  1. Since they unveiled a preliminary valk sketch last October, have an tie-in image single dropping this month, and it’s been mentioned on the Speakerpodcast how production is progressing, I’m not too sure where you’d get that impression from. Fortunately, it’s still happening :-)
  2. You’ll be happy to know then that a second movie has been announced and is indeed currently being worked on :-)
  3. This episode, Save walks us through the experience of bringing legendary character designer/animator/illustrator Tomonori Kogawa to a US con for the first time. We also have all the latest Macross news as well as a little bit of speculation on where the new movie is at. https://www.decultureshock.com/speakerpodcast-ep-136-tomonori-kogawa-anime-los-angeles/
  4. Well Kawamori did say on television just a little under a year ago that he had concept for a Macross 7 sequel that he was interested in doing. Which would make sense given how Basara is the 2nd most popular character in the entire franchise. Will he actually do it though? Personally, I doubt it. But the hope that Fire Bomber will return to our screens one day springs eternal :-)
  5. Just FYI, that’s a bootleg.
  6. Iconic, yes. MOST iconic? No. A sequel to Frontier or 7 would make more sense financially, and of the two, Kawamori has said that he does have an idea for the latter. (Although it’s equally unlikely that anything will come of that either, in my opinion) https://www.decultureshock.com/nhks-ultimate-macross-poll/
  7. Ever want to hear a rendition of Macross Frontier’s “Lion” by members of the Seatbelts (Cowboy Bebop) featuring Yoko Kanno dancing in a bathtub? https://twitter.com/misawamataro/status/1249335400180510722?s=21
  8. Hope you enjoy it! Unfortunately the front page has been under new management for several years now so you’ll have to ask the MW admins. After discussions with the owner of MW, it was decided that our content be moved over to decultureshock.com along with the cast. Some of the bugs are still being worked out but hopefully you can find anything you’re looking for there :-) While Renato can speak to this better than I can, since he has worked with the man, it’s my understanding that Itano-san is very vocal whenever it comes to any criticisms he may have. He has gone on record with disagreeing with several elements of Macross though (and even declared that a 5-second cut he did for Macross Plus also almost made him swear off animating by hand ever again. Almost. ;-)
  9. ‪Coming June 20, the next Valkyrie Master File book, “VF-1S Roy Focker Special”.‬ ‪https://www.amazon.co.jp/dp/4815605297/ref=mp_s_a_1_1?dchild=1&keywords=マスターファイル&qid=1585747379&sr=8-1‬
  10. Time to catch up on some news and events! :-) https://www.decultureshock.com/speakerpodcast-ep-135-superdimensional-meets/
  11. Because the 31, which appears in Zettai Live!!!!!! is derived from the 30 - any excuse to sneak in a promotion for the new movie ;-)
  12. Who would've thought that an official Lego exhibit would one day include Valkyries :-) https://www.decultureshock.com/piece-of-peace-exhibit/
  13. Photo gallery from today's popup shop. https://www.decultureshock.com/oshare-macross-gaiden-macross-boys-2-popup-shop/
  14. During tonight’s 3rd Anniversary live stream for Macross Won’t Stop, a new Walkure single (an “image song” leading up to the eventual release of the new Zettai Live!!!!!! movie) was announced. Titled “The future belongs to women”, the new single will go on sale on May 27 and include 2 new songs and 1 remix. The first run of the single will include footage of Walkure’s performance at last year’s Flying Dog Festival. A free mini-concert to promote the single will be held at Hankyu Nishinomiya Gardens in Osaka on April 26. https://www.jvcmusic.co.jp/flyingdog/-/News/A025373/3.html
  15. I have to admit, that impression is probably due to our own coverage bias ^^; There’s too many products to take pictures of overall and we tend to focus on the niche stuff that either we’re interested in or else think will be of interest to ppl that visit decultureshock. Wonder Festival encompasses 8 convention halls and what we cover is but a fraction of that :-) That particular kit is a fan creation, I think. It caught my attention due to looking like a cross between Einhander and Metal Gear :-)
  16. All the latest pics from today's Wonder Festival - direct from the show floor! http://www.decultureshock.com/wonder-festival-2020-winter/
  17. To answer some questions: →The new animated content on the disc clocks in at approx. 15mins. →The event on the 14th is a live audience broadcast of Macross Won’t Stop as well as (I think) a screening of a bit of the bluray. →The greater amount of content on the disc is not really similar to the 20th Ann. disc and is more like a 3hr long episode of Macross Won’t Stop.
  18. I realise you’re joking (lol) but realistically I doubt they had much in the way of resources. Still, the way Itano has expanded on it just a bit to give it a teeny bit of narrative is very cool imo :-)
  19. No, that’s from the previous movie (the 2nd in the current trilogy).
  20. The disc does not contain subtitles because the bulk of it is ad-libbed talks and games. The animated bonus materials do not have anything in them that would require subtitles as far as I remember.
  21. The bonus (animation) footage takes up 10-15 mins of the discs total runtime. Eve of War is significantly changed from its original version according to Ichiro Itano recently. The remaining 3hrs is the cast of Macross Won’t Stop getting up to various shenanigans. Hopefully ppl will refrain from posting the content of the disc online, given the effort that went into many of the shorts included.
  22. Just posted some pics of todays amazing kit bashed 1:20 VF-1S Battroid. http://www.decultureshock.com/tengu-modelers-2019/
