  1. Ooh! I remember that giving me goosebumps watching it in Robotech (there the robotech theme plays when that happens). I am only halfway through watching SDF Macross for the first time so now I can't wait for that one.
  2. I'd be interested but on top of never having done it before I don't know any Japanese so I am no good in the translation department. However I am good with computers and 'mechanical stuff' as other people have noted so maybe I can do something. The real question for me is do I have the time. Perhaps we should look into it. It would certainly give me an excuse to build a complete Macross library. I still haven't even watched passed episode 1 of Mac7 (I'm still watching original SDF Macross, I'm on ep.17 I believe). I never got to see Flashback actually...
  3. I have never done subbing but something about that is intriguing. Although I bet Shinsen will do a sub of Yakk Deculture.
  4. Nice review March, now we are almost set for episode 15 to air, even though we still have 2 days for that.
  5. We have a NUNS pilot, Brera. Of course he isn't flying a 171 but still.
  6. I've noticed the Shinsen subs for Deculture too, but it was before we had a lot of information on the people's names. They used Lanka in that but updated it to Ranka for the broadcast. All they had to go on in Deculture was what they heard. Since I preferred the deculture edition it is what I put on my burned DVD's (which I have 2 now, the first 10 episodes with Shinsen Subs) so it kind of stands out. I kind of hope when the DVD's come out Shinsen will try to do a subbing of the Yakk Deculture edition so we can all enjoy the full episode 1.
  7. I did remember that joke and had thought of it when I was first replying to that comment but I decided to assume that it wasn't related. Little did I know Wolfx didn't even know that was a joke, .
  8. No where in the episode does anyone say to cancel a transformation, I looked through when the order to use nukes was permitted and when they actually nuked all the Vajra ships but they don't give mention to the Battle 25 transforming at all.
  9. Someone once suggested Light Aircraft Industries which sounded good. However considering they also make fold boosters and Dimension eaters that name seems unfitting now.
  10. Perhaps as someone once suggested (I forget who) a Macross Royale with Cheese. Here is a possibilities, what we have seen of Macross Galaxy may in fact be the carrier. Who knows.
  11. *claps* Good phrasing. Being a huge transformers fan I know what you mean. I kind of see the Unicron Trilogy as a black mark on TF history and would rather forget it. Some like it though, strange. Transformers was hurt due to puting out series all the time that had lackluster plotlines just so there could be a medium to sell the toys. G1 may have not been written any better at first but you are correct everything that expanded upon it made it better and Beast Wars is still my favorite TF series because its storytelling is great. The new show, Animated, is doing very well and is actually good because they have decided to put out a good show with good story telling and it is paying off. As for Macross it is probably better that there isn't always a Macross something on the air, makes us appriciate it more when we actually have something going on.
  12. To add to that, we know now that Frontier's resources are being stretched and . So I don't know if folding somewhere else is a good idea now as it might eat up energy they need to conserve.
  13. Posters prerogative. The episode discussions can contain anything from that episode I would say, but when you want to get into specifics and not involve anything else then another topic would be the more prudent thing to do *cue Isamu glaring at me for saying prudent*. Nothing wrong with seeing it that way at all. Also some people are just lazy and this topic is here and since it isn't seen as off topic then they can go ahead and post stuff here without making another thread.
  14. The answers to these and many other questions after we have found our lost common sense.
  15. I too was making a joke out of it so there is no problem. Even sometimes I wonder about some of the character theories I see, but then I think about some type of shiny aerospace craft (mech or not) doing something cool and I get over it.
  16. I find this idea of segregation in Macross World to be distasteful. I am an engineer (ok student, but it is close enough) and I like talking about mechanical stuff but I like talking about character things as well. Just because we don't have the same idea on our minds at all times does not make us that different, perhaps it makes us the same...
  17. When did Sheryl become a Valkyrie. We all know Ranka is part Fast Pack but that would be quite fascinating.
  18. MisaForNaught, you must live such an exciting life full of very amazing and unspecific events. Considering you hate speculation even when it is for fun's sake and you don't even want to theorize how something hypothetical may work I wonder what it is you do when you are reading all the stuff on this forum where everyone is guessing what is going to happen or how this did that? Perhaps think of new ways you can get more Klan Klan in your life?
  19. That second statement sounds highly plausible to me actually.
  20. I'm not commenting on Gallia 4 anymore, this looks like one that could go on until next Thursday when the new episode will make us forget it. As for time in learning to fly a Valk. Shin definitely had it down by episode 5 of Zero, at least he was doing pretty decently but before that he was shaky. Hikaru master the VF-1 within 2 months because besides his little jaunt in the VF-1D he never touched one until episode 6. That episode had his first sortie but also they said it was 2 months into their trip which is why they were already at Saturn. The Macross's voyage home was really glossed over in the 10 episodes it happened in considering it was a years time.
  21. It is called plot shield. However I see what you mean, why can't the characters with plot shield fly the same as the CF pilots. The main purpose story wise is it is easier to identify the main heroes in an action scene if their plane is different than the rest. It isn't necessarily saying that the 19 or the 17 is better than the 11.... even though by the numbers they are because they were designed to replace the 11.
  22. Eh, of course it isn't hard sci-fi. That is why such a simple explanation as freezing can work, even if it really wouldn't make sense scientifically. In the end it really doesn't matter. The animators chose not to show mantel spewing out from it or they did decide the planet does not have the same core composition. In this case Kawamori may not even know as he was probably more interested in how the 25 looked with the half-planet backdrop behind it.
  23. I think it just froze still.. there is a lot of heat interally and a big hole opens up and the heat goes out of the hole. Heat likes to travel where it isn't, it moves to where there is less pressure so I think in the few minutes after that part of the planet was cut off a lot of heat escape into space causing the inner liquids to freeze and solidify.
  24. It most likely did have not completely solid core, but when half of the planet is taken away that core is exposed to the deep cold of space. It most likely froze. It is the heat and pressure of the planet's crust that keeps all that so hot. When lava makes its way to the top it eventually solidifies because of cooling. Of course they did say while Gallia 4 has a breathable atmosphere they also said it wasn't inhabitable. Also its rotation is fixed as stated in ep.11 so with no rotation it may very well not have a liquid core. However I would assume it did since it had a stable enough magnetic field to keep the star from roasting the atmosphere off.
  25. Agreed, Ozma's is my favorite and the one you are more likely to see get an armored pack. I'd bet that they make and armored pack for Ozma and a Super for Alto at start and see where it goes from there on whether to do the same for the others. However I can live with that even though I want both packs for Ozma.
