>>Are they the salvation of the mecha genre?

If you have a mecha show that has idols, school setting, yuri and moe in spades you'd better run away because there is simply no way anything good will come of it.
Now, small doses of those elements can be useful and funny to have in a mecha show.
But if you sacrifice the mecha part of the fucking mecha show for some stupid lolis then you're betraying the show's mecha(nical) nature.
As a case in point Delta was fucking shit because we had barely 1 full episode out of 24/6 (I even forgot how many episodes this fucking failure was) of mecha content. This is not the way to do it.
>>
>>14855079
They are neither. At best, they're a distraction that can make a good show passable, or a bad show horrid.

If their music is actually good, then they might add some flavor (I liked May'n) but this is rare with modern trends in Japanese music.
>>
>>14855079


No. Because all of those interests take center stage when introduced in a show. It's not so much about the mechs or the world setting - or even character development, but just needless pandering to the mouth-breathers that like to rub-off to 2D.

This is why shows like Delta and RoboticNotes are considered homosexu/a/l trash.

Walkure Attack is basically the first anime related album in 5 years that went platinum and which is not JAV Live or Nana Mizuki. Those are exceptionally good sales.
People just don't understand how much money went into music production. It doesn't have Yoko Kanno, instead it has lots of professional and high profile composers. Most of them are working with big jpop/electronic groups and not your usual anime trash. List of people behind Walkure's song blows IM@S and LLshit the fuck out.

This, a lot of 2016's mecha shows were generic copies of generic moe,sol,and LN adaption anime.
The mecha genre is dying because instead of producer's and creators adding in these elements when needed they do it to capitalize on trends.

Mecha anime can probably work with these elements when the creator gives a shit, but most recent examples are just using them as otaku bait to boost sales.

Then these otaku get latched to the franchise/genre bringing their shit taste with them and the market shift forces studios to make content that panders to stupid stuff.

Or some of these otaku become anime producers themselves, but because most of what they're influenced by is mass-produced low quality anime they make more of the same.
This is way different from the earlier days of otaku culture because back then being an otaku wasn't just about liking anime, it meant you liked anime primarily, but with other geeky interests like movies,games, and books as well.
Also the people creating anime didn't have that much to take influence from within the medium, so they looked elsewhere.

This problem isn't even exclusive to mecha anime alone.
The entire fantasy adventure genre has been corrupted for at least a decade, I mean when was the last time we got a fantasy show that wasn't some cheap LN adaption, or a harem, or used a boring world that stole mmorpg and lotr elements while adding a gimmick?

Anime is nowhere near as experimental as it uses to be outside a handful of studios.
And even when those studios not making risky stuff they need to crank out more shitty shows to keep themselves afloat.

Tl;dr Following trends and unoriginalty is killing anime

I don't think frontier is bad at all, in fact I love it, but I can't say it's good.

The story plays it way too safe and is extremely predictable at times.

Mirage is a perfect indicator of all the retards infesting mecha community.
Mirage was never anything and never had any potential. She is just a shitty unimportant character and only reason she drew any attention on /m/ is retarded memes.
What's the difference between Reina and Mirage? Both are bland and have little to no development. People complain about them a lot. But no one ever talks what Reina should have been and how her character was wasted. Mirage fans always wanted memes, tropes and predictable patterns for their character and they didn't get them. These are their complaints.

More like the life support of the genre.

Mecha just doesn't have the LCD appeal anymore. But that said, idols aren't going to reinvigorate the genre.

I actually think Macross Delta could have been on the right track, much like Frontier was, but the pop music element seemed like a distraction. Frontier's idol mess seemed more organic because it was gradually built up.
>>
Moe is the "thing" right now because there are so many sad people wanting to relive their sad high school crushes in Japan and there will always be more people who like jacking off than there are people who like robots.

It's a generational thing. Generations have things they like and genres come and go. Westerns, for example. Grandparents and great grandparents liked them, but with few exceptions it is not a common genre these days. It occasionally is resurrected with great appeal, and that's fantastic.

Consider the "sword and sorcery barbarian fantasy" of the eighties, or the slasher thriller films of the eighties. Consider the hard boiled detective stories of the 30s and 40s. Genres come in and out of popularity, but they do have people who will always be fans, and there will always be resurgences of popularity.

>She is just a shitty unimportant character

This is the problem though, Mirage unlike Reina had expectations to meet.
Her inclusion in the jenus family is the cause of that.
If mirage wasn't a jenus no one would care, but the fact that they made that connection only to do nothing with it just goes to showhow much the staff cares about the macross.
Then there's also the fact that despite being a participant in the love triangle she's treated as a background character.
No one cared if her arc would've been predicatble or not, we just wanted them to do something interesting with her character.

She actually was a pretty good pilot
The conflict in 7 didn't go for the UNDERSTANDING angle, so the other part is irrelevant

Ultimately, Mylene had a very important role in 7; she was the one that made Fire Bomber work to become famous. Had she not, the rest of the series wouldn't have happened. Mirage had no such role.

But that's wrong from chronological release it's
SDF/DYRL- Minmei
Flashback 2012-Minmei
Macross II- nameless idol and that blue-haired chick.
Plus (movie and OAV)- Sharon Apple
7-Fire Bomber and other groups and singers
Zero(OAV)- no idols
Frontier- Ranka and Sheryl
Delta-Walkure

Saying that Macross was never about idols or was more focused on mecha is acting like the minority is the majority.
>>
>>14881276
>Because that was a minor character.
Just like Mirage.

>Max and Milla were famous for their piloting skills and being a symbol for human meltradi/zentradi relations
So you're mad that she wasn't an exact copy of her grandparents?

Wendy Ryder is not a main character and it has five minutes of screen time over the entire series.

Ishtar is not a idol shit.

Sharon Apple is not a main character.

Saying that Macross was never about mecha or was more focused on stupid idol shit, holy shit, idol shitposter, you are only acting like the idol shitposters are the majority.

Keep trying! But preferably at its weeb shit!

>Wendy Ryder is not a main character and it has five minutes of screen time over the entire series.
Not a character but an idea to show the importance of music in Macross.
>Ishtar is not a idol shit.
Was considered the idol representing Macross II.
>Sharon Apple is not a main character.
She was the main antagonist.

Saying that Macross was focused on mecha from the start is a special kind of delusion. One would think that you're one of those delusional Robotechfags, who always cries about muh Macross Plus

>Idols
Idols in mecha usually leads to insert songs. That shit is dope. No problems with that.

>SoL
My favorite mecha series ever is pretty much as SoL. Patlabor is amongst the greats and it has plenty of SoL elements. SoL != CGDCT you know.

>School Setting
Yeah, this doesn't necessarily make a good mecha. It doesn't stop it from being one, but I've rarely seen cases where mecha actually benefits from being set in a school.

>Yuri
Same thing as the above. Doesn't mean it makes things worse, but doesn't necessarily make it bad either. Plus, Yuri tend to be the main focus nowadays, like that series that's airing that was delayed recently? That's a Yuri with mecha added on, not a mecha series. Nothing against it, just not my thing.

>Moe
People going moe=bad or moe=kawaii uguu anime girls are fucking dumb. Moe can be found anywhere. You know what's fucking moe? Fucking G-self is moe as fuck, look at that fucking cute face. Fucking look at it.

>>14855094
For real, I wouldn't mind seeing LL idols in shit like Build Fighters or something. I've never watched it, but I think it'd be cute seeing them interact with Gunpla.

Delta should have been about idol mecha pilots in school with yuri and moe.
Girls und Variable Fighters. But no SoL elements, it must have plot.

Also I really hate Minori's new haircut.

You're free to complain Makina and Reina, or Mikumo, or Arad, or Keith, or Roid or many other characters.
Because that's part of the reason why Macross Delta is bad: 90% of characters are bland.

No.

Try:
battles in every episode
model kit support
space politics
hand drawn robots
good designs
war intrigue
mystery, noir
rugged veterans
hot-bloodes heroes
normal non-moe heroines

I long to see a new show that fulfills those.

Good job guys, you almost fit in.

Battles in every episode is something only ADHD kids would want so they can discuss it next day in school with friends. For absolutely anyone else it's obvious this requirement will hurt narrative, plot and pacing. It would leave less time for characters and make those battles less impactful or completely meaningless.
