I'm not grumpy, I'm just disenchanted. Doesn't mean I am going to stop watching it.

*raises hand* Had nothing to do with Klan though.

Or you could have been in the IRC channel and gotten an on the fly translation as we watched.

A story, any story. And why did the Gundam preview at the end of it look 20 times better than Frontier?

Seriously, this show makes no sense to me now.

Kawamori is responsible for the mecha designs in the Armored Core franchise. That and the insane amount of customization is what always attracted me to the series, the action itself isn't all that great.

I told you, you had to go to episode 7. You may be the only person on MW who does not love the series!

Well, if its on the PC version, I am going to assume part of it is a coding problem/decision, and I don't think 360 owners of ME should expect this to fix the issue.

I haven't had time to check this out, really. 5 episodes in, what do you guys think about this show?

I mean, this is 2008, this is the best they can do for G13? I've seen episodes of Sponge Bob Square Pants that intrigued me more than the first episode. I was just really disappointed.

I think Alto goes off on his own, and one way or the other Ranka and Sheryl end up together (as singers?). I don't think there is any love outside of friendship at the end of this show. However, if I had my choice, I'd have Alto and Sheryl together.

Max, Milia, everyone else.

Someone feel free to correct me if I am wrong, but having watched a decent amount of anime in my time, I found most sound effects come from Hollywood films.

I just can't bring myself to watch more of this right now.

Being "gar" doesn't mean being manly. The term comes from a misspelling of "gay". The idea being, a male character did something so manly, so heroic, that you were able to suspend your heterosexual-ness. I think this originated on 4chan, but don't quote me on this. For instance, Gurren Lagann fans could be said to be "gar for Kamina". I guess it could be said that a character being "gar" means he is acting in such a way to make you "gar" for them, but that's not how the term originated.

Guld, by a mile. If for some very strange reason you voted for Michel, go back and watch Plus again. Especially the movie version. Man, I just don't know how you could vote for anyone over Guld here.

There used to be a website, don't recall the name. Late 90's, that had hundreds if not thousands of anime wavs. Pretty sure its long since gone.

Watched the first episode. The animation is a bit painful, and I was kinda shocked by the pipe laying session. Wasn't expecting that in a TV show. Does the show have any sort of story arch, or is it a mission an episode?

Not really, but hey, whatever. Following the box office is kind of silly.

Honestly, you can probably make up just about anything you want with what you have seen. When it comes to Macross, there isn't alot of continuity when it comes to tech.

Man, if I said it once, I said it a thousand times. For the life of me I do not understand why a series such as this (or say, Eureka 7) can look so good, but somehow they are unable to even come close when it comes to the newest entry of the Macross franchise.

Veritech, indeed! Anywho, here we have another example of tech in Macross that Kawamori and company have given little to no thought about. Don't ever expect to see any consistency within each series, let alone the entire franchise.

Usually you can upgrade after a year and a half.

Reliability, you hit the nail on the head.
