Random techno? Not even sure if that's the right genre to be honest Oh shit and actual English, american accent and all Well this one is a weirdo. Glowing feather wig? I mean its cool though And his opening song being repetitive is not a good start Certainly putting on a show for this whole peace thing Ah, so that's why red head got the focus and none of the other knights did last movie, he matters in this Hahahaha, fancy breakdancing up the cliff-face. you doof Hahaha, the twins have split opinions on whether they should stop Hayate and red-head or keep fighting Into the concert from that is a really awkward choice. Its like they just turned off the lights Again..... NOOOO MORE CGI DANCING As I was going to say, again this would be more interesting if we knew what Windermerian music was like and Freyja was incorporating that given its a peace concert of cultures Freyja's face looks off in her model Why are the Windermerians all in for this if they've been living a nationalistic culture for the last near decade at least which is when it got really bad. They're acting like normal fan audience Hahahahaha his runes glowing ever so slightly Thats whats off about the CGI, they all have the same smile on, and it's not THEM Now thats a proper Freyja face Well his runes are an odd shape huh. Mayor is OLD "bow my rune" well that... kind of works i guess as a alternate cultural reason for bowing Oi hang on. If she use to be a ,,,, oh it was just a video thing not actually performing with Ranka. I was about to say, that should be a much bigger deal if she was THAT big Mikumo's little scowl on being challenged by the kids is great HAHAHAHA ALL THE RUNES LIGHTING UP as the girls confront Hayate if he's with Freyja "remember the people of this planet are different to us" now if only the writers could remember that Okay, here's the opposition to the peace that I was hoping for Father Johann? Lots of emphasis on this being a religious thing now for no hints of it earlier Went to her grandmothers tree, I love it Ah, so this is the revised story for Hayate's past and father, it's better, finding himself in flying when he was lost and being helped by the captain being his subordinate Oh they kept the thing about the letters and the like, that's better WRITE A WINDERMERIAN SONG YOU COWARDS. This is all about her sharing her culture with him, and they wont let her The apples glow? Well that's weird. But I love the idea of each apple being a star in their galaxy Wait, thats a Windermerian song of legend? IT SOUNDS NO DIFFERENT TO ANY OTHER SONG how disappointing is that after the wait, but credit for doing it at all anyway There's a confession huh. Poor Freyja is worried about not being around long enough for him MIKUMO WHAT DID YOU DO. Oh are you just there by chance? Sorry Mikumo Well I may not like the ready to rock song, but at least it's a nice cont... thats a girl?! Oh man, using up his life force to activate the ruins barrier? That fire animation is pretty.... oh it is pretty good but fuck, all the apples of her family Mikumo has always been good at singing in defiance of everything else "that reopened wound looks like a beast" nicely said WHY ARE THERE EGGS THOUGH This is appropriate levels of chaos in both battle and music, I love it Wait did the old dude just get shot down? I like that dude! HOLY SHIT the animation of that nuke rippling through the mountains, I love it "deep learning mode" OH SHIT Siren is another AI? I'm so glad they're revisiting that concept Leaving Windermere? HA The colors in the end of this battle are great. Freyja's red, Hayate's blue, the purple of weapons That modified Macross class does make an incredible visual MAX! HOLY SHIT DUDE. I had a feeling when Mirage wondered if it was someone she obviously knew. Dude has aged That archivist voice is familiar. Oh it's the same Zentradi guy Priests runes are really fucking long. that's just weird so they're still doing the backstory thing of him being special ops huh "he never did anything to harm our people" Ha. his retcon acknowledgement Hayate being brought into flying by his fathers subbordinate at least makes this less contrived that it all matters now with Hayate being involved I like that we get a Windermerian who wanted to avoid the war, as well as learning from humanity There's that "for what do you sing" question again Ah, so this is how the corporation is coming into play again Heimdell, again with the norse stuff huh OI OI OI NO NO NO. DON"T YOU DARE.... okay now I've calmed down a quarter second later, actually suggesting Lady M supported Sharon Apple being made isn't too bad, tiny retcon and doesn't really break things either so its fine why is cybernetic tech in this discussion when he know its in free use in frontier? HA. PINAPPLE SALAD when talking about a mass casualty war Bogue in a delta flight jacket is just fucking weird HAHAHAHA Max going to take them on for training, RIP them Mirages reaction there should have been "we're screwed" that would have been fun slowed down my video just to see what the fuck Max even did, it was so fast Shot Mirage just for good measure, she wasn't even flying for combat i thought Max was going to back that into something important, but he just left it at "you cant be an ace" Weirdly thick and inconsistent lines on this part. Mirage's encouragement here works much better here as a neutral party Mirage firmly taking herself out of the running for the love triangle here, rather than by force, thank fuck. doesn't solve the issues with last movie, but ill take it HAHAHAHA 50 years in a row waiting for Max and Milia to break up in the tabloids, I love it OH WHAT THE FUCK HIS HEAD EXPLODED INTO A GUN. That's just fucking weird..... No Guns Life hahaha Is this the first robots we've seen as b.... oi no. no. I like the commander Arad So even they don't know who or what Lady M even is? That's a lot of authority to a nothing Wait the ship is caught in a Fold fault? That's awkward. Reminds me of Crest Fetus AI (not an AI I know, but still) Oh damn, Siren created five copies to counter each of the Walkure? HAHAHA Dark Walkure, I love it. They have a wicked design too! Long hair Freyja is great Something about this reminds me of the start of Gear G with Jii's song coming in Freyja forcing through the song despite crystallization OH so this is when hayate's trance with her comes up again huh Fucking hell Freyja Siren overloaded on sheer emotions? Freyja falling so ill here gives so much more meaning to the struggle between her and Hayate Mikumo holding it all in again First person view of Mikumo as she goes to freyja. What a moment That's one hell of a fleet organized to take all of this on Scared to sing and scared to die. I like that it gives her some vulnerability to be worried about not being with Hayate instead of just worried about him Oh I like this song. Reminds me of Nier A All the planets from the series being targetted huh The scale of this being a galaxy wide threat works better with Lady M as the motivation, not just Roid OKay this is the one time the franchise would have been... ah he did do the hand thing, nevermind kaname gets some focus here, but the twins are still useless I get the tone they were trying to go for here with the mellow song, but it doesn't *quite* work Wait. Megaroad just magically appears huh. I thought it was stuck Silence during a battle, no singing, feels almost weird. Nice song though Thats a lot of Macross class ships huh Thats a lot of talking when Walkure should already be singing as a counter It feels odd that Hayate was worried about Megarod, Arad about Windermere, and then Hayate's giving a speech about how he'll protect all of the things in Windermere "song and wind together" I like that being their pairing The five Dark Goddesses all worried about Freyja at once, I love it okay i swear if this ends up with her dead.... Ah, there it is Zettai Alive "walkure absolutely has to be the five of us" says one of the two useless ones, though less in this movie being honest, mechanic and tech came in handy at least once oh im so glad this final sequence isnt CGI i liked that song for their determination Eyyyyyy medly time? HELL YES. I hear Borderline Eyyyyyy Max going out to fight. Hell yes. Hahahaha Arad gets force promoted Those glowing scarfs are very Geah The artificial gravity being fucked is probably good for Freyja, she doesn't have to focus on standing up any more because that takes a lot of energy YOU CAN'T TURN LIKE THAT while unanchored in no gravity Singing the Windermere song again huh EYYYYY FINALLY WE HAVE WINDERMERE ALL SINGING. THAT'S ALL I WANTED BEFORE FOR FUCKS SAKE Even red head singing, go him HEHEHEHE the Ai singing too, hell yes, that's so damn cute slightly off model as she helps him break through the barrier THE FUCKING GUN HOLY SHIT I'D COMPLETELY FORGOTTEN THAT THREAT there go all the protostructures again huh (brain farted and made a new word, I like it) Oh thats the necklace with an apple seed in it. RIGHT. Fucking took me long enough to think of it Hayate grabbed the AI core, go him Holy shit look at her. She's almost completely white, you can barely even see the crystal edges any more Actual Baby. Well thats..... weird. Thought it was still unformed fetus NOOOO THEY FUCKING ARE DOING IT YOU SHITS I LOVE YOU BUT FUCK YOU Freyja is the white blossom huh OH man, the weird one liners huh, leaving him with that memory of her This is completely the wrong time to complain about it but I have Mikumo's outfit Sorry Delta, nothing compares to the Utawaremono kiss Dont you fuckingdare get me to cry Delta for fucks sake.... oh man I'm on the egde SINGING BABY IS FUCKING CREEPY AND YOU CANNOT CONVINCE ME OTHERWISE really leaving us on that moment huh. Nothing else would work, but the WEIGHT of it... what a moment OH man, post-credits.... OH LOOK AT ALL THE TREES GROWING SO MANY YEARS LATER Teaching the child the power of one off sayings huh Why does that give me Kyousougiga vibes. WHY DOES THAT MAKE ME EMOTIONAL WHAT THE FUCK BRAIN
