So this weekend I binged through Tartakovsky's Primal. It was a nicely done series for something that had zero dialog (not counting grunts), really good use of non-verbal communication. Really violent but had some good emotional points, especially at the start and end of the series. Interesting moments (spoilers) Only major complaint

What can we expect from a new Macross Series?
Focslain replied to akt_m's topic in Movies and TV Series
I mean heck even a reboot of SDFM in this style would be amazing. Honestly I just want A series after the next movie. Something that expands the universe a little if you please. -

Hoping it ends up better then the original series. I got a FMA: Brotherhood vibe from this though. -

Huh, might explain some of the issues in the Irregular at Magic High School adaption, considering they did 7 volumes in 26 eps. Though that just had whole side story chapters removed, but those stories helped in the world building. -
Well you do what you like, guy makes enough of GiTS royalties that he really doesn't have to work. He just draws what he wants. I feel that his earlier works were to find something that he liked and could sell, basically make his hobby his job. He just managed to strike it hard on his GiTS series. DTP was in the same universe, just prior iirc.

That might be the assault interrcesor that just got released in standard scale. Heavy version is either going to be space wolf or iron hands.

So are you describing Monster Musume or Oisha here? Most of this is from Musume with exception of the zombie bit (which was the dulahan, in Musume) I'm going to look into grabbing the LN for Oisha because the science in this series has my interest. Sure there is fanservice, but that is to be expected if this series is to drawn in and hold the old Musume crowd. Which seems to be the plan. In general Oisha has a better world and a more interesting plot. -
Then you should. Seriously if you like something speak your mind. Nothing wrong with a difference in taste, just be able to explain why outside of just wanting to buck the trend.

Yeah, not going to lie. The movie is my only real taste of that universe. I didn't have any issues with it either. Speaking of the series I'll add it to my watch-list once I find it.

Same here, just looks like a Special Edition cut (ala the Star Wars trilogy), but they removed Patrick Stewart. As long as the plague is still going on I'll wait for a home release.

This was definitely one of those 'It shouldn't be this good' shows. Also due to the twist in the final moments of the season we do need a season 2.

Your most recent Macross or toy purchase! General thread.

So added to my growing collection of nendoroids. I have four more on pre-order, for now... I'm going to have to start using my spare green stuff to make tiny food for these as I want to have a full picnic scene and need more food items. Plus the scene of Senko-san dropping in vegetables into Geralt's tub while Masotan watches is digging into my brain to be made. -

That has more to do with the source material then the studio. From what I've been hearing the adaptions are pretty spot on from what is in the mangwas. Plus nothing wrong with a fireworks display. -
What can we expect from a new Macross Series?
Focslain replied to akt_m's topic in Movies and TV Series
Of course they miss the micro-thruster belts they wear. You can even see the thruster flares in episode one and in Freya's debut concert. Walkure is a good example of the axiom "Any technology significantly advance is indistinguishable from magic." For Delta it was the focus on the idol group with some mecha combat around that caused the concern. They just need to find a better balance (like Frontier), but that comes with practice and let's be blunt. Macross has only had about half a dozen series it's catalog. This compared to something like Gundam or Fate/Stay which have dozens of series under their belts in about the same amount of time. So it's harder to hide a bad season for Macross since it doesn't have much to hide behind. As apposed to some other franchises which have had more bad seasons than Macross has had seasons as a whole. -
It is, heck the tiny necelles on the bridge is actually a tiny frigate that fights as a pet in the game.

Crazy Macross Designs I want to see Built

Still near the top of this Rabbit hole of Macross.
Focslain replied to Photogirl's topic in Movies and TV Series
While someone else will give you a more detailed answer. The basic canonization of the Macross material is to remember that each show/movie/game/book is a show/movie/game/book in universe, based on the actual events in the Macross universe. So for example SDFM is a TV show in Macross, DYRL is a movie in macross. Both are based on the same events, Space War One. -
So there are basically going back to basics with a prequel to TOS, written like TOS. Image the money they would have saved/made if they STARTED WITH THAT IN THE FIRST PLACE.

It felt like the opening to a game of Mansions of Madness, but set in the 60's. There isn't much Lovecraft in the first episode outside the bookends. Nothing was more attention grabbing then seeing Jackie Robinson take on a starchild with a baseball bat. Our group of heroes has some brains to them and it's looking to get weirder in the coming weeks. If they can keep up on the creature effects this might turn out somewhat interesting.

It was the endgame of the series. Roid used Mikumo in star-singer form to create a gestalt conscience of all sentient being in the galaxy with him at the helm.

Got one (technically two due to housemate). The new rules will take some getting used to, but those that played the prior edition will have little issues. Price point of the big box is really good, but if your only interested in a force I'd either wait til the battle boxes or if your itching to get into the game then grab one of the new starter sets releasing this month.

Figure I drop this here as I'm a little proud of what I did. In three months I painted this: That is a bakers' dozen of mini-knights and two medium sized ones. Technically I did two more not pictured. Most of these are for my custom knight house and I wanted six squads of the buggers and it is done. Now I just need one of every type of knight and the house overall will be done.
