  1. did ranka glow because of a massive data up load from the vajra got smoked by the macross cannon to the hive mind, or was she feeling the pain of those vajra?

    i'm still learning nihongo but did i hear that right they were going to use the Battle25 Macross cannon to boost Ranka's fold wave energy song?

  2. she must be esper(haruhism) in a ship as large as the macross she is always in the right spot at the right time to be there as the sage relationship guru. i mean the macross is huge yet she always there when hikaru or misa need her. if only she had slapped them both around episode 20 and got them hooked up earlier.

  3. In Macross Plus the throttle and stick in the YF-19 were shown with what looked like touch sensitive pads covering them. In Patloabor the mecha were controled by pumping and other manipulations of feet pedals to control the legs and feet, and gloves were put on to control arms and hands in fine movements. The orginal mobile suit gundam had just foot pedals and a pair of throttles to slide back and forth. In Char's Counterattack mecha had track balls with buttons on them at the end of joy sticks with foot pedals. Nu type mobile suits of course had pshyic controls, but they also developed systems to the pilot didn't need to be a nu type but could also have a limited about of thought control. Macross series have by far the most realistic if not the most descriptive controls.

  4. well in SDF Macross Misa, Hikaru, and Minmei were teenagers. by the time of frontier they would be in their 60s? i think they could safely use different voice actors safely.

    P.S. if we can't see or learn of Misa, Hikaru and Minmei's fate can they at least have an extra 5 minutes at the end of the last episode of frontier showing Kaifun dying a slow horrible death? i'm watching macross again and i am really starting to remember why i hate him so because he is a huge @#$hat.

  5. i almost wanted to stop reading rapierdragon's post when he said the R word but the design trend in modern air craft cockpits is touch screen displays. this cuts down a lot on the individual switches and dials. even in modern luxury cars like bmw and benz with their complicated entertainment systems and other electronic nanny devices most of the minor least used controls are on the touch screen and brought up with menu navigation, only the most common and important controls are left on the dash. i can imagine in macross they have furthered this even more. as far as a battroid putting on clothies and doing hand to hand combat i imagine there is a ton of AI programming. the pilot tell the valk to punch and where and the battroid AI carries out the movements it needs to.
