Smells of Macross Plus Homage.

This thread has possibilities. Brera upon encountering the Vajra Queen onboard WTF-1 Brera: Get away from her you Bitch! Canaria on the deck of the Dulfim & preparing to fire at the Vajra Canaria: LET'S ROCK!!! Crew being brief about SMS being pressed into military service in times of emergency or war Wilder: Any Questions? What is it Mikhail? Alto: Alto, sir. He's Mikhail. Wilder: What is it Private? Alto: How do I get out of this chicken-sh*t outfit. Ozma: You secure that sh*t, Alto! VF-25 Crashes due to D-Pulse Jamming Alto: That`s it man! Game over man, game over! What the f*ck are we gonna do now! What are we gonna do?! Ranka: Why don`t we build a fire, sing a couple of songs! Why don`t we try that? Briefing Room of Macross Quarter Enroute to Rescue Operation of Dulfim & Kaitos Alto: Is this going to be a standup fight, sir, or another bughunt? Ozma: All we know that is there still is no contact with the colony, and that the Vajra may be involved. Luca: Excuse me sir, a what? Ozma: The Vajra. Mikhail: It's a bughunt. Cathy speaking to Leon about the loss of life at Gallia-4 Cathy: These people are dead, Leon! Do you have any idea what you've done here? Well I'm gonna make sure they nail you right to the wall for this--you're not gonna sleaze your way out of this one. Right to the wall!

Wait I just realized something if valks sensors and Zentraedi ship sensors are affected by the jamming why wasn't the following listed below not affected? == Grace's cyborg body == VF-27 == Ex-Gear

Quick somebody post the pic of SDF-1's first firing of its main cannon in SDFM. But seriously I really lobe to hate this show, since it has left me with high expectations that the only other anime I'm currently watching is Code Geass. There's nothing else that I feel is worth checking out this season.

BTW, looks like we have a new kid in the block in the form of Kei. A Big THANK YOU to the people of Kei. I've watched there fansub of Episosde 13 and it seems OK. Well there was the occasional F-bombs though. How about other MWers? Thoughts on Kei?

Speaking of Ex-Gears, I just realized there was a lot of Ex-Gear Love in this episode. http://i30.tinypic.com/33lyumg.png http://img20.imageshack.us/img20/5538/97646265dr5.png http://i31.tinypic.com/1zd0rwh.png http://img93.imageshack.us/img93/2128/94728810gc0.png But could someone tell me why they remind me vaguely of Robotech??? Yes, I saw Robotech, but only the Macross part, the rest I only saw some snippets of it in the Intarnetz and some old VHS tapes. BTW I'm just curious is it feasible to use Ex-Gears as powered armor for miclone infantry?

This SCREAMS of a Macross Zero Reference: http://i27.tinypic.com/zmzl93.jpg IIRC, there is a similar still shot of Roy's VF-0S reaching out for his gunpod. Don't remember, which episode though.

YES!!!! VF-25 with Armored Pack in Alto Color Scheme. The Armored VF-25 Looks Read BADASS: http://i30.tinypic.com/23kf6ux.jpg Its probably just the vanilla VF-25. BTW, is the VF-171 the one with the dual head lasers or the one of the quad head lasers? With the pictures above, Graham must need new pants by now.

Plausible. BUT, I think it wont be in a white color. Grace's ride will be a VF-27 in D.D. Ivanov colors. Since Brera already has the VF-27 in Nora Polyansky colors. In other words another Macross zero tribute.

False alarm, I guess. EDIT: I though tankf77 meant the subbed version not subtitled. Sorry about that.

AHEM...... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kikuko_Inoue TV Anime Roles * Adventures of Mini-Goddess (Belldandy (from ep.14)) * Ah! My Goddess (Belldandy) * Macross Frontier (Grace O'Connor) All of her roles are available in the link provided above.

AMEN TO THAT!!!! BUT.....

I somehow survived the wait myself. Anyways, I think its clear now that the WTF-1 IS NOT the SDF-1. So now I'm wondering about the origins of the WTF-1 a.k.a "Global." I've read theories about it being used to imprison a Vajra Queen for research and tests, which is quite possible there are no inhabitants within it.

FINALLY!!!!! http://img117.imageshack.us/img117/4687/sn...04053019bd0.jpg http://img117.imageshack.us/img117/4662/sn...04052910lr6.jpg http://img117.imageshack.us/img117/1681/sn...04052858om6.jpg BTW, I'm surprised no one ever noticed this: http://img384.imageshack.us/my.php?image=32nh7.jpg Keep telling yourself that. PICS??? Pretty Please!!!!

ROFL The SDF-1 should also say after doinf the Daedelus Manuver: pwn3d!!

Legs anyone? http://i32.tinypic.com/dgtkx4.jpg http://i29.tinypic.com/143izhg.jpg Based on the line art it really does seem that the VF-25 does not come with internal missile weaponry. This would reflect earlier comments supposedly made by SK that he was shying away from basing his VFs on real world fighters (e.g. -17; -19; -21/-22), and instead going back to macross' roots (VF-1).

This fight sequence from episode 2 of Macross Zero was AWESOME for me. That's the one were D.D. shoots at Roy's wingman while the sun is behind him (D.D.). ALSO the now famous opening mecha fight at the beginning of Vol.1 of OVA version of Macross Plus. And of course who could forget the VF-0S transformation sequence seen in latter part of Episode 1 of Macross Zero.

Plausible, but I think it will be the Macross Quarter that gets destroyed and then SMS uses/hijacks a re-built WTF-1, complete with Macross Qaurter like manuverability. But seriously, how the heck is SK gonna explain the appearance of the WTF-1 in Gallia 4? Makes me impatient to get my hands of episode 13 all of a sudden.

BTW, another thing just popped into my mind. Is the backseat also an Ex-Gear???

OK so episode 12 has been out for days, but I have'nt seen anyone raise eyebrows at Alto's VF-25 suddenly having a backseat? Magic??? Even Mikhail's VF had a fracking backseat. I mean check this out: No silhoutte of backseat seen: http://i27.tinypic.com/301kdv8.jpg Backseat later on in episode: http://i27.tinypic.com/5we4qp.jpg NOTE: if viewed from the side you should theoritically see the silhoutte of the backseat. I mean what's up with that. BTW, pics were taken from Random Curiosity.

BTW just re-watched episode 7 again, and i found this...... Five barelled gunpod? Also I almost forgot to mention that this screencap is the scene were Alto is going to nail Kamjin with the Gunpod-Knife Combo Attack.....and I was wondering did Alto fire the gunpod WITHOUT it being expanded/deployed like this one being held by the Ozma VF-25:

Speaking of leg mounted gunpods, how about this: Underslung gunpod in GERWALK MODE??? Was'nt it established in Macross Zero that if not held by the Mecha's hand its mounted in the arm:

Ok I just saw the episode 10 minutes ago, but before anything else I would just like to get this out in the open by echoing the sentiments of Duke Togo after watching Episode 12.......... The Macross in some far away planet? Aside from that WTF moment, I really like this episode. BTW, did any body get the Macross Plus homage when Alto entered the atmosphere? That reminded me a lot of Isamu's infiltration of Earth's defenses. For a while there I even thought Brera would pop out from under some rubble ala Guld in Macross Plus. And what the heck, I'm getting a very definite APHOS (from Macross Zero) vibe with that "thingy" lurking under water.

Uhmmmmm......

You mean this:
