11:35 The character design constantly changes because the designer might not be the same going from show to show, but the mech designs are usually done by Kunio Okawara (the guy who designed the first Gundam).
The Takara Transformers team was also heavily involved. Hence why many of them resemble transformers, not to mention some actually being based on Transformers designs.
I wasn't expecting to see someone react to my Brave playlist. lol If you want to see more Brave, I have a second playlist that has all of the transformation sequences from each show.
DAMN... You're the only one that i've seen that reacting to the Gaogaigar opening in youtube, which is one of my ALL TIME favorite mecha anime. This is AWESOME
Yeah, this is the same studio (Sunrise) that made Gundam. If Gundam is Sunrise's Real- Robot franchise then Brave is their Super-Robot franchise. Also, a good number of the robots are created by humans so their stories are very intertwined, unlike in Transformers when you can basically ditch the human side.
19:11 Yes and no, We Are! is done by Hiroshi Kitadani, this is Masaaki Endoh, aka the one of the singers of JAM Project. However, Kitadani is also one of the singers of JAM Project. If you're unfamiliar with JAM Project, they did the iconic One Punch Man opening.
19:08 not the same guy but he's in the same band with Kitadani Hiroshi (the one sing WE ARE of One Piece). The band name is JAM PROJECT (This band play the ONE PUNCH MAN OP) If you watch Dragon Ball then there's a man in this group sing CHA LA HEAD CHA LA (Kagayema Hironobu) And an old member was Rica Matsumoto used to sing Pokemon opening You should check out more of this band's songs
11:25 Look wise some robots look the same because they are based on transformer's designs to save money and time. They even repainted the toys and made them into new characters.
"Is this Japanese Transformers" Ma dude, the Transformers robots themselves are designed by Japanese folks (Takara) as toys (Diaclone) which then Hasbro brought to America, created a different story around them, and called them Transformers.
13:49 By the way, if you liked these shows and like mechs in general, check out Super Robot Wars if you haven't already. You might have to import/pirate it for the English version, but Super Robot Wars X has Mightgaine, Gurren Lagann, Code Geass, a few Gundams, and a bunch of other mecha shows in it as part of the cast list. -you can save Nia btw-
GaoGaiGar, aside from quite likely being one inspiration for Gurren Lagann, I can only describe as having a lot of little things that scratch my brain aside from being generally awesome!
You should take a look at the openings for the video games that are a part of this series as well! Brave saga Brave saga 2 And new century brave wars They all have fully animated openings and are parts of the brave series
So the story around how the brave series was made is cause the the company that was making the Transformers toys had a falling out with the studio that was making the Transformers anime, Toei Animation. So Takara struck a deal with a new animation studio, Sunrise, to launch a brand new series using left over designs that were meant for followup Transformers series.
Also Takara were really shitty to Sunrise throughout the whole situation, that Sunrise made the ultimate villain of one of the Brave shows a stand in for Takara.
so, history lesson: transformers started a life as several different japanese toylines, which were brought together in the west as qhat we know today as transformers g1. now during the 90s transformers weren't selling very well in jp, and so takara decided to make a new series of transforming super robots; the brave series
6:46 Fun fact: The protagonist, Senpuuji Maito, is voiced by Nobuyuki Hiyama. Maito was one of his earliest roles, and he would later go on to voice the protagonist of GaoGaiGar as well. If you don't know who Hiyama is, you might know him as the guy who did Adult Link's voice in Ocarina of Time.
The Brave Command Dagwon there are chosen teenager by Brave alien to become Robot Team it kinda henshin to human size and transfer to medium size robot and finally gattai (Tranformation) to Big Robot
Yeah but I feel like Japan does the human characters really well and make you like and care for them, were as America does not but they still try to make you care
@@Runack09 I wouldn't call that universal. Out of the more than 20 Japanese Godzilla films there are four or five that actually have decent human plots.
Gaogaigar is the best of Brave series and also the last of them too. So they put everything to it ang go beyond but if you start this series with GGG you may not not enjoy all the rest.
@@ASMRPongpoom Brave is weird when it comes to copyright stuff. My other playlist has all of the transformation footage. A bunch were missing, so I had to upload them myself. Turns out the stock footage from certain episodes gets hit, while others don't. It's very strange.
