Ranka may be cowardly. But Sheryl is just annoying.
And her acting this way is really excusable considering her past.

Also the main character is really endearing and not annoying in a lot of ways.

Old avatar and sig retired for now.

It's also great to hear Tomoya from Clannad, since the series is over now I sure do miss him. Macross Frontier is just lovely. When Ranka sang on the roof, beautiful.

Oh for fuck's sake, so this is just a remake then? Is it so hard to just come up with a new story instead of remaking everything in sight you fucking incompetent asswipes of Japanese TV anime? And they cant even remake a simple damn setpiece properly, whereas the original has two characters stuck in an enclosed space and pushes them together at a deliberate pace, this shitty ADD show has THREE people stuck together and strips a dumb bitch's clothes off and rescues them in five minutes. Fucking LAME beyond belief.

I suppose Ranka is not human.....

If I remember well, she said something like that before....

And her lost memories....

Could the aliens be after her?


She is 1/4 Zentradi.


Yeah but really since Zentradi have been into human society for many years she can't be the only one so what so special about her? I imagine that they would be more people in those ships with mixed human and zentradi blood and the monsters didn't seem to go after them.
Except if am wrong of some reason having zentradi and human blood is a rare thing. If that is true then it should explain why is a rare thing.
They also killed her family so where they after her from birth or was her whole family that attracts those monsters?

Lol at the food looking like breast. And Sheryl Nome's line about him basically masturbate thinking at her was lol. I love the fact that she isn't some little miss sweet and innocent.
Also liked how he replied to the pervert comment and didn't just take it like most anime guys do.

I was a quite good episode, but what I don't really understand is why they have to copy all things from the Macross series. I mean, come on you don't have to take everything, like now. . . a Miss Macross contest?


They are still in the same universe you know. It's not a re-imagination of the franchise, it's a sequel. So there is nothing bad about it. It's logical to assume it became kind of a tradition having that contest like we have contest in our world that go for year and years.

Actually the fact that their little enclosure time was completely different shows that it isn't a remake. Just because they put them in that position for a little it doesn't mean they where trying to do the same thing. It looked to me more like they did it as a homage and not because they wanted to make the same thing or make it a big deal of the plot. That's why they kept it so small and insignificant.

The more I see this the more it reminds me of Macross O_o

The way everything is going is just too damn similar. Still, Im enjoying it, it's like watching a lot of references in a different version of it.

Ranka had it pretty hard, I have bad memory so its sometimes a good thing.

Behold of my awesomeness~

Arrrggg.
I was going "NO NO NO NO NO DAMNIT NO" the moment I saw that shelter.

...I'm not liking any of these characters.
Except Ranka.
But that's largely because that Nyan Nyan song was funny in the first episode.

That explosive slap xD By the way, everybody jumped inside the shelter despite the fact that there was a ladder haha. Panic, I guess.

Sheryl told Alto not to distribute "optical data" via the net...does it mean that in 2059 it's possible to "upload" your memories to the net?? Or is it just messed up translation and she just told him to forget...

Grace had some sort of "implant" that helped her access the ship network and find Sheryl? Oh, and she lost her earring even before getting into the shelter. Now that I checked it, she lost it during the first concert.

Ranka's song was lovely indeed. The part with amnesia was a bit harsh for her...so she remembers the flashback but doesn't realize who was killed (her family)?

P.S. Michael played by Hiroshi Kamiya is a pleasant surprise. By the way, he has round ears in the show (or at least not as pointy), but pointy (Zolan) ones in the OP

P.P.S. What's with that funeral at the bottom of the lake?

P.P.S. I wonder how did Ozma, Michael and Luca manage to launch if apparently there was no permission from the president (so now we have presidents and not mayors, huh)

So we have consistent Macross trends of love triangles, the government being an absolute hinderance, and most likely something about the magical powers of music. Regarding Sheryl and Ranka,
