buncha stills from my watch of Space Runaway Ideon. i've been sharing these on twitter before but it's nice to collect a load together.

really struck by how vibrant the colours are in all of it, and how nice the hand-drawn special effects and fight backgrounds are; some of it looks like spltters of paint, which feels really dynamic in motion.

shame i've struggled to find an HD copy of it lol.

The ACKS 1/450 scale Space Runaway Ideon from Aoshima is a dream come true for me. I really like this line, and this is their best kit yet. I've wanted a good Ideon for at least 5 years now, and I finally have it! They replicate so many of the iconic gimmicks of the design (the crotch guns actually flip out!) and they are very easy to swap out. This begs to be put on a shelf to loom over you.

I’ve been browsing through Ideon merch on Mandarake lately, & I’m starting to wonder if Kitty Kitten was planned to have a bigger role in Ideon?

I mean, obviously, Tomino's a big fan of "girl with as minimal screentime as possible haunts the male protagonist" *gestures at Lalah & Four* & yet... IMO Kitty's character feels more grounded and ordinary than them? And while it's sorta a tragic fling like Kamille/For was, I feel like Ideon's animation and official art portrays Cosmo and Kitty in a more intimate light - they pose as if they've been fighting side-by-side for some time, or as if they're dating, not as if they've like, JUST met eachother in the middle of a humanitarian crisis lol

maybe this is just. a long-winded way of saying this official art is making me wish she'd had more screentime tho LOL

Giant Robots (And the space war)

From Adria, Green Lodge

Japan has really got it made. For years now (definitely since the late 70s, but with roots before that) they’ve been making animated TV shows featuring giant robots and surprisingly clever writing. They prove the ever-contested rule that animation isn’t just a kids’ medium.

Are these shows for children? The merchandising says yes (and if you’re familiar with Transformers, you’re familiar with several of these properties). On the other hand, unlike Transformers, whose appeal seems to lie in what people wish the story was like, Japanese TV producers don’t seem to mind getting a little grown-up about their stories. Mobile Suit Gundam is literally World War 2 in space, with an invading space nation attacking Earth and driving a surviving crew of pseudo-Allied soldiers (and civilians) around the world. It’s a war story, with the expected level of angst and an interesting focus on environmental destruction. All the same, it’s full of giant robots, too. Sometimes they’re a bit goofy, but in some of the shows in the series, they feel about as real and well-used as tanks or fighter jets. Giant Gorg is another such show: made by many of the same artists, it takes a very different approach. It’s a show-in-a-bottle, with a child protagonist, and a much more cartoony conflict between a corporate military and the titular Gorg. Still, the TV networks here would have a hard time understanding its draw. The plot has almost the feel of a seventies sci-fi novel, except the lead is far more innocent. There’s no major focus on “saving the girl”, and no need to utterly destroy the alien antagonist. The alien’s motives are reasonable, and the only real enemy is the greedy corporation. You can't sell toys when you're the bad guy. Macross is another war show, but with a fun twist: the invading aliens are so regimented that they have forgotten cultural elements like music. Like Gundam, this show has a strong focus on its mechanical illustration (although perhaps a lower art budget). Transformers fans will find some familiar jets here, as well, since the toy lines are related. The connoisseur of Japanese giant robots will find many, many other shows or films of varying levels of realism: Vifam, Madox, Ideon. Not a lot of these shows have releases in the US, but you can read about them in magazines or sometimes online. You can also acquire tapes from the right sources, although they might be unsubtitled. Shows like this prove the argument that animation isn’t just an adult medium, but one that can provide grounds for artistic and creative expression that just don’t seem to happen in life-action movies (no offense to Robot Jox, which is fun if you like stop-motion). We’d like to see a live-action Macross or Gundam, but we’re not sure anyone would be up to that!
