It feels like it’s been a while since I’ve watched an action/drama with a solid story, good characters and bombastic action, that had me voraciously inhaling episode after episode. I’d held off on picking Macross Frontier up last spring when it came out, because I wanted to watch some of the earlier Macrosses first… So much for that plan. Several months later, I still hadn’t watched any of them. And I kept hearing good stuff about MF, so I figured I’d take the plunge anyway.

Are you familiar with itasha, the practice of decorating a car anime-style? We're talking a precise, clean, and probably hideously expensive paint job, not some smattering of decals here. The word is actually a portmanteau of itai (which is said when something causes pain) and -sha, which is a suffix for automobiles (like densha, train); the idea is that it's painful on the eyes...even when it's not. And what could be painful about this gorgeous (and official) Macross Frontier itasha? Intended to promote the upcoming movie, the left side is devoted to the green-haired moe girl Ranka Lee, and the right to the brazen and buxom Sheryl Nome. II'm a Sheryl girl, but I'm not too fond of her picture here-- she looks like she's been sitting in a cold bathtub too long. Or like a zombie. Hmm. Oh, and for good measure, Alto and Michael appear on the top of the car, where no one can see them, and they're holding hands. Awww...

Thanks to Saouri for pointing this out. A Macross F Itasha during the launching ceremony contained information that the Macross F Movie will air at Autumn in Japan, and not June as Animage originally reported. I don’t mind waiting a bit more if it gives us more new footage and songs

Hi all, I have sent an email to CDJapan at omo’s suggestion to get this Kanno compilation sheet music, and I’m hoping they could do something about it since the other products in this line seem to be available in their store right now. I haven’t personally purchased from Amazon Japan, but perhaps I’ll try [...]

It’s a pretty slow month for this community, no news from anywhere, but we’re anticipating new live performance releases, CMYoko 2(?), and the Macross F Movie. I recently found out that there is confirmation in Animage’s March 2009 issue that Sheryl and Ranka will have new songs for the movie, and they are Kanno’s compositions. [...]

Seems like there will be a drama CD for Macross F involving Yuichi Nakamura, Aya Endo, Megumi Nakajima and others. It is not clear whether Kanno will be involved in this, but they have to use Macross F BGM, right? It also looks like there will be covers of previous Macross songs, I wonder if [...]

At club meeting yesterday, I had an opportunity to see the beginning of Macross Frontier. Mac F is very well put together. I watched ep.05 before, and it’s noticeable how the opening episodes are done to a higher standard of excitement in order to grab the viewer. The exposition was unobtrusive, and I’ve seen the canonical [...]

Inhale, exhale. You guys have to congratulate (and/or pity) me for being mad enough to do this. There’s actually MORE (!!!) but I had to stop at some point. I guess there just seems to be too many covers of Kanno songs right now, I probably won’t be able to keep up with them anymore. First [...]

Sheryl’s team-up sold 18284 copies in its first two weeks (the rankings for the final weeks are taken as one, thanks for the information Pippa), landing it into the #7 spot, while Ranka’s team-up sold 16980 copies. Not bad, at least they’re in the top 10. Nyan Tama on the other hand is still in [...]
