sketchley Posted September 4, 2010 Posted September 4, 2010 I've been continuing the translation of Great Mechanics.DX, and one of the sections penned by Dr. Chiba has a startling revelation (which makes sense when one thinks about it). But it's raised a question in me: who is the writer who goes by the name Dr. Chiba? Is he an extremely knowledgeable fan, or is it Mr. Kawamori himself using a nom de plume or pseudonym? Quote

Maybe it's Eiji Kurokawa. Quote

Is he an extremely knowledgeable fan, or is it Mr. Kawamori himself using a nom de plume or pseudonym? 'kay... I don't know if he's still alive or active in the Macross franchise, but is there a chance that "Dr. Chiba" might be Masahiro Chiba? Considering the source you mentioned was Great Mechanics DX, I'm assuming this revelation you've uncovered pertains to the mechanical designs and/or continuity of Macross, and mechanical design spec is his particular contribution to Macross. (Other than that, the only Dr. Chiba I can think of is the holder of a few patents on network server management software) Edited September 4, 2010 by Seto Kaiba Quote
