Speaking of the Sharon Apple concert, Marj's leaping off the SDF after blowing his wad while molesting Sharon's cpu tower has got to rank pretty high.

Yes, be patient. I thought it was very repetitive, cheesy and had horrible animation. The mech battles are laughable. If you're looking for action, this series does satisfy. Almost every episode went like this: 1. fire bomber practicing or in concert, 2. PD fold in for attack, 3. Basara flies in and sings for them, 4. PD fold out. That said, after finishing the series, I grew to like and enjoy the characters. Although I will never respect Basara as a top caliber pilot, I was thoroughly entertained by him. I really liked Gamlin with his determination and dedication even though he wasn't too sharp in other ways. I personally didn't care for this series, but I did find it enjoyable in some ways and it is Macross. So, if you're a Macross fan you should check it out. And if you like Frontier, you'll be able to appreciate the M7 references in it.

I just realized this, but if you look at episode 13, the creature that pops out of the bushes at Alto and Ranka in the forest is a small version of those things sitting in the stands at the concert...

Lol @ Audition reference... *shudder*

I'm sure she could. I just think that there has to be some significance to her taking pilot classes. Personally, I think it would be awesome to see her kicking @ss as a pilot. She already has the attitude for it.

I can see Michael eating the pineapple salad. Either by the Vajras or the conspirators. Sheryl's been getting pilot training and we were reminded of that recently (don't remember the episode #). I believe there's a reason for it. Therefore, it would stand to reason that a VF would need to be freed up for her ala Gilliam. What else is she going to do if she does in fact give up singing?...
