Posted 4 Nov 2014 Its a good idea. Whatever your feelings of Attack on Titan, its very popular, and if enough marvel fans check it out, and enough SNK fans check out some marvel stuff, it'll be pretty fantastic cross promotion Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted 4 Nov 2014 Not the first time Marvel did stuff with Japan. Heroman is actually a Marvel Superhero, created by Stan Lee himself Eka likes this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted 4 Nov 2014 There's an even earlier example. This is the Sentai series Battle fever J, which was originally meant to be a sort of adaption of the avengers concept but as a Sentai team. It didn't end up exactly like it was supposed to but it is considered to be in the Marvel multiverse. It even has a numbered designation Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted 4 Nov 2014 Its too bad Heroman's anime never got approved for a US release. It was a fun one. :c At least the manga made it over. Shigeto Koyama (mech designer for Eureka seveN, Heroman, Gunbuster 2 etc.) also stated recently that he'll be credited for help with Baymax's design in Disney's upcoming Big Hero 6 movie, which I thought was pretty rad. pheonix561 likes this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted 5 Nov 2014 I am now watching Rage of Bahamut. It's pretty good. I sure hope they don't puppy this up somehow. Lord knows studios find ways to ruin a good thing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Now if they can just work the giant robot into the AoT crossover somehow... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted 9 Nov 2014 Rage of Bahamut has a great opening btw. The show is just far better than it has any right to be. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted 15 Nov 2014 I haven't been keeping up with anime at all lately, but my friend showed me an episode and a half of Bahamut yesterday, and it was pretty rad. "Look at my eyes! Are these the eyes of a liar?!" (basically how I envisioned t1g before pics) And yeah, I'm just going to stream it. I'm past caring about quality. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
