I will be the pattern of all patience; I will say nothing.

Spent a whole day watching Macross Frontier. I love the animation! Also I finally understand KF’s fascination to those Valkyries. Then we started on the SDF Macross* series, and man, it’s a throwback in time!

Anyway I found the traditional formula to successful Japanese dramas!

1. Androgynous male protagonists
2. Love triangle
3. Lame-ass male with the unenviable task of choosing between two chicks and the lack of a spine rendering him unable to even try
4. The shy cute chick
5. The demure go-getter chick

The newer dramas are a little more quirky and less formulaic. Those are less predictable, blah. Anyway.

* Super Dimension Fortress. I just had to put that in to look all Macross geeky and cool.
