Super Dimensional Musical
After more than a year of patience, I’ve finally got myself a glimpse at the movie version of the mecha musical that is Macross Frontier… ^_^
Released last year in the theatres in Japan, international comrades never got a chance to view the epic motion picture, <across Frontier ~Itsuwari no Utahime~ (The False Songstress)…
However, the DVD and BR releases finally came sometime this moon, propelling many enthusiastic mecha fans in ecstasy… ^.^
Do note that anything from this point onwards will be honey-coated with finger-linckin’-good tasty spoilers from the 2-hour-long movie itself… If you fear your stomach might not be able to digest them all please stay away from the cake… ^_~ Don’t say I didn’t warn you! :P
More walls of text, in depth spoilers and piccies can be viewed in OtaCoolTure no Saka!
The nikuman oppai joke is still here LOL!
Anyways, the movie is pretty much a summary of the first half of the Macross Frontier TV series, albeit with lotsa changes here and there as well as almost 85% – 95% of all new never seen footage!
The start of the movie skips pretty much all the lengthy introductions of the main casts, instead the trio of protagonists (Alto, Sheryl, Ranka) are shown already acquainted with one another beforehand… It will get bloody confusing for those who have not watch the TV series prior to this movie… Therefore a view of the TV series version of Macross Frontier is still recommended… =_=
The movie starts with a bang, literally! It starts off with one of the only couple of major concert in the movie…
Unlike the TV series, the movie redo the concert with all new sequences and several new songs. Here we can see Sheryl dressed up as the White Rabbit.
Next up Sheryl insta-change into her cowgirl dress complete with pew pew pink revolver! XDc I never like Sheryl in the original TV series but somehow her cuteness in this movie moved me by a margin… ^^; No worries tho, Ranka is still my soul, my beat! XDc
Service, service!
Alto x Sheryl went for a date...
What date doesn’t include some awkward moments? XDc Alto gets a face for a particular positioning with Sheryl… ^^;
Ranka doing a promo video for the hardworking construction gentlemen, clad only in swim suit… ^^; I LOL’d so hard at the kanji on her chest: Still Under Development…
Not quite in my opinion, she’s just perfect for me… ^_~
Ranka goes Akiba of the future! Dress as a Valkyrie Musume, Ranka helps promoting the versatile Chougoukin Plamo to the comrades all over Frontier! ‘o’
And her Valkyrie costume can transform into Gerwalk mode too! Henkei! Seems like the attentions she’s getting from this are overwhelming… XDc
And a fanservice for our lady comrades! W00t! I can feel a disturbance in the Force when this scene kicks in… XDc
Whoa! A scene of Grace going commando! >///<
Sheryl dedicated her last song of the concert “Diamond Crevasse” to the fighting S.M.S., especially Alto, her beloved… I really love her look here, seems almost Lacus-chan… >o<
Loli Ranka FTW! <3
Joining Sheryl, Ranka starts her duet, bringing the mecha musical to its climax… ^o^
Wait… That’s it!? Not so…
A preview of the second movie, which will due next year!
Titled Macross Frontier ~Sayonara no Tsubasa~ (Wings of Farewell), Ranka finally début as a songstress!
And… Sheryl x Ranka in wedding gown!? So will we finally get a satisfying epilogue instead of the open-end last episode of the TV series? So will Alto choose one of them or will he gets a harem? XDc
In conclusion, this movie is epic! Altho I do hear some comrades giving it a mediocre score, I find it very exciting and incredible, at least as compared to the other movies that’s pretty much a huge director’s cut of the TV series (Tsk! Tsk! Gundam SEED… Tsk! Tsk! Fate TV Reproduction…) with little to none new footage…
A must watch for any mecha fan, especially Macross Saga fans! Don’t miss this epicness!
