Realist_Classic Posted September 6, 2008 Posted September 6, 2008 What about my Galaxy fleet? I'm thinking there will be a Season 2--you just don't go about investing manpower and hours designing a whole colony fleet just to use it as a place-holder, unless Kawamori and Co. made significant midcourse adjustments to the plot.
Kronnang Dunn 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... What about my Galaxy fleet? Could it be that the "NUNS reinforcements with improved system" are Galaxy? Btw... I thought the first spoiler mentioned that the planet was going to self-destruct. Is it going to be bombed by NUNS instead or what ? Make up your mind please...

I thought the first spoiler mentioned that the planet was going to self-destruct. Is it going to be bombed by NUNS instead or what ? Make up your mind please... According to the spoiler, the reinforcements are from Earth. Also, Ranka it seems intends to self-destruct after gathering all the Vajra to the planet. I suppose the explosion would have to be big enough to destroy the planet. Independantly of that however, appears to be that the NUNS intend to destroy the planet with the Fold weapon. Anyway, I hope Ozma hasn't bitten off more than he can swallow... Edited September 6, 2008 by VF-25 Messiah

Independantly of that however, appears to be that the NUNS intend to destroy the planet with the Fold weapon. Okay... So... Earth NUNS wants to destroy the planet and Ranka too. I bet that's not in Leon, Grace/Galaxy plans... Damn... I just hope Ozma doesn't end up helping Grace/Galaxy to save Ranka ... Probable ending... Sheryl stays in the planet instead (since she's going to die anyway due to the V-Type infection). The Vajra and the planet are destroyed. Ranka and Alto get together in the end... Grace escapes to Galaxy... (To cause trouble on season 2?)

The Vajra and the planet are destroyed. Ranka and Alto get together in the end... Grace escapes to Galaxy... (To cause trouble on season 2?) Don't think Leon has a clue as to what Grace/Galaxy wanted with Ranka. Last episode showed us Grace feeding him a lie that Galaxy was destroyed, so he's probably been kept in the dark quite a lot by Grace. In short he doesn't care. And the only way I could see your probable ending being true is if there IS going to be a season 2. No word on that though. EDIT: Thinking about it, It could be possible that the only thing Grace/Galaxy wanted from Ranka was for her to find the Vajra home world for them. Their treasure island... at any rate I think next weeks episode will provide a lot of answers. Edited September 6, 2008 by VF-25 Messiah
sketchley Posted September 6, 2008 Posted September 6, 2008 Looks like it stayed at the #3 spot for 2 weeks, then disappeared out of the top 10. What I find most interesting is that the 2001 release of Totoro pops up at 4th, slips to 6th, and then up to first! Go Totoro! 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.
Kronnang Dunn Posted September 6, 2008 Posted September 6, 2008 Does anybody has a longer summary for Episode 24?
Darial Posted September 6, 2008 Posted September 6, 2008 Does anybody has a longer summary for Episode 24? Nothing yet. And 2ch is up in arms about the spoilers Kresphy just posted because it didn't originate there and they have no clue where it came from. Quite a few Japanese posters there are calling it fake (a.k.a. foreign troll-fu), and there are no NT or Animedia scan yet. So I'd hold my horses and wait for a magazine scan or something definitive before getting too excited.
Fatalist Posted September 6, 2008 Posted September 6, 2008 Does anybody has a longer summary for Episode 24? Dude, I'm sorry but everytime i see your avatar, it creeps me out. Looks like an eyeless zombie Ranka or something.
Valkyrie addict Posted September 6, 2008 Posted September 6, 2008 if Earth sends reinforcements I demand to see VF-19F and VF-22S!!!

So I'd hold my horses and wait for a magazine scan or something definitive before getting too excited. Well, fake or not fake is very probable the planet ends up destroyed in the last Episode... since each and every Protoculture related planet showed in the different Macross series has been destroyed or devastated somehow (Earth, Rax... now Triangler?). Btw, I officialy name the new Vajra Main planet as TRIANGLER... Edited September 6, 2008 by Kronnang Dunn
Valkyrie addict Posted September 6, 2008 Posted September 6, 2008 (edited) it's funny if what was mentioned is actually true... is SDFM, Zentradi found Earth, came and destroy it to wipe out humanity, now it's humans that will arrive to an alien planet and destroy it to wipe out the living species, maybe this time humanity will get a culture shock... eeek Edited September 6, 2008 by Valkyrie addict
shan Posted September 6, 2008 Posted September 6, 2008 quick info NTバレ ランカは全てのバシュラを母星に集めて、母星事自爆死しようとする 。 Ranka collecting all Bajura in the Mother Star, and self-destruction. FULL info 地球からも新統合軍が新兵器惑星消滅兵器『フォールド兵器』を持って援軍として到着。 体制を立て直した新統合軍はバジュラの母星消滅を決定。 ランカが母星事、全てのバジュラと一緒に自爆死しようと知ったアルト達は、ランカを止めようと母星への強行突入を決行をする。 アルト達を信じたオズマは、単機で『フォールド兵器』を破壊しようと新統合軍に戦いを挑む。 NUNS decide to destroy Bajura's Mother Star with Fold Weapon. Alto prevent Ranka self-destruction and destroy Fold Weapon. S.M.S vs NUNS!! What about my Sheryl? This might still be unsourced right now but if this is how things are going to go, I must say that we're in for a one heck of a finale. This makes sense. A WHOLE lot. This may tie in with what the Galaxy is planning to do with the Vajra homeworld which is their "treasure planet". For Ranka to self-destruct together with the Vajra, I could only guess that Galaxy's dream will be detrimental to every human being alive. Of course the issue with Frontier and Vajra will also be another matter. Double death threats for Ranka---from herself and from the people she's trying to save. People who have hated on her character for so long will get....served. This will be amusing if this spoiler gets proven.

I'd wait for a magazine scan.
Gubaba Posted September 6, 2008 Posted September 6, 2008 I'm so not reading the spoilers. Ditto. Unfortunately, I feel like I have to check this thread occasionally for news info on merchandise, events, and the like, so I'm glad that everyone is putting spoiler tags over the stuff that I really don't want to read. I've completely stopped reading the plot speculation thread, however.
badboy00z Posted September 6, 2008 Posted September 6, 2008 I can't believe it's almost over. Hope there's another season or OVA or something.
sketchley Posted September 7, 2008 Posted September 7, 2008 Don't worry. Given what's happened with the previous "successful" Macross releases, it's highly likely that we'll see more Macross F (or another new Macross production.) Keep in mind: SDF:M -> DYRL, FB2012 (and all the other Macross series) M7 -> Galaxy is Calling, Dynamite, 3x bonus episodes. I won't be surprised if we get a movie, an OVA series, and perhaps even bonus episodes.

Westlo Posted September 7, 2008 Posted September 7, 2008 Don't get confident. We don't know yet if Macross Frontier is a success even in Japan. Off 1 volume alone it's already sold more than 90% of shows this decade...
Macross007 Posted September 7, 2008 Posted September 7, 2008 Off 1 volume alone it's already sold more than 90% of shows this decade... But we are talking for ONE volume. I want to see the sales for the upcoming volumes. This is why I'm saying that being confident at this time is illogical.

No being un-confident is illogical when it's already sold more dvds and bluerays off 1 volume than 90% of the anime produced this decade, when it's sold over half a million in singles and albums, when it's the second most popular anime this season going by mag polls and japanese forum activity behind Code Geass R2 (R2 and Frontier are so much more talked about on 2ch than anything else from Spring and Summer its not funny). It has 3 manga adaptions, a light novel adaption, a psp video game, had a pizza hut tie in. It's popular. Edited September 7, 2008 by Westlo

I fully intend to get a PSP just for ace frontier lol.
Westlo Posted September 7, 2008 Posted September 7, 2008 OK, you convince me. But I'm still waiting for a Macross PS3 game to be REALLY convinced. I want it made by the guys who make Gran Turismo! Omega Boost by PD on the PSX was nice, Kawamori designs as well!
