The Colony Fleet Macross Frontierfalls under attack by unknown attackers!!!
Welcome to my first episode review! Well, here goes!
Macross is a new series to me so I won’t profess to know anything about the universe. I picked this up cause it looked interesting ^^. This latest installment in the series boasts some nice 3D graphics and some cool action. Well, don’t just listen (or rather read….) to me babble, see for yourself…..
For those of you who like space action in the form of Stellvia style you might want to try this. Macross fans probably don’t need any convincing.
The story begins a brief introduction of the characters. I’ll let pictures do the talking.
is it edible?…..
Another Lacus clone?
Wouldn’t you love to know what they are watching?
“I’m too cool to be in this show…”
Of course, the peace and tranquility is soon disrupted by unknown attackers…
Cool radar…
“Kira Yamato! Strike Launching!”…not
And as usual, your standard generic grunt soldier stands no chance against the incoming onslaught. So they send out the big guns, the variable fighters, which are also more or less the focal point of the story in terms of mecha.
Before…
After…!
“Eat lead alien scum!”
However, despite their efforts, the attacking force manages to break past the defense line and break into the colony and all hell breaks loose.
“Muahahahaha!”
Our heroine(?) Lanka (the green haired girl) gets into a sticky situation with the big bad robot. Our hero, being the man that he is, jumps into an abandoned variable fighter and challenges the invader.
“Aaaah!! Save me!”
“I’m coming my dear!”
“Eat more lead alien scum!!!”
[Conclusion]
All in all a good episode, although they left the conclusion of the battle to the next episode. But this episode leaves alot to speculate about. Chances are the boys will be involved in this as future pilots. The pop star will obviously be there somehow as character development or just eye candy though the latter is unlikely.
Also, does anyone notice how similiar this episode is to Gundam SEED?
Peaceful space colony—>gets attacked—>innocent boy gets involved—> said boy jumps into nearby mecha and proceeds to kick ass…..
or maybe I’m just thinking too much…
And here’s some pics to end a really long first post.
“Why is a guy undressing in front of me?”
“Now that you have seen me naked…You’ll have to marry me…”
“Yes! Yes! I’ll do it! I’m actually a 65 year old with extreme cosmetic surgery!”
