Nice! Spring it is.

Looking forward to the rest of the series.

Loved it! I'm sure they will polish up the animation and the sound mix. But I liked it over all.

This girl has a little strong accent...
Walküre ≒ The "Var" Syndrome" & "cure"?
Sailor Moon and PreCure fans will love this anime.
Someone will decrypt the staffs' names written in Zentradie language.
Oh, they didn't use the motion capture technology...

It starts from April 2016.
I am looking foward to it.

So for those of us not in the know (namely me), was this the first episode, then? A MFrontier Deculture Edition Episode 1-type thing, maybe?

Yeah, preview version of the first episode. Apparently, it carries the episode number of 0.89.

Unless you are in the U.K, we are not worthy apparently.

Only in Japan, as usual? :(

I re-watched the video.

Stowaways? Singing? Idols? Regults? Cities being flattened within the first 15 minutes? Yup, it's a Macross. With some Sailor Moon mixed in.

Yeah, I hope that sequence is first episode only fan service; hope it's not an every episode thing.

Regult-CHANs, even!

Not lyin', I laughed at that.

...

Almost as much as I laughed at the voice cast. Credits are rollin' along, we get to the voice cast, and suddenly THIS happens:

Wow, love this Mission 0.89 :)

And the SV 262 really showed much more attractive with their add-ons than the VF31

First time we see heavy cargo transport ships. This is how Bilrer makes most of his money.

Fangasms from our resident mech head girl on Regults. My opinion they are still death traps.

Local Cheyenne destroids.

Once it was just Speaker Pods now it is new fangled boomerang drones.

We explained the meaning of that in the last podcast ;-p

While I obviously did go in blind(no offense to you guys, pr'ly gonna grab the recording in a little while and listen to your son-err, thoughts), I didn't really think it was a mystery for the ages. I just thought it was funny as heck.

I really liked it. Dr. Chiba would be proud. Sadly no sweet J-Rock music. I hope they use the remaining time till the show (hopefully the first of several season) starts to work on the CG of the mecha. They could use some polish.

Other than that I'm satisfied but I like Macross 7 the most. Take from that what you will. :D

Love the new Valkyries. If the DX toys are done well they should offer a lot of play value and variability so that you don't feel too bad about buying multiples. Not too keen on the head turret of the Shinigami VF-31 looks too smooth. Almost like the head turret of the RVF-25 took to an extreme. I have to wait and see a detailed render or the toy to finally decide that. Probably my least favorite design after the VF-4G.

I'm still hyped. :)

Nice episode, nothing mind blowing for me at the moment. Interesting concept for the show, will wait for subs to get more context and give a better opinion.

Nice dogfight action, too short tough,

That lead Walkurie is badass

Of course, that's only to be expected :-)

But the gimmick to the names is related to two new in-university SE languages and some decoder cards that were distributed at the theatrical screening so there's a bit of a story behind them, that's all.

Well I'm not negative about it. But not really positive either. I was whistling some of that last song after watching it. But from what I saw it's not one of my favorite first episodes of a Macross series. But I'll give it another chance when it's finished with the opening titles.

Posted

Just finished watching it, I really liked it. Good flow,giving us a taste of everything to come for a first episode. Loved the Zentradi attack, something just fills me with joy seeing them fight again. its how its supposed to be. The new Valks are great,the speed of the combat is gonna be amazing in future episodes.

Walkure seem fun so far, I like them alot better than Sheyrl and Ranka.

Good start to the new series :D oh and happy new year!

Posted

Overall, I was surprised how much I liked it.

The Walkure parts I'm not too keen on but I look forward to seeing more Aerial Knights vs Delta Squadron.

Posted

It's good!

I mean... yeah all the "magic" and "transformation" and the cutenes aside... but the battle over the city was Amazing! The Drone/Funel things too!

Those Regult and Glaug upgrades are gonna make RT fanboys fill their shorts!!

Love the images of the container ships and the dock. It may not be very relevant to the overall plot, but it sets up the environment of a colony world very well.

Close, but not quite. We translated Kawamori's comments on which series he is trying to blend last episode of SpeakerPODcast ;-)
