  1. Am I to understand that of all the Protodeviln who are still alive at the end of Macross 7, all of them, members of a natively incorporeal species, are still inhabiting their stolen bodies?
  2. I admit we were only given a few seconds of footage showing it, but I thought when the Star Shrine on Ragna was destroyed, the feedback completely shut down the Wind Shrine on Windermere, hence why the lights on Windermere's tower went out. I thought we were supposed to take Mikumo's flashbacks as the genetically-inherited memory of her Star Singer template from thousands of years ago (which of course from a real-world perspective genetic memory is bullshit, but sci-fi stupidly loves to use it). The bombing of Carlisle is a bit confusing to me. If Wright's superiors wanted him to bomb Darwent, and they managed to remotely seize control when they realized he was trying to deviate, why drop it over Carlisle? Last resort second-best choice?
  3. Oops, I made a mathematical typo. Mikumo's template lived no less than 500 thousand years ago (at least, the date of the Stellar Republic's heyday hasn't changed in any new canon work as far as I know). But still. Cloning and force-growing a member of an apparently extinct species just to test weaponized fold singing. And not even telling the test subject that she's vulnerable to the enemy. *snort* One would think Lady M is Tōdō Ushio.
  4. Ughhhh. I still hate it, though. If the Macross 7 VF-17 model had been directly adapted into a CG model for Macross Frontier, my sense of order would be so much happier. How about after the end of the Vajra War, though? I can't swear to it, but I want to say that among the many fighters Hávamál fielded in Macross 30 included VF-27s. And all the loading screens in Macross 30 label Brera and May's fighters as "VF-27".
  5. Heh, I'd call Chaos leadership at least as shady as central NUNS for cloning and force-growing a millions-year-old dead person and then deploying her against hostile conquerors who can exert mind control over her without telling her a word about her origins. Minmay or whoever Lady M is can have their ass nailed to a wall for gross lack of ethics.
  6. On a different subject, why does the VF-171 have its number? Is there real-life precedent for a "17" fighter getting economized into version "171"? Petty concern, but "171" offends my sense of order when almost every other variable fighter designation has followed an obvious numerical scheme.
  7. Damn, I want a Macross series that shows off the power of this VF-24 superfighter! I'm a bit confused by that wording. Why do you say that the VF-31 is only indirectly descended from the YF-24 when the VF-31 is basically just a modified YF-30? Haven't the other YF-24 derivatives gone through intermediate development steps? Didn't Frontier go from YF-24 to YF-25 to VF-25 and Galaxy from YF-24 to YF-27 to VF-27?
  8. What are the realistic odds that the Windermereans will actually get their comeuppance in Gekijō no Walküre versus the writers letting them get away with everything as in the TV anime?
  9. Do any official materials specify what the production version of the YF-24 is for NUNS Earth? I assume anyway that they made something for themselves before Frontier developed the YF/VF-25 and Galaxy developed the YF/VF-27.
