I still don't get why Ranka gets shit on so much. Her only crime was not being Sheryl, but outside of smuggling in Ai-chan I was pretty fine with her.

She tries to take Alto away from the Galactic Singer. Of course she is going to get tons of L lol.^_^

The problem is Alto is not worthy of such great waifu.T_T...... The hell, most of the MC in Macross does not deserve the superior waifu. Especially the Floating wind of the ship Hayate lol.

Why can't they give us a great husbando like Reinhard in Macross series.T_T

Reinhard is too much man for Macross. Sheryl is too much woman for Macross though. I still want her to pop up in delta. I don't care why, just show up. I honestly don't think Ranka stood a chance in her triangle though. Alto new he loved Sheryl early on. Ranka just well, she was their little sister. They both loved her just not romantically.
 
Seto is solid and doesn't wild guess or conjecture often (but he has at times.)

here's his direct reference:

In case anyone is wondering
"What is a Cour?"

Welp, but still I'm guessing the movie they planned would have still covered what we're seeing albeit tighter. The only real time filler is the music, in my opinion.
 
So 3 episodes left - is it even possible to wrap things up with this much time remaining? Between a wrap up movie and a second season I'm guessing a movie is more likely.

I'd honestly prefer a second season. I don't exactly hate most of the characters, most of the cast just hasn't had the much time to grow convincingly or just be people. They've just started to act like comrades and the show's damn near done.

Dammit. Actually, most if not all Admiral from LoGH is manlier vs Hayate and it is sad.T_T

Having Oberstein for Macross MC will be hilarious lol.

And yeah, except for maybe the original Macross, the triangle had never been balanced.TT

We need a new Macross that had both girls being super waifu so the trianglr can be balanced lol.

Regarding OG Macross I'm so biased towards Misa. Minmay was a good woman though, but she wasn't good for Hikaru as he got older. Just like how Hikaru wasn't up to snuff for Misa till he got older. Like if Hikaru never joined the military then it would've worked, but what would his life even have been like?

Same here, Frontier did a lot with its 25 eps and Delta seems to just lazily coast in its run.

I can see where u come from.^_^ Minmay is all about fun and exciting days but sadly RL is not all about that.So Hikaru who had been maturing, end up liking Misa. But at least those make both Misa and Minmay a damn good waifu and none of them are getting the short hand of the stick.

Compared this to Sheryl who is soooo much superior vs Ranka.
Or FreFre who had ten times more spotlight vs MiraMira. (KanaKana and KumoKumo is still better though.^_^)

The balance is just not there.T_T

...........can't we had reverse triangle where the MC of Macross is the Idol and the other two sides is husbando lol? I can't imagine the backlash lol.^_^

I still consider Mira Mira the better waifu, it just takes a lot of time to open her up but the foundation for a good relationship actually is there. She seems like a sweet woman when she remembers that she's what? 16 years old? She's like a kid trying to play an adult. She's doing a good job but sometimes the veneer cracks with her and she lets that big ass guard down. The thing with her is that she's hyper inexperienced with that kind of shit and she's up against a middled aged woman that's trying to be married off all the time. She's like Mylene a little bit, only exception is that Freyja ran away from it. Mirage has had a few drinks with people, but romance is not her thing so she doesn't know how to respond to it, she's just not there instinctively and knowing her she'd be too embarrassed to buy a book about it. But even Freyja is good. She's just too short term and in the long run would be tragic. With Ranka Alto never loved her that way. As I said little sister. Sheryl is well? Fucking Sheryl, you don't compete with that. She'd even beat out Walkure on that front. Wasn't the reverse triangle in Macross 7 where she's kind of with Gamlin?
 
i think Lady M is Iijima.

hopefully she won't go Full Frontal =P

Frontier had multiple episodes with badass mecha combat. Delta has had maybe half an episode total.

The debut of the Quarter, the last two episodes rank amongst the best in the entire series for that stuff.

Delta is just... The Windermere literally fight off the NUNS with 4 Valkyries it feels like.

Delta ain't got shit on the badassery of Frontier. I think it was the end of ep 6 with Macross Quarter fighting off the Vajra with Infinite 7 in the background. I remember that being hype as fuck. Delta has had I think 2 moments coming close to that, but at the same time Frontier did everything on a grander scale. I will say Delta's ep 13 was pretty damn good though. So far with Delta Messer's death, Hayate going var and the Elysion Adama Maneuver are the shows best moments that I can remember.
 
Wow death flags for EVERYONE. Walkure took a huge L this episode.

RIP RIP RIP.

Now if they go through with killing them all and final boss, we'll see.
 
Can we just get sms to fold in and end this charade, and by sms I mean isamu dyson and his kawaikochan the vf-19 advance. Im pretty sure with a full payload he can own the wyndemere millitary on his own. Alto and the rest could show up too, to sit and watch.

I find it fucking hilarious that Delta Platoon ain't got shit on SMS. Maybe if Arad named attacks after Sheryl songs they'd stand a chance.

Dead Flag everywhere indeed.

FreFre aging fast.
Kumokumo becoming final boss
MakiMaki is getting shot.T_T

But i do had a feeling that they won't kill anyone here.T_T Especially waifu. Don't want to miss all that waifu money lol.
 
Roid looks like Sharon Apple's A.I. engineer/director. (actually it's just the glasses, long hair)

i call Mikumo Sharon Apple part II. she'll be the semi big boss =)
i knew it! just kidding! but it was obvious right at the start of the series that she wasn't normal.... she was so so overpowering the first episode.

my call:
Maki
is going to make it
Frejya
will be Sheryl on her death bed with no cure
Mirage
will end up with Hayate
Mikumo
will pull a Sarah and Kadun everyone, Lady-M will come to the rescue,
Keith
will turn Britai with that eye patch
Bogue
will be alive
 
1.So they spend 3 episodes to just let Roid capture Mikumo then retreat, that just wasting time.

2.Not sure what's the point suddenly adding subplot(like Mirage and Hermann's rival) when there is only 2 episodes left, if they want to do this, they should do it in mid season, and now it's too late, it will be so rushed.

Mirage
will end up with Hayate

Japanese Mirage fans are the biggest group that against this now, because they hate Hayate.
 
Hrmm, a lot of stuff happening now that really should have happened earlier. The possible Mirage-Hermann rivalry, Mikumo actually ending up as the secret weapon for the other side (although didn't the same thing happen with Ranka?), and Arad styling on Bogue, showing that he's actually a competent pilot when he's not flying off-screen. I'm not too miffed that Chaos lost, again, but I had thought this would have been the final operation instead of the penultimate one.

I at least hope Freyja ends up fine.
 
It is indeed writer's fault, but you can't blame them for being mad, this writer is fucking lazy.
Makes sense. There's a lot of stuff they could've done with Mirage that they never bothered to do, it took them too long for her to become an entertaining character. When she acted like she had no spine I was just all too annoyed with the whole thing.
 
Mirage is fine it's like, whatever, she is what she is. Like, people want something that's obviously never going to happen and doesn't even really need to.

Dunno, just seems like people have latched onto this character for no real reason and cried because she won't change.

Basara is perfect just the way he is.
He's a demented space hippy, but I'm perfectly fine with him since he's supposed to stay the same and everybody else is just supposed to grow to tolerate him. Real main characters are Gamlin, Max and Miria any way.
Why did they have to remove the leg units of that VF-22? I'd love to see that bad boy in action again. It was kind of ok. Mikumo is Sharon Apple in control of a giant dubstep ruin. Mirage still really can't fly minus that moment she tag teamed with Hayate. Freyja getting old.

They just want her development, aka growth, but it never happened.
 
Still can't believe we're at episode 24 with barely any large scale battle to speak of, a completely botched love triangle, more questions than answers about some core elements of the story, and just starting a brand new plot development (Mikumo) when there's basically 1 big 2-parter episode left to wrap things up...

Delta has been a major disappointment for me, outside of Mirage (way under developped) and the Mech design...

Hoping for a slightly redeeming finale...

They should just do a movie and make Mirage and Freyja the ship.
 
And did it posted here?
The original Mirage in Kawamori's memos was supposed to be an ace just like Messer, but it was hard to make her distinct from Messer so they made her only slightly better than Hayate
I mean if they don't want to write her growth subplot, this change is a huge mistake.
 
good news for those interested:

hi-metal R Milia Super VF-1J will be p-bandai exclusive which is normally bad for gundam but for Macross it's beneficial because there's no set limit of units you can order. unlike if it was retail, crap would be so limited and sold out in 1 minute...

with web orders it's virtually unlimited:

the bad news is you'll have to go through nippon yasan or a middleman w/ mark up to get an order.

but it'll be an easy pre-order:

pre-orders start 9/16 16:00JST

SMS shows up in the final episode to put down Windermere like the punks they are. Chaos/Walkure get BTFO.
Ozma: "You guys couldn't handle these fucking singing elves? Seriously? Who the fuck trained you? Alto, Michael, Luca we out of here, get in formation Totsugeki love heart. Issamu for the love of god stop hitting on Walkure!!"
Issamu: "I do what I want, I'll be at the Quarter two weeks from now."
 
Didn't get around to watching the past two episodes, so I watched them back-to-back today. I'm inclined to agree that the sort of development involving interaction between Mikumo and the rest of Walkure in a scene as simple as having lunch with Makina and Reina was the sort of thing that was long overdue, and by all means should have been factored in during the first half of the series, not the second half during the final several episodes. And with Makina getting shot while protecting Freyja, I can only wonder why there were never more safeguards in place for the singers from the beginning of the series. Between the pilots of Delta Squadron often being too busy keeping the Aerial Knights at bay to stay focused on Walkure at all times, and the fact that those barriers at their command can't shield from everything without fail, I question why there was never anyone on the ground within Delta specifically assigned to preventing incidents such as that, ideally with the same level of mobility granted to Walkure themselves.

Either way, as the series reaches its end, I can't help but feel that it seems like something's missing with it, especially when one compares the pacing and developments from when Frontier aired. It's already been stated plenty of times, by myself included, how badly they've dropped the ball on the love triangle this time around (hell, watching the most recent Gundam series in Iron Blooded Orphans, even the lead for that show actually kissed the girl who liked him long before we got to it happening for either choice here, which should say enough given the lack of focus on romance in that franchise compared to Macross). If anything, I would even say that the war with Windermere in fact should have only covered the first thirteen episodes, with the second half giving way to a much bigger threat and the introduction of new characters among the protagonists and antagonists alike.
