VB-6 got some serious firepower and M25 has a gerwalk mode...sort of B))

However am i the only one who thinks that M25 moves alittle to agile for such a large ship ?

Yes! The M25 is no bigger than a 'Megazord and look how much it jumps around >.>

Well it apparently has hands, so anything's possible now... :rolleyes:

The captain has said it

He talk to Cathy like this: Remember why Quarter is only 400 meter? It because advantage in size. Something like that.

and lol at Quarter gerwalk mode

Darn, the action is so fast paced that I didn't realize

WHERE THE HELL IS THE VF-171!!!!

Did Alto

grab Sheryl's earring before his VF-25 blew up?

I don't think so. Definitely didn't see him grab it before going after Luca. Its a shame if he lost it, though because it seems to have some kind of positive effect at the same time that Sheryl was getting into her song at the concert. Some kind of mystical crystal perhaps? Hopefully we'll see more on this in the upcoming episodes.

To answer a previous question:

the port carrier deck is what the

Quarter Pounder (and I think it's earned that name) put on its back, shield-style

.

Damn, though. I want that new vocal...

Bah, the picture is kinda screwy with the 704x396 RAW. Its washed out.

I got a feeling that it was a conversion from the FLV one. Also notice the same lack of eyecatch.

The FLV one isn't washed out, though. I dunno, I just hope something better comes along.

We may have to wait for the TBS airing tomorrow.

Something i noticed, does Luca send some sort of signal to the Ghost fighters ?

Does he guide them with his radar ?

Sure looks like it as he has some sort of device that sends a signal to the ghost next to him.

It figures it would be THIS episode that we have problems getting the RAW for, LOL.

Well no surprise the raws are so few, 2 of the major anime raw providers were busted, so things are gonna be a bit lean until others take their place... :rolleyes:

I'm hoping [Zero-Raws] can release a better one, no sign of them yet.

Mind if I ask who?

He most likely does. After all, they are just probably dummies with the most basic AI after the whole Sharon Apple fiasco.

Of course, all that fiddling around is probably why he go captured in this episode.

They primarily get their raws from WinNY and Share. It may be a day or 2 before a good raw is available.

The wonders of OVERTECHNOLOGY...

The VF-27 seemed to be trapped inside of the Vajra ship along with Luca.

Wowowowowow, best episode ever :ph34r:

- looks like VF-27 is not Vajra nor Galaxy Fleet, probably its Mr.Birla private unit.

Mmmh...

Folding back to Galaxy Space? Doesn't make any sense to me, since they were already in Galaxy Space... Also the VF-27 destroyed Luca's Gunpod just when Alto was trying to release his VF-25 from the "tentacles". It used some sort of energy weapon. It seemed it didn't want Alto or Luca to leave the Vajra Carrier... The VF-27 also escaped just when the MQ fired its main weapon at the Vajra ship. To me it seems that

the red VF-27 is with the Vajra (as well as the 2 green escorts that appeared at the end).

I noticed some strange symbols in the "Leader" VF-27. I checked the Zentradi Reference. Those symbols in the red VF-27 are similar to Zentradi, but not the same... PROTOCULTURE? The cockpit seemed very very advanced. Since Brera Sterne (who is the pilot of the red VF-27) was playing AIMO with an Armonica at the end of the episode, I wonder if there is some connection between him & Ranka? Episodes 8 & 10 will tell...

This episode rocked my world. I noticed a lot of connections with Macross Zero/Seven... (TECH & MUSIC!!!). I was expecting this kind of action since the Deculture Edition. Finally we see SMS/NUNS kicking the enemies ass... B))

I noticed how Bobby seems to dislike NUNS officials/organization a lot. Perhaps they made him the man he is today?

(Btw... Screw Mikhail, Klan Klan, Ozma, Kanaria or Alto... Bobby Margot is the MAN!!!!)

P.D.: To those who claim this episode had bad animation/art... WTF? Have u even watched the episode? Same thing for those who gave it bad reviews... :ph34r:

Like that nick. :)

While we desperately await screencaps, I'd like to note just how Metran-inspired I find the Galaxy ships. Purple like Lap Lamiz's ship, Green like the original Q-Rau power armor, orange like... Uh, orange...

And reagarding Macross Quarter's maneuverability, just remember how fast Britai's ship 180-ed at the end of DYRL. If that has a remote basis in the Macross "fact", then other ships can pull such maneuvers if they're careful about it.

So is there anything else wrong with this current RAW other than it being washed out? I'm wondering if I should watch it or not.

Definitely watch it. If for no other reason than

the combat montages and Bobby's "Yaaaaaah!" moments (mostly coming at Cathy's expense)

. I really do want a typical-these-days-quality RAW to pop up, though, for avatar-brewing purposes...but I can wait a little longer for that.

When Sheryl started singing her final song and the Macross Quarter started bustin' out some moves

, I started thinking, "Gotai shoutai fumai no shooooooow tiiiiiiiime...."

What's next?

Will Bera Sterne start singing to Alto and telling him about the beautiful times they had together 12k years ago?

Yeah, the ships do look kind long and lean like the Meltran ships. Funny that I didn't notice that before, but I think you're right.

I suppose Britai's maneuver in DYRL could be taken literally, but I always felt that was more of a symbolic sequence meant to quickly show he'd switched sides rather than any indication of maneuverability.

Personally, I think the Macross Quarter is much faster than the other Macross ships because they built it much smaller. It explains why the Macross Quarter is only about 400 meters while the old SDF-1 was 1,200 and the the NMC is 1,500; because they wanted something much more nimble.

:blink: whoa did they switch producers? I'm not complaining or anything, but it's just surprising. just one question though....

what was sheryl saying when she cried.

I liked this episode and all but i wonder if they're going to keep this design of characters or if they're going to change it back to normal again.... ^-^ lets just cross our fingers for the best huh? :rolleyes:

Can't watch it right now since I've got head off on an errand. Hopefully it'd be done and ready when I get back, in half a days time.... ouch...

Yeah I notice there was a distinct lack of raws when I went searching for it just now. Usually there would be up to 4 different versions avaliable by now. There's just this one at the moment.
