Kidnapped by aliens. Spared the probe.

After my long hiatus am back. Just watch Macross Frontier, all I gotta say fantastic, fucking animation for a TV series. Seriously, especially the 3D. If you watched a lot of anime with 3D in it you notice that the 3D and the 2D are awkward when edited togather. The anime following its own style while the 3D being stiff.

Well in Macross F, forget it. The 3D is so well down and storyboarded togather that the 2D style for the action flows right into the 3D animation.

Well, I can't really kiss ass until I see epi 2 and judge how consistant will the animation quality be.

But if you want to know the story then its a revamp of the original Macross but in the future following the backstory of the other Macross series. You got old (and I'll shall use the american names cuz am a bastard and will piss off a lot of real Macross fans) Ricky Hunter get his butt into a Veritech to save Minmay. The end credits reinforce with modernise versions (although a bit more sombre) of the good old classic: Do you remember love? (AI - OBOETE IMASU KA). 

Macross F is considered the Official Sequel to the original Macross.


Ok now the mecha!! The baddies (incredibly tough bastards and the veritechs):











Lyn Minmay: (Ranka Lee or Lanka works at a restaurant)




Rick Hunter: (Saotome Alto, he flies around as a flying troupe using a personal jetpack and wings)




The famous nude scene from the 1st Macross is ready out of the way!



And if you look hard you'll find old Roy Focker. If anyone notice the story follows the new trend, for this year, of an older guy falling in love with a younger (dare I say loli) girl.
