  • I’m pretty sure they think of the person taking care of them as some analogous of a mother. We should be careful not to anthropomorphism their emotions as they are probably not quite as complex as we would like. They certainly have some degree of emotions though.

    But they have no concept of “human” or “mother” so I would guess it is more like “thing stops hunger, thing warm, thing safe”. Thus they bother you when they are hungry, sit on you when they are cold and come to you when they are afraid.





  • The plot of the Blame! movie is almost non-existence in the manga. Some elements of it are in there for sure, but I would not consider it even attempting to adapt the manga. But at the same time it doesn’t really matter due to the nature of the manga. Which is basically Killy going on an adventure over an indeterminate extremely long period of time across an indeterminate seemingly infinite distance. Since his adventure is basically endless the events of the movie could conceivably happen at any point in the manga.

    So the only problem with the movie is that it ends. Which means you don’t really understand how endless his journey is.

    I’ve also just never seen Macross. The art always looked beautiful, but I’ve never picked it up because I didn’t understand the concept of the singing in a sci fi setting. I’m sure I would enjoy it whatever is going on, but I’ve had endless other things to watch and read.
