Macross Frontier - Episode 24 Discussion / Poll

[BetoJR]

^ ^ I wouldn't disagree with that statement much. But, the pace went up considerably on the last episode, we have to give them that...

Consider this, they need to provide closure on:

1. The love triangle
2. Ranka's redemption
3. Leon's coup
4. Briler's secret
5. The mystery behind the Vajra and their queen.
6. Grace and her fellow conspirators' fate.
7. What happened to Galaxy and where is it now?
8. Sheryl's "Nome" parentage
9. SMS and Macross Quarter
10. Vajra vs Frontier conflict
11. Shery's fate
12. Nanase's fate
13. Ozma x Cathy
14. Klan, Breara, Luca

[Natsuki Hyuga]

From all the points you have listed, some points actually can be tied into the others. With good direction, maybe they can squish them in 24 mins (although might be quite hard to do it without a little rushing). Either way, I'm really looking forward on how Episode 25 would close Macross' Frontier Saga now.

You forgot alto's fate, his past ,his dreams. You've got practically everything else down. So, yeah, there's a lot........

[hai_san]

Alto is dead

[BetoJR]

@cerrian:

1. I'm of the mind it's already resolved, but you never know.
2. Don't see much point to it, as I don't really see HOW she can be redemed at this juncture.
3. I guess He'll just die and be done with.
4. May be a set up for a next series?
5. That should be into the "redemption" of Ranka bit.
6. and 7. Should be resolved simultaneously.
8. What's to wrap up, here? Her knowledge of it? Or if she's got any powers?
9. They'll most likely join the fray and help take down Leon. Remember, they're in touch with NUNS, as evidenced last episode.
10. Also linked to Ranka's fate, most likely.
11. The most important bit, for me.
12. She just showing up on her feet should be enough.
13. Hope they survive. All I'm asking.
14. Klan, I hope she's okay after the end. Brera, I couldn't care less, really. Luca's better man up to Nanase, is all I'm saying.

At this point already settled to the satisfaction of the three parties. (Sheryl now knows the answer he will give her when (if) he comes back, Alto now knows what he wants, Ranka hasn't thought about Alto since she resigned herself from the triangle episodes ago). With the victory fanfare and the camera-pantastic kiss even.

2. Ranka's redemption

Hopefully, the main point of the episode. With luck Sheryl going Super Saiyan Nome on her in berserker fury and/or Alto's 'death' will be enough to shake her out of her trance early on so she can be fully proactive for at least this episode.

3. Leon's coup

Or they can just briefly kill him off, or ordered to be arrested. Problem solved.

4. Briler's secret

Can probably be resolved in a brief scene.

5. The mystery behind the Vajra and their queen.
6. Grace and her fellow conspirators' fate.
7. What happened to Galaxy and where is it now?

May never be answered?

8. Sheryl's "Nome" parentage

Not really that important, and no one except Grace knows it anyway, and possibly no one understands its significance. It could be the unspoken miracle cure for Sheryl.

9. SMS and Macross Quarter

Mecha Pron? Yes, please.

10. Vajra vs Frontier conflict

Yep, I guess this will have to be "unresolved" like the Vajra pack up and leave like in Zero. Or they successfully genocide them all to their later horror and shame when they learn they were made use of. (While elsewhere in the Galaxy, the Bird Human is telling Sara Nome "Ha! I told you so.")

11. Shery's fate
12. Nanase's fate
13. Ozma x Cathy
14. Klan, Breara, Luca

They can use the ED montage for this as the epilogue.

[aneeshadc]

Hey guys, what abt Sheryl's awesome enka song? Its gonna be sung in the series at some point rite?

No kidding, I'm practically delirious with excitement!

2. Ranka's redemption
5. The mystery behind the Vajra and their queen.
6. Grace and her fellow conspirators' fate.
9. SMS and Macross Quarter
10. Vajra vs Frontier conflict

What's really going to suck is that I refuse to watch the raws, so it will be until Saturday before I get to see the resolution to all this.
