HWR MKII Posted January 23, 2005 Share Posted January 23, 2005 I have M7 Dynamite on the way. can anyone tell me if the animation quality is any better or worse than the TV series. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Radd Posted January 23, 2005 Share Posted January 23, 2005 Dynamite still doesn't have great animation, and there are several times where they just put still frames to music, but overall it's prettier than the tv series. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ewilen Posted January 23, 2005 Share Posted January 23, 2005 Hm, I thought the animation in Dynamite was pretty good...but I've only watched it once. About the general "M7 has crappy battle animation" rap, even aside from Dynamite, I don't think it's entirely warranted. True, there is a lot of bad animation in battle sequences, but there are also some battle sequences that I felt were done quite well in the series. I'm especially thinking of the episodes featuring Millia's VF-1. Though, again, I've only gone through most of the series once. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keith Posted January 23, 2005 Share Posted January 23, 2005 I'd go as far to say 7's battle animation was no worse than its contemporary, Gundam Wing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Radd Posted January 23, 2005 Share Posted January 23, 2005 I'd say that the overall animation of the Macross 7 series is better and more consistent than SDF Macross, however most of the quality seems to be with the character and non-battle animation. Most of the recycled battle animations are very poor indeed, wich I can imagine does not sit well with those of us who were spoiled by the Itano Circus. There are exceptions, of course. Some of the battle animation in a few key scenes, animation that could not be reused, wasn't too shabby. Also, the transformation of Battle 7 was always a treat.

MilSpec Posted March 7, 2005 Share Posted March 7, 2005 WARNING: SPOILERS AHEAD After receiving my FX M7 boxset in the mail over 3 months ago I've finally managed to get through all 49 episodes and the Encore eps. It took me so long because as many have said before the early part of the show is too slow and the middle gets very repetitive. However I feel as if there was a payoff in the last 10-20 episodes. Some of my favourites were episodes 44 ('Nightmarish Invasion') with its star wars style dog fight and the follow up ep 45 ('Ambitious 4th Planet'). These had some truly heart wrenching and spectacular moments. I just wish Gamlin had stayed dead. Episode 44 would have been much more significant and special that way and would have increased my respect for the whole show. It would have reduced the invincible superhero mecha angle that they seemed to have going, which I hated. Episode 37 ('Mystery of the Space Ruins?') was another redeeming point for the series. It really extended the story of Macross and better explained a few things. Its good to see these explained in canon rather than reading them second hand on the Macross Compendium. Mylene was the standout character in terms of style with the staff obviously taking great care in animating her. I mean she had multiple new outfits in almost every episode. How often does that happen in anime? Although she started off annoying I really got to like her (not in THAT way!) by the end of the show. I agree with most here that the battle animation sucked and the Sound Force designs were a bit too out there. VF-11s in the show went beyond the definition of cannon fodder!! The music is pretty great imo. I mean better than you're average anime soundtrack, something a little different and Fire Bomber make the Jamming Birds sound like the J-Pop candyasses they are! I suspect the producers purposely made the Jamming Birds' only song sound as weak and lame as possible just to make Fire Bomber sound better but hey there were some great Fire Bomber songs in there, for anime. I really hated how the love triangle wasn't resolved however the Encore episode 'Which do you Love' was hilarious with Millia interfering. Great stuff! Encore ep "Fleet of Strongest Women" was just cool. Especially the Mylene version of the DYRL? ending. I mean this had some decent battle animation for once and a few very cool mecha with new animation (Armored VF-11C). Overall I happily recommend Macross 7 for all its flaws as a legitimate Macross sequel. Let's Fire!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Desram Posted March 8, 2005 Share Posted March 8, 2005 You know, based on average interenet reviews I had decided to never watch Macross 7. But after this thread, combined with the thought that I endured Macross II when I was 12 (which was a feat, let me tell you), maybe I'll give it a watch. Max and Milia were my favorites anyways.

Macross 7 is genreally a love it or hate it show. People have very strong opinions about it. The "hate its" are just a lot louder, as is usual.
