dang at this point it could end up being the spirit of Ranshe for all we know, which could wake Ranka from her stuper and make her realize what a psycho genocide crazy girl she's been :ph34r: but yeah I was sorta wondering if it might be Minmei but not sure if that would really be the "culture shock" they mention. So who knows at this point. Though a huge concert with Basara/Minmay/Sheryl would be awesome lol

serious........I read somewhere in the thread that there was a unknown shadow beside Sheryl on Frontier's stage??

Why who else, but her mysterious mentor, the one singer who inspired her and who taught her the power of song...

...NEKKI BASARA!

Why are people still waiting for the culture shock? That already happened in the last episode: Ranka sang Ai Oboete Imasuka, then the fleet got a face full of beam spam and blew up while everyone was wondering what the heck she was doing.

I think it's going to be Sara, come to take her grand-niece away from all the pain. :) And then she'll blow everyone up with her finger.

No, no, no. He was crushed by the collapse of the Studio Nue offices on South Ataria Island just after Hikaru Ichijo rammed through it in a transforming VF-1D.

(Remember: TV series story, movie designs!)

This can never happen. SK was crushed to death by a Zentran Power Armor while trying to get Minmei's autograph in the SDF-1's concert green room, remember?

I agree there was already that shock, just how earlier snippets of info made it seem as if it would come when the whomever person showed up on the bridge so who knows. I just didn't see it so much as a "culture" shock as just a plain WTF shock haha

but yeah Sara showing up would be pretty pimp

Definitely recommend getting the new November 2008 issue of Hobby Japan magazine. Not only does it have a Macross Frontier cover, but it also features a 47 page article on the Macross Frontier kits and toys and CG mecha art.

Beautiful builds of the 1/72 Alto VF-25F and Ozma VF-25S are shown along with custom conversions of Micheal's VF-25G and Luca's RVF-25 and a scratch build variable VF-27.

There are of course some interesting new pics of the 1/60 DX.

There are also the largest CG pics published so far of many of the mecha, including the VF-171EX, Vajra carriers and others, which I'm sure Mr. March will love.

Oh and a custom Yamato VB-6 in SMS scheme is also shown, complete with Ranka nose art.

Got the street date for that issue of Hobby Japan? Got to make a note of it since any mag issues with Macross in it tends to disappear really quickly from my local Japanese bookstore.

Just out today in HK, so probably out yesterday or the day before in Japan.

Cool. Thanks Graham.

*sigh* Looks like I'd be making another depressing trip in to the city for it then, though I won't be surprised if they're all sold out already. It's the very reason I haven't picked up vol 1 of the manga yet. They were wiped out in a matter of seconds of hitting the shelves.

I'm not sure but looks like some secuence...

1.- Sheryl's face looks scared of the vajra carrier that is about to shoot over the Battle Frontier bridge

2.- Macross Quarter save the day

3.- All are friends again and charge against the little queen and the mad scientist

Preview pics for episode # 25 up on the official Frontier site.

Graham

Finally... ^_^

Well, what we have here?

I increased the size of the pics and it seems that:

1) The first pic has Battle Frontier being saved from a Vajra carrier by a shot from the Quarter apparently...

2) The second pic has Sheryl back at singing. I noticed there's a huge fleet in the background... Was the Frontier fleet that big? (specially after the Vajra counterattack during Ranka's culture shock...). Perhaps the rumors of NUNS reinforcements weren't wrong afterall...

3) The third one has Battle Frontier attacking surrounded by a huge fleet and Canaria's VB-6 Monster in the front... I guess this means that the SMS pirates will return to Frontier to help fight the Vajra...

Maybe Macross 7 fleet came to help. ;)

Well i guess Leon is overthrown eventually and Quarter assumes command of the fleet. As for the extra ships, possibly those are all in the Frontier fleet.

Canaria's VB6 and the rest of the VF-25s look suspiciously like the same overlay used in episode 14, with Quarter in the background instead. Anyone can confirm?

The first pic reminds me of a scene from DYRL, during he final battle with Bodolza fleet, a Zentran gunship rush into Macross while opening its main gun and was shot down before it could fire it.

Hmm, I'm expecting captain Wilder to announce "This is Macross Quarter, from now on we will protect Battle Frontier, anyone else who is listening to Sheryl song, bring culture back to us" :lol:
