Macross F Theatrical Version: The False Diva

042-043
Various works are presented in the media that is called "movie".  In becoming a "movie", what is succeeded [inherited], and what becomes new?  From the one's already open to the public to the super topic [subject] of the newest productions... (we've) thuroughly researched the evolutionary system [series, group] of large titles!

Caption: Sheryl Nome: Not only for the live performance(s), but she has come into the Frontier fleet with another purpose.  In addition, on the left is the new costume [clothes] for the live performance(s).  There's a secret also in the point where two Sheryl's are lining up, and...

TV Series -> Theatrical Edition
... A suspected Spy surfaces in the diva

A story which is transformed into the scandal?! of the "fairy of the galaxy".
It's already been one year from the end of the TV series' broadcast.  The opening of the theatrical version draws near, and the voltage in the expectations has also considerably risen.
In the midst of that, in the (movie) preview which was made public in theaters at the same time as this magazine was released, the suspicions that Sheryl is a spy sent into Frontier have been clarified from Ozuma's speech [mouth].
"Because the theme this time is "truth and lies", a mysterious part has been concentrated on her.  The keyward "black and white [monochrome] rabbit" has also been published [announced], and it is a keyword that hints at her dual nature.  As yet, it is still not possible to say in detail, but it [she] has some purposes besides the live performance(s), and it isn't by mistake that she's come into the Frontier. (Director Kawamori Shouji)
Then, naturally, the changes arises in Sheryl's character and story arc.
"In the post recording, Ms. Endo (Aya) said, more than the beginning of the TV series as well, there were a few certain reasons for the growing of the role that came to be done.  The mood has become a little bit more mature, because it is important for the movie version of Sheryl."  (Kawamori)
In addition to this, the mysteries talked about in the TV series, such as "Aimo", "Sheryl's earring" and so on, are clearly defined, and a more mysterious development seems to be expected.  Of course, the scale of the battle scenes are greatly improved, and the new equipment of the VF-25, which is presented on the next page, has a suitable power and feeling of speed for the large screen; thus I hear that an exhilarating feeling has been added to the climactic battle scene.
They have begun to gradually take off the veil from the the new "F" story which has been greatly changed.

Beyond your imaginations
The theatrical version's latest cuts open to the public!

↑Michelle who throws out severe words as a friend to Aruto, Ranka and so on.  Notice in his appearance how he's become firmly like an adult.  →Though there are two shots of nonchalant Aruto and Sheryl, the relationship between the two people has also had a differing variation from the TV series.

→With a sexy bathing scene not in the TV series, as well as her appearance while standing a while [loitering] while in her live performance costume and causing a disruption in Frontier, and so on.  Sheryl, in the theatrical version, seems to be conducting herself in a cuter and more mysterious way.

↑ Grace, who is using Sheryl's live tour as a cover and putting her own plot [conspiracy] into effect.  Though it seems like she's the only villian is unsatisfying...

↑ Aruto, who is flying over the the urban area that was destroyed by the attacking Vajra.  People [everybody] who run about trying to escape the battle that has been carried to more violent [fierce] extremes.  Can Aruto's hand, which is being extended to Sheryl and then Ranka, save them?

↓ Ranka, who is scouted by Erumo [Elmo], in the Island 3 shopping mall Forumo [Folmo].  Even though it is a familiar episode of the TV series, in a new production and drawing, her growth (to adulthood) is depicted.

Hints of new twists which are sprinkled here and there
In the new cuts that have been recently made public, the Vajra attack on Frontier, the appearance of Sheryl who runs about trying to escape the Frontier streets, Aruto and Sheryl in Island 3 and so on, and then the scene where Ranka is scouted have all been drawn.  For the nonchalant [casual] scenes as well, new production [direction] and drawn pictures have been done, and one can guess at what ways the theatrical version has been reborn.  One can guess from Sheryl, who pauses in rubble while in her stage clothes, is more involved in the Vajra attack scene than in the TV series version, and it might be good to guess the whole image of the theatrical version from these scenes.

The post recording of this original version has already ended as well, and it has really been said that the production work is in the last spurt aiming at the theatrical opening.  Until the masterpiece's birth, it has accomplished a little towards the abundant harvest of animated movies that is appropriately the total sum of '09.

After the end of recording... immediately following the reciting of the character voices... the truth of the theatrical version!!

The introduction of new equipment for the VF-25!  What is that wonder's performance?
The new model of strengthening [enhancing] equipment exclusive for the VF-25 that appears in the theatrical version has been made public.  The characteristic rotating beam cannons, which are installed on the back, are reminiscient of the VF-1's strike pack.  The rotary engine pods have achieved a more advanced fighter mobility.  "We've drawn a high manueverability scene that hasn't been (done) until now.  Of course it's possible to transform this Tornado equipment to battroid mode." (Kawamori)
