i'm disappointed that the idols don't fly the robots

They do at least fly on the robots.




And there are lady pilots, just not singing lady pilots. As of yet anyway.

Unless they do something unexpected or add in even more new people later, Hayate seems set up to be Freya's pilot. Maybe Mirage will sing though.

Yeah I'm wondering how thy're going to work Hayate in to the cockpit.

Freyja's entrance in to the Walkure seems pretty straightforward.

Wild speculation time:

Mikumo is a vocaloid. That's why her age and everything is a mystery and she can make that W gang sign one handed so easily.

Seriously, try to do it yourself.

This is what I was talking about. I can move my fingers to overlay like the other guy, but I can't get my fingers to bend like this to cross at the first joint, even if I use my other hand to help or bend my fingers.

I did say wild speculation though!

I've seen some of your cosplay and I think maybe you should anyway! Follow your dreams! At least, that's what idols seem to tell me.

I looked at the scene where she de-Vars that one guy and it's more normal. So theory busted maybe.

While i'm not sure if i can reach that same conclusion just yet, it's not like there isn't a precedent for virtual idols in Macross.

Frontier-style? One of the pilots bites it and he has to borrow their Valkyrie?

It better not be Chuck Mustang. He's got a Tomino name that's as awesome as hell and he's actually a pretty cool guy by the look of his design and his...one line? so far. I want him to live.

I'm just hoping they avoid the common problem of song-based shows of repeating the songs, but I don't expect 25 unique songs unfortunately.

Considering the girl is probably going to join Walküre, wouldn't it make more sense to assume they're going to expand the group to have five members and the guy becomes her designated pilot, rather than that they replace someone else?

freyja asks them to let the guy be her pilot, and they just shrug their shoulders and say okay whatever
