If so, then Mikhail's gonna have to learn a thing or two from Basara then. Mikhail can't even get it on with one Meltran who he happens to be childhood friends with, Basara has his choice from a whole fleet.

Do I spy a VF-19 Custom Fire Valkyrie? "Sa hajimaruze SATURDAY NIGHT choshi ha dodai? LET'S STAND UP, BEETO wo kanjirukai"

Thrust reversers aren't enough to stop a fighter jet in the limited space of an carrier, hence the need for tailhooks. Except that Gerwalk mode takes up too much space in a carrier meaning that they'd still need to land conventionally, unless they had a mechanism to hold the Valk up while it stowed it's legs and deployed landing gear. They'd probably do something similar for ARMDs and similar while in space though; reverse to a stop then let the launcher arm pick the Valk up.

Macross Plus "Yak! Deculture!" Edition?

Despite the VF-1 being the only VF being officially called the Valkyrie, it seems that the name of the iconic fighter stuck and all future VFs are referred to unofficially as Valkyries.

You can order the bundle at Play-Asia

He inputs up, up, down, down, left, right, left, right, B, A, Start. Either that, or it moves through the power of Song Energy.

Only until Mk. II SuperSWAG is applied to the next gen VF/A-35J MAXL Custom with full armor parts, then the valk/building arms race starts all over again.

Bobby is fine, but GARby is better! And speaking of Alto, THAT Animeblog has a very interesting post on why Alto-hime is the best mecha-pilot ever (or why at the very least, he's better than 99% of the pilots we see today).

True, maybe someone should make a compilation of scenes where buildings get pwned "accidentally" by valks.

Ooh! twin arrestor hooks. I wonder though, what would happen if one hook misses? On hindsight though, I probably should have gone through all those scans before asking.

Macross from that period in time seems to have a grudge against buildings. Even Basara and Millia crashed into a few buildings in Macross 7 with no one caring.

It must be the avatar. Makes most of us think of an enraged loli-Kuran when you're posting.

Can't wait for the whole thing. I wonder though, which VFs will they be showing? Will it simply be those we've seen on TV and OVAs? Or will they include others (VF-3000, VF-9, VF-14, etc.)? Yes it does. Maybe they're using the same backgrounds from Zero in that scene.

The question now is where does the hook in the VF-1 deploy from? The arms?

Only if it had lead to an ersatz-yuri catfight... wait what am I saying.

I'm inclined to believe you'd translate that for free.

Yes, I've been told I have a habit of forgetting about them in other forums as well. Again, sorry, didn't mean to come off as ungrateful. The work on the scans is greatly appreciated.

Sorry, I made the comment in jest and never meant to offend.

They're using Nanase as bait to get you involved.

Might make sense since a mic is much closer to a flight stick than a guitar.

VHS banding issues make me nostalgic.

For STOL, enough aerodynamic lift that it can fly even at low airspeeds. On a related note, the SV-51 actually has twin lift fans mounted ventrally in it's fuselage (similar to the old Yakolev VTOLs) although landing the thing as a tail-sitter must've still been a b*tch.

Jacko likes shoutas, our Queen Sheryl however is more into ersatz-yuri. He was doing it wrong, had he taken his helmet off, then Sheryl's security would have recognized him as Superdimensional Princess Alto and treated he..err him with more respect. EDIT: Speaking of which, had the Chō Jikū Hime-sama Alto been included in the polling he'd have probably gotten 170 votes by now.

But that would mean that they'd transform into Gerwalk mode to land, in that's probably a no-no in the crowded space of an aircraft carrier (even one as large as the ASCA II or Prometheus) since it would require equipment to hold the valk up while it transformed back into fighter mode.
