BOOOOOOOOOOOOORING
Why is Mirage so boring when her granddaddy Max is the greatest guy to come out of this franchise?
>>140461371
What is this? I thought Macross was a super serious war drama.
Her smug will be replaced with tears as she loses horribly as the episodes go by and Mirage starts melting faster than the Ice Age.
>>140460959
This is your King(female) for tonight
>>140461443
The original Macross was *mostly* serious with some tidbits of comedy here and there but this entire arc felt like it was taken right out of a Saturday children's cartoon.It's great.The DYRL movie feels more serious until the war is stopped using the power of J-pop.
>>140461593
I was taking the piss out of serious wardramafags, Anon. Macross is fucking silly but cool as shit.
>>140461593
Pretty sure he was being sarcastic anon
>>140461371
There has to always be a straight man of the group. Also Mirage may not be cool but we really don't get enough serious soldier women types often, certainly not as main characters
>>140461644
>>140461707
Dammit. Now I'm embarrassed.
>>140461148
>every episode has her do something that looks evil and then the camera pans out and it's something mundane
My favorite part of SDF were the three Zentraedi bros who infiltrate the Macross but then end up being total Minmay waifufags and then find their own girlfriends.
They were like the most relatable characters
>>140461148
She dies/Breaks
Mirage steps in to sing
Which knights will fly with delta squadron and walkure. They feel the wing like hayate and Freyja
Reminder that if Mikumo is a robot, I'm not going to be surprised

Oh cool I didn't know they made a Mechwarrior anime.

That IS the joke, anon.
>>140461932
>tfw their last appearance in SDF was them on the verge of losing their jobs
>>140462298
That's the joke actually. FASA originally licensed all the Macross designs from TCI, who really didn't have a right to sell them, which caused a shit-ton of lawsuits in the 90's.
>>140462492
They did lose their jobs and started the toy stand while living like hobos
>>140462158
They ejaculate glitter.
>>140462465
Don't look at me, I don't know things!
>>140461148
Remember all those normal folks who get to compete with gods on a somewhat even level, by means of specialized, disciplined effort? Like Kenichi, Zenkichi, etc.?
What if Mikumo was one of those all along?

She's anima spiritia

Is this the correct order watching Macross 7?
TV Series>Encore OVA>Movie>Dynamite 7 OVA
>>140464036
Seems so. You can just look up release dates on MAL though.
>>140464156
>visiting MAL
>>140464036
Personally I watched the Encore OVAs before ep 39 or 40 of the series since they seem to take place during that time. But yeah, that watching order is correct.
>>140461932
Are those the dudes who were feeling all tingly watching Minmay do the Miss Macross performance? Just watched that episode, good guys.
>>140461443
>What is this? I thought Macross was a super serious war drama.
This show is about marketing, thus seriousness is out the window. Even scenes that should be "grim" have been made sort of upbeat and positive-feeling because that is what helps sell merchandise. Clothing, shoes, personal accessories, housewares, and food items from Macross Delta are being sold in japanese stores now.
>>140464611
Yes
>>140464776
First of all, that was obviously sarcasm. Second of all
> Clothing, shoes, personal accessories, housewares, and food items from Macross Delta are being sold in japanese stores now.
I wish.
I do think they are selling things like that of Frontier
which macross is your favourite?
>>140465471
they are have their moments, since the series fluctuates from "meh" to "10/10" on the drop of a dime.
>>140465471
Frontier for best song in the series.
>>140465471
DYRL
>>140465471
Absolutely 7 is my favourite. But original is still the best.

I don't know. I love the franchise in its entirety and especially the mythology it has been able to build up.
So in celebration of 4/20 I made my friends, who are non anime fans listen to Walkure songs while blasted.
Koi Halation the war was our favorite to listen, and I recommend you guys listening to it too. Its on a another level.
>>140466146

I liked Koi Halation the War as well.

>>140462023
>Mirage taking over for the Center Nova.
I don't think so. We all know that if something happens to Mikumo, Freyja will be taking her place.
If Mirage is going to sing it will probably be to encourage Hayate to ride the wind in the absence of Freyja.
Man I fucking love Britai

Freyjafags are the new Rankafags?
>>140467022
Do you have some sort of fetish, anon?
>>140467022
Why can't there be a race of tiny people?
>>140467022
Because there are already giants, and those are specially engineered for war.
The Protoculture, for all the shit they do, do seem to make sure they don't repeat the same shit on different planets.
One thing about full sized Zentradi and why we don't see them much is that full sized Zentradi eats a lot because of their size. Keeping them human-sized makes the logistics of feeding your people easy. They only macronize people if they need the size to do shit, like rearing macronized farm animals.
>>140467022
Oh yeah because that's what we need, the same enemies again.
Kawamori isn't really a fan of doing the same direct things. Like he may reuse a plot element but never an entire storyline for Macross
>>140467022

I'm getting sick of this as if Freyja and Mirage aren't both pretty great girls. Actually none of the girls are sticking out as bad so far

What's great about Mirage? I'm not a fan of Freyja either but at least she's inoffensive.
>>140467635
the hell that is the macross license getting passed around like a bong on 4/20
>>140465471
SDF. Even with all the QUALITY. ESPECIALLY with all the QUALITY.
>>140467635
Just embrace it, anon.
>>140467635
SDF-1 had a fuck ton of low-budget stuff in it, most anime was like that back in the day, with missing frames and tons of stock footage and animation errors, people just tend to forget that due to nostalgia goggles. Gundam 0079, Space Battle Ship Yamato, and Harlock often had the exact same issues, though I think Macross and Gundam were probably the worst when it came to animation out of the classics.
>>140467856
Hikaru's glassy eyes looking straight into the camery make it even funnier.
>>140467921
>tend to forger

I mean I didn't expect 60FPs but jesus it's even worse than Gundam.It's really good so far, Minmay is great but Max is best girl
>>140468037
No, the quality remains around the same. That guy is a loser don't listen to him.
>>140467921
No, most shows animation never got as bad as Macross did in the middle. That only happened because the show damn near got canceled, but then had a sudden surge in popularity so they only only didn't cancel it, but extended it. That's why the show shows post-war shit.
>>140467993
I love me some Gundam too man, but DAMN
>mfw watching DYRL after all the neverending QUALITY of the originalAlso are Misa, Hikaru, Minmay and all the MegaRoad crew dead, since apparently the ship just disappeared?

It makes the show funnier, it reminds you that you are watching a silly anime and it isn't real life.
In Muteki Choujin Zanbot 3 though, no amount of sillyness is going to detach you from those tears.

>>140468542
Yeah something I realized when I started re-watching Macross last night was how easy it was to sit down and just enjoy it, reminded me of how much I hate most modern TV shows since every thing has to be dark and heavy and full of drama. Made me remember why I started watching anime in the first place.

Macross Delta comedy everyone. Truly a masterpiece of uniqueness.
>>140467188

What's wrong with chasing cats?
Actually I liked that scene because it shows Hayate isn't a total stick in the mud like Alto or a one-track mind Basara and is actually willing to do silly stuff like play around with kids to get petty revenge on seacats

I don't think so. IIRC there was a guy dressed like Britai in Macross 7 who's supposed to be playing him in a movie or something.

One thing I always have a problem with in Kawmori love triangles is that he tends to make one side of it do something ridiculously stupid to make them less likable in my eyes. I'd appreciate it if he took some lessons from his 0048 days and just focused on making everyone likable more than anything else
>>140468991
Still a step up from the panty chase ep in Frontier.
>>140473825
>he tends to make one side of it do something ridiculously stupid to make them less likable in my eyes
That's not Kawamori's problem if you see them as unlikable. There will be those who will think otherwise.
>>140474018
>That's not Kawamori's problem if you see them as unlikable.
That's not true though. I liked Ranka very much despite liking Sheryl more until around about 2/3 of the way through the series when she started really degrading hard as a character. This is one thing the movie totally avoids by the way because they don't have that period of Ranka being used as a tool and her angsting about it
>>140473517
see:
>>140472215
Misa won.
>>140474068
>That's not true though.
Of course not. Seriously that's just your personal perspective and it's completely subjective.

>>140474118
I was responding to the people saying "MIRAGE BTFO"
>>140474068
Sheryl was a loser from the start to the end. The ending was just the author's fanfiction in my eyes. Ranka best.
>>140473825
It's usually been in line with their character though. Consider:
Minmei being selfish, immature, and not knowing what she wants? She's a 16 year old girl who, unlike what you see in most modern chinese girl cartoons, actually acts like one.
Mylene liking Basara despite him being a massive prick? He's a rock star who represents an escape from the boring life that her overbearing mother has meticulously planned for her. Basara's behavior also makes sense when you consider that Basara himself is basically a retard savant whose single area of proficiency is music.

>>140474294
I wasn't referring just to Macross though, I meant in "all" Kawamori love triangles, Pic very related
Also I don't care how much sense it makes, any functioning human being would have given up on Basara for someone who actually loved and cared for them for who they were. Mylene's persistent feelings for Basara make no sense when he doesn't give a fuck and the audience knows he doesn't give a fuck. I mean, at least Minmay never directly insulted Hikaru or intentionally blew him off

Stopped reading there. Talking to you is pointless, like talking about rationality to a woman.
>>140474632
>Stopped reading there.
Why? Because I'm making a point? I know why Basara doesn't like Mylene but why on earth would she continue to care about him to that extent that much? The only way it makes sense if you just say "well she's a tsundere". It's not in line with her personality
Do you think there are other tactical sound units other than Walkure?
>>140474479
>this entire post
You have never interacted with another human being. I have been Basara'd and I have Basara'd a shitload of people, I don't give a fuck if someone "cares about me", they don't make me happy.
>>140474741
Depends on how widespread this Var Syndrome bullshit is
>>140474698
Because Basara is happy and free, and she wants that. That never changed in 50 episodes.
Are the enemy Windermerians causing the Var outbreaks or is it unrelated? If unrelated, why did they attack in episode 1?

Yeah well Frontier had the normal Frontier manga and a Ranka spin-off manga too at the time (Macross F Gaiden), and we know how that went.Not that I think Freyja is definitely going to lose.
And before anyone mentions the Sheryl manga, that one came out a year and a half after Frontier ended and it (loosely) followed the movies storyline and it's objective was to be fanservice to the AltoxSheryl fans.

And the BreraxRanka ones. It was mainly for the female fans of the series who liked both pairings.

Go to hell, Harmony Gold.
>watched SDF last night
>want to move onto plus
>people sayt I should watch DYRL first
what the fuck, this is too much of the same shit. Are there any references to DYRL in Plus? I was going to watch DYRL right before I watch 7
>>140476861
wait a week or two before DYRL.
>>140476861
DYRL makes a ton of changes to SDF, and it's fucking beautifully animated.
It's just one movie, watch it faggot.
>>140476861
DYRL is like one whole film
Just watch it
>>140476861
Remember to watch both the OVA and the movie of Plus. Even though both are shit. Same for Zero.
>>140476974
>Zero.
there is no movie for Zero.
>>140476015
Radically different
>>140476433
>yfw I was totally okay with Brera/Ranka and then the pull a Cagalli out on us
>>140477093
I meant it's shit. Only good for the tits.

Actually Ranka "Manga" was a one shot story in an anthology collection about her getting lost in a shopping mall and Alto saving her. She didn't actually get an ongoing manga like Freyja or Sheryl did. But Minmay is the star of Macross the First by Mikimoto manga, which is the retelling of the regular Macross (though we don't know if she'll 'lose' because Mikimoto is a Hikaru/Minmay shipper. The military cake got blow the fuck out by the young idol who won Minmay Voice contest in his other big manga Macross series, Macross 7 Trash).
>>140477455
well, that's because you've shit taste.

It ends after the war is stopped. That's where Kawamori wanted to end it in the first place originally. Then jump back to Flashback two years later. The rebuild shit was the channel making them stretch it because it was popular.
>>140476861
It was one of the most iconic scenes in anime.

Kaifun was OK in DYRL. He was just a supportive manager with unrequited feelings for his cousin.
>>140476861
Wait a little until you watch DYRL, besides it's only a movie and it has god tier animation.
>>140475515
>Misa's never been popular
She's #1 in my heart!
>>140476861
It can wait. But be sure to watch DYRL before 7 like you planned to. The movie changes some designs that the rest of the series keep (if you ever wonder why Guld is green, DYRL is the culprit).

Excuse me, why are people saying this? What good is waiting going to do? He should watch that shit now.
>>140475459
>>140475515
Holy shit, I forgot how cute Misa was.
>>140478540
the ending for those two was so bad.
I miss the old days when Zentradi had round ears or slightly pointy ears and Zolans were the ones with super long elf ears. It was one of their distinctive features.
>>140478491
>Hikaru wasn't immediately proposing to this
>>140478684
Well the girl deserved it
>>140478694
Well the inbreeding probably changes body structure but Mirage's ears aren't as pointy as the Zolan at least if I compare it to the one in your pic

And were they rapists, too?
