Armor Hunter Mellowlink - Castle Fight (1080p) 

Metal gear boss fights : The anime

And VA of Mellowlink is VA of Solid Snake.

Dude went to storm trooper academy apparently

​@ShardDeVir what fr??

@@ShardDeVirNo, that’s another character.

That was one of the things that really surprised me, the attention to detail is crazy, you'll find these details in more of Takahashi's work.

That's VOTOMS in general.

actually has to reload, cleary shows a set of camera lenses the AT uses to see, reduced vision arc inside the AT so less situation awareness than an infantrymen. Might have to dig out and give it a watch

@@rokinz3270 It's also literally powered by explodium and while the protection of its armor is extremely inconsistent, it's generally somewhere between "very poor" and "almost comedic".

@@thefez-cat >powered by explodium High-energy fuel/hydraulic fluid goes both ways, I guess. Look at IRL hydrazine fuel or pentaborane

Oh don’t worry he doesn’t last too long

@@animatrix1490 :(

The mind sometimes bears blindspots In layman's terms, we all have Achilles heel and that which is glaring gets the most attention If you are dominant with your left hand in a world of predominantly right handed men, it will be said of you that you're of brand. Wrestle with your right arm Essentially every facet of you is tempered with God given gifts, but the world wants to capitalize on whatever weak points you bear. Punishing the 'imperfection'

You watch too much fucking anime

That's when he powers up, it's Mellowlink's second form 😆

Considering the times he does it the left part of his face should be a bloody ruin by now

It's his signature move.

Prevalent?

I mean, this isn't just an exceptional pilot but a Scopedog being *unusually* sturdy. They usually blow up if you sneeze too hard next to them.

Except drones are starting to seriously challenge the AT concept...

Dracula: stop destroying my house. Just go away

Was that Mellowlink's castle?

Polymer ringer Solution I think? same thing the mechs use for they're Muscle Cylinders. aka EXPLODIUM

@@heymay724yes. Inspired by a hydraulic fluid used during the Vietnam war, dubbed ‘cherry juice’. It was a great working fluid but insanely flammable. I know it was used in helicopters and I think it was also used in M113 APCs.

Vodka 😂😂

i thought it was nitroglycerin or napalm but i guess its mech fuel

I agree. I like that he appears scared, tense and that his plans don't always work and he has to improvise something. An absurd level of plot armour sometimes but that's the nature of the premise, I guess.

No you hit the vibe pretty well. 1980s and some 90s Anime was pretty much peak Anime imho.

that "wine" filled with Polymer Ringer - the AT's energy fuel, millions stronger than gasoline

RIIIIIIIIIIIIIIINK!!!

I think technically that's actually Mellowlink's castle. The owner said he could have it and she had to know what he'd do with it.

Thank you for watching! I feel there was a lack of Mellowlink content on YT, i wanted more people to see it. It is a seriously overlooked series, Ryosuke Takashashi is a genius imo. (I may upload more scenes)

@@EpicBlargman Hell, I hadn't even heard of this series before this was recommended to me. I'm gonna have to find it and binge it now.

Armor Hunter Mellowlink is a spinoff from VOTOMS

And Heavy Gear is a ripoff from VOTOMS

This series is set in the VOTOMs universe. That is a slightly customized Scopedog.

Man if this guy only had some grapeshot or flechette rounds. Or even heat or hesh where the shrapnel would catch mellowlink....

I was told just recently the masters being destroyed in a fire was a rumor a long time ago. Lo and behold in 2021 the masters were found in sunrise studios archive, (the video your seeing here is ripped from the perfect soldier bluray in japan only)

@@EpicBlargman hallelujah, that's damn good news

@@spazmonkey2131 Indeed, i forgot to mention this comes from the Perfect Soldier Bluray Boxset, it was a limited thing that came in a suitcase and now it costs upwards of $500 to $700, it includes all votoms content in 1080p except for shining heresy.

That's correct, the masters were found and bundled with the VOTOMS bluray.

@@EpicBlargman That's great! Hope it gets a Blu-ray release outside of Japan (the collection released in region A has everything except Mellowlink)

​@EpicBlargman i thought everyone said the masters for Mellowlink and Shining Heresy got destroyed in a fire or something like that lol. This is great news

​@@yummycookies58Strangely no explanation was given on how the Mellowlink masters were acquired. As for Shining Heresy the studio is still looking for the original master film reel, worst case scenario that one may be lost or destroyed so it'll be stuck at DVD 480p quality.

once an episode :)

Polymer Ringer Solution's hella energetic. It what makes VOTOMS be as fast as they are, but also gives them the death trap factor (if it leaks and ignites - and it ignites easily - the mech is as good as dead, if it doesn't have automated fire suppression)

@@caav56 Specifically- it CAN'T have fire suppression because it catches and explodes too fast for it to be extinguished. By the time the system kicks on the mech will have already been a pile of slag.

@@Xaxp Spending Wolf (Scopedog prototype from Steel Force) had some sort of a fire suppression system, though.

@@caav56 I havent seen that yet. Interesting.

Now, if gundam could just use the same cool music..

U.c gundam anyway. And C.E

They're super legendary Japanese wine made by a master Japanese winemaker! Actually I'm not sure - maybe Mellowlink set it all up in advance and filled the bottles with liquid explosive. Or it could be super legendary Japanese wine.

They're filled with Polymer Ringer Solution - a highly energetic fuel/lubricant that allows Armored Troopers to be as fast as they are, but it's also hella flammable and explosive

@@caav56 thank you very much.

Cus he’s mellowlink bra

They're filled with the same crazy high-energy fuel/hydraulic fluid that Armored Troopers use.

It got an HD bluray remaster on the perfect soldier boxset in 2021, a limited available item in japan that comes in a suitcase. They were able to find the masters in their archive.

Wine bottle filled with Polymer Ringer Solution (super-fuel/hydraulic fluid, which's also hella flammable)

from what people said in other comments, they're filled with a special rocket fuel

PRS (Polymer Ringer Solution, same fuel/hydraulic fluid mechs use)-proof.

Mellowlink proof! It's the fuel explosive stuff that powers the mechs, so it's hellu powerful.

Votoms Universe

@@EpicBlargman OK, because it looks like an alternate Gundam time-line universe. By the way, I remember 2 video games on the SNES & Saturn Assault Suits Valken Cybernator, are they part of this series?!

@@FrankSan-vd3gu Nope, although I can understand why you think so. Probably got based off of Votoms, not to mention some audio sounds probably crossed over like the iconic skating sound you hear.

@@Goji1 Indeed! Those familiar skating sounds were the first thing I noticed and the round-headed mechs look like the Zion mechs from Gundam. And it would seem that the Assault Suits Valken & Leynos series on the SNES & Saturn are not related to Votoms, but are certainly inspired by it. Though there is a specific game on the SNES based on Votoms and uses Mode 7 graphics to pull off the effetcs.
