The footage is from Episode 4 of Kidousenshi Nonchan, a project single handedly animated by some entity known as Nosferatu. I used to have a link to the home site, but I seem to have lost it. =/

You should watch through eps 1-8 on Youtube, as it is an undeniably awesome experience. The animation improves drastically with each installment, and later on it seems to even surpass conventional anime. And the story is unusually dark and touching for something that looks so damn weird. This is my favorite Ep. (Which is not part of the 1-8 sequence. I have a hard time finding all the side material since none of it is translated.)

What happens when you ask Neil Patrick Harris to guest-star on "Batman: The Brave and the Bold" and give him permission to sing? This happens.

Re: Random Mecha/Anime Video Thread: Round 5

I don't usually go for vs videos... but this guy is pretty good. You can't help background and shot colors all the time, but he's pretty good about timing a good number of clips from across the series. Some get repeated more than they should, but he's pretty good. What's even better is how he reverses direction/inverts the scene to fit the flow better. Much, much better feel.

Pluses: Good music, good choreography for cut scenes you've seen a hundred times, and even something approaching a plot. A good continum: six episodes per 'season', recently begun his 3rd season.

Minuses: Repeats a few stock footages ad nauseum. Is clearly a fanboy for a few characters (but not oppressively so). Much in season 3, now that more series (and stock footage) has been opened up.

First season is basically 'Seed and Celestial Being vs. Innovators and Ali'

Conquest for Peace Season 1 Episode 1

Second season is 'Survivors continue to fight: Ghost of Rau runs rampant on battlefield' (Bring Stabity survives!)

Conquest for Peace Season 2 Episode 2

Only one episode of Season 3, but Mr. Bushido... is leading an attack on the Wing-boys earth?

Conquest for Peace Season 3

Art imitating art.

It's well known that The Matrix borrowed heavily from Ghost In The Shell for it's visuals and the Metal Gear Solid franchise did the same and vice versa.

And hence, the United States needs worry not for the defense of Taiwan from the People's Republic.

They can handle it themselves.

Mixing Gundam with cutesy magical girl shows is always amusing.

Well… having some experience in heresy, I would say that your statement is not nearly controversial enough to illicit cries of outrage by the mecha anime community, against you. If you had said something like Doozy Bots being better than the original Gundam, then we would have tied you to a stake and burned you for your transgressions.
