    I've never met this girl, but I respect her and her dedication to the role/I hope she found her way back to her home time

    A. Yes, please. B. Macplass(or makuplasu if you're dealing with obnoxious anime fans that hate translated titles and official romanizations)
  3. JB0
    Aktually, yes.

    I think that's wider than the space alloted to Transformers in my Targets.

    Just that the mis-spelling bugs me a lot. Not that it is a racial slur or anything.

    It bugs me a lot that they describe him as a "berserkar". If it is a pun, it is a bad one and should be "bersercar". If it is an error, it is an offensive one and they should learn to spellcheck.

    I've gotten in the habit of pasting into notepad, then copying from there to get a formatting-stripped version. Does ctrl-shift-insert work too? I'm one of the weirdos that uses shift-del for cut and shift-ins for paste.

    My favorite anime is... probably SDF Macross, actually.

    I love how the nose drops"just like a real Concorde" and then misses the entire purpose of the nose-droop by placing it too far forward.

    This is true, but we hated RT and HG back when HG wasn't actively blocking sequel releases, and Plus and II were staples of anime sections in video stores nationwide.

    Especially since VF-X2 was on the cusp of a US release. Bandai was running magazine ads for it with a final ESRB rating(E for Everyone) when they MYSTERIOUSLY DECIDED not to release it FOR SOME STRANGE REASON. We have no clue why, but it probably rhymes with Garmony Mold.

    WEP has had some legal issues over the years, but it has boiled down to "Sorry, we thought we had those rights. Yeah, we'll pay you for that. No, you don't need to drag us to court." until they finally went "What will it cost to just buy the two shows off of you outright?" Also, WEP's equivalent of The Sentinels went off without a hitch when they commissioned Toei to create an additional season of Lion Voltron. There's a few HG-related incidents in specific I'm thinking of, but for a while it seemed like HG's official corporate stance was "Macross fans are scum and we must ensure they can't spread their filth or even enjoy their hobby in private, we will DESTROY THEM AND ALL THEY LOVE MWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!!!!". I'd hoped their attitude was softening after they went back on their word and licensed SDF Macross for an official english release, but things rapidly returned to business-as-usual afterwards.

    How do you feel about the new transformation sequences? I greatly preferred the season 1 transformations.

    In fairness, part of the reason Robotech takes so much flak is how much time HG has spent talking crap about Real Macross and firing dubious legal threats at Macross fans. It never ends well when you declare war on your customer base. No one has this much hatred to spare for Voltron, because WEP hasn't been a writhing mass of self-motive dicks to the fanbase. (Also because Golion and Dairugger XV are even smaller footnotes in anime history than MOSPEADA is, but that's neither here nor there.)

    Yeah, the thread title is misleading. Less "Mari Ijima has gotten involved" and more "Mari Ijima has been dragged into" She said she didn't want to talk about it.
  16. JB0
    In fairness, HG has spent years calling part one of Robotech "The Macross Saga", so ... he can't really be blamed for this one?
  17. JB0
    Oh my. That's fantastic. Me too!

    That was why I said Tsubasa's PROBABLY my favorite. Chris put up a couple of good counterarguments.
  19. JB0
    Just sayin', the relics are powered by song energy, and Basara has LOTS of that. Tsubasa is probably my favorite of the characters I'm SUPPOSED to care about, but it is hard not to like someone as over-the-top as the commander.

    *sigh* I suppose I shouldn't be surprised, but hope springs eternal. Good job setting them on the path to goodness and light(I assume).
  21. JB0
    Well, you know what they say. A million monkeys throwing spaghetti at the wall are bound to paint the Mona Lisa eventually.
  22. JB0
    That is what I'd do. Even if keeping the zentradi, I'd make my "veritech" look more like an ancestor of the Alpha than a descendant of the Tomcat. ... I'm wondering if that one with the, ummm, bulging cockpit might have been trying to do that from the wrong direction. The front end bears a passing resemblance to the Logan from Southern Cross/Masters Saga.
  23. JB0
    I would totally watch a ferengi heist movie.
  24. JB0
    Now just imagine a world where Basara gets his hands on a relic. Also, the commander is my favorite character.
  25. JB0
    And my dirty toy-supremacist self is going to concede the wisdom of not drawing much from the original toy in all three cases. It was the toy I wanted so much as a kid, but in hindsight it just looks kinda... terrible.
