BTW, it's Kumo-Kumo, not Muko-Muko.

Yet I found myself doing this a few times.

I'm going with this one after a quick-viewing.

What is this "mecha action" you speak of? :p In Delta?

Yeah, this became a vehicle for Walkure instead of Valkyries. I mean I have all their magazines and music they've released, so on that front Macross D has been successful. However, as a show itself not so much. Anyway, the worst I hate about this is the wasted love triangle on poor Mirage as I felt she should be standing on her own two feet. Instead she is pining over Hayate. At this point Freya has more spirit or even Ranka, than her. Ah, well almost over now...

All right! In the interest of honesty and in acknowledgement of the show's horrendous track record, I'm not going to pretend I have any anticipation for this new episode... so, instead, we'll settle in for another date with Delta Disappointment and spend 24 minutes wishing we were watching something else.

This was actually a mild improvement over the shoddy mess that was 19 and 20, but it still feels like Macross Delta's producers are desperately rummaging around in the show's toybox for something to show us.

Trying to humanize Mikumo NOW is a waste of time. It should've been done half a series ago, and falls flat now that she's Ms. McGuffin.

So I'm going to have to tender a negative vote again, but with less venom this time.

I wouldn't say wasted as much as a "Forced" love triangle.. there is essentially no chemistry between these characters. Frankly I'd rather see something happen between Boobs & Moody at this point! (aka Makina & Reina) LOL

My only hope is that this will have an epic end with Elysion vs SV, but that hope is just fading fast right now. Whatever you might want to say about Macross F, episode 25 was pretty good, even with some reused animation, the Galaxy vs Frontier fight was pretty decent. They even threw in some ghosts for flavoring... I just don't see an epic fight with Elysion, just as well I suppose, even if there was one, there has been no build up at all, it'll feel flat, but on the plus side, no more Ernie. And dammit, I'm still waiting for Bert.

Damn near EVERYBODY falls "flat" next to those two, though.

Ba-dum tish.

Ok, now that I think about it (that's quick-viewing for ya)

I'll probably tender a thumbs down when I do my sit-down viewing.

I'm really not sure what I just watched... Maybe I'll be merely disapointed when subs come out..... My instincts tell me my blood will boil. Nothing the protagonists did had any place this late and in this situation.

Just watched in on YT withOUT subs. Obviously I don't speak it but I guess the MDE emphasis has been intended to be references, in MD's story, to Little Boy & Big Boy's detonations in WWII?

That's too bad. I guess that means no Bogue or Hermann flashback episodes.

Wouldn't make a difference at this point.

Then that would have been made Keith even more of a hypocrite since he was gonna lob off Freyja's head back in episode 7 or 8.
