Seriously guys... Did any of you actually watch ... Btw... EPIC episode... Can't wait for the final one...

Same here. I already made a couple Dvds with Episodes 1-8 in one and 9-16 in the other (I'm waiting to see if the series end with an extended finale or extra episodes before burning more). And I still want to buy the originals... Any info on the final episode duration? Could it be longer than the standard ones?

And what about the comment in series about the VF-27 that "not even a human in Ex-Gear could survive piloting it..." or such... It seemed to me that clearly indicated some G-protection function for the Ex-Gear...

Could that be a confirmation that Macross Frontier is going to be released in the US? (DVD/Blue Ray format at least?)

Pretty grim omen if u ask me... The saddest/most shocking thing will be watching Alto see most (if not all) his wingmen die without being able to help them... He is gonna end up like Ozma... I just hope Klan and Nene live... (Klan at least). Mmmh... Try watching Orguss or other similar series, hehehe... Or write fan-fic based on Frontier, hehehehe (even better!!!). That would explain a lot and could be a very interesting twist... Me like it!!!

Actually that comment makes me think that this guy may be stuck in the 90s... Man... I may be even older than him, and I still do like new stuff like Frontier a lot... I love the original Macross... But lets face it... Things change... Embrace change...

You know... I still like Robotech (grew up with it... and I liked Shadow Chronicles too...). But I like Macross so much right now (and Frontier too... despite the loli-, fan service, comedy, etc.etc.) that I don't give a damn about it and won't even bother reading it... Doesn't make any sense to have someone criticizing the non-drama elements of the show this far (with only 2 episodes to go!!!)... when things are now so grim and serious... Thanx man... Wow... That's a radical change from previous episodes... I hope whatever causes that makes her frustation even bigger later, hehehe...

More Frontier art...

NUN Goverment has Earth as main/home/supply base, but by no means seems to be a centralist goverment because of that... And makes sense... Why have the main goverment power sitting like a duck on a planet that could be attacked just like it happened during Space War I? Better have it become mobile and safer that way... With a big escort fleet that is... The Vajra may change things again though...

Watch Episode 21 and 22. Lots of Klan grieving there... Jeez... Did you watched the original SDF Macross? Remember Claudia La Salle...

More if the Vajra conflict reaches each and every Human/Zentradi Alliance fleet in the whole galaxy...

Just as I always thought. But just to clarify... The head of the NUN Goverment was Howard Glass (Check the Official Site Profile and the Compendium)... So Earth was the main supply base, but the commanding base has been Frontier all along. And it seems that Leon is now the Big Cheese (It seems he was just appointed new President on this Episode).

It was revealed in the news thread that Kawamori told NT that those voices are

Nice pics guys... But shouldn't all that aircraft/valk comments go in the mecha thread? Need some actual Macross Frontier news now...

Need a pic of that explosion to rectify... But I'm pretty sure that I saw a conventional explosion with some puple-pinky lights coming from it and the "scream" you mentioned was more like the sound of a DE reaction to me...

I find that supposition very very probable. I bet he retired and became a civilian... Or a military advisor of sorts... (maybe he was even a consultant for the DYRL movie?)

Afaik he wasn't in command of his old Nupetiet Vergnitzs anymore (which left Earth as escort ship for the Megaroad 01)... Since the U.N. appointed him Commander of the U.N. Spacy in 2016. So no, he didn't... He stayed on Earth.

As much as I'd love to see even more new valks in the series... Given the facts that there are only 2 episodes left and that we have been introduced to the new VF-171 EX... I truly doubt we will see any VF-24 in action... Sorry.

Did you see Macross II?

I believe that in the end it will be revealed that the Vajra thinking fold network was created from Sara Nome's mind. The Ring around the Vajra planet came from the damaged Birdman (as well as all the Vajra). And Aimo is a Mayan song... All this before everybody dies... (Tomino end)

For me, his finest work was Ideon (1980)... (Which Macross took a lot from... specially the death scenes...). I like Gundamu too, but ain't a super fan of it... (not as much as Macross) Back to Frontier... I wonder if Animage had the duration of the final episode? Is it going to be an standard 30 min episode or will it last an hour?

I believe Ideon had a similar outcome...

She's a coordinator/little queen for the Vajra... Through her singing the Vajra consciousness could manage to control the Vajra to fight even more effectively.... Kinda like the emulators from Macross II (Just another tribute of sorts). Also remember how in Episode 20 the Vajra attack became even more agressive when she became sad while singing...

According to wikipedia 2059 will be a Common year starting on Wednesday (Gregorian calendar), so I guess it is right...

U know, perhaps the Vajra are all killed in the ending, except Ai-kun... Then Ranka and Brera take him to some uncharted planet so he can evolve into a queen and reborn the Vajra race... This time without any interference from humans...
