magnuskn Posted September 3, 2008 Posted September 3, 2008 And why the preview of last week was an indication of that? I don't remember seeing Ozma in it... You see a fighter being in the target lock in a space battle from the targeting display of another Valkyrie.
grss1982 Posted September 3, 2008 Posted September 3, 2008 (edited) Pretty neat advertising for the Lion single. http://www.nicovideo.jp/watch/sm4468046 Couldn't see it for some reason. Anyways speaking of promotions for the Lion single check this out: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GVof51xjn3w BTW...in the video I posted Megumi Nakajima and May'n look HOT. Especially Megumi with that school-type getup and the necktie. Edited September 3, 2008 by grss1982
VF-25 Messiah Posted September 3, 2008 Posted September 3, 2008 You know, based on the episode descriptions hidden behind all the spoiler tags, I wouldn't be surprised if we get a reverse SDF:M ending. The massive alien fleet defolds over the planet and begins to lay waste, wiping out most of the civilization. Except the massive alien fleet is the Frontier fleet. And it's Ranka who acts as the catalyst to get part of the fleet to join forces with the Vajra, turning around and pointing their guns at Leon and Grace. Or maybe more DYRL style, with after the initial bombardment we have two fleets in orbit, pounding away at each other, Galaxy and Frontier, with the SMS and the Vajra caught in the middle. That could be a really awesome finale, and I can see how they could wrap it up in the next few episodes. That reminds me of some old magazine interview in which Kawamori supposedly said (in regards to the Frontier fleet): "Wouldn't it be interesting if they were to get a culture shock?" Anyone else remember this and where it was from, or is my memory playing tricks on me? Anyway this is the ending I've been thinking frontier is heading for if it's going to be wrapped up completely by episode 25. Seems I'm not the only one.
wolfx Posted September 3, 2008 Posted September 3, 2008 Pretty neat advertising for the Lion single. http://www.nicovideo.jp/watch/sm4468046 So basically its just a moving billboard? I was expecting at some point for the box to open and May'N and Megumi to pop out in an impromptu concert.
magnuskn Posted September 3, 2008 Posted September 3, 2008 Couldn't see it for some reason. They changed the pictures for others.

Final Vegeta Posted September 3, 2008 Posted September 3, 2008 I don't necessarily disagree with either one of you, but this one just struck me. was there any actualy episode where Galaxy was established as the power behind the scenes? Sure, we have grace and her multiple AIs, but aside from showing the galaxy fleet on cam while the AIs are talking, we don't see any indication that the Galaxy is actually the puppet master. I don't read spoilers so I won't quote Magnuskn. Glad to have a way out Anyway, Vajra were influenced into attacking Frontier, but they are not puppets and don't necessarily do Galaxy's biddings. They could attack Frontier even when Galaxy doesn't want it, as demonstrated by ep. 20/21. FV
Spud387 Posted September 3, 2008 Posted September 3, 2008 (edited) Preview pics are up on the official site for ep # 22. Looks like Ozma is back in the cockpit. Graham Haha I was right! It was Ozma in his fighter ...i hope he doesn't die but... Edited September 3, 2008 by Spud387
taksraven Posted September 3, 2008 Posted September 3, 2008 I can't be bothered reading the whole threat. So is episode 25 going to be the final. If so, is it really called "Your sound"??? Taksraven
Gubaba Posted September 4, 2008 Posted September 4, 2008 I can't be bothered reading the whole threat. So is episode 25 going to be the final. If so, is it really called "Your sound"??? Taksraven Looks like it...and hey! "Anata no Oto" is the title of a Ranka song, so your previous speculation about the final episode's title wasn't far off...
UN Spacy Posted September 4, 2008 Posted September 4, 2008 Hmmmmm. The website changed two of the preview pics for #22. Do they not want people to know that Ozma reaches a VF?
Kronnang Dunn Posted September 4, 2008 Posted September 4, 2008 (edited) Its a long shot, but...... Very bad vibes from that and the change in the next episode's pics at the official site... Dammit, I guess it is confirmed now fellas... Ozma is dead meat on 22 ... I really really hope I'm wrong... Edited September 4, 2008 by Kronnang Dunn

Ozma is dead meat on 22 ... The site may have mistakenly placed the pic instead of whats now. We've seen a lot of images with Ozma in his flight suit. It may have been from an older episode for all we know. I'm not saying its not possible for Ozma to die but after episode 17 it doesn't seem he'll buy the farm this series.

Shin Densetsu Kai 7.0 Posted September 4, 2008 Posted September 4, 2008 I wonder how he avoided being executed by Leon? And Cathy? In the man's own words:"I told you, I can't die"

UN Spacy Posted September 5, 2008 Posted September 5, 2008 Frontier's Blu-Ray disc art is always a plus. Has anyone seen a cleaned up version for wallpaper use?
grss1982 Posted September 5, 2008 Posted September 5, 2008 AWESOME art. But, its too heart wrenching to look at times.

Final Vegeta Posted September 5, 2008 Posted September 5, 2008 Top 10 anime dvd sales of last week. No Frontier. Well, volume #1 came out over a month ago. I don't think there is a show that keeps record sales that long. Volume #2 comes out the 26th. FV
Darial Posted September 5, 2008 Posted September 5, 2008 Top 10 anime dvd sales of last week. No Frontier. http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/news/2008-...-27-september-2 This was MF vol. 1's rank when it came out: http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/news/2008-...king-july-24-30 Nothing usually stays on more than a week anyway, since that's where the initial demand is (unless it's a Miyasaki film or some such). It will be interesting when volume 2 comes out later on 9/26/08 to see if MacrossF can sustain the momentum.
sharky Posted September 6, 2008 Posted September 6, 2008 hence why I am afraid we will get a 'goodbye' love confession. I reckon she will somehow live, though-- but not before hitting the very edge of death. So, do you think Alto will cook Soba? I mean, what's more traditional than buckwheat noodles, seriously? I can see the advertisement now. "Killing off Vajra got you hungry? Try my noodles. They're O'tay"
Kronnang Dunn Posted September 6, 2008 Posted September 6, 2008 and... Nyan Tri(OST 2) cover? Nice artwork... Any release date yet?

Holy!!! The ending is going to be intense...!!!! Where is that information from? Edited September 6, 2008 by Kronnang Dunn
Realist_Classic Posted September 6, 2008 Posted September 6, 2008 That's pretty insane, if true. Such a showdown suggest a whole bunch of developments (i.e. body count) between now and the end, judging by Ranka's decision.
VF-25 Messiah Posted September 6, 2008 Posted September 6, 2008 (edited) Okay... not quite the way I expected things to go. Doesn't actually fit completely with what we've learned yet, so there's going to be pretty intense development leading up to this point as well. Also, I'd translate the longer spoiler as follows: NUNS arrive as reinforcements from earth, carrying a new planet destroying "Fold Weapon". The NUNS who have reworked their system decide to destroy the Vajra home planet. Alto and co, who have learned that Ranka is gathering all the Vajra to the main planet and plans to self-destruct, rushes to the main planet to stop her. Ozma, who believed in Alto and co, tries to destroy the "Fold Weapon" alone and challanges the NUNS. Horrid wording but it contains more info than the other. I'll try to polish it a little once I've woken up more... Edited September 6, 2008 by VF-25 Messiah
