I'm speechless

Truly, it was breathe taking. The smoke effects were incredible, the motion, the sounds. It was truly one of the most amazing things I've seen reguarding Macross since Shadow Chronicles.

Well done.

In general, this was well done. Classic sound effects and soundtrack were used well. The voice acting was a bit sub-par at moments, but that can't detract too much. The ending was a bit sudden. But again, this was done in Flash, so I can't knock it too much for that. Good work, I hope to see more.

Aaaah nice one

That brings back a lot of memories.
Great work

Nice work

Glad to have been a part of this... nice work, look forward to working with you again...

Oh BTW to the guy below me... My computer runs this flash just fine... so see my machine coz it runs it smoothly

Great Effects, Beautiful Art, Average Animation

First off, I'd love to see the machine that can run this video smoothly. The animation was, in most places, pretty sub-par, but the effects and artistry were stunning. I've never seen someone draw fog quite as accurately as you have in this video, and I fear I'll never get my head around drawing mechs. The explosions and... oh hell, just about everything was executed with extreme finesse and artistry. I almost dropped my jaw when I saw the fog and sunbeams, but cringed when I saw the animation.
So, what really stood out for me was the effects. The story... meh, I was never a big Macross fan, but I'm not a hater. I respect it deeply as a good show that opened up very many doors as far as anime goes. In this video, the animation was, alas, motion-tweened bits and pieces. There's a way to do it so it looks good, (Tomorrow's Nobodies comes irresistibly to mind,) and you were ALMOST there. But that aside, the effects were just awesome. You've got amazing artistic talent; that much is obvious from the wonderful backgrounds, but though doing frame-by-frame animation for the characters would have probably significantly lengthened production time, I think it would have been wise.
Also, the downside to all those awesome effects is that most computers chew on them like frozen caramel - even on the lowest graphics setting, it lagged in most places, and believe me when I say my machine isn't too shabby. I'm sure I'll never know why it's so hard for most computers to run graphic-intensive Flash movies while being able to run games like Half-Life at a good framerate. Oh well, that isn't your failing. I'd just love to see the machine that could run this movie smoothly, as I said earlier.
Onto the judgin':

Graphics - Great effects, beautiful art, average animation. - 9
Style - Hey, it's old-school anime, man! Can't go wrong! - 10
Sound - Good, but could have been a bit better, methinks. - 8
Violence - Explosions and stuff, but no blood or gore (that's good). - 5
Interactivity - Extra points for the expanded menu. - 4
Humor - I don't think this movie was intended for comedic effect. - 0
Overall - Amazing eye-candy, but animation was a glaring defect. - 8

I understand and appreciate the amount of work that went into this, and I give you due props for it. This movie is certainly in the top 5% of movies on Newgrounds. Pat yourself on the back, if you haven't already, but know that there is definitely room for improvement. I look forward to your future work!
