Picked up Newtype Ace 2012 Vol. 10 today (yeah... it was like "yowzahs! 3 days early!")

The MF tote bag is pretty nice. Though a bit small. It looks pretty solid.

Documents of Macross No.003: SDFM: the complete explanation.

Glancing at it - looks to be the next step in the development process after No.003. This time, we get Kawamori's and Mikimoto's image storeboards (and what looks like an early version of the Monster in an illo I've never seen before!) The back half is an interview with Mikimoto and Itano.

No. 004 is apparently going to be: DYRL: the complete explanation.

NA Vol 10:

Minmei and Sheryl on da cover! (Sheryl's bust revealing top isn't a surprise, but the heart shaped bust revealing cutout on Minmei's IS! Yow'zas.

Playback in Divas: Ishtar

Manga:

Macross the First Vol 4 release: 2012.06.09

Macross the First: Laplamis and Miria! Though... it's only 16 pages. >.<

Macross Fortissimo (AKA Macross FF): just glanced at it. Not sure what to make of it. First few pages are Ranka and Sheryl in their underwear. Followed by a recap of the first arc of MF (Aruto joining SMS.) As Sheryl and Ranka are on stage singing together later in the story... really not sure where it fits into the timeline.

But what is Macross FB7? Any info? FB probably stands for Fire Bomber, but is it an OVA, TV Special, print?

The actual nature of the project has yet to be announced. As for what FB stands for - SOMEONE wasnt checking the front page about a month or so ago ;-)

What about the line in my post that indicates the context?

- Macross 7 Project: 1) BR release, 2) Firebomber concert, 3) "Macross FB7" (tentative) advancing

FB about M7 can only really mean 1 thing after all.

Damnit, Antibiotictab, that was fast! You beat me to it! :-)

Also, in a rather random announcement, official badges of rank are going to be sent out to fanclub members - which one you get is based on whether the recipient has been in the fanclub for 1, 2, or 3 years.

So will it be a program on the production history, rehashing the chronicle or both?

The chronicle. Sheryl plays the role as a history teacher and tells the Macross series' chronicle.

Great Mechanics.DX 21 is out:

Macross content is limited to a pair of interviews:

"Testimony 1" Hiroshi Oonogi

"Testimony 2" Masahiro Chiba

Otherwise, the magazine is well worth picking up. Lots of beautiful colour pictures of Yamato 2199, Gundam Unicorn Eps 5, Starship Troopers Invasion (I like the chainsaw they added to the Marauder Mk.II, next to the tri-barrel Gatling gun, of course), and so on.

Dengeki Hobby August 2012

Macross content has virtually disappeared. T.T

Hasegawa eggplane series is expanding with two MtR themed units:

- Eggplane VF-1A/J Valkyrie Double Plus version (tentative)

- Eggplane YF-19 Nothung version (tentative)

Both SRP ￥1,500

Macross the Forefront:

DX Chougoukin: VF-171EX, VF-25G Renewal Messiah, VF-171EX Armour Parts (due in December)

Yamato: VF-4G, VF-17D Super Pack, VF-19F

Hasegawa: VF-1A Angel Birds, VF-19A SVF-569 Lightnings

Metal Box: VF-1S Super Battroid Valkyrie (SD, of course)

Bandai Hobby: 1/100 Armoured Factory

... and the SDFM and DYRL BR releases.

And tucked into the last corner:

All night showings of the 3 Macross movies (DYRL & the 2 MF ones): July 6, 7 and 13. 23:30 to 05:45 @ Shinjuku Baruto 9. Tickets, etc. on the 30th anniversary home page.

... and a special documentary "from the birth of Macross to DYRL" on Tokyo MX, July 8, 20:00 to 21:00.

I just started watching M7 (I'm on ep. 23 now... I call anything after ep. 14 "the good part"). All I hear in my head now as I drive is Planet Dance! Planet Dance!! Planet Dance!!! As it says here you really have to love Macross to enjoy it. I am :D

I hate the thought of Basara silenced.

Best wishes Mr Fukuyama!

My personal opinion. "Super Dimension Seminar" tells nothing new, but today's "The Men Who Made Macross" was so interesting.

post-14942-0-91862000-1341750646_thumb.jpgpost-14942-0-91693600-1341750681_thumb.jpgpost-14942-0-48823100-1341750695_thumb.jpgpost-14942-0-96437500-1341750710_thumb.jpgpost-14942-0-41015400-1341750723_thumb.jpg

They said Zentradi words were only about 100 or so. Because the aliens have no culture, so no cultural words.

I watched the Yamato 2199's special program on Jun 26 on TV, Izubuchi-san said the Yamato stuffs asked a linguist about making Gamilas language in detail.

So interesting such a comparison is.

The rest will be written by another members.

Only 100 words in the Zentradi language? I think Macross Compedium has most of them listed. We might have to come up with remaining words to reach a hundred.

How many words do you think they devote to poo?

I re-watched the program.

Honda-san and Kawamori-san were the members of "Zentradi Language Production Committee." According to Honda-san's testimony, Zentradi have devoted themselves to fight, so their language may has not developed so well. They only used "go","kill" and some sort. Because of that explanation, they thought 100 words were enough.

So in DYRL, after dogfighting of Max and Millia, she said "beautiful" after he said the same word. Even such a "cultural" word have not been used in Zentradi. That scene implied the instant the Zentradi touched on the culture the micrones have, he said.

I’ve seen some real world youngsters around my city who don’t seem to use many more words than that. Of course, they’ve got lots of options for poo and stuff.

How unrealistic is it for a language to be composed of only 100 words?

Not too much, in fact. Apparently one only needs to know 200 words to be able to communicate at a basic level in Japanese. 400 words for English.

Strip out culture words... et voila! It'd still be very basic... but on the flip side, it does explain the intense, immediate fascination the Zentraadi have with Earth's cultures.

Sayaka Kanda. I remember that she appeared Nakajima-san's Blog called "Mamegu-memo" before. She said she was/is a big fan of Ranka then. She was/is famous before being born because of a daughter of Seiko Matsuda, a very famous idol in Japan.

And Kanae Yoshii. She is a member of an idol group "Nine". But I like another member, Umika Kawashima. lol.

So is this the new series?

An emo musical drama?

I applaud the spin off idea, but will miss the mecha....

No, it's an actual honest-to-goodness musical stage-play.

As such, it'd be kinda difficult to fit mecha in.

Unless they use cute girls in transforming mecha costumes like the Ranka Dainamu commercial in Itsuwari no Utahime.
