After all perhaps Hikaru and Minmey did have cellphones, they just never thought to use them for some reason.

The cellphones, yeah I love seeing Alto and Ranka chatting over their phones like a couple of lovebird until Sheryl voice came in. :lol:

Is it just me, or did Ranka have a bit of the tan in the scene where she was singing Aimo while the VF-0 was plummeting to the ocean? Her skin looks slightly darker than in the other scenes (even the ones with similar lighting).

Three cheers to the character designers coming up with Sheryl's wardrobe.

Every episode she's been wearing something new and it's quite a treat for the eyes.

Where does the woman/man (Brera's boss?) who meet Leon secretly get the "earing" object that is given to Leon?

I think that is from Sheryl's ear ring that she give/borrow to Alto isn't it?

Why does she/he give that to Leon?

Anyone have any ideas/hints?

I agree, she wears that most interesting cloth. :)

I still finds her hair (color) very fastinating. How it is pink and then blond in strong light. Wish there is something like that in the real world. Must look very funky.

For the record, I found myself eager to watch Macross Zero right after I watched this episode (which I did). Good episode in my book. I say MF is just starting to heat up. All these "feel good" episodes usually means something heart wrenching will happen soon.

It's the same crystal, but I'd be surprised if it was from the ear ring...

On that note though, I wonder if they aren't going to play mixup with the next episode.. Wasn't it Hikaru who missed Minmay's birthday? While it'd be easy for them to do that again, I kind of hope they mix it around some... like, maybe have Ranka missing a birthday due to work.. I kinda doubt it, but it sure would be a different twist.

Btw, the stone that Leon got tossed to him by... hmmm... (is tempted to call him Neo).. anyway, it didn't look at all like the earring, it looked like a rough cut shard, not at all polished. The jewels in the earrings were perfectly smooth. Now, it might be that the shard is all that's left of the earring, and was recovered.. but I seriously doubt it, given what was left of that vajra carrier. ^_^

I'm loving things so far.

I gotta say - i think "hydra" is a poor name for a 4 legged monster with one head and wings. If I was an Eden colonist and encountered a lion-like thing with wings I would have called it a "griffon" or "manticore" or possibly the more generic "chimera'". The Hydra was a multi-headed snake.

No point really. Just that the Eden colonists were not that well versed in classic myths and that I'm a pedant.

First... Next episode

will be about Ranka and Sheryl both trying to make parties for Alto's birthday... and Alto skipping them both, hehe... I believe because each will have their hands full of family matters/work/promotions, etc.

Second, I believe the "agent" (I bet is Grace) was asking Leon for Super Dimension Resonance Crystals (not her words) in exchange of giving him information on the Vajra and the VF-27... The agent gave the sample to Leon to show him what she wanted...

Why would the agent ask for more crystals? I bet they are used in both the VF-27 and the Vajra... (Perhaps as powersource).

Btw... Did Alto got his hair cut short in this episode? I just couldn't notice it, hehe... :wacko:

I agree Hydra makes me think water dwelling creature. Maybe with the destruction of Earth in the first interstellar war mythology got a bit screwed up? :lol:

An okay episode, nice to see some out-of-valk action and Ranka get the fame she deserved. However, if the M0 connection turns out to be simply a red herring or homage, I'll rank this episode a lot higher.
i just watched the Spanish subs.... wasn't sure about this one but when Brere cut the Chimera in half (and we see the guts!)... yeah.... ^_^

and the Kite IS BACK! :lol:

Really? I justed check the distro page on their website they list only .avi which IIRC was less the 1280 x 720. I can't argue that their subs are not good but I want to watch MacF at full rez on my tv not in a window on my desktop.

I was wondering that too, since when did shinsen release a mkv version.

I dunno. I just know I want some sub in HD (720p t least) is welcome and on MP4 (H264) to able to view them on my PS3/LCD TV.

MKV's can be translated to PS3-readable MP4s but the subs are missing. :(
