In which Kors talks about Macross

[korsriddare]

Max and Milia in Macross DYRL. The details still get to me now, the disintegration of the VF rather than outright explosion, the way the top of Macross went. And of course, the dogfight itself. The fighters look damn good.

The Macross Frontier dogfights are nice, but something about the 3D models, or perhaps the explosions, feels not as fluid as DYRL. Not to mention that I think the VF-25 is eh.. ugly compared to the VF-1 variants.

IMO, this is because DYRL? was hand-drawn, while Frontier, like all post-2000 anime, is drawn on computer. That really sucks a lot of the 'authenticity' out of the animation (again, IMO).
