Macross F ( マクロスF ) OP - 「Triangular」


You can get a glimpse of the new space dimensional fortress in the opening sequence. In one sequence it is throwing up AA fire, another shot at the end of the opening:


I don't know if we'll see it in action any time soon. I haven't figured out what the other variable fighter is, shown near the end of the opening (with 9 seconds to go) in silhouette along with the VF25.

Also, the look of the Zentrans and Meltrans has changed somewhat since the original TV series, often having green or olive skin with strange hair colors plus pointed ears. There was some of this in the DYRL movie, but it became more prominent in Macross Plus and Macross 7. I liked it better when they looked more human.

Without the help of subtitles or a translation, I don't know what is going on with the micronization of the main Meltran ace in episode 4--I think it is the same one who was flying the training mission earlier, but there is a very bizarre personality change (or age regression?). What's up with that?
