I guess I would fall into the rubbish category. It's spectacularly not funny, and I personally don't get why my brother raves about it. IMO, I think it tries to hard and just ends up falling flat. Total rubbish. This is pointless fanservice anime at its worst. (Though it's arguable that Strike Witc...

I seriously doubt Tomino'll ever touch Gundam again outside of a ZZ Gundam movie trilogy, somehow.

It feels to me that he has a "Meh. I'm done with Gundam. You kids have fun with it." stance on it. He alluded to it in some interview regarding SEED, didn't it?

On a side-note, I actually once owned 'The Master's Gambit' which was the 'novelisation of the film'. Never read it. Don't own it anymore. I regret that. Uh.. It was the novelization of the film? Really..? Weird. I have it. I read it, it's somewhere in my stash of books. All it really involves is D...

In response to the Eden/Hydra thing, it could possibly mean that the V-Type virus renders people susceptible to Ranka's singing the way she affects the Vajra, albeit in strange, possibly violent ways.

When Ranka sings, I get violent.

I have a feeling that Grace is probably a remotely operated entity, hence the way she acted when she set off the bomb.

With the possible exception of plus EVERY macross has had a supporting character (or characters) who were better pilots than the hero. Macross had Hikaru being not quite as good as Max, Miria, and Fokker. Mac 7 is hard to tell due to the animation and the fact basara doesn't actualy fight, but I ge...

You answered it yourself. 7 was a 49 episode TV series.

Macross Plus was a 4 Episode OVA.

Let's say both had the same budget. Each episode of Macross Plus ALONE would have the budget of say, 12.25 episodes of Macross 7.

I tried the demo. It's pretty fun, though spawn camping will be a HUGE issue in Assault missions.

It's be hilarious if the system suddenly decided to pull the macross towards it, wherever it ended up. Apparently in Gallia 4!

Still, that really is a bit of a stretch.

It'd be interesting if this had anything to do with the Macross's old fold system that went up and vanished after its first use.

The VF-27's insane. I wonder what sorts of addons it has in store? If the VF-25 was built with that sort of thing in mind, hopefully the '27 does as well. It's about as slim as the VF-25.

That, and well... Given the mediocrity of Macross II, it's pretty funny to see the Jamming Birds make use of its music.

Is.. That who I think it was?!!? Our insane purple friend!?

It'll be like Basara.

"Screw you both. I love music."

Only it's flying, in his case.

Awesome! The figure on the right looks a ton like what's her face from RahXephon, though I'm guessing it's just supposed to be her. Haha!

Well, it's been 50 years since the events of Zero, so I guess things were eventually declassified.

Considering how long it's been around despite the Protodeviln being sealed up, I guess the Supervision Army would still be quite the threat even with their masters turning over a new leaf.

Ah! That makes sense. I was sort of figuring something like that, but I wasn't quite sure. So there's been about 30 Megaroad fleets and a bunch of New Macross-styled fleets.

Got it, thanks!

Makes me wonder. Even with the Protodeviln dealt with, there's still a considerable Supervision Army threat, isn't there.

Thanks Chris Back to the topic, this one just hit me: the habitat portion of the Macross Frontier/25 is specifically called "Island 1" rather than "City 25". The original SDF Macross series began with the Zentradi attacking the humans inside a city on South Ataria Island , the c...
