  1. The idea is based on the notion that planets usually have a molten core. The gravitational pull from a black hole should have deformed the molten core changing the overall shape of the planet. That said, we don't still even know if Galia IV had a molten core. I only know that dimension eaters aren't what you call black holes Yeah. Macross 7 exploited the Supervision Army, Macross Zero exploited the intervention on human evolution and Macross Frontier is exploiting the Super Dimension. They are building above concepts originated from the original series. You forgot about the one inside the glass cylinder in ep. 13. That was bigger than the one in the bush, more similar to those in the concert. I think we can say that the purpose of the second stage is simply to grow bigger. FV
  2. No, DE does not work on the same principles of a black hole. It seems it either draws out a lot of super dimension energy, or throws normal space into super dimension space, but definitively not like a black hole, otherwise Galia IV would have been squeezed, not crunched. There is more to it. Vajra don't seem to have a mind of their own, I guess they are mostly remotely guided via fold comunications, besides maybe some automatic reflexes. The DE is likely to create disturbances in fold comunications (similarly to an EMP), maybe it even shatter their fold quartzes, so it probably it is more effective than a simple physical destruction. FV
  3. By the way, maybe there's a reason why Alto didn't cut his har, it's because his mother also had a tail. FV
  4. Yet it's still kinda a mismatch. What about Japan airlines? FV
  5. Transgender is all the rage in Japan now I heard the most popular character in the last two comicket was Kyonko, from Haruhi FV
  6. At Animesuki though you can actually see who voted what, I don't think this is possible here. FV
  7. It's: Aruran (Alto x Ranka) Arusheri (Alto x Sheryl) Fujoshi Filter (fujoshi are yaoi fangirls who see gay couples even with hetero characters) FV
  8. Japanese TV guides, I think By the way, I'll ask again: are there any hints on the number of episodes? FV
  9. I won't read spoilers, but can someone says how many episodes are left? FV
  10. You forgot when Dr. Chiba invited Gamlin in his room and made him listen to Fire Bomber's songs FV
  11. This is the difference in "emotionality" I talked about. You spend a lot of words to describe the feelings of the characters, you try to get in their heads and such. I am unable to do this and view things from a simpler point of view, which may even sound sarcastic. And while Alto behaves like a tsundere, you can say he is a different type of tsundere. I can see him being aggressive for two reason: 1) he can go to great lengths to help his friends, so his aggressiveness is meant to deter others from overexploiting him. 2) He is good a piloting (and formerly at acting), but he knows he is not an all-rounder guy. I think you can agree that sometimes speculations about what goes in character's heads are more convoluted than plot theories. You are not even the worst one, there are bricks of text long like fanfics here FV
  12. It's not a matter of respect at all, Magnus. Our different kinds of emotionality surely can cause some clash on their own (you are more involved while I am more detatched), but in this case it's a problem of different experience in anime culture. Tsundere it's a term that means someone who is aggressive towards the people he loves before being actually nice. It's the Japanese version of Bipolar Disorder Look for example at what Klan says to Michael in ep. 17: "Who would wait for you?! Isn't it obvious that I just came?" "So, what do you want? I am busy, you know!" I hope you will recognize the same attitude of Alto. This is what being tsundere is about. It doesn't mean you are not conscious of you feelings or you are being indecisive. In this regard, I suggest you to question whether you were seeing too much in Alto's reactions. Technically we don't know whether or not Sheryl has been in love before. I must add that famous people like Sheryl are approached by many persons, so Sheryl has a superior social experience, and she show it. The fear of being rejected can be real, and that's why you go slow. It's not shying away from commitment, it's simply good sense. It can be described as a truce, not as a peace treaty I agree on this I don't know, I am sure it was someone whose nick started with "M" and ended with "orpheus" You are comparing the facade people use for the public and for the people they know. Differencies in the two are quite normal. FV
  13. She killed herself, and that made her more powerful than we could possibly imagine Good nurses FV
  14. This usually happens in the beginning, social approaches are as indirect as possible to allow both parties to retreat without harm. He was annoyed and tug around by her. Just because someone is interested into you it doesn't mean you can accept all of her crap. Also I don't know what's with this idea that if one has feelings for another the feelings must be automatically returned Well, that's part of the game The anime is about the process of falling in love. If the two actually fell in love the next episode would be jumping the shark. Have you ever considered that? No. Sheryl is in touch with her emotions, she perfectly knows she wants Alto and she has a go-getter personality. No, she played her kiss with Alto as a joke for the reason stated above, to allow both parties to retreat without harm. At the same time this was an act of commitment. It takes awhile to be physically comfortable to the touch of another person, and after having reached a certain level all previous levels are unlocked. Sheryl forced a liplock, and then retreat in the safe zone. She sent the message that she is interested and available. I think not even Alto failed to notice that. It was a master move. He is almost always stand-offish I mean, he is tsundere. Don't you know how it works? The problem I see with that situation is that Sheryl has too much energy, and thus it is clearly dominating simply by initiative. Alto instead is trying to gain control of his life by chosing to pilot a Valkyrie instead of acting, so he has qualms with a dominating personality. Ranka is meek, but that makes her easygoing. I am troubled in describing psychology at this level. People's behaviour is a mixture of inter-related internal and external factors. Will we see another part (a side or a core) of Sheryl, that is a part of Sheryl that was always there, or another Sheryl, that is she can no longer be the person she was? Regardless, it's still better than hear Sheryl's character being described as inconsistent. That's really comes out of nowhere FV
  15. Sorry, but I think there is some social naivety here Sheryl's strongness has never been a hindrance in getting nearer Alto. Keep in mind that if the purpose of life is transmitting your genes to future generations, stronger genes are always more desirable than others. The strongness causes the initial attraction, which prompts investment in another person. Only after this phase you can relax and act like you will have the support and assistance of the other person without make him feel like you are exploiting him. I am saying this as a general rule of thumb though, there are many things else which can cause attraction, but there is indeed what could be described as "if you want to get, first look like you are able to give". If you look at the anime, the moment Alto seemed closer to Ranka was in ep. 13, and he was telling her "I don't ever know if you are shy or brave". The possibility of "strongness" caused the attraction. FV
  16. Sorry, only Graph for now Miang does not seem to be popular in fan art FV
  17. You forget the FAST Pack connection And then there was someone who was still unsure Grace was a spy ("Sheryl said she just likes to snoop around, she can't be Agent G") FV
  18. This is misleading as well. It should read: the usage of fairly common shots in Macross Zero and Frontier FV
  19. Aaand.... another vote for Frontier's Macross Cannon Lockers are for the corpses of my enemies FV
  20. On Pixiv alone there are about 2000 キラッ☆ pics By the way, found another Golgo 13 one (sorry, there's no bigger size) FV
  21. According to the picture someone posted in another thread, Sheryl's bloodtype is Alpha, not Alpha Bombay FV
  22. Well, the taxi driver in ep. 18 was Howard Glass, it could be simple recycle of chara FV
  23. But these are demographically the most relevant territories, unless I am mistaken FV
