What went wrong?

Kawamori forgot the analytical and critical angle Macross works are supposed to have towards conflict and the music industry and decided to blindly embrace stupid moe idol groups earnestly in his old age.

>we want the mahou shoujo audience

>>135677165
hasn't Macross always had idolshit

Macross was insufferable from the start.

Is this the anime they are making in Shirobako???

>>135678831
Yeah, but not Love Live level idolshit.

Nothing.
The only people complaining are people who didn't like Macross 7 either.

>>135679026
what's the difference

Kawamori high on protoculture anima spirita and snorting vajra crystals

I hadn't given up completely until the idols started doing transformations and saying catchphrases in frozen frames. When the valks swooped in and struck a backstreet boys pose in the background before taking off again a part of me died.

>>135680326
Thst was literally the best part. I wanted them to start dancing.

>>135680862
>literally the best part

Are you serious?

>>135681267
Yeah.
You need to stop taking Macross so seriously. Go watch Macross 7. That'll help recalibrate you.

>>135681296
7 was just silly, not full retard.

>>135681369
If you think that, then clearly you've forgotten most of 7.

>>135680326
It is nothing new at all. Didn't Macross 7 have Basara fly out in the middle of battles with his guitar and sing while firing speaker missiles?

>Then
Idolshit
>Now
Idolshit

What's wrong?

>>135681468
It also had VFs controlled by musical instruments.
I fail to see how Delta is any stupider than that.

At least its original. Never seen ahoge that is so strong it pokes a hole in clothing.

So, is this the Wing or the SEED of Macross?

>>135681369
>7 was just silly, not full retard.
Why do people keep saying this? It's all silly

>>135682903
>It's the Love Live of Macross

>>135679181
Delta really seems to emphasize the idol bullshit waaaaay too much.

>Macross will never have shit fall apart again like it did in SDF
>main characters losing each other as one becomes more and more famous
>other characters becoming alcoholics
>pineapple salad
>Earth getting glassed
>best girl taking pictures of herself cuddling puppies
>taking the baby into battle
>MC getting promoted as the Macross is slowly starved of other good pilots
>giant ass laser in Alaska

Fuck I have to watch it again.

>>135679181

Macros: Singing mostly in the safety of the battleship, once in front of the enemy but they looked "attentive"
Macros 7: Singing while protected by your own custom mech able to avoid most danger with the spacy behind them
Macros F: Singing mostly in the safety of the battleship, sometimes in a mech piloted by aces

Macros ∆: Dancing in a war zone unprotected while lip-syncing to shitty mass produced pop crap. Aces too busy trying to dance along to do shit.

Basara knew how to handle himself

And using rock music to fight interdimensional space vampires isn't?

Let's face it, anon: You're just a misogynist. You hate Macross Delta because it has women saving the day instead of men.

space vampires feed off music so it all works

>Let's face it, anon: You're just a misogynist. You hate Macross Delta because it has women saving the day instead of men.

girl pilots were in SDF and 7 too.

>>135685198
But they didn't save the day.
You even called it "slut dancing".
Maybe you should check your mecha-anime-privilege.

I don't know. Something just feels off. I really want to like Delta but the show is like a shirt that you like but find out that its a size too small. I will give it some more time though, because I's like to see some more Zentraedi machines.
