I'd be totally fine with that if they lay a good for foundation for it. I'm not really expecting that to happen though.

Solo wing Mirage when?
<<Buddy...I've found a reason to fight>>

>>144584076
Because she's not. She was a very promising character in episode 01 but her potential was never developed. So far she's only prospect, the show teases but never delivers. I'm sure this will change in the future, but right now Mikumo is just a mirage.

>>144584355
Next episodes are going to be about her

>>144584355

>>144582774
They confirmed a while back Bogue wouldn't be involved in romance

>>144584076
Mikumo is lovely but best girl? No way. She doesn't get the screentime for that.

>>144584737
Well, when I say Sivil was easily best girl in Macross 7, do I have to justify it with screen time? Because she didn't have that much. But, that doesn't alter my perception of her.

That's the reason I think KumoKumo is best girl. Because from what I've seen, she's easily the hottest and most intriguing girl on the show.

>>144582866
I thought you wanted to creampie Bogue. Make up your mind

Hope we won't keep listening "Delta 04! Delta 04!" from Mirage ever again. Some new lines would be better.

How naive. Waifuwars will continue till the very last episode and then even few weeks after that.

Waifu wars never end. You can literally have Freyja and Hayate (just an example don't get your panties in a twist) get married at the end and Miragefags would still be "Hayate made the wrong choice. He doesn't truly love her!"

>>144588803
More like Yellow Squadron did nothing wrong.

His interest in seeing the galaxy came about in response to Sivil showing it to him. It doesn't mean that he's in love with her, since obviously Basara's only true love is music, but it is why Fire Bomber breaks up not long after Geppelnitch is defeated and why he becomes a wanderer and never returns to City 7.

Clever.

I was re-watching Frontier to see episode focus on girl and romantic focus. I can say this:

>Episode 1:
Both of them, edge on Sheryl who is the First girl.
>2:
Ranka on both.
>3:
Both, edge on Sheryl.
>4:
Ranka, but not romantically.
>5-8:
Sheryl focus, romantically and as character.
>9:
Neither
>10:
Ranka focus, but Sheryl/Alto focus.
>11:
Both, Sheryl edge
>12-14:
Ranka everything.
>15:
Both, more emphasis on Sheryl.
>16:
Both general focus, Alto/Sheryl romantically
>17:
Ranka focus.
>18-20:
More focus on Sheryl in general, Sheryl/Alto gets an edge.
>Episode 21:
Focus on Ranka, but breaks down Alto/Ranka
>Episode 22:
Sheryl. Alto/Sheryl.
>Episode 23:
Ranka, but there's no Alto/Ranka
>Episode 24:
Sheryl. Alto/Sheryl.
>Episode 25:
Both girls. Muh wings. You know who wins.

The focus was spread thin, but the Alto/Sheryl bond came out as more developed. Most Ranka scenes were trying to get his attention and failing or be jealous of his relationship with Sheryl. Also Sheryl has early lead, falls a little in the middle, and regains it back quite fast.

>>144596470
honestly, the whole is more interesting here. Sheryl is the winner because her interactions with Alto is more meaningful in that way.

>>144596815
I agree. I usually like "bickering" relationships but I feel nothing for Hayate and Mirage. Their relationship is bland as fuck. While his relationship with Freyja is fucking magical.

>>144597190
Well technically Hayate and Freyja also bicker and a lot. But their bickering is playful and fun (the kind you see in couples) while Hayate/Mirage bickering is her not putting up with his attitude and vice versa.

>>144597190
Sheryl and Alto bickered a fair bit. I think the last time Hayate and Mirage really bickered was in episode 5? They're pretty much mellowed out now. With him and Freyja they don't really bicker as much as do playful teasing, and that was alive and well as late as episode 13-14. Hit latest attempt in 16 produced a quite different outcome at that.

I was reading a magazine and the contents had me like "damn, jesus fuck". Mirage would've probably beniffited from reading it.

Signs your crush is in love with someone else

1. The friendzone
One of the signs he is in love with someone else is that he will treat you as just a friend. You try to flirt with your crush when you get some alone time with him and he continues to treat you like a friend. If he’s in love with another girl, you could be dancing in a racy negligee and he wouldn’t even notice it.

2. The Eyes Tell All
Check out his eyes when his love interest enters the room. When he makes #eye contact with her, the air appears to light on fire.

If he’s in love, he looks at her very differently than he looks at anyone else. One of the signs your crush is in love with another girl is that his #eyes sparkle and light up whenever he is near her.

3. He’s so Happy
Another one of the signs he has fallen in love with another girl is that he radiates happiness whenever she is around him. He’s elated because she is in his presence. You will notice him frequently flirting, blushing, laughing and smiling at her.

4. Is It Hot in Here?
One of the most common signs that your crush is in love with another girl is the hot sexual #attraction that they share.

Anyone within a 100 foot radius can tell that there is something special between them by the way they interact. If he’s in love, he may barely notice the sexual desirability of other girls. To him, she is the only girl in the room.

5. Always Together
Another one of the #signs he has fallen in love with another girl is that he’s spending the majority of his time with her.

Well, damn.

>>144599175
It felt like she took notice of this in the last episode because of these very issues.

>>144599175
I'm sure she did read it. That's why she noticed it.

>>144599175
These pretty much all apply, though 4 was only relevant last episode.

>>144599521
Yeah, I included number four tho because of the "special attraction" not so much as the "hot sexy attraction".

>Anyone within a 100 foot radius can tell that there is something special between them by the way they interact. If he’s in love, he may barely notice the sexual desirability of other girls. To him, she is the only girl in the room.

>>144599175
>>144599175

Yeah, I mean when you think about it, it's very obvious. Plus Mirage has shown to be very observative.

>>144599521
>>144599639
Half of four applied to 16, the other half seemed relevant in 14.

So do any of you guys have the link to the high quality version of Walkure Attack?

>>144599983
https://www.nyaa.se/?page=view&tid=832386

The whole triangle really takes me back to my teenage years.

I was thinking, as for what we've seen so far, do you think Mirage should persevere with her crush on Hayate or do you think she should back off? Here's the thing, I'm not even asking with the triangle is mind anymore. Now I'm asking with Mirage's "character likeability" as interest.

Look at it this way. So far Mirage's character hasn't exactly been received in the best way. Lack of character development, low self-steen, angsty personality, etc, etc. I can't help but think that if she were to pursue the triangle she'd be setting herself up for disaster.

Nobody likes a "homewrecker" (i use it very loosely here) who tries to get in between the relationship/blossoming relationship/love of two people. Her character is already suffering from lack of likeability within the fanbase, to have her push her romantic intentions forward would be like setting Mirage on fire or throwing her to the sharks. Almost like "here you go, hate her!"

I may not be a Mirage fan but I certainly don't want to see her hated (she's already disliked and attacked enough as is). At this point if I were Kawamori and truly cared for my characters, I'd have her back off and instead work on her personal development.

What are your guys' thoughts?

>>144600274
I don't think the fanbase will hate her. More pity or feel sad for her, because if she does confess now she will 100% get rejected by Hayate.

>>144598364

The thing that made Alto/Sheryl interesting to watch was the fact that both of them were a variation of the tsundere archetype; and their romance was both coming out of their own shells to acknowledge each other as they grew over the course of the series.

>>144600274
I think there might be a few episodes of hmmm? coming for a while now, because I expect Hayate and Freyja to enter a bit of crisis with regards to resonance. I don't think this will seriously question the triangle end (although maybe to some)

It seems obvious to me that her big theme will be to overcome her difficulties with flying. Her changing path to something else would be to anticlimatic to her arch, so its likely rather to be her coming to peace with herself and thus getting rid of some mental barriers. But romance wise they've said this show would avoid getting muddy, so I don't think it'll go to deep into that.

>>144599175
Did Hayate start liking Freyja even before episode 16 and he only realised it now?

Not that everything by word applies to him but it's a very close call.

Soundtrack when?

>>144600748
2 months ago

>>144600274
Honest answer: Mirage has no chance in this triangle.

People wouldn't hate her, they would feel sorry for her like they see that she is more of a secondary character than a main one.

>>144600672
I always took it more as Hayate falling in love without even realizing it. Freyja became special to him since the day he met her but he never really inspected his feelings on a deeper level because he's dense AF. Also he never regarded her as something akin to "sexual attraction" like most couples are depicted in their starting point. Like you know how it's mostly "Wow, they're cute/really attractive!" and then comes the actual feelings.

HayaFre was the opposite. First it was "feelings and understanding" and then the "attraction of the opposite sex".

It's a play on the classic "I always knew I cared about you and that you were important to me but Holy Shit,you're actually really cute and I think I might be in love? Now I can't keep my eyes off of you" that's triggered by a small event.

>>144600881
>Mirage has no chance in this triangle.
>says the scared Freyjafag for 5 months now

>>144600274
The only ones who "hate" Mirage are insecure Freyjafags who despite heavy pushing by Satelight can't seem to lock up her man

>>144600969
I'm a Mikumo and Kaname fag. I don't give a dam about your triangle. I've just written what I see.

>>144601030
No, the hate for Mirage comes from people who wanted Milia 2.0 and is unhappy she isn't Milia 2.0 (yet) They complain she seems to have only been added to be part of the triangle while not pulling her weight.

>>144601149
>people who wanted Milia 2.0
Do they even exist? I know lots of people hated Minmay, but they didn't like Misa too much as well.

>>144600933
This pretty much. They're relationship pretty much grew out very naturally from their interactions together. They had a pretty heavy natural affinity right from the getgo, but this was never really physical attraction until very recently.

>>144601076
I understand that Freyjafags are obnoxious at this point, but miragefags are fooling themselves. As a Reina and Mikumo fag, and not caring about the triangle I can see the issues.

>>144601230
Everyone complaining about her lack of development? They clearly only think being a badass pilot would count as development for her, and when she hasn't delivered on this front yet, they hate how this aspect was 'betrayed'

Ugh. And here come the Miragefags again, that instead of actually contributing a good argument for their girl winning, they just shitpost and act like 12 year olds.

It was fun while the amicable discussion lasted. Let's move on to something else now. I have no intention of further feeding immature shitposters.

--
So, Mikumo. Do you guys think she's a songstress or that she's actually some weird protoculture/hybrid thing?

At first I thought she was something akin to what Heinz is but now I'm more inclined to her being a hybrid of some sort. Also this might be a stupid observation but her hair shape looks like the ruins that were uncovered in episode 13 after they were blown up (with all the edges that kind of look like angels)

>>144601076
>>144601266
>I'm not a Freyjafag I-I ss-swear!

Greatest Macross Delta meme since Freyja winning

>>144600933
I see. Now that you said that, it makes more sense.
Especially this part
> HayaFre was the opposite. First it was "feelings and understanding" and then the "attraction of the opposite sex".

It's obvious they had this special bond, and Freyja start crushing on him around episode 9 (if I remember correct) but with Hayate I always took it as just 'that person I'm the closest to and I have very fun with' like yes, I can label them as friends but after what Hayate said in episode 16 'not really a friend, or comrade or teammate but someone that makes situations really crazy and is fun to be around to' made me think he might have not realised how he truly feels about her, romantic or not.

Mirage's question didn't make him question it further till way later on in the episode as we saw and he didn't seem like he is rejecting this feeling but rather embracing it although there is some hesitation when he tried to reach to her but held back. I read of it as he might be afraid of not reaching her always, like she can go out of his grasp.

>>144601305
Nevermind, I misread it and saw Misa instead of Milia (two times).
Still those expectation are unreasonable. Milia's character was more about enemy with completely different culture and morale betraying her duty because of love. Her being badass pilot was a secondary trait.

>>144601385
If I had to bet, then some protoculture thing that for some reason doesn't remember shit of her life before and for another reason she awoke recently. I'm sure we will get our answers in the upcoming episodes as she seems to be the focus of the 2nd part now.

And yeah, anons before noticed the hair thing=ruins. I didn't save the pic but I remember someone made a collage out of it.

I agree with this. They had a special intimacy and later they realized they might like each other 'that' way.

>>144601542
Mikumo being a type of human protoculture would be so fucking cool. Have the next 2-3 episode will most likely be focused on her and I am beyond excited.

Correct me if I'm mistaken but it was

17. Scattering on Stage
18. Sense Emergence
19. Eternal Song

Have we gotten anymore episode titles beyond that?

>>144601385
Modified protoculture. The intended operator for the Sigr Valens. Probably was found in cryosleep by Lady M. Maybe a godmother to the windermerean race. Doesn't remember much because memory loss, reminiscent of Mina Forte. Will be interesting to see what happens when Walkure activates the ruins next episode and if she interfaces with it somehow. Guessing it'll take her out of comission temporarily like in episode 10

>>144601431
After the epiphany, he looked flustered when Arad complimented his choice of present. He definitely sees Freyja in a new light now.

>>144601702
You are correct for the episode titles. And from what an anon said in the previous thread, then episode 17 "Scattering on Stage" will be about her but BTFO by Heinz from a magazine episode summary the anon read.

Not yet. We should get them next week when the new magazine issues will be out.

What's even more interesting is the chemistry of her hair. So far we only have three different concrete clues.

1) During the anime sequence, her hair crystalizes/solidifies and sparkles and have some sort of biowaves flowing reflecting.

2) On that official art drawn of Mikumo and her hair, we see various life forms growing from her hair. From plants to a fishes fin. Along with various triangles breaking.

3) On the Blu-ray cover Mikumo's hair is obviously relfecting bubbles, as indicated by the bubbles on that art box. This correlates with her underwater themes.

Mikumo has a punch of correlating themes. It's as if she's fucking related to everything.

>>144601702
From everything we know, the protoculture were all very human looking. That's why all their child races are very human looking. As for episode titles, I don't think so. It'd be normal for episodes to be found in some magazine by now.

Who would be the godmother of Freyja's and Hayate's children? Mirage or Mikumo?

>>144601872
To clarify: I don't think we've seen the titles for anything beyond 19, I mean.

>>144601782
I like your theory/speculation. If she was a modified protoculture it would definitely explain a lot of things about her. Her memory loss, her distant memories of the ruins, her strong fold ways, etc. Also the whole resonating with the ruins in episode 10 that triggered a type of memory resonance between her, Freyja and Heinz.

If Mikumo does turn out to be an ancestor/modified protoculture I have to wonder if she'll deem the Windies an unfit race to keep on living and therefore bringing about their end. I hope that doesn't happen. Perhaps living as a normal human and interacting with Freyja could be a positive influence on her if she does turn out to be the final boss.

>>144601867
Yeah, Mikumo so far has been shown to relate to nature/space so she's definitely something akin to a "galactic being" of sorts.

>>144601995
>if she'll deem the Windies an unfit race to keep on living and therefore bringing about their end.
Considering how much of a boner she has for Freyja and Heinz, she'll just give them the galaxy.

>>144601995
She'll just choose Freyja is her true heiress. Heil Empress of the whole Galaxy who will unite all with the love of apples and pop music.

>>144601867
>Mikumo has a punch of correlating themes. It's as if she's fucking related to everything.
That's the interesting part. Mikumo so far has shown to related with everything. Her motifs and themes range from water, to space, and now wind.

>Also the whole resonating with the ruins in episode 10 that triggered a type of memory resonance between her, Freyja and Heinz.
The weird part about Mikumo's memory from that though, is that it's space related. What Kawamori has in stored for us in regards to Mikumo will be crazy. I'm positive everything we have guessed so far is too obvious, for some reason I think we are missing a detail so small. Kinda like the apples, but I can't think of anything. Each new info we get, throws off another. Nothing really adds up

Is it really that so hard to believe that some people just aren't invested in the half-baked love triangle?

We already know Freyja and Kaname's reason for singing. Freyja want's to sing for peace, and Kaname believes that someone out there adores her songs.

Any theories or idea on why Mikumo sings? She gave Freyja a hard time about this. What could her reason possible be?

>>144602514
What if she doesn't know and is trying to find her answer? She seems to live vicariously through Freyja sometimes.

>>144601995
I don't see her suddenly becoming sort of doomsday dealer because of some loyalty to her own dead race. The protoculture for their part made the Windermereans like they are. Strong, fold wave potent, immune to Var, short life spans. I've been saying this many times, but this just screams to me that they designed them as a weapon. We already know that this is something they would consider doing because that's what the Zentraedi were. Except they never managed to finish them perhaps, because the protoculture themselves died out. At any rate, it just fits that they were a weapon that the Protoculture intended to use in the war that destroyed them. The whole connection with Var is especially interesting because its a mind control weapon, and the war that destroyed them was between loyalist and mind controlled zentraedi. It just fits.

As for Mikumo herself, I feel Kawamori explored a similiar idea in Macross 30. While Mina forte isn't outright stated to be a protoculture (preserved to the present while inside cryosleep in ruins), but rather a 'ancient ouroborean', the novelization of the same game does actually call her protoculture survivor. Mina was essentially like a part of the ruins systems, a machine part as she puts it. Mikumo might have been something similiar. Though she gives sort of priestess vibes in her dream sequence from 14, it could still be that she's just a neccessary weapons component for the Sigr Valens (which does require a wind singer to activate its most potent systems)

>>144602448
Can someone give this a proper translation. A few interesting points. The first is that they say the roles "might" change. So it's not definite, and just hype by magazine? The second is that Mikumo mystery will finally become clear, and they specially mention floating on water. Interesting. So next episode is Mikumo's big reveal and final episode according to this magazine -_-

>>14460251
>What Mikumo sings for
I don't think she herself knows yet. Wasn't she was musing about not knowing the reason during her very first nude scene on the mountain?

Maybe that was why she was so hard on Freyja - Freyja had at least SOME clue all along but just couldn't make the connection, whereas Mikumo has nothing at all and she knows it.

>>144602589
Roid seems to be very interested in Mikumo and Freyja, moreso on Mikumo. This leads me to believe that while on his investigations on the origins of the Protoculture he came unto some information about Mikumo (which was shrouded in mystery, perhaps only stated as a being living between time and space, or of an urban legend of sorts). He probably connected the dots after seeing how strongly the ruins in episode 10 reacted to her.

I'm sure he'll try to get his hands on Mikumo or try to turn her over to the windies side. As for Mikumo actually accepting, I think it's a possibility that she would choose to go on her own violition to find out more about her past and all the memories she has.

>>144602632
>-_-
>>>/facebook/

>>144602589
The thing is we all know Kawamori has had the concept of Mikumo since DYRL. However he waited all these years to reveal her. The whole "Zero OVA's" seems like a set up for the whole protoculture theme.

Mikumo might not go doomsday by her own will, I have a feeling a Sara Nome type thing might happen with her. Something or someone is going to control/manipulate her and accelerate the destruction of the universe.

>>144602589
Nobody says that protoculture had all identical traits. Mikumo could have been of a subspecies that resembles the Windermere like Mina Forte did with Earthlings.

>>144602632
>Main vocal exchange!? Kumokumo in a piiinch!
>At the same time s the song of the wind of Windermere is growing in power, Mikumo appears to be undergoing a change. Her power of song is no longer rising!? At this rate her role in Walkure might swithc with Freyja? What is happening to Mikumo? The mystery of her submersed naked in water will also become clear....!?

>>144602771
Roid knows SOMETHING.

I'm betting that, if Chaos's plan goes smoothly this ep, it'll be due to Roid letting them get away with it in order to observe just how Mikumo manages to affect the ruins. Of course, he'll have the knights on standby to interrupt things when they start making any headway, and they might even make a grab for Mikumo should she prove useful.

Or maybe Roid's poised to try to tempt Mikumo away from Chaos's side should interacting with the ruins awaken more of her memories. That way he gets to have his cake and eat it too - the Starwind cluster will be firmly establised, without having to risk Heinz (if he gets Mikumo to take Heinz's place powering the Sigr Valens).

Genociding an entire species because their military leaders are being dicks would be the exact opposite of what Macross typically goes for.

>>144602423
What's interesting with the ruins resonating in ep 10 is that we got a Heinz <-> Freyja connection. Heinz got Freyja's memories of something burning, and if the hole both girls saw was the dimensional crater, then Freyja got his memories of looking into it.

However, at the very best we only got a Heinz --> Mikumo connection. (Again, only if what both girls saw was the crater). Mikumo didn't give Heinz any memories at all, even though she was caught up in the resonance alongside Freyja. What could that mean?

>>144602997
>Her power of song is no longer rising!? At this rate her role in Walkure might swithc with Freyja?
The real question is how will this after Mikumo? Singing is her life, it's the only thing she knows how to do and is good at. She takes great pride, and confidence in her role as Walkure, and her extreme passion for singing is evident.

I wonder how drastic her personality will change, because this will certainly have an impact on her. I'm sure a sad song is coming up.

>>144603275
I always took that scene to shows 3 things from their pasts. Freyja's town burning. Heinz seeing the hole. And then an image of what looks like the galaxy from Mikumo. She could be very old and have lots of memories locked away within her. In a sense it didn't really give us any hint about her at all yet

>>144603720
I think it'll be more like Mikumo will grow weak after her encounter with the ruins in tomorrow's episode. However during this encounter, she'll get even more visions of her past. Because of this she'll temporarily abandon Walkure and head to the ruins for some answers thus leaving her share of responsibility to befall on Freyja's shoulders. Whether Freyja will live up to the responsibility is something we'll have to wait and see.

As for Mikumo leaving it seems very possible. While she does take her role seriously, recently we've been shown that she's growing restless to learn about her past so her up and leaving seems very viable.

Freyja wasn't the bastard son of the King, who's whole future was changed because of the war. Freyja while her parents dying was terrible enough in its own, she was able to leave the planet and pursue her dream at signing THANKS to the war?

>>144603275
That scene is open to interpretation though, until clarified. I think they all saw a glimpse of each other memories. The girls commented on Heinz (the hole), while Hienz spoke about Freyja's because he was shocked that it happened on Winderemere. Nobody commented on Mikumo's since it was a galactic background, and they still want to keep her mysterious.

I'm actually quite positive they all shared the same set of visions since Mikumo commented in the next episode that the wind singer was able to analyze every aspect of her mind, which she did not like.

Hienz, Mikumo, and Freyja shared a special connection. The full details of that connection is not analyzed yet though, as neither of them knew what the cause was and blamed the other party for what happened. Mikumo blamed the wind singer, and hienz/roid/the old king thought it was Walkure.

My guess is that it was the ruins themselves. They have a life of their own.

>>144603956
Freyja might have lost her parents in that war. Even if she didn't she definitely had some traumatic past as we saw in the flashback with burning house.

>>144603920
Freyja hersel said her village didn't see the worst of it, unlike those who had to fight against NUNS.

>>144603920
Freyja was 7, and wasn't involved in battle while Keith was 12 and was forced to stain his hands fighting. The psychological impact is different.

Besides Freyja is Jesus-tier who loves everything, Keith is a good but normal kid who was affected by this shit.

>>144603968

He even made that hand reaching/waving shit Freyja and Hayate do.

Honestly Mikumo might have been a reincarnated life form with connections to the protoculture. I'm positive the whole jelly-fish myth on Ragna, has a connection with Mikumo. After all, her ability to breath underwater amongst the jellyfish appeared that very episode. In fact, Mikumo might have been a jelly-fish all her life, and while observing the starry skies, yearned to be human because she has unfinished business to do. The reincarnation cycle, must have left her without a memory.

Her hair resembles a plane, the birdhuman, the ruines, every symbol on windermere, and jellyfishes too.

>>144604137
Okay, I might be ignoring the real impact it might have had on Freyja, but regardless she didn't have it anywhere as badly as Keith. She isn't an angry person out for blood.

>>144604212
That would be Aquarion EVOL level trolling.

I hope Kawamori goes for it.

>>144603569
I never really understood this scene. Mikumo doesn't refer to herself as person. Nor does she know the reason she sings

>>144604266
Freyja was a civilian who didn't see the battle. Keith was in the heart of the conflict, forced to fight and he was older to know what was coming on. The impact was definitely different on him.

This >>144604192 used to be Keith. The parallel is pretty obvious. He was also lacking a sense of 'family' as Hayate did and he didn't know what purpose he had in flying and such until he realized he had to protect Heinz. Being a soldier at 12 years old in a really fucked up war can change a kid.

OK listen. I'm a Freyjafag and all but you cannot compare the trauma that Keith had vs what she's been through. Keith was 12 years old when he was sent to war. And now to just fly around. He killed people. At the age of 12. Can you imagine the implications that had on him?

Yes Freyja also suffered as well losing her parents and being an orphan and all that jazz. But it's not the same burden that Keith shared. Also Freyja is now in the middle of the war, but she's older now and she's not actively killing anyone like Keith was forced to do.

However their different circumstances are what make both Keith and Freyja strong. No one is denying that.

>>144604212
You're like you're onto something, but then you read way too much literally into it when you try to make her literally into a jelly fish.

Mikumo is not a jellyfish. At all. She might be a genetic progenitor to all the races of Brisingr cluster. And like Mayans reffered to the AFOS as the Bird human, maybe ancient ragnans saw Mikumo with her special hair, and concluded that she was a jellyfish god.

>>144603933
>As for Mikumo leaving it seems very possible. While she does take her role seriously, recently we've been shown that she's growing restless to learn about her past so her up and leaving seems very viable.
Really? I just can't see Mikumo abandoning Walkure at all. There hasn't even been any scenes where she is eager to learn more. Just her questioning herself as to why she knows this stuff.

>>144604067
Perhaps Bogue woul be a better comparison since they are the same age. But even then he grew up among people who fought against NUNS and saw how the school became decimated. Different backgrounds, different feelings and reactions.

I don't even think young Freyja knew what war meant, that people are angrily fighting each other and it leads to destruction and death, perhaps she more experienced it like "a disaster" like an earthquake. It was something that happened to them. Sadness was real, directed anger not so much.

>>144604397
Mikumo being a jelly fish isn't absolute, but there are some obvious connections.

>>144604393
This. Freyjafag here too. Freyja's case is more similar to Bogue, than Keith's. Keith is probably being set up to have UNDERSTANDING with Hayate because they are alike, deep down, one is just traumatized.

SHINPI

Common reactions to trauma: detachment from other people and emotions, cannot tolerate closeness or emotional expression even within his family, irritability, anger, guilt, self-blame, overreacting to minor irritations, loss of interest in friends and hobbies, pessimistic outlook on life, being cynical and distrusting of others...

Sounds like Keith.

I thought Frontier became irrelevant by this point.

>>144608341
You're just beyond retarded. You still can't understand the difference between hatred caused by traumatic past and the one based on ideology.

>Also 16 is not 12.
By the way Cassim was 16 too. Herman was 26. Yet they are in this war fighting against NUNS too. And also there were millions kids even younger than 12 during WWII. Lots of them were seriously traumatized. But somehow they didn't start another war or revenge genocide. Gee, I wonder why?

>>144609141
>And also there were millions kids even younger than 12 during WWII. Lots of them were seriously traumatized. But somehow they didn't start another war or revenge genocide. Gee, I wonder why?
Mostly due to nukes, and a world order maintained by two superpowers. It's really funny that you bring up WW2, a war manufactured almost exclusively by people who were butthurt about WW1.

>>144608869
>Sounds like Keith.
And like Gramia, Roid, Heinz, Bogue, Herman, Cassim, chinese twins and probably few thousands of Windermerians who fight in this war.

Are your brains so damaged by chinese cartoons that you can't understand the difference between them and Freyja?

Freyja is the flattest main character in the show. She gets the most screentime, but her behavior hasn't changed much since episode 1.

>>144609394
I swear, someone on the Delta staff is obsessed with drills.

>>144609552
Honestly, while the plot of Delta is decent. All the characters suffer from lack of actual character development. Can't judge fully yet because the series hasn't ended, but after 16 episode all of them are still 2 dimensional.

A lot of characters are super underdeveloped when compared to some, but even the most developed isn't really developed.

>>144609296
>WW2, a war manufactured almost exclusively by people who were butthurt about WW1.
Check who was in Central Powers. And check who was in Axis Powers. Surprise, surprise, some countries managed to calm their butthurt after the loss in WW1. Also there were more than 20 years between the wars. Shitton of Axis soldiers couldn't even walk during WW1 yet they hated everyone around them. So don't you think the reason of war (both WWII and Windermerian) is not about child trauma, but fucking ideology?
People always have the choice if they want to become South Korea or North Korea. Windermerians couldn't make the right decision. And this is exactly what Kawamori tries to show us with comparing Freyja and Knight's causes and reasoning. This is one of main points of fucking Delta. You must be completely brain dead to not understand it.

Actually those two don't get any significant development in anime. We mostly know about them from manga, so that doesn't count.

>>144610717
Delta is a multimedia project. Read the mangos, nigger.

>>144601867
Why is she so hot in that pic? Is she even obtainable? Or too out of everyone's league by miles? Is that why she's not in the triangle of triangles? Hayate wouldn't have a show of capturing her attention.

>>144610502
You're delusional for thinking trop = character development

>>144610776
Not him, but "multimedia" is a terrible excuse for not developing major characters in the main story. It should be able to stand on its own.

>>144610776
You can't honestly expect most viewers to purchase the mangos for a few characters who have no appeal in the anime.

>>144600881
I'm pretty sure he is not asking Mirage winning the trianlge.

>>144610002
>NUNS used a dimensional eater on their planet
>could use another one at any moment
Windermere is case of genuine desire of self defense, retard. They felt genuinely threatened by NUNS. Declaring war on the whole galaxy is another story, but going against the NUNS in the cluster? Self-defense.

>>144601305
>They clearly only think being a badass pilot would count as development for her
Why else Mirage can develop for then? she pretty much not gonna win the triangle, and if she still can't be a badass pilot, then she's just useless and piontless.

>>144611404
*what else

>>144611207
Not this shit again. Just because you don't like them doesn't mean they have no appeal.

>>144610174

She matures, but her actions are more consistent throughout the story than Hayate or Mirage. For better or worse those two are completely different from what they were in episode 1.

>>144611401
This, pretty much. Only retards can argue this point.

Roid used a dirty move to manipulate a mourning kid and the population during the child's coronation.

>>144611552
Mirage acts exactly the same. As does Hayate.

You're just saying she's less angry with Hayate because she got to know him, but there's zero difference in her behavior.

>>144606290
NUNS genocide isn't revenge, it's justice.

Not sure if you're genuinely retarded so here's your response.

Gentlemen, how do we kill the Roid

>>144611762
When Cuba had Russian missiles and became a Soviet headquarters, USA tried to fuck it up too.

It's the exact same shit. It's self defense to secure one's territory by kicking out the enemy's bases installed there. Now the galaxy conquest plan is another thing.

>>144611825
We don't, Keith will eventually.

>>144611891
Except windermerians explicitly stated reasons for their war. It's not about self defense or feeling threatened.

It's so ridiculous that I think you don't believe in shit you wrote. It's probably blatant shitposting for the sake of shitposting. Kill yourself.

>>144611915
Hot. Any Mirage one?

>>144609758

The galaxy conquest plan WAS the plan. I mean, I don't know if Gramia was going for it but right now, it is looking like Roid was planning for this the entire time.

Gramia was only interested in the cluster. Most of the windies don't give a fuck about what lies outside their planet. That's actually a point about their culture in their manga. Freyja and Roid are exceptions, for better or worse.

>>144609758
>All the characters suffer from lack of actual character development.
How is that different from any other Macross series?

I think Delta's doing better than, like, 7. People at least knew who the characters on the Delta and Walkure squad are. Who even remembers that there were more than two people in Fire Bomber

All the characters are the same. Don't let anybody fool you. They are just faces masked with tropes. Hopefully by the end of the series Freyja, Hayate, and Mikumo can have a lasting impact on the audience. As much as Sherylfags are annoying, Sheryl stands out of macross because she was fleshed to the maximum. We saw every possible side of her, she was introduced glamorous, had a tough fall, and was built again. Not every character needs to follow that exact pattern, but she left an impact.

I like Delta so far, and when the series is over I want to tell people to watch Delta because their are character in thier that are amazing, and the pot is awesome. Along with telling anti-delta to fuck off, because they missed out on awesome characters and plot .

I don't want to say, "oh watch Delta, nice plot and has a cute genki girl who does abc, or oh watch delta, has a beautiful shinpi girl who sings"

I want the main characters Hayate, Freyja and Mikumo, along with the secondary characters to be characters that are known, without even watching the series.

>>144612216
Hitler actually had charisma, Roid hides behind a nine years old, using his coronation to push his plan because he knows the nobles and merchants were against it. They couldn't tell the recently crowned King they don't like the idea.

>>144612307
(I'm pretty sure Freyja is leaving a generally good impact)

I don't know why people say Hayate is underdeveloped. It's incredibly smooth and understated but it is there. He's not the same character he was in episode 1

>>144612033
Don't play yourself. A Mikumo one is more likely.

>>144612146
I'm pretty sure he has some bigger plans. Conquering the whole galaxy is either distraction or it's required for some kind of huge experiment.

Let's play a game to celebrate ReiRei's birthday.

Describe Reina's character without saying what she looks like, what kind of costume she wears, what does she like or what her role in the show is.

Describe her to your friends like they ain't never seen Macross.

The more descriptive you can get, the stronger her character.

>>144612471
Calm down, Heinz and Keith will defect to Chaos.

>>144609019
Krang, Shedder Bebop and Rocksteady

That is waifu/husband poll?

Keith is only going along with the plan because he thinks it's what's best for the planet/Heinz. Once he figures out Roid has his own agenda, he'll get the fuck ou.

She is lesbian.

They are two dimensional. Let's but it this way. Have you ever watched an anime and you loved it, and it's character at the moment and time. You liked, and you reped your favorite character etc. However after the anime ends, and the hype dies off you slowly forget about that character. Compare that to an anime that might have ended, yet their was a character or characters filled with so much depth, they transcended the two dimensional anime world and left a lasting impression on you. None of the characters in Delta have achieved that. We still have a lot of episodes, so it's still possible but none of them there yet.

The only person who might achieve this is Freyja, and the reason for that is they focus on her a lot and neglect the massively huge cast.

It's interesting because Kawamori stated he didn't want a repeat of Frontier with just two idols. But when you think about it, Walkure are just two idols.

He is obviously against it. He challenged it in a courteous way when he never objected his father's plan in the past. He lowered his head and kept his opinion. I think someone needs to punch him to realize he has to stop acting like a distant aloof knight and begin to be a big brother.

Nah, there will be a coup with Roid and the Grey Men on top of it. Delta will intervere and Heinz and Keith will defect.

>>144612653
>But when you think about it, Walkure are just two idols.

No way, Kaname is memorable and popular underdog who got enough screentime and an actual storyarc on her own. I agree Makina and Reina are filler, though.

>>144612307
Yeah this is how I feel. I like the show but as it stands now, I can't defend it because I do recognize that the criticism is valid.
I do hope Delta can emerge on its own without being treated as another Macross II by its fans once the final episode airs.

>>144612653
He didn't want a repeat of Frontier with the triangle focusing on two idols (admittedly he also said he didn't initially want a triangle at all) and wanted to do a singing group. However, this is not an actual idol anime so obviously all of them aren't going to be the focus of the story

>>144610356
Hayate went from a wandering douche to an inspiring pilot.
Freyja found her reason to sing.
Messer, the strict-by-the-rule type, found that he should enjoy the present, sacrified his life doing what he loves the most while protecting his waifu.
Kaname got her confidence boosted thanks to Messer, she considers herself Mikumo and Freyja's rival.
Roid went from a protoculturefag pacifist to a protoculturefag space hitler, refusing peace negotiations and declaring war on the whole galaxy. whether this change came from Gramia, berger, anyone or even Roid himself is unknown.
Heinz just wanted his brother to notice him and now he abandoned the idea. He's resolved to lead the war and get it over with.
Keith youlittleshitsaveyourbrother went from a cheerful kid openly caring for his cute little otouto to a serious, vengeful (I will kill all earthlings) and distant young adult, he still cares for Heinz but hides it pretty well.
For a show not character/triangle centered with 25/26 episodes, I'm pretty satisfied with the cast.

I can say a memorable, or at least memorable to me, moment from pretty much every character in Delta. Can't do the same for F or 7.

Yes, even Mirage. Episode 16's ending was very well done

>>144612494
Reina is a 15 year old girl who with great compter and hacking skills. She has a strong passion for singing, and is willing to risk her life for a cause. Reina's personality style switches from kuudere to tsundere quite frequently, to be more specific she has a kuudere like speech, with tsundere tendencies. So I guess that makes her a dere hybrid? Reina cares a lot about her friends, and the place she considers home. She's very non-judgmental, and emphasis being who you are regardless of society's rules.

>>144612494
She's a possibly Zentraedi /u/ bait who is Supah Hackah and paired with Makina. Doesn't talk a lot but when she does it's usually poignant or something funny. She essentially serves a similar role to Veffidas except she has more than 3 lines in the entire shwo

>>144612826
>However, this is not an actual idol anime so obviously all of them aren't going to be the focus of the story
This is actually very questionable. It is an idol anime though because the plot revolves around the idols. Without the idols, a huge chunk of the plot is missing. Yes it is singing, but the idols fall under that. Not only that, the idols themselves are what is being sold. Priority should be taken into characterizing each of these girls and building them up substantially. No matter how you think about it, the idols are the main characters of Delta.

>>144612826
>>144613449
The second opening focuses on the idols over the triangle. Look at the difference of the cast drop from the first one. Hayate and Mirage are out, Walkure are in with Freyja center stage.

>>144613449
>This is actually very questionable. It is an idol anime though because the plot revolves around the idols.
First of all, it's also a mecha anime as well as a romance anime. It's all three.

Second of all, if you want Kawamori's take of an actual real idol anime, AKB0048 is right over there
