And my hype for this series drops a couple notches after seeing those character designs. EVOL had great designs, but these may be the worst of the three series.

The original two mecha are duking out with new attacks and the new mecha will form from six vectors, yet all anyone can talk about is character design not being good? The fact that Nobunaga The Fool's director is on this gives this hope! Problem is will it be monster of the weeky like the original series or be self-referential and talky like EVOL? Will the antagonists be trying to survive like in Genesis or be pure evil like in EVOL? The only downside to this is Yunoha being back and obvious fan catering to the shipping with her and Jin (which I thought did not deserve the attention it got).

This is one of the reasons (among many other things) why I was absent in EVOL thread during the heyday (though part of it is me being too lazy to get into debate of such glorious trainwreck, pretty much like Guilty Crown and today’s Cross Ange). In fact, the same thing happen this very season with the “war” between Team-Inaho & Team-Slaine in Aldnoah thread. A so-bad-it’s-good series that is enjoyable to watch but not really worth discussing or debating. Depends on how this LOGOS turns out, I may or may not do the same: sit back munching popcorn watching the chaos ensues. Though I did participate in the thread of that dreck Nobunaga The Fool due to Caesar's charm .

Caesar was the best. XD I wish he got his own show, adventuring around many worlds and trying to woo Ichi, with a hapless Mitsuhide as an ineffectual villain. XDDD (Sorry Mitsu, I just can't take you seriously XD maybe if you were half as cool as the other Mitsuhide we got last year... then again, that one was born as Oda Nobunaga.) |

I have never been so instantly put off by character designs like I have with Logos. Everyone's ugly. Everyone. Those worked with Outbreak Company but here... yuck.
I'm not feeling Shimazaki's voice these days and I certainly didn't in this PV. R.O.N and May'n are a neat on the music front but no Akino and Kanno further lowers my already sinking interest. I'll still give it a try, if and when I ever feel like it. |

I couldn't actually listen to the PV yet (where the hell are my headphones), but if he's off hopefully it's just because it's prerecorded stuff without him having had any character context. I thought he was really good in Daimidaler, so if he can do that kind of hot-blooded again I'll be happy.

Also how was Nobunaga the fool? I was also under the impression that it was considered a trainwreck by a lot of people, but it could be typical anime circlejerking. |

Let's hope the same thing doesn't happen to Logos.

Spoiler for Long Reply:
I could be wrong but the white? Silver? Haired girl looks like Zessica, if she is her reincarnation and is similar in character then I just found my "possibly" favorite character, let's just hope history doesn't repeat itself twice. Let's hope the new mc is actually likeable, just have him be as epic as Kagura was but without the obsession and without his horribly worse half (Amata) with an even worse obsession walking around. Also I will call bs if there is no fabulous gay angel trolling the mc's.

I'll certainly be on board for the OVA of EVOL. I simply adore Apollo's and Silvia's relationship in every stage, so seeing them together again in an all-new showing is worth a watch in itself =03. I still have bitter feelings about the horrible love triangle of Amata/Zess/Mikono and how it was horribly skewed in Mikono's favor, but I can't miss the chance of seeing the original cast in action.
This new Aquarion though...well it doesn't look too pleasing to the eye, that's for sure , then again, I'm getting through g-Reco, so this isn't all too bad for me to withstand. For me, the most important thing in Aquarion though is the synergy of the cast. That is what the core of what made the show interesting(and why Evol doesn't hold a candle to the original). As long as they have some interesting interactions with one another, I'll be in, regardless of what I think about the animation style. Of course, that's only if they don't try to pull that favoritism shit like in Evol at the beginning of the series; I have no intentions on sticking around long enough to tolerate it this time =0\.
