Macross General SCOOPUDA thread

Gubaba · September 4, 2012

Those are pics from the Megaroad Launch Ceremony which I am hoping to have a report of up by the end of the week.

Three of the actresses from Musicalture were there. One of them was the winner of the Actress 'Wing" of the Miss Macross Contest.

Seriously, you need to explain the stuff you post and stop expecting others to do it for you.....

Sayaka Chan is not a newbie. She is Matsuda Seiko’s daughter.

I really think she is cute than Miss Macross 30...

Oh, BELIEVE me, I know that better than anyone. Ask VF5SS or Renato if you don't trust me...

VF-15 Banshee · September 4, 2012

In that picture I'm guessing that Sayaka is sitting on Megumi's right, Aya Endo on the left, Shou Hayami is the dude in the suit and Mika Doi is standing on... his right?

To show something to the other person depends on your own presentation ability. Not only translation thing, you see? To explain things to the other people easly and understandable is essential to human communities. Without it, you couldn't even take out a bank loan to entrepreneurs.

Just updated the music special piece on the front page. Will have a few more updated details tonight:

http://www.macrosswo...-musix-special/

EDIT: Added broadcast pamphlet details

片木ゆき is the winner of 550 contestants.

I remember Megumi is the winner of 5000.

Macross 25, 5000

Macross 30, 550

POOooor Macross Diva...

.....Sayaka Chan is not a newbie. She is Matsuda Seiko’s daughter.

I really think she is cute than Miss Macross 30...

You are actually comparing Apples to Oranges there. Miss Macross 25 was for a major role in an anime series and associated music deal. It was a kindofa a BIG thing. Miss Macross 30 is for two (actress wing and songstress wing) complete newcomers that wont necessarily be playing the main role and is for a live production in Tokyo that lasts for a week. The scale (and stakes) arent really comparable.

As for cuteness, Yuki is supposed to be a complete amatuer. thats where the interest and appeal lies for the audience. She doesnt even know how to speak properly in public yet. Sayaka is an older, trained professional and it shows. The two have very diferent roles and got equally different audience responses at the Launch Ceremony.

In that picture I'm guessing that Sayaka is sitting on Megumi's right, Aya Endo on the left, Shou Hayami is the dude in the suit and Mika Doi is standing on... his right?

You would be correct sir! Back row from left: Mika Doi, Sho Hayami, Tomo Sakurai, Aya Endo, Megumi Nakajima.

Front row is for the MUSICALTURE representatives: (from left) Yuki Katagi (winner of the 'Actress Wing' of Miss Macross 30), Kanae Yoshi (from '9nine') and Sayaka Kanda.

Oh, BELIEVE me, I know that better than anyone. Ask VF5SS or Renato if you don't trust me...

Dude, I spent Sunday witnessing Sayaka first hand. We have much to discuss when we next get some drinks ;-)

Tochiro · September 7, 2012

The winners of the Miss Macross 30 Contest have been officially announced:

http://macross30.com/mmc/

Singer Wing: Haruka Chisuga (20y/o from Iwate)

Actress Wing: Yuki Katagi (19y/o from Osaka)

Interestingly, while Haruka outright won the Singer category, there was no grand winner for the actress category. Yuki was an applicant who the judges thought had a character that they wanted to portray in the Musicalture. Yuki's forst appearance on stage was at the Megaroad launch ceremony last Sunday.

About Nico-Nama (Niconico Live)?

The Macross 30th Anniversary urgent special program will be aired on Nico-Nama.

Full of the info of Macross FB7, the Musiculture, and the SD amusement park in Tokyo Dome City attractions for 90 minutes including the FB7's untold one. The staffs will answer the viewers' questions.

The guests will be appeared later.

On Sep 13th 21：00～22：30(JST).

http://live.nicovide...tch/lv107025837

I wonder if this one could be watchable outside of Japan. I remember the Culture Japan Special Program by Danny Choo was aired not only by Nico-Nama (in Japan), But also live.niconico.com.

But Harmony Gold, Hmm.

Thanks for the info. I suspect Culture Japan is able to be broadcast internationally because Danny Choo specifically wanted it that way -- that is, after all, his main aim. I am not sure if BigWest is willing to go to the trouble of doing that, but we shall see.

Danny may be watching MW. He sometimes says he liked Macross so much. And in his autobiography, Focker's face is in his TV set from his photo.

I re-watched Culture Japan Season 2 episode 10. When he was asked, "Your Japanese is amaging, how did you get so good at it?" his answer was, "It all started out with the 'Super Dimension Fortress Macross' movie."

And today's his Facebook page. "Macross Mecha Manual" was posted. What a coincidence.

I found this article in the Culture Japan web site by chance.

"Those days were very intense. No matter what I drew, I never got an OK." (Haruhiko)

"As it's said that a creator's talent dries up at 35, whatever I do afterwards is good (laughs)" (Kawamori)

"In the hand-drawn era, it was often the case that a large volume of pictures were completed. Now that's absolutely impossible!" (Haruhiko)

"'7''s radio-cassettes carelessly forgot to show the setting of the contents." (Haruhiko)

"Minmei is cute, however she's a girl who's a nuisance to other people. I want to preserve that." (Haruhiko)

"An objection came when Basara shot the missile. Persevering through something difficult makes one stronger, it does!" (Kawamori)

Next Issue Line-up:

Macross the First

Back Cover: 1 pg Macross 7 BR Box Complete Fire add (with small Macross FB7 plug)

So how does this work? Shirow comes up with the concept and story and Rikudo the actual manga?

I'd also say Shirow hasn't done anything relevant with a story for the past 10 years now.

What's the work called anyway?

Anyway, it seems that the numbered tickets are not distributed for this event. Can't believe it.

http://tgs.cesa.or.jp/index.html

Even the Toki-towa event needs tickets...That game is not so famous and has not been sold yet.

We should keep an eye on the news about the ticket distribution.

From the special program in Nico-Nama.

#1

From Sep 22nd, the new trailer of FB7 including Fire Bomber's new song will be revealed. As Tochiro wrote in FB7 thread. :-)

From the day the TGS event is held. Hmm. Not the coincidence, I guess.

#2

The Musiculture web site was revised today, and the sample voices and the songs were added.

#3

The food menu of SD Amusement Park's tie-up. Kakizaki's beef stake and pineapple salad. lol
