Mikumo is protosquid.

What if in every protoculture ruin lies a baby of said protoculture, and when they mature they release a ton of energy. That's the real reason the ruins on Windermere are blown up. Also maybe that would explain a lot about Mikumo, it also might explain why freyja and Mikumo's fold waves amplify each other. Since Freyja witnessed the birth of Mikumo they might share a connection or something.

>>143269142
Freyja and Mikumo are destined to transcend the series. At the end of the last episode only Kaname, Makina and Reina will be the last members of Walkure.

So Hayate still has this trick up his sleeve.

Hayate + Mirage dancing episode when?

>>143269216
I'm OK with this.

>>143269216
Freyja transcends into Center Nova and brings Hayate with herself to Valhalla and they have lots of passionate sex there for the sake of recreation. Their kids becomes spirits of greater beings and reincarnate like famous songstreses and pilots. The spirit of one of Freyja's and and Hayate's daughters is reborn as a daughter of Mirage and Keith and thus Mirage also becomes spiritual mother of Hayate's daughter.

Someone mentioned there was a pre-anime delta manga last thread. Anyone have a link to it? Is it about Freyja?

It's called Macross E, and it's about the first Walkure member. She is also the girl on the Walkure logo.

>Chaos
>Started as a venture in Fold correspondence/information as well as Fold navigation and has rapidly expanded its structure the last 10 years. They're an interstellar conglomerate whose intelligence and entertainment department possess the tactical music unit "Walkure" and "Delta Squadron" that does joint operations with them. The Ragna branch that Hayate and the others belong to have Macross Elysion as their mothership.

>Delta Squad
>A squad of transformable fighters belong to the third combat flight group of Chaos Ragna. Their duty is to do jointly actions with Walkure. Naturally they guard them, and the special airframes of their VF-31 Siegfrieds are loaded with Fold Quarts that amplify the effects of song. Member personnel selection is entrusted to the commanding Officer Arad.

>Walkure
>Tactical music unit belonging to the information and entertainment department of Chaos. Its members are composed of girls with a high fold receptor values. Their singing voice and effective surpressing VAR outbreaks, and can also be used preemptively. Their formation follows from the research on fold effects from songs, previously from "FIRE BOMBER", "jamming Birds", "Sheryl Nome" and "Ranka Lee". After Windermere declare war, in order to counter the mind control by the "Wind Song", they also do infiltration operations.

>Merecat (Umineko)
>A creature that appears to be a cross between a cat and a seal. It prefers to eat fish but is an omnivore, it packs mean punch with its fin. It has a long history of coexistance with Ragnans, and is cherished as animal that gets rid of vermin. They are also popular with Earthlings as pets. There is saying on Ragna that if you bully a merecat you will marry late.

There are two pre-anime manga, Macross E about a Chaos pilot and an idol, only first chapter available, check the archive. Second one is Keith's manga (pic related), it's in English on Batoto, I have the links to the raws if you want them in Japanese. You should read this one, Macross E is bad but Keith's is pretty good.

Then there's Freyja's manga, a retelling of the anime from Freyja's point of view but it has a couple of flashback scenes from Freyja in Windermere. Again, on the archive.

>>143270864
>She is also the girl on the Walkure logo.
That still needs confirmation.

>>143270945
>Kingdom of Windermere
>A small independent kingdom centered around Windermere IV in the Brisingr globular clusters on the edge of the galaxy. They preserve a national polity that is similiar to monarchies of medieval europe on earth. Cold climate is characteristic, and it is covered in snow for the greater part of the year. They are under economic embargo from the united earth government since the war of independence ended in armistice seven years earlier.

>Windermerean
>A race was very similar to the human race, but with strong bodies and a physical abilities. These abilities surpass micloned Zentraedi. However, they pay a price in that they are short-lived, the average life span is about 30 to 35 years old. In their later years their skin begins to crack like withering plant, gradually decaying. They have a specific sensory organ called a "Rune" on their heads.

>Rune
>A sensory organ specific to Windermereans. Able to sense vibrations and presences as well as fold waves among things, it supports their high physical abilities. Able to sense their brainwaves the tip will align with their emotions and give off light. Males have two and females have one. The tip is usually shaped like a star or straight for males, females often have heart or tear shaped tips, though individual variation is great. The tip has many nerves is very sensitive.

>Aerial Knights
>A variable fighter force of the Kingdom of Windermere. They operate the state-of-the-art stealth fighter attack aircraft "Sv-262 Draken Ⅲ". The holy knight Lloyd Brehm leads them. One of the Imperial Guards, Keith Aero Windermere, leads the White knight squad that operates 6 aircraft.

>Wind Singer

>>143270985

>Brisingr Globular Cluster
>Globular cluster which is located near the tip of the Sagittarius galactic spiral arm. With a diameter of about approximately 1000 light-years, it contains many habitable planets such as Ragna and Al-Shahal as well as Windermere. In addition it is dotted with protocultur ruins and each planet house indigenous people. In addition, around the Windermere star system there is huge dimensional fault making traffic to and from difficult.

>Epsilon Foundation
>Huge conglomerate expanding it's business across the galaxy. Its constituent organizations are numerous, and it has a hand in research and development and sales of weapons, agricultural produce and medical products. They are the largest supporters of the Windermerean administration, and Berger Stone works as the foundations head of the Brisingr globular cluster division.

>Rudanjaaru Nomu Mayan
>A sacred phrase passed down for generations in the Windermere royal house, holds the meaning "Below the name of the true king"

>Protoculture
>Prehistoric civilization that are set as the first intelligent life in the galaxy. They assumed splendor from their sophisticated civilization, though were destroyed by the warrior race Zentraedi and protodeviln they had themselves created. The last descendants of the protoculture fled to the Brisingr globular cluster which can be confirmed by their traces in the forms of ruins left here and there.

While the mechanism of it is not fully understood, Walkure's songs have been confirmed to be effective.

>>143268710
it will happen with the pika beam

>>143271099
>Fold waves
>Something like wave motions that are formed in higher dimensions. They cross space time and transmit faster than light. Walkure's members singing voices have a fold wave component, and that they have an effect on Var syndrome is said to be becase of fold waves.

>Windermere war for independence

>Fold Receptor Factor
>A special factor believed to be capable oft calming down Var syndrome, or speeding it up. The songs of Walkure members with fold factor receptor includes a folds wave component, that can interfere with the fold bacteria that live in symbiosis with living beings. It is also often abbreviated as "fold receptor".

Kind of a crack theory but it would also explain why of all the characters in the show Mikumo interacts with Hayate the least, or not at all.

Mikumo is from the future, and she has come back to the past for a reason. She is the first Windermere/Human hydride as her parents are Freyja and Hayate. She is able to interact with Freyja because her mom passed after she was born due to her lifespan limit, but interacting too much with her dad can alter the future.

>>143271459
To placate otaku, apparently. There's a shoujo manga that suggests Brera was adopted

>>143271487
But that doesn't explain her superhuman abilities like not needing oxygen.

So basically the main girl from this, Prika is the first Walkure member. Looks like the main bad guy is also her father, it's possible she died on a walkure mission and Mikumo is a genetically modified copy of her?

>>143272810
I'm pretty sure her and the main guy pass away at the end of the series.

>>143267764
Mikumo is a direct descendant of the Protoculture race, and thus can manipulate her hair.

After hearing the ending song for the first time I quickly downloaded all the episode out so far and marathoned them.
I fucking love this song, been listening to it constantly the last few days, it genuinely moves me and makes me feel good.

They absolutely don't look anything the same.

>>143273173

My guess would be more that Mikumo is protoculture. I bet they sealed off her in some sorta time stasis pod, and either removed her memories or it was done when she was a baby.

I don't imagine her rune would feel like the tip of a penis though, but I guess that's the general consensus?

The way I think it would feel is more like..When you scratch a certain area of skin a lot because of a bug bite.
It'll be really sensitive, and really warm.

I hate this "guide" so much. It's not even a guide, it's just a poorly made list of all Macross anime series without any explanation about continuity or importance.
>Dedicated to you. Our future pioneers...
The fuck is this shit?
And why is DYRL subelement of SDF but Macross Plus has both OVA and Movie as sublements? People might think there is Plus TV version.

Please, never post it again.

Reminder that Kawamori always makes the central or Earth Government as evil or inept assholes. They are responsible for:

>partly of the Zero bullshit (together with anti UN). Sara and Shinn dying/being MIA is on their heads too.
>Earth getting glassed by the Zents because they wouldn't listen to Global and would apply really retarded tactics.
>Protodeviln crisis. Macross 7 and a lot of fleets and maybe the Galaxy would have died for their incopementence.
>Jamming Birds.
>Leon.
>Alta and Vajra Queen folding because they uselessly arrived to shoot their big guns when SMS and Frontier Foursome already fixed everything. Sheryl falling into a coma by the shock. Which was a downer ending in Frontier movies.
>The Ehvil series released. Almost the destruction of the entire fucking universe and timeline. A high ranked NUN officer was the main villain in the 30th anniversary game
>Windermere crisis. The ones the timeline mention that fucked up were the earth government, not the independent fleets NUN government. The one dispatched to nuke Ragna against their people's consent is again an evil Earth representative.

Earth seems to be cancerous in the Macross universe. Not humans of the colonies or who live in a Macross, but those who are on the planet central government.

>>143274365
But should be still able to ttade with independent worlds like Ragna and Voldor but NUNs didnt want that. People seem to be forgetting that NUNs should be hands off approach with the colonies but they are actively yhroeing their power around.

NUN gave them technology and taught them how to use it. It allowed windermerians to instantly skip at least several centuries of progress.
They even gave them weapons and taught how to use them. Windermerians could serve in Windermerian army as part of NUNS.
King was still ruling the planet.

Sylvie was not just younger, but also part Meltran. She was the loser and "won" because of magic asspull (the Macross made them fall in love and Ishtar mentions it). Super retarded logic. Kawamori hated Sylvie and Macross II, so no loss.

>The one dispatched to nuke Ragna against their people's consent is again an evil Earth representative.
Where exactly did they say NUNS didn't get permission from Ragna's government? When? It's retarded shit pulled from your retarded ass just like the rest of your retarded claims in >>143274611. Officer didn't ask Chaos permission and Chaos is absolutely not related to Ragna government. And they don't need to ask every single person living there just like any normal government does ask opinion of every single person when making some changes.

>>143275344
LIKE BROTHERS. Brothers don't fuck.

>>143275334
And yet you're stating as a fact that they did it.

>>143275334
Oh please. You don't have a fucking point or anything to support that they did. Both parties blame each other for the incident and King Gramia is convinced that the NUNS did it and vice versa.

>>143275387
We are also tired of your retarded NUNS/NUG white knighting so please stop or at least start using a trip or a name so I can filter your posts.

So, why do the knights have such shitty attitudes in comparison with Freyja?

Is it because Freyja is just a normal kind of girl from a small village, and the males are elitist assholes that have no clue about peasant life in the snow? Have they not ever harvested apples for a living or something?

>>143275387
CHAOS was hired by the Ragna government for protection. Why would the government "forget" to inform this to them? The NUNS dispatched their bomb when the guy had just landed. The people in Ragna were displeased by the NUNS arrival rather than the upcoming Windermere attack. Pay attention to the theme of the show.

Respecting local culture and governments according to Kawamori. The NUG is the antagonist. Windermere are just what happens when you push one of these planets too much.

Unless you're an autist, you'll see last episode portrayed Gramia as a ruthless but protective and noble misguided antagonist while the only NUN character is Obvious Evil Bad Guy with an unpleasant personality that the characters immediately hate. Are you this retarded that they need to add alignments for you to understand Kawamori is once again making Earth the greater evil?

>>143275549
NUNS definitely didn't do it. So it's windermerian or 3rd party. Since NUNG doesn't know about 3rd party it's completely normal to impost sanctions on Windermere.

>>143275588
Dude, we just had very log discussion in the last thread.
Quick summary:
1) King never said that NUNS did it. He was blaming humans probably because by his retarded logic this would never happen if humans didn't "occupy" their planet. Actually no one ever said that NUNS did it except for Freyja, a simple windermerian peasant.
2) Official glossary states that bomb was dropped on NUNS forces and it caused NUNS to withdrew from Windermere: >>143271140. So it's not NUNS 100%
3) 3rd party is possible, but so far it's completely baseless speculation.

>>143275387
>Where exactly did they say NUNS didn't get permission from Ragna's government?
Chaos are contractors working directly for Ragna's government. It's basically Ragna's military. If NUNS asked the local government for authorization to nuke the ruins, the government would have informed Chaos. The fact that they didn't know about it when the NUNS representative showed up suggest the government didn't know about the operation either.

>>143275771
>NUNS definitely didn't do it.

You're completely mistaking NUNS with the Earth Central Government who always uses the local troops as sacrificial lambs and canon fodder (that's exactly what happened in Macross Seven). The timeline in the website stated that the Windermere fought against the United Earth Government who had show about giving zero fucks about their lives of their colony pawns. I agree NUN is innocent, but I can't really vouch for those fuckers.

>>143275776
>If NUNS asked the local government for authorization to nuke the ruins, the government would have informed Chaos
Officer landed on Ragna, got approval from government, gave order to plant bombs.
President of Ragna: "I will inform Chaos"
Officer: "No need mr. President, I will pay them a visit myself"
It's not hard to imagine how it works.

Stop using stupid speculations.

>>143275830
NUG is the antagonist. Not the only one, but they are introduced in last episode as an antagonistic force.

Can't wait for Ragna to be nuked while that guy laughs and see what excuses the NUGfags come up with.

>>143275888
>You're completely mistaking NUNS with the Earth Central Government
I think you have no idea what you are talking about. Do you even know what NUNS and NUNG are? Go read the fucking wiki.
NUNS is military of NUNG. Earth Central Government doesn't exist, it's NUNG, and it's not very centralized. Local troops do not exist, they all are part of NUNS or PMC.

>>143275830
I bet you thought Leon wasn't an antagonist, right?

>>143275911
You're stupid. If all that happened, they would have shown it to make it clear the Earth Government wasn't disrespecting Ragna's sovereignty like Windermere accused them of doing.

Not showing all that is a deliberate choice to make the Earth Government looks like the bad guys.

>>143275771
>still using "occupy"
It's occupy, period. The moment Windermere made clear that they didn't want any humans there anymore but the humans stayed and used their army to fight against WIndermere, it's occupation

I just had a thought.

We know Sheryl could change the color of her hair when she changed outfits via her holographic shit.

So, what if Mikumo's hair works the same. Maybe she doesn't even have long hair at all, but it's just a projection? That would explain how straight it becomes (when the action is on). It would also explain why it fucking shimmers and stuff.

>>143275771

You're fucking retarded.

>read the wiki
Found your problem.

Pro fucking tip: NUN was centralized when they fought against the Windmemes. Being centralized is one of the fucking problems that arose in Macross 7 with had Max and Milia turned against their retard orders. The official timeline stated this:

>Started by Windermere in 2060 as they wanted self-governing independence from the united earth government.
UNITED EARTH GOVERNMENT.
The dude who came with the bombs identified himself as a member of the central government. In the 30th game, among the many cosmology shit, it also explores the cosmopolitics.The central goverment is indeed a bunch of retards that the space colonies usually want to fuck off because they don't know anything or care about nothing but their own interest. There is tension between them because a powerful faction still wants to have control they lose with what happened in M7.

Now fuck off, Wikifag, who obviously knows shit about the subdivisions, how recent they are and the problems for Earth to accept them. Admitably, gg sucks in translating the terms in the show and you lose these nuances.

You know how the windies are always suggesting they don't have time to waste?

What if it's all comes down to the naivity of Heinz? That little shota trusts them all as to what to do. He probably hasn't thought too clearly about the rights and wrongs, and his brother clearly keeps his distance from the little prince for reasons.

So, maybe they need to rush things so they get to use the wind singer with no questions asked. Or no hassles from him. I'd imagine this comes up later in the show, him questioning the rights and wrongs of this sector-wide action his dad and brother set out on. Is he really just a tool to them? They're pretty cold to him on most occasions that I've seen.

>>143276024
The ones who arrived to Windermere were part of the Earth central government. It was a Megaroad instead of a Macross class ship (like happened in Ragna). There is a big difference between them and how they carry out their relationships with the locals. That the "Earth United Government" is the enemy the Windermere fought against it's another hint for you. It's also very interesting the asshole who came with those orders was an envoy of the central government section rather than stationed NUN fleet from the local area.

I think it's problematic that Delta isn't new watcher friendly because it assumes everyone played the vita game that came out on the anniversary (which had a shitton of world building for the NUN and the role of Earth with its tension) and watched Macross 7.

>>143276572
By the way, I'm not a NUNhater. I don't think the NUN are evil, sometimes they make mistakes. But the central Earth government isn't exactly portrayed in a positive light when Kawamori brings it up nowadays. Not the NUN, just that particular faction.

It's NUNG. It's New United Nations Government. It didn't start decentralized, but it became one long before 2060. Again, NUNG is decentralized. Central Earth Government doesn't exist.

Dude identified himself as NUNS officer delivering message from NUNS central office. Having central office doesn't mean NUNS or NUNG are centralized. It's just like NATO Headquarters.

>>143276572

Stop using my country for your retarded arguments and learn some history. Winderemere was a planet that was occupied by a foreign power, Catalonia is a region of Spain. The Kingdom Catalonia was part of willingly chose to join another Kingdom to found a new country, Spain. Catalonia is Spain, a country can't occupy itself. It has nothing to do with Windermere, they are two completely different situation.

>>143276685
>NUNG changed and improved during that period of time

Do you honestly think that changes happen in a snap of fingers specially Galaxy wide? That's being naive. That's the ideal for sure, but facts presented in the show betray you: if the government was decentralized, there wouldn't be a months-lasting war in Windermere to obtain the right of an autonomous government by the locals. That NUG sent troops to fight and occupy a planet (otherwise the war wouldn't take place), it's telling you that's just bullshit. At least in that cluster. NUG is indeed the government of Earth, by the way, which supposedly dissolved to create the NUN but as we see in Macross 30, this is kind of half-assed.

Macross 30th uses the term that the guy utilized central office to mean Earth specifically and there is permanent tension between the NUN space fleets and the central office who want their control back. High ranked members of the central office resents the decentralization policy and only keep it up because they had no means to make them obey. It's one of the plots of Macross 30th, although it's not the one explored just hinted as a background thing which happens often. Simply put: those who accumulated power are unwilling to lose control and will use any means to get it back in former areas they had influence.

NUN would be ideal if they worked as they should. But think of it as UN. What are they but tools for the local empires and big nations to push their weight and agenda?

Windermere wasn't occupied by immigration fleet too. I bet windniggers were extremely happy about all the technology and joined NUNG. But when windermereans suddenly asked NUNG to leave NUNG were not obliged to do that.

It feels weird how it seems like the Japanese internet is relatively quiet as a whole because all of the hype was being redirected to stuff like Kabaneri and Re:Zero, but there's a big turn out for stuff like this and pretty good sales for the opening single.

But government was decentralized in Frontier (1 year before the war). Current windermerian king was still a king before the war. Most likely Windermere just wanted to leave NUN just like UK wants to leave EU.

Nice fanfic.

>But when windermereans suddenly asked NUNG to leave NUNG were not obliged to do that.
Yes they were. How can you even defend this shit, it's their planet, not NUNG's. This is like the EU forcing someone to stay, this is not okay no matter how you look at it.

>>143277408
>自治独立

Pretty much states it's not the same thing as UE. That's creating an autonomous government, it implies it didn't have to. The king was likely a figurehead under the occupation. Did UE start a war in UK because they wanted out of UE? Use your brain, anon. It's more like Cuba case. Where USA got mad they didn't want to be lorded over anymore and tried to invade it and eventually made an embargo when they failed.

>>143277562
How you think Windemere nuked themselves is irrelevant when there's no definite evidence that they did it to themselves in the first place. Saying that a third party might have done it is extremely lame is purely your subjective opinion.

>>143277756
>Yes they were. How can you even defend this shit, it's their planet, not NUNG's. This is like the EU forcing someone to stay, this is not okay no matter how you look at it.

What if it was just a small portion of the planet that wanted them out? A resistance, if you will. Maybe in time it gathered steam so that the actual rulers adopted it, but by then too much conflict had happened and the local NUNS force said fuck you?

Does that change your perspective? I think you should just drop it, since we really just don't have much info on what this was like for them.

You can't believe things just because of how a small group views it. Or presents it. Truth is truth. But, maybe you're gullible like that?

>>143277878
It was used against NUNS forces. It ended war and granted victory to Windermere. NUNS officially thinks it's Winderemere. President Of Voldor thinks it was Winderemere (and Roid didn't even try to object anything). Keith calling the hole as Windermerian shame.

On the other hand a simple peasant like Freyja was told that earthlings did it. But king or anyone from Knights never mentioned that NUNS did it.

And absolutely nothing indicating third party.

In terms of probabilities theory about Windermerians accidentally nuking themselves is more likely.

>President Of Voldor thinks it was Winderemere (and Roid didn't even try to object anything). Keith calling the hole as Windermerian shame.
I haven't expressed enough that THIS IS NOT any indication or hint that Windemere did it. You're taking those scenes way too much at face value.

>But king or anyone from Knights never mentioned that NUNS did it.
They blame the Earthlings which is basically what NUG /NUNS is controlled by.

They introduced a very shady faction called the Epsilon Foundation that has much knowledge in Protoculture tech and have a lot influence who support the Windemere cause.

Whitey has his special missle packs on as well, so expect missle spam. He's already fired off his drones. The windies are such cheaters with this shit.

But, I did notice that Delta craft had pretty impressive cannons added to them in the last (couple?) episodes. The windies have those cannons as standard though. They have a lot of good stuff tucked away in their mechs.

Nah, I'm talking about in ep 10, when Messer comes down to chat with Kaname, he has this horizontal bar sticking up in back, and there's a turrent on it that turns and shoots.

He already stated the love triangle is faint. You wouldn't get any triangle scenes except filler ones when the action isn't ragging.

Mirage's feelings as admiration are a sure proof of a loser, unfortunately.

>>143279241
Yes

The "trapped together" shit only works if the two people were antagonistic with each others, are strangers or are enemies. It's a chance to force them to speak.

It doesn't work with two people who already know each other and have an okay working relationship because it changes nothing about them.

>>143279395
You know how Kawamori doesn't like to do the same thing again. Mirage will win.

>>143279544
So, what does that green colored thing do?

>>143274875
Watch what you want whenever. You'll get more from Macross if you've seen previous series but it's not necessary. If you're in a hurry just watch the movies, and the shorter series. Movies are mostly retellings of events, not recaps, they go differently than the series. Except Plus, I tink they pretty much went the same. And 7's are just extra shit, not retellings but I didn't watch.

Don't worry much about continuity because Kawamori stated that all these are in-universe shows of historical events. So there were real Space Wars and the famous people are real, etc but it's a dramatization of history, subject to artistic license like in our world. The exception are some of Minmay's (first songstress) concerts, because that's actual footage of her, and some official information.

Best to watch in production order. So, SDF and DYRL > Plus > 7 > Zero > Frontier and its movies. Kawamori didn't make II and doesn't like it.

>>143279638
It recharges the Walkure's drones. I think it was shown in the pilot episode (Mission 0.89) but not in the official airing if episode 1.

>>143279794
Its one of the few cut scenes. Dumb choice since it makes the drones seem broken af

>>143280086
I'm not surprising even his drone acting like his master.

>>143280145
It will surely be in the BD/DVD release since they'll combine all scenes from both pilot and broadcast episodes.

>>143275776
Ernest mentions Ragna forces are with them. This is why Chaos combined all their forces on Ragna as to protect it while Macross Elysion and Ragna forces strike Gramia at Al Shahal.

>>143276024
NUNS are more like NATO actually.

>>143276267
>Pro fucking tip: NUN was centralized when they fought against the Windmemes. Being centralized is one of the fucking problems that arose in Macross 7 with had Max and Milia turned against their retard orders. The official timeline stated this:

Um no as of 2050 the UNG decentralized already to the NUNG. This led to a small civil war in UN Spacy between Earth Supremacist faction Lactence and UN Spacy officers who opposed them as these assholes were selling weapons to terrorists to destabilize frontier planets. In the end Lactence coup failed and was purged from the government. The guy who was supplying Lactence and terrorists with Fold Quartz based Sound Jamming System Manfred Brando, president of the PMC Critical Path corporation, was sponsor of the 117th Research Fleet and a Macross Galaxy co-conspirator. He is the one who saved Grace and when Aegis Focker killed him he resurrected as an AI. (Macross VF-X2 and Macross Frontier Light Novel adaptation.)

Anyone want to bet which episode we'll get a new OP?

>>143281902
I bet 14 then.

>>143281970
Mine would be 15 since it would be after the release of Walkure's first album.

I didn't bother with this one, but I just watched it.

It adds a few things, but I guess they had to cut things out to fit the ending in. I wonder if the blu-ray episodes will be longer, or maybe just that first one, since they have the animation already. For the other episodes, they probably don't extend things that much. Unless they do.

>>143282536
>I wonder if the blu-ray episodes will be longer
It will be. Frontier did it with their BD/DVD release by combining scenes from the pilot and broadcast episodes. Delta will follow suit.

>>143280040
really looks like a nightmare though

>>143284214
Actually it doesn't because it doesn't have a nose.

>>143283602
I'm a little curious how well that macross would stand up to the protowhale. We probably won't know that if the kid's song in in play though. But I do hope there is missile spam scenes.

>>143285318
Hmm you're right, I was focusing to much on the wings, which looked back swept, but I realize the lil' drakens wings while not swept back, point slightly upwards. Nevermind then. Lil' draken makes more sense anyway

Do you think Ernest will be actually pretty competent in fleet operations?

I remember him suggesting that king guy wasn't that bright when it came to fleet stuff. And then look what happened?

100/100?

>>143285979
Nothing that happened suggests otherwise. King acknowledged him as strong. He also had cheat hax that let him knew he was coming. Instead of engaging him, he chooses to b-line directly to the objective, avoiding to engage him.

the 100/100 I have no idea what to make of. What just is the implication supposed to be. Noone actually speaks of him as he were incompetent

>>143285979
Ernest losing 100 in 100 was just idiomatic expression. And if you listened he was always siding with the underdog and it doesn't mean he's incompetent. And wouldn't be assigned to Windemere as an instructor if he was a lousy fleet commander.

>>143286161
>>143286173
Yeah, you'[re probably right. I just wanna see the episode!

Who is the biggest idol slut?

>>143285979
>>143286161
It would be hilarious if he was also incompetent, just because Delta as whole seems to suck.

>>143287504
They're outnumbered, face foes in more technologically advanced craft that also includes drones that further expand the gap in numbers. Still they've done okay versus most of them except for Keith, who noone but Messer could even touch, including the other knights. They're fine.

If you wanted to lend sympathy to the Windie side, you'd think they'd threat some disappointment in their lifes.

So far, it's been WIN WIN WIN. The white knight is king, the actual king is a tactical genius, and their war song is all powerful. And plus, they've now got the biggest warship in the galaxy.

Do they really think the public likes bullies? Let alone views them as anything but that?

But, hopefully in this next battle, there'll be normal type Windie soldiers that can be blown up. There seems to be a lot of extras in the Delta camp, so we can expect a lot of casualties, but since there's quite a sizable opposing fleet, we might be able to see more kills made on both sides.

I guess it makes sense for the knights to come after Walkure as a priority, which leads them inevitably to Delta, but maybe it doesn't have to be always like that. They should mix it up so we get more than just drone kills. They're becoming meaningless. And irritating.

>>143288849
Oh, but I just had a thought. Maybe... the whole idea of putting extra people on the macross is so when they're stranded in space (Ragna lost, them having to do hit-and-run battles), there's a crew that could actually function. I remember right at the start, they said they didn't have a full enlistment for 100% function of that macross. But maybe now they do.

>>143288585
Audience likes beautiful and stylish people. That's why Walkure and the Knights are popular while...Chuck isn't.

So, who's everyone's favorite singer in this one? Was there a poll? Or is it too late to judge this given it's only mid-season?

>>143288849
seeing as how arad, tits-pilot, and other guy who talked are supposed to defend ragna, i wouldn't be surprised if someone important dies, not just faceless grunts

So, why do you think Mikumo suggested Heinz had a voice full of life (which Freyja didn't, and she was quite mean about it to boot), but which we've seen comes out as a negative sound on the gauges? You think the protoculture/Epilson tech is actively corrupting it?

But, I didn't get that impression when they were talking about his singing's affect on encouraging VARS. Maybe they've only used that protoculture projector to do their experiments, so they don't have any pure samples for it.

>>143289778
Minoringo then Junna. They're pretty close though in my mind

>>143289960
Eh, Mikumo just thought Heinz sang like someone who put his life on stake. Freyja did the same in episode 1 and episode 8 onwards when she found her reason to sing.

>>143290091
Ah, I see. I guess the full meaning of things is lost in some translations.

>>143289960
>So, why do you think Mikumo suggested Heinz had a voice full of life (which Freyja didn't, and she was quite mean about it to boot)
pretty sure she was just referring to how heinz's singing was actually backed with a strong resolve, compared to earlier freyja who just sing just because. freyja did found her resolve to sing by the end of ep 8 and kumokumo stop being mean to her. it's just kumokumo's tough love really.

>>143290125
or if you take the tough love assumption, it wouldn't be beyond reason to suggest that mikumo was giving freyja the ol JK Simmons "Whiplash" performance: high pressure to produce the finest diamond, etc

Well the original just has a different tone than all other series that came after. Probably because Kawamori had to work a lot with others who didn't let him go full retard. And plus may be good or bad depending on who you talk to.

Well, there was definitely a tonal shift from SDF/DYRL to 7 and later. I liked the idolshit being supplimental to the main story instead of being the main story, if that makes sense.
Plus had some god tier fights and designs, regardless of story. That's why i like it.
>>143291694

>>143291771

No it wasn't. It was still a big part of the main story. It just has a different approach to it since was the first to explore the theme.

>>143291952
It's not like it matters. He's free to his opinion, it's fairly certain he's not gonna like it if hasn't liked anything since plus..

So you hate Zero as well?

I've been looking at Anime Expo's schedule (http://www.anime-expo.org/schedule/).

>Kawamori's guest panel is Saturday at 7:30PM.
>Crunchyroll's industry panel is Friday at 6:30PM
>Toonami's industry panel is Friday at 7:30PM
>Sentai's industry panel is Saturday at 11:30AM
>Sunrise/Bamco's industry panel is Saturday at 3:30PM

Hulu, despite being a sponsor, doesn't have a panel. Harmony Gold, despite making previous appearances at Anime Expo and despite making appearances at relatively chickenshit cons like Katsucon and Anime Mid-Atlantic earlier this year, isn't appearing at AX.

If Kawamori is in the US to drop news of an English Macross deal, it's going to be at one of these. (Well, either his panel, Crunchyroll's, or Bamco's. Sentai and Toonami are on there as a better-safe-than-sorry thing.)

>>143294739
Just curious why do you hate it? It's probably the grittiest and darkest of Macross and there's no idolshit either.

>>143274258
This was actually my OTP in Frontier

>>143294680
Because Kawamori is coming to AX and wishful thinking.

>>143288585
I predict something like when they started mass genociding the Vajra to happen to Windies in the second half

>>143294668
There's more than one. But this would be the Freyja one

>>143294835
Not him but while I don't hate Zero, I think the plot of it is absolute garbage that barely makes sense and it should have chosen between either being about the military aspect or the island culture aspect and not both. It tried to do a culture clash thing and it didn't work at all. Also nobody gives a crap about Shin. He is the most boring Macross MC. I don't think many people care about Sara either. Mao is the one standout aspect of Zero as is Roy, even though he doesn't look anything as cool as original Roy

> It's probably the grittiest and darkest of Macross and there's no idolshit either.
I don't think that exclusively makes things positives

>>143294970
No, it's not. It's Delta. Look at the pic, the title says Macross Delta, not Macross Delta Ginga wo Michibiku Utahime . Also author is Tatsuwo, not Mizuki Shion.

>>143294835
Some of the stuff was just fucking weird. And most of the characters were just obnoxious to me. The fights weren't very interesting either and they just throw Roy Fokker in there for some reason and make the VF-0 which makes no fucking sense to me.

so what do yall recommend?
Macross or Macross: Do You Remember Love?
or both?

>>143295417
Both.And it's not a recommendation, you have to watch both.

>>143295417

ah yeah my mistake. I forget there's that one too, that we haven't seen raws of (I don't think?)

>>143295417
both. You don't really come away with the story of the original macross if you just watch DYRL. And if you watched all of the original TV series, then holy hell go watch DYRL.

But for one reason or another everybody has their least favorite. Or "everything after Plus sucks" is the usual one

>>143298007
Only macross II really. It's noncanon, adds nothing to the series, and is generally lackluster

When it comes to the others, opinions split on literally every series. Personally I would warn you a bit of 7, but that's mostly because I don't like its execution (too many episodes) but I wouldn't tell you to avoid it. I think more people dislike zero than 7.. and there's even some that dislike plus. Seriously though, none are horrid and to be avoided.

Jesus, this is officially the oldest show I've ever watched. Seeing how animation used to be back then is neat though. Black girl is cute

>>143298626
TV series had a low budget too, which doesn't help. It has aged really poorly. The thing is though, there's actually quite a bit of talent involved here, and they show you what the could do with this era's animation in Do You Remember Love, which in contrast had quite a large budget.

So, how much of a delay will they have to suffer before they can jump to Ragna again? I'm picking... 20 mins. That sounds about right. And remember, Al Shahal fell in 15...

>>143300997
In theory NUNS should detonate ruins as soon as they detect defold of protoculture ship. So I'm not sure how it is going to play out.

>>143300997
Nah, it's probably going to be a tense five minutes before they can (turn their ship around) and jump back. That would make things tense and interesting. I wonder what song will play when they do. Something new?

>>143301406
My bet is on Ichido Dake, they'll change the OP soon anyway.

Am I the only one thinking the fighters will choose to go in via foldboosters, leaving them without Elysion for a while? .. .hmm no that'd probably piss people off more than not

Movie Ranka is OK while Show Ranka was obnoxious. Manga Shoujo Ranka is more similar to Movie version. Except she really gives up Alto pretty quickly when she notices Alto's and Sheryl's understated love and coincidently meets Brera that day. After that is basically OTPs rather than triangles.

This. Zero's only worth it for Roy and Mao. Mao got a sad ending because she lost her sister and first love (not much of a loss because she moved on, but her sister certainly was).
