Macross Delta 04 Hype Thread

>>14150015

Why does that VF look like it's stuck in a corridor?

>>14150030
Launching craft through narrow tunnels while using foreshortening to emphasize the phallic shape has always been a mecha anime tradition.

>>14150035

I'm not talking about that, I'm talking about how one wing appears to be stuck in a connecting corridor and not have the clearance to actually move.

>>14150047
The wings are folded under, because folding them up is so 1941.

It seems to be a fully enclosed catapult. Vertical stabilized folded out flat, wings tucked under. No landing gear because it's sitting on a Gundam Base.

Ah, that's it. Thanks. I thought the lower part of the wing was a shadow and that it wasn't folded at all.

next ep is the one where mirage wins the bowl

Who does Mirage even pilot for?

They don't seem to have done a good job of reinforcing which pilot is for whick idol because i remember fuck-all.

>>14150266
Mirage-Mikumo

>>14150266
So far we can only assume that the pairings are:

Arad-Mikumo
Messer-Kaname
Chuck-Reina
Mirage-Makina
And now Hayate-Freyja

>>14150298
Isn't it Arad-Kaname because they're totally doing it?

>>14150278

They talk about it in the first episode, with Mikumo ditching Mirage. We also know Chuck and Hayate's idol pairings at the very least.

>>14150308
Yeah but in the very same episode Mikumo rides Arad's VF.

>>14150069
yes, thanks kawamori.

>>14150069
The best part is he's named after ketchup.

>>14150354
Mikumo is just Sheryl-level gigaslut who'll ride anybody.

Mikumo has narrow eyes.

Which means Mikumo is up to something, impure, or not a good person.

>>14150301
Fuck no. Kaname obviously has the hots for Messer.

I hope there willbe some cool valk scenes

>>14150854
I smell an extremely butthurt Rankafag.

SV-262

legs transform more or less like a VF-1

wings are on the shoulders

main gun is attached to the back(in batteroid/gerwalk mode) and belly in fighter mode. main gun is likely to be over the shoulder like Zent/Meltran armor suits, the Queadluun-Rau and Queadluun-Rea

arms tuck in between the legs in fighter mode. forming the back and belly of the fighter. in gerwalk and batteroid. the tail fin is on one of the forearms.

head is probably like the VF-21/22

Messer has that Nyannyan chick longing for his dong.

>>14150015

>>14151144
>OP clearly shows Kaname-Arad as canon
No. They're only shown together because they're the leaders of their respective units. Kaname pays more attention to Messer than any of the other men.

>>14151232
>No. They're only shown together because they're the leaders of their respective units.
If that was the only reason, the OP would have had them just by a console and not walking down a hall and clearly showing Arad trying to be smooth

>>14151200
Is Delta even confirmed as 2 cour yet?

>>14151572
Yes. 9 BDS. 3 episodes each

>>14151563
This delusion is something else. Glad I'm not an invested Macross fan so I don't have to hang in this threads if I don't want to.

unfortunately I'm cursed to Gundam threads, but at least they aren't Getter

>>14151582
I don't think it's canon. Actually I'm leaning to the idea of a Kaname-Arad-Messer secondary triangle personally but I need more viewings to be sure of that one. All I'm saying is that it is teasing

The real question is, are the subs that we're going to be getting actually going to be accurate? gg is almost T-N tiers of incompetence so far, so who knows if they're going to flavor the subs to the point where we'll get "Only Orphenochs can use Faiz" tiers of stupid.

gg may not take their job seriously, but they're definitely not incompetent. While they've taken quite a few liberties with the dialogue so far, the actual content of the subs has been pretty accurate.

>>14151847
See, the thing is, they're a lot like what we saw of Hayate at his job in episode 1: they're lazy assholes who rarely bother doing anything useful, and seem to deliberately go out of their way to annoy people while they do it, but undeniably skilled. They know their shit when it comes to translation; on the rare occasion that they put out non-troll subs, it becomes clear that they're some of the more talented fansubbers out there. I just wish they'd do fewer joke translations and more real translations.

So was Minmei. And Mylene. And Sharon.

If anything Hikaru lost. 7 is shit.

>>14151960
>Minmay
Didn't love Hikaru. Got what she wanted: her glittering stardom and her self realization as artist
>Mylenne
Nobody won the Basara.
>Sharon
No, it was always Myung. Both 7 and Plus were one girl two guys triangle too. Isamu-Myung-Guld, Sharon was never part of it, she was a villain.

And You forgot of course Sara Nome. The main heroine always wins, unless she isn't into the guy like Hikaru, and Hikaru was an obstacle to her true love. Mirage can only win if Hayate obstaculizes Freyja's real love.

>>14151987

> they don't count because they weren't in to them
> or because nobody else won either

Keep telling yourself that. Minmei and Mylene lost. The fact no-one else won in 7 doesn't mean that Mylene didn't also lose despite being the main heroine.

>>14152005
Did you even watch SDF or DYRL?

I'm not the only one here who thinks that the prototype bird for Delta will be not!FALKEN, right?

>>14152005

Yes, she was the main heroine and lost. Stop trying to divert the point.

>>14151987
Sharon was part of it.

She was a copy of Myung's mind. Sharon loved Isamu. Being modified with a UN military Ghost AI. She wanted to show her love by fighting Isamu to the very edge of his ability as a pilot, and then killing him.

>>14151978
Sharon was the cover girl though

Given they are a feudal society their lifespan matches that of Humans pre-20th century.

Era Life expectancy at birth in years
Medieval Islamic Caliphate 35+
Late medieval English peerage 30
Early Modern England 33–40
1900 world average 31

Having Humans come offer a uplift would be beneficial but xenophobes didn't like the changes to their society as the aristocracy would be replaced with democracy.

>>14152862
Citation needed. Freyjas Windemere may be feudal but it doesn't look like quality of life is bad. This is clearly a alien lifespan issue. Also why do you assume that jets are the only things they took not medicine or other advances? I They still ship exports

>>14152884
>alien lifespan issue
Freyja is a teenager not an old woman. In Windermere obviously they marry off girls once they are fertile.

>doesn't look like quality of life is bad.
If you aren't a peasant. Windermere is a backwards monarchy.

>>14152862
Who says that the Windermere "years" are the same as earth years?
Different planet, different system, after all.

>>14152812
>>14152814
There's been a distinct lack of R34 for Delta so far. Macross in general seems to get the shaft (har har) when it comes R34, though Frontier had a bit.

>>14152892
Where is your proof? This is most likely a lifespan issue to create drama

>>14152399
Nope,I just wrote it while thinking of SEED[\spoiler]

>>14152862
IIRC, the reason why those life expectancy numbers are low is that they include a large amount of children who died before adulthood, bringing the average down. Once you got past it, you're probably going to make it to 50+.

>>14151816
>>14151814
If anything its you people who are flat. What type of person she is and the type of character arch she'll have, has been clear from the very first moment. I happen to like characters like her.

Not everyone is an SDF fag that gets a boner from the last name and personally I don't give a damn who her family is unless it plays a part in her development (as it probbly will in this case).

It also helps that I really like her design and looks.

>>14153119

>>14153121
Yeah pick out one line and post it out of context

>>14152892
>Monarchy
>Therefore they have terrible quality of anon
Anon, its the future. They have access to spaceships and do export apples.

If anything, the short lifespan is most probably not due to the monarchy and more of some local disease that they could have stopped if they accepted NUNS help but instead some asshat is blaming NUNS for making their king "ill" and using that to wage war on the humans. Or its just simply their lifespan.

I suspect the whole transmitting and receiving fold waves thing is pretty bad for keeping themselves alive, what with accidentally influencing your friends into killing themselves while playing at the playground and other possible stuff.

>>14153119
>If anything its you people who are flat.
How? Because I'm not jerking off over a character who hasn't gotten much character development yet?

>>14153132
Because you dismiss a character you don't care about and have to come up with dumb excuses for why others would like her.

But I've bitten enough bait for today

Will Bandai release a 1/72 of Messer's VF-31 or Keith's SV-262 because it's better than Hayate's

>>14153134
I'm dismissing her character at the moment because it hasn't developed AT THIS POINT at all. The reason people like her at this point are dumb excuses. Personally character design and the hint at a dumb archetype isn't enough for me.

>>14153137
They plan to release kits of all the 31s, so they're likely to do the same of the Drakens.

Kawamori knows what makes for a glorious concert.
I expected this after 0048, and he didn't fail my expectations.

dis freyja fuck up her first aidoru concert?

Anyway, with Messer being under the effect of Var. I think there will be the inevitable episode where he succumbs and shit goes down.

This. If anything, many pre-modern cultures didn't treat you as an adult until you were OLDER than how it is today. In ancient Rome, you were truly an adult only at 30 years old and not a day before.

Of course that didn't stop them from sending 16 year olds to wars or marrying girls even younger than that but that's a different thing altogether.

>>14153492
Nah. Wasn't perfect or anything, very obviously nervous and messed up the choreography a bit, but she didn't embarrass herself or anything and the audience didn't mind her screw-ups at all.

You think Ranka is now the NUNS ambassador to the vajra or some shit?

>>14153518
Stop trying to force Frontier into the show, the cameos are the only thing you're getting.

>>14153518
You posted this on /a/ as well and it's still a retarded idea.

>>14153518
The Vajra left the planet they were on in both the TV series and movies.

They are somewhere else. Beside, the only way that could happen is if the Winderemeres win their way to the center of the galaxy, and attacks the planet the Frontier fleet colonised, and then this leads to the Vajra reacting to.. well, Ranka and Sheryl running to the shelters and screaming for help?

>>14150015

I still can't get over how dumb the whole idea of the Walkure are. I mean, it's not that there isn't precedent (Jamming Birds) but I don't recall the singers actually being in the fight themselves and running around/superjumping in the middle of a pitched battle.

It kind of takes you out of it. You realize that no-one's going to get seriously hurt in the battle, because a well-timed shot would splatter one of the girls all over the sidewalk.

>>14153388
>If any future series talks about the events of Frontier, they will just say something like "The conflict with the Vajra". No specifics.

This just your guess. We might as well meet some characters from frontier. If one o them is michael that woudl mean that movies are canon.

Which is true of anyone. Including soldiers and even people in Variable Fighters - though it might need to be a bigger bullet.

Because shield drones exist.

Not providing a form of protection for them is like not giving your infantry bullet-proof vests before sending them out to fight.

>>14153556

True, but it just feels especially bizarre and a step away from the vague nod to realism that Macross had before. Like, these girls apparently have pinpoint barriers and massive hologram generators, but they're still running headfirst into a warzone!

Shit's crazy.

That's because you're too retarded to realize that they're effective on the field to directly suppress a Var outbreak. And do you honestly think their suits don't provide them some form of protection?

>>14153561

>>14153561

It's no more crazy than any other emergency aid work. Which is all it is. So long as they know and accept the risks, which they do, then it's fine.

>>14153567
They could just sit in backseat of vaks.
Valkyries engaged in hand to hand combat with zentrandi mechs in ep1 so they woudl be very close nevertheless.

>>14153573
And they got their drones to shield them from all that. So what fuck are you complaining about?

>>14153576
>GO GO V plays in the distance

>>14153579

For a start, why can't they just sit in the Valkyries? They clearly don't range *that* far from the Valks, since they'd be defenseless. Can't they just ride in the backseat? I assume that being in a giant mecha is more protective than running around outside.

>>14153573
Those things kill everyone else as well.

They are military sponsored idols sent to deal with space rabies. They are a Tactical Sound Unit.

Them being on the field is justified because they need to be close for their singing to work effectively. The drones does provide enough protection for bullets from Zentradi machines, and they are flashy as fuck to distract the rabid folks so that they don't attack civilians.

>>14153578
>They could just sit in backseat of vaks.
>For a start, why can't they just sit in the Valkyries?
Have you even considered that could affect their singing? They're not trained pilots and are subject to heavy Gs save for Mikumo.

>>14153578

They wouldn't be able to help people in valkyries though. They'd be able to sing, but not much else. And the valkyries in question would be tethered to their position, halving their forces.

>>14153591
This. Walkure is the next step in Wild Weasel technology!

>>14153585
because using drones are easier than using valkyries, not everyone is basara

>>14153592
Modern era valkyries have inertia dampeners.

>>14153598
They've had inertia dampeners since the VF-1. And that still doesn't make them immune from heavy Gs.

>>14153601

It's what made Hayate throw up for one. Alto and several others can all be seen suffering during difficult maneuvers throughout the franchise.

>>14153601
I thought that only frontir introduced them.

I mean look what hppened to poor Guald.

>>14153585
Culture of all kinds distracts Zents. The dancing and lights and cute outfits are as tactically significant as the singing.

>>14153596
The flashy show is probably also part of what triggers their anti var. I guess it's not just the singing itself.

Also they are idoru and they need to be seen. Be a bit more open minded, its a fun show doing fun things. No need for MUH REALISM all the time. If you can't enjoy that then as said before, DELTA aint for you/

>>14153607

Zentradi aren't the only possible victims. Even if they were, helping people caught in the middle is part of their remit. And those aren't all Zentradi either.

>>14151100
Wings are not on the shoulders, they stay attached to the fuselage. The two arms are stowed folded at the elbows, the left arm is aft and attached to the bottom shoulder, the right arm is fore under the piece with guns on it which moves onto the right forearm.

>>14153606
That was because he had to push the Omega 1 beyond its envelope. Otherwise, he wouldn't be able to match up to the X-9.

>>14153604
Like I said it still doesn't make them immune to heavy Gs.

>>14153606
If the original VF-1 didn't have any inertia dampeners the sheer atmospheric friction would tear itself apart.

>>14153630
MUH DICK

>>14153630
Man, it really has the Israel Aerospace/Sukhoi/Dornier lineage down pat when it comes to transformations.

>>14153630

>>14153630

>>14153630

>>14153645
no

>>14153630
>>14153630
god bless that high as fuck old man

>>14153630
I feel pleased I was so close to figuring this out completely, although i definitely couldn't predict the torso transformation. This is definitely Kawamori's most ambitious transformation and totally restores my faith in him after his last few abysmal to mediocre battroid designs. Finally no more lazy wings hanging off the back.

Pinpoint barrier

>>14153702
Plenty of valks didn't even have shields, they're a relatively recent design addition. Plus these fighters don't even need aerodynamic controls with the kind of thruster power they have.

>>14153702

If your shield is destroyed, you probably have bigger problems. If you only got the shield destroyed, you could just not transform.

It's ISC Inertial Store Converter. Keep up with acronyms.

>VF-24

There is no VF-24, in fact the YF-24 Project was discontinued. The third YF-24 prototype then became the test frame for the improved ISC. Hence the VF-25, VF-27, YF-29, YF-30 and VF-31. To mass produced you need to give up the plans to NUNS. Except for VF-27 which Galaxy kept from Earth. Then again they used leaked LAI data on the YF-29 for the four engines of the VF-27. The YF-27-5 had only two engines.

I would like to point out that the SV series was originally made by the three-country consortium of Israel Aerospace, Dornier, and Sukhoi, according to Macross Zero.

so I was looking at some VF stuff on google and came across this, some guy's custom Vf-25+19 custom (it actually transforms and everything) so I began to wonder if in the cannon macross has done this,like for say a desperate last ditch effort type situation where they threw together vf parts to see what works.
