How to make Frontier even more JAWSOME (I kid you not)
Oh yeah, speaking about my massive boner for the quality trolls at Colony Drop, I read their criticism about Macross Frontier.
Yes I love Macross Frontier, yes, I remembered love, but these guys are right. Macross Frontier CAN be better, even if Episode 25 is the most beautiful Deus Ex Machina I have ever seen.
So, Macross Frontier: The Jawsomeing.
- First of all, we actually axe Luca and that random big-tit girl who happens to be Ranka’s friend. And replace them with cooler characters. Or not.
- Secondly, KILL SHERYL. As much as I liked the epic medley of songs at the end, it isn’t really worth saving Sheryl for it. We have to force a decision. And much character growth. That, and we can always have SHERYL’S GHOST perform epic medley if need be
- Third, expand on Alto’s backstory AND GIVE HIM SOME BACKBONE FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF. Make his supposed “estrangement” a giant misunderstanding of epic proportions (his father would have supported him anyway, father was really pissed and didn’t mean it and has tried to make amends) and make us all see Alto’s raging against the machine was all for NOTHING. And then we make Alto’s father SLAP HIM. After Alto realizing that Alto was RAGING AGAINST THE MACHINE for NOTHING. Oh yes. Alto deserves all the slappings he should have gotten.
- More on Michel’s past, and for crying out loud, more Michel X Klan. And yeah, make Mr. Pretty Boy Sniper actually risk his life for the loli at least a few times before he becomes like that Norweigan Blue.
- Expand on the BAD GUYS. And explain WHY BILRER LOEV MINMAY. WHY BILRER LOEV MINMAY. WHY BILRER LOEV MINMAY. *nerd rages
Hey stupid t-shirt makers, White Wolf Called.
They want that shirt pulled because that shirt is an insult to EXALTED, and White Wolf (though if you ask me, White Wolf are doing a good job of insulting themselves.).
No White Wolf does not want that shirt pulled, but I do. It’s an insult to the EXALTED line 
I AM AN EXALTED FAN, CLEAVE ME WITH AN ORICHALUM GRAND GOREMAUL, WHY DON’T YOU.
This horrible T-shirt is brought to you by Off World Designs, Hinano, and White Wolf.
Speaking of Hinano…
Yes, I heard. Congratulations are in order, and a pie in your face and a hamster on jp’s head for you :3
Have a happy life together, you lovebirds, AND DON’T GET DIVORCED
SUP DAWG I HEARD WAH HATES TROLLAN IN HIS ANIMU BLOGGAN
SO I PUT SUM TROLLAN IN MAH ANIMU BLOGGAN SO THAT WAH CAN BE HATIN’ WHILE HE ANIMU BLOGGANS.
…Finally, a good way to use THAT meme for full effect.
Now then, while I don’t always agree with wah on every issue, this is one of the things we both are in agreement. One could mention the hypocrisy being shown here, I don’t think wah actually meant it.
We really need less psuedo-intelligent OVERANALYSIS of stuff as a premise to troll. If you wanna troll, just do it. Unless the aim of it is to be a passive-aggressive troll, then you are a E– troll and deserve all the CLEANSE, PURGE, KILL you get hit with. (AND YES, YOU PEOPLE OUGHT TO KNOW WHO WAH IS REFERRING TO. UNFORTUNATELY MOST PEOPLE ARE TOO POLITICALLY-CORRECT TO SEE THE CANCER THAT IS INFECTING ANIMU BLOGGAN.)
Besides, it should be pretty obvious as to whom wah is actually talking about. And no, the answer is not COLONY DROP. COLONY DROP is A++ trolling, would love to be trolled by them again.
(Yes there is such a thing as A++ trolling.)
There was supposed to be a funny Onion-like Conan O’ Brien inspired mock article here, but I ran out of funny after the meme.
And yes, Colony Drop (the blog) is A++ trolling. Entertaining and INSULTING. Can’t hate this combination of AWESOME.
SPRRRRRRRRRING.
In a massive pretense to actually prove that I am not actually a lazy bugger stuck in THE ARMY, I shall pretend to review the latest Spring Season. Be warned: THIS IS NOT YOUR MOTHER’S REVIEW.

I shall now wait for my rotten fruit and death threats, along with several lawsuits I should be getting for ripping off a few copyrighted taglines.
Hurr Hurr Hurr Copyrights.
Exalted. Always making dead memes moar ausum. (1)
People bitch too much about copyrights. Stuff like oppression, denial of rights and all that junk. Unfortunately we have made the issue so highly ppolarized and politicized that both sides have become somewhat similar to FUKKEN AL-QAEDA in terms of extremism. (Debate turns people into terrorists, more at 11.)
Unfortunately, some of us here require more than rhetoric, swear words, dented egos and snobbery here, so I’ve decided to… … …
ACTUALLY LOOK AT WHAT LOCAL LAWS SAY ABOUT IT. With help from the Berne Convention (1979 Revision.) Case law included. I think.
I dunno about other countries, they may or may not follow the Singapore Copyright Act (I know the Aussies do), because that’s where I come from.
Let’s get started.
Part IV, Division 5, Sect. 105, states that we break the law IF we either sell digital THINGS we GRABBED OFF THE INTERNET or seeing said THINGS in public via a trade exhibition (like AFA) (also a good idea to not play your digitally-grabbed Touhou game in public. That is really stupid, even if no one knows.)
105(2)(b) is interesting, though. It implies that your digitally-gotten things might be ILLEGAL if it prejudicialy affects the owner. But then again, this is worded so vaguely, no one knows what kind of prejudice it could be. And as we all know, potential profits are not a very good reason (but no one has any common sense now).
Fun fact: An NDS R4 (and all related devices) is considered illegal in Singapore since, I dunno, YOU CAN BUY THE GAME OFF THE SHELVES? Sometimes, cheapskate lazy people need to remember that buying games isn’t a bad thing altogether. If the game is any good. Unless you can’t find the game without trawling eBay. Or wasting time and money and dodging the Customs cops. eBay is dangerous. I cannot find a legal copy of Rocket Slime in Singapore.
Now we move on to Section 110. Animébloggers, take a breather: We’re reviewing bloody animé. HOME FREE BABY. HA HA HA I R ANIMUBLOGGA I REVIEW ANIMUS. :3
Section 114, domestic use clause, aka home use. I’m not too sure about this. If I asked someone to make a private recording in Japan for my own viewing, I’m home free, but fansubs are not for private use. So what happens then? We look at 105(2)(b).
…This sucks.
As for Berne, well, fansubs smash Article 8 to bits. But the additions hurt my head.
Oh well.
I AM SICK OF HOLDING THIS LINE.
1. I DO NOT KNOW WHO MADE THIS. PLS TO BE OWNING UP OWNERSHIP PLOX. Also Ketchup Kejax = Chejop Kejak, Kukla = GIANT ASS DRAGON
DIS CLAIMER: I AM NOT A LAWYER NOR AM I TRAINED TO BE A LAWYER NOR AM I A LAW STUDENT NOR AM I A SHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARK.
PLEASE TO NOT BE USING THIS AS LEGAL COUNSEL.
