Oct. 19th, 2013 01:36 pmMemory: "Just a kiss" (Birdhuman filming and premiere; Episode 10)
Day won: 292
Game runner: Dorian
Form: Foil-wrapped lips
( It’s not a big deal. It’s just a kiss. )
+ The movie that they’re filming is actually an in-universe production of the real-world OVA Macross Zero. As much as I love Macross Zero, I can’t be assed to watch it right now, so here is the rundown: a deserted alien ship crashes on Earth, causing a global war between an attempted worldwide union and people who don’t want to join it – the “UN Wars” (yes that’s UN like United Nations). The movie takes place in 2008, following a UN pilot named Shin Kudo. Ambushed by one of the first transforming jets, he crash lands on the remote Mayan Island. There he meets Sara and Mao Nome, the last of a long line of island priests/priestesses with a weird connection to this underwater alien space ship/living thing?/who knows/protoculture called the “Birdhuman.” There’s a love triangle between Shin and the sisters. Both sides of the conflict are drawn to Mayan Island to try and take control of the Birdhuman. In the final battle, Sara sort of assimilates with the Birdhuman and it looks like maybe the Birdhuman is about to destroy Earth because humanity isn’t ready for spaceflight and might take war to the stars, but Sara something something makes the Birdhuman teleport away in a burst of blue light, saving the world. Shin’s plane is about to crash into the ocean, but all of a sudden he hears Sara and the Mayans’ song, her spectral hands fold over his, and his jet is surrounded by blue light and zooms straight up into the sky and disappears.
+ Sheryl apparently never goes “huh those chicks have the same last name as me.” (Mao is her grandmother, which she doesn’t know in TV continuity, but does in movie continuity.)
+ Oh god all the Alto tsun. Oh god Ranka is a romantic rival isn’t she. Oh god Alto you’re so cute. Tsun tsun dere dere dere dere.
+ Songs remembered: Gira Gira Summer (I shit you not, apparently this is the song Sheryl originally wrote for Sara because she zoned out in the planning meeting and just heard “tropical island”), the full version of Aimo ~Tori no Hito~.
