I received my FX sets a pair of days ago and already saw the first 2 discs: I really like it so far. Thanks to the forumers in there, I was warned that the beginning of the show is 'weird' but once the first instant of surprise is passed, it doesn't require real efforts to get in IMO
I think the combination of music and Spiritia thing is really an interesting concept which fits well the Macross formula: I can't wait to see how this will be developped. Characters are all loveable IMO, with their strong and weak points but they all have their own personality though some of them look a bit 'cliche' (such as Gamlin who's slightly too much Top Gun-like, or Ray who's the usual 'I-did-war-and-was-traumatized-by-what-I-saw' character, etc,...), my favorites so far are Basara, Mylene and Viffida, as well as Gubaba btw. The 'bad' guys are pretty cool too, especially the leader. I'm not very fond of the mechanical designs so far, except the VF-17 and the VF-11, this is why I was pleasantly surprised to see Mirya coming back into the action with her red VF-1...
More impressions coming 'soon'
Btw, I've a question for the local experts. In the episode where there is this 'Lin Minmei Story' movie thing (I belive it's episode11), Max and Mirya are discussing and he says this:
Is this 'Investigating team' supposed to be a bad translation for 'Supervision Army'?
