I figured since macross is inspired by the theme of music. So why not just share our favorite music, music videos, and amv, who knows we might find our selfs actually liking something. Well I guess I am first, heres my list.

mac plus - sky fits heaven

rahxephon -euphoria

macross zero - aqurion

hikaru utada - simple and clean riseing sun remix

hikaru utada - mflow remix distance (I love the girls in the short hair, droool.)

5cm per sec amv

let me know what you guys think more to come of course

You mean this: Linky (scroll down a bit).

Yeah, it's one of the forgotten/buried links on the main page.

nope not that one, it was cartoonisih, and it had to be one of the mods.

Bingo. Besides, it's either keep her in the school girl outfit or put her in some ridiculous 80's-esque Super-Robot-Pilot outfit.

Also, those crazy animators and their fans love under-aged girls in school girl outfits...

tell me about it, the girls look like there in there imid 20's but there actually 15, or 17, I just turned 20 and that just makes me feel so damn old.

I there was one detail I thought about, I was wondering why she whore her school uniform even when she was a pilot, was it because of a visual description to show she still had her innocence.

I remember stumble'ing upon mac world when I was a kid, and at the title page there was guy who had a early photoshop version of him on his wedding day with minmay as his wife, my first thought was "ok.......freaky, not coming here again", I still dont know who that was?????

ok, I watch'd after watching 5cm per sec, I got to admit Makoto Shinkai is a pretty good story writer. The ova was pretty damn good, except for the mecha designs, prob the worst mechas I have seen to date, but that really did not matter. I kinda start to think if makoto had a a painful love relationship. Anyways as I watching this I keep asking myself would I ever wait that long for your soul mate, thats more than 16 years, I would be in my mid 30's or even early 40's. Anyways does the girl get back to ship, was there ever any hope of being reunited, and what did they mean by if I could give one thought? please leave your feed back.......well I am off to watching The Place Promised in Our Early Days, thanks wolfx

where is episode 2?!?

ah man my friend, prepare yourself for some bad news,you wont see it till april, give me a pm around that time and al send you a link to the torrent.

As for me I am going to put myself into a induced coma until that time, hopefully I will wake up at exactly at that time with no brain damage and not finding myself waking up 20 years from now.lol That shows you how I hate waiting.

ok, i saw the last episode months and months ago, AND YES I LIKE THE SERIES, but I do admit Rie did need a little bit more emotion, But saying that I loved the characters design, the female general was crisp new idea. But I do have some questions, does rie survive, and did he become a jam. I dont care what you guys say I liked this series, its a sword of a different color.

LOL I was thinking reimagined Battlestar Galactica too

I hope its good like Battlestar Galactica

BTW

I love the way the space bug kills the VF-25 pilot

Man are you crazy how could you like the scene when gilliam died man, I thought he was a great character and asset, his tattoo on his face was a pretty cool character design. what a waste of a good character.

Well, the trailer does say that the video was salvaged from what was "formerly known as Central Park."

man just give me a reasonable mecha - one that is good with hand to hand combat, and I can take care of this gloverfield monster with no damage to the citizens (well maybe a little, I might step on someone, or accident'ly blow up a building lol). I am thinking of either a EVA or becomeing ULTRAMAN. Man I cant decide, I would say a valk or a destroid but I dont think they are of the right caliber. But becomeing Ultraman would be sweet, I always wanted to do that thing with the laser arm thingymigjig.

All I can say is it would have lots of nudity, guns, blood, and giant robots kicking the crap out of everything. Oh yeah, and lesbians. There would definately be lesbians...

One thing there would not be is an angst ridden whining teenager who doesn't want to fight as a main character. And if there was, he'd get called nasty names and killed by his own people after 5 min.

Al try to find you something, I am pretty sure I have seen something exactly like that. lol

got bored here at work and watchd it, it was ok, the name describes it.

thanks wolfx

I want to encourage more threads like these, you know where we find great anime and wen try to share it.

try this .mkv format.

'Paprika' and 'MindGame' were other good anime movies I liked. 'Paprika' is a kinda cute sci-fi adventure. 'MindGame' is very surreal and deviates from the anime style, but makes you think.

I will try to watch 'Pale Cocoon' this weekend.

I check'd out paprika and I might watch it because I am curious, but for mind game I might have to drop acid to understand that one. I am pretty sure they are all good, but maybe mind game was not designed for my flavor, but what I am starting to realize is maybe all or 75% of the anime's out there are based on a physiological level of understanding for the viewers, it could be love, fantasy, or anything -the point is what some of them do is to go into our minds and help us explore what we want to understand and are curious about. let me put in simple terms, you dont watch macross because you know whats going to happen, or you know what your going to feel, you watch it because it flexes your curios feelings and emotions to action and drama . just my two cents

damn I am going through my old paper work, documents, and journals and trying to find something great. I promise I will post something worth looking at, I just need to find some inspiration.

I am really loving this thread , al prob have to start a thread for great artistic anime that we can actually relate ourselves too, al do some hunting this weekend. And I am so happy that I am able to share this anime with you guys instead of having it keept to myself and on the vast corners of my hard drive.

Following in the steps of Makoto Shinkai's Voices of A Distant Star is Yasuhiro Yoshiura's Pale Cocoon, done entirely by himself.

I just picked this fansub a week ago and boy was it great! Its a 30 minute episode, with cool CG and an intriguing story. Humans are living in huge underground complexes that look like futuristic ghettos because the environment outside has become too dangerous for human habitation due to human negligence to protect the environment in the past. The main character is a data salvager. Basically not much is known about their past and how they came to live in this huge underground complex, so these data salvagers would "dig up" old data (in binary format ) and restore them to their original states, mostly pictures of the "old world" where they had animals, plants etc.

One day the main character gets a video file.......and is very intrigued by the video. Once the video was restored, he realised the folly of humans......

I was totally refreshed by this anime short. It proves (just like VOADS) that short stories can convey as much meaning and substance if not more, than an anime which has 100++ episodes. I highly recommend it. Check it out at the usual places.

Blog review with pictures: (WARNING! MIGHT CONTAIN SPOILERS)

http://clem.blogsome.com/2006/02/01/pale-cocoon-ova/

I saw the trailer and it has all the qualitys of a good a anime but I think the story is a little to out there, this is only me for the record, but I cant find myself relating to this environment or setting.This is only me and my opinion by the way, but I did get a taste for the girl who leapt time, I am currently downloading it.

God I wish I could fuse Makoto Shinkai with shoji kawamori, then we would be getting some real anime. Back on topic, I still dont understand why the male main character never kept in contact with either of the girls, the surfer girl was really cute and nice and yet he did not care about her in any way even when she was crying he did not comfort her ....well that would have been kind of hard with the rocket launching off, but still he should have comforted her.

I'm gonna steal the most original idea here and sell it to Hollywood so that Shia Lebouf and Jessica Alba can come out in it

clap.......clap......clap.....So exo you finally caught on to my master plan. hey what happend to the cosplay link of those cute girls

did anyone notice the scene where there pulling away the sick lady with the guys in bio suits, and if you look closely its like something is about to burst out of her chest or something.

wooooooooo......ok....can someone explain to me what am I looking at, christ those nasty images will hunt my mind for the rest of my life.

Overanalyzing? No, we must wring every bit of data out of this episode. And the manga. And from the doujins already on their way, I'm sure.

wait whats a doujins, perhaps google image will help me out

Try "The Girl Who Lept Through Time". (Toki wo Kakeru Shoujo) - I liked it anyway.

There are a couple of Ghibli ones like that too, but they bored me senseless.

Thanks I saw the trailer for it.

Eva-06's head looks sorta like the head of the VF-17S's minus the head lasers, no kidding!!

ok....ok.... I know it might be a bad idea to revive this thread, but has there been any news on when they will release it on torrents, also are there any pics of the new evas the links I clicked on are not working.

it sure is

Heres a big one the bridge bunnys or the school girls look like there 23 but there really 17 . This also applys to all animes.
