So I'm wondering now, why is Sheryl still "all natural", when it seems to go against the very nature of the Galaxy fleet? If the Nome connection is real, I am wondering if her mother didn't disappear because of something the Galaxy had her involved with, and if they already have plans for Sheryl? Interesting.

It's a selling point and actually a part of her appeal. She mentions it in ep 5.

Interesting to notice that the translator for gattai noted the hanamichi thing. While it is relevant to kabuki, I just simply translated in a way that gets the meaning across and works in English. I think I did "It's your show now!" or something.

I was checking out the previews episode, and I'd just like to point the attention to details now, although, Sheryl concert is recycled animation from episode 1, they edited the missing earring... ;)

no, i think he's serious. another negative vote was just added to the poll. :p

Yeah, I noticed that, too...I kind of wish the negative voters for this ep would've given reasons why they disliked it, like "There are too many asteroids," or "I hate Fire Bomber and they mentioned Planet Dance in this episode," or "Vomit jokes are not funny," or "Ranka's a shemale with a glowing tummy, and that's just unnatural," or "Giant robots that turn into planes? Pop singers? Love triangles??? This is not what I watch Macross for!!!"

At the very least, it would've given the rest of us something more to talk about... ;)

Yeah yeah yeah, but I'm not buying that as the complete story.

No reason needed when you don't want to ruin that body! :ph34r:

I disagree. :) Strange things are afoot at the Circle K...

Ok, so, Quarter runs on a Nuclear Reactor ("reaction reactor" :lol:), the Vajra ship is powered by a "Fold Reactor", aka, purple stone.

Why can't I get the .ass file to work in MPC or VLC? I load the Shinsen RAW and then try to open the .ass file and it doesn't work.

Because your name is MisaForever, but you seem to have ditched her for Klan Klan.

:(

Indeed.

So, ok, here is my idea. You get a whole bunch of ships powered by this purple stone. Then you sing to it, and your ships are super powered.

Until I get official scripts/materials, I can't really say myself that it runs on a nuclear reactor. I don't recall them saying nuclear at all in the eps so far. There is one line that might be misheard to be so but I'm pretty sure it was "kakubu" as in "All departments" or "All systems"

Rather unsure about that theory, but it seems plausible. I'd venture that you might have to sing "Aimo" to REALLY get a reaction, though.

Conversely, it could be that I've simply watched Laputa too many times...

"Reaction furnace" in Gattai, "main furnace" in GG. I do recall someone posting about this yesterday or the day before...

You remember what section it popped up or a time stamp?

17:32 (GG release), 17:44 (Shinsen release)

Its right after we see that turbine begin to spin.

She definitely says "main", but the question is where she says "main reaction furnace" (Gattai) or "main furnace" (GG).

Which ep was this? I've been trying the timestamps on our episodes but I remembered that the encoder cut out the sponsors message so it's a bit shorter =x

GG has english subs and they seem more accurate than Gattay, at least judging from the opening scene.

I don't usually find anything wrong with Gattai's subs but I watched the first few minutes and found subs that didn't seem right at all. :blink:

Why was Sheryl being such a cheapskate by giving seats numbered M5&6 which are obviously very far from the front row? this is not the cinema, but a live concert.

usually the celebs give tickets to front row seats -_-

:ph34r:

I think, with some effort, we can find a way to blame this on MisaForever. :D

7.

Ah, ok. That line. I put reactor. She says "Main hannourou" hannou = reaction, rou = furnace/kiln/reactor. Kakuhannourou = Nuclear reactor but kaku isn't there so reactor makes sense. In retrospect, that makes a line I did in ep 6 wrong. Haha.

Someone who is more into the tech can probably answer this, but can we assume that its a nuclear reactor?

Luca was certainly shocked when he saw the Vajra were using a "Fold Reactor".

Gattai subs are obviously dodgy even to a non-speaker. Anyway i'm not getting GG since i already have 3 subbers on my hard drive. :lol:

Indeed.

Imagine if Basara did the singing. All the ships in the Frontier fleet will gattai and form SUPER DIMENSIONAL GALAXY FRONTIER MACROSS!

Anyway going back to my "what if" from a year and half ago of a new macross series, my original idea was that the new macross will be able to combine with another ships and or modules, and it may have the ability to do short distance folds to attack behind enemy lines, and get out almost immediately like a ninja. The way things are developiung with the Super Dimensional Crystal thing....this doesn't seem too far fetched.

I'm hoping the Quarter transforms into a big gun and the Battle25 dual wields it with its Gunship. That would be sick.

I think, if you do that, you're dropping Frontier down a notch. That just doesn't say "Macross" to me.

Too much super robot for him. =x I <3 Super Robots but man, that isn't Macross-like at all.
