The Macross SpeakerPODcast crew have seen the remastered Macross Plus Movie Edition! Before we get to that though, we discuss new books, figures and toy news, Macross the Museum and the bluray release of FB7. Also, the return of the Macross Voxpop! Introducing…. Nobby?
Macross SpeakerPODcast returns, this time with special guest, Anime News Network‘s own EGAN LOO! (This means we’re legit now or something, right?). You might know him better as the author of the original Macross Compendium.
We reveal the secret behind Macross 30’s extras and check out Yamato Toy’s old office.
Oh yeah, we also meet some guy called Shoji Kawamori.
With the final (that we know of) 30th Anniversary events drawing to a close, we decided to try something special this episode by renting/recording in the special Firebomber-themed karaoke room at Ikebukuro Joysound.
As such, the sound is little different than usual, but hey, what better ambience for a Macross podcast than rooms full of people singing Firebomber and Frontier songs in the background while we discuss our impressions of The MUSICALTURE, the FB7 movie, Firebomber live in concert, the VF-4G, Macross 30, and the fateful day when Renato, Gubaba, Yoshiki Fukuyama and a bag full of Orgus VHS tapes collided….literally!
Also, this episode features another Macross Voxpop, as well as the debut of MW poster Antibiotictab!
WARNING – Part 1 includes spoilers for Evangelion Q (3.0). And yes, we forgot to tell the ‘Lego story.’
From the far flung past of September 2012 comes… EPISODE 6 of MACROSS SPEAKERPODCAST!
After the craziness that was last episodes M.ALTcast, the crew takes things down a notch to discuss the first set of 30th Anniversary events.
Hear what Miyatake has to say about Macross on Bluray, Richard’s encounter with Aya Endo, why Chie shouldn’t wear pink, and Renato’s first hand account of Noboru Ishiguro’s Memorial Service.
Also debuting this episode is the very first MACROSS VOX POP. These are small, 5 minute interviews that members of the cast do with fellow Macross fans that they stumble across in Japan.
The gang is back together with special guests Matt Alt and Patrick Galbraith for a drunken cacophony of sushi shirts, the moepocalypse, Renato’s Grandmother and the truth about Matt’s relationship with Lord Graham.
Oh and there’s something about Macross 7 and Frontier in there too. Sorta. I think.
The chaos simply couldn’t be contained, so I ended up splitting the cast in two:
