Macross Frontier Fanfics

To the Ends of the Galaxy
This fanfic is set after episode 25 of Macross Frontier.

Frontier Generations
This series follows the events from To the Ends of a Galaxy.  It is written in a slice of life style.

• Wings:  While the colonies of Frontier and Galaxy form the United States of Frontier, Sheryl still has to face her own battles: pilot boot camp.
• Serenade:  Ranka attends Mihoshi's boot camp to test her musical skills.  Little did she know, her relationship with Sheryl would also be tested.

Author's Notes

After watching the last episode of Macross Frontier, I was a bit dissatisfied with the ending.  Alto didn't explicitly choose any of them, although it seemed there were more brownie points in the Sheryl x Alto bucket.  What irked me most was that he said "You are both my wings."  What an unromantic thing to say. 
And because I'm such a Robotech/Macross fan since I was a kid, I rewatched all of it again.  Then the Sheryl x Ranka pairing started to form.

This pairing became more obvious towards the end of the series.  There's more pictures of them holding hands or in compromising positions, especially with the last episode, "Your Sound".

This image is just too suggestive:

1. They're nekkid
2. Holding hands
3. I heard from a japanese friend that when a couple is drawn back to back as shown above, it indicates an intimate relationship

Finally, take a closer look at the picture below.  Where are Ranka's lips?


So I concluded, "Ok, these two need a fic.  Hence, 'To the Ends of the Galaxy' was born.  Three chapters were originally planned, but stuff got added along and it ballooned to 5 chapters.  Gaahh...
Anyway, I hoped you enjoyed reading it.  Thanks for stopping by!

Goodies to buy:

• On The Beach Japanese Tea Cup  * Note the it says Sheryl Nome X Ranka Lee.  They're paired on this tea cup.  :3
  
• Japanese Tea Cup  Alto has a tea cup.  Klan has a tea cup too.  But Sheryl and Ranka are together in two different tea cups.  I guess they come as a set. (^-^)
• Desktop Clock   BTW, Alto is paired with Brera on another desktop clock.
  
• Dakimakura or pillowcases
  
• OST 1 on Amazon japan.   
  
• Note: to view the page in English, look at the right hand side for the "Click here to see in English." link.  For the japanese text that's not translated, try translate.google.com.  It's not accurate, but gives you an idea.
  
• Lion by May'n (Single) 
  
• Vocal Collection - I recommed this over getting the singles and the OSTs because you get most of the songs and it's cheaper than buying OST 1 & 2.  Plus, it comes with a 32 page booklet with lyrics.  Beware of fakes at anime cons!  It's a fake when the case is only 1 CD case thick.  The Vocal collection is 2 CD cases thick.  Cons charge about $10 less than the original, so you might as well get the real one.
• Memories Fanbook 
  
• Novel vol. 4 
  

Games

• The Zentraedi Headquarters - a mostly japanese site, but has some english.  Check out the Games section for some flash games.
• A DOS-based veritech flight simulator.  Note:  the game defaults to Joystick.  Read vvfs.doc and configure for joystick or keyboard.
  
• Gameboy-based Macross game with Minmei hitting the gong for you!  You can play it online, but the reponse is better if you get the rom and the emulator.
  
• YSFlight - A free flight simulator.  This is easier to use than the veritech flight simulator and has a lot of demos of aerial maneuvers.
• Macross addon for YSFlight by M812 - unzip and move the User folder to the YSFlight directory.  Move the contents of the aircraft folder to YSFLIGHT\aircraft.  The Macross aircraft are listed under VF-xx.  Enjoy! 
  
• Veritech Ace 2 - a neat flash game!  Controls are a bit difficult though...
