The Macross F “Diamond Crevasse” CD cover gets an interesting workover by way of 2ch, with Sheryl dumped in favour of Lucky Star’s Miyuki. Below you can see the rather attractive original cover. See also Gundam Star 00 for a similar theme of parody…

The Macross Frontier series had ended quite some time but it still lives up to the hearts of many. I must say that the soundtrack for the anime was really epic and astonishing, definitely one of the overall ‘best’s this year so far.

…love, and remember to preorder Macross Frontier OST2? It comes out this week. And it’s as awesome as the first one. If you’ve enjoyed the ride that was Macross Frontier, then those battle anthems about “who you’re gonna kiss” and “remembering love, space bug style” will really rock your socks.

All right. Everyone who reads this blog for the last two years will know that I have an intrinsic dislike for mecha shows in general. However, the belated coming of Macross Frontier made me find my old love of robots firing hyper beams of energy at monsters. I used to watch the first Macross with [...]
