sketchley Posted July 17, 2008 Posted July 17, 2008 I read somewhere that a Beginhill training ship was covered with holograms and used as the prop for the Bodolza ship in the DYRL movie.
Mr March Posted July 17, 2008 Posted July 17, 2008 It's on the Macross Compendium, of course http://macross.anime.net/wiki/Do_You_Remember_Love%3F Do You Remember Love? Film about Space War I and Lynn Minmay that premiered in 2031 February. The film became an enormous success and revived the Minmay Boom the same year. It influenced later protrayals of Space War I and inspired many United Nations citizens including Basara Nekki, a pivotal figure in the Protodeviln War (2045 March-2046 February). For propaganda reasons, the film deviated from the historical events. Zentradi female commander Moruk Laplamiz was intentionally protrayed as a commander of an entire "Meltlandi" main fleet separate from the Boddole Zer Main Fleet, in order to emphasize the existence and danger of main fleets besides the Boddole Zer Main Fleet. (The movie popularized the Zentradi term "Meltlandi" for female Zentradi in general.) The movie also employed the East River training ship to protray Boddole Zer's mothership, using holography to alter the ship's outer appearance. Appendices Production Notes: Several episodes of Macross 7, particularly episode 11 ("Minmay Video") and the third unaired episode ("Fleet of Strongest Women"), excerpted the Do You Remember Love? film. This film purportedly produced within the world of Macross has several differences from the similarly named film, The Super Dimension Fortress Macross [the Movie]: Do You Remember Love? (1984). The 2031 film in the Macross world has Max and Milia fighting in space, which did not occur in either the 1984 film, or the first Macross series (1982). It also protrays Max and Milia's marriage which was not included in the 1984 film.
Master Dex Posted July 18, 2008 Posted July 18, 2008 I don't think this really qualifies as a newbie question but it seems like the best place to ask. Does anyone know the same of the song Ranka sings in ep.12 to tame the Zentradi. It is really catchy. I hope it makes it onto OST 2 (which better happen, there is so much stuff sing OST 1).

Seikan hikou, followed by Aimo, finally she sang Neko nikki during flight Alto VF-25, the ending credits is the Ranka version of Ai Oboeteimasuka. Darn, they should make Megumi perform Triangular and this will be 100% Ranka episode

Darn, they should make Megumi perform Triangular and this will be 100% Ranka episode I only needed the first one really but thanks. Is this a song that has been done before in Macross or is it new (I had thought it was)?
Morpheus Posted July 18, 2008 Posted July 18, 2008 I only needed the first one really but thanks. Is this a song that has been done before in Macross or is it new (I had thought it was)? Its Ranka single debut ^^
VF-25 Messiah Posted July 18, 2008 Posted July 18, 2008 Save for Aimo, all of the songs she sung in that episode is on that single, it even had her rendition of My Boyfriend's a pilot wonder if all of it makes it on OST 2

I haven't been looking but I bet somewhere has it. EDIT: Found it, I knew I would be able to find it. Edited July 18, 2008 by Master Dex
Sulendil Ang Posted July 30, 2008 Posted July 30, 2008 A question: how many missiles do VF-4 have? Because no matter how I count, I count 12, not 6 as mentioned by Macross Compendium.
sketchley Posted July 30, 2008 Posted July 30, 2008 Been talked about before here: http://macrossworld.com/mwf/index.php?show...0552&st=120 (last few posts. Especially when Egan Loo started participating.)
hikennoace Posted August 4, 2008 Posted August 4, 2008 This has probably been asked many times but what is Lucca relationship with Leon? They are not brothers, are they? And what does LAI actually stand for? Can't seem to recall any episode explaining what it is.
VF-25 Messiah Posted August 4, 2008 Posted August 4, 2008 (edited) This has probably been asked many times but what is Lucca relationship with Leon? They are not brothers, are they? And what does LAI actually stand for? Can't seem to recall any episode explaining what it is. Given the fact that they have different last names and look nothing alike, I'm inclined to say no. I think I somewhere heard that L.A.I. supposedly stands for "Light Aircraft Industries", but the correct answer probably is "it hasn't been revealed yet" Edited August 4, 2008 by VF-25 Messiah
RedWolf Posted August 4, 2008 Posted August 4, 2008 I've been wondering... What's the difference between the VF-11B and VF-11C? Can't see any.
Sulendil Ang Posted August 4, 2008 Posted August 4, 2008 I've been wondering... What's the difference between the VF-11B and VF-11C? Can't see any. You asked the same question I asked before, and March's Macross Mecha Manual should give you the answer. March, I think we should consider to put Sherly's breast pic as For Fans Only button very seriously...
Mr March Posted August 4, 2008 Posted August 4, 2008 LOL That's alright. Not everyone knows about my website.
RedWolf Posted August 5, 2008 Posted August 5, 2008 Besides the Compendium is there anywhere else I could learn Zentradi language?
Gubaba Posted August 5, 2008 Posted August 5, 2008 Besides the Compendium is there anywhere else I could learn Zentradi language? Well, there's always this...and you can download the font as well.
RedWolf Posted August 5, 2008 Posted August 5, 2008 (edited) I was looking for a more grammar reference though. Thanks anyway. Edit: New question. What is the real name of the CV-565 carrier in VFX-2? In Mahq it's listed as Enbaterion while in M3 it's listed as Saratoga II. Edited August 6, 2008 by RedWolf
sucker4meltrans Posted August 6, 2008 Posted August 6, 2008 anyone else crack up when maxmillian jenius is introduced in SDF Macross and he says he is a total novice and would like tips from hikaru?
RedWolf Posted August 6, 2008 Posted August 6, 2008 anyone else crack up when maxmillian jenius is introduced in SDF Macross and he says he is a total novice and would like tips from hikaru? He never flew a plane before. Hikaru had nore flight time and combat time. That didn't stop him from kicking ass in video games and meet his future wife.
sucker4meltrans Posted August 6, 2008 Posted August 6, 2008 still max is like "i don't know i'm a rookie at it i don't know if i am any good. oh wait turns out i'm an instant expert at this thing" for every thing he does in sdf macross
sketchley Posted August 6, 2008 Posted August 6, 2008 It's called good manners. Look it up: 謙虚. Despite his European origins, he's very Japanese.
RF-26AAC Posted August 6, 2008 Posted August 6, 2008 Why does everyone say deculture? What does Deculture mean, anyhow? It's referred to as a food, as a time, as an exclamation before death, god, it's like the Smurfs with the word Smurf. WHAT THE HELL DOES IT MEAN?!
RedWolf Posted August 6, 2008 Posted August 6, 2008 You're kidding right? Deculture or "De Culcha" in Zentradi can have several meanings. Usually expressed in surprise. The usual are Cool, Great, Awesome, at other times it means Unbelievable, Impossible. At worst case Oh Sh*t. Yakku Deculture means an extreme version of Deculture.

So it is mainly an exclamation. Although "See you next AWESOME" or "See you next COOL!" doesn't really work. So it is a lot like Smurfs and the word Smurf.
Mr March Posted August 6, 2008 Posted August 6, 2008 I came up with this for the Macropedia. Hope it helps: Deculture (de culcha) A Zentradi/Meltrandi expletive statement often spoken to communicate the feeling of shock (typically in context of the Protoculture). Included within the books for the Macross: Do You Remember Love? limited edition remastered DVD set is a list of Zentraedi/Meltrandi words and the Japanese/English translations. "De culcha" is translated as "stupid thing" or "terrifying thing". By themselves, "de" means "no" or acts as a negative prefix, and "culcha" means "wonderful thing". The closest english approximation would be the phrase "What the hell" in response to experiencing something shocking or bizarre. The phrase has since been adopted by the human/zentradi culture for use in a positive context, often spoken as a meme in popular culture.
RF-26AAC Posted August 6, 2008 Posted August 6, 2008 (edited) I came up with this for the Macropedia. Hope it helps: Deculcha = UNWONDERFUL!! Ok, now I have another question: Is there any sort of a rule or like feeling against fan-designed valkyries? Granted, not to be taken as Canon, but a unit all its own, is that like, um... what's the word... taboo? Mind you, I am not talking about a fricken existing VF-variant with a different head or recolor, but I came up with my own concept (all three forms)... I tell you, it's hard to think of how this stuff moves and such; I still don't know how they came up with the complexity that is the YF-19... Best, RF-26 AAC Variant Edited August 6, 2008 by RF-26AAC

Best, RF-26 AAC Variant He built it out of Lego's As for your question, uhm no? Inventing your own valkyrie is coming up with fan-material, which is pretty normal and untaboo-ish, I'd say. Just don't try to sell it

This is just a series of sketches and ideas that may or may not be introduced into a fanfic or roleplay at some point. I'm a big transformers buff, so... after designing a number of unique autobots, it was only natural I'd attempt a Valkyrie (triplechanger ) I wrote up a general overview of features, speculative place where it would go amid Macross Canon and wisely did not design a god-mode valkyrie... instead, I designed what I like to think of as the Ferrari of Valkyries.
VF-25 Messiah Posted August 6, 2008 Posted August 6, 2008 No, not legos. I meant Kawamori built the YF-19 out of Lego's

Granted, not to be taken as Canon, but a unit all its own, is that like, um... what's the word... taboo? Fan made art or fan fiction is what it is. Feel free to make some and share it here if you like to do that. There's no rule here on MW against it at all and the "Fan Works" section of these message boards have all kinds of threads featuring fan made designs. BTW, check out my website if you want to learn more about the YF-19. It's really not that complicated at all and if you take the time to marvel at the design, you'll gain a new appreciation for it.

I tell you, it's hard to think of how this stuff moves and such; I still don't know how they came up with the complexity that is the YF-19... as the others pointed out: the fan art section (search for the VF-5 design thread.) I agree that it is hard to come up with complex transforming designs. But the more practice you get, the better you'll become. Also, it's highly recommended to visually study real world things like aircraft and only use existing VF designs as a clue on how to best represent a 3D physical airplane in 2D lineart. Basically how to convey the sense of mass, shape and so on. And remember, Shoiji Kawamori has been designing transforming aircraft for more than 26 years. He's got up to a 26 year head start on the rest of us! (and yes, he did study airplane engineering in post secondary education.)

Well there is always the Orguss Valkyrie. Studio Nue's in joke on Super Dimensional Century Orguss. One in the three Super Dimension franchise. (Macross, Southern Cross, Orguss) The Orguss in SDC Orguss has 4 modes. Orgnoid mode (Battroid), Gerwalk mode, Fighter mode, Tank mode. Edit: Oh yeah did the pilot in VFX get a name or am I to assume it was Aegis Focker too? Edited August 7, 2008 by RedWolf

If I recall correctly, one of the early subs of the Deculture Edition of episode 1 had mistranslated the "deculture" bit from the Nyan-nyan song as pretty girls or something like that. It may be a mistranslation, but gorgeous, delicious, pretty girls is quite deculture in my book!
