I just pop in to mention something: How did the term Bridge Bunny come about?
Go back about 25 years, to a show with transforming fighters and Skull Squadron and BIG DAMN HEROES and Missile Bukakke (which in America is Macross Missile Massacare, but anyway like all bukakke it's better to give than receive). "Bridge Bunnies" was Hikaru Ichijyo/Rick Hunter's nickname for the Macross bridge crew, the 3 of them under Misa Hayase/Lisa Hayes. ...incidentally, in the original series, they all survived. Macek killed them off for no good reason that I can see. And if you pick up Manga Entertainment's subs and see some Star Trek quotes/references is dialogue, it must be noted that Kawamori was a Star Trek fan. Macek wasn't. Resting up to tackle OC busting. Reprioritizing for Alpha Franz skills & abilities and a rework of his profile. Ditto for Naomi. Chief & Ivanovich don't really need any changes.

Correct, it's based off the Norns from the Norse mythology.
Anyway, the Device Forms actually correlate to what the Moirae (Greek version of the three Sisters of Fate) do, as opposed to the original Norns (which, I could not find any reference to their tasks except to water the roots of the World Tree Yggdrasil). Verdandi is Clotho who spins the thread of life (silvryn, anyone? ). Skuld is Lachesis who measures the thread of life with her rod (and that's Leona's weapon as well). And finally Urdr is Atropos who cuts the thread of life (and Leona's glaive). |

Well, Ah Megami Sama pulls a lot of refferences from Norse mythology, so it's not exactly going to be uncommon if you start seeing mention of things like Midguard Serpent, or Fenrir, or Ygdrassil, or anything else like that. But if 'Urd' has the urge to pop out of the TV and/or start drinking sake in copious amounts, we'll know an infestation has occured.

I was totaly happy after I was able to get my hands on the original Macross series. Was great that the Bridge Bunnys survied... especially after they always hung out with the three Zentraedi spys. Raburabu FTW Ironical the original Macross was the very first Anime I saw in my life. But only the first two epsiodes... strangley the never released more than the first two episodes here in germany. Hope you got my PM... I'm really sorry Goose. I hope you can get some well deserved rest. Quote:
Damn it! They can't do this! I need subs... NOW!
