I haven't even seen the ep entirely and I don't think a Valk has enough thrust to propel her vehicle and that massive ass L through space. I feel so god damn bad for her.

So like Mirage has a birthday the fucking day before Freyja's and nobody is even trying to celebrate that shit. They haven't even acknowledged the woman's birthday. Both Freyja and Hayate would be dead if Mirage didn't save them 2 episodes prior to this shit. "But but my birthday is to..." "Shut the fuck up and get Freyja a present Mirage!!!" "Ok." Poor woman. Damn Mirage can dress, she's got a nice shopping outfit. She's so pissed off at Hayate right now. Aww Hayate bought Mirage some ice cream. I wonder how much fan art is going to come from Mirage eating ice cream. God Bless You was a good song, but poor Mirage, just...damn. She had to help plan and still be there for this party when nobody really seems to give two shits about her really. She's just Hayate's friend and shield for Walkure.

I was actually curious about this since I didn't remember it being brought up, and Mirage's birthday is actually 2/11 and Freyja's is 11/3. Nowhere near close to each other.

I don't understand the rage about Mirage's birthday.
Nobody gave a shit about it. They started planning for Freyja's birthday...on Mirage's birthday. She had to plan and shop for Freyja's birthday on her very own birthday. Freyja got a cart full of shit and the day before Mirage just got some ice cream.

Wikia is wrong. Freyja's is 11月(November)3日and Mirage's is 2月(February)11日. Official site is my source and I can read Japanese.

Well damn fucking wikia. I can't read Japanese so thank you for clearing this up. Takes some of the sting out of her treatment. Some, not all.
 
Less than 2 weeks away to pre-order the Macross Delta VF-31J Aug 1st 16:00 JST

Mirage, Hayate and Freyja go on a mission to find Hikaru, Misa and Minmei on the Megaroad 01.

Issamu was badass enough to survive fighting the Vajra in an outdated YF-19...

SMS VF-19 advance was so awesome looking. it was too short of a cameo.

i hope Messer makes a permanent return in movie.
 
hahaha yeah, i'm still waiting for her development, as a character or pilot.
I want both. She hasn't had any real stand out moments as a pilot. She's never even gotten a decent action sequence that I can remember. Her character moments came in the last ep and they were just depressing. Has she even shot anybody down yet?

Why the hell she should wait 15 years?
And i can tell you Japan will goes mad if this plot happens.

No, that's not what I meant. It could also be that Hayate chooses her and stays with her forever. I don't know. lol I don't mind being wrong. I love the show. I like it more than Frontier because it balances all the Macross-ism pretty well. I'm not really sure why you're upset at me.

Because i'm not happy with the write of Mirage, it even reminds me Tales of Zestiria now.
Hell even Mirage's seiyuu sounds a bit disappointed in her interview about Macross Delta.

SDF, the original.
Miria gives zero fucks, like not even the hint of a fuck. Which episode is this? I haven't even seen this scene in Robotech yet and I'm on the last disk. And why is Max just sitting there like a hippie? This clearly wasn't the first time this happened. "Misa's got good reflexes all will be fine."

Sounds like she's really not enjoying the treatment of her character. She's got the potential to he awesome but they're really not giving her a lot to work with. Most of the time in Macross both women in the triangle get their moments to be awesome. Mirage has just been that stiff older sister type chick so far. At least she can dress, she had great outfits last ep.

They're in my eternal backlog.

Was one of the Macross the one where the lady like throws a baby to another person? Cause if so that's at the top of my list
Dude watch them you'll probably like the original and Frontier the most. Macross 7 is um...a bit out there, but even still it's a solid enough show. Oddly enough Delta is my least favorite so far. Don't get me wrong I like it, but I already know I'll have to rewatch once it's done t form an actual opinion of it. The pacing just seems slow to me.

She tires to brush it off with
"the baby has a re-enforced skeleton" and it was in zero-g but yeah she still threw a baby lol.
Don't worry there are example of much, much worse parenting from Milia.

it's on Macross episode "Viva Maria: Episode 30 where they capture the satellite factory.

the scene was cut out from Robotech

Oh my fucking god lol!!! Yeah she doesn't seem...great as a parent. I guess she's the Toph Bei Fong of Macross on that front. What else has she done? Though she didn't seem that bad in Macross 7, just controlling.

This explains why I've never seen it and I've only seen the dub of Macross once so I don't remember this.

Too bad they never said what happened to Komilia...

Finally got around to episode 16 today. Yeah...they've definitely been making a point of giving Mirage the short end of the stick. Not only does she tend to get very little focus in general within the series, it doesn't seem like she was ever intended to be seen as a viable choice for Hayate. Underdeveloped as a character beyond anything relating to her as a pilot, not allowed by the writers to have the same level of piloting ability as her grandparents, and unlike the rivals within the triangles I'm most familiar with in this series (SDF, Plus, Frontier), she never has any real opportunity to be competitive.

Even as a dirty traitor who jumped ship to Team Freyja early on in the series, I can't say I'm pleased with this.

At least you have the common sense to jump ship. I'm going to be like the violin crew on the Titanic...playing a sad song as my ship sinks. I'm just highly annoyed how they're just not allowing Mirage to really be anything. She's just stiff. Best character design wasted on her. And why the fuck are they going to call her a Jenius without the piloting ability to back that shit up? Emilia, one of my favorite Macross one off characters in a half hour managed to sing Basara to a near fucking stand still, battle Gibil and just be awesome.

How the heck is she like this when she's powered by a badass bloodline? If you want to see what her character could have been like go watch Macross 7. She's essentially Gamlin. M7 managed to take Gamlin, the dude nobody wanted to see be the star of the show and made the dude bro as fucking fuck. I love Gamlin, he's the broest bro to ever fucking bro.

First few shots of the vita game. Waiting to hear what content from other series is in because if it is only Delta 1-13 I'm not sure that is worth it. Only extra characters confirmed so far are from DYRL and F.

I'm on the ep where Claudia tells Misa about how her and Roy hooked up. God damn Misa had to eat a lot of shit during this triangle. Watching Hikaru tear into her when she actually just wanted to invite the guy over for some tea was just horrible. Roy's character model is so inconsistent in this ep. He goes from hippie to short hair based on distance. You know Hikaru really is dense as fuck. Misa's done everything short of throw her tits in the dudes face and it took till the end of this episode for him to realize that Misa loves him. Seriously, you guys got mad at Alto but you didn't get mad at Hikaru?

HEY HIKARU YOU FUCKING GOD DAMN BLOCK HEAD HOW FUCKING HARD IS IT TO SAY TO MINMAY "I'm busy today cause I have a date." HOLY FUCKING SHIT THIS MOTHERFUCKER IS FUCKING INFURIATING AAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
tumblr_nu5ilfDdpV1u2pphqo1_500.gif

Kaifun shut up and eat a fucking donkey dick, fuck this ass monkey. DYRL's biggest mistake was not fucking vaporizing motherfucking god damn Kaifun. FUCK THAT MOTHERFUCKING MOTHERFUCKER.

Misa feeding that puppy is so cute. Is there a porn shop on the SDF-1 and they covered it up by calling it "Adalt Toy?" Dude could be having some hot ass sex with Misa right now, but noooooooooo, he had to go see Minmay who has the greatest cock blocker in all of anime stalking her ass.

Ugh this fucking Christmas episode. No wonder why I usually prefer marathoning Macross. Watching my favorite character get the shit knocked out of her once a week for several weeks would drive me fucking crazy. Seeing a drunk catatonic Misa singing Minmay songs is depressing.

While standing before a fiery inferno motherfucking Hikaru finally ballsed up and chose Misa, fucking god damn. Misa practically told Minmay to shut up and get over him. Minmay you fool. Hikaru and MIsa live to protect people like you and your dip shit cousin. They don't just live for themselves they live for the people. If you don't get it now you're never going to get it.

(cut long rant)

Yeah Hikaru is a bit an ass those last few episodes where he's pretty much knowingly playing both sides.

Fucking Kaifun drew Griffith level of hate from me. Constantly gets his ass saved by the military then turns around saying "uh you shouldn't have done that, i want peace" then finally gets peace and still finds a way to complain "uh this isn't the kind of peace i wanted."

What I don't get with Hikaru is that the dude pretty much had four years to make a choice and in a way his heart made the choice for hime like 2 years before the show even ended. He seemed to have a way more mature and balanced out chemistry with Misa than he did with Minmay. Only reason why he clung to Minmay was because he'd just be in innocent kid mode whenever Minmay popped up, but he was more grown up than that at that point. Minmay wanted him to have a life he was going to be happy with and even towards the last half he seemed to think about Misa way more than Minmay. I think Alto had what a year tops with his triangle? Now Kaifun, he's not even on Griffith's level cause at the very least that motherfucker was charismatic. Once you stripped away Kaifun's good looks he was just a preachy asshole. Fuck that fool.
 
Episode 17.
I give you guys something need to prepare if you didn't watch it yet.
Mirage had like what, 4 lines in this episode, not wonder people like her in Japan getting even more frustrated

Is there a photoshop of that Office gif with her trying to get into the room, but most likely Hayate forcing the door closed on her yet? Delta writers...

My new theory is that this series will get a School Days style ending. I'd be OK with that.
Just read what the fuck that even means. So...
Mirage is going to stab the shit out of Hayate, cut off his head and then show that shit to Freyja before murdering her as well with the Macross twist Mirage does a kamikaze attack on the Macross Elysion because everybody on that fucking ship just fucking ignores her?
 
Damn, Mirage giving into that desperation here:
13680611_1043098222410790_431379202420899292_n.jpg

Mirage is even getting shit on in silence in the briefing room. At least Freyja has the good common sense to not show a fuck ton of cleavage in...whatever the fuck they're wearing during this mass broadcast. Lol was "My Dickulture" really an accurate translation? I'm surprised these guys aren't trying to fuck their mammal phones. I'm legit convinced this show just does not like Mirage. Either her VA pissed somebody off behind the scenes or something else. They just torture the poor girl. She doesn't really even get to smile with Hayate. Just sitting here waiting for one of or both of Hayate's heads to explode with all these damn close ups of him panting and reacting to Freyja's song. I honestly hope Hayate catches a rune boner from Freyja so intense that it just kills him. I guess since Windermereans live short lives just a couple of years to them is like a decade for humans. Hayate probably shot himself in the foot with that shit. Bogue does not like Walkure, still not as funny as the Zentraedi finding out about kissing though, shit was like poison to them. I think Hayate's dad nuked his sons ship...fuck. You know, if Hikaru found out some shit like that Misa would seek him out and comfort or at least speak to the dude. Mirage don't do shit.
 
soon everyone soon....

If that does happen I'm not exactly going to like it because it'll just make Mirage look like second fiddle because Freyja got pissed cause the dude's dad killed her parents. Usually with these things they paint both women in a positive enough light to allow the guy the option of a choice. The only time I didn't feel this happen was in M7 cause you had a choice between Basara and Gamlin. Basara was a demented fucking space hippie that would spend his down time either singing at a mountain or singing at a comatose space vampire that he almost orgasmed to death. Gamlin was a straight laced military dude, but the dude had layers, once those got peeled back Gamlin became awesome.
 
Macross Delta 17

There's only ONE song in Japanese with 'SOS' in its lyrics anyone should care about
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3o-uM4V3Sdo

DIDIRI, DA DA DA DA DIDIDIRI

That aside I can't get over them hacking by singing. Like my suspension of disbelief in this show about singing superheroes stops it at that moment. Also the jelly ass face of what's her face.

And Hayate having flying-orgasms while looking at her sing? Then the almost confession. Jesus christ, this pairing is absolutely confirmed, stay losing Mirage. Your love is an illusion. Mirages are something a whore does for money... or COCAINE.

But seriously, any hopes for the Mirage ship went out the window with this episode. Even with the two things that made Freiya's heart-on get soft, it's just so they don't get together right away and have some hardships as there are still 5+ episodes to go.

You wouldn't even bat an eyelash to the weird shit that goes on in Delta if you've seen Macross 7. Delta as far as I'm concerned is more of an extension of Macross 7 than it is to Macross Frontier to me. And also go watch the original Macross since I feel the love triangle in that is way better written than the one in Delta so far. Even though towards the end Hikaru was a fucking block head.
