/m/ - Mecha

I fucking love this picture

/m/, solve this fucking mystery for a newfag like me:

Who's the real father of Getter, Go Nagai or Ken Ishikawa ?

I don't really know.

I read the manga that go untile the army of the 100 oni, and the first ones had a Nagai' art, while from the end of the Hachu arc till the rest it was the horrible Ken "everything is fucking round" Ishikawa.

>>4722049
Ishikawa. Go Nagai's only involvement in Getter was suggesting combining jets to Ishikawa.

>>4722049
I think Nagai came up with the idea for the mech, but I noticed that the idea behind the Getter Rays is very similar to Nagai's God backstory from Mao Dante.
>the horrible Ken "everything is fucking round" Ishikawa.
what the hell are you talking about? Ishikawa always did the artwork for Getter, and he's a very good artist with a unique style.

>>4722049
Both, Go Nagai inspires Ishikawa the concept.

lol

I'm Batman.

gotr one

>>4722111
Beautiful.

gotr too

gotr 3

goddamn why is ryoma talking to piccolo and what are they saying

Getter Gloves. The crazier you are, the better they work.

>>4722145
so you can potentially use them to dip your hands in lava

>>4722049

No clue. /m/ argues on the top of it's lungs that Go Nagai only played a minor role, suggesting that the three mechs combine, and that was it, Ken did all the work. On the other hand credits for all translated Getter Robo shows, and ANN, always list Go Nagai as a co-creator.

I suspect the truth is somewhere down the middle, but I don't know for sure as I don't understand Japanese, so I can't check Japanese wikis or anything like that.

>>4722145

"Dudes, we gotta freakin' have those gloves!"

what

>>4722150

Oh god, you are now imagining Mickey, Donald and Goofy as Getter pilots.

"C'mon, fellers! Let's gattai, huh-huh!"

the hell

>>4722174
haha I would so watch that

>>4722175

Well, he did make freaking dynamite when he was sent back to feudal japan times.

>>4722182
I mean the way they're drawn

isn't that the style of one of those anime shows that is insanely popular in Japan but nobody in the west has ever heard of it?

>>4722049
Ken Ishikawa.

He had an idea for a manga involving cars that could combine. And there were going to be three separate robot heroes.

While he had trouble designing the combination, Go Nagai walks in and suggests that they should have three jets to forms three different forms. This is explained in Getter Robo Saga Getter Robo Go.

Ishikawa did all of the art and story for all of the Getter Robo manga.

Getter is for babies

>>4722358
>He had an idea for a manga involving cars that could combine
wasn't the jet scrander also originally a car?

>>4722395 wasn't the jet scrander also originally a car?

No.

>>4722416
but I'm pretty sure there was some "making of mazinger z" manga that nagai made where he explained how his original idea for the Mazinger was that it was controlled using a car.

>>4722395
Don't think so, but I read somewhere that there was an early design with the pilder as a motorcycle that got scrapped and used later as Energer Z.

>>4722418
It was a bike, see Eneger Z.

He had the original idea while stuck in traffic and wishing he could stomp the shit out of everyone else.

>>4722395

I believe he planned for a motorcycle first.

>>4722426
>>4722420
I think it was car -> bike -> jet thing

someone post that page ;-;

>>4722418 Implying that Mazinger is controlled by Jet Scrander

Go Nagai came up with the idea for Mazinger in a traffic jam. Mazinger's pilder was originally going to be a motorcycle, but he felt that he didn't want to copy Kamen Rider's popularity by using a motorcycle.

>>4722429
>>4722434
see
>>4722432

I dunno maybe I misunderstood that page

>>4722437 I dunno maybe I misunderstood that page

Yeah, you did. Horribly.

He drew a joke picture of Mazinger with a car head, but it was never an actual design.

>>4722445
wouldn't have been THAT far fetched though
