January 2011 Newtype polls.

Sheryl at #2 (up from #4 last month), Ranka returns at #6 (after a long hiatus), and MacrossF at #4 for series popularity.

Thats pretty remarkable considering Frontier is 3 years old now. I guess the films were more popular than expected?

The films are only part of it. With the PSP games, as well as the VF25 getting heavy promotion in the most recent installments of both Super Robot Wars and Another Century's Episode R, concerts (budokan), events (Girasama Matsuri in Yokohama), a constant drip of new blurays (Budokan live, Nyan Cli, etc), figures prominent in UFO catchers at arcades across the country, regular new merchandise at animate and a soundtrack that keeps selling well with each new installment, Satellite has done a great job at keeping Macross in the public eye pretty constantly for the last 2-3 years. I've said it before and Ill say it again, NOW is the best time to be a Macross fan since the 80s. Theres a huge following and a terrific fan community here.

I mean, when an anime get plastered all over the Yamanote Line trains and concert tickets get auctioned off for $400-$500 each, its pretty safe to say we are in the middle of a Macross boom of sorts. Its far more than just the movies.

In breaking Macross F news - there will be a fanclub-only event held at the Nippon Seinen-kan on March 19. No details yet as to what the event is or who the special guests will be. Will post details as they are announced.

The timing is somewhat odd - the 2nd movie will have been out for a couple of weeks by then. I wonder if the event has something to do with announcing a sequel?

I hope so. I was expecting to see the resolution of Frontier vs Galaxy storyline in the 2nd movie alluded by the end of the tv series but looking at the trailers that might not be happening, due to the fact that's not enough time to do that properly. I could very well be wrong but it seems that way to me.

A second series would be a great way to tell that story.

Edit: Taking it over to 2nd F Movie Thread...

Hell Yeah! I would be all about a second series taking place after landing on the Vajra home world.

Otherwise you're right, from the trailers, and judging by the events of the first film basically covering the first 7 or so episodes (outside of the end which was like episode 20) there is no way they can combine the rest of the story into one movie. At least not very efficiently. Though the title of the second film kind of gives off a "The End" type of vibe.

More event news!

Chie Kajiura (Mylene) will be holding ANOTHER gig in Tokyo on May 21 (Sat). This will be a Kajiura gig and will most likely be a mix of her Macross and solo stuff.

As usual, fan club members will have first dibs on tics. they will then be made available for sale via her website and any final left over tics (if any) will go one sale at the door.

Here is a little Xmas pic that Chie sent out :-)

Some bits and pieces.

Firstly, theres going to be a Macross Frontier virtual 'concert' held on Playstation Home. Details are scant although Aya Endo and Megumi Nakajima are confirmed to be involved. Similar events have been held for Hatsune Miku in the past but Im not entirely sure how it will work. Looks like Ill have to dust off my old Home account.

Secondly, was poking around my local Animate recently (which moved to a new building and is now utterly HUGE) when I came across some new additions to the Macross F corner:

Details for the upcoming Macross F Fan Club event have finally been announced!

Macross F Fan Club Event: Wings of Farewell Appreciation and Completion Celebration at Nihon-Seinenkan

Date: March 19 (Sat).

Time: Two sessions will be held, one from 13:00 and the other from 17:00. Both will go for approx, 2 hrs and have the same basic content although guests will vary.

Session 1 Guests

Yuichi Nakamura (Alto)

Katsuyuki Konishi (Ozma Lee)

Aya Endo (Sheryl)

Megumi Nakajima (Ranka)

Session 2 Guests

Katsuyuki Konishi (Ozma Lee)

Aya Endo (Sheryl)

Megumi Nakajima (Ranka)

Kikuko Inoue (Grace Oconner)

Megumi Toyoguchi (Klan)

All that is known about the event itself is that there will be some sort of talkshow.

There will be some discussion of Wings of Farewell so the Fan Club recommends seeing the movie first if you want to attend the event.

Ticket pricing will be split between Regular (3900yen) and Thank You Ticket (5500yen) which includes a special as-of-yet-unannounced souvineer/goods.

Tickets will be chosen by lottery. Applications open at 18:00 this Wed (26). Applications are only open to Fan Club members and are limited to one tic per event per person.

Im getting a sort of mini-Girasama Festival sort of vibe so-far. Anyone who is a fan Cub member log onto the Mac F homepage for further details.

Pia Memorial Card Service has released some photo cards of Megumi Nakajima. These are available in a couple of different sizes and can be found here:

Damn, these remind me of the Shizuka Kudo and Noriko Sakai telephone cards I used to carry around in my wallet back in high school - only bigger!
