Basara Nekki

[Gubaba]

... and maybe, just maybe people will read his posts once more...?

Kudos to you for trying that edjamukation thing.

I do my best, y'know?

But there's only so much a little furball can do... Especially when people like you start asking where the T. Rexes are.

[leading edge]

Here goes Basara is a singer Isamu is a pilot. Which do you like more.

Here goes: Basara is a singer, Isamu is a pilot. Which do you like more?

[leading edge]

Ok which one do you like?

Translation: Which will you argue about.

I thought nobody would mention it XD

I dunno, man...maybe I'm misremembering, but it seems like Basara piloted a VF-19. Am I wrong?

Ups, at which point did the thread’s subject changed that much?

[leading edge]

I feel when I post something you seem overtly hostile to my opinion Gubaba. Anyhoo which does everyone like you know who would you prefer. That seems to be the topic now.

Saying that Basara also pilots a Valkyrie is "overtly hostile"...?

So if I say that, say, Minmay sings, would that also be "hostile"?

c'mon, dude. you're just needlessly picking on him.

we all know what he meant.

if it pleases you, i'll restate his question:

Isamu == military pilot.

Basara == singer.

[VF5SS]

Basara is a singing pilot.

Just like Ozma.

Basara still pilots, yes?

And um...did Max say that Isamu was a better pilot than he was, or did he say that Basara was a better pilot than he was?

[Old_Nash]

I dunno, man...maybe I'm misremembering, but it seems like Basara piloted a VF-19. Am I wrong?

But Basara don't fly, he plays. The problem is this.

Who saw the Dynamite, are... how shall I say... Not what to think when he actives and fly the valkyrie's mother of Elma.

And Basara sings so annoying when that character that "anime" French of Marathon...what is the name...Yoko, something like that...

Again, I dunno...but when I watched Macross 7, I remember Basara being the pilot of a VF-19. Again, am I misremembering?

EDIT: It's been a while since I've watched it, so if I've got that wrong, please let me know.

First Roy was like Isamu when he was a regular pilot when he gets responsibilities he becomes more adjusted.

Let's see:

-Macross flashback episodes to the U.N. Wars do not show Roy being a reckless showboater who puts people in danger, just a womanizer.

-Macross Zero: Same.

Baseless assumption is baseless!!

Basara flys into danger very skill but you have to push your way through to get there you fly around in space without looking everywhere you collide.

Even deciphering your speech, you make absolutely no sense whatsoever. All I can deduce from this is that you've obviously only seen Macross Plus. Because nothing you're talking about happens in Macross 7 or Macross TV.

Isamu is a maniac but he is a flying genius from what I can tell he seems to predict movement by previsualizing patterns of movement via tactile movement his hands.

That's not Isamu, that's Amuro Ray!

If we're talking dangerous they both are no way they are regular military fighter pilots they don't cover each other of fly in formation.

Actually, Isamu was a regular military pilot until they shuffled him over to the test pilot division. Considering the history of the YF-19's testing, I don't think they intended for him to live through it. Basara on the other hand can be considered a special forces pilot, since he was officially sanctioned in a miilitary operation. As for "flying in formation," he did that with Sound Force, and protected the ENTIRE 7 FLEET!

They are both mavericks they move on their own without help.

WTF are you still talking about top gun for? Top Gun has nothing to do with this whatsoever. But while we're on the topic, Maverick wasn't even half the pilot that Iceman was, he wans't exceptionally skilled, and didn't even understand the concept of "jetwash." Idito.

As for helping or saving that is because of spiritia enemies. even so you can't just enter a battle doing what Basara did it is like singing to a crowd with automatic rifles no matter how you slice things going into a situation without the means to properly incapacitate an opponent can be deadly for both you and the people you save.

It's actually more akin to Neo (The Matrix) going into a crowd with automatic rifles, no danger whatsoever.

You at the very least need to stop the enemy if not kill them. And realisticly without the spiritia plot Basara couldn't hold up against Gavil without back up. Dangerous enemies require help and different types of help in the end even Basara acknowledge the need to have Gamlin at least cover him while he did his thing. i don't even know how we got on this subject anyway wasn't this about whether people liked Basara or not?

Has nothing even to do with Spiritia. Fact is, the U.N. Spacy was "WAAY" outgunned. The only outcome was death or surrender when you fight an enemy that overpowers you to that degree. How much sense does it make to keep throwing rocks at an enemy with tanks? No matter what you do, those rocks will never penetrate the tank armor, stop the treads, or make them stop shooting at you. At that point, singing to them and hoping they like your song enough to stop shooting at you is a much more productive excersize. How did we get on this subject? Your ignorance of what actually happens in the series.

And um...did Max say that Isamu was a better pilot than he was, or did he say that Basara was a better pilot than he was?

he's referring to Isamu's and Basara's primary roles/characteristics and asking which one is more likeable.

I don't think he was asking Max's opinion, either.

In the last OVA, Basara use a VF-19P Excalibur to sing.

Actually, Basara flys and sings, he doesn't play at the same time (until Dynamite anyway). The guitar control scheme is just an alternate "looking" setup, and works in much the same way as the stick & throttle control setup. By the time of Dynamite, he'd been flying so long that he could hit the throttle & stick with his guitar, that alone puts him above most pilots.

c'mon, dude. you're just needlessly picking on him.

we all know what he meant.

if it pleases you, i'll restate his question:

Isamu == military pilot.

Basara = Singer/musician/pilot

Isamu = reckless pilot with a death wish.

Where do you get "likable" out of his post?

Me, I don't like either one. I prefer Sheryl...both as a singer and as a pilot.

bolded for you.

[VF5SS]

Sheryl was kind of a terrible pilot

Hell on an EX-gear operator though

[Gubaba]

Okay...thank you.

But still, Basara is a pilot, is he not?

Way hotter than either Isamu or Basara, though.

not his primary talent/skill, tho.

But is she hotter than Maverick playing hafl naked sweaty all male volleyball?

[Old_Nash]

What did you expect, she had barely entered in the academy.

[Keith]

Actually, considering Akusho was tacked onto City 7 as his own private testground, for his own private fighter, as part of a military sanctioned project (Project M), and private flight instruction (Ray), Basara very much "was" a pilot.

[Gubaba]

sure he is.

not his primary talent/skill, tho.

Says who?

Not Max. Not me.

But is she hotter than Maverick playing hafl naked sweaty all male volleyball?

Unequivocally, YES.

That said, Keith, you can ride my tail anytime.

[VF5SS]

sure he is.

Ahem. Luck is one of Isamu's primary skills.

And punching things without hurting his hand at all.

You broke the conference table, you jerk!

WHO'S a hotheaded jerk, you jerk?!?

I'm not hotheaded.

I'm like the wind, baby.

[treatment]

so, needless pedantry aside that prolly overloaded leadingedge already, let's try to get back his question of who is more likeable between Isamu and Basara.

[Old_Nash]

Isamu is a convinced and Basara is a bossal

Both complement each other.

[Gubaba]

so, needless pedantry aside that prolly overloaded leadingedge already, let's try to get back his question of who is more likeable between Isamu and Basara.

I'd rather hang out with Basara.

The music's better and he wouldn't ask me to eat unripe fruit.

[VF5SS]

And Basara knows how to treat a lady whether she is a space biker or a space vampire.

Still...Lucy's butt is certainly an incentive...

But no. I'll stick with Basara.
