  1. Alright, before this thread gets completely racial,

    that was a neat encounter; wish I was apart of it. Everyone should

    have joined in and sang, too. Kind of like a musical...

    Lol, she was probably the ony one who knew the song. Wish I'd been there...

  2. It's not about being from the orient that's insulting. That term is already struck down from books since the 70's, iirc.

    It's just that "oriental" means rug to most asians/asian-americans people like me.

    I rather not have you whiteboys call our girls "oriental".  We rather have you call our people (especially our girls) as  asians/asian-american or chinese or japanese or vietnamese or thai, etc, etc, to be specific.

    yeah, just keep it simple and call us ASIAN period. No other special names will do, like nips, chinks, charlie, japs, chinito, fly lice, etc.... :p:D:lol:

    Hmm, I was informed by one of the Japanese people in town that his people most definetly did not want to be called asian (that was for people from Asia.) Has this changed? It was a number of years ago.

  3. I'm in Best Buy in Mesa AZ looking in the anime section and I notice this Beautiful Oriental girl ...

    Dude, Asian-American please... "Oriental" is NOT the perfered nomenclature.

    Honkeys like us don't often pay attention to such things.

    What?

  4. We see the picture less than a second, exactly in the middle of ep. 27. But not full screen. Just a scrowling (not sure the word is correct :unsure: ) of the picture (impossible to see the valks by this way)

    Nanashi's site is really good for some rare macross subjects. But for this link: http://nanashi.macrossmecha.info/resrc/cat...iles/gmps1.html

    Just a question: I don't find the link if I come from the home page. :blink: ?! normal ?

    Strangely enough, it's normal.

    So it's in that "armada" shot showing us how many ships they have, eh?

  5. "6 lasers head" Where is the picture ?

    On the poster of the SDF 1 before the final battle, inside "This Is Animation 7", there is a lot of interesting valks like the "funny red chinese hat" one. Not to be taken seriously so... Well, what a pity :( (hope finding informations to make some models...)

    Anyway I find this one pretty cool (Rec./AWACS valkyrie version ?) :lol:

    Is that Ep 27? What's the time code?

  6. Bandai Entertainment Bible #51 does state that the gigantic-sized space battleship Macross Cannons are made up of Nupetiet-Vergnitzs Zjentohlauedy battleships (each which are 4000m in length) so that would make the Macross Cannons about 6000+ meter in length. Also you can see a size comparison of the Zjentohlauedy picket ship in front the bow of one of the Macross Cannon in the screen capture I took below:

    *snip*

    Nice - I have wondered...

  7. As far as the Macross Compendium is concerned, while I am thankful for Egan Loo's hard work, it itself is not an "offical" site and while extremely accurate in many ways, a few things have slipped through the cracks now and then.  :D

    Egan Loo's Compendium is about as official as it can get. It has Big West and Studio Nue's sanction. Everything that is found in the Compendium are derived from official sources only.

    vinnie

    EDIT IN: Oh yeah, it is also the only officially recognized depot of info for all things Macross by the creators themselves.

    While I don't degrade the value of the Compendium, I can't consider it "official" until there is a Big West logo on it stating so. But I will consider it amazingly accurate above other sources.

  8. I'm in Council Bluffs and for all intents and purposes, we might as well be a part of Nebraska. People in the Eastern half the state barely seem to be aware that the Western half even exits.

    No one I know uses "warsh" that I can think of offhand.

    Warsh seems to be pretty midwestern - very common here in "outstate" NE.

    I find that people in the East of NE hardly want to believe that the Western half exists :p

  9. Well, it's been pretty much confirmed by now. Gunbuster is now out of print with Manga Entertainment and no new release is ever planned. This sucks for those of us who live here in the United States.

    All we have to do now is figure out how we are going to get another company to acquire the license. Anyone out there have any ideas?

    Well, if Robert Woodhead is still very interested, maybe that'll solve all the problems. Bug Animeigo to pick it up. :)

    Word.

  10. Its not the broad-stroke story that is lame, its the show... I guess the story could have come off good if there were no fruity-buttplug sissy monsters or Elton John wannabe assmaster Basara singing like a pride parade assless chap model. THOSE things are what make M7 fit for me to piss on.

    You work in marketing and this is the best statement you could come up with?
