Armored trooper votoms

And the protagonist isn’t some random ass teenager too. Already a plus.

I dont think this is the 80s version. I remember about 20 years ago catching on some cable channel parts of a series that had CGI like this, which wasn't really a thing in the early 80s too much. Edit - Looking through the comments sparked a memory. It was one of the Red Shoulder ones.

What is the name of this series? I read that a few were released around the 2010's, but I'm curious where this scene is from.

@@everythingsgonnabealright8888 He's 18 at the start of the show.

He does have humanity. Chirico throughtout the series is always in conflict thus why he has a stoic expression. He had to deal with being double crossed, wanting answers and those answers leading to more questions and more of his past he isn’t happy with. Personally from a character standpoint especially in the last red shoulder we see pretty much all of the red shoulders have some sort of empty expression.

@@maysen51 I do like Chirico. He's very complex that way.

Well now you close to 60 happy previous birthdays and hope yer still hanging with us.

Go watch Shining Heresy, that'll answer your question.

And have never heard of point defenses. Seriously, if you can dodge the missile, you can damn well have a guy in the back use an autocannon to shoot it down.

ATs are literally disposable, they don’t care how many men die

Also it seems like they tried but it didn't work out well.

@@DaSpineLessFish Weak excuse for a horribly done battle scene. Flashy and cool looking sure. However they get a 1/10 for their depiction of tactics in combat. Absolutely no way any army would conduct an operation that random and sloppy. Even Soviet human wave attacks were done in a structured way. I have seen plenty of animes where they took the time to showcase tactical thinking and movement in combat. If the creators don't care about that I suppose that's fine as it's their show. However or anyone who knows anything about military tactics will cringe once or ten times while watching this battle segment lol.

@@jedimindtrix2142 ngl i dont really care nigga

you were not around for the days of vhs where you?

@@bryanwells2890 In fact, I WAS there to see VHS come on line along with Sony Betamax! And NEVER have I come across ANY dubbed version of ANY of the "Armored Trooper Votoms" series! And THAT'S the point I'm stating.

@@fredhercmaricaubang1883 really i owned the whole series look it up on google or ebay and i guess you never heard of sunrise who was the ones that dubbed it on vhs

I think you mean the ending of the original series where both of them enter cyro stasis and agree to be flung to space so nobody will find them. Watch VOTOMS Shining Heresy to find out what happens after that.

Alone Again

Armored Troopers votoms Alone agian 2011

Start it with original Armored Trooper Votoms, then watch The Shining Heresy. After that watch the renewal prequels Pailsen Files and lastly "Alone Again". Finally watch all the 2000s series sequels to Votoms.

@the nerd shack Gundam is fucking trash lmao

its Votoms. it even says it in the title.

Grunts v grunts maybe. But say like vs amuro? It would be one sided.

Eh, Chirico was part of the Red Shoulder Corps, which have spectacular luck on the battlefield. Also, he is a war veteran who is something of a god in a Berlgery Dog (sp?).

Votoms was around way before Gundam Wing, though not before the original Gundam.

Chirico being indestructible is actually a major plot point throughout the series.

Gundam wing syndrome? Votoms was more than a decade earlier than gundam wing. And a Gundam is a thousand times better in terms of armor compared to a scopedog. If anything Chirico in votoms uses ordinary grunt suits that is actually more volatile than a leo. Gundam wing survivablity is much higher than a scopedog since it is a super mech in in it's own universe. Also if the main character dies in his own series then that ends the story, they're supposed to have plot armor. This isn't game of thrones where there are multiple characters with their own storylines.

We're not for sure that Deus Ex allowed Chirico to survive as it reveal that he is a demigod and humans his playthings. Fiona joins Chirico in heaven where they will wait for the day to arrive when humanity need the gods, to avoid the humans exploit him or Fiona for their own intention. The scopedogs have lighting shaped antennas and Chirico is seen as an emperor of war with a ceasar crown.

the "guys" are piloting the Mechs.

It's a mecha!

Only grey hair girl is cyborg.

Late answer, but mecha in Votoms does have tracks in their feet. Because this is a fictional universe, why those mecha move like human is because the new type of fuel. The building in this universe are also made with those mecha to fit in in mind. Not so much with actual tanks.

@@ElliFong And the fact that should the tracks/hover mode get taken out, you still have mobility than relying on just one form of movement. A tank that has a broken track is pretty immobile.

Well... 1. Because mech with legs is cooler, screw practicality 2. Primarily the VOTOMs do have wheels/treads on their feet to move around in quicker speeds, but they are limited to mostly flat or more even places 3. Gives them more tactical flexibility in addition to their "single pilot APC" unit status

@@jimmeier547 And a VOTOMS that has a leg taken out is also immobile, what's your point?

@@NXTangl Same goes for a tank with damaged tracks. Nowadays it’s known that legs are actually the way to go with robots: as the other guy commented, tracks are good/cheap but limited to more even places, while legs give you the possibility to move through more diverse terrain and provide more mobility as a whole (plus humanoid robots look cooler).
