Or not. They might have gone down due to the run-off from Loki and had to take everything offline.

Lunamaria is more like an older sister to Shinn. (For reference's sake) http://www.gundamofficial.com/worlds/ce/ba...gy.html#psarmor Compared to the last generation, the new Gundams out perform their predecessors.

There's more here than just the forums..... http://www.macrossworld.com Again, please see the following links for answers and info about Macross: http://www.anime.net/macross/ http://www.macrossworld.com/mwf/index.php?showtopic=228 We also have a wonderful toy section and if you search, you'll find reviews of the Yamato 1/48 Max VF-1J in there (and plenty of pics).

Well....... (possible spoilers, Highlight to read*): There's a rumor running around that Haine with meet his fate at the hands of Kira. Haine is suppose to go after Lacus (more possible evidence that Chairman Dullindal was behind the assasination attempt). Remember, Haine is part of FAITH and we know who controls FAITH. Again, this is 100% rumor. Don't believe it until some episode previews come out. Some speculation on my part is that they could be saving Haine for MSV/Destiny Astray. Miguel (Takanori Nishikawa's other role) was good enough to grant him his own custom GINN. Now they gave him 2 orange MS (an orange ZAKU Phantom and a GOUF Ignited)..... Also Mr. Nishikawa is a musician by trade so giving him a voice role would conflict with his schedule and be expensive.... (*Disclaimer: Please remember to use spoiler tags)

Yep. Director Fukada likes Ryotaro Okiayu's voice so he brought him back from the dead. Yep. In fact, I bet their still plotting Seed Destiny.

Panon is correct about the 50-episode thing. However, things changed during the production. Many things that were flying around were Kira was suppose to die, Flay was suppose to be the pilot of Strike Rouge, Andy was to stay dead and a few other things. In fact, around summer of the time that SEED aired, we were hearing rumors of SEED 2 (which would be Destiny). So changes in the story happen during production. When the production crew were told that Seed would continue, they probably changed the story to allow it to carry on and wrote an open ending.

Well that's cuz people haven't use spoiler tags (I mentioned using "color=white" previously) and people have been posting pics, wasting forum space instead of linking to the place they got them from. Some of those pics are from places that are less caring of spoilers. But oh well....

A bit of conjecture. The VF-19 Custom, VF-11, VF-11MAXL Custom, VF-17, and the Fz-109, all seem to note that the gunpods have a sensor on them. So it can't just be a coincidence. The lineart for the VF-5000's gunpod also points to a similar bump with what looks like the word "sensor" pointing to that bump.

Well Saviour wasn't designed with the METEOR units in mind so why should it have it.....

Most the the equipment stats can be found here: http://www.mahq.net/mecha/patlabor/patlabor.htm

Athrun was playing babysitter. Athrun had to deal with guarding Minerva, fighting Chaos, the Windams, Neo and watching Shinn's ass. When Athrun was fighting in that ZAKU, he had good wingmen, Yzak and Dearka. With them, it was a 1-2 punch-knockout. There was no doubt among them. With Shinn, it's something else. Shinn pretty much went on his own chasing Neo down then getting caught up with Gaia. It boils down to Shinn not following orders. (Read the episode 16 discussion on AnimeSuki's forums and you will understand why it comes down to this). In the end, they couldn't save the sub. Abyss is at home in the water, Auel would have ran circles around them and then some. Shinn lacks discipline. He's implusive and in this case, ignored orders from the commanding field officer and getting himself in trouble because of it. Their objective was the hold-off the incoming targets. They weren't looking for the base (although they suspected it being there, it was not the objective). And it didn't help Shinn when he pretty much told Athrun to piss-off so he could fight Gaia. At that point, Athrun had to hold off everyone else just so Shinn could fight Gaia.

*Ding ding ding ding* We have a winner. Yes, it's just a targetting sensor for the gunpod. Think of it as sights on a gun...you won't be able to shoot straight without it.

From what I've seen, neither is any better than the other yet neither gain any ground above the other. In an episode of Dekaranger, the scene takes place in a relative tall building area and yet there is an industrial area virtually next door ( reference episode 23 of Dekaranger). It appears awkward. At times, there are also some effects in PR that don't quite work and appear awkward (a few instances of PR: Ninja Storm come to mind, but I'll have to dig for those scenes). So their roughly even in my book. If there are bad shots in PR I can spot, then there are bad shots in any Sentai series that I can find so that kinda justifies my take on that.

Scarecrow looks good.....but he needs the hat. The sack-over-the-head just isn't enough......

no no no no..... (Spoiler, Highlight to read) Ban got selected for the FireSquad so he left the group at the end of the show, obviously. That's more of the last days of filming (Toei's site, no less). On the last day of that an actor/actress needs to shot scenes the cast/crew normally present the actors with a bouquet of flowers. Some of the more interesting shots are the ones with the actors in the sentai suits. Looks like they got a chance to do their final action sequences in the suit. That rarely happens.

We usually don't count those (their mostly done for fun and money....okay mostly money) as they aren't part of the continuity, hence the reason I left it out of my earlier statement.

The Super-Sentai shows have no relation to one another. Each year comes a new show, new theme, and a completely new set of ideas (okay, almost a new set of ideas...Magiranger-this year's show-once again takes on the family-based ranger group).

Probably not for a while. It's in Archangel's best interest to lay low for the time being. Actually, its a ship and 3 MS.

Neo's Windam in action......if that's what you want... But yes Shinn deserved the slaps. Shinn is implusive. By chasing Neo, he just keep getting into more trouble. His orders were to protect the ships and he ran off on his own. And what happens, they lose a ship. I think Athrun really got pissed when Shinn told him to shut-up so he could engage Gaia.

I'm guessing they'll change it every quarter (roughly every 13 episodes if this is a 50-eps series).

From Gunota, for you music-lovers: At least there's no male-rap vocal....

*Raises hand* That would be me. You can't please them all, so don't try. I don't think calling it an "allergy" is an appropriate wording for their reactions toward Anima Spiritia because not all of them reacted the same way and over time, a few of them did adapt.

Eventually there will be a Gouf Ignited. That, however, is just a Blaze Zaku Phantom-Haine Custom. Actually, it's suppose to be Haine's (hence the pic of him next to it). In fact, it was suppose to be Haine who piloted that orange ZAKU a few episodes back. Well....it's a little more magenta than purple.....but ain't that a coincidence......
