Regardless of what you think about GATE, do you at least agree that we need more shows about fantasy VS technology, right?

Yes. We see so much isekai and so few that allow two worlds to interact instead of just a single person.

While I do like the idea of fantasy vs. technology, I find it extremely hard to balance.

Way too often, one side is clearly superior. Figuring out a magic system that is strong enough to beat technology, but is not overpowered and is not just our modern tech in different skin would take lots of skill and effort.

total bullshit

I would prefer fantasy combining with technology.
We got hints of it in Vividred, Nanoha, and Escaflowne but its really underused.

We're getting a new series that does that sometime. Combatants Will Be Dispatched anime has been announced. Same author as Konosuba, so if you like that style then its something to look forward to.

I think we can agree that we need more Rory.

We need more fantasy with technology more advanced than generic medieval.

No.

Instead of literal propaganda, seeing peasants and knights form a Vietnam/Afghanistan like insurgency against a modern military or aliens would be cool

That's a separate issue, but also true. The plot and page limits of a monthly adaptation sometimes gets in the way of just seeing more of her in the manga.

No, it's a silly idea and I don't see any way to make it actually interesting.

Maybe some scientific revolution/industrial revolution fantasy against interstellar scifi technology.

I agree.

I wish for more military popadanci style in isekai. Something like in Gargantia. MC with advanced tech mech/powerarmor getting isekaed.

Orbital superiority is OP. Magic would have to be pretty ridiculous for it to be anything short of a cakewalk. And then the industrial revolution is probably irrelevant.

If it wouldn't be as much of a cakewalk if magic could include kinds of mental control that can't be defended against easily, and there are things you want intact and can't just destroy. There are plenty of combinations of technology and types of magic systems we don't see much of.

"Space wizards" are pretty rare. Mage who manipulate physical laws.

This

user, if you care I tried to make a premise like that. At first the modern world curbstomp the various factions.
Where it change is when the modern try to use magic themselves, they discovers it come from in-universe sentient god who HATE being disrespected or exploited.
Then it go worse when dark spirit start corrupting the various modernpeople sent in magiworld and they don't have nice cleric to ward them.
Eventually they are forced to ask for some help, which is when they realize how easy it is to convert modernpeople who prayed for fake god when the god of that setting can appear in person.
The story would reach the end when modern-scientist convert the magiworld to rationalism and kickstarting magiscience.
The various faction make peace with each others, and set the right spells together to charge with army protected against bullets, artillery, who EMP the tank and magic-missile the choppers.
It end with magiworld learning magitech but maintaining their independence and the gods studying scientifcally the modern-world to see why it doesn't have gods protecting the human anymore.

The concept of this anime is very interesting to me, but based on the fact its only shat on around here and this is the only time I've seen a webm from it that wasn't the Roman soldiers getting shot it must be complete trash
That being said, should I watch it?

I was assuming we were ruling out sensible but boring solutions like orbital bombardment. But being able to see the world from orbit and place troops where you like are already pretty overwhelming advantages.
I'd say mental powers are still either easily dealt with once you know about them or make things basically impossible because you can't control your troops.

Newbro, we had GATE threads long before election era and anime. Why are you even asking retards in Zig Forums? Just watch it. Or read.

Bad

Yes. The manga is better.

It's still way too much of JSDF wank.

stop being mutt

I just see most of it as modern Earth vs another world. Being JSDF doesn't matter that much.

who cares? aside from the spa house thing it's extremely easy to forget that it's the JSDF and not just a modern military stand-in

That episode in particular needed more Giselle.
Much more.

Outbreak company > GATE

I don't give a fuck about muh USA stronk bullshit, the problem is they have literally zero opposition in the fantasy world and all people who could possibly be dangerous to JSDF fall in love with MC instead.
