Re: Macross II, Macross Plus, Macross 7, Macross Frontier, & Macross Delta to get released in America!

Macross 7 has always been one of those interesting curiosities for me. It’s a big commitment though.

Re: Macross II, Macross Plus, Macross Frontier, & Macross Delta to get released in America!

Unfortunately, I've heard talk that there's still rights issues with DYRL in Japan, so that might not be resolved for a while.

But Frontier and Delta finally coming here is nice. I've also mentioned in here a few times that I'm one of maybe 5 fans of Macross II. :lol:

Re: Flying Phantom Ship BD from Discotek

Skaro Hunting Society fansubbed this a few years ago with your help, right? It's funny how Discotek has licensed so many that Skaro fansubbed in the past.

Re: Manga Release News

Okazaki is one of my faves now, so I'm looking forward to River's Edge. I took out the 2 Vertical books from my local library during the height of the pandemic lockdown. The librarian who handed me the books complimented my good taste. So she has quite an underrated following! Apparently Pink and He...

Re: The old-school anime DVD/BD news thread.

A lot of long older shows are a big time commitment. I usually buy them and stash them because many of the old anime I want tend to go OOP quickly, never to be reprinted again. Sentai's Ideon is one example--I'm glad I bought it just when Amazon was dropping the price for it, before it went out of p...

Oh, I don't think I heard the QC issues are too bad, but the materials used for the transfer were touch and go, so a new HD master was needed

Re: Which Western novel has the most anime adaptations?

Tough one. I can only think of Anne of Green Gables as being a novel popular enough in Japan to warrant several adaptations

Neat. There’s a lot of stuff in Panda go Panda that was reused in Ponyo, I think

Re: What are you Watching?

About halfway through Daimos. It really is a pretty good show! This is a later days super robot era show so the industry transition to the Gundam era is already hinted here (Zambot 3 also being another precursor super robot show). The enemy side (Barmanians) seem to get much more screen focus than t...
