Why do feel like MF Movie is going to like Eva 2.0 where there will be several movies as reimagination.

Macross II timeline 1. Macross DYRL (You can also fit the prologue of the DYRL game) 2. Macross 2036 - Komilia's story. Quamzin back from the dead brings Zentradi Neld Fleet to attack Earth. 3. Macross Eternal Love Song - Quamzin back from the dead again brings the fighting Zentradi Burado Fleet and Meltrandi Leplendis Fleet. Komilia is back. The story is pretty much a rehash of Max and Millia love story. 4. Macross II Lovers Again - Mardook forces attack the Solar system. The story is about a prick journalist, a Meltran descended Valkyrie ace and sexy female Mardook emulator.

Does Kakizaki The Steak ring a bell? It should be brown though.

You mean the Vampire. So are we getting clarification finally on both so called VF-14 Vampires. Maybe...Just maybe the M7 Plus one is the VA-14.

We can attribute why Macross Quarter has a fleet of VF-25 is because of an eccentric billionaire who loves trains, french maids and Minmay.

This ep gives the reason why Flora is going to be reverse trap. Geez...

Hate to break it to ya but there are no official DVDs with English subtitles. Best you can get are fansubs.

Macross II is still a Big West OVA production and the sequel to DYRL. It even has supplemetary games that fill in its own timeline. So it is worth including in Macross Chronicle. It would be a miracle if games like Scrambled Valkyrie and VOXP gets acknowledged. Otherwise it is just two significant divergent timelines. PC Engine games and VOXP alone have many Zentradi and Meltrandi mecha that is so obscure.

Were getting to Basquash fetish territory here.

Actually he answered there is no longer a central government like in SDFM. That was the whole point of the Unification War. It was back to the original UN assembly set-up. In Macross 7 you get the feeling fleet military still answers to Earth HQ. Ivane Gyunter was some bigshot Advisor backed by Earth for the Varauta research expedition. Stupid Earth based admirals orders Macross 7 to attack the greater military forces of the Protodevlin and Chlore's fleet. In Macross Frontier the local NUNS answers to the fleet government. Enough changes that Reaction weapons use will have to go through the fleet president not Earth HQ again.

One of the reasons why many prefer the Macross ending. Besides Shammy outdoing Millia in the baby making department is amusing. The effects of Space War 1 was still felt 35 years later as mama Millia wanted her youngest daughter to marry. And you wonder what drove the sisters out of the proverbial house. Bet they were horrified of all the omiai proposals of their mother. Mylene the runt is their sacrificial lamb. At least Moa has an excuse of kicking combiner ass as a VF pilot.

They were called NUN or NUNG to begin with after Space War 1. The name change from UN Spacy to New UN Spacy implies reforms from the original organization. (They didn't change it after Space War 1.) In Macross 7 military fleet commanders were answerable to UN Spacy Earth HQ. In Macross Frontier the admiral was answerable to the local state President. As I stated above there were too many frak-ups from the military organization to be ignored. Wilbur Garland's treason could have been the final straw towards a shorter leash for the military by the NUNG. That's why PMC outfits like SMS are hired. At least theoretically they do as they are told as stated in the contract. (Not that it did a lot a good for Leon as Bilrer warned Mr. Pirate Jeffrey Wilder as a last hidden frak you that they are becoming government owned. )

They can make poles?

So are we finally getting class names for Meltran ships? Given how sparse we know about Macross Galaxy it is a treat. Miho Miho got a transfer to the Vahalla III. Kim Saintlaurent marries Doc Chiba. (Yes it had to be the meganeko MILF for him) Which brings to question what happen to rest of the bridge bunnies while the new Battle 7 was still being built. (Well at least the Twins could still have their job in their ship.)

The only named Stealth Cruisers before these Frontier Stealth Cruisers appeared on screen were the Haruna and Red Moon. Both were consecutive commands of Maximilian Jenius prior to Battle 7 and Macross 7 Fleet. Mylene was born on the Red Moon. All the sisters were at the Red Moon with exception of Moa who was serving as a pilot in Algenicus' Dancing Skulls. The only named Steath Cruiser in Frontier is the Akazuki, which promptly blew up. Also according to the Macross Compendium the Algenicus is a Special Forces Cruiser. Emphasis on Special Forces cause this ship had Max and Millia as a squadron. It had a lot of Zentradi elements in its design. Stealth Attack Variable Carrier Vessel (Vahhala III), Saratoga II Escort Battle Carrier, and the Special Forces Cruiser (Algenicus) are ships with elite cut above the rest squadrons which deals with terrorist threats like Zentradi rebels and Anti-UN groups. SWAT team versions of the typical Valkyrie squadrons. Their pilots can operate multiple types of Valkyries.

Thats Haruna. The Algenicus oes have a superficial resemblance to the unnamed stealth cruiser. Other mystery ships. Macross Plus Macross Frontier The ship the big arrow light.

Well UN Spacy likely got a rename after VF-X2 in 2050-51. Corrupt UN Spacy officer Wilbur Garland did a attempted coup on Earth. UN Spacy had problems with corrupt officials and inept leadership since Macross Plus and Macross 7. 1. General Gomez tried to replace pilots with AI fighters. (2040) 2. UN Spacy HQ abandoned Macross 7 fleet and ordered them a suicide mission to destroy the Protodevlin. (2046) 3. UN Spacy HQ ordered all remaining uncultured Zentradi fleets destroyed. (Subverted by Basara and Exsedol. Winning the hearts of an entrire Meltran fleet.) 4. Col. Bacelon performs illegal experiments and collaborates with the enemy to create a Zentradi rebellion in Macross 7. 5. Col. Barton is a military supremacist ego maniac. Negligently endangers Macross 7 just to get back at Basara. Did a conspiracy to create an Evil Series bio-weapon. Almost kills Doc Chiba as a witness. Even before that UN Spacy dabbled in bio-weapons in 2022. (Macross M3) The NUNS pilots in Macross Frontier are utterly green. SMS having most of the veteran pilots. With the bungles in the 2040's and early 2050's the NUNG finally had enough placing greater civilian oversight on the military. These reforms led to the rename.

Diamond... thunderbolt Its been brought up before. Well the Japanese word Basara is derived from Vajra. But in-story explaination of Macross Frontier Vajra and Ranka are part of the original lyrics of Aimo. As her disease spreads in her body Ranshe manages to learn deeply about Vajra.

In episode one of Macross Dynamite 7 which is one year after Macross 7 we see besides the new Battle 7 built is a Three Star. We assume that it is a new ship being built but looking over Macross 7 Trash there are smaller Three Star Industry vessels. Now the main Three Star ship may be an expanded version of these smaller vessels. These smaller commercial ships have their own smaller towns. In Dynamite 7 one of the smaller Three Star ships are merely being refitted to a full size one. I take it that Three Star is the corporate manufacturer attached to Macross 7 as much as LAI is to Macross Frontier.

Macross Zero reference. Its a Protoculture version of the poles scattered on Mayan island. Especially that of the one in the spring where naked Sara Nome sings.

Didn't notice that. All that exposition that Luca's AI are metaphorically are the last children of Israel went do=wn the drain. Who in their right mind would name their system Judas?! Its like you're expecting to be backstabbed... Oh wait...

Well I always saw Macross as BSG with only one ship. Only in this case they knew where Earth is and in the end they were the survivors of their civilization. Conditions on Earth were crappy in the early post-war years so it wouldn't be a surprise , especially those who experienced the voyage, to get the first ticket off world in a Megaroad.

Just doing a rewrite of my fic for tech accuracy by looking at the Compendium. Is the Atlantic Class: Attack Ship the same as the Rakutensu Mega-beam Attack Gunboat Vandal?

Reminds me of the discussion in Battlestar forum that the Galactica should accomodate more people and Vipers than it did.

Eden only? No Macross 7? No Zola? (Especially at that time of year.)
