Why should it even be continued? The original one was ended on a good note. It worked as a standalone series pretty well.

Very.

BRING THEM BACK

Anything that gets brought back after a long cancellation is always going to be terrible.

This tbqh.

That said I wouldn't mind some regular racing antics/ interplanetary rally in some spinoff thing.

That said, OSR thread?

I kind of want them to do it in a cellshaded CGI like the original pilot/trailer was done.

These.

I don't think it needs a sequel but a spin-off could be good.

The original pilot worked for the vehicles and environments, but looked bad on the characters.

Is there french audio + english subtitles yet?
I am guessing not.

I told myself I was going to improve my French and then watch the show. Fast forward to now, and my French is still bad and I still haven't seen the show.

Might as well watch the dub, it's alright. Then again I've not heard the french audio so I can't say how it compares.

Then again there is still no good quality uploads of that.

>Are you excited?
Cautiously.

It's been 900 years...

Only if it's new characters

Very yes.

>ended on a good note
none of the political issue of their world were resolved, Avatar or not, you can easily build around the end of it to start a new epic story.
Maybe with less official races and more space gangs hit and run or guerilla tactics but that would just be fluff.

You are the reason IPs go bad.

>muh IP's special value
fuck off, retard.

Why bring something back if you're going to basically retool it into a new thing anyways? Go the extra half step and make it something new instead of baiting on nostalgia value.

Just make it about the next race after Jason became the avatar. Hell, go full DEEPEST LORE and brig back Molly as a grizzeled old woman training the newest racer for team earth. Perhaps that evil alien empire has expanded?

The most important thing, IMO, is to keep the other characters motivations legitimately worth fighting for. The best thing of Oban Star Racers was almost wanting some of the other racers to win.

>Narcisstic robot wanted to become alive and experience touch and emotion
>Horrifying tentacled crab monster wanted to bring its dead mate back to life
>Fetishy vampire sisters/lovers wanted to reunite their people
>Big miner guy wanted to liberate his planet from oppression
>Heiroglyphic looking guy, who was the last of his kind, wanted to return his species to their former glory

>oban star-racers coming back
Best show I watched in my last years of school.
If this comes back we might be entering another golden age of animation

I love Oban. Terribly overshadowed by far worse shows.

It's one of the most shamelessly HUMAN shows I can remember in recent times.

Which is ironic considering nobody had a nose.

NEVER SAY NEVER

Doesn't really need a sequel. It ended perfectly, and the series doesn't really have a big following to carry a revival like Samurai Jack.

Isn't the race held once in ten thousand years specifically to choose the next Avatar?
You can have other races obviously, but not THE race, unless you want it to take place in the far grimdark future.

Thing is, Genndy wanted to complete Samurai Jack and give it a proper conclusion at the original 52 episode order.

Oban Star Racers story concluded so a sequel, unlike Samurai Jack, is meaningless. It can still work with a story focus on new protagonists while keeping the thematics of the original intact and all.

It's my most favorite animated series ever. but I doubt they can make another one. From what I gather, picrelated failed to materialize, so there is no guarantee that Oban will

...

It's been "looking for funding" for years now, that's the problem

> It can still work with a story focus on new protagonists while keeping the thematics of the original intact and all.

I think this would be the best way to go, there's a decent amount of potential for follow up from where it left off but the best thing to do would be to have the sequel take place during the next race in the far future with an almost entirely new cast.

They are thinking about doing a spin-off.

Art style looks different. Aika (it seems to be, or at least one of his species) doesn't have that same Prince of Persia look as before.

FUCK YEAH MAN, THE SPACE VIKING BRO WAS ONE OF THE BEST PARTS. I'd be so down for this to be honest.

Rush was pretty good.

Isn't new Voltron basically Oban with super robots instead of podracing?

It's good, but I'm not sure how you made that connection.

Oban was a lot less war-y and violent from what I remember and a lot more about just doing the races while hoping that Earth doesn't get fucked, until the last few episodes I guess that is.

Looks like it's just a bit into the future, judging from Rush and what may be an older Aikka and Molly.

No clue what the premise would be but personally I'd hope they just go for some other racing championship or whatnot.

>aged-up Eva and Aikka

>late teenager Eva
>grown up Prince Aikka
>Interstellar Racing League
>hot and steamy sexual tension
>worst boy (a new one this time because the old one became god) gets the shit cucked out of him

>only men can be cucks

IT'S THE CURRENT YEAR

I have sexual fantasies about the Arrow

Yeah but there's like three shows on air about that right now

So a guy who falls for another guy, but the girl steals him away?

Pretty sure user meant two girls fighting over a boy to reverse what was going on in the original series.

bump

I still think this was a retarded control method.

>The original pilot worked for the vehicles and environments, but looked bad on the characters.

It also came out almost 20 fucking years ago, tech has improved a bit

Here's a thought, watch the show TO improve your french. It's what I did and now I live in a castle in France

>Read that as Obama Star-Racers
Goddammit

Will we get more of best hypnotist?

the cgi on the show still holds up, like the one in invader zim, using cgi only in non-living things really helps

>picrelated failed to materialize,

Dude is persistent, took him 10 years to get Molly made, he's gonna finish what he started there too

I'd watch that show.

>Oban Star Racers 2: Obama Star Racers

He could voice it too since he's not prez anymore.

It is a retarded control method. The Arrow was modified in this manner specifically so Molly could pilot it because her scooter is the only thing she knows how to drive.

Krillin syndrome

ondai was so cool

More because she couldn't reach the pedals because Rick is huge.

Should've just welded some extensions to it.

"Huge boisterous guy who becomes your best pal after you fight each other" is the best cliche

that´s something i loved about oban, the truce between the different races during the race, and it was great how the crogs wanted to go to war with everybody at the first opportunity

isn't this the show with that one tv head catgirl? If so, will this mean there willl be more porn of her?

Paradise? probably

I just want to see more of pic related

Yeah, that was a nice touch. Sort of like a space olympia that everyone, even Krogs, managed to respect.

I was wondering how long it would take for you to show up.

It's always about waifus with you people.

With things like Lastman and Wakfu season 3, I hope the network won't bother them to much with appealing to kids, and that they will be able to make a mature and smart show.

As I remember it Oban wasn't mindblowing in that regard but definitely had potential.

one of the best qualities of oban was it´s balance, it never went full kiddy as it also never went full dark and bloody, that way it was engaging enough to adults while not being and adult show , kids could watch it

I don't really want dark and bloody, but I remember a couple dumb passages that the show could have done without.

Is he one of Tzeetch's demons

REALEASE THE GODDAMN FULL OPENING SONG YOU KEKS

Love the outro. Reminds me a lot of TTGL for some reason.

Shit, that was a show that was forgotten quickly...

One of the composer also did TTGL.

I'm always astounded how nobody says "go back to Sup Forums" in Oban threads...

That's because it's French.

according to anidb it is anime anidb.net/perl-bin/animedb.pl?show=anime&aid=1737
and these guys are very faggy about this sтuff
anidb.net/perl-bin/animedb.pl?show=animelist&do.search=search&adb.search=last+airbender
it's not like I care which is it, but it puzzles me why it never seems to go this way here, on MFing Sup Forums...

Sup Forums doesn't care about this shit the way Sup Forums does.

The only time anyone gets told to fuck off back to Sup Forums is when they're posting smug anime girl reaction images.

It's not ALL about waifus. Oban was still a great show and I'd still enjoy it if Ning and Skun weren't in it. But yes, I would probably enjoy it more if they were.

Also Star Wars VII totally ripped off their bike designs.

Which queens are these supposed to be? I was going to say Elizabeth I on the left, but I don't recall there being another powerful queen at the time.

>Are you excited?
Tumblr can't give them awful red noses

Surprised Sup Forums isn't more hype for this.

I would be very excited if its a spinoff, Molly's story seems finished.
But let's be real, it wont happen.
