Subject: Halo Legends 2: What would you want to see?

Your one stop shop for all of 343's fabulous errors and ridiculous notions in the Halo lore.

I probably should put this in the Waypoint Forums, but I just didn't like that board, it seems...weird to me. But here I go anyway.

For the most part, Halo Legends was a decent addition to the expanded universe. Yes, there were errors, some that can be chalked up to artistic licensing and oversights. Also, the art direction for most of the episodes was pretty good to.

If 343 Industries does do a second Legends, it would be better to come back to the west to make it. Now I have nothing against the Japanese anime directors and writers, I mainly say it so I don't have to hear the people against Legends say "It's too Japanesey" as if that were a bad thing.

If any Western animator should touch Halo, it should be Genndy Tartakovsky. True, he did cutesy stuff like the Powerpuff Girls, but the man knows plenty of action and character development, just look at his Clone Wars series and Sym-Bionic Titan.

In terms of canon, I would like to see more of Noble Team or the missions of Gauntlet and Echo Teams durign the Battle of Reach.

Vengeance only leads to an ongoing cycle of hatred.

I'd like to see a Hunter episode. All about Hunters. They're so interesting and mysterious. I'd like to see another ODST episode. Particularly Buck's squad. Wouldn't mind seeing a regular Marine story, either. Don't see much of that. Possibly a episode with Grey team from Cole Protocol.

Never thought of a Hunter story, it would be interesting to see.

Disregard that, forgot to delete my previous thought. I feel so stupid.

I just expelled buckets of liquid joy. Seriously? I want that. It's "anime" enough to pander to that audience, and I think it would be absolutely bad-ass. I loved the Clone Wars series that he did! Imagining that as Halo is the greatest animation that could happen to the universe!

Imagine this, but with Spartans.

That would be awesome. But, a lot more mature. I don't want to see a Halo animation series that's all censored and has kids in mind. That'd be terrible...

Well, I was making tacos so, I'm not sure about the other guys.

I'd definitely go for some Buck/ODST action.

  • 06.28.2011 11:52 AM PDT

I really just want to see one non cgi episode of Blue Team doing what they do most. Kicking covenant ass on the surface of a planet.

I'm more partial to Dutch myself, but really anything ODST related would be sweet. They had better get the original voice actors though.

- Episode about Forerunners. Be it told as an origin story of 343 GS or by someone else (like Bornstellar or Soma the Painter).

- An episode about Headhunters

- A Noble Team "orgins" story, maybe not origins as in founding of the team, but one leading up to the battle where they lost Thom.

- Human Weakness from Evolutions as a full blown episode.

- A post H3 story.

- Story involving a battle in space. Maybe about Cole or Keyes.

- An ODST story, raw and gritty please.

Well, a Headhunter story is being made by 343 in the form of a motion comic already and I imagine they'll do Human Weakness some time in the future.

Signatures are for squares.

One episode based entirely on the battle between MB and OB. That thousands of ships battle would be beautiful to see.

One episode following Bucks Squad. Either before or After the events of ODST. If it's before, then there's no Rookie or Dare.

One episode following Noble Team before the events on Reach. Explain how they got Jorge or something.

One episode based during the Grunt Rebellion

One episode following a Headhunter mission.

And then a couple other episodes following marines or a covenant squad or something.

That clone wars series (linked) was okay in certain bits... their intro of grievous was just terrible though, he looked like a deer in headlights instead of a badass. edit: to expand, scenes like this were ridiculous. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7A07WNupEXk&NR=1 Hated how Windu looked. Stupid jumps at the end as well... Not a fan lol.

Personally, I like caboose's suggestions :P. Though I've love to see an episode showing how actually good the Elites and Brutes were in combat, kill some of the misconceptions about Spartans being the absolute best soldiers in the galaxy during the human-Covenant war.

Edit2: I would have to say most of the suggestions I do like personally.

Yeah, an unnamed one too! That'd be a kicker if they are in combat a lot :P.

Maybe elites that didn't look so weedy. The elites in the mona Lisa were brilliant.

I agree with a Noble Team, origin, story. I really want to care for those Spartans, the way I should have done in Reach. A successful short would really help them. I wouldn't have to think 'disappointment' every time I think of them.

A Hunter story would be cool, too. As would one focused on Grey Team. The destructive Spartans would be cool to watch.

But thats the Headhunters story we already know ;) I want a new Headhunters story. I mean, there were a lot more Headhunters and Spartans going behind enemy lines and kicking major @$$: can't have enough of those stories!

And Human Weakness wouldn't go well for a motion comic I think. Its a bit too deep, too much story behind it to work well in a motion comic form. A full fledged Legends episode would do more justice to that story.

Yes I would, but they really need to tone down the kawaii uguu~.
