Thats just the point. It is quite possible that the production team thought that it was a good moment to have the VF-25 appear firing missiles, regardless of how many missiles it can carry. There is no point in getting too worked up about it, even "hard" SF has to struggle to be "realistic". Ultimately, in SF, there will always be some magic. Taksraven

It is a pretty big buildup for their origins/motives. It had better be good. Taksraven

Close combat. I still think that the bayonet mounted on the gunpod of the VF-11B Thunderbolt was a much cooler idea, visually and practically. You think so???? Taksraven

I guess that there is always scope for things like this, but since there is such a small amount of Macross compared to Gundam (how many episodes of that exist), I think that most people would be interested in seeing Macross stories that further the main plot. Taksraven

I get that vibe too. Possibly evil shady. Taksraven

I ALWAYS want Tuna Buns....... Taksraven

There was an early Robot Chicken sketch with a celebrity race that pretty much summed up what this movie should be like..... I would post the link from Youtube for those who have not seen it, but the Facist policies of Youtube means that most Robot Chicken stuff is deleted. Taksraven

This is a blindingly obvious statement, and I know that there are plenty of Macross 7 fans out there, but the people who dislike Macross 7 clearly do so VERY passionately and for some (no names mentioned, you know who you are), it would seem that they actually derive some sort of enjoyment out of hating Macross 7 and a certain major character in the series. Now, since I have never had the opportunity to see it, I have to ask. Is it really that bad?? Taksraven

Is it subtitled? Taksraven

I think that with Ranka they get the right balance between "cute" and "troubled past" to make her an interesting character. Otherwise she would be annoying. I was also wondering, does anybody have any idea of what percentage of the "human" population in the Macross Universe ARE clones. I think that clones would have been required to help fill the colony ships. Taksraven

I find it surprising that there was no "movie edition" since they did one of other macross ova's and tv series. I wonder if we will get a movie version of Frontier. Taksraven

I predict that Ozma is going to follow Roy's character to a premature death (not nice, I know) and then Alto will have to cheer Cathy up. Then we will get a Hikaru/Misa thing going between the two. My money is definitely on Alto and Cathy. Taksraven

Yay, Shinsen has put up a fansub of episode one. Looks like they are going to continue doing Macross Frontier. Great stuff... Taksraven

Yeah, with the classic Batou line - "There's a snake in my boot!" Taksraven

Thanks for Mr March for the website link to create this. Taksraven

You gotta love the LEGO Valkyrie though.... Taksraven

From the Anime-In-Action and Infinite Zero Fansub..... GREATEST "FUN FACT" SUBTITLE EVER!!! Taksraven

You really stole my thunder there, but it is absolutely true. I am really reminded myself of the Macross Plus soundtrack. The combination of fantastic orchestral music and cool jpop works really well. Since there will be a lot more Frontier than Mac+ we should hopefully get to hear lots of other cool stuff too. Even Triangular has grown on me. Taksraven

I cannot believe that it took soooo long to mention this loser. Easily one of the worst actors ever. No acting ability, no charisma and he just stuffs up movies that he appears in. Taksraven

One of the coolest moments in the episode, enjoy...... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v9f-EmU8BYQ Taksraven

Are you trying to stir everybody up with the last two on the list????? Taksraven

Mao was trying too hard to be jailbait..... Taksraven

You have to think for yourself. I was reading the speculation on this thread until it became clear that people were watching the episode. Then I stopped looking at the thread until I had watched it. Then I started reading the thread again. A little bit of self control is all you need. Be patient..... Taksraven
