does a load of shit she would disapprove of and when she wakes up doesn't even want to tell her the truth and hides her away and when she does ask him what he's trying to do he does it in an ambiguous as fuck way.

He was a zero. He accomplished fuck all.

>He does a load of shit she would disapprove of and when she wakes up doesn't even want to tell her the truth and hides her away and when she does ask him what he's trying to do he does it in an ambiguous as fuck way.
Doesn't help her case that she TRICKED HIM AND PULLED A GUN ON HIM like a true friend would, hell her concern wasn't even about the shit you brought up she just wanted him to stop something he was powerless to do.

>We don't see him ever say or even think this. If the show actually showed him attempting negotiations and failing I could buy it
First thing that happened after he contacted them the first time was get shot down.

Every scene in S1 with the orbital knights showed that they wanted to fight. Only one orbital knight who was actually fighting in the show was against the war.

>He does a load of shit she would disapprove of
He was just doing his job until he made earthspace and before that it was her grandfather in charge.

>when she does ask him what he's trying to do he does it in an ambiguous as fuck way.
He was pretty clear he wanted to win the war.

I wish Slaine had at least been half as competent as Char.
He was fun to watch but beyond starting the coup he couldn't do much because "muh asseylum"
