Macross Frontier 02: Hard Chase

Online Videos by Veoh.com

Alto finds himself in the cockpit of one of the latest Valkyries (or Gerwalk to be technical, I guess) after an unexpected turn of events. Although a bit rough on the edges, Alto displays some potential as a pilot, but will it be enough against the invading alien monster? And that's all I'm going to say about the plot at this point as shows are best experienced by watching them, not by reading a summary.

As a fan of the original series, I'm really liking this attack-on-the-city setting as it seems to pay homage to its classic forefather. It's also obvious they've spent a lot of moolah on this series as the mech animations are sinfully good. Singing certainly appears to be more well integrated in Frontier vs., say, a certain unnamed Macross series that basically force-fed the musical aspect of the show until you puked. Yes, I just can't let that go.

Anywho, so far so good Macross Frontier. You've definitely got my attention.
