I found myself really enjoying this episode when I watched it, probably due to the nice and cheerful feel it has. Not only does it develop the characters of Alto and the others, it also makes the sci-fi setting a lot firmer. This is done through the well incorporated display of the more advanced technology that is employed by Frontier. Being a sci-fi fan, this in particular made the episode an excellent watch for me. Of course, it also generates a lot of hints for possible future events, such as more response by the aliens to Ranka’s voice, as well as the attack received by Sheryll’s home fleet. Now to watch the next episode…

Again, another nicely paced, well animated action episode. However, this series is seriously lacking some substance now. However, the semi-cliffhanger ending certain does a good job of eliminating that problem. I still haven’t seen the following few episodes, but I’ll be sure to get to them soon. One surprise for me was seeing the giant of a woman (can’t remember names…) turn into a loli character. Not just because it’s amusing in itself, but more likely due to the fact that such an outrageous thing was included in a rather serious show…but I guess it’s all in good fun.

Well this episode is rather…uneventful. OK, that’s the wrong word to use, but honestly, it feels that way despite the progression of the story. I guess it just feels rather bland in comparison to the previous two episodes. Right now, Code Geass is better, but still, the high tech, epic feel of Macross F is quite awing. The problem is, I’m finding the story somewhat generic, which isn’t doing the show such a good favour. However, the high significance that is played on idols and music is quite endearing. There’s also a bit of a quality drop in this episode, but that doesn’t matter as much.

Sorry for this rather late post, I’ll try to keep more up to date with this show in the future. With that said, I must say, I haven’t really seen much this season, so it’s likely that I won’t blog anything apart from this and Code Geass. There’s also Bleach, and some time in the future I hope to resume my D.Gray-man and Naruto blogging. One reason, aside from my busier schedule these days, for my lack of blogging, is my lack of interest in a number of the new shows this season. It’s quite sad but hardly anything is being subbed speedily as well, which puts me off trying to follow them as well.
