Super Robot Wars

Three new limited series have been annouced for Super Robot Wars X-Ω, and this time they're a lot more Moe then usual. The series' are Robot Girls Z, Hacka Doll, and Sun Musume ~ Girl's Battle Bootlog, the last of which is a novel series so obscure that google searching it will only get you random nonsense that has nothing to do with it. Honestly if this received backlash I wouldn't be surprised.

Oh yeah, and Panzer World Galient is in as a permanent addition.

Soo... I dont know if this was posted before but I found this video which is about a little fanmade animation of Gundam Iron Blooded Orphans in SRW.

The animations look kind of stiff but its still pretty cool.

Also, does anyone here have any Fix-Fic ideas if Iron Blooded Orphans were to show up in SRW?

Just watched the video of Robot Girls Z arc in Super Robot Wars X-Ω, and it's hilarious. It seem that Baron Ashura get rid of our heroes by desplaced them with their counterparts from reality without their robot. So Kouji and friends are replaced by the robot girls and Machi from Sun Musume (technically Layzner girl).

Then Ashura learn that these girls are much worse. Then Ashura got replaced too, with the mechnical beast girls commanding their robot counterparts.

Aaaand... even more insanity. X-Omega now crosses over with The Idolmaster Cinderella Girls. How this stacks with other series that debuted there is another matter.

...At this rate, eventually they will Girls und Panzer.

I really dont know what to comment anymore in regards to the "Anything Goes"-logic of X-Omega.

One thing, it's unfortunately that Machi's Sun Drive is Layzner and not Gundam. Else we will get the full Moe Anthropomorphism team of the original SRW. (although there's another character in Sun Musume who use Impulse Gundam).

One funny detail is that Robot Girls' tendency to be Destructive Saviour is exploited. They pick a fight near a game shop, and Gre-chan actually stop Z-chan's attack with Thunder Break.

So, of the series that debuted in X-Omega, which ones do you want to see on a regular SRW?

The only one that comes to mind for me would be Kyoryu Sentai Zyuranger, if just because it would be really cool to see Tokusatsu series in a normal SRW game.

Zegapain and Star Driver would be pretty cool. I would also like see Albegas show up in a mainline Super Robot Wars game, though I would prefer if it showed up with both GoLion and Dairugger XV so that we could finally have a Super Robot Wars game with the "Voltron Holy Trinity".

Pacific Rim needs to join the SRW scene.

Man, playing Alpha 3 has made me realize how downright evil some of the bosses are, like the protodevilim

Second to Zyuranger, it's Armor Hunter Mellowlink. At the end of OVA Mellowlink finally abandon the anti-AT rifle, in SRW he's likely just decide to pilot AT again after his story end. And it would be cool if they get Okawara to design a custom Scopedog for him.

Well this is interesting. For it's second anniversary, Super Robot Wars X-Ω seems to be getting updated super moves and a more traditional Tactical RPG mode.

Three new characters have been announced for X-Omega: Kusuha Mizuha, Kyosuke Nanbu, and Excellen Browning. The latter two will pilot their typical mechs the Alt Eisen Riese and the Rein Weiss Ritter, while the former pilots a Grungust Type-2.

.... Who's gonna voice Excellen now that her old VA is dead?

They're gonna do what they did for Ple in SRW V and reuse the lines her old VA recorded.

I've said it before, but Senki Zesshou Symphogear needs to appear in some form in this franchise.

That, and maybe Digimon Xros Wars.

Pacific Rim and its sequel, as well as Megas XLR, also need more SRW love.

If there's any western mecha that's going to make it into Super Robot Wars it is most likely going to be Pacific Rim. Quite a few big names in the mecha genre have given that film high praise.

Yeah, but the rights to it must be incredibly difficult to get on board with Banpresto.

Granted, there’s a few shows I would love to see get a round with SRW’s scriptwriters, I just know how these rights issues are.

Honestly I think there are enough US franchises to make a Super Robot Wars USA with all-US franchises. Between things like EXO Squad, Battletech/Mechwarrior, Pacific Rim, and Megas, among others, it's not like there's a shortage of franchises.

Would be a pain to get some of the licenses though.

It’s the licenses that would be the issue. Story wise I’m all for every last member of Legendary Defender getting Bright slapped (Voltron’s rights are a hodgepodge at this point), Coop and Ryoma Nagare trying to out crazy each other (Cartoon Network last I checked marked the show as a tax write off) or giving Sym-Bionic Titan some actual closure (same tax write off issue).

I know that the "WTF!?"-series that showed up in X-Omega are old news but...

There was a new series that I did not even knew it had robots, and that series is... Little Witch Academia
