I am realy dissapointed after watching second film of Macrooss Frontier. I even thought that our main characters behave abnormally, weird in comprasion to TV series.
Story:
I saw only some conspiracy, fights and concerts. I thought i watched some bad shounen - "ignore everything, but make epic fights". Sometimes actions made by characters were artificial and unnatural. Maybe it is caused by disregard characters own will, because they have to move how scenario say? Also when we saw "dead scene" several minutes later we will see something like "oh, miracle happened and he/she is alive!" (that happened more than one time). In the end,
...
film isn't even possible to compare with TV series, because they are completly different stories.
Characters:
The only adventage in film was that, producents somehow featured main male character and relationships betwen him and two other girls (of course his harem). What about others? They were background, we know about them nothing from films, their past is unknown and their relationships can be described easily with words "Person A is hostile for person B" or "person A is friendly for person B". But in TV series we can see something like quarrel between friends, depression, struggle inside someone's mind, normal daily life or fear of death. Back again to what happened in film, for example: someone hear he/she is terminally ill, but he/she is pretending as if nothing happened and we can't see even trace of fear or uncertainty...
Art & Sound:
I can't say anything bad about that. Animators did a good job to make such a smooth and amazing animation. Songs were good (I can't evaluate them objectively, because I watched TV series and I have emotional reaction when I listen them [especially this one with "what 'bout my star"]). To describe animation and sound I need one word - masterpiece
Enjoyment:
I was in very bad mood when I finished watching this film. To be honest my mood was awful. I don't want even say what i was thinking.
Last words:
I don't know how it is possible to screw up this anime. Why they didn't follow story from TV series? They wanted to make something new and better, and it ended by creating a trash. I think they wasted to much money to make such a good animation when plot was bad. And one more thing - a lot of people says that main character chose one girl from his harem. YYY? That's not true D: We saw only his face moving without sound, he could also say that he doesn't love her, and she is only a friend... This is another ending (like in TV series) when producers ignore viewers feelings and say "imagine what he said by yourself". (This is one of reasons why I don't say what I thought when I finally watched this film)
