I clearly know very little Japanese, but (on second viewing) it sure seemed like Ranka (aboard the Quarter) was explaining that it was the Vajra singing. Minmay's name doesn't seem to be mentioned at all, and Mari isn't listed in the credit sequence (atleast not that I saw, but the video was iffy).

Its a mistranslation of... something. Basically, its referring to the grey aura that surrounds Sheryl's head when she collapses on the bridge stage.

I dunno, didn't seem like it.

So, going by the dialog in episode 24, and what we saw in episode 25, it sounds as if Richard Bilrer was expecting to actually meet Lynn Minmay on this planet. "Soon... Soon I'll be able to meet you."

Too bad we know next to nothing about him.

Ranshe, Ranka, and Brera, with Dr Mao Nome in the background Miss Lynn Minmay, as seen in Dicky B's locket-ring

Yes, my epeen is fully engorged and satisfied! Now be a good Misaforever and bring Misa back to us. This Klan business isn't working for me.

Anyone else notice the Galaxy fleet (including the Galaxy colony ship) is totally unaccounted for?

The original SDF Macross has something the other two series don't; we get to see the after effects of the climactic battle. Reconstruction is a large part of what makes the series classic. Its the most "adult" of the three.

No, man, you're confusing Macross Minmay with Robotech Minmay.

I was right that I was right!

I would say most of it got blasted.

Yes, a bigger, badder queen. LOL Anyone want to still insist on there being a king?

Pffft, son, I posted this action up a day before you did.

The animation was inconsistent, and on a few occasions quite poor. With a few exceptions (Sheryl, Alto, Ranka), the character designs were bland to horrible. The story comes off as very convoluted and unfocused. Its target audience was a bit younger than I would have liked. However, the mecha action was top notch and the music was solid. And as convoluted as the story was, for the most part, it kept your attention. Also, coming out of this series Sheryl is my second favorite Macross character. That chick's got the guts of Guld. In the end, the story is left unresolved. And I'm not talking about the "triangle". I guess we'll have to wait and see. If I had my choice, I'd give Frontier an incomplete, but for now I'll just give the TV series itself a 7.

Some of you guys are so caught up in these Macross 7 concepts. Totally unrelated.

No no, they were drawn to her singing, they came to this galaxy to communicate with us. Aimo is their song.

Dicky B has a picture of Minmay in his ring, like some sort of locket-ring. That's who he wanted to see, thought he was going to see. And then we have this mysterious voice singing Aimo, I just don't know.

I think Morph posted it earlier, about the Vajra being drawn to this galaxy by Minmay's song, well then hell, that's the story right there.

Grandfather, she is 1/4 Zentran. But that picture looked a hell of alot like Minmay to me.

BUT WHO WAS SINGING IT! AAAAARRRRRRRRGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!

Everyone is so focused on this triangle thing, and really, who cares? WTF is up with Minmay? And Dicky B. And NUNS. And the Vajra. And Aimo. Double U Tee Eff!

Plus and 7 didn't have a love triangle conclusion, either.

Oooh, hmmm, I had not thought of that. In IRC, a whole bunch of people said, "Minmay!", and I was totally WTF! Then Dicky B is popping open his Minmay ring, and I was totally WTF! And then someone said, "Ranshe", and I was confused and said, WTF?

Must... know... who... was... singing... AIMO!
