OMG that is pretty f%cking awesome, I can't wait to download the DYRL PS1 game, I just hope PS1 Vita support is out by then. The PS3 game looks like it may have even more detail than Last Frontier, but we'll see. As for the PV in general, it's hard to tell just how well the remaster came off, since the youtube upload is interlaced to hell for the movie part. Colors look good, detail looks pretty good, hard to tell how much natural grain is lef though. They also took the cheat route of still not showing us how FB 2012 came out. Is it anamorphic for the intro & ending? Hard to tell since the showed it in a little window, but there were no borders so it makes me wonder... Regardless, can't wait even more now.

There's also nothing wrong with "not" becoming a prude just because you're older.

I agree with everything you've said except for 2.5 points. 1:As far as we know, the Booby Trap never occurred in the DYRL canon (of which II supposedly follows), so really, the energy discharges make no sense. Even if you assume that they do, the original series imparted that the problem with the system was taken care of, so there'd be no reason for an early warning system to dangerously fire a canon of that size. 2:The Bridge Lifeboat system, if it did exist in the TV canon, had nothing to do with the surivval of the bridge crew, since Kamjin hit the freakin' Daedelus arm. and 2.5:Macross II's Minmay attack & Fire Bomber aren't comparable. Fire Bomber continued on the actual essence of what won the war in the oriignal series (moving your enemy into becoming your friend), while II's Minmay attack reverted back to the old culture shock standby. Oh, and before I forget, isn't a lot of that stuff regarding the colony fleet's part of the PC Engine game canon? I wouldn't necessarily take that as fact in regards to II or anything else. Generally assumed by who & where? Sounds fanfic-ish to me.

All video feature's/extra's "ARE" omitted from the regular edition. All you'll get with the regular edition is the movie + game. If you want the bonus materials (such as the documentaries), you have to purchase the LE.

It's his version of The Boss's armor, you find it inside one of the lockers at the Grozyny Grad lab building. I'm guessing they wanted this to be a final battle set. With that said, they totally botched The Boss's face, she's supposed to look middle aged and battle worn, not like a dude.

You know, that never made any sense. Putting Dinobots in the movies would have given Bay a free pass to have robots burping & farting fire, bungilng into things , etc. You'd think he would have jumped at the chance.

Wrong answer, that just leads to dying under the Zentradi bombarrdment. The right answer is move to South Ataria, get a job supporting or assiting in the rebuild, and hope you don't die during one of the various Zentradi attacks (hint, always be near a shelter, never be near a transformatrion point!)

And yet, what are the chances Lion-O & company would have taken them with if they knew they Kit & Kat still had a home to go back to? You're underestimating their motivation to find that treasure to take care of their family.

Uh huh, you could feel sorry for the have nots, until you account for brutal acts such as killing the Mars Base members on their way back to Earth. Fact is there's a reason why the technology wasn't shared with them.

Over? It just began!

Why not both?

I don't see any canon killer there. They left home until they could bring back enough money (be it from a mythical city or otherwise) to help out their family. Doesn't make sense to go back after the fall of the main city, especially with Lizards on their tale.

Why would you support the Anti-UN? Only terrorists support the Anit-UN!

If didn't notice the dramatic improvements going from Ace to Ultimate to Triangle, then you obviously haven't been playing these very much. And while it would be nice to get a full game released sooner than later, these mini-games help pay for the infrostructure on that full release. Unlike the PSP games, everything needs to be re-rendered from scratch.

Yup, that's definately Kai.

As usual, I have almost no idea what you're saying, however I will point out that Roy was a womanizer & met Claudia years before Aries died.

Yup, read and replied to all the aforementioned posts. And stupid/unnecessary are very subjective concepts that should be policed by who? One man'sstupid and unnecessary is another man's view of perfectly fine. Yes, "someone" does. Never thought I'd have to defend the virtues of fanservice on an anime based fan forum. I expect this kind of ignorence from the robotech lackyfans, not people here. Next time you reply try having something more relevent to the topic, and less personal attack. Exactly

Can't remember honestly, it's been a while since I've had to SS those missions, try searching older posts though, chances are strategies for the harder missions have already been covered here.

That's the thing, you're apparently not enjoying it, wanting to change it to reflect something it's not, i.e. something prudish that doesn't have fanservice. Something is only deviant until it becomes the norm. Mark my words, fanservice shall become so prevelent that things tht lack it shall become the new deviance!! Note that "sex" and "intercourse" aren't the same thing. I used the word "sex" in the sense of "sex appeal" and or "sexual content," etc. Unless of course the panty chase "is" the action. Your implication that such a thing is stupid in the first place is highly judgemental. You seem to be of a mindset that automatically dismisses anything sexual in nature (at least in this context where entertainment is concerned), so you'll forgive me for not subscribing to your personal opinion. Seems that I'm more of the like mind of the series creatoers and their intended audience. Point being, if a story is intended to include a balance of serious & fun elements, who's to say the occasional panty chase is out of context. I don't see you here saying things like Hikaru's escapades at a langerie shop, damn near anything Loli Wareru & Konda did, Roy checking out Minmay's ass, Hikaru getting caught trying to peep on Minmay's shower, Kim Shammy & Vanessa threatening to pants their crewmember, etc dragged Macross to a screeching halt. Blatant fanservice is an interesting term, as you're depicting it as a negative. By definition it's a service done "for the fans." So blatantly catoring to the fanbase implies that they're giving people "what they want." This very same crowd also wants transforming robots/airplanes, popular music, a love triangle, action etc. All that can be considered "blatantly pandering" as none of these things are a requirement to tell a story. Animation, a preferred character design style (in this case anime) etc are also "pandering" to a specific crowd. If you want to experience a version of Macross relatively free of "pandering" might I suggest just reading a text translation of a script or something. Though even that would probably contain elements that could be consider "pandering." You're painting a personal view as a blind fact, i.e. that fanservice is an unnecessary element. You're basing that view on your own dislike of fanservice for whatever personal reason you choose. I don't see you here complaining about depictions of violence (the murder of President Glass and his entourage for example) as pandering & unnecessary elements. I don't see you here complaining about the existence of fantastical transforming airplane robots that are (by current scientific means) completely unfeasable. You're choosing to narrow your focus on a very specific, and dare I say the most natural aspect (i.e. depictions of sexuality) as an unnecessary one. I suggest you take a look at yourself and why you feel that way about a normal human drive/interest, as opposed to one's that actually are unhealthy (the aforementioned violence) before condemning fanservice as a negative. At the end of the day, maybe anime just isn't for you, sorry. Fanservice is something that has always been, and always will be. One man's lewd is another man's art, the only thing seperating the two are perception & context.

Uh huh, BS. If something is good, it shouldn't matter how much gratutitous nudity is present. Clothes, no clothes, bouncing tits, etc. Perception is just that, perception. If you have a problem with naked chicks, change your perception so that you don't. Implying that their presence somehow cheapens something is a reflection on how you view nudity, not on nudity itself. Or to put it more simply, if you're tired of having a "DECULCHA!!" reaction, then do what Kamjin did and desensitize yourself to it.

If that's one of the ex missions, play until you unlock the stat unlmiter, fully max out a valkyrie, and return for win. If you've already done all that, try using the YF-21's special on her, and equip Kakizaki's pilot skill.

Sorry, but no. Roy is shown to be a womanizing rookie, he's just that way. As for Michel, you conveniently forgot the part about his sister going batshit crazy and killing her cheating boyfriend. Things like that make people question fidelity in general. As for nudity in anime, I do have to wonder if: 1: There aren't a bunch of prudes & women hiding in these forums. 2: Why anyone can find depictions of war/killing ok, but sex not ok.

I'm just sayin', this could just as easily, if not more easily, tie in with the movie canon than the TV canon at this point.

Between this episode & Lion-o's trials it should be pretty resolved.
