[@reneklaczak9566]

@@goddepersonno3782 i don't think so. They weren't bad, but OG code geass was in my opinion much better. But you can think what you want, im not saying OG Code Geass was flawless, in fact i think that lelouch was bassicaly the main selling point of the series and everything else was not as good as people say, but the OVA are not anything extra, and animation is the only thing that's better than OG Code Geass

[@goddepersonno3782]

@@reneklaczak9566 the characters are well developed and most of them have motivations. Some of them are even complex and nuanced. Whereas with Code Geass it felt like the characters conformed to the plot, with the OVAs it felt like the plot evolved to support the themes and characters. I think the problem is both have such completely different selling points. Code Geass is all about this complex plot with twists and turns as well as interesting strategy. Meanwhile the OVA series is more of a character driven story. I will always prefer that over an outstanding plot because in if you don't have good characters you can't really get invested in what happens in the story, so all the twists, turns, and strategies are greatly reduced because of this. However I am not the main audience of Code Geass, so the majority of die hard fans who would actually bother to watch OVAs wouldn't like it.

Iron Blooded Orphans was great, especially for someone who has never watched Gundam before. First season is just fantastic. Made me feel sick when Tekkadan was charging across the bridge and getting slaughtered. Even tho they were no-names, their deaths were pretty brutal + being child soldiers made it really gut-wrenching. It hits even harder when you see Shino get demolished by Graze Ein(even tho he ended up living). "The Shoals" and "Funeral Rites" were also a fantastic pair of episodes to end the first half of that season. I think IBO really appeals to western scifi lovers. It's more grounded than other Gundam series in terms of combat and the setting should feel very familiar to any BattleTech/MechWarrior fans. Or if you watch/read The Expanse.

Its got a rating of 9.1 out 10

[@jonathanlahey4319]

I started liking it more when I realized it was actually a Mecha in disguise. It’s still not as good as its popularity merits, the characters are pretty unlikeable and make very random decisions, the writing is quantifiably on the poor side and the generic titans are pretty embarrassing design-wise, but, for what it’s worth, it does have a very unique/interesting plot and strong visuals. It also really seemed to get way better in season 2 when characters got *way* less abrasive and stopped yelling at each other constantly for no reason or just generally being dickish. I chalk the overwhelming popularity up to that line in Jurassic Park “look at all the blood!” People are fascinated with the edginess of it, strung along by the inherent mystery in the plot and mistake that for “good, mature writing” meanwhile it has a near total lack of fanservice so people don’t get insecure and squeamish. It’s a decent show, but much closer to a 6 than a 9.

There's truth in that, but at the same time, you have to find story concepts that work better using mechs as a plot device than something else. This does naturally set up genre conventions as you need to do things to maintain verisimilitude and ask yourself things like "could I tell this story better using magic instead of mecha?" The problem is more that mecha, as a genre has moved from being like action and fantasy genres and become more like the ecchi genre.
