abbadon Posted December 31, 2015 Share Posted December 31, 2015 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. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

antibiotictab Posted December 31, 2015 Share Posted December 31, 2015 This is my first eperience of the Delta. 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. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedWolf Posted December 31, 2015 Share Posted December 31, 2015 Episode 1 Frejya is genki ruuning away from marriage and wanting to sing. Hayate is lazy but talented. Mirage reminds me of Gamlin. After a long time a Thurvel-Salan Class Battleship. Zentradi upgrades are sick especially the Regult missile rack one. Var syndrome is triggered by music making Zentradi go berserk like the Song of Death. Wulkure counteract these with their own song. Unnamed old knight among Aerial Knights. Knights give me a Marduk vibe attacking NUNS and Wulkure. The type we are the chosen race. Freyja may have missed the auditions on the wrong planet but she proves herself singing on the battlefield. Girl would make Basara proud. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JB0 Posted December 31, 2015 Share Posted December 31, 2015 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.

Marzan Posted December 31, 2015 Share Posted December 31, 2015 Stowaways? Singing? Idols? Regults? Cities being flattened within the first 15 minutes? Yup, it's a Macross. With some Sailor Moon mixed in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marzan Posted December 31, 2015 Share Posted December 31, 2015 (edited) Very reminiscent of the first Frontier episode. Like the podcast crew had said though, it's all over the place. It seemed they felt that all the characters had to be introduced in one go. So there's very little time to get to know them. The MC seems to be your typical genki underdog girl that everyone can get behind off. From Valkure, I think Mikumo is going to be fan favorite, but I get the feeling she might not be part of the main love triangle. I was a tad underwhelmed by the CGI-animation. It doesn't feel as mind blowing as Frontier was when it came out 8 years ago. And yeah, the magical girls aspect to the idols is going to create a lot of debate around here. A LOT Edited December 31, 2015 by Marzan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CRYO Posted December 31, 2015 Share Posted December 31, 2015 (edited) Wow, love this Mission 0.89 And the SV 262 really showed much more attractive with their add-ons than the VF31 Edited December 31, 2015 by CRYO Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedWolf Posted December 31, 2015 Share Posted December 31, 2015 (edited) Okay watching it again. Prologue starts explaining emigration fleets ,particularly Ragna and Windemere, encounter alien life. Delta Squadron is attached to the Ragna fleet. Freyja is likely the same race as the Aerial Knights due to her glowing hair thingy. I think the Windimere fleet may have went native and uplifted the local race. Wulkure and Delta Squadron to me run on the Basara-Gamlin school of pacifist combat with Alto's flare. First time we see heavy cargo transport ships. This is how Bilrer makes most of his money. The classic Thurvel-Salan returns. Fangasms from our resident mech head girl on Regults. My opinion they are still death traps. Okay getting better with the upgrades. Queadlunn- Rau Local Cheyenne destroids. Local labor mech. Could be Destroid Work based. Once it was just Speaker Pods now it is new fangled boomerang drones. Oh now that is plain cheating. Not as good as X-9 Ghost lineage.

JB0 Posted December 31, 2015 Share Posted December 31, 2015 We explained the meaning of that in the last podcast ;-pWhile 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. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scyla Posted December 31, 2015 Share Posted December 31, 2015 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. 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.

Laundro Posted December 31, 2015 Share Posted December 31, 2015 Watched it, only thing i have to say is im not feeling this at all. Macross F had me excited, this... nope. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valkyrie addict Posted December 31, 2015 Share Posted December 31, 2015 (edited) 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 Edited December 31, 2015 by Valkyrie addict Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just thought it was funny as heck.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.

JetJockey Posted December 31, 2015 Share Posted December 31, 2015 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.

Vepariga Posted December 31, 2015 Share Posted December 31, 2015 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 oh and happy new year! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IXTL Posted December 31, 2015 Share Posted December 31, 2015 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. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gerli Posted December 31, 2015 Share Posted December 31, 2015 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! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zinjo Posted December 31, 2015 Share Posted December 31, 2015 (edited) Those Regult and Glaug upgrades are gonna make RT fanboys fill their shorts!! Well with the known information now, we can safely say MII and M7 have been merged in the premise. Though, if MF was an ode to SDFM and M-Plus fans, this on initial appearance, will be an ode to M7 fans, but time will tell. 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.
