yes! Gal Force had some of the greatest fleet battles in my opinion. Take Eternal for instance, everyone dies!

Hmmmm I'll see if I can, it'll be low quality though, I use a friends webspace to send out my fanworks. What I'd really like to do is get my cast together and do a full comparison, for each scene that's done by ADV, I'll do with my cast, see which ppl would find more toleratable. I had a few friends watch two scenes, the Bridge Bunny scene, and the Airshow, each person who viewed it gritted their teeth at one specific thing, "Muhcross".

Wait......how can AnimEgo release ANOTHER box style.....when they lost the rights to distribute the series.......hence why ADV was making an English dub.....
-
Well if I don't get a phone call next week, then we'll know.
-
well, AnimEgo you can get for under 15 bucks a pop......the first volume with the collectors box will run you under 30 dollars........

Okay so I ripped the scenes from AnimEgo and placed the MP3 bits thanks to Mechamaniac. Hikaru's voice I could grow on, its not too much of the over done that I would have expected, its not bad. Roy's....well, its not bad, I don't have a real complaint, but the guys voice squeeks to much when he's yelling and its annoying. It sounded cute in Nadesico, but no not here..... Misa......I REALLY dislike it.......she's too nassely, and her pronounciation of Macross REALLY made me cringe, not sure about you guys, but my head could of popped. Claudia, not bad, not bad at all, I could get use to it. Shammy...well...I hear her VA everywhere....last time I heard her was Steal Angel Kurumi as Karinka....I don't think her voice matches shammy's cuteness in the least. Global.......Accent, you've got to have either the italian or Russian accent, its a must. I always told my Global VA back when I first did the first half of Episode 1, he's got to keep the accent believable...and he did it nicely, I really liked his portrayal of Global, but this guy no. I don't like it. Breetia and Exadore......ummm......you know........I don't know.....I don't like the vocal effect, its just an echo......there's no overlap....you know what I mean, when you slide 1 vocal set, than the exact one under it but start that second one just a half second ahead...using an echo it sounds nice...but just the echo and 1 vocal set sounds weird. But I guess this officially means I have to stop doing my Fandub of Macross it was alot of fun, but now I'll tackle down the others like Zero or DYRL. Those I've been planning for almost 2 years.
-
*grits his teeth* I honestly think the cast I had for my fandub is much better than some of these... Hikaru - not bad, I was very surprised they added Sempai to the dialouge, it seems ADV is getting lieniant towards that type of Japanese tradition. But a MP3 isn't everything, I'd have to add the video to this to see how the voice would sound with the animation, I think my voice was better. Roy - Now I recognize this guy, he was Carrot in Sourcer Hunters, and Gai in Nadesico. : / when his voice squeeks during his over acting it really makes me loose cofidence in the choice for Roy. So lemme ask you guys, from hearing my actor for Roy Fokker, and than this one, which would you think you'd get use too more? Misa - Downright dissapointment in my opinion.....she sounded WAY to shocked after the distruction of alien cruisers......and nassely. Not too mention I hate her pronounciation on certain things. I can't believe they're calling Macross Muhcross! Minmay -......I need to listen to that again, I swear to god I thought I heard a pit of British there or something. Overall, I think the name pronounciations over alot of stuff seems to be too whacked out....this really concerns me......I'm gonna rip a few of those scenes where these voice samples are involved and check this out myself......I'll let you guys know what I honestly think after full viewing later.

DAMMIT! THEY PUSHED BACK DOA4 AGAIN TILL THE END OF THE MONTH! GGGGGGGGGGGGGGGOOOOOOOOOOOOODDDD!!!!!!! DAMN YOU TECMO!

Mobile Suit Zeta Gundam A New Translation
Hikuro replied to F360°'s topic in Anime or Science Fiction
They might not show the second drop since its mentioned that Jamitov is taking the war into space, which I found funny since in that series the Jaburo base was being abandoned for the Kilaminjaro base in Africa....yet it was never stated, just "Jamitov wants to take the war to space!" I thought the translation wasn't bad, but personally, I'm not into that whole "You killed lila! Kisama!" .........we all know what Kisama stands for, but I think so many of us are use to the translation to be loosely around "Bastard" since its an insulting word towards someone saying "You" in Japanese isn't it? If your gonna translate it up above, just leave it as "Bastard" its said SO often in the movie "KISAMA!!!!!" just say it "BASTARD!!!!" That's how its recognized in Western society of translations. It sort of irks me off when sub groups add Japanese words into the subs....I don't want that. Also Doide I think was what Kamille called the Sleds...why not just call 'em what they are? don't toy with it.... -

Dear lord........why would they use that inferior MG mold for the RX-78?! it can't support the shield weight, that's why one of my gundams doesn't have a shield anymore, the lower part of the arm keeps dropping. Haven't had the problem with the GM though. But I do like that 1/1 scale MS seat. I REALLY wish I could buy that MKII 2.0 it looks so nice, and my custom paint job off it would come out so well. And that Argama diarhama is genius! I think its one of those paper cut out deals! I wish I could find a way to do that! I'd make stuff like that all the time for a cool way to dsiplay my UC models! -
Mobile Suit Zeta Gundam A New Translation
Hikuro replied to F360°'s topic in Anime or Science Fiction
Nero I think was able to encode it after an hour and a half, but it wouldn't burn the DVD blank....I'll look into WinAVI in a bit. I liked the movie, there was surprisingly alot of new animation and alot of the original story was altered which surprised me. But I felt Lila's death was cut out of its significants compared to her TV death......sort of like Kakhazaki's death in the TV series to DYRL.....he dies cause he was slow but it carried a deeper meaning to Hikaru, but in the movie he was just stupid and got killed. I was very surprised how fast paced the movie got but really slowed down and cramed ALOT in the last 30 minutes. Can't wait for Movie 2. -
Mobile Suit Zeta Gundam A New Translation
Hikuro replied to F360°'s topic in Anime or Science Fiction
my speed picked up from time to time lastnight, it just finished about 20 minutes ago and I'm TRYING to find a way to turn it into a DVD so I can watch it on TV instead of sitting on an uncomfortable couch for an hour and a half......even though I did that with FF7AC.... I've got a DVD burner thankfully.....I'm trying to use this copy of Nero my friend gave me cause my Intervideo WinDVD creator wont take the file unless its in the proper DVD settings which I got NO CLUE how to do....suppose to be that VOI or wha ever setting yet nothign to convert it. So Nero is currently encoding the video, probably'll be a other hour or so before I know what happens if it doesn't work I'm getting lunch, coming home and watching Zeta. -
I just saw this tonight limited to over 1,000 units, 14 inches tall and is 250 some odd dollars. This thing looks hella nice!

DAMN YOU! DAAAAAAAMMMMNNNN YYYYOOOOOUUUU!!!!!! I'm gonna try something here in a bit......it says I'm doing 10mbps.....I think I'm suppose to be over that if I weren't splitting the connection thru an old lan router. -
Could you even consider Nintendo still being a competitor in this next gen war? ......if you look at it, more and more games for SONY and Microsoft are aimed more towards teens and adults with shooting, sims, fight games ect....while Nintendo though released a few mature titles with the Gamecube, just seems to be aiming to much towards the younger crowds and not appealing towards its original customers, those of us who saw the first nintendo back in the mid 80's.... But back on topic with the 360, its release in Japan just sucks, but I expected something close to this. I think the big draw back was no release of DOA4, like I said, I'm really pissed at Tecmo for delaying it an entire month after the systems release.

: / it sort of has the Guncannon upper body, but the head is different and most of the upper body is also changed, the only thing similar would be the arms, but you'd have to hack those and replace with guns. I was going thru HLJ and saw a kit that'll allow you to take the exo skeleton of the OYW Gundam and help you create a OYW style GM unit which looked very cool.......but its 22 pieces which I think means alot of tape and paint to give it a truely authentic look. That's something that also scares me about Resin kits...like the head is all one piece alot of the time isn't? Espically the GM head, its not like you got two pieces for the head and than a visor....its all one pieces.....and painting the visor would be difficult for me. I always have a hard time working with models where a chunk of what you want to paint is molded with another piece you want a different color from what your shooting for. -

Hikuro replied to Black Valkyrie's topic in Hall Of The Super Topics
Uhhh, I don't think a PG RX-78(G) has been even tried. But there's a HUGE difference between them. That unit is modeled more after the Ground type GM and never had a core block. Not too mention its armor is greatly different. As for show wise......0080, six episodes, mostly the Zeon side of the war, only mobile suit action is the start of the first episode and the final 2 episodes........the rest is just that damn annoying brat. 0083 has LOTS of mobile suit action, but when you think it should fill in holes between the OYW and Zeta....it creates more holes. -
WOW, if that thing is bigger than my 1/144 METEOR that is just astonishing I would love to get my hands on the White Base even though its just a boxy ship of doom.

BANISHED! Also for reference, when I speak of a OYW model I really mean the Mastergrade line that was created specifically for the One Year War video game that Namco produced. Sadly, it seems the OYW Gundam Mastergrade was the only one to recieve the highest special treatment and could be regarded as being one of the best RX-78-2 kits available. -

Hikuro replied to Black Valkyrie's topic in Hall Of The Super Topics
It's still very possible they could since they've been doing alot of OYW models over the last year. But I think the main reason we haven't seen one is lack of demand, its sort of why you don't see Southern Cross figures around Sure there are fans, but there might not be enough to make the product sell. I was gonna take some pictures of my OYW Gundam with my ......pathetic Gundam, but my battery died so I'll have to bug ppl for batteries.....I could of sworn I had some spares cause of my Lightsabers. The Zeon suits are fun to build, but like mentioned those hoses can be a real pain in the ass. The Zaku's in Zeta Gundam got rid of the hose problem by making them rubber instead. Sadly the only Zeon suits I got are MG Kampfer, OYW Gouf, OYW Dom, 1/144 Gelgoog and Sazabi..........man I really love the detail off the Sazabi. Might be pretty lousey for posing, but its size and the time I took on customizing it was fun! If I could get another OYW Gundam, I'd more than likely make an RX-78-1, the color scheme off that is nice. But off this sites list the MG's I'd want...... ZAKU II White Wolf Custom/Johnny Riden GM Custom (cause I ruined mine) GM Quel (mine busted, it turned out so nice too) Gouf Custom ZEONG OYW Zaku OYW Gelgoog Gundam MKII 2.0 and the soon to be released Zeta 2.0 mmmmmmmmmm the life wasted by those kits wouldn't make me feel guilty at all. -

Oh its Version 1? I didn't know that, my Gundam 1.5 came from Gamestop, that one I know was 1.5, thought it was the exact same one, they look alike. I trashed my RX-78GP-01Fb, 1.5, Zaku II, and some 1/144's....but most of the collection I tossed came from my SEED shelf. -
What Ever Happened To Shawn And Graham? Does Anyon
Hikuro replied to med96ben's topic in Movies and TV Series
I thought I saw Graham pop his head in once in while, but Shawn........can't remember EVER seeing him here since I joined MW.... -
In the Japanese demo disk that comes with the PS1 DYRL game you can pilot either a cannon fodder VF-1A, or Iron Chief's VF-11. In the US Demo you only pilot the Iron Cheif's VF-11, battle some drones, duke it out with two other VF-11's than go against a Ghost X-9. I've got the disk, back when I was a sophmore I was talking to a kid who had just moved to the neighborhood during lunch and told him about Macross. He said he had some game that was called Macross so after school I went to his place, and sure enough that's when I found out VFX-2 was coming to the states till it got canceled near christmas. I was VERY pissed off. But I did get to play the game eventually thru an emulator, and I still have the PS2 disk.
