Watched the first Episode of IBO, twas good. I like how blunt mika is. Eugene is a fun character. Just in general I'm liking most the characters so far, except Kudelia but I figure she just needs time to grow on me.

New IBO designs have been revealed. Barbatos Lupus Rex looks beastly (in a very good way). It makes sense for there to be parts of the Hashimal integrated into the new design, they did have the "corpse" at their disposal. It also looks like we'll have another giant Graze to battle, but this one looks leaps and bounds above the other.

Man that 2nd one is really giving me Orbital Frame vibes.

Blech, Rex looks awful. The Lupus was so much nicer. Maybe I'll be won over by the animation, but it looks like just too much. Especially the Hashmal tail looks dumb just sorta stuck on for no reason. The proportions are so off now. Giant limbs, tiny torso.

The Graze is okay.

Ah, I love it when the reasons other people dislike something is exactly why I like it.

No, really, I do. Man, there really needs to be a sarcasm font... I suggest this. ...Wait.

Vidar? loljk

Now that I'm seeing it colored, it gives me Reborns Gundam vibes.

Vidar only uses one sword.:p

Who do we know who uses two swords and loves blue?:p

If it makes you feel better, I only hate it as an evolution of the Lupus, which was everything this design is only better. As a standalone design I think it's just fine and even kinda cool really.

It's just hard to not look at it and see Lupus with a bunch of thrown-on parts. I will say, though, like the Lupus the model kits look far superior to the line art.

I seriously need to go watch IBO XD those designs look awesome
