Yeah I disagree with Kawamori giving up his interest in Macross. Delta is merely what the current audience of Japan wants. At least from most reports from there. As well as a large number of international audiences. But now that Macross is free of the previous HG restrictions, we may see a different take on series in the future.
I enjoyed it overall. You can see the hint of the story the writers were trying to tell under the glee & glam that is Walkure. Both movies do an excellent job of improving on Delta TV. I think they hamfisted the Megaroad-01 but could see Misa trying to keep humanity from making the same mistakes as the Protoculture.
Pluses:
New Valks
Max
Character development
Minuses:
Overall story.
Walkures Music didn't impress this time around. Forgettable is how I would describe it.
Snagged one from AmiAmi. Damn didn't expect that or them closing so fast on a world wide launch. I do wonder if the supply line issues will impact this release?
