Feels like extreme GiTS.

Grace agitated Sheryl to hasten the sypmtoms?
Back to being a tool?

Why is Alto at home?
lol, "Confidential Message"
??

The restriction in the scenes, the place the characters can go, makes me think of a RPG.
The place is actually so big but its always that few locations.

Alto knows.
Who will he choose?
Will both be alive in the end?

Alto did open the "Confidential Message".
How does Alto feel towards Sheryl?
Is she just a reminder of his mother?
An object of sympathy?

If they get on with IT then Alto may get infected?

Hmm, what in that "Confidential Message"?

Ranka kind of a hostage.

Somehow I get that feeling that its dangerous to sing in the Macross world.
Whats Sheryl doing?

Ai-kun still looks like a good guy.
Not.

Urge to fold planes in the middle of the night.
She hoped that he would understand.

Reminded me of when Kallen said goodbye to Lelouch.
But this ones more dramatic.

Song titles start to become ep titles.

Yup classic bad timing.
Last one I saw was in Nogizaka.

lol, the cosplay is the real deal.

Could Ranka be carrying the next Queen?

Unknown to the Prez, Vajra saved him.
Kyon seem to have much followers or is the Prez not well liked?

The reason to sing.
The duty of a professional.

Why this song?
Bad things happen if you don't put the right stuff into singing.

Things escalate to the endgame scenario.
Amp the "bad" singing, not good.

They look that same but had powered up throughout the series.

Brera, the doll.
How real is he?

Kyon still had it his way.

Ai-kun in hibernation/metamorphosis?
A cat.

Alto 'snakes' back home.
Defeated.

Uncover work? Or are they targetted?

Holiday and there are couples everywhere.

Sheryl. Defeated?
The Saotome house is rich enough to take in another person?

Is Grace making use of Kyon?
Grace going the way of mad scientist.
Queen. Reminds me of Kiva.

Evil plan!

The stage is an addiction not easy to quit.

Wished there was more detail on the date/investigation.

Weird shojo manga-ish pretty face in some of the scenes in this ep.

Brera and Ranka, emptied vessels.
Life reboot.
Mind forgets, the body remembers.

Ok they are to shoot the Prez!

Realistic alien cosplay.

Dense Alto.
Micheal can't take it and reveals the Trianglr situation.

Micheal is afraid to love because he won't know when he is to die?

Ai-kun is Vajra just as suspected.
The enemy is within.

What awaits Ranka?
The classic bad timing scene.

"Noam"?
Are those pirated?

Sheryl suffers.

V-type infection?
Theres Mao!
Ranshe Mei?
117th?
The earlier flashback gave away Grace.

Wasn't these stuff supposed to be wiped out or something.

Speak of the devil.
She doesn't look good.

So they are real siblings?
Is Ranka an experiment or a real being?

Manmade rain?
Detailed rainfall report.
Kind of feels weird.

Sheryl is a goner?
No more love triangle?
Ranka wins?

Micheal has his ways.

Man, I like the peeks into their tech.

Looks like an having an idol is important when you are drifting somewhere in outer space.

Sheryl in the streets.
No one regconizes her.
Discovering and helping Ranka resulted in her downfall?
Well she is used to tour the colonies where Grace searches for Ranka.

Grace's words repeat in her head.
The strong Sheryl is broken?

Sheryl in the dumps.
Alto's bro picked up a trump card to make Alto come home.
Strange coincidence.

They really got into the shopping spree.
..

Why did the Vajra come at this time?

Ok, so the 'ghost' is due to the folding.

We get to see the audio app of the OS.
'Revenge', a pretty strong word.

Ozma wants the truth.
Not bad. Good fighter.

Another of those good bad guys plot?
Or does Brera not know everything?

There has to be fights during concerts.
Ok no clone, its her.

?
Vajra evolved?
Another "this-type" of enemy.
Melee will always work, it seems.

Ranka's turn but Sheryl's first ep concert is more flashy.

That egg, looks like an Ai-kun is inside.
Is Ai-kun an alternate cultured form of Vajra?
The product of the feedback of songs?

Woah, it just bleed.
The blood.
Woah

Phew.

What to discuss about?
