And unfortunately, HxH is his latest work (and he's stop working since Feb. due to offically health reasons... real reason being he's lazy) HxH's manga is now at vol. 23 in Japan/Chinese. Any of his older series prior to Yu Yu isn't that good... since he was still a developing artist then... |

Tak and C.A.: I miss Amcross too. T.T
But I thought Macross 7 was awesome. Basara Nekki is still one of my favorite, if not my number 1 favorite, anime character.

*Sniff* Yeah, its a rare series where 'grunts' actually mattered, or when heroes exclaim at the numbers of enemies they had to face.
Fleet ships were not mere 'gun-soakers' in Macross, they, like grunts, actually provide practical support for the main characters. Macross gave me a feeling of desperation, of mankind's hope for survival, of something at stake. You really don't see that in Gundam. Not SEED, not Destiny, where a Freedom/Destiny/Justice Gundam is pretty much equavalent to a Zentraedi Fleet of 5,000 warships. Squads, as we have previously discussed, work in teams. Duels were rare. In fact, that whole Myrian vs. Max thing was the only duel in the entire franchise! Even the main character, Hikaru, gets that much glory. He was no new-type/SEED ace, and had to constantly work with his collegues in order to achieve the basic neccessity for survival. What a classic. - Tak |

After a point, it's sort of meaningless to spout off on Macross' superlatives. It sometimes almost feels as if it was designed by people who were trying to address some of the specific problems found in Gundam (this would be just MSG and the MSG movies at the time).

I think Zeta and Victory are actually below Seed and Destiny so that redo is pretty much bollocks to me. The only rewrite I would do is delete Haruhi from the list and maybe replace it with like, Coyote Ragtime Show or Speed Grapher.
You also have YYH on there twice and strangely Dragonball Z was deleted? Super fail.

UPDATE: I just watched the first few episodes of SDF Macross for the first time. Wow, that was great! Fast paced, and filled chock-full of fun moments. Why can't more Gundam shows, and mecha shows in general, be more like that? Quote:

Wow Tak, you and I share some things in common. I'm also a Super Robot Wars fan. But mostly I'm a Psybuster-Valcione R-Nolus Rei fan. LOL.
Has anybody watched HXH beyond the Spider Gang arc? I only know of the OVA...my favorite Spider Gang "member" would be Hisoka. @ cloudedge I don't really read Chinese, it's just the fan in me collecting YYH stuff...^^;; I even have the Ranma 1/2 Memorial Book in Chinese, but that's just because I want to collect it. It's probably because anime isn't exactly mainstream here as it was back then, and most people who buy the anime related stuff are Chinese; plus, the Japanese stuff costs more than Chinese manga ones, too. I could read and understand a little Japanese though. I own a Sailormoon Japanese manga one (book 10), and a Ranma 1/2 Japanese one (number 35), even an old copy of Shounen Jump in Japanese and Nakayoshi in Japanese. :P @ CA I didn't get to watch the entire Macross series, and only learned about Macross 7 from the Super Robot Wars that was on the GBA (was it? ^^;; ). I watched the Macross movie though. I believe it was called "Do You Believe In Love?".

Man, now I can only remind myself of the glory that was once Macross on SRW. Kind of sad, if you ask me. Look, if Kawamori can design that lil' Aibo robo-puppy, he can very damn well design another Valkyrie fighter for another Macross franchise. - Tak |
