Macross Frontier 25: The Insert Song Spam From Hell
I’ve never liked Seikan much, but this part where Sheryl went, “Alto” and he saluted the girls while Seikan was playing then Sheryl saluted him back was kinda cool.
After writing the Schneizel’s Mask post last night, I fixed up the insert songs in Macross F 25 for ChaosShadow. 3hrs, 11 font files, and a billion colors later, the inserts file v1 was done. And just now I went insane and timed all of the “What ’bout my star?” lines that Ranka is singing in the background when Sheryl starts up Lion again. Then I told Chaos, “How ’bout my sensory overload~?” Basically I am severely butthurt from INSERT SONGS and feel like bitching about it. Macross F has really made me come to hate fansub karaoke and fucking songs because there’s so fucking many of them, yet, back in the day, my job for a time was only making karaoke effects. D: Sometimes with Macross, I get these random ideas for karaoke effects even though we’ve downgraded to just softsubbed lyrics and translation. Like I wanted to make hardsubbed Lion karaoke with spinning triangles and particles. Earlier I desired to make rainbow kitty paw Neko Nikki karaoke. Also we’ve been pretty irresponsible with songs in Macross. We never really made a conscious effort to keep “master” song files sitting around, so the “timing” was more like “copy paste from other episodes lolol”.
…in retrospect it might have been fun to pick everything, but god damn, what a pain in the ass. Fuck you Macross.
At least the insert song spam is over.
…until the Macross Frontier movie, that is.
Btw, some release notes in advance: Release will be ~700mb, have dual audio tracks (Stereo & 5.1 upmix), and dual sub tracks (default won’t have any inserts, alt track will have full blown styled sensory overload faggotry on the inserts).
We’ve now made chapters based on when each song plays. God help us.
Everyone please go encourage him to sing JIBUN WO~ too.
