Gubaba

so wait; if klan is 1 and millia is 3, then who is number 2?

Did you see his username?

I just want to see cool dogfights with a great soundtrack, no matter who's involved.

Noob question: was FB2012 originally set up in year 2019? If so why did they change it to 2012?

The question goes because the characters look older compared to those in SDF Macross tv series.

No, it was originally 2012, but in some ancillary documents got changed to 2018 for Macross II. Lord knows why.

Yeah, didn't someone said they want to get away from the whole UN thing for copyrights reason?

I have no inside info here or anything, but I kind of doubt that... After all, Mihoshi High had a VF-1 (with UN Spacy kite) on its frickin' roof...

MW discussing Macross Delta.

MW discussing Macross toys.

Careful... Those Anti-Delta people might attack...

Oooookaaaay, probably about time to lock the thread again until December 31st....

+1

what the.... im just gonna pretend I never watched that. Thanks Gubaba..

That's your prerogative... But it IS Natasha Lyonne.

Isn't she NEAT!?

Natasha Lyonne? Hell yeah, she is!

And bonus... Kawamori's File 3 pic:

She's just the nicest. Most bestest and sweetest.

now that I need to see.

Your wish is my command...

lol, really guys, it wasn't a good transfer, no pointing out it's a proper remaster vs. upscale is going to change anything.

it really reminds me of Sony's ps3 smoothing technique where Sony was trying to defeat edge enhancement(and they used an anime as reference material to develop the tech). it just made the picture look soft.

lol.

wha.. what is that!? no please don't be a singing dancing Valkyrie.. that's frightening!

Hey, better than Kawamori's pic for volume 2, which shows the VF-25 and VF-27 making out.

Well, Macross doesn't exactly have a happy history with virtual idols.

They tend to take over experimental autonomous attack drones.

Oh, pshaw... Plenty of celebrities want to use their status to help change the world. Sharon was just more proactive than most.

lol

No, it really wasn't.

From Nyan-Cret File 1:

It's in one of the Nyan-kuretto books. They made three, I don't know which one of them it is.

There was a scan on this forum, that's how I found out about it, but I don't know which thread. Happy hunting

I have them close by (I think...). I'll pull them out and see what I can find.

EDIT: and I'll post them in the art thread so as not to clutter this one up even more.

NO what if the var symdrome transform the girls into valks??

I floated that exact idea on the SpeakerPodcast about a year and a half ago...

Whether I like it or not (and I'm pretty sure I will... I like pretty much everything Macross, except FB7... And even that was almost saved by the final concert scene and the blu-ray extras), I hope it's a massive hit.

At the very least, with Thomas Romain doing the "world design," it should be interesting to look at.

Of course.

It's too bad their forums are gone. I wonder how they'd react to this.

I've seen a few reactions in some of the Facebook groups. Most of them aren't saying anything, but among the vocal ones, most are saying it's probably going to be bad or not their thing.

Only one guy I've seen (so far, at least) has suggested adapting it as a new Robotech series.

Wait, varl as in "sounds like snarl"? Or maybe a mispronunciation of vowel? Yeah, "Vowel Syndrome" and perhaps everyone stops being able to use consonants. Wow, that could be terrible!

That's not far off from Aquarion Logos...

And yeah, sounds like snarl. It's ヴァール, whereas "Var" would probably be ヴァー.

I'd say "Varl" rather than "Var," and the "va" here is spelled differently than the "va" in "Varauta," so I doubt there's a connection.

Stop showing off Gubaba. We know you're a big star but you don't have to brag! Geez.

Just trying to turn the thread in a more positive direction...

“Critics who treat 'adult' as a term of approval, instead of as a merely descriptive term, cannot be adult themselves. To be concerned about being grown up, to admire the grown up because it is grown up, to blush at the suspicion of being childish; these things are the marks of childhood and adolescence. And in childhood and adolescence they are, in moderation, healthy symptoms. Young things ought to want to grow. But to carry on into middle life or even into early manhood this concern about being adult is a mark of really arrested development. When I was ten, I read fairy tales in secret and would have been ashamed if I had been found doing so. Now that I am fifty I read them openly. When I became a man I put away childish things, including the fear of childishness and the desire to be very grown up.”

― C.S. Lewis

It's a hobby forum, these reactions from all sides are quite normal I reckon.

Not saying you're wrong, but C.S. Lewis was kind of an idiot.
