Might not turn out to be perfect, but, with some luck, I can improve them a little.<br/><br/>As for where and how he might best fit in - nope, still no idea. I'm still waiting on a lot of character profiles (or at least drafts) to come in. I'm beginning to form an idea that might work for both of us, but I'll have to sleep on it a night or two.<br/><br/><div class="quoteheader"><div class="topslice_quote"><a href="https://elliquiy.com/forums/index.php?topic=260005.msg12842895#msg12842895">Quote from: pendarious on 15-12-2016, 17:10:22</a></div></div><blockquote class="bbc_standard_quote">What alot of people outside of Japan don't realize is that Nikki Basara isn't actually 7's main character rather Meylene Junius is. Basara doesn't change or grow as a character because he's well set in his ways and he is there to serve mostly to aid Meylene in her growth. True Basara has more of a vantage point and he may wind up saving the day more often than not but it's still not his story. Much like most MACROSS shows it's the development of many of it's characters not exactly all of them that is what make seven so much fun.<br/></blockquote><div class="quotefooter"><div class="botslice_quote"></div></div>I know that Mylene's story is an important part of it all, but Basara is the character who pretty much provides the vantage point for the viewer early in the series. He really isn't the kind of guy to leaves a good first impression, and first impressions can count a lot. And just when I was getting used to him (or getting used to ignoring him) the show introduces Sivil. The Basara/Sivil plot really had the makings of a plot tailor made for a protagonist, and did put a lot of focus on Basara halfway through the series, only for him to come out of it still a jerk in too many ways.  I admit, it's been a while since I watched it, but at least that's how I remember it.
