  1. http://www.cdjapan.co.jp/detailview.html?KEY=VICL-365 The song is an image song on the Macross II, OST volume 2. You'll find the song there.
  2. Depends on what part exactly..... No. At that point, he was already in the falling out of orbit and gravity is affecting him. Hikaru said it himself. He was too far from the combat zone and considering his position, he had no choice but to just go down. Considering he had no gunpod, most of his armaments were gone, what is he going to fight with? He doesn't have enough mini-missiles to take on everybody, let alone another capital ship. Head-lasers really don't do enough damage and is really a CIWS. That would mean he would have to go back to Macross to refuel and rearm. You can't exactly land when your ship is engaged. You have to look at each VF individually. For a VF-1/VF-0, It could stand to lose it's arms and head since those are only essential for battroid mode. For the VF-22, it can stand to lose it's arms and legs since those are non-essential. The best way to look at it is a VF cannot afford to lose it's main engines and torso area (which normally houses the cockpit). Everything else is really non-essential. It's a common sense issue, really. Whatever is essential for the fighter-mode to use to fly is essential to the VF. Everything else is is non-essential.
  3. *yawn* http://www.anime.net/macross/story/encyclo...love/index.html http://www.anime.net/macross/story/encyclo...ar_i/index.html
  4. For the billionth time, there is no official dub/sub of M0. We will let you know when that happens. For cryin out loud....you people are freakishly LAZY.
  5. More to the point....why waste time bitching about the CN stuff when you could just buy the DVD and get it unaltered.
  6. http://www.anime.net/macross/production/au...eral/index.html Scroll down.
  7. Yep, that pic is from the book I mentioned above. http://www.macrossworld.com/macross/books/plus_tia.htm It has about 16 pages of fan-art by Shigeki Ninomiya, who did the paints on the image. It's all fan-art. In fact, IIRC, it inspired a few guys to do their own squadron markings. Check around the RPG networks. You should see some fan-art/squadron repaints. Some of them were pretty good. Of course, it was all fan-art.
  8. You do know that there are lots of fan-colored shots out there, right? In fact, this book has a whole bunch in the back of it. http://www.macrossworld.com/macross/books/plus_tia.htm All of the recolorings were done by Shigeki Ninomiya, who is not affiliated with Studio Nue, but is a fan of the series and has interviewed Kawamori on occassions.
  9. From Ray. Who got it from Max, who got it from a little project.
  10. 2) Encore are the un-aired/extra episodes to M7's 49 episodes. 3) Macross Dynamite 7 is a 4-part OAV set after the events of M7. Macross 7: The Galaxy is Calling me! is a short movie which takes place during the events of M7.
  11. Macross-05 (more specifically, Battle-5) was a Zentradi variant, however it still was a New-Macross class. Since the fleet was majority Zentradi, most of the ships were Zentradi. The frigates were redesigned with a more distinctive Zentradi look and the fleet also included the Neo Nupetiet-Vergnitzs bis-class. http://www.anime.net/macross/mecha/united_..._bis/index.html There probably are more of them out there. Macross-13 (specifically Battle-13) is canon as Macross VF-X 2 is canon. http://www.anime.net/macross/story/chronol...2040/index.html The key to Macross-13 was the Sound Jamming system (or whatever it was called). The system rendered all tracking systems useless (i.e., you couldn't track by radar, any missile you fire would lose target look, including mini-missiles*). *Note: We've theorized in the past that mini-missiles use IR tracking. But that's for another thread. In the game, you face a boss in a VF using the Sound Jamming system. When he activated it, you could not track him so you had to maintain visual on him.
  12. At this point, we have no idea. There are 13 New-Macross class ships we know about and of those 13, 3 we know the most about. It could be safe to assume that there is one New-Macross class (Battle section specifically) out there for fleets, but their primary role is colonial escort. Wonder what fan-fic he got that one off of.......
  13. The reason they got the factory satellite was to increase production after losing most of their production facilities. By the 2040s, they have production facilities all around the galaxy and mobile production facilites like the 3-Star factory ship. Production facilities decentralized thanks to the work that the original factory satellite.
  14. 1) Only 2 SDF-class ships were built. SDF-1 and the partial SDF-2. There is a chance of more Supervision gunboats out there though... 2) As Noyhauser mentioned, the New-Macross-class are the heaviest. Those ships are much like our own fleet carriers. 3) There is only one factory satellite in our possesion.
  15. 1) http://www.anime.net/macross/mecha/index.html The UN doesn't use just "light stealth fleet carriers and elite fighter squads". The Compendium lists several other ship-classes. You're coming close to a debating thread. This thread is not meant for arguements. Just Q&A. If you want to go on and on about why the UN doesn't build SDF classes anymore, then I suggest starting your own thread. 2)In-cannon? Or in-canon? If you mean the former, then you just want mobile cannons? I believe that role is filled by the Grand Cannons and many planets are free to set up a defense perimeter just like the one used on Earth. If it's the latter, then I'm not sure what you mean.
  16. Since Earth was decimated, they really couldn't build more. SDF-2 was still in construction by the time the war started. After the war, most of the resources were used to reconstruct Earth. We had a sizeable Zentradi fleet at our disposal. That would have been fine considering they just eliminated an entire armada. Priority went to reconstruction of Earth and not to another SDF.
  17. After you run Ad-aware, run this: http://www.spychecker.com/program/hijackthis.html Quick-start guide: http://tomcoyote.com/hjt/ This is intended for advanced users so be wary of what you do. Check out the forums here: http://www.spywareinfo.com/forums/ They should help you figure it all out.
  18. I was wondering about that. Guess HLJ was wrong with the name. http://www.tv-asahi.co.jp/blade/004_rider/...ce/chalice.html I think we can get away with calling him Karis or Chalice. The Katakana has "karisu". The official site uses "Chalice". When you hear the people pronounce his name in the series, you can hear them say "Karis". It's the wonderful world of phonetics....
  19. I think it was Earth but it's never really mentioned in any series.
  20. Geez....You know, if you do a little editing, then yeah, it would look like a carbon copy of that thread...
  21. It's called keeping production cost down. They had the area from KR Blade for a day, why not use it? It's kind of a waste to have a location for a day that will only be used for what...a 5 minute scene? BTW, it's spelled Chalice, not Karris. It's just that when they say it, it sounds like Karris.
  22. Don't you know? People don't read the Compendium.
  23. Bingo. Vermillion Team was indeed part of Skull and never it's own squadron. http://www.anime.net/macross/characters/i/...#ichijyo_hikaru http://www.anime.net/macross/characters/j/...eniusMaximilian http://www.anime.net/macross/characters/k/...l#KakizakiHayao Also, Max an Millia, circa 2012, had their own teams within Skull Squadron. In fact, Max was promoted and given his own group prior to the final battle of SWI. Lastly, please use the newbie thread. I believe this question has popped up in the newbie thread.
  24. The "backpack" thrusters were on.
