I don't know. It's not playing many places right now...but the official website shows all the theaters it's at. Check there before you come.

Or PM me before you come, and I'll check for you.

Ah! Thanks I never thought of that, theres still some theaters in Yokohama playing it right now luckily, but theres no end dates, so I'll just have to cross my fingers!

Otherwise it's a long wait ahead....

Doesn't that depend on HOW Alto would get back?

Well, considering that he dumped his ship, he HAS to depend on the Vajra for a way home.

No, it didn't. 2012 is when the Megaroad-01 launched. Macross Frontier didn't launch until 2041.

The star map at the beginning is figurative, not literal.

One thing you might consider before making that second argument is that it is hinted but there is no actual scene where this takes place. Kawamori only gives you hope. Just because Sheryl woke up did not mean Alto returned.

Actually it was hinted that Alto would come back so once again moot point.

You're still wrong either way.

[BetoJR]

Good Lord, you guys are still discussing this?

My dearest LoveMeKags:

First of all, it did not take the Frontier 47 years to travel to the Vajra planet, for a couple reasons, and I will bold it in case your selective amnesia or some bullshit disease get in the way.

1. Frontier launched in 2041.

2. The mission to every colonial ship, including the Frontier, was to find a habitable planet for human colonization, and in turn, expand the human race.

3. The Vajra planet was not their original destination. They just happened to change course to it later.

...

[BetoJR]

Yeah, I kinda ROFL'ed here. A little. And I'm at work, mind.

Unless Ranka figures out how to use her powers and request he be sent back to them.

Actually it doesn't take long to fold what took Frontier so long to reach a planet was that they didn't know its location, they would fold blindly without really knowing the destination, and they weren't even shown to do it often considering the problems that it caused them. You really should get a hold of the timeline before you start name calling. It only took them 18 years to find a planet whose location they didn't know, while under attack, which slowed them down, so for the umpteenth time your wrong.

I don't like cleaning up messes, but if you can't express your displeasure with another poster's view without resorting to inflammatory rhetoric, then don't bother posting.

Yeah, I admit, I went overboard with that one.

It's not hurting anyone's feelings, it's stopping what looks like a flamewar from starting (which is against the forum rules).

Also, I do share the frustration of LMK's Ranka-centric viewpoint and ask her did she read the original MF episode threads and the first romance thread to see if the circular argument she is espousing hasn't been covered multiple times before...

[magnuskn]

Nooo, I missed the flaming. Damn you, juicy Star Wars: The Old Republic info, damn you to hell!

And Yet Sheryl was able to traverse all current ships in less than a year. Colony ships ARE slower. Though here the issue is the Vajra muster. If Alto can bring some vajra to jump back, THAN he can get home faster.

I couldn't care less if Alto returns or not (now Sheryl's awakening is my only interest and already got my answer ), but Alto kind of has the earring, right? The earring connects him to Sheryl and, in lesser degree, to Ranka (for her songs only?). So there's no reason to believe that he couldn't get the Vajra cooperation.

I prefer if Sheryl (with Ranka or not, optional) is the one looking for him, to be honest. I like Alto in the role of Hime in distress (switched with Ranka's old one).

Its not just Sheryl who didn't take that long to fold into Frontier, it was repeatedly shown that folding is very fast means of travel. Grace was able to catch up to Ranka and Brera in one episode, and they were able to fold jump to and from Gallia 4 (whose location they knew).So I have no idea where LMK gets her opinion from.

If snippets and bits of information suit the purpose of preventing Alto & Sheryl ever meeting again, she will use it in her argument because it is in her interest.

Thats it.

Though honestly, I think she can do all of us a favor by doing better research of the source-material, instead of misquoting statements and causing ire for longtime fans of the series.
