Graham Posted March 5, 2008 Posted March 5, 2008 Guys, just picked up the April 2008 issue of Shonen Ace, containing chapter 3 of the Macross Frontier manga. This is a really kick ass issue. Spoilers: - Miss Macross Contest! Looks like Alto joins SMS and goes through some fairly intensive training. Mecha push ups in a VF-25.....LOL! New Meltrandi Q-Rau pilot character introduced. Looks like she belongs to SMS. Some great art of Alto's VF-25 Super in Battroid mode. I'd beeen wondering how the Super Packs looked in Battroid mode. Fantastic action this chapter, with a training dog fight between Alto's VF-25 Super and the new style Q-Rau. Graham Quote
Graham Posted March 5, 2008 Author Posted March 5, 2008 OK, here's the first 15 pages of chaper 3 scanned in. Here's the color intro page. Graham Quote

Graham Posted March 5, 2008 Author Posted March 5, 2008 Chapter 3, page 13. She's big! (in more ways than one). Graham Quote
Graham Posted March 5, 2008 Author Posted March 5, 2008 Chapter 3, page 14. That's all for today. More scans of chapter 3 to follow tomorrow. Graham Quote
azrael Posted March 5, 2008 Posted March 5, 2008 LOL! Michael is whippin the boy into shape...LOL! Poor Ranka.... Meltran can step on Alto...he better not piss her off.... Quote
Zinjo Posted March 5, 2008 Posted March 5, 2008 Chapter 3, page 6. Mecha push ups.........LOL! Graham Well if the VF-25 has force feedback controls it would actually make a lot of sense... Quote
VF5SS Posted March 5, 2008 Posted March 5, 2008 Hey, that's Klan Klein! As far as I can tell from the text, she's a member of Pixie Squadron. Quote
Mr March Posted March 5, 2008 Posted March 5, 2008 So the new Q-Rau reallly is going to be piloted by giant sized Meltrandi. Very weird. Quote
Strumvogel Posted March 5, 2008 Posted March 5, 2008 So the new Q-Rau reallly is going to be piloted by giant sized Meltrandi. Very weird. Oh if you think that's weird, you just wait till later in this chapter regarding her. Keeping it vague so's not to spoil it for everyone. Quote
Zinjo Posted March 5, 2008 Posted March 5, 2008 Hey, that's Klan Klein! As far as I can tell from the text, she's a member of Pixie Squadron. OK, I am not getting the reference... Quote
Zinjo Posted March 5, 2008 Posted March 5, 2008 Oh if you think that's weird, you just wait till later in this chapter regarding her. Keeping it vague so's not to spoil it for everyone. They show the Zentreadi sized portapottie? Quote
Graham Posted March 5, 2008 Author Posted March 5, 2008 You'll see later on. Spoiler: She get's micronized at the end of the chapter, but when Micronized seems to have the body of a little girl.....no idea why. Graham Quote
Strumvogel Posted March 6, 2008 Posted March 6, 2008 You'll see later on. Spoiler: She get's micronized at the end of the chapter, but when Micronized seems to have the body of a little girl.....no idea why. Graham Yeah, that's pretty much it though you have to remember that the manga's story has a more comedic twist to it compared to the tv series, if the first episode comparison is to be made. So this quirky instance may not be in the anime. Quote
Sorata Posted March 6, 2008 Posted March 6, 2008 (edited) OK, I am not getting the reference... It was the name of the all female squadron in Macross II. Spoiler about the Manga: Maybe it is that she (Klan Klein) just had a problem (error) being micronized and it just made her short. Its bound to screw up one way or another with millions of Zentraedi using it all the time just like when even routine surgery is botched. Edited March 6, 2008 by Sorata Quote
Graham Posted March 6, 2008 Author Posted March 6, 2008 OK, got another 12 pages of chapter 3 scanned. Here's page 15. Graham Quote
Graham Posted March 6, 2008 Author Posted March 6, 2008 Chapter 3, page 16, Q-Rau launch! Graham Quote
Graham Posted March 6, 2008 Author Posted March 6, 2008 Chapter 3, page 17. A good pic of the VF-25 Battroid with Super Pack Graham Quote
Graham Posted March 6, 2008 Author Posted March 6, 2008 Chapter 3, page 20. Another good pic of the VF-25 Super Battroid. I'm really liking how it looks. Graham Quote
Graham Posted March 6, 2008 Author Posted March 6, 2008 Chapter 3, page 23. Another good VF-25 Super Battroid shot. Graham Quote
