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.

Don't you know? People don't read the Compendium.

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.

The "backpack" thrusters were on.

You can get all 9 DVDs for about $180. Shop around and buy the DVDs.

Go there and copy the subs as you watch....

I think the lack of character development in M0 (there is a little, mostly with Shin and probably with Sara coming soon) can be attributed to the fact that the time frame of the series is quite short. M+'s time span went for 3 months. M7's timespan went for more than a year, infact, almost 3. M0's time span? Well...I'd give it about a month of work. The way the episodes are strung together, there is no time lapse. The next episode picks up right where the last one left off. There's no gap. And you know the old saying, you can't expect someone to change overnight.

Blue Roses...That name doesn't ring a bell. Other VFs in demonstration colors.....Not really. There was Docker's VF-19S in the alternate paint scheme when he was taking out his VF-19S for a test. (pic courtesy of Steelfalcon.com)

The wording on that is incorrect. Kawamori never stated that the "real" story is the TV series. They use the TV series as a basis for the rest of the series' continuity, however, the real story is neither the TV series, nor DYRL?. http://www.anime.net/macross/story/encyclo...ar_i/index.html

That's why I don't use the 1st ep of any series as a base. This is the only spot as of this time: http://www.sunflower.com/~aldalin/tvn/ The other option is HK DVDs. Good luck.

They wanted it to be an urban tank....well....there you go.

And you read this where?

Now now...the kids are just too lazy to use a freakin search engine. http://www.mahq.net/mecha/macross/dynamite7/vf-19p.htm

Not at this time.

Different artist. Different look.

Not again....and it's not even April Fools.....

I would disagree. Those FAST packs are also used in space. I believe they also appear in episode 48, before they fold to Varuata.

I knew something looked familiar about that shot. That is from Macross II. Attached is the corresponding scene. For those of you with the Manga release, the time is: 1h:59m:32s.

Just made my order. Thanks for the heads-up Graham.

Take a wild guess.... Unfortunately, they are still fleshing out the characters (watching the raws... ) so I'll get back to you once they start working on the story.

Looks like Oihan found a friend....

Fanart? That kinda reminds me of that F4 in GERWALK mode....crap I can't remember what that thing was called...

A good example would be M0. Look at the Cheyenne. The Cheyenne served as point defense of the Asuka. Even with the booster, the Cheyenne still had to stay close to the ship, or risk sinking. It couldn't fly and it's range was limited to the size of Asuka. Most Destroids only serve the purpose of being a walking turret/artillery. In space, they don't have the mobility of a VF. It would be cheaper to just install turrets at key points over using destroids to cover the area.

I don't think anybody on this forum said that... 1) If M0 was licensed, there would be a big topic on it. 2) There is an ongoing legal debate on who owns what in the Macross franchise, and as such, has frozen most attempts to license any part of Macross outside what has already been released by Animeigo/HG and Manga Video.
