Zinjo Posted March 6, 2008 Share Posted March 6, 2008 It was the name of the all female squadron in Macross II. I always thought it was the "Fairy Squadron"? Now I'll have to check again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
azrael Posted March 6, 2008 Share Posted March 6, 2008 Alto seems to be on the defensive in this training exercise...poor guy. She's going all out on him. It looks like there's reactive armor on the AP shield with the super parts. Intriguing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zinjo Posted March 6, 2008 Share Posted March 6, 2008 Chapter 3, page 17. A good pic of the VF-25 Battroid with Super Pack Graham If that is the actual size of the gunpod, it makes me wonder if they haven't brought the old 55mm gunpod back....

It looks like there's reactive armor on the AP shield with the super parts. Intriguing. Looks to be the same shield as used on the Armoured Pack. I think the Super and Armoured packs share a few components in common. Graham Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

azrael Posted March 7, 2008 Share Posted March 7, 2008 Looks to be the same shield as used on the Armoured Pack. I think the Super and Armoured packs share a few components in common. The main differences appear to be the boosters and the leg packs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorata Posted March 7, 2008 Share Posted March 7, 2008 I always thought it was the "Fairy Squadron"? Now I'll have to check again. Yep your right I was half asleep. But in some cultures in mythology a pixie and fairy are similar though in most they differ in attitude as a pixie is often the nicer of the two but a prankster where as the fairy was often violent and mischievios in a harmful manner.

ssfsx17 Posted March 8, 2008 Share Posted March 8, 2008 Looks like Ranka's got some serious competition for Alto's heart. The only way Sheryl has a chance to get in on the action is if she partially micronizes by like 10% to 20% or something. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

azrael Posted March 8, 2008 Share Posted March 8, 2008 Hey, is that Breetai on page 33? I think Ranka is imagining that part.... So on one hand, Alto has Sheryl and Ranka to pick from, and on the other, he has scary mini-Meltran wanting to kick his ass....Alto is a freakin chick magnet...He's not pushing the right buttons, he's pushing every button.....

boinger Posted March 8, 2008 Share Posted March 8, 2008 (edited) Here's page 28 and 29 as a splashpage. I did some internet searching on this because I was interested in doing some comic scans for later. I used paint.net. 1. make a "new" blank file 2. click "image", then "canvas size" 3. uncheck maintain aspect ratio 4. type in new pixel dimensions width 2882 length 4000 5. open up each page of scanned comic jpeg in paint.net 6. select all for each page 7. copy onto blank file 8. line up and save as jpeg I shrunk the file down to 523kb with microsoft picture manager Edited March 8, 2008 by boinger Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mike_s_6 Posted March 9, 2008 Share Posted March 9, 2008 Page four, Michael is looking at a pair of eye glasses while wearing one. Is this some sort of artistic "action" thing? Or does he really have two glasses? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(she stutters and pronouces a syllable wrong here) Announcer: Miss Ranka, can you tell us your reason for being in the Miss Macross pageant? Sheryl: Hmmmm, so she followed through with it. Ranka: Yes! p3 Anouncement: Alto Unit has been shot down. Michele: Congradulations Alto-kun!! That's the 25th timee you've gotten promoted to the second level. Alto: Ugh... Michele: So!

You've still got 25 laps to go! [sidetext: What's done is done] Signs: [Clumsy pilot] [Winless] Luca: You sure are evil, Michele-sempai. Michele: Huh? What do you mean? Luca: I'm talking about the difficulty settings for the simulator. I don't know if even I could do it at that level. Michele: It's because he'd easily clear the normal difficulty. Crushing his overconfidence is good anyway. What? [sidetext: gross] But to think that you would understand, you little bastard. p5 Sign: Clumsy pilot Michele: Hey! No cell phone in the middle of training! 25 extra laps! Alto: Ugh! Box: Dear Alto-kun Alto: Damn it! Ranka: Thh-thing I'm good at? Ss-singing! Boxes: Listen to this!

Ozuma: I'm not talking about that. Michele: His skills are good and he's putting effort into it that he hasn't put in anything else before. Ozuma: I see...then it's about time for that. The final test will be this Sunday. Let the newbie know. Luca: Sund...? Michele: That's when the Miss Macross... p10 Announcement: The special judge for today's Miss Macross, Sheryl Nome will-- Miranda: My, if it isn't Nanase from the arts department, are you participating as well? Nanase: Um...no, I just came with someone. [sidetext Nanase: Miranda-san from the entertainment department Ranka: How do you do] Miranda: Hmm? So she is? [condescension sound] Well, do your best. Ranka: I...I think I really don't belong here... Nanase: Do..don't worry! Size doesn't matter! You should just be true to yourself! p11 Ranka: [even more depressed noises] Nanase: Huh!? What's wrong Ranka-san!! Phone: Meow meow Deculture~ [i wonder if Alt is Alto's official name, I don't like it] Box: I'll be late, but will definitely be there. Alto Ranka: Alto-kun... All right! p12 Ozuma: Ok the final test to see if you are fit to be here begins. The rules are easy, just hit your opponent once. Alto: Fine already, just hurry up. Who's gonna fight me?

Announcement: The mock battle between Captain Klan Klan and Second Lieutenant Alto will now commence. A direct hit to Alto's cockpit or a hit to Klan's unit will be considered destruction of the respective units. Luca: Alto-sempai, Captain Klan is extremely skilled! Please be careful! Isn't that right, Michele-sempai? Michele: No comment. p15 Michele: Well, you're fine as long as you aren't hit directly. Just do it with no worries. Alto: Let me out. [Thoughts: That's right--I'll finish this quickly--and go to where she is- -] Uwa...!! From above. p16 Klan: Hmph...seems like you have good instincts. Sign: Zentradi Powered Suit: Quadron Roo Lamda Klan: Otherwise there would be no point to battle! p17 Alto: Ugh...Don't get...!! Too cocky!! Hit her!! p18 Announcement: Then We'll continue with number 14, Miss Ranka Lee. Ranka: Ye...Yes! U-ummm I'm Ranka Lee. How do you d-!! Announcer: So...you're specialty is singing.

You won't win if all you do is run away! p22 Alto: Yeah right... Michele: Alto!! Don't lose your cool!! You're movements are too linear!! You need to weave more-- Alto: Shut up pervert! Michele: Huh?

Sheryl: This year's Miss Macross is--Miss Miranda-- Alto: Ummm, you know, sorry for not making it here in time. p33 Ranka: It's OK. It's my own fault that I was so nervous that I messed up. But you know what, something good happened. Lots of people heard my singing and there were people who even wanted my autograph.
