Well, after watching this compared to the preview episode, I've accepted it a little more. Maybe the editing made the ridiculousness of dancing mechas in the middle of an intense and destructive battle a little better. The holographic dancing shield plates is still ridiculous, but feels a little better after a second review. Weird poses as intros to the band is still weird poses. The singing is Macross style, so that is great. The prancing around in a battlefield is a little more sketchy. I'll have to see what episode 2 brings.
I still don't like the main song of Walkure, which sounds so awkward with that English chorus, and so generic sounding. The second (last song) they sang was better, but I just really dislike the saxophone chorus. Other than the dancing idol groups with ridiculous poses and dancing mecha, I like the other aspects of the show. The battle scenes are great, when they don't involve idols. It also seems like they cut some scenes from Walkure in the city compared to the preview. Well, the guy that made this series and AKB0048 is the exact same guy (Kawamori Shouji), so it is not surprising that they are so similar.

Is it really machine issue? Hayate did indeed great job with his battle dancing,which is something he was more or less accustomed beforehand, but got pawned in he tried fly away in fighter form. Which he couldn't ever try before.

(The flier is from a stamp rally to promote the series, so it was an official event.) Eh, as much as this is the norm for mecha anime, i sorta like how Sidonia averted it, in that the newer model mech had the exact same controls as the older model, but piloted in a totally different fashion because the auto-assist was tuned to be more aggressive; that seems like a more realistic take on how two machines with superficially similar control schemes should handle. |

It's true that I've watched the previous series, so the general situation was probably clearer to me to begin with. But I felt as if this gave a slightly clearer introduction than Frontier. It took rewatching the whole series for me to really get it there.
The stowaway is the debut role for Suzuki Minori, who is 19 and from Aichi (where Nagoya is). She says she started watching late-night anime in the upper grades of elementary school (!) and decided that she wanted to become a seiyuu. She did a tiny bit of formal training when she was in school. But it was only when it was announced that this show would be made that she decided to go for it. And she was chosen from among 8000 entrants for this role. Since childhood, she has had the cute nickname of "Minoringo." In Japanese, ringo means "apple." I thought she did a nice job of the ingenue role. I really enjoyed the whole episode, from the space fighting to the mecha dancing to the singing and the hero's character.

Let's see who comes out of this best:
Hikaru Ichijo: Experienced civilian aerobatic pilot. Falls asleep in cockpit of intact VF-1. Quickly grasps basic flying of VF-1, totally unprepared for combat and Battroid mode. Shin Kudo: Experienced military fighter pilot. Takes over severely battle-damaged VF-0. Makes some minor attacks before VF is disabled. Alto Saotome: In flight training at high school. Takes over slightly battle-damaged VF-25. Makes some minor attacks before being rescued. Hayate Immelman: As far as we know, a skilled Work Destroid operator. Takes over a moderately battle-damaged VF-171. Completely outclasses multiple Regults and a Glaug in physical combat, transforms and flies fighter before having a weird glowing naked moment and having VF disabled. ...Hayate seems to be in the lead here. |

I just find it hard to believe that a Destroid designed for civilian work, would have the same controls as a Valk. Then again the controls could be similar while its in Battroid mode. |

Hmm... they might be brewing up a second coming of the Max/Milia romance, with Hayate playing the genius rookie that infuriates and fascinates the traditionally trained and seasoned Mirage. |

Mikumo appears to do something similar with all of her hair while she sings- and Ranka could do something like that too, apparently. How many of these Protoculture-seeded races have tentacle hair, and should the humans be worried? |
