| omg there's males instant ptw+ never heard of minori suzuki. this will be interesting |
| i hope this will be more action pack than Macross Frontier was those Variable Fighters looks cool though lets see if they can top the action of Macross Zero |
| I hope they make the music and OST aspect of the show look good. Been awhile since I've seen Macross Frontier but I have good hopes for this show. |
 |
| Looks interesting. I like the art. |

| inb4 there will be love triangle again, like always on a Macross series, then when a couple is decided one of them will disappear for unknown reason, Macross is always a massive cock block when it comes to romance |
ios said: Yeah...about that:inb4 there will be love triangle again, like always on a Macross series, then when a couple is decided one of them will disappear for unknown reason, Macross is always a massive cock block when it comes to romance "Kawamori pointed out that the delta symbol in the logo is made of triangular symbols, to symbolize the three main thematic elements of Macross: music, a love triangle, and transforming fighter planes. However, he noted that the two symbols are split, and explained that this is indicative that the three elements will not come together as expected in the new story."

| If I'm being one hundred percent perfectly honest the trailer and key visual doesn't inspire much confidence. The CGI looks like it could actually be a downgrade from Frontier and I'm not so sure the whole male and female Valkyrie pilot/possible idol team doesn't come across as well....potentially really really dumb. Were it not for the Regults and Valkyrie's I could have just as easily sworn I was watching the trailer for another new Aquarion the way that it looked. |

| That PV looks just fine, daaaang, instant ptw. |
| Not impressed with everything revealed now....and Macross is one of my favorite animes. And I see they made the female lead singer childish...again. |
 |
| please be better than Macross Frontier :c it looks quite similar, i'm already seeing Ranka 2.0 mayukachan said: omg there's males well there was a few males in Macross Frontier too except no one ever talks about them (rightfully so) since they are some of the shittiest characters ever |

| I'm really excited about this. There's something about the Macross franchise I love even when it's frustrating (the love triangles). Probably because it unites two things I love (music and mecha). Idol units, huh? That will be something. |

| hypeeee can't wait for more idols and cheesy love triangles |
 |
| wow okay i knew it was going to be bad already, but this just looks so gay, it makes LGBT look like kiddy shit 1 ep, then drop because macross will never get any better like stage 4 cancer no more hope for macross ,,|,, |

| FUCK YA! anime is saved! :D lol |
| OMG! that pink haired girl is <3 More Macross is welcome. I bet that oranged haired girl is Ranka Lee v.2 |
| Do you play Azure Lane? Then please join my fanclub https://myanimelist.net/clubs.php?cid=74907 |
| I'm happy for more Macross. I wish there was only one or two singers though. I'm not a fan of big idol groups. |
| Well, always nice to see more macross, I'm a big fan, but frankly, I don't have high hopes, idk. Well, nothing really to judge on but the covers aren't very encouraging. I highly doubt they will ever get close to original macross/dyrl level again, but maybe we can get something on the level of F, hopefully. |
 |
| I have been watching Macross Frontier, as far as visuals go the CGI looks to be about on par which is fine but the character detail/movements seem much improved (to be honest they are really bad in Frontier). I will watch. |
| Very interesting, will be Macross Δ at least on the level of Macross F? I am a little worried about plot, i think show will not turned into a even music video, at the expense of the plot. |
stand said: i know there were but they never got equal spotlight with the girls.mayukachan said: omg there's males well there was a few males in Macross Frontier too except no one ever talks about them (rightfully so) since they are some of the shittiest characters ever i especially like the ponytail guy, tho. i've only read the shoujo manga adaptation so idk how shitty he actuall is Zarnaav said: you're speaking if it's a bad thing? it looks like the typical mecha male cast. like 00 or valvrave.1st cover makes this look likes is going to be a shoujo anime with reverse harem (it needed 1 girl there to make it look like isn't going to be a shounen ai/yaoi) |
| I hope this'll be a love nonagon. |
Zarnaav said: so does the same apply to the female side? looks like a yuri, right?mayukachan said: you're speaking if it's a bad thing? it looks like the typical mecha male cast. like 00 or valvrave. Not really , I was just point that . |
mayukachan said: They held auditions, so it's quite possible that she's a new face.never heard of minori suzuki. this will be interesting |
| Oh balls, looks like a cross between Gundam 00 and some school idol series. |
Ii tenki desu ne... |
| ok |
| Two idol bands? CG looks really bad and poor animated but forget that, I just want them to sing while fighting and more Kawamori on good weed. skudoops said: Orange hair girl has already lost. I wonder why there's two different sets of variable fighters on each cover. Splitting the cast into male/female sections is used pretty often. |
| Hopefully this won't turn out like Aquarion Logos. The CGi is actually really bad... I hope the story is better and everything. |
 |
| Do you need to watch Macross F or any previous Macross before this ?! I tried to watch Macross F but I didn't like it, so I dropped it. The characters are different in this new macross |
| Looks like huge step down from Macross Frontier. Generic looking character designs.The CGI looks awful, and the fantasy castle looks out of place in the Macross Universe and the idols keep getting younger and younger. At this pace Macross 2030 will have toddlers in nappies as protagonists |
| Macross Fail |
| I like the character designs. Let's see how this goes. |
| I want to hear Minori's voice. This is of the upmost importance as it will tell me if I'll like the series or not. The character design is decent, Wion is adorable better than Ranka. |
 |
| i trust this franchise completely. i screamed. i love this so much already pls come out |
 |
bigger dicks pics for bigger phags  |

| Well, the more I look at the character design, the worse it looks. "Male" characters look like fujoshi bait. Sadly females are not that much better. Don't tell me they want to see if it's possible to do worse than M7. |

Don't tell me they want to see if it's possible to do worse than M7. I like Macross 7, it has the best music in the franchise, I just didn't care for all the sound shit in the variable fighters. |

zetsu_shoren said: bigger dicks pics for bigger phags dang the guys look amazing tbh Antanaru said: you're saying that as if it's a bad thing"Male" characters look like fujoshi bait. it's great to have attractive characters |
| The VFs look pretty decent but I wanted to see them in Battroid mode though. Other than that I'm hoping that the action and music is at least really good, I don't really like how the CG looked although this is just a glimpse so hopefully it turns out better than what was shown. |

mayukachan said: It is bad. They don't look attractive, they look like fags that fuel fujoshi's sick imagination. It was bad in 00, it's even worse in Macross.Antanaru said: you're saying that as if it's a bad thing"Male" characters look like fujoshi bait. it's great to have attractive characters |

Don't watch it if you hate the designs. |
