Weekly Anime Comic: Macross - page 17
Added 2023-07-21 21:57:47 +0000 UTCI can totally admire and respect the ingenuity and creativity in something but still not want to have to sit through it. I think the idea of reusing old animation with new audio and using the "dream logic" excuse to stitch together scenes that never had anything to do with with each other is a genuinely smart way to give cut the animators some slack. I especially pop for the reuse of the opening credits footage... complete with playing the theme song again. That's some prime meta-humor right there. And yet, every time I revisit this series, I get more and more restless during this episode. Re-contextualization aside, it IS still a clip show. I've already seen three quarters of this stuff! Let's get to something new, already!
...also, just as a random though, has anybody ever confirmed if this episode might have had an influence on the final episodes of Evangelion? Because that feels like something that would be true.
