Macross Delta

>It's time to make a new genesis

First for Mirage win.

Mirage will win, win, win

Reina stole him and she didn't even interact with him.

Glass the Zents revenge for Space War 1!

Why did they use this outfit? and why the green hair?

The last we made a new genesis we ended up with Amata and Mikono. Just saying.

ONE POP CONCERT WASN'T ENOUGH

>hayate dies
>this becomes the main triangle

>disgusting abomination ruining a beautiful Windermere pic
Delete Mikumo and shop Heinz instead.

Why is Axia so best?

The 0.89th episode seems so long ago.

I'm a big Sherylfag but I have to admit that Mikumo has the superior body design. Perfectly proportioned plus she is a beauty.

I miss the old good days when Delta was great.

>Filthy cyclops Kieth ruining the OTP.
Delete Kieth from Delta and replace his status as the white knight with Bogue.

Everything was so different back then. Everything was so simple, especially all the bonding that happened on Ragna. Delta honestly needed more episodes.

Most hype song performed by the best Walkure voice.

>disgusting abomination ruining a beautiful Protodevlin pic
DELETE WINDERMERE

>needed more episodes.
No, Delta needed good writers who don't waste time on irrelevant shit and fanservice.

How mad will you be if AradKana happens at the end?

So it's literally official. Hayate and Kaname are either siblings lost at birth or the same person.

Mad? I'll be happy. MesaKana delusional shippers need to fuck off.

Because Kaname waifu is comfy take home waifu.

Perhaps Axia is the best because it is sung by the best idol

Sad day to be a miragefag huh?

For some reason Kaname look prettier here.

Episode 14 for delta is pointless Fanservice. The way for action is longed due and the wait is killing me.

Have we ever seen a Megaroad-class cameo apart from Macross Flashback 2012?

Kinda feels like Axia is one of those Mecha OP's from the mid 2000's.

Feels sort of nostalgic to me.

14 was shit and it set Hayate and Mirage together which makes it worse. She may have a nice pair but she's still boring.

I would actually give them kudos if they killed the male lead it would certainly be different for a Macross series.

and honestly w/ Hayate I wouldn't really mind as he's a bit of a shit male lead for Macross quality.

We see one in Delta in a flashback scene about meeting Windermere.

Does this count?

What is considered a "Macross quality" main character to you? Alto? Hikaru? Shin? Don't make me laugh.

Well to be honest Macross male leads are generally pretty shit with Issamu and Basura being the exceptions.

Thank you for listening to my opinion until the end.

I'm not totally a fan of Macross 7 but I admit Basara is pretty fun(though not relatable at all) and Gamlin is best boy but Isamu is still pretty meh. He's an asshole who's only redeeming quality is yelling "yahoo" when flying. Hayate is at the very least the second best pilot MC in the series. He's not as stupid or insensitive as the previous MCs which is an immediate plus.

Basura...
That's flip for trash/garbage

Is this scene a foreshadowing of the Windermere's Wind Singer?

Is Megaroad-class consider the flag ship in command for war like the battle-class or just another convoy ship whose purpose is for space exploration? I'm pretty sure all ships in the Macross universe has its own purposes.

Megaroad-class is the equivalent of the City ships, it's at the center of it's fleet but needs an escort, they weren't combat capable on their own.

If I remember right, the Megaroad-01 had Britai's flagship from the original series as the command battleship of it's support fleet.

My only issue with Hayate is that he's very generic all around. Even Alto, who I wasn't a big fan of, at least had his specific character quirks that made him interesting. Currently all Hayate has going for him is that his dad is a planet scarring asshole.

Hopefully by the series end he'll have redeemed himself in my eyes but right now he's bottom tier as far as I'm concerned.

Who is that manly man comforting the oh so feminine Sheryl? I simply must know who is the owner of those broad shoulders and masculine arms. Surely it's the greatest man to grace the Macross series if he can be there for Sheryl in her hour of need.

Quirks? That's all you can say with Alto? The guy has no development. He starts off hotheaded and finishes the show, still hotheaded except he has a girlfriend now. Hayate starts out a carefree drifter with no goal or passion in his life. Right now he has a goal, he has someone he cares about, and he's not so carefree anymore.

>I'm a big Sherylfag but I have to admit that Mikumo has the superior body design. Perfectly proportioned plus she is a beauty.

Mikumo is artificial and fake, Sheryl's entire appeal is that she's not only perfect, she's 100% natural

>Quirks?

How else should I say "MC who has gender identity issues"?

Hayate to this point is playing it safe which is the most I can say. He's not to the point where I would hate him (hell I don't hate anyone in the triangle even though I'm a Miragefag, cause how can you hate Freyja despite everything? you honestly just can't).

I'm hoping that by the end of Delta, Hayate will do something that will make him stand out as a character regardless of being in a Macross series. I don't really expect it but hey I can hope that he'll be fleshed out in a meaningful way.

Here's to good storytelling for the remainder of the series until a movie muddles everything up!

Character development doesn't mean changing into a different kind of person

Gender identity issues? I'm not buying it.

Come to think of it he also teases and discourages Freyja in the beginning of the show but now all he does is support her. I guess he is playing it safe since he's just a generally likable guy but even then, still one of the better MCs in Macross.

HayaMira is ded btw lel but seriously no hard feelings about that

You know why i hate about Frejya? She got all the screen time while muh female burgundy pilot gets less screen time than her or none.

Herman and Cassim in the preview

>Mikumo is artificial and fake
BTFO with your theories Berger.

gender identity quirks being to Alto only my friendo.

As for HayaXMira it's not dead till the Protoculture request we clean out the bird cage.

To be fair Mirage doesn't make good use of whatever screen time she gets. She's boring. I remember thinking she was gonna loosen up and perform some beautiful battroid dancing with Hayate. But she hasn't. Oh well.

>mfw episode 20 will have even more sad Freyja doubting herself and everything she believes in

All those info dumping in this episode. Still no one could explain which master race is responsible in building ASS-1

Mikumo is to much semen for demon. She is Sharon Apple made real and that alone is terrifying.

Mikumo is all of them combined into a single force. Minmay, Basara, Sharon Apple and Sheryl.

ASS-1 was a Supervision Army gunship. The Supervision Army were the faction of Zentradi subverted by the Protodevlin and turned against the Protoculture

So it's either a Zentradi designed and built ship, or a minor modification of a Zentradi design.

But Mirage has nothing to show in the story besides the love triangle. She has some issues but these were never addressed or if they will, she will get gud in an episode because they are irrelevant to the story line. Why waste time to someone that their only concern if MC's D when you have a heroine who has real issues to go through?

I was sort of worried but the next episode has the same writer as 16 and the directed for 10 on board for the storyboards so it shouldn't be as bad as 15 and 19.

>episode 10: Messer's death
>episode 16: HayaFre feels

Oh boy. Clench your butt cheeks fellas, we're in for the emotional whooping of our lives

Just the fact that she's fully aware of Freyja's feeling towards him and still thinks it's appropriate to go after him is disgusting. Freyja's parents are dead, she's facing her own people, and she's only got a decade and a half to live and Mirage really wants to pursue a relationship with the guy she likes? Sickening.

THIS. Writers seem to be taking Mirage and Hayate the long route to build a relationship from military buddies to romance. I want to see them together at the end.

Still, I want Freyja to find happiness in Mikumo's ample bossom, her peace music, the love of the whole galaxyand her restored life span

I want an NTR end

Why all this should stop her though? She doesn't need to feel pity for Freyja or even sorry. She takes Freyja's feelings seriously but at the same time she also thinks she wants a chance because why the heck not?

It would be inappropriate for me if Hayate and Freyja were in a relationship and she still tried to get Hayate but since the guy hasn't expressed any romantic feelings towards Freyja yet, then she should also try.

I like HayaFre. But I'm free to see why Mirage thinks she wants to have a chance. There is nothing to stop her. Freyja hasn't confessed either nor Mirage should hide her feelings because of her.

I don't think I will ever like HayaMira because Mirage is just the romantic troupe walking around, she is boring and has no story relevance. I can't feel for someone with no personality that their only trait is to worry how to get MC to notice her first and then return her feelings.

Episode 14, 17 and 19 were fucking shit and a mistake.

Actually, 14 was very good and 17/19 were fine

What was very good about 14? It was useless fanservise episode.

>the long route
>7 episodes left

It's not even only about pity. Hayate and Freyja clearly have a connection together that goes beyond their whole resonance thing. What does Mirage have with him? A high school girl-esque crush on him because they talked about missions a couple times? She doesn't have a reason to pursue him in the first place which is why I believe this triangle is just something that was forced last minute but oh wait, that's just a meme right?

17 was fine. It kept the romance going and we learned more about the bombing of Windermere. Plus fanservice.

A high stakes ticking clock episode about getting a decades out of commission City Ship back into working condition as Walkure try to contain civilian panic is dead cool

Sorry you're bothered by the two minutes of Mirage in a bra or something

We failed user. We can't protect her smile from Kawamori.

If I convince myself that I am watching Idolmaster in space and think of the war drama as a plus, then Delta is actually pretty good. If I tell myself that this is Macross, then Macross Delta is the monument of how low has the industry fallen.

It's because of the whole Hayate - Freyja resonance thing that Mirage still wants to try and looks like he underdog, giving pitiful glances and getting sad in the background. She knows that their relationship is very strong but it still doesn't stop her.

I agree her problems are high-school level and that's why I can't take her seriously as a main character. Nor she has any story relevance.

I think she has a reason. Hayate is a nice dude overall and while they don't have this whole thing as he does with Freyja, Mirage is still a teammate for him. I can see why she likes him and I could see why he would like her back with all this 'I was there to support you in difficult moments' but it's just that at the end of the day. They don't have hardships to overcome both as characters and as a relationship, Mirage has nothing to give in the story as of yet and Hayate has already a better relationship with Freyja.

From a writing's point of view the Hayate/Freyja dynamic is far more interesting and well written. Hayate/Mira is just there.

You do realise the whole problem was created to give us Hayate/Mirage moments, right? It doesn't take a genius to realise the problem could have been solved far easier from the start without this whole scene or even not address it as dramatic.

Is there anywhere to watch out for possible doujin scans (non porn ones included?)

>You do realise the whole problem was created to give us Hayate/Mirage moments, right?
That was a shitty moment, I can't take the scene when Mirage pressed her boobs on Hayate's back while he goes full sky autism as a serious romantic moment.

Just goes to show how relevant she is. She's just eye candy.

>goes full sky autism

You mean, was busy saving everyone's lives, while Mirage had a hard time focusing on saving everyone's lives because "oh no, we're in close physical contact"?

I agree when people say that her liking Hayate ruins her character

Because who needs good characters when you can have fanservice?

Probably because it's not a serious romantic moment? It literally leads to a joke.

Since most are from small groups that no one is going to bother to scan, no.

If it leads to a joke than it's not a good episode. Doesn't progress the story or HayaMira.

Actually it is a good episode.

shhh mikumo is sleeping

I want to snuggle Kunokumo's hair. It's probably really soft and smells nice.

It would probably consume you to refuel her

Freyja confesses that her rune is very sensitive and likes it when you touch/lick it.
Will you suck on it to make her feel good?

...

I will PURGE it.

>So it's either a Zentradi designed and built ship, or a minor modification of a Zentradi design

One thing which i could not understand is is that why Zentradi ships aren't configured for transformation sequence if they know the supervision army is capable of doing eons ago? Besides that if Variable Fighter blueprints came from the supervision army, then why don't zentradi go for variable fighters technology than using humanoid mechs instead?

Transformation wasn't a natural part of Zentradi ship design, it was just human improvisation brought upon by necessity when the Fold engines disintegrating took a bunch of critical systems with them. Same with variable fighters, that was entirely human created technology to deal with the problem of needing a way for humans to fight a race that is 30 feet tall.

I'm pretty sure the first time the Zentradi saw the SDF-1 transformed they were like "what the fuck is this shit, why would they do that to their ship, that configuration makes it worse in about ten different ways compared to it's original form"

Remember, the Zentradi literally didn't even know how to repair the ships and technology they had, let alone create new things.

DELET THIS

So if made a Macross Delta movie adaption, what changes do you think will be made? I'm thinking:

>Roid is made to be more sinister, maybe he kills King Gramia himself
>Mirage is demoted to secondary character and Mikumo is given more screen time
>Freyja and Hayate meet differently, can't think of anything though
>Messer survives and becomes a thing with Kaname

All I can think of for now.

Out of everything, Frontier seemed the least relevant from TV series in Delta and now it's all Frontier's fault.

if Pull that off will she die?

Is sheryl, ranka and alto to be blamed for the recent Var infections?

No, it's not their fault the Vajra left

You just summon Watanabe and remove idols. And more valks, much more screentime for glorious spessplanes.
