  1. My favorite Itami movie is "Marusa no Onna 2." It reveals the dark side of the bubble era in Japan. I experienced that crazy booming economy times, so it is so interesting. And his "Osoushiki"; the Funeral. I recommend both it and Yojiro Takita's "Departures"; Okuribito, which won the 81th Academy Award for Best Foreign Language Film. I also like his "Onmyoji." Nomura Mansai acts Abeno Seimei. That Seimei was AWESOME... Yeah, Ken Watanabe was so young! And he had hair at that time because it was before his suffering from leukemia.
  2. Oh, you watched Detroit Metal City? It is must-see. So fun ,so I like it so much! And as I said before, Gene Simmons appears in the movie, but not just a cameo. He acts a very important character. Moreover, the heroine of the movie is Rosa Kato! EXO, you gotta watch it! Go to DMC! lol And "The Incite Mill," oh! the theme song of the movie, "Shinjite Miru" was sung by May'n. Did you notice that? I recommend it for May'n's fans here. Basically I like amusing movies. How about "THERMAE ROMAE?" A Roman in the Five Good Emperors' era comes to modern Japan. So funny. And I recently watched 「探偵はBARにいる」"Tantei ha Bar ni Iru"; "The Detectives Are in the Bar." It was so good. I don't like Takeshi Kitano's movies except "Zatoichi."
  3. I remember the word "J-pop" started spreading in 1993 or so. So, "1980s J-pop" is a funny usage for the people who have been staying in Japan. Fire Bomber's songs were not in the style. The Hip Hop and Shibuya-kei mixed style was so popular then; in 90s when M7 was being aired. The typical songs are like those. "Kon-ya ha Boogie Back" http://youtu.be/HSQNaXBjA5c "DA.YO.NE" http://youtu.be/JhF_HQRuufE Yeah, the sound came from George Benson's "Turn Your Love Around."
  4. Googled. From the 3rd album "Heat," track #11. The "Animelo Summer Live 2012" digest movie will be aired on Niconico Live. From 9 pm, Mar 19 (JST); 5 am in LA. For 3 hours. http://otalab.net/news/detail.php?news_id=3104 The Macross related artists are May'n and Yuuka Nanri (Mao Nome in Macross Zero). You can watch it from the link below. http://live.nicovideo.jp/watch/lv127625236 I personally want to watch Hiroko Moriguchi, Yui Kaori, ST☆RISH and Minori Chihara, too...
  5. KotouRanka-san. http://youtu.be/P3gHz59ZIhc
  6. Yeah, the falling outs have been occurring in the both sides. We can understand it from the words. Shima says, "we suspend the Yamato project from now on because the chances of this one are extremely low." On the other hand, Hiss said,"Fuehrer Dessler was assassinated!" And Gimmler(?) regarded someone as a suspect. Disruption, may be.
  7. It is the wave motion bulwark; 波動防壁. It probably uses the wave motion power assuming from its name. I translate the original word directly into English, sorry if the terminology is different from the subbed one. Just like the SWAG Energy Converting Armor from the Macross technologies? But Yamato seems to have more powerful one. And a similar technology also appears in Gundam Seed.
  8. 花粉症の時期ですな・・・。マスクは甘え?

  9. I wonder how many modelers would try to make the Macross 30 Valks. Leon's YF-25s, the Ita-Valks and... the scratch built YF-30s? Aside from Macross, there will be so many Yamato 2199 and Girls und Pantzer plamodels this year. I wonder I can go there...
  10. Hahahaha...ha. How long do we have to wait for it outside of the building the next time? It depends if it is just a signing event or not. If he draws something, 13 hours waiting will pay off.
  11. Well, I just wanted to say about the importance of the day for the Battleship Yamato and Space Battleship Yamato. In 2199, the wrecked Yamato is just an imitation, but the creators of the anime may have paid homage to the Yamato in WWII and the day. Because of that part of the video, many Japanese fans have sentimental feelings toward the Yamato in WWII, after all Space Battleship Yamato's boom was so awesome in the late 70s. "A social phenomenon," it was. Almost the same thing is that pixer's “Cars” and Route 66's story. I recently know about Route 66. Many of us here don't know it, but in America, the people understand what the creators want to say immediately. To know the background knowledge of its story is so interesting. It's all I want to say...
  12. I found a free Gunslinger Stratos booklet of Famitsu at a game center (an arcade, in English) in Tokyo. Megumi Nakajima is on the top page. I like this picture and an idea came to my mind. Now, Nakajima-san and Ranka-chan are on my desk.
  13. 0422... Around Mitaka city. Hmm. Ghibli Musium is in Mitaka, but the shop is afraid of using its characters like Nausicaa, Kiki, and so on... And better than that Evangelion billboard... At least you and Tochiro know it, you know what I mean... It is also in front of a pachinko shop.
  14. Only who has a Niconico account can watch this video, but I highly recommend it. http://www.nicovideo.jp/watch/sm19370584 I was just like him during the Eva Q preview...
  15. No information about the "OrenoUtawoIkebukurodeKike!" event? On March 16 at Cinema Sunshine in Ikebukuro. http://www.bandaivisual.co.jp/macrossfb7/news.html The tickets are still available. The attendees are Amino-san, Kanna-san (Basara), Sakurai-san (Mylene), and Touyama-san (Gavil).
  16. Yamato 2199 started screening from Apr 7, 2012 and will start broadcasting from Apr 7, 2013. Yes, Apr 7 was THE DAY the battleship Yamato sank in 1945... Starblazers fans may not know the scenes from Yamato below.
  17. Here's the set list what I translated. The source is 2 channel. A direct translation. I don't know the terminologies the fans are using at all. --- 636 :名無しの歌姫:2013/03/02(土) 21:12:06.82 ID:1ZwR/QOkP 終わったぜー ほいセトリ アオゾラ ジュエルズ Welcome to(ry スカバレ ジャイステ mc1 アネモネ hero ブレダイ mc2 RYB エリクシア mc3 もし君 (バンドパフォーマンス) ノーザン 射手座 mc4 xyz dolce パラノイア mc5 my teens,my tears ライオン mc6(CandR) MSFS chase the world アンコール 恋 会えないとき キミシニ Wアンコール 愛降る --- 1,Aozora 2,Jewels 3,Welcome to My Fanclub's Night 4,Scarlet Ballet 5,Giant Step 6,mc1 7, Anemone 8, Hero 9, Brain Diver 10, mc2 11, RYB (?) 12, Kindan no Elixir 13, mc3 14,Moshi Kimi 15, Northern Cross 16, Iteza Gogo 9ji Don't Be Late 17, mc4 18, xyz (?) 19, Dolce 20, Paranoia 21, Lion 22, mc6(CandR) (?) 23, MSFS (?) 24, Chase the World encore 1,Koi 2, Aenai Toki 3, Kimishinitamoukotonakare encore 1, Ai Furu --- No "Diamond Crevasse."
  18. I am not a May'n fan at all, but I read the twitter, some Japanese sport newspapers online and of course, 2 channel. The set list is now written in Japanese on the 2 channel May'n thread. It will soon be translated in English by somebody. It's 3 am, and as I said, I am no May'n fan, so I don't feel like doing it. The rhythm tank concert? WTF! Well, already 2 years ago and it was held when "Sayonara no Tsubasa" was screening. It's so natural that buying the ticket was so difficult then. But times have changed, OK?
  19. Well, the concert itself has already finished about 4.5 hours ago... Or you are talking about the coming unpluged tour? Ah, I misunderstood. The answer was yes. We could buy the tickets even on the day before the concert online. Well, I am not a funclub member. I think such ani-son singers who sell over 10,000 tickets only in funclub members don't exist except Nana Mizuki and HTT; Hokago Tea Time...
  20. Morning, folks. May'n concert, "Mic-A-Mania" at Budokan is held today and the remaining tickets for today will start being sold from 4 pm.
  21. As sketchley said before, a part of the Macross 30 novel is on Dengeki Hobby Magazine. The novel will be published on March 30. http://hobby.dengeki.com/20130227/3695-news/
  22. 未来. Miki, hm. When we read it as "Mirai," it means "future" in Japanese. As you know "kodai" means "ancient (era)." What will she do in the story? And what has become of the relation between she and he? I am looking forward to it.
  23. My health condition was not good, so I didn't go to Makuhari Messe in 2009. I read some personal blogs and 2chan. They say the venue was not good for the concert. The sound system was so bad, especially in case of Fire Bomber, the "roar" was terrible, they say. Why do not they use the venue which has the best sound systems like Yokohama Arena? Besides, I heard Mari Iijima started singing the songs which have nothing to do with Macross at that time and so many fans were taken aback... There seems to be so many things to be improved, hm.
