Interesting, if not exactly exciting. It’s Eureka Seven meets King Gainer which probably suggests the most Tomino influence in Gundam for some time. I have my doubts, especially since King Gainer was a complete miss for me. Well, other than the opening.

Flashpoint Paradox Trailer
I’m glad they’re finally doing a Flash storyline for one of these animated movies, even if it’s the one that gave us the confusing New 52 status quo (seriously, how was Damian Wayne ten if Bruce Wayne has only been Batman for six years?). Kevin Conroy is Batman (just, uh… not the one in this trailer), Dana Delany is Lois Lane, Nathan Fillion is Hal Jordan, and Tim Daly’s son Sam is Superman (you’ll understand when you see). Oooh, and Ron Perlman is Slade/Deathstroke! Cary Elwes is Aquaman! Oh, and Cyborg’s in it (who gives a fuck about Cyborg?).

Dragon Ball Z: Battle of the Gods Clip
Wow, that looks, moves, and sounds fucking gorgeous. Guaranteed purchase from me when we get it over here. Unf. The only problem I have is that there’s a weird glare, an over saturation of color, I think. It can be a little overwhelming.
I wonder how Kaio got a new planet? This one seems bigger than the previous one. I know that in the notes for the movie, Toriyama said it was Birusu who made Kaio’s previous planet small to begin with because he destroyed most of it and Kaio had to reconstruct it. Now Kaio has a bigger planet and Birusu appears and wrecks it again? What a bad guest.
