So if The Unlimited is a spin-off and it won't be canon, then the possibility of having a true 2nd season will be down to zero.

Of "The UNLIMITED", I imagine we won't get a second season. I don't think it's going to sell that well. But, we might see more ZKC main series animated. Which would be fun.

But, this really is a pretty fun series. I've really enjoyed it.

So the final fight is next week, hope they can save Yugiri. Like how Yoh only gave Andy a punch to settle it.

All I have to say is that those were some pretty questionable action scenes. Expect mooks and robot mooks to shoot like retards and then cap it off by letting the protagonists give some farewells to each other after surrounding them.

RRW · 2013-03-18, 17:12

I bet they graduated from Imperial Stormtrooper Marksmanship Academy

LKK · 2013-03-18, 18:18

I was surprised at how Andy's return wasn't that big a deal to the others. I suppose having Hyoubu (presumably) vouch for him eased their anger. But even still, I expected everyone to have a reaction similar to the flying squirrel's. While I liked the scene with Yoh, it certainly wasn't what I expected.

One thing I was unsure of at the end was just how many Yugiris were roaming the city. Just one? Or was there a small clone-Yugiri army wandering about?

Whoever has been in charge of the OP/EDs has been having way too much fun. This time they went all 70s on the OP. It looks really good, but it's a little strange to have an OP actually change that much week over week. Normally it's little things, not the entire after-effects library.

Yeah, the action scenes looked nice, but the Stormtroopers were pretty terrible, haha.

They had 3D glasses in the 70s :]?

That they did. (If I ruined a joke, my apologies.)

Figures it would take this stuff a long time to get beyond the iron curtain.

3D movies actually date to the 1950s. They were always thought of as an old, cheesy gimmick that popped up every now and then. Then they decided, with CG, that they could do it again and make more money.

Though it should be noted that Nintendo has a thing for 3D... for YEARS. They just didn't ever have the hardware to do it properly. So, this isn't really a new thing.

The OP going psychedelic was fun, though.

Daniel Lind · 2013-03-19, 08:28

So the story ties in the general plot in the end.
Man, there's a lot of respect towards the original in The Unlimited staff.
And hey, OPED meta is always welcome in high-tension shows like this.

Best OP change was the 2nd flashback episode (ep 8?), where it went all black & white plus some film reel effects.

LKK · 2013-03-19, 11:03

I meant to comment on the OP earlier. I felt as if someone's Crayola 64 colors box melted on the OP's cells.

(Did I just date myself with the Crayola reference?

)

Animators were definitely having fun with the OP and ED this week.

The series has been shown a lot of love. It doesn't have a huge budget, but it's well planned (minus that those fights scenes in ep 11, for the Mook was strong with them), with a lot of the production thought going into fairly cheap things. Rotating effects on the OP/EDs, several different songs and arrangements of them. Since this isn't a series that'll generate a huge number of BluRay sales, they put good sheen where they can and built up a nice set of side products.

We pretty much got a buddy adventure series, somehow. Which is a bit different than I expected.
