Actually now that you say its a shame we didnt get a Big O movie out of this. With the right budget and animators you could do a really decent mecha noir anime type thing.
Also from season 2. The love story between Dorothy and Roger was creepy. She's supposed to be a 15 year old android. And then theres the scene with her in the passenger seat of the butlers motorcycle. And for one moment just one moment we get Big O the hentai. When the missile launcher pops up. Dorothy's legs go spread eagle and lots of missiles come flying out. The writers have issues.

You two are alone.
...and perverted.
Anyway, I agree with pretty much everything LLG has said here.
Then again, we've discussed it at length recently.
Also, a movie would be badass.
Perhaps a detailed story of how Roger came across Big O, as opposed to the terse stage scene. _________________ This space left intentionally blank.

Don't expect a lightning pace. The topic's been covered at length before, and we don't have any Narutards to speed things along.
Hell, I think the length of your first post scared them all away. _________________ This space left intentionally blank.

All of my thoughts on Big O are in that old thread. I haven't seen the show since the second season originally aired, so I really don't remember a lot of the minor details that make an analysis of such a show possible. Sorry. _________________ anime is teh s uck

Yes he does! :p Isn't that right, Bono?
S'ok Counter. :p I'm just catching up on a lot of anime that most everyone else had seen. However, I refuse to watch the infamous "N" show. Yeah. It's getting as hyped up as "Inuyasha" was. Ugh.
What I wish would have happened in the end of Big O is this- Big Foul's real deuse is Angel, and the scars on her back were where the big had connected to her once. She ends up being one of three keys the unlocking everyone's memories. Roger is another key, and the last being Seabach. Rosewater (the younger) gets booted out of Big Foul, and of course screams at the injustice, going underground to try and ressurect the Megas. The contract the Elder Rosewater had made with Roger turns out to actually be this: To keep the memories of the past locked away and kept safe from those who would try to manipulate them- in other words, the younger Rosewater and the union.
Since Seabach is dead, they have to find another way to finally release the memories of the past. Beck gets recruited for this task, as his own memories seemed to be strong enough to break through and since he obviously knows things that would otherwise be very damaging. The three Bigs get together- and, at the same time, shoot their beams into a center point. The Bigs, who at this point have connected with all three, break into their locked memories, which changes the the colors of each beam- and as the concentraited energy gets bigger, rather than it being the typical purple ball as we've seen it becomes when two bigs shoot at each other at the same time, it becomes an enveloping ball of white light, and the series ends, leaving the veiwer to wonder if it worked as well as paving the way for season three, or a movie.
Whaccha think? _________________ For every second John Bono spends reading one of your posts, there is a second where I'm not getting any sex. Please be concise.

I re-read all 25 pages of the main Big-O thread. And I noticed my frustration just growing and growing. Although i said that I could see how a season 3 could be done. Looking back on it I really dont.
They wont be redoing ep26. And I doubt we will see a new season unless the DVD sales improve. After CN paid for Season 2 to be made it was shown less then 10 times in repeats. And hasnt been shown in quite a while. Which means I dont think CN has much faith in the series anymore.
Plus with Megas cancelled. No signs of Big O season 3. The only mech series to look at on CN right now is the new Transformer series. And if this is a sequel to Energon. Well thats not to promising a sign is it? We need a new Gundam series I think. Or at least a rerun of (thonks head... crap forget its title) the Gundam that followed the one squad around. Mobile Suit Gundam?
Angel isnt the true pilot of Fau. No one is the true pilot of Fau (i still prefer calling it fowl over the way that weak VA did it). Fau is a combination of parts from three different Deuces. Though this part is a bit conflicting from the series. At one point its mentioned that the mechs we see at the end of ep 13 were actually just shells carrying parts for fau. And at another point we are told that the three suits are salvaged to make fau. Although fau is more Duo then any other Big. And we know that Duo isnt destroyed or partsed out. In fact its rebuilt again. And we dont know whos memories were used to create Fau either.
Since Fau is a combination Big you have to wonder what memory it was using when it went mad. Plus the "memories" Angels was after were supposedly stored in an underwated Big in season 1. Which after ep 26 makes absoultley no sense.
Reading back through the episode guide I cant see how we didnt know it was New York City. They didnt hide it at all. Electric City is Niagra Falls also pretty blantanly.
There are so many ways season 2 should have gone and it didnt follow any of them. It decided to be both a copy cat of season 1 and then ignore season 1 entirely.

I think it's actually time to bring back 08th MS Team, 0080, and 0083. I think all could use the exposure, considering how little each got (save 08th MS Team, which I think got 4 run throughs).
I also think 0080 would get a better reception than it did before on today's more thinking AS crowd that it did before. (Perhaps replacing SAC for a bit?)
Though considering how long it's been since any good Gundam shows (SD and G Gundam were not good), I think anything will do. _________________ This space left intentionally blank.
