Do you think humanity's technological development in Macross

Of course not. They still haven't mastered VFs being able to Fold manually without boosters yet. Nor have they gotten any kind of wide-spread anti-beam coating.

They can't even gattai. Even Gundams can do that.

I wonder how far they can take idol technology though.

>>13835530
If we're going by Symphogear, they straight up have full heretical technology and not!gears.

>>13835538

So what you're saying is, idol technology requires Nana to advance.

I hope that plane is on autopilot, because I'd crash that expensive mecha trying to watch that screen and fly.

Or what about.

Giant cyborg idols. Part god-like warmachine, part entertainer, all sexy.

Series 5 premise confirmed you guys!

I'd settle for a series where instead of two girls competing for a guy, it's <two people of genders as of yet undetermined> going after a girl.

So basically this then

Although maybe the rape scene doesn't happen

>>13835622
VF Idols would be crazy even by Kawamori standards, but damn I want it even if only to get VF clang clang doujins

Knights of Sidonia has exactly what you want. An ermaphrodite and a giant penis lusting after a guy.

>>13836138

He wants them
>going after a girl

Sidonia is the OPPOSITE of what he wants.

Kannazuki no Miko is closer to what he wants, except since the MC girl is gay as hell, the male love interest doesn't actually stand a chance and the female love interest has that shit locked down from the start (even though she doesn't know it).

>>13836146
Addendum - female love interest has that shit locked down so hard that she wins despite all manner of crazy stalker shit, up to and including rape.

KnM is basically taking the phrase 'Love means never having to say you're sorry' and going 'Let's see how far that can go!'

>>13836508
>Addendum - female love interest has that shit locked down so hard that she wins despite all manner of crazy stalker shit, up to and including rape

I thought her sneaking a kiss in the first episode when the MC was knocked out had some mystic plot purpose. Turns out it was just foreshadowing for how rapey she was willing to get.

>>13835530
>They still haven't mastered VFs being able to Fold manually without boosters yet
You see the Drakens fold in sans boosters in the preview episode.

>>13835976
>it's <two people of genders as of yet undetermined> going after a girl.

If that's what you want then watch western television. Nearly every show now is cramming in trannys and the like into their shows. No fucking clue why you would possibly want to watch that progressive garbage, but hey you can go ahead and kill yourself for all I care.

>>13835530
>anti-beam coating
They got PPB, anti-beam coating is fucking nothing.

>>13836710
>If that's what you want then watch western television

He's saying they can be male or female

The point is he wants a female MC being the subject of pursuit, because fuck male MCs, they're all terrible nowadays

>>13836710
Nobody said anything about transvestites, Sherlock.

>>13836721

He's probably a /v/ (or worse, /co/) crossboarder, so terrified of the plague overtaking his chosen media that he keeps assuming it's in everything

>>13836717
>The point is he wants a female MC being the subject of pursuit
That's what shojo is for.

>>13836753

Any with giant robots?

>>13836759
Besides Magic Knight Rayearth, not really.

There's Escaflowne though, which I hesitate to call a shojo. I'm not a fan of Kawamori's "2 guys go after 1 girl" love triangles but that one was okay

They still havent developed valkyries with swords

They actually already have anti-beam coatings.

>Anti-Optical Weapon Vaporization Armor

>A defensive countermeasure added to the passive stealth coating material spread upon the airframe surface of a variable fighter. The anti-optical weapon coating vaporizes instantly when exposed to high amounts of energy, which in turn diffuses incoming laser/beam weapon strikes upon the armor. A beam machine gun-grade weapon would have about 30% of its output dampened by anti-optical weapon armor (Macross Chronicle 2E Technology Sheet 01E Variable Fighter: Defenses). The VF-171EX Nightmare Plus is described as having a white hull due to the anti-optical weapon vaporization armor coating (Macross Chronicle 2E Frontier Mechanic Sheet NUNS 03A). The VF-25S Messiah has this anti-optical weapon armor featured as standard (Macross Chronicle 2E Frontier Mechanic Sheet SMS 02A). Great Mechanics.DX 9 also mentions the VF-25 Anti-Optical Weapon Vaporization Armor (see also Anti-Laser Coating).

They still havent done anything with spiritia technology

>>13837376
It's not exactly a coating though.

>>13837501
Because only people like Basara can generate a large amount of spiritia.

Tech that only works for a small group of people isn't that high on the priority list unless they really need them to fight off aliens like the protodevlin.

>>13835512
>Do you think humanity's technological development in Macross will level off with Delta?
There is a reason they are now telling stories on the fringe of the human colonies. It is like with colonists everywhere, you get tech degradation when you are far away from the main civilisation. Much like how the first Englishmen who colonised the Americas basically lived like they are in the iron age.

The war finally ends when the girl accepts both of them.

I'd love to kiss her boobies if you catch my drift.

>>13837964
Those were special though and they only made them for Sound Force. They haven't had the resources for every Valkyrie to have attachments yet

He's sneaking more in Delta. The VF-31's gunpod looks very Armored Core.

Tanaka! Tanaka naka!

>>13838039
Why would every Valkyrie need to combine? They already have optional packs.

Heck the VF-0 and VF-27 had Ghosts that act as boosters. The SV-262 Draken was shown to have deplorable Ghost drones.
