Dervish

I went to a Japanese rock/punk concert called ZAMZA. They are fun performers and it introduced me to a music style I never heard before!

What? No Exedore?

Exedore singing Sunset Beach

Arjuna, Yudhisthira, and Bhima. I'd call it the Pandava System.

Before the internet became widespread, I satiated my Macross fix at Kinokuniya (in Yaohan) and some small store within a larger room filled with stores in Yaohan shopping center. This was in Edgewater, NJ. I later rented some Macross II at a local comic store, but for some reason, I was not into it. Sadly, I figured Macross were sequels were not for me, so I missed out on seeing M7 until just a couple of years ago. By the time I was able to buy an imported version of DYRL for the PS1 at an import store in NY whose name escapes me, the internet age was upon us.

I would also like to hear OST 2.

EDIT: I can't wait to buy this! Woo hoo!

I saw Macross for the first time via Robotech in 1985, and I also bought the Comico comic books. In 1991, I got "Clash of the Bionoids", and then I played the SNES import game, and from then on I had sworn off Dorkotech.

... with figure.

I just want to say that is really great work!

what wallpaper do you have? maybe Macross:F that have Pizza hut logo on the right top?

I saw that one, it didn't take full advantage of my resolution plus I didn't care for it. Thanks for pointing it out though! Also I've seen some of Zinjo's offerings, and I'm using one of them right now.

Also, SpacePirateNeko posted some offerings recently on the MacF final episode thread.

If there's anything else in my resolution, I'd love to see it

The recent DYRL offering here seems great, but since the length exceeds the width, I don't think it would look so good on a widescreen.

yeah i totally agree with u!! Bilrer is us fanboys, and he owns real VFs!!! isn't that every otakus' dream come true?

His affinity for model trains seemed to be a not so subtle point to his general otaku status.

I've seen Macross 11 being mentioned often on the forums. How do we know Fire Bomber American and Lynn Kaifun live there?

I will always be very fond of SDF Macross. Followed very closely by DYRL and Macross Frontier.

just realized: they never did show nanase wake up, or did they?

She opened her un-bandaged eye.

Near the finish, when Alto was flying with his EX-gear, I thought he was going to fly toward Brera, with the two ladies in his life looking on

WTF!!!! Nekid Grace .......

It looks like she's surrounded by tentacles!

worst yet, at the end Alto will rescue Ranka, they will join Sheryl, Alto is going to start saying something and then goes to the end credits cutting him in mid sentence.

Is Kawamori a Sopranos fan?

Star Wars type? Hehe. Well, if you insist...

Shery: Alti, all I want is your love.

Alto: I won't lose you the way I lost my mother. I am becoming more powerful than any SMS has ever dreamed of, and I'm doing it for you: to protect you.

Sheryl: ...I don't believe what I'm hearing... Ozma was right... you've changed!

Alto: I don't want to hear any more about Ozma. SMS turned against me; don't you turn against me?

Sheryl: [crying] Alti, you're breaking my heart! And you're going down a path I cannot follow!

Yikes.

Alto: Love won't save you, Ranka. Only my new VF-25 can do that!

There's something to note, though. The crazy hydra has red eyes. The vicious Vajra also have red eyes. Maybe Sheryl's going to get red eyes now, too, seeing as how Alto "died" and that's going to drive her insane?

I think Ranka's eyes look red while she sings "Ai Oboete Imasu ka?" in "hologram" form.

Does anyone here have any large resolution wallpaper for Macross, preferably Macross Frontier? I have 1680x1050.

The magazine artwork looks positively beautiful. It's great to see that stuff without blocking out part to most of it. Though, all but one of them come from Animedia...

Did anyone see this at Kinokuniya bookstore? I'll try getting it next week, unless it takes a bit longer for it to get stateside.

I also find this "spoiler" pretty hard to believe (maybe kresphy finally snapped), but am I the only one who can see a "kill them all" ending actually being uplifting?

Like, maybe when you get vaporized around the Vajra planet, you go to a happy place in fold space. Then Michel and Klan could be re-united, just like wolfx & company want.

Maybe they'll find Hikaru and company there Perhaps it's like the Nexus from Star Trek: Generations

The beginning of this episode was interesting, with Ranshe and Grace fighting and the quote "they tell us not to fight". Were Ranshe and Grace in a Boston Marriage, or something more?

Aside from Macross soundtracks?

Bruddah Iz!

I think after his mother died Alto tried not to love anyone anymore. More than being dense, he is just afraid to love.

FV

If that's true, Sheryl's terminal condition and Ranka's departure are going to seriously compound that. Poor Alto

I thought that roughly applied to Michel as well. Never felt he was giving her much special treatment.

I think Michel was somewhat antagonistic toward Klan, making at least unflattering comments about her miclonized appearance. Certainly not fawning, but I'm not quite sure if I would say it wasn't special treatment

I've got a question, being serious for a moment; Could somebody explain to me exactly WHAT SHERYL SEES IN ALTO? I mean with Ranka, I can see that it could just be a crush( given her age) but why is Sheryl going after him? What does Alto offer Sheryl that somebody else could not?

He is the only male who doesn't fawn all over her, but treats her normally.

Vaguely reminiscent of Hikaru being one of the few guys who wasn't intimidated by Misa, his impetuousness was a challenge to her.

hey maybe it'd be a boy, and we'll get a Basara v2.0 !!!
