From what I can see there were only 2 Fire Bomber songs played in this episode.... There are like 50 Fire Bomber songs in total (I don't know how many in actuality) and I believe there must be a time in M7 where they played at least 2 or 3 songs in an episode. Hell I think the first episode (the only one I've seen) had 3.... Planet Dance at the concert, I think there was another one at the concert before the battle and Totsugeki Love Heart during the battle I think. I'm not entirely sure.

Besides the fact that was Quarter as was pointed out, Battle 7 has nothing to do with this show. The only NMC in Frontier is Battle Frontier itself. I don't see why Battle 7 would randomly show up (Actually I'd love to see Battle 7 show up as reinforcements in the final battle, Battle Frontier and Battle 7 side by side would be legendary, but I doubt it will happen).

Good consistency then. The 'Fold Shadows' are kind of like the double vision thing but they don't go back and forth, they just stay there. I'd actually find that a little creepy if I were seeing that.

Kl... MisaForever, is anyone original a member of the Clan of Klan now a member of K.L.A.N.? I still have my sig saying I support her after all, just saying.

I just watched the GG sub, and after having seen the episode while knowing what they are saying I still say this was a really good episode. It moved the plot along in that Frontier finally did something by getting away from where the Vajra kept attacking them (and finally leaving that frakking gas giant that they've been orbiting since ep.1!) even though we all believe the Vajra are not the true evil. That is Grace's title now more than ever. Ozma is in denial that Brera could be Ranka's real brother but it would seem obvious even to him I would think. It seems next episode is a character episode with no Vajra. That makes sense as the whole point of the fold was to get away from the Vajra. They are hoping now that the Vajra won't be able to follow them since they killed all the attackers with the Macross Cannon (about damn time, now we need some transformation!) before folding. Of course there is that little situation with those hatching eggs somewhere on Frontier and that... whatever it is at the end of the episode. Probably gonna bring the Vajra back, but I have a good feeling at least in the last episode the Vajra will be on our side against the real enemy, which will presumably be Galaxy. I am looking forward to Battle Frontier vs. Battle Galaxy, Super Dimension Fight of the Century! I feel incredibly sorry for Sheryl man... she will come back, she will survive! As for the new opening, I like Lion, sounds good to me. I can't wait for OST 2 (October right?) to come out, there has been a lot of stuff since OST 1. I like Northern Cross a lot as well. This is just a side note really, but something I found interesting with during folds you see the charged particles passing through the ship and everyone has those 'fold shadows' (I just made up that term, fan copyright!). Odd I don't remember seeing those in ep.6 or 7, at that time I thought maybe it was a special thing from ep.1 Deculture, but now it seems to be a normal thing. In retrospect though we didn't really see the people during the fold between ep.6 and 7 really. I think the effect is cool though, kind of the modern day version of that double vision effect you saw on people during folding in SDF Macross. I don't know if any effect was used in Macross 7 since I haven't seen it.

Never dream of it. I'd like to see more Frontier as well, but we must be wary that the plot may fail to hold that long. I just want to see a good story, regardless of episode count. After series end there will probably be some movie and even if not Frontier, some OVA between now and 5 years is very likely.

I wasn't going to bring that up... partially because I never did figure out what that is. Regardless the odd fact that each series is the whole 6x6 and 7x7 would be interesting (if ignoring Encore). However though, Macross was supposed to be shorter initially. I mean sure it did air 36 episode but it isn't like it planned to do this whole square thing. Or may it did but it is reworking it. At 25 episodes Frontier is 5x5, thus making it 5 through 7. It doesn't make much sense to do it like that instead of going to 8 but it fits. This being if you don't count Deculture edition of course which makes the whole thing 26.

I think that was supposed to be a flashback in that scene though...

You can barely see them in the avatar (the boobs that is)... As for Gubaba's episode number logic, remember that for Macross 7 there was technically 52 episodes. Even if those last 3 aren't really related to the main story, Encore is still part of the show proper.

Well SDF-1's bridge was never meant to be the head of a giant robot. The NMC carriers were designed to transform initially, whereas the SDF-1 wasn't. This despite an odd modular block system that seems to serve no purpose besides rerouting power to the main cannon and happens to make the ship look humanoid.

I would think you'd like Dr. Chibi-Klan from ep.18 (it was sort of a pun but not that much, if that doesn't make sense don't worry about it). Or something from ep.17 with her school uniform and all that.

GG sub is out! Also the script file on their site is out as well.

Fair enough, I didn't actually read the first post, just looked at the pictures. None the less I made my choice.

I think Raisin Bran is not that bad actually but I know what you mean... I like Cap'n Crunch as well. You know, actually when I watched Robotech, before I converted to Macross, the only thing I thought was good about the music was the opening song. Aside from that I didn't care about the music at all, and I especially didn't see it as playing that important of a role. Matter of fact I hated Minmay, thought she was the most annoying. In Macross I like the music and I can see how important it is to everything, and for some reason here Minmei isn't nearly as annoying to me, I can tolerate her a lot more in Macross. Of course we all agree Minmei's robotech songs were pretty bad I think.

I admitted I saw Robotech first, but I still like all the Macross music overall, including the opening. It isn't the MA-KU-ROSS thing that gets me, it is the other parts actually. Especially with translation and you know what he is saying, I like those parts. Especially the part of the song when the Macross is shown firing it's cannon in carrier mode (which is a great shot btw because it never actually does that in the show).

I could probably learn computer drafting abilities in my trade to effectively design things but drawing ability would be very helpful. I did a psedo-Valk design based off a MiG once. It actually wasn't designed to be a Macross valkyrie but it was inspired by them for something else so I was adding gerwalks. However I was putting less emphasis on gerwalks for these because they were supposed to be technologically lacking in that department compared to Macross valkyries. Long story really. Canards on the chest, reminds me of the VF-9, except that is wings on the chest. I don't much care for the VF-9, but canards on the chest will probably look better than the main wings. Ideas on how to make these work? You mean design wise or as in how to make them fly? I figure you mean the first but I'm just curious. I like to look at all aspects sometimes. Yeah, valks need gerwalks really, it's kind of a staple. I once did a concept for a movie Jetfire, long before any information about TF2 came out. Ironically after extensive mental retooling (meaning I was changing the design in my head, I do that a lot) the jet mode ended up looking close to an SR-71, and now Jetfire is supposed to be in Revenge of the Fallen as an SR-71. Perhaps I have ESP, lol. Of course that has never been explicitly confirmed beyond an SR-71 transformer being in the movie, no official source said it was Jetfire, people are just hoping.

The Macross 13 was cool, even though it was on the enemy side and got blown up. It is still a carrier technically. I voted for Saratoga II though, I like that design more than the 3 listed.

Of which are you in favor? Your sentence implies you like the RT theme then you go on with the Macross lyrics, or is that sarcasm?

BOMBAA! But seriously, I also started with Robotech. Mind you I only ever watched the Macross Saga because that was the only part that looked good and I was in love with the VF-1 when I first saw a picture of it (imagine what happen when I saw the stuff from Plus and 7), so it was somewhat destiny that I'd eventually find the real Macross and re-devote myself to that. I watched Japanese anime before Robotech or Macross so it was easy for me to like Japanese music and when I first heard the Macross theme song play out I was mesmerized. Now whenever I hear the Robotech theme it doesn't do anything for me anymore, it did once, but no more.

Ooh, I like that, a 1/5000 scale Battle Frontier like the SDF-1 had... well actually that was pretty small, maybe a bigger scale, I don't know what but I'd like to have a Battle Frontier toy. You had your chance, she is mine now, Muahahaha!!!

Molto bene! Thanks very much Whispo.

Hold it... quoted for reference. You want a virtual Sheryl program instead of Macro Klan??? You can resize the hologram of macro Klan to your specifications probably. I am surprised you want Sheryl... well if that is the case I'm taking Klan, called it!

Impressive design.... I am an Aerospace Engineering student so this is the kind of thing that really gets me going. I love seeing people designing their own things, their ideas and all that. It is an unusual shape for a Valkyrie but I like it, a lot of though went into this. I say more pics, some gerwalk as well. Keep up the work, this is good stuff. If I had any drawing ability I would be posting a lot of my own designs (I actually have not done a Valkyrie concept of my own, but I have hundreds of other things). I may do a Valkyrie concept now, but most of my stuff has been locked away in my head. I just can't draw well enough. Ironic isn't it, the guy that is studying to be an engineer has trouble with drawing... I'll have to get better at it at some point. I'm not too bad with technical 2D drawings actually but I cannot do three dimensional drawings if my life depended on it. I mostly design space craft from small transports to large battle cruisers and everything in between but it doesn't mean much if I can't articulate it into a visual medium I suppose. Well anyway you are doing good with this one, looking forward to seeing something more.

Technically she didn't make the apples, she just carved them into animals.

LMAO, I love that scene. I am watching the original Macross for the first time and I am on ep.30 so I can't wait to see that again. I saw it in Robotech version of course and I thought it was funny even then. I don't know if the Zentradi says anything like in the RT version but it is still one of my favorite moments.
