Mr March Posted March 31, 2007 Posted March 31, 2007 Sorry, but if you are implying SDFM doesn't have as good if not a better story than the majority of the pablum in anime I have to disagree. The animation is certainly dated and poor in some parts considering it was made for so cheap. The music is a preference thing and really one can't seriously debate a preference.... Of course you'd disagree, you're a Macross fan and thus not representative of the majority of the current japanese anime fandom. As for SDF Macross, I implied the animation and music are the two strikes against the series as it relates to current fandom. I don't see how it could be the story, particularly since I'm also a Macross fan
Mr March Posted March 31, 2007 Posted March 31, 2007 He made 3 points (story, new music and new animation)... and then said 2 strikes. so I think it was implied that that he meant... it's got good story but the animation and music are old. Where as Macross 7 has a good story but slightly less dated music and animation. That's exactly it. Well, except for the Macross 7 part, but I'm not a japanese fan so my taste or distaste for that series is really irrelevant in the context of this discussion I would think.
Beltane70 Posted March 31, 2007 Posted March 31, 2007 M0, totally forgettable. Forgettable to you maybe, but I totally love my M0 soundtracks.
Keith Posted March 31, 2007 Posted March 31, 2007 I like that song too, but the 15th anniversary one. The pacing on that one sounds better to my ears than the original, plus the more prominently featured guitars. That was an awesome version, too bad it's only been released on one single.
Wes Posted March 31, 2007 Posted March 31, 2007 Man I should have really stuck my head out of the "Other..." thread like a month or two ago. Then I would be trying to catch up to a 16 pg discussion! I hope it's not a sidestory, and that it isn't longer than it should be (Macross 7 being the example). The one thing I don't want to see that I don't believe I saw anyone else mention is having a 14yr old kid being sexually assaulted every few episodes. You would have thought Max would have bought his daughter a gun after the first couple of times! And hopefully we don't get a bunch of emo teenagers. Well-adjusted adults will do fine.

Are you serious? She gets sexually assaulted? Macross 7 is the only one of the series I have yet to see. ...I would have never thought there'd be something like that in any Macross series. Wasn't Macross 7 geared more towards teenagers and younger or something?

Wasn't Macross 7 geared more towards teenagers and younger or something? Wes was overexaggerating; Mylene doesn't get assualted. It's just she acts so young and her suiters act very mature.
jenius Posted March 31, 2007 Posted March 31, 2007 She does almost get raped by a woman in the movie though... that was interesting. Other than that there's just a bit of sexual harassment, not really assault (splitting hairs a bit) in the series. There is an episode dedicated to perverts selling pictures of her panties though.
Duke Togo Posted April 1, 2007 Posted April 1, 2007 Can we have a separate thread for the people who want to bash/support Macross 7?
azrael Posted April 1, 2007 Posted April 1, 2007 Alright....enough already. The open casting call ends as of today. Now we wait for our next Minmei to be found.
valk1j Posted April 1, 2007 Posted April 1, 2007 Alright....enough already. The open casting call ends as of today. Now we wait for our next Minmei to be found. I can't wait.... Bomba!!!!!
Valkyrie addict Posted April 1, 2007 Posted April 1, 2007 Alright....enough already. The open casting call ends as of today. Now we wait for our next Minmei to be found. big shoes there to fill
MacrossCN Posted April 2, 2007 Posted April 2, 2007 Alright....enough already. The open casting call ends as of today. Now we wait for our next Minmei to be found. Why is next Minmay? Why not is next Mylene???? - -
hyp36rmax Posted April 2, 2007 Posted April 2, 2007 I can't wait.... Bomba!!!!! bomba? when i read that to me i saw 'naked' in tagalog hahaha
Aegis! Posted April 2, 2007 Posted April 2, 2007 god, the wait is killing me. Can´t they just say something ? at least an official announcement, given the fact that everyone already knows, at least they could confirm.
Keith Posted April 2, 2007 Posted April 2, 2007 It shouldn't be too much longer before story elements come out.
azrael Posted April 2, 2007 Posted April 2, 2007 Why is next Minmay? Why not is next Mylene???? - - Fine.....next singer....happy now?
Zinjo Posted April 3, 2007 Posted April 3, 2007 "Patience is a virtua." When waiting for new anima, one must have the spiritia and patience of a monk....
Wes Posted April 3, 2007 Posted April 3, 2007 Patience is a virtue. A virtue is middle-ground between two extremes. That doesn't warrant having too much of it. Think about it; how long have we waited for new Macross, and for a new Macross series, and how long for one that didn't suck?!?! We've been bumped out of middle-ground for some time, friend. We need something good.
Lightning Posted April 3, 2007 Posted April 3, 2007 We just need something different, in a different time period. everything under the sun's been getting rehashed lately...
big F Posted April 3, 2007 Posted April 3, 2007 We just need something different, in a different time period. everything under the sun's been getting rehashed lately... SHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!! more spacewhales.
Guest sh002 Posted April 3, 2007 Posted April 3, 2007 It would be cool if it was like Macross VF-X2 the series.
Zinjo Posted April 3, 2007 Posted April 3, 2007 It would be cool if it was like Macross VF-X2 the series. Except NO cliche'd Macross TERRORIST group as the antagonists. A legitimate rebellion or an independent alliance outside the control of Earth Gov. would be far more palatable than yet another "terrorist anti-UN group"
Ginrai Posted April 3, 2007 Posted April 3, 2007 Oh yeah, because SDF Macross, DYRL, Macross II, Macross Plus, and Macross 7 were all about terrorists.
Juan Posted April 4, 2007 Posted April 4, 2007 Why is next Minmay? Why not is next Mylene???? - - easy one, we kinda don't like her, as a singer and Character I hope Minmay or Like the Macross + singer............... hot
VF5SS Posted April 4, 2007 Posted April 4, 2007 How can you not like Mylene? She takes after her mother.
sketchley Posted April 4, 2007 Posted April 4, 2007 Oh yeah, because SDF Macross, DYRL, Macross II, Macross Plus, and Macross 7 were all about terrorists. This is an old topic that the originator of it in this thread refuses to let go of: http://www.macrossworld.com/mwf/index.php?...mp;#entry462200
Shin Densetsu Kai 7.0 Posted April 4, 2007 Posted April 4, 2007 So is there any set date for when the 1st episode of this is supposed to appear? I've looked but have not seen anything, all I know is that is is after Kissdum. I think it might be cool to see a time far into the future, maybe 2060 or so, so its later than Macross 7 and we get to see what Kawamori cooks up...his most advanced VFs are the VF-19 and VF-22...so fast forward 20 years later and what the valks could end up looking like could be very interesting..
