I found a post about Mylene's character growth in episode 33 among my drafts so I cleaned it up a bit, finished it, and posted it here! <:

I've been pretty damn busy lately due to various issues and misfortines that hit me (and my computer) in the past few months, so I haven't had much time to do anything new for this page. Hopefully things calm down soon enough for me and I have the time and energy to spare for Macross 7 once again! Meanwhile, and since I doubt anyone really reads these updates this is more of a note to myself, a huge Macross poll was going on at NHK Japan and Macross 7 got some wonderful results! Basara ranked at #2 among people's favourite Macross characters, Macross 7 ranked at #3 for favourite show, and Totsugeki Love Heart at #3 for favourite song! Fire Valkyrie got #4 among favourite mechs. A really nice full rundown of the results can be found here on DeCultureShock! One thing I want to throw my 2 cents in is a vague comment by Kawamori, stating that he might be interested in working on a Macross 7 sequel. Now... you'd THINK a fanboy like me would be excited about it, but I honestly don't know how to feel. More than anything, it leaves me worried and anxious. Macross 7 had a really nice wrap-up with Dynamite, and every time a good story gets a sequel, there's at least a 70% chance that it will mess up the story and the characters. Not to mention that Macross is infamously inconsistent series-to-series, so how a sequel series would work out is beyond me.
On the other hand, a sequel would shed light on the old show and introduce it to more people. I guess I just hope that, if a Macross 7 sequel will actually happen someday, that they try to stay true to the spirit of the original, especially in regards to Basara's character. Also, beinging back Mikimoto as a character designer would be ideal. Designs really went downhill after Macross 7. Now, an extremely important thing to point out is, that the article I linked does say that everything said by Kawamori was extremely vague and should be taken with a grain of salt which I'm honestly quite happy to do. There's also the fact that Kawamori mentions a new project and follows it up saying he'd be interested in doing a Macross 7 sequel, meaning that the current Macross project he may or may not be involved in is NOT the mentioned possible sequel. So yeah, basically I wanted to put these thoughts somewhere, and this is probably the best place to do it lmao Cheers, -Jim |
