Kronnang Dunn Posted April 27, 2008 Posted April 27, 2008 (edited) Which is your favorite character from the Macross Frontier animated series so far (& why)? Mine's got to be Ranka Lee. She is part Zentradi... has a mysterious & tragic past & has green hair!!! Personally I have way more sympathy towards her than to some of the other characters like Alto & Sheryl... She's a tragic figure... I can't wait to find out what will become of her during the series... Edited April 27, 2008 by Kronnang Dunn Quote
akt_m Posted April 27, 2008 Posted April 27, 2008 (edited) No pool???? After ep. 4, my vote goes to Ranka!!!! Edited April 27, 2008 by akt_m Quote
Radd Posted April 27, 2008 Posted April 27, 2008 I really don't know that I could pin down a favourite quite yet. I enjoy all the characters, so far. I am looking forward to seeing more of the supporting cast, and seeing just what the Vajra are. The show seems so one-sided so far, without any villain characters. Quote
darkrealmbahamut Posted April 27, 2008 Posted April 27, 2008 I need more time to get attached to them. It will take me a while to give up Max as my favorite, I could possible let the Frontier crew in just need to give them time. Quote
MisaForever Posted April 27, 2008 Posted April 27, 2008 There are too many good ones to choose one personally. But we'll see, with time I may find a favorite. Quote
wraith1701 Posted April 27, 2008 Posted April 27, 2008 Right now, my favorite character is Ozma Lee; he reminds me of Fokker, my favorite character from SDF Macross. Like Fokker, he's an experienced ace pilot, but with more of an edge. This, along with his mysterious past involving Ranka and the Vajra, gives his character a lot of potential for further development. I just hope he doesn't get killed off before his potential can be realized. Quote
UN Spacy Posted April 27, 2008 Posted April 27, 2008 I don't have a favorite right now. But I'm already liking them more than ANY of the cast in Macross Zero (sans Roy). Quote
mike_s_6 Posted April 27, 2008 Posted April 27, 2008 Alto, I love watching him get kicked and whacked around by just everyone, I don't know why. Among the girls, it'd have to be Ranka, because she's cute Quote
Ozma Posted April 27, 2008 Posted April 27, 2008 My choice should be pretty obvious from my Avatar. Yes, Ozma seems to be a badass version of Roy with a mysterious past - this guy should be fun to watch. Quote
Graham Posted April 27, 2008 Posted April 27, 2008 Too early to decide on a favorite character. Need to see more. I'm liking them all so far. Graham Quote
Heron Posted April 27, 2008 Posted April 27, 2008 Too early to decide on a favorite character. Need to see more. I'm liking them all so far. Graham Agree with the above but I have to say the VF-25~ Quote
Gubaba Posted April 27, 2008 Posted April 27, 2008 I'm still undecided as well...but I think Nanase's definitely the cutest. Quote
Valkyrie addict Posted April 27, 2008 Posted April 27, 2008 need more time to see who I prefer, but for the moment, I'm liking Sheryl, I like my women strong and determined... Ranka is too needy... I'm liking Mikhael too, the guy is just suave, but I have a terrible feeling he could not last forever... Quote
Fortress_Maximus Posted April 27, 2008 Posted April 27, 2008 None of them so far, but I will wait and hope to see more interesting characters in the near future. Quote
badboy00z Posted April 27, 2008 Posted April 27, 2008 Klan Klein in loli form because that last scene was so funny and random. Quote
ShizumaRobo Posted April 27, 2008 Posted April 27, 2008 Ranka Lee is easily the most charming character on the show so far. Though in the end, I know the other characters will grow on me as well. Quote
Sergorn Posted April 28, 2008 Posted April 28, 2008 Ranka. Definitly. I mean she's just so adorable I dunno I mean Minmay and Mylene sure were cute... but then they also had they annoying moments (well espcially Mylene). Ranka just seems to... I dunno is there was to be a definition of "perfect cuteness" Ranka would juste fit And in spite of being so cute and loveable, she also seems an interesting character... so yeah she's got my pick ! Don't ever change Ranka-chan ! -Sergorn Quote
dreamweaver13 Posted April 28, 2008 Posted April 28, 2008 too early to tell, for me. so far, i love them all. can't single one out as a favorite. ranka's adorable. sheryl is very interesting. alto's an amusing hero. ozma kicks ass. klein klan is endearing. everyone else is so interesting so far! i CANT DECIDE!!! Quote
wolfx Posted April 28, 2008 Posted April 28, 2008 Klan Klein for me. She has some awesome bounce boobage and turns loli as well. What more can a man ask for? Quote
VFTF1 Posted April 28, 2008 Posted April 28, 2008 I'm happy to see so many people have warmed to Ranka - she is indeed adorable. However, I too generally don't have a favorite character so far... it's really hard to say... But then again; I don't think I ever had a favorite character in Macross - each of them was well developed and interesting... Macross Frontier seems to be following this trend. If I had to say who has made the best impression on me so far it would obviously be Ranka. VFTF1 Quote
ComicKaze Posted April 28, 2008 Posted April 28, 2008 My god! Klan Klein has both the giant Zentradi softness and the loli crazyness! Quote
Garou Kuroryuu Posted April 28, 2008 Posted April 28, 2008 Guys: Ozma (the guys a bad ass) Gals: Klein Klan (I don't think I need to explain, right?) Quote
VFTF1 Posted April 30, 2008 Posted April 30, 2008 Actually - after watching episode 3, I have to say that suddenly an underappreciated yet positive-impression-making character is... Canary! here's why: 1) She's quiet and doesn't make a fuss, but seems to always be available in the most critical moments 2) She doesn't get involved in conflicts, but steps in when real help is needed (as in physical help) 3) She's good looking All of these factors make her an under-appreciated favorite for me.

VFTF1 I like her too...but I think it's mostly the hair. She's got GREAT hair. Quote
MisaForever Posted April 30, 2008 Posted April 30, 2008 I like her too...but I think it's mostly the hair. She's got GREAT hair. I have no idea who Canary is and that scares me. Quote
Kronnang Dunn Posted April 30, 2008 Author Posted April 30, 2008 (edited) I have no idea who Canary is and that scares me. The female VB-6 König Monster Destroid pilot... Her name really is Canaria Berstein... Edited April 30, 2008 by Kronnang Dunn Quote
MisaForever Posted April 30, 2008 Posted April 30, 2008 The female VB-6 König Monster Destroid pilot... Her name really is Canaria Berstein... Oh right, I know who Canaria is, why are people calling her Canary? That's not her name in the subs. Quote
VFTF1 Posted April 30, 2008 Posted April 30, 2008 Oh right, I know who Canaria is, why are people calling her Canary? That's not her name in the subs. Um - heh...well... the reason is simple... The word "Canaria" is pronounced the same as a Polish word "Kanalia" - and in Polish "Kanalia" means "Evil dumb stupid treasonous bitch who must be pounded into the ground and ought not be trusted and is usually physically ugly"... So I guess I instinctively didn't want to call...Canaria...er...Canaria...because to my ear it sounds like a very bad word that doesn't match the character.... But then again Canary doesn't help either - it reminds me of the transvestite super heroine.... So I guess I'll train myself to say Canaria without the allusions... And yes- she does have GREAT hair!

VFTF1 Hmm... well to each their own, her and Leon have INTERESTING hair. I prefer Ranka and Cathy's though. Quote
taksraven Posted April 30, 2008 Posted April 30, 2008 Not a character I know, but I really like the "Big Red" Vajra's. So far just about everything about them has been cool. Their combination bio-mechanical aspect is interesting, their actual design is really cool (I love it when they rear up with all their arms outstretched), their single-minded determination and tenacity (even with his head blown off, the one in Ep3 still goes for it), the fact that they are so deadly (I still think that they made the destruction of the one in Ep4 TOO easy, it should have at least killed some cannon fodder.) and ultimately that they are so different from anything that we have seen in Macross before. I especially like the way that the one in Ep2 gets "distracted" by Ranka's scream when she is groped by Alto. The cool way that it (fatally) ignores Ozma like he isn't even there and then the poor bastard gets it in the neck. It will be interesting to see what happens with these creatures in the future. I think that they will turn out to be the fighters for another race, bred to do the dirty work. Whatever their true nature, I just hope that the producers don't stuff it up. Taksraven Quote

The cool way that it (fatally) ignores Ozma like he isn't even there and then the poor bastard gets it in the neck. I was decidedly under the impression that the Vajra was recieving an incoming transmission calling for withdrawl - and that's what distracted him. Ranka just happened to sense the transmission as well. Is is just me or does Ranka pick up Vajra wave-length? VFTF1 Quote
