Conspiracy theory #2874 - the DYRL movie was to cover up the fact they switched the real Macross on earth with a fake (I mean seriously, no Prometheus/Daedalus arms?!?!)

Promotheus-Daedalus was destroyed/damaged beyond repair after Quamjin double suicide attack. It was rebuilt incorporating ARMD carriers for the arm in Flashback 2012.

I agree with Duke Togo, WTF-1 is just a fanboy dream of 1:1 SDF-1 Macross kit which he left it on Galia 4 when his parent refuses him to buy a lake to place his oversize model.

You see when two Fast Packs love each other very much...

I'll stop there, you get the idea.

In Ranka flashback, the Vajra seems to crush the Fast Pack wrapped around a fold booster, and she always recall her brother. So this could mean the Vajra is her brother or the Fast Pack is her brother, led me to this weird conclusion: Ranka is Vajra Fast Pack.....now I've done it

is it me or Ranka sensed the Macross after the VF-25 crashed.

Its not the WTF-1 that gives her the newtype reaction, its probably from whatever is inside it, probably a Vajra Queen, or Ranka distance relatives.

Don't you mean 2050s...? The macross was presumably still slugging it out against the Zentradi with a full complement of Supervision Army crewmembers in the 1950's...

yup, 2050....and darn it, I write 2050 for my work report...now I must redo it again

It makes perfect sense really, Ranka was just a sub system on a Fast pack booster when the Vajra came and the V-type infection turned her into a 1/4 zentran human hybrid that Ozma had to save now this his Fast packs are useless since part of them turned into a person.

You mean 1/4 zentran 1/4 human 1/2 Fast Pack???

Haven't watched the ep yet, but I'm betting next week's appearance of the SDF-1 will just be a flashback to Space War 1.

Graham

Probably not SW1, since WTF-1 is accompanied by Guantanamo class carriers, probably just some history lesson about SDF-1 circa 1950s.

I want Luca's lunchbox......

Taksraven

Is that City dome lunch box? So the dome must have a heater to keep the food warm

And I just want to give a big " I told you so" to anyone who thought that Kamjin's head somehow survived being blown up along with the rest of his body at the end of SDFM.

It just another mad clone of Quamjin, nothing less Hmm, so in each of every Zentran fleet, there's a Vriltwhai look alike, Exedol look alike and Quamjin look alike, where's my mass produced Miriya clone?

And from the look of things at the end of this episode, his VF was in amazing condition after his rather bumpy crash landing. There was no visible damage to the plane other than the dirt that he picked up as he played pattycake with the ground. Apparently that armor on the VF-25 works REAL good. A modern plane that performed that kind of landing would have left pieces all over the landscape. Even his wings were still intact.

VF are know to be crash-resistant.

In Macross TV series, Hikaru VF-1D survives crashing through mutiple building.

In Macross Plus, Isamu VF-11 somehow survive at a certain degere after being dragged in the desert floor.

So the Zentran in Galia 4 have a warehouse fully stock with reaction warheads. And that Temjin guys want to equip their Q-Reas with the nukes. Knowing that Zentran have trouble with living in peace, they gave them access to reaction weaponary? So I think there's a bigger conspiracy here, with Galaxy missing, Vajra, and Agent Grace who seems to be the one behind the riot in Galia 4. Darn, Macross F is becoming more like X-Files with each episode. And Mr. Birla, where are you?

Anybody elses jaw hit the floor at the end of the episode?????

Taksraven

Nope, the floor brick hit my jaw instead when Ranka start singing, I know I shouldn't use Mayan island rock as my floor decoration.

Can someone make me an animated avatar of Ranka dancing in this episode?

As much of an homage to the original it was, I could not stop thinking Fleet of the Strongest women the whole way through. That was such a perfect Ranka introduction.

Notice another homage to Macross Plus when Alto VF-25 zoomed out the screen and take a sudden climb. The scene where Alto and Ranka flying in clouds is perfect only if Ranka is singing Minmay's Sunset Beach.

Seriously though, you don't need the spoiler tags anymore.

just playing along.

So the episode title "fastest delivery" referring to Michael delivering Ranka to Galia 4 in record time?

Also, while I know music is part of Macross lore, I was really hoping to see Michael go in swinging....... Or at least use some sort of fairing on the speakers... Those things are aerodynamically offensive!

~Luke

Well, at least this confirmed that VF-25 can carry under wing ordinance like speake pods and missiles. I was hoping Michael Valk to dance along with Ranka singing, he's good at those kind of valk movement (refer to epi.9)

For you no. In fact, everything you post must now be in spoiler tags. Just you and only you.

Finally...as I said previously, I'll leave the appearance of SDF-1 to next week. That came outta nowhere so I don't even know how to respond to that.

They possibly

got sick and tired of the high real estate costs of living on Earth and decided to move.

Or probably they have enough of Macross-jack. SDF-1 has been hijacked twice, first by Sharon Apple and second by the roque UN Spacy during the VFX-2 event. This probably makes the higher up to decide to re-activate SDF-1 as fleet flagship and probably during that time the fold drives went berserk again and took the whole ship to Galia 4.

So epi.13 is Golbal report, so I can assume that

Anyone who had played Macross VO will surely know that there are several SDF class ship, o I wonder whether they trying to make this canon. If the SDF in Galia 4 is indeed the original Macross it sure one hell of a plot twist. I just hope SK didn't plan to butcher the entire Macross Universe history by this retcon.

Well as you pointed out to me some time ago, the Frontier is bigger than City 7, so it's highly probably that alot of the functions of the other ships are now done in Island 1 and it's connecting "islands."

Frontier fleet is like Island 1 connected with several Island to form one gigantic "archipelago" colony . I also wondered about which island is used for heavy factory (manufacturing ships and VF). And I also noticed that the day/night cycle is still controlled by Island 1 dome, so I wonder if this is also for the rest of the island or they have a dedicated day/night cycle system.

Another question:

This is about colony ships, in UC Gundam the colony is using mirror reflection to "power" the colony life, giving day/night cycle, the sunlight is also crucial for the solar energy needed for life cycle. In Macross universe, we see that day/night cycle is controlled by the colony dome holographic projector including producing a holographic sun, the question is whether the system also capable of generating solar power as well?

Now I need to excuse myself, need to dig up several grave for the catgirls that I just slaughtered

It's almost 12 hours since epi.12 airs, so I think we could lift the spoiler tag right Azrael?

Some random pic

Interesting,

Another WTF moment

QFT, can't wait for next episode, I demand some answer, until then good night everyone.

I'm watching it on Keyhole right now
