    Macross streaming on Disney+ (under the "Star" label; Star/Hulu of D+)

    in Movies and TV Series

    Posted

    For future troubles with subtitles not working: I had an issue with the subs on Hulu not working, so I tested them on Disney+ (I have the bundle). They wouldn't work there. So I reset the CC settings on my TV, then the various apps. Nada. So I then went into a series I know the captions worked, in this case What If Season 2. They began to work. I switched over to Macross Zero. The captions started working.

    Macross Delta Zettai Live!!!!!! - Available on Blu-ray Sept 28, 2022

    I enjoyed it overall. You can see the hint of the story the writers were trying to tell under the glee & glam that is Walkure. Both movies do an excellent job of improving on Delta TV. I think they hamfisted the Megaroad-01 but could see Misa trying to keep humanity from making the same mistakes as the Protoculture.

    Pluses:

    • New Valks
    • Max
    • Character development

    Minuses:

    • Overall story.
    • Walkures Music didn't impress this time around. Forgettable is how I would describe it.
    • Spoiler

      Freyja's death. It should have been more gut-wrenching. I was moved more by the Wind Priest's passing than hers.

    The only reason it came to mind is while I was translating the relevant pages in the Master Chronicle, it mentioned that not only are there various sizes to the Factory Satellites (E.g. the one we saw in SDF-1 is one of the smaller ones, as it produces the Rigado), the largest—which produce the Mobile Fortress class of vessel used by Bodoru—are the size of small moons.

    Nevertheless, in looking up the relevant page, I kinda discovered I had already translated the answer to the question I asked in my preceding post.  Old age... :rolleyes:

    That said, I humbly recommend reading it... just for the sheer mind-boggling number of those things out in the galaxy (from Operation Record on the reverse side): http://sdfyodogawa.mywebcommunity.org/MCRmechanic/SDFMzent10aFactorySatellite.php

     

     

    That explains so much how NUNS is able to field these massive migration fleets along with garrisons and the Earthspace Defense Fleets.  And man, your site is a rabbit hole of lore!

    Well, they are actively seeking them... just not to destroy them—to exploit them for their own uses! ;)

    Of course, due to age, a lot of them are breaking down.  Not to mention being deliberately targeted and destroyed by the Inspection Forces (E.g.: the Guraji producing Factory Satellites have all been destroyed).

    However, the remaining question is: are there Factory Satellites making Factory Satellites?  If so, have they already started breaking down or been destroyed by the Inspection Forces?  Or were the Protoculture producing them themselves? (thus, no neverending supply of those things)

    Thanks for sharing this info, Sketchy. I doubt I'd ever have asked that question. Which brings to mind another question, Did Grace's shenanigans and to a lesser extent, Roid, alert the Inspection Forces of NUNS space/existence?

    Anyone who missed a VF-31F Messer from the pre-orders, I'll be cancelling my HLJ pre-order at 2pm PST

    Can you post here right before you pull the trigger? :)
