Im pretty much a n00b at Macross,so far Ive seen 4 eps of Frontier and 1 ep of Zero(And i am LOVING IT!It has to be my 3rd anime love.)
So here is my question: is Michael a micloned Zent?

ReddyRedWolf · 2008-05-11, 07:24

More like a Zentradi halfsie. Which is pretty normal in the Macross universe after Space War 1.
Having most of Earth's population blown up and teaching the Zentradi (especially Meltrandi) love, kissing and... Er... baby making.

Thank culture.

Thank you for answer.
So how were they multiplying before they were "decultured"?

Cloning.

Which is why they were pretty much gender segregated.

ReddyRedWolf · 2008-05-11, 08:46

Heck even Kamjin, who doesn't like the new Zentradi way of life, admitted culture had it's benefits.

Spoiler for Kamjin and Lap'Lapiz:

Damn horndog.

Moved Wesley84's question to Super Dimension Fortress Macross thread.

This is also why the Zentradi use the term "miclone" as the name for humans - it's a concatenation of "micro" and "clone".

What's the refugee capacity of a colony fleet?

SoldierOfDarkness · 2008-05-11, 22:01

This may have been answered but what's the size of the escort fleets protecting the Colony ships?

Cadorna · 2008-05-11, 22:21

A Sample New Macross Colony Fleet

01 - New Macross Class Colonisation Ship
01 - Hollywood Class Amusement Ship
01 - Riviera Class Resort Ship
01 - 3 Star Heavy Industry Supply Ship
01 - Einstein Class Research Ship
01 - Mark Twain Class Casino Ship
01 - Sunflower Agricultural Ship
01 - Heaven Class Cemetery Ship
01 - Beginhill Military Training Ship
02 - Uraga Class Escort Battle Cruiser
02 - Guantanamo Class Stealth Carrier
08 - Haruna Class Stealth Cruiser

That question has never come up to my knowledge, but it'd be reasonable to assume that the Island One ship could double up its residents at need. Moreover, the other ships in the fleet should also be able to hold a certain number of civilians. SDF-1 itself managed to contain a population of 58,000 in addition to its crew complement.

Every single Macross fleet is going to have different numbers, but Cadorna's should be fairly typical. Occasionally, fleets would also have Zentradi battleships and cruisers as well.

All together, a typical fleet would have over a thousand variable fighters, bombers, and attack craft (Ghosts, etc.).

ReddyRedWolf · 2008-05-11, 22:37

Macross 7 colony City 7 had a capacity of a million a big step from the Megaroad class which had 80,000 civilian and 7,000 military personnel.

Of course when they retrived Macross 5's citizens it didn't seem crowded.

From our discussions at the Macross Universe thread Macross Frontier has a capacity of 15 million.

Perhaps if you regard Island 1 and all it's island ships as one ship.

Officially the stated capacity of Frontier fleet is quoted at 10 million.

Specifically Island One quoted at 5 Million.

However the information does not state if this total consist of only the registered non-military colonist or is in fact inclusive.

also the number stated is vague, but common sense dictate that the number quoted is the maximum designed load, and not the current population (which is assumed) to be at less then the stated maximum to allow for growth, immigration and etc.

Beyond that number, it is assumed that it will put noticeable impact on the quality of living and life support systems in operation.

Who is the TRUE main character of Macross Frontier? Don't answer me saying "it's Sheryl, Ranka and Alto" because I know that already. What I don't understand who is more "main" than others... In SDFM the main characters was clearly Lin Minmei and in Macross 7 was Nekki Basara, but here? Alto seems to have a much more central role than Hikaru IMHO.

duh,

As if it'll be about lame human characters

it's obviously the Valkyrie/Koenig, the VAJRA, Bountiful Meltrandi/bridge bunnies and the SDF Macross Super Dimensional transformable Gun Ship that will be kicking arse and taking names!
