I finished Robotics;Notes earlier today. I thought it was damn good, and it's the first 2+ cours anime since Shinsekai Yori that I've watched in one sitting. Can we have a thread about this? While it wasn't as good as Steins;gate, I thought the characters were well done and that the entire series was a beautiful love letter to super robot shows of yore.
One question though, what was Airi's role in Kimijima's grand plan? And was the committee of 300 involved in his plan?
Also, why were normalfags buttblasted about Gunvarrel's last episode? I thought it would have made for an epic finale to a long running series. The ending felt like pure anime kino.
Asher Bell
I got this show mostly because I loved Real Drive and it looked similar. And because I like genki girls. But I have yet to try it.
Luke Morris
You should. The show is super comfy
Benjamin Price
Were you the user who posted asking about it yesterday? Either way I'm glad you enjoyed it, I think it's great as well for similar reasons. Very underrated show.
>Also, why were normalfags buttblasted about Gunvarrel's last episode? I thought it would have made for an epic finale to a long running series. The ending felt like pure anime kino.
It was a depressing ending to an otherwise "hype"-driven over the top optimistic mecha show. You don't just replace the ending of Gurren Lagann with Evangelion's for example, it'd be a big whiplash and alienating.
Michael Butler
Yea, I started the thread yesterday. Stayed up from ~7pm to 7am this morning, and crashed afterwards.
>You don't just replace the ending of Gurren Lagann with Evangelion's for example I see where you're coming from, although, I've always wanted to make show that would do that. Plus, the ending sounded like something from a late 70s/early 80s mecha anime. You know, the ones written by though were either children during or were born right after the Second World War, and so either grew up with the trauma or saw the trauma from interacting with parents or older siblings.
Samuel Foster
Best girl won.
Josiah Watson
You could say that scene had impact
Samuel Mitchell
I'm still watching it episode 16/17 is pointless drama that is fixed immediately and deus ex that fall out of the sky, why is sci;adv so dumb.
Jackson Sullivan
We needed more catgirl maid Aki
Joseph Price
The adaptation was ok at best. Many things get unexplained or unsolved. Do the sane thing and read the VNs
Nicholas Jackson
Speaking of the Science Adventure series, do I need to watch/play Chaos;head to understand chaos;child?
Nathaniel Cook
It's probably a good idea to play it but I doubt it's obligatory. Watching is a bad idea though, the adaptation was trash.
Ryan Cooper
It really is a shame how the adaptation and the source were both marred by poor pacing and heavy company pressure to produce the next cash cow.
Jaxon Smith
Please play the VN. The adaptation does not exist. I'd recommend you play C;H since the events of C;C are directly caused by what happens in C;H.
Gabriel Moore
the only memorable character i still remember. everthing else fall under the weight of s;g.
Landon Rivera
i like S;G LN & its anime very much, will i enjoy reading C;H & C;C LN?
Alexander Davis
A best.
Gavin Rogers
>C;H and S;G got their own sequel/midquel >R;N will never get one >not even a fandisc T-thanks, Chiyomaru.
Jackson Edwards
Sales numbers don't lie, sadly.
Jeremiah James
>C;H's sequel is already getting its own fandisc >S;G's midquel will inevitably too >R;N won't receive anything at all
I hate it
Samuel Moore
I don't know much about the LNs, but to me I'd feel like reading without experiencing it in a VN would be missing half the fun.
Brandon Foster
sorry i meant to write VN :*)
Juan Harris
Did it even got translated?
James Sanders
Nope
Cooper Fisher
It had a sequel game a year ago you twat, Steins gate 0.
Lucas Ward
It's shit and because it flopped we'll never get another 2 cour series from 5pb again. Fuck R;N.
Kayden Bennett
I'm not sure in what universe you think Steins;Gate 0 is a sequel to Robotics;Notes but no amount of Amadeus will make that the case.
Henry Reyes
But Steins;Gate is a midquel?
Daniel Howard
Well, fuck. It didn't even get a PC port, iirc
Noah Carter
>He thinks C;C won't be split cour
ayy
Isaiah Brown
Genki a cute.
Adam Barnes
I want to believe in you user, I really want to.
Joshua Ramirez
I'm actually laughing what is wrong with you people this show was so actual garbage
Brandon Scott
Its so sad that both this show and Real Drive had really high budgets for anime. And both had low ratings/BD sales. Its things like this that give anime companies reason to just skimp on the budget of most shows.
Juan Rodriguez
Well, R;N did got little bit of continuation in the manga, even though it takes place in another worldline for some reason.
Cameron King
Isn't that the Frau spin-off manga? That's why.
R;N got a fuckload of manga spin-offs right off the bat for the same reason it got an anime greenlit before the game was even out. They were really confident about it.
Chaos;Child has had only two manga since it came out and it took a while. Even S;G0 hasn't had any manga yet. In fact, S;G0 is responsible for the cancellation of the Pandora manga.
Ethan Jackson
...
Lucas Ramirez
Have you watched Occultic;Nine, user? One of the most impressive productions of the year and it's selling even worse than R;N did.
Jayden Murphy
Didn't S;G0 got some manga anthologies?
Jaxson Brooks
You're totally right, I completely forgot about it.
Matthew Sanchez
No. I watched Tawawa for my boob fix. And got crippling depression as a result.
Carter Wright
>There will never be a US English PC Release of R;N
Luke Anderson

>there is a timeline where c;h got 2 cour >instead we got this non special vn as 2 cour Played the VN , R;N is nothing special
Owen Kelly
They baited strongly with boobs in the first episode but hardly at all in most of the following episodes. O;9 was good as a SciADV megamix lite.
Isaac Hall
To each their own, user.
Juan Ward
I liked R;N more than C;H.
Jack Gomez
I didn't really like where the show went. The whole reason Aki's sister was such a bitch seemed like a really unsatisfying pay off.
Best girl kinda won though. Frau is still adorable.
Landon James
Convenience store woman's death scene was really silly.
Gabriel Taylor
Is it time?
Ethan Robinson
Pretty much. Best character of the show too.
Jason Hernandez
She Cracked
Colton Evans
I think they tried too hard to follow S;G's formula in R;N.
Jaxon Perez
Anubis is coming one day, I'm sure of it.
Jacob Price
I dunno how anyone can rank R;N above mediocre, but then you say SSY is good, so you're clearly an outlier.
