Come on, Kawamori, don't give up, just try to create your own product, and if that's the case, I will accept whatever ending he will produce (Well, I can always go back to the series in case for the worst case scenario...at least in series everyone is happy except Micheal...and Klan)

Well, a director of macross should not give in to any side in my opinion...I know it's a very fine line between listening to good opinion and giving in to others, but if he likes polygamy that much, then don't be afraid to put that concept into the movie again

If I could write to Kawamori I would in an instant (of course a lot of you would as well xD) I've said this before and I'll say it again, I really don't mind what ending we get, whether it be a AltoxSheryl ending or a AltoxRanka ending, I just want to triangle resolved. I might be a Ranka fan but I'm the type of person that can't stand having no one bit of closure. When it comes to movies and series, I need to have a sense of closure to be satisfied (Although Macross Frontier was an exception because I still enjoyed the series despite the ending) and of course most of the questions answered which is another bone I have to pick with the series. Everyone has their own interpretations to the LT but when it comes down to it, Kawamori is the only person that can satisfy one of the sides. I can settle for Ranka having her character improved in the series though, then I wouldn't mind being trolled again since I'll be anticipating it this time around

It would be a bit dissapointing if we have an Alto X Ranka ending...because there's more Sheryl fans than Ranka fans...because sheryl was created with the aim to have a fairly large fan base( further described in the Sheryl topic). Not to mention that most of the ppl thinks that the Triangle almost resolved at the end of the show(to Sheryl's) side(most of the anime newbies, Sheryl fans and some other ppl thinks that...that's a realy good portion of the viewers). So if they're going to do a Ranka X Alto ending it would be dissapointing to them...exept if Ranka have some very SERIOUS development and it makes clear that Alto x Sheryl pairing is not possible in the movie(but if they're going to do this that way then the fans will start complaining about the huge differences in the TV show and the Movie's plot...)

It's obvious that Minmei is the love of Kawamori's life, ignore the looks of the director... Bilrer was Kawamori in this show with the lol Minmei locket. heck he gave his intended ending for the original Macross to this show. Ranka was clearly Minmei in Kawamori's eyes, Sheryl was made originally because it would be cool for Minmei to have an older sister type figure...
Anyway my point is that if Kawamori wouldn't change the result of the original Macross in DYRL when he clearly favors Minmei over Misa "I only existed because they wouldn't let us have a female Captain Global" Hayase... (is this where Minmei fans go lol @ Misa's origins like Ranka fans have been doing for Sheryl?) than I don't expect him to change the result to Ranka. You also have to factor in that Minmei was massive in Japan, clearly bigger than Ranka and even Sheryl who is more popular than Ranka. Minmei made Mari Iijima a star, Ranka's VA can't even get in the top ten of the daily charts in a slow/weak sales week. A lot of Ranka fans thought it was going to go to Sheryl as well... quite a few Ranka fans were bitching towards the end of the series about how one sided the triangle has been in the second half.... gotta love revisionist history... |

Main point is, Sheryl is not the one who were created with that aim, it was actually Ranka. See... Loli, moe, fang, "Kira~!", focus on the series, more songs composed for her (tbh, it is related to NakaMegu too)... Now I must run... I think I will be attacked like how it happened in the club... Not that I have changed my mind about the ending being triangular/draw/no-pairing end :x

LOL...good to know...so Sheryl's "perfect pop star" type character was just a mistake?It's funny but when i first watched the series i tought until the 14-15th episode that it will be Ranka's win at the end(because of my "anime experience" most propably) and then i considered more and more the possibility of Sheryl ending(or false Ranka ending where Sheryl's gonna die as Alto's first love and he slowly begin a new life with Ranka). Clearly after episode 14 Sheryl become more and more popular in my eyes...
Question: if i'm not mistaken in the original script was a clear Sheryl X Alto ending...true? |

This sort of stuff is pretty common, like I said in my previous post Misa Hayase wasn't even suppose to exist in Macross. She was only turned into a character once someone (tv station maybe?) denied Kawamori from having a female captain of the Macross. Due to that he made Global and made Misa in her role. In Gundam SEED Fllay was suppose to pilot Strike Rogue not Cagalli, Kira was suppose to die in the end, Dearka only switched sides because his gundam sales were the lowest of the five. In it's sequel it's obvious kira wasn't suppose to have such a prominent role... only because Shinn was a failure of a lead (great move by Fuduka in having all the Cagalli fans pissed at Shinn in the first few eps...) Kira took over. |

You know, this is kind of amazing that the original setting got scrapped and the 'other' plan that got animated became more popular. I really don't know if I would really want to watch Frontier with Brera and Alto fighting over Ranka. Lack of motivation along with no interest for the characters.

I have no problem with the 2 guys 1 girl type triangle but with Ranka being that girl...I think that kind of triangles needs more mature female leads...and ranka's look+mature personalty can cause the same kind of cathastrophe as the matter-antimatter collosion XD.

In fact, I consider that in all macross series the romance aspect has been well executed, even in M7 (despite Basara's choice). Last edited by pato; 2009-02-07 at 01:41. |

Just because for that kind of triangles we need a somewhat mature female lead who in fact admirable in sense of looks and actions...Ranka was too childish to fit into that image...Perhaps a love triangle with a character like Sheryl as female lead could be good, but that's another matter...

The thing is we have no idea what Ranka would even look like if they went with the original concept, she might look like a younger version of Ranshe than what we eventually got. And it's a given that the character personalities would be different.
