    10 days and my VF-1A is finally clear to leave Japan. This has been my longest wait just to get to this point.

    My VF-1A shipped on the 1st and no status updates. Would like to know what country it is in.
  4. Story we should have gotten was the one they showed in all of the flashbacks. Those parts seemed much more interesting.

    Yay I finally got Hikaru.
  6. I hope it just a moderate success. Enough to warrant more Macross down the road but not enough to warrant a Delta copy cat series.
  7. Fear the Walking Dead finally had a decent episode.
  8. We've talked about this several times before. One camp sees the flashback as literal retelling of the event and the other camp sees as something more surreal open to interpretation. Then both camps try to convince the others that they are right. No one ever succeeds in doing that. Everyone has a strong opinion on this and things get really heated. Closing this topic just to maintain the peace.

    Got the Shipping notice from AmiAmi for the VF-1A. Using SAL so it will take a bit to get here.
  10. For first half gets praise not because it was great but because it ended on a high note of good things to come.
  11. A movie at this point means either 2 things. 1. An admission that the series was a mistake and now they are being jerks by making you pay to see a movie version that fixes their mistakes. 2 They want you to suffer some more.
  12. Now what you've all been waiting for my opinion! I've been very busy and just took a break to watch this last episode. I'll only give negative or neutral votes with this series. I kind of liked this episode and gave it a neutral. This decision was based only episode 26 episode alone. It felt like good ending meant for a different series than the one I actually watched. Episode 26 was clearly based of all the forced and badly introduced plots introduced in the 2nd half. It was an okay episode but when I judge along with the rest of the series I have to be harder on it. If they did a better job on the 2nd half I would have cared more for the characters involved. I found all the Windermere plots uninteresting. Roid vs Keith had no meaning for me. Walkure saving Mikumo had no meaning either. The first episode introduced us to the 3 leads. The stage throughout the series should have been their's. I would have preferred that Freyja's power of love (ugh) only freed Hayate. Then as the sole hero fueled by Freyja's song he alone went to challenge Roid. It would have been a better ending if he saved the day. Now to the dumb stuff. Nothing about Lady M. Why waste time talking about her if there's isn't going to be a pay off? Oh look more naked floating people in dream land (ugh).
  13. Still haven't watch it but since I'm here and waiting for something I think I'll share a theory. There was never a love triangle. It was always Freyja and Hayate. It just took Hayate a bit longer to realize it. Mirage's interest in him has more to do with over coming her own fears and insecurities. She has legacy to uphold but knows she isn't that good and has to work hard at it. Hayate represents a carefree happiness that she wished could have. That's why she's drawn to him. Being around Hayate made Mirage a better person. She doesn't need to be with him. At least my theory. I might change my mind after watching the episode.
  14. Haven't watched it yet either. It is nice to hear that Mirage got a flash back scene that shows she'll actually a Jenius. For a while I assumed Mirage was just any unrelated character at first that they gave her the Jenius afterwards to tie the series together. Wait a minute is now the time to show a flash back? I think I'll enjoy watching it but isn't time use very important in finale episodes? So the big final fight is between Keith and Roid to the death? I don't remember them having mecha duels before? Are there any other mecha duels to the death between Delta team and the other nights? Oh yeah do they cure Windermere of the aging disease through the power of song or are they all still doomed to only live around 30 years?
  15. She better have a hairy upper lip or I'm not watching.
  16. Short survey for those who prefer to wait for subs before viewing. Are you still going to wait for subs with episode #26? I've been reading all the spoilers but have been waiting for the subs. I don't know if I will wait this time.
  17. They also removed the love triangle pillar, the storyline pillar, the animation pillar along with the mecha pillar. Delta is balancing on the single pillar of its music.
  18. Can we just please leave the Mega Road crew out of this train wreck? Being lost in space and presumed dead is far better fate for these legendary heroes.

    As long as we still get a Macross release every other month I'm okay with it.
  20. Heinz, Roid, Berger and the Knights totally deserve to die. The willingly used the var. A mind control that sends people on killing sprees. They did this long before they declared war. They willingly use weapons that kills thousands in instant without a second thought. Maybe you can justify that it is a war and the NUNS is a legitimate target. What about the civilian victims of the var? I so want this series to end with Hayate going nuts and taking all of the Knights out in a brutal mecha fight. Freyja frees Mikumo who yells a sonic blast that explodes Heinz and Roids heads. There's no way to end this mess in 20 minutes. Instead I'm afraid the series may end with a big singing-sing love feast with Heinz and Walkure. Maybe Roid will die. Heinz and the rest of Knights will just learn the errors of their ways once singing heals their planet, ends their aging disease and brings love to everyone.

    Inches? Shouldn't their "gun pods" be in feet? Why is Laplamiz even on that list. She's a girl.
  22. How about a public apology from everyone who doubted me? I was among the first who warned about this series. I seem to remember a few others. I think they left after getting some negative feedback for sharing their dislike. You guys can come back now. Can I gloat now? Please let me hear you all say it, you were right. Actually I was wrong. My earliest negative opinion had to do with the preview episode. My complaint was that I didn't like the apparent magic girl theme in a Macross series. Maybe an all-out magic girl show focusing mainly on Walkure wouldn't have been all that bad. It least there would have been a clear focus. As a whole Delta ending up being a disappointed not because of Walkure but because of weak story telling and being cheap with the animation.
  23. Watched it with subs and gave it a negative vote. Was going to give a neutral. The talking heads just providing information was boring as hell. At least it was valuable stuff that we needed to know. If only they...I don't know showed us this information instead of telling us over the course of several episodes. That would have been a better way of doing things. Instead they give it to us all at once. I was still planning to give it a neutral and then the animation quality change midway through the episode. That's was enough to tilt my vote to a negative. A few spoiler things
