All I remember from that is octopus balls.

the GBA one was pretty cool

Where did the money come from to make Medabots look so good?

the animation, what the hell

robots do not bleed

Don't know, but I always loved how organic the first season looked, both the Medabots and the human character designs were very appealing to me, a bit minimalistic but still great.

Always loved Arcbeetle.

Is there some new nightly ritual when Sup Forums suddenly becomes Sup Forums or is that when everybody just stops pretending?

The GBA RPG is great, start there OP.

Money isn't a big issue when you have talented animators working on the show, they can make great stuff even with avarage budget.

this, the animators were just top notch for their time and they probably put their full heart and soul into it

I heard there were games for the Color and DS as well, but only in Japan. Is there any fan translation, or only the GBA ones that are in english?

what's a good place to download the show?

>Sup Forums
>talking about anything other than dime-a-dozen, otaku pandering, weebshit.

the GBA ones were pretty good
they had great ADs and animators in there for some reason
shit like Imaishi, Itano, Yoshinari, Yutapon
Goddamn, Medabots had no right looking as good as it did

Limewire.

all i find is "teen girl rails horsecock and squirts [email protected]"

The 3d browser game

Its a 10/10

I wonder how the fuck did the studio managed to snag those guys to work on a marketing campaign disguised as an anime.

Ufortunately, even with some amazingly animated sequences, it still didn't blow up enough to make the rest of the series get localized, only the GBA games.

In this episode Imaishi drew a medabutt upskirt.

The GBA RPG, which is a remake of 2, is pretty good. AX is neat.

Pretty much all the others are stuck in Japan, with the numbered titles all being on GBC and 3DS. The first game had a translation in the works but I haven't heard anything about it in over a year. The most recent game, Medarot 9, currently has a translation in the works that seems to be making steady progress.

Truly /ourguy/

This episode had some insane human faces though. It was so extreme and over the top. Truly memorable animation

>Medarot 9
Holy shit, is the series that popular on Japan, or is it so low budget that it pays the development cost with a couple dozen copies sold?

The only Medabot games in english are for GBA and Gamecube, everything else is Japanese.
GBC has most of the mainline, DS has one game, and the 3DS has 5; 3 mainline and 2 spinoffs
There are some fan translation projects, but I don't know if any of them are finished

Pretty weird, but hey, it's kinda hot, so I ain't complaining.

Man, whenever I see these artworks, it just doesn't click with me. I'm too used to the show's simplistic character design to dig the look of the humans in the newer games.

>you won't live long enough to have your own customisable robot buddy
thanks for the reminder user, time to watch Medabots again

They put them out yearly in the GBC days, like MMBN/SF or a Level-5 property, until sales plummeted to ubsustainable levels after 5 and the series went on hiatus after a couple GBA spin-offs and remakes. 2 actually broke a million in Japan though and the GBC era was generally pretty popular, like probably what is Sonic levels of popularity there. There was a 6 on the DS, but it wasn't numbered and 7 on 3DS totally retconned it. Those two both sold a couple hundred thousand units, 8 sold several ten thousand which was worse but still enough to make money for the budget, 9 sold like total shit due to fatigue and bankrupted one of the devs.

>Dat side boob

DS robo arena

Pretty much this.

The 3DS games has had a whole lot of artstyle changes over each game. The last game the original character designer worked on was M6/DS. It's looks pretty different from his previous works, though

Did that one pandering to girls worked out for them? Looks like they need strike gold fast or they'll be gone for good.

Bombed even harder

So, is it safe to assume that Medabots is dead as fuck?

Yeah, sorry user.

"Starting July 1st, 2016, Rocket Company will be no more. The Japanese publisher behind the Medarot games will be merged with its parent company Imagineer. The move is being made as Imagineer plans to transition its business to focus less on packaged software for dedicated gaming devices and more on games for smart phones/tablets. While the company will continue to release games on dedicated platforms, worsening market conditions will see fewer titles launch as they review their business strategy."
I think the company died already.

It did better than 9, but worse than the other two numbered 3DS games and the prior spin-off with the same action gameplay style, Dual.

I think they ought to just go on hiatus for a generation again and come back with a 10 down the road. Then start pacing out the releases better for stronger longevity.

Mad thanks for the webms, OP. Completely forgot how great the show looked

Medarot
MEDAROT
NOT MEDABOTS

Imagineer has always been the owner and still seems to be around, but shutting down Rocket makes it clear we won't see Medarot for a good time.

They shouldn't want watermelon's either, but here we are.

Besides those are just bullet effects, not blood.

>freeroaming arena shooter battles
instantly top of the pile given every Medabots game i've tried from GB->NDS are all identical trash with the same terrible waiting-for-robutts-to-walk rpg battle system.

end of evangelion quality holy shit

If only they were good at making those as well, because that looks like trash. They should give it to a developer who can either do good unique turn based battles, or good third person arena shooters.

Like, imagine Medarot with a gameplay similar to Virtual On, or Border Break.

I would play the shit out of that

i take it everyone dropped medabots S2 on the first episode like me (or never bothered to pick it up)?
ive never seen anyone ever post a screenshot/webm of it ever.

I can't find webms on it, my guess is that since the studio behind season 2 wasn't the same as season 1, they didn't get all the good ass animators as well.

I remember watching it and liking it, but not as much as the first season, and I can't really remember if it also had the same bursts of amazing animation the original had.

I had a crush on the engineer qt girl.
And the gun medabot was fucking hilarious but the season sucks ass.

There was a PS1 spin-off too, and a gamecube game.

>There was a 6 on the DS, but it wasn't numbered and 7 on 3DS totally retconned it.
For a good reason too. DS is seriously one of the most boring games I ever played, I couldn't beat it. Medarot 7 on the other hand kicks ass and is one of the better Medarot games I played.

I don't know what was up with the art style on DS but it looked horrendous.

Isnt there a medabots 3ds game that was nip exclusive all about cute gurls and medabots?

>Still no translations of any of the games
I just want to play 5, damn it.

Gameplay wise I think it was a step in the wrong direction, removing Medaforce and Medachange in favor of the combo system which I didn't really like. Plus, probably had the most un-fair final boss fight I had to deal with for a long while.

Medarot design is just bizzare. Not really bad but it feels different than the previous entries and there are almost no re-occouring medabots. If I had to compare it's like the jump from Gen1 Pokemon to Gen2 Pokemon.

Characters are really likeable and it's one of the prettier GBC games I played. It could have been a really fantastic game if it wasn't cut short. Seriously, due to budget issues or whatever the game abruptly ends and it feels like it. Imagine getting hit with the end-game dungeon when you don't even feel like you're halfway through the game.

Also had decent waifus.

I liked DS' art in-game, maybe it just grew on me, but in promotional material and the like it was definitely a fucking mess.

OMG!!!!

Dude I remember that shit. I wish it was still available :(

Well that's unfortunate to hear. My interest to play it one day will not dwindle however... whenever that may be.

Please tell me I wasn't the only one who loved all the scenes involving the medabot market/buying and testing new parts.

Best medawaifu coming thru.

No.

It was just too boring for me. Medarot 7 is so much better it's not even funny.

Don't get me wrong, It's still worth playing in every sense of the word. Even if the gameplay isn't as good as Medarot 4 it's still fun as fuck, and the story and characters are really fun until the game ends.

The only mainline game I think isn't worth playing so far is DS.

Let me stop you right there.

Well, the guy who animated that sequence did work on Evangelion as well.

>We will never get another Medarot Navi
It was my favorite of the bunch, and had the best waifus
Also I feel like Tooru Nakayama's artstyle fits pretty well for Medabots.

Peppercat?

ITS TIME TO BATTLE

I, MR. REFEREE, WILL ACT AS REFEREE

Then it's agreed!

more like matingpresscat

I really tried getting into Navi but I just can't into SRPGs. Shame too because the animations look awesome and the game sports some nice ideas.

Character design is ass though.

Peppacat

why is the first game so fucking hard, im still stuck in medabotland. its kabuto version btw

I played a lot to the GBA games when I was a teenager.

test

???

i enjoy how the details were added where it mattered, all human characters were plain almost lack of shading but the robots had the best details in fight which was really awesome and smart to save the budget where it should, too bad its sequel was shit

...

...

user pls

Haven't played the newer games but this one's a qt.

What's wrong, user?

I can tell

Kuwagata > Kabuto

fuck you

Nice butt.

I've never played a Medabots game before, what's the best one I can emulate on a shitty laptop?

>too bad its sequel was shit
I fucking feel ya, man.

>Rewatch Medabots a few years ago
>It was fucking amazing, loved basically every episode and had an amazing time
>Move on to Medabots Damashii
>Most of the supporting cast is just gone
>No real connection to the previous events
>Mindless Kilobot villains every episode instead of anything with any personality whatsoever

I just couldn't watch past five episodes, and this was from the same studio that did fucking GitS SAC. What the fuck.

Medabots RPG and AX, both on GBA. That's pretty much it unless you know Japanese.

Same, even as a kid I noticed how awful the quality drop was.

all the good ones are in jap so basically ur fuked

>Henry/Hikaru was the original protagonist of the first Medabot game
>Ikki takes the mantle of Phantom Renegade later in the game series
That's pretty cool

Only ones I played were the rpg GBA ones and the battle arena GBA ones. The rpg felt like shit but the arena one was alright so long as you're Rokusho(?)

medabots?

Was the dub even considered good? lol

RoboroboRoborobo

I rewatched it recently, and it's enjoyable enough. People like Metabee's angry black guy voice, I recall. I never got around to watching the subs some /m/ user was working on a little while ago.

Robo

>mfw i'm the /m/ user you're talking about
Final batch is coming very soon, the editor is taking his time but he's almost done.

Roborobo

Not him, but do have any links to share ? Or should I just check out the archives for /t/ and /m/ ?

Oh baby.
