| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- A pretty solid action piece with a bit of comedy and doom near the end. Like everything in Short Peace, it would benefit from just a bit more content. |
| Not sure what I should think about that one, I started like a western comedic military movie and ended up being....I HAVE NO IDEA... That one was pretty disappointing, but not as bad as Gambo. Anyway, 2/5. |

| I saw this short today at the Downtown Independent, and I rather enjoyed it. Normally, CGI just looks plain bad in anime, but this movie actually looked really good with it. Though the ending was a bit weak, I'm a sucker for great animation so I give it 8/10. |

| Pretty solid ending with some good CG for the most part. The ending was great to me. |
| In 9/10 cases, the worst thing about an anime is its fandom. |
| really fells like MGS with Otsuka Akio (voice actor of snake MGS) i knowing this after watching trailer of Tsukigime Ranko and you should play tsukigime ranko(dumb game) if you like Short Peace anime |
 |
| My favorite out of the 4. my only issue with it is that the ending lacked impact. but overall, this was quite entertaining, the action was very fun to watch, and the whole military aspects of this movie gave it a sense of realism. too bad they went for the humor at the end... |
 |
| The backgroundshots where nice drawn, the cgi was sometimes quite nice, at least for anime ( so if you dont consider that there are whole movies like "Toy Story" or "Shrek" out there which look better (in terms of fluid animation) than this and are more than 10 years old you sure will find it nice looking) The faces look so freaking horrible, only because they wanted it to look similair to anime-.- The story is overflown with anime clichee shit, especially the ending is so freaking garbage, i couldnt even watch because of all the facepalms. |
| That GUNK is one tough piece of hardware, and look, there's a naked man threatening a fully armed robot with a warhead! LOL I finally understood the episode title when the GUNK went to civilian servant mode. XD This was my favorite episode among the four, uhmm five if the opening is counted because of the powered armor, freakin' laser beams, drones, missiles and rocket spam, combined arms tactics, etc. ♥_♥ 8/10 Overall the series/compilation was 7/10 for me. |
| You see there's no need to wonder where your god is, Coz he's right here! ...and he's fresh out of mercy. |
| This was great. Holy shit direction was 10/10 Great CG, the best by far of any other in the anthology. Actually some of the best CGI I have ever seen. The start was really strong. It felt like I was watching a hollywood film. It made great impact, and the music fitted perfectly. It was streched a bit more than it needed, especially towards the end but I can overlook that because, slow motion hollywood walk with backlight! Very enjoyable. Would definitely like to see more anime with this type and quality CG |

| mixing 3D and 2D again, damn only one of them survive that robot is like indestructible |
| I enjoyed it quite a bit, my main issue I think was the subs I had were pretty bad, a lot of the moment's that are supposed to feel chummy or humorous just don't come across in any of the sets of subtitles I've found. Also I'm not sure if it's any more clear in Japanese what their plan is. As far as I can tell they're a bomb disposal team, and they're going to clear out an underground bomb, but they give off a sense that they could die doing it. That feels kinda unclear at the start though, since all the flash backs don't have any real danger, just goofiness, yet they're acting that it was amazing they got out of there alive :/ Anyways, started goofy, ended goofy, and the action was pretty darn awesome, although at times I lost track of where people were at and wasn't really sure what they had in their toolkit (1 guy has an EMP grenade, that sounds pretty useful, the others don't?). The 3D looked pretty great during the action, but early on there were some rough animation cycles, especially slow walking. In general 7/10, not sure if some of the rough patches are a problem with the direction or the translation of the subs. Anyone found decent subs out there? (tried the one that came with WiKi, FLiCKSiCK, and another that's unlabeled, all pretty bad) |
| Final part! post apocalyptic research crew vs old neautrilization bot...its been done...but the last part with nude guy running at bot with nuke/missile head..>ROFL!! YES!!! End of Short PEace first was Intro, Tsukumo, then the one about the girl and boy, then the one about the bear, ten this sci fi one. Kinda thought so what with their time lengths iand all. All built up to naked missile man lol 8/10 |
| I hate that robot! It killed the captain! |
 |
| This was for sure the best one |
 |
| Yeah, this one was the best out of the bunch, but mostly since the other ones weren't that good. |
 "Your sight, my delight. Will you marry me?" |
| This sure was great! Really lovely action and in general an interesting setting and atmosphere. Out of the 4 definitely the best! |
 |
| Loved it. Nuff Said... |
 |
on 
| I see the best was saved for last. It also strengthens my belief that the others would have really benefitted from an extra 10 minutes each. |
 |
| Really liked the beginning, the snippets of their previous mission, the classic rock sounding track, the introduction to the whole cast of characters, it was really a solid introduction to this piece. After that, it was all pretty downhill from there. In fairness, the art-style was solid and the CGI was pretty good too, and being that I liked the opening track, it's the first time in Short Peace where I liked the OST at all. But personally, I found the action pretty boring and that was basically all there was. I also think it's kinda tonally off. In a way, I guess it fits a war styling that none of the deaths carried any kind of weight to them, outside of maybe Gimlet's, but it's also pretty emotionally barren because of that. But further more, the ending was a total clash of the events that just happened. We just witnessed the deaths of 90% of the cast, and it ends on a joke, with Marl's slow-mo naked run with a sappy song playing? Totally mood killer. I don't know, it contrast to everyone else I think this was probably the worst. Maybe because the extra time allotted to it and the strong introduction might I had generally higher expectations for it. I mean, at least Gambo's action has some brutality to it to make it a little more interesting. |
| This was good but not as great as Gambo! But I understood the message at the end. But that naked scene at the end by Male was pathetic. Those GUNKs were something else, tough as nails and really destructive. I guess in the end there is no need for senseless violence, just enjoy whatever peace you have no matter how it came about. Overall this was a good project and I will miss it a lot. 7/10. |

| This one was the best of the bunch by far, i sually hate 3d cg but it looks great in this one, the fights scenes against the tanks are pretty great too, some good choreography and camerawork there. |

| Like this one the most, but only a little tiny bit more. Also heard the metal pipe noise. |
  me candies:        |
| The ending was kinda weird but funny. But overall, it was surprisingly entertaining and the battle against this surprisingly resistant tank was fun. |
