I love how people actually criticize it for being inefficient. An anime, being criticized for inefficiency?! This really is the best Mecha sequence out there, and the fact that others started comparing it to reality proves it.
@@beworgen Made this comment a long time ago, and while I now realize that there are many other awesome mecha sequences out there, such as Super Galaxy Gurren Lagann, this one still holds the number one for me. Sorry, but your opinion is just that: a preference.
I love how BIG those thing is, and its still smaller than the things it has to fight, like this thing is taller than the psycho gundam, but its dwarfed by its foes
Actually, because I have OCD, I timed it to compare it to other transformation sequences. It requires the same efficiency and time as GaoGaiGar, OG Voltron and the Megazord. Ironically, Vehicle Voltron was faster than all of the above.
I'm good with a well-timed Power Rangers Zeo theme followed by the original Power Rangers theme (Opening rift MANDATORY!!) to round it out. Now THAT would be epic, especially if it segways to the actual battle after the transformation. :D
It's been 7 episodes so far and tbh I'm feeling a bit scared for this show. I hope things develop in the story because if it diesn't I'm gonna feel real disappointed. But even so....those mech battles still look awesome.
People may argue about how inefficient it is, But what's worse: launching a small craft from earth to join other parts in space using small amounts of fuel. or using a ton of fuel to launch several tons worth of mecha from earth into space? Also why land the whole mech when you just land a small craft?
Honestly, the part that strikes me as ridiculously inefficient is the torso. It consists of three parts: Main torso assembly, left arm, and right arm. The arms are attached to the main assembly during the docking procedure, due to the mecha's modular design. That's not the inefficient part. What's inefficient is that this happens _while the torso is being launched through the docking railgun_ (or whatever they're using there). Not only is the torso assembly being propelled by the railgun, not only are the mecha's arms being propelled by the railgun, but *the entire assembly line is being propelled by the railgun* . Just look at how the mecha's arms are attached: A pair of robotic arms position them to dock with the main torso, _while the entire thing is being propelled along at high speeds_ . I know it's meant to look cool, and it does. But it's just a little touch that puts the "ridiculous" in "ridiculously awesome", and... honestly, it makes the entire thing that much better for it. xD It's so silly that it loops around to badass.
Um, why not just leave the whole dang robot in space and just launch the Cockpit to join the rest then? Or even better................. JUST STATION THE PILOT on the space station that holds it!?
Don't know about efficiency, but it is very time consuming. If the enemy was at your door, the entire process would be interrupted by missiles, beams, and a giant bottle cork.
+AVClarke That is why it makes sense to keep as much of the robot in space as possible instead of re launching it all each time. Its also convenient that somehow each expansion ring manages to stay lined up despite them being on different orbits.
Once you put something in orbit it stays there. Aside from correcting from minor amounts of drag from the edges of the atmosphere it doesn't take extra energy to stay there.
Meanwhile: lightspeed rescue Megazord: am I joke to you? Like, they don't have electromagnetic connectors to connect it on the go, but need to have special sequence and docking procedure, as it would be in realistic scenario
Captain Earth was good, but I really wish they used the Earth Engine more than 4 times and that some of the villains got more than one episode to do anything. Really felt like a show that was intended for 2 seasons, what with the ending and that girl who appeared twice.
ignoring the inefficient/absurd the transformation is, iam not gonna lie, this probably the most "realest" mecha transformation/gattai ever very minimal magic science mumbo jumbo like getter and the like, everything you see here.... ignoring the budget, cost, tech, etc, it actually look possible to do it in our modern day standard
I start from the idea of never having seen this specific anime (but I have seen a lot of mecha because they are my passion) as an idea of mecha union it could be interesting if the parts to be joined were interchangeable according to the need, each space base with n different types of legs, torso and head according to the need ...
It doesn’t make a lick of sense…not just inefficient, but the chance of one bolt or ratchet arm being out of synch for just a millisecond, out of what appeared to be unit vital components being assembled at high speed, means that you’d have to have an acceptable error rate of whatever is damn closest to zero.
That is a lot of infrastructure for a single robot ... if this was a government-funded project I wouldn't begin to tell you how pissed off I would be if I found out this is where my taxes went
Great sequence, I love a good mecha transformation scene. But I have to ask. Wouldn't it just make sense to just keep the robot assembled and save time?
@@remliqa I remember friends raving about it like it was the greatest thing since sliced bread but I lost interest about half way through the 1st episode. Maybe I'll revisit it now that my interests have shifted.
one thing i never understood with this, why have the smaller robot be the core of the larger robot? was the smaller core robot ever used on it's own apart from the final fight?
I wouldn’t call it inefficient at all. Just think about an enemy taking out the structure that houses the completed mech. Another thing, if this was reality I’m sure it would go by much faster than we see.
That's pretty fucking ninja. However in the time that rigmarole took place I would have already fired my photon torpedoes and everybody is now dead. Battlefield practicality always wins over looking cool.
Captain Earth has heavy space and astronaut theme. Launching a smaller module on Earth than doing the combination is actually how thing like the ISS got made.
Nah. You can count on him to care and get shit done with passion and enthusiasm. You could never rely on the jaded cynical assholes that form the majority of the old folks and adults.
Its beautiful. Its just too bad that the show isn't very good, mainly because of Moco and I found the scenes where the villains capture the members of their species too creepy and unnerving for my liking. Especially with that dumb Yuri kiss scene with Moco when she reawakened Ai's memories which people can tell me is hot all they want but to me is just dumb Yuri tease bate there for fan service
Unfortunately, this giant machine only appears in the first and final episodes. The genre of this anime is robot anime, but there are only a few stories about robots playing an active role, and the main character is not very active. It is one of the unfortunate animes in Japan.
Physics aside, I think I out grown out of the mecha genre- tired of watching barely out of kinder garden kids piloting huge 'no budget in the world can accomodate this thing', it's parts and any infrastructure needed to use/ maintain it. If it could be made, that world is obviously at peace, therefore why build it?
"By your powers combined, I am Captain Earth!"
I love how people actually criticize it for being inefficient. An anime, being criticized for inefficiency?! This really is the best Mecha sequence out there, and the fact that others started comparing it to reality proves it.
Best? Debatable. I mean, there's GGG's fusion...
Exactly. Saying that this is somehow the most impressive transformation only shows how little mecha you've watched.
That's why it's a Super Robot. It has to be extra.

Its so inefficent that it is beautiful. (Sheds tears.)
Joon K AMEN BROTHER ! ( sheds tears of joy )
That is the beauty of mechas. Inefficient but dramatic and besutiful.
No need fof efficiency.
That's just a wast off coolness

My thoughts exactly!!!
Whatever others say! A sequence for mechs or any robot like this is pure delight for us who love mechas! 😊
i love how its not a 3d model its so rare these days
and its such a nice clean animation too
Gundams ain't 3d
Nameless Protagonist unicorn and it's brother mobile suits are 3D
They will have definitly used 3d animation but "drawn" over it later...like in old anime like gundam
Also sad to say this is the last mecha anime Bones has up to date.
Looks awesome. The smooth animation. The attention to details. The spot on aesthetics.
Then...a kid in just a T-shirt appears as the pilot.
Welcome to reality. Where kids pilots million dollar machines because older people don't want to risk dying.
very cool but on a side note: if I had a dollar for every time a 16 year old pilots a mecha I would be rich enough to build my own mehca
Well he got the mech for free XD bc his father pilot one XD and it the one that he is on XD
Well the anime "knights and magic" has a solution for you. Get killed by Truck-kun, reincarnate in giant robot world, and make your own from scratch:)
Not with Evangelion.
Those are 14 years old.....LOL
With its own ridiculously inefficient transformation sequence. But I would have additional female pilots for the arms and legs Voltron style!
FORM FEET AND LEGS, FORM ARMS AND BODY, AND I'LL FORM THE HEAD. GO CAPTAIN EARTH!!!
Isn't that from Voltron ?
Mashe Ash it is from voltron
this reference combination is really good
I read this in Keith’s voice.
@@mangonalds3414 The only acceptable way to read it XD
..Someone needs to edit this with the Final Fusion Music and I'm sold
Someone has though it doesn't really match up like some of the others.
EXACTLY WHAT WAS GOING THROUGH MY HEAD.
Where's the GGG music
I'm good with a well-timed Power Rangers Zeo theme followed by the original Power Rangers theme (Opening rift MANDATORY!!) to round it out. Now THAT would be epic, especially if it segways to the actual battle after the transformation. :D
VOLTRON THEME PLSS
One of the years most awesome Mecha-anime :-D Great Characters, badass mecha, and allround feelgood series :-)
Captain Planet, he's a hero.
gonna raise the budget up another zero
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂@@HighmageDerin
Oh the inefficiency! It's awsome!
Why mention efficiency?
The one word I could use to describe what I just saw is this AWWWEEEEEESSSOOOOMMMMMEEEE!!!!
......I'm real hype for this show.
It's been 7 episodes so far and tbh I'm feeling a bit scared for this show. I hope things
develop in the story because if it diesn't I'm gonna feel real disappointed. But even so....those mech battles still look awesome.

Why isn't he yelling?
He should be yelling at the top of his lungs!
It looks so cool, but so ridiculous, BUT SO FUCKING COOL
It's so inefficient... yet it's so fucking cool...
No kidding. The sequence is cool and all, but you have to wonder how many billions it must cost every time they launch the damn thing. LOL
FUUUUUTURE
+AVClarke That is why it makes sense to keep as much of the robot in space as possible instead of re launching it all each time. Its also convenient that somehow each expansion ring manages to stay lined up despite them being on different orbits.
no it does not make sense, the objects would not stay in that orbit for long

The _GaoGaiGar_ is strong with this one.
ok, now do it in kerbal space program !
I think they used KSP for the storyboards.
Holy Thunderbirds, Batman!
The Two Froms of this Mecha are Cool people. Thanks.
And that's how Equestria was made.
I adore ludicrous super robot combinations 😂 They are just so cool

Vehicle Voltron looking good these days
Someday they will realize it's better to assemble in factory
cooooooooool!
It is inefficient for sure, but it is necessarily to be cool, it is a giant robot after all
It's such a shame the rest of the anime wasn't nearly as cool as this sequence.
Well you could say all their budget went into the combining sequence
Denji Uchuu Gattai! Complete! Captain Earth!
Looks cool. But if I was the enemy I would have engaged durring his transformation part.
This is a super robot, GATTAI included.
Wait so that robot can’t be created without those satellite rings. Yeaaaahhh, I’ll pass.
Clearly, these animators grew up watching GaoGaiGar. :D
Form feet and legs. Form arms and torso, and I’ll form the head.
The enemy got tired of waiting. So, they left already.
Have fun putting all that unnecessary stuff back in it’s place.
Great sequence, I love a good mecha transformation scene. But I have to ask. Wouldn't it just make sense to just keep the robot assembled and save time?
Did I just see a kid in a mech become a suppository for a larger mech?
Not the worst I've seen . Have you watched FLCL? It's the one where a mech ate and later poop that kid, all as literal as I said .
@@remliqa I remember friends raving about it like it was the greatest thing since sliced bread but I lost interest about half way through the 1st episode. Maybe I'll revisit it now that my interests have shifted.
I do love the sequence and it does look cool especially when i was a kid but why not just build the complete robot.
I was like, "WHOA that speed is insane. They can deploy the hero millions of miles away" then nope...stops right as he finished....whats the point?
Has anyone made an Expand Dong joke yet?
Expand dong. Joke made. Swish. GG
What happens to the first set of limbs the core mecha shed to link up? Just left in the satellite for later reattachment.
Does it ever fight as separate robots? or does it need the large stations to combine every time?
one thing i never understood with this, why have the smaller robot be the core of the larger robot? was the smaller core robot ever used on it's own apart from the final fight?
0:26 Did i just saw what i think how the 1st phase of transformation happens...?
How big is the mecha?
uhhhh why is this in my recommended feed?
*youtube pls explain*
I could hear some money-flapping sounds from their budget😅
I love that breaking thrust effect right near the end
“Humanity needed a protector and champion. And thus was born that very protector....Captain Earth.”
still the coolest realistic transformation scene ever. and it's 2D drawn. so animators power 9999.
Nah. It tries too hard.
I wouldn’t call it inefficient at all. Just think about an enemy taking out the structure that houses the completed mech. Another thing, if this was reality I’m sure it would go by much faster than we see.
as opposed to taking out the one that houses the arms? a single facility would be easier to defend
With all that booster rocket, i think that mech loose a lot of energy fuel
What's the point of the smaller robot?
That's pretty fucking ninja. However in the time that rigmarole took place I would have already fired my photon torpedoes and everybody is now dead. Battlefield practicality always wins over looking cool.
Uhm...So, what happens if something goes imperfect?
They built a Gundam.
maybe its before gundarium era, each mechanism is separated
Wait. Anime mecha aldy that good 10years ago ? What the heck is current animators doing now ? A.i. doing their work ?
So they turned Gundom into a Megazord 😂
Is it just me, or does the initial robot enter the legs of the larger robot through the bung-hole ... ?
a launch sequence that can bankrupt a small country finance..
Now that's legit
Captain Earth Gattai!
Respect to Captain EARTH:
But Impulse Gundam & Core/Core II Gundam + PLANETs System Armors were efficient & better👌
Why doesn't it just launch as a fully formed mech? Even if it had modular interchangable parts, this is weird.
Captain Earth has heavy space and astronaut theme. Launching a smaller module on Earth than doing the combination is actually how thing like the ISS got made.
Because japan like
this syatem😂
And...it let this work
look so awesome.
So... Does this have a model kit i can buy?
Es un gundam
Double E

Tauburn's less fabulous brother.
no not really we couldn't call them brothers really though since one is an pirate
And son of Buster machine 1 and 2 😂

0 reasons to transform at high speed.
A gigachad mech transformation so cool that when he's fenished you finish.
合体シーケンスのコストかけ過ぎてて笑える。その分兵器や戦力に回せなかったのか。でもこれがアニメの美学よね。
Would love an inefficient toy of this ... too bad none came close as they are all too efficiwnt
Why is there so much grunting in anime?
WHY IS THIS SO LONG, FUCK
Space is big. They wanted to use as much space as possible.
+Balrog Think of it like a mahou shoujo transformation: that's like pure fanservice for the fans of the genre
