Hey /cm/, I'm gonna watch Gurren Lagann to see what's the hype all about. Wish me luck that I will return the same person.
you'll return as a man.
>>405256And then once the next two episodes of Code Geass get subbed, I'll lose my manhood, right?
Code Gayass has no reason to be mentioned in this manly thread!
>>405262YOU'LL RETURN TYPING IN CAPSLOCK, FRIEND.
>>405265MOAR *__*
>>405265I'd rape that guy, and I know things work differently in GL threads, but you might get bitched at for posting cosplay (=real people)
>>405265It's my thread, silly.
>>405265I'D LET HIM PIERCE MY HEAVENS IF YOU KNOW WHAT I MEAN.
>>405274AAAAAAAAAHAHHAHAHAHA.I want that on a t-shirt |:
>>405274you lost me.
a kitten is fine too.
>>405385Lol, it's spelled "Kittan"
>>405256Agreed.Or you'll become a faggot and have to subject to Lucky Star.
>>405399but spelling it "Kitten" is the punchline.
>>405375>>405376>>405377GHFJDSGFDH THANK YOU ANON~
>>405375>>405376>>405377FINALLY, COSPLAY DONE RIGHT. LEARN A LESSON FROM THIS, AMERICAN FATTIES
>>405375Sauce on those Kamina/Simon cosplay pics o_oYou will return a MUCH COOLER PERSOOON.
>>405253You will return GAR.
>>405562they're from cure.
>>405573Are there possible more/a scan source though?GARRRR
>>405573it's natsuoni on Cure. he's also a fuckwin Orange-kun. His website doesn't have all his photos, he keeps them on cure so you'd need a cure account to see them.
and this is the last good pic not reposted in the thread.(Cure No.453 ????)
>>405602Thank you XD>>405606Awww god that's an awesome Viral. I have a couple that I found on a cosplay site.
And now for something completely different?
>>405267I READ THAT AS 'COCKSLOCK'. DAMN YOU, FOURCHAN.
>>405602Could you possibly post his Orange-kun in /cgl/?>>405608Viral's boots scare the hell out of me. WHY do they do that???
>>405628For height usually, if they're too short to play the character. Personally when cosplaying I'd rather have closer looking shoes than platforms to gain a few inches, but to each his/her own I guess.
>>405636It's a photosession, the whole point is to copy the characters looks in detail. Those simply look terrible...
>>405639I thought the Yoko was really nice, the Simon's goggles suck but other than that he's good.. and if you ignore Viral's shows/pads he looks pretty sweet.
>>405653That's my point: the shoes ruined the whole cosplay. I know I'm probably bitching, but I really hate when they do that.
>>405655Yeah, I know, I don't like it either. My friend is going to cosplay as Dist (ToA) but wants to wear heels for height, I hope she doesn't go overboard XD
>>405612DELICIOUS!!WANT
How about you do the cosplay and STFU!
>>405670I second more Boota gijinka XD
>>405628later, don't have time at the moment. you can't save pics from cure, you have to screencap and save each one. lazy anon is lazy. I mean, busy.OP: what's the verdict?
So I just finished watching the first episode ( kinda got dragged around and tried to sleep during the Harry Potter movie ) and... I am intrigued.It was semi-epic in a silly kind of way. The mechs look a bit silly though being mostly a huge face but with them changing expressions reminds me of Voltron. I liked watching Voltron.
>>405923you'll reach ep3, and the word "silly" will never be able to apply to Gurren Lagann. Silly implies there is some breach of reason. there is no reason here. kick reason to the curb.
>>405265Oh my god I call it that too! I'M NOT ALONE.
>>405923I was actually surprised at how much the series changes over time. It always retains the WACKY OVER-THE-TOP HOTBLOOD SPIRIT, but it goes from boobs and guns to character interactions to even a bit of intrigue. Supposedly the series is composed of 8 episode arcs, each arc of which pays homage to mecha series of a different decade.
>>405942homage thing is just a rumor, its not *that* planned out. GL is an homage to supers as a whole.
>you'll reach ep3, and the word "silly" will never be able to apply to Gurren Lagann....And then you'll reach episode 4 and want to die of eye AIDS. Luckily, 5 redeems itself and it's all good from then on.
>>406104Ahh... episode 4 reminded me of a cheap flash cartoon or american done anime with the way their mouths moved. I feel dirty now.Off to watch episode 5 now.
>>406164Yeah, it was drawn by only one person, that's why the art is crappy. I almost stopped watching GL at that point, but didn't and it turned out to be so much worth it!
>>406169What was the reasoning of having it done by one person on that episode?
>>406174I... don't know. I think it was some famous artist who just had problems with the rest of the crew.
>>406169Drawn by one person? Uhh... no?They just changed directors like they've been doing since the beginning. Osamu Kobayashi did episode directing, animation directing and storyboarding for ep 4. He has this weird, intentionally "clumsy" style of drawing and storytelling. The average viewer might call him a talentless hack but he's actually respected in the industry.
>>406216Oh, sorry, I just read that off an anime blog, but I guess that's what the person really meant, she just said that Kobayashi did all the art, so I got confused.
thanks to the kind anons who posted those cosplay pics... my guess is that the second kamina cosplayer (the one with the hideous-loking sandals) is a girli know this is not /cgl, but since we're on topic, post MOAR gurren cosplay
BUMP FOR MANLY THREAD
>>406216I think his style would work better for either short episodes or just manga instead. It's not exactly that bad of a trainwreck to look at but it feels very choppy compared to the usual.
>>405608Delicious Viral hips are delicious.
>>405608Nice shoes there, Viral.
Posting in a relevant thread!
>>407189OMFG!!thankyou anon from the bottom of my heart.CAPSLOCKING FOR MOAR TIMESKIP VIRAL!!
>>407194YOU HAVE NO IDEA HOW HARD I'VE BEEN LURKING JP VIRAL SITES FOR DELICIOUS TIMESKIP. THIS IS THE FIRST ART I'VE SEEN, BUT I THOUGHT IT WAS TOO SMALL AND AMBIGIOUS TO WARRENT ITS OWN THREAD.How lustily I look forward to the days when there will be thread after thread of Future Viral.
>>407189FINALY SOME TIMESKIP VIRAL FANART. AND WITH ADIANE TOO? THAT IS FAR TOO AWESOME. CAPSLOCK!Oh, sauce?
>>407203http://ifif.genin.jp/And now that I look back at her site, OH GOD SHE FOUND OUR ADIANE/VIRAL THREAD ON IICHAN.I can't read an inch of moonspeak, so I hope she isn't pissed.
This is now a timeskip Viral thread.Also, OH GOD HE IS HOT.
>>407218FUCKWHERENAOW
>>407218OH GOD OH GOD
>>407230http://panic.in/daikoku/gren.htmlI can't find any more asklkjnfalk D:But really, do you need anymore when you've already got THAT? FUCK that is hot.
>>407239OH GOD, that is on the list of sites I lurk! Yet I didn't see it!!! I WILL KEEP A SHARP EYE FROM NOW ON, I GUARANTEE IT.
>>407239lawdy, thanx
Durp?
>>407669YESSSSSSSS
So I just finished watching Gurren Lagann... and I still don't understand what's the craze about. I guess super-mecha just isn't my cup of tea.Maybe if Nia had some horrible painful mutilating agonizing death I would like it more because she ruined Simon just about when he was going to be cool.Someone explain why the love for Viral! And why there isn't much Rossiu love.
