Macross Δ Movie 2: Zettai Live!!!

I enjoyed the characters from the Delta TV anime a lot but wasn't too fond of the actual show. This movie concludes a lot of the arcs set up in the anime with an breakneck rollercoaster ride of a movie. The visuals and music are beyond incredible as usual for the series. There's something for all Macross fans here. It's a wonderful celebration of the series as a whole while saying goodbye to the Delta characters we've come to love. I wouldn't consider myself a very emotional person but the final half of the movie had me heaving. I really can't say enough about this ... movie; I don't even write reviews normally but I feel like I had to get my thoughts on it out there.

If you like Macross in any capacity I think it is most definitely worth your time watching this, you won't regret it.

It is a very refreshing movie. The script is quite new for the Macross series, taking into account that the love triangle has a much more complete ending. And the best thing is that the open plots of Frontier and the general twist of the series also have revelations that were much needed.
But it is a somewhat boring, linear movie and the surprise of the plot... I think the direction was bad in general. The script was good. Music was fine, the previus Macross series had much better music in general and this movie had very low quality in that reward. But was fine in ... the end.

To be honest, I am not a huge fan of Macross Delta and you won't be disappointed.


Story
If you watch the TV series in 2016 or the Movie in 2018 It tries to set the story where the Windermere Kingdom and UN Space finally resolved the conflict over Roid Brehm's personal plot for revenge against UN Spacey for blaming them for the use of Dimension Eater on their planet, among other war crimes committed in their home system of Windermere many years ago. Windmere using a Virial Weapon known as Var Syndrome infects humans and Zentradi alike using strange music, causing them to go ... berserk to mind control them to attack anything that movies. Thanks to the Efforts Walküre a tactical sound unit, and their newest recruit who happens to be from Windermere Freyja Wion. Who is in love with a hotshot rookie Valkyre Pilot named Hayate Immelman. Now must face a new Challenge from an Unknown Enemy attacking the homeworld on Windermere. Walküre and Valkyre Pilot Hayate Immelman are put to the test to fight this new enemy force.

I will spoil you if you're a huge Macross fan to know it will have Maximilian Jenius appearing in this movie, It makes references to Macross Plus, and also an easter egg from The Super Dimension Fortress Macross: Flash Back 2012.

The Animation
The style of a mixture of Animation and 3D wasn't perfect but it presented itself well with its measure of style and coloring I liked even the Character Designs and Mecha Designs.

Sound
Does have some of the same songs from the TV series but it also added some new tracks I liked one song from that movie known as Glow in the dark remix version. The cast did a great job in their roles even the sound effects were alright.

Overall

Again, I am not a fan of Macross Delta. I am a fan of the Macross series they attempted not the best Anime but it's a good story, I am not going to spoil the ending but I will say this movie put me in tears as a Macross fan.
