Hey /m/, I'm looking to get into Macross. Where should I start? A friend strongly suggested Frontier.
Also, general thoughts on Macross so I know what I'm getting into? I'm not totally sure this is the right board to ask, but everyone says /m/ is the best slow board.
>>15443849
If you don't mind dated and somewhat bad animation, start at the original. Frontier is a fine starting place, but it's better if you've seen the older series
Original unless your a faggot.
>>15443860
>>15443858
Okay, I'll check out the original first. I've also been told you expect a lot of singing, which seems weird because there's no air in space (?)
Kamille is a girl's name.
>>15442789
Yes, that's correct.
>>15442789
I'm half-French, and I can assure you that Camille/Kamille is not, by nature, a gender-specific name. It just became less and less common to name boys like that for reasons I can't explain.

That's actually really nice.
Mr. Go heard you like Mazinger, so he is making more.
https://akiba-souken.com/article/29918/
>>15450348
Mazinger is pathetic compared to Grendizer, who is from space.
>>15450353
Who cares, Great Mazinger beats them both
>>15450348
UME is doing the script for the new Mazinger movie, also the comic for the prequel sidestory.

Okay, so actually been curious about this lately, what would have happened if Char had joined with Haman during the Gryps Conflict and rejoined Zeon? Would he have taken command or would Haman have kept control? Would they share joint control, as unlikely as that seems, or would Zeon have been plunged into a civil war even quicker than when Glemy tried to do it? Could the war against the Earth Sphere have been much more efficient and devastating, or could it have been avoided altogether, again as unlikely as it seems.
>>15449993
Char would have gotten Amuro involved spelling their doom. Kamille's reaction is one I've always been interested in though. Reccoa's too. Glemy would have definitely rebelled since he's a Zabi and Char killed a lot of his family. Mashymre's character may have changed since everyone would assume Char is banging Haman. The Argama may not have got to Shangri La.
>>15449993
>what would have happened if Char had joined with Haman during the Gryps Conflict and rejoined Zeon
At what point? Why?
I honestly cannot imagine what would cause Char to willingly work with Haman as part of her Neo Zeon. I know the original plan for ZZ/Zeta Part II was to have Char join her in Neo Zeon as part of a ploy to train Judau and assassinate Haman, but that's not really joining her - only pretending to.
>>15450006
How would Glemy even know? It's not like Char was going around publicly announcing he had directly killed Kycillia and helped set Garma up to die.
What was the first instance of power armor in fiction? Has anybody been able to trace it accurately? Was it Starship Troopers?
Dunno about the first. But Lensman came before Starship Troopers
>>15449240
Honestly it's probably some old Greek myth about some God-armor.
>>15449268
Yeah, i am positive that the novel "Galactic Patrol" of 1937 presented the first istance of power armor.
Is there a reason why they make all the flat breasted women complete garbage in gundam?
See Tifa,Lalah,Sayla,Shakti,Kiki,Raraiya,Manny,Relena,Lacus,China,Shia,Sochie,Mineva etc
Meanwhile women with real breasts are far better characters in the same series
See Katejina,Marbet,Karen,Aida,Fflay,Cagalli,Murre, Kihel,Enil,Aila,Gyanko,Fumina,Mirai(0079),Fraw, Marida, Haman etc.
It's weird dawg how writers go full retard when dealing with females of small bust sizes.
>Meanwhile women with real breasts are far better characters
>mother figures and psychopath bitches make for better characters
>>15449098
>mother figures and psychopath bitches make for better characters
The truth.

>Why won't anyone answer my question?
Try being specific, especially about your materials and process. Post pictures whenever possible; even if the kit/part looks bad, you are more likely to get help posting pictures.

**MELEE GROUP BUILD**
Build/paint a robot with a loadout focused on melee combat! Anything from shields to swords to lances to axes to bare fists is fair game. There's no room for ranged weaponry here, however, so anything resembling a rifle, Rocket Launcher, cannon, pistol, or any other ranged weapon is a no-go (Small ranged weapons that are built into the kit itself like head vulcans are ok, however).
More clarification here:
>If the body part has a built-in ranged weapon (head/chest vulcans, claw beams, etc), then that's fine. If it's a separate part like the Alex's arm vulcans it's best to leave those off.
>Melee weapons with in-universe ranged capabilities (Like the Kimaris's lance or the Gyan's shield) are fair game too.
>Any scale and any brand is fair game here, you're not limited to just using Gundams this time around.

If Hollywood ever does a live action Gundam (and assuming they settle on UC and not Wing), is there any chance at all that they won't erase the late 70s/early 80s aesthetics? I thought they did a commendable job of transferring A New Hope's to Rogue One, and it would be nice to see a sci-fi movie that made a concerted effort to dress the actors and set in a unique, purposeful way.
