I love this anime so much I wanted to makea thread for it.Quite a rarity for me lol ^_^
The story doesnt require you to be familiar with the other Macross' as long as you know a few simple facts.Humanity left earth with thier allies the Zentradi dispersing across the galaxy in colonial fleets in search of new worlds(the Zentradi not having a homeworld after deciding to befriend humanity instead of subjugate,and the humans bieng mostly wipedout in the first series),and that the term Macross is tagged to the most titanic of a city ship's fleet which act like a giant variable fighter.A VF bieng a craft that ***** between jet and humanoid robot modes
I like the combat in this series,unlike gundams which the aerial types have a similar ability to go into "jet mode" the VF's also have a halfway mode where they are still in jet mode but have thier arms and legs.Then theres the way they switch in and out of robot mode constantly in a battle and actually fight and move like fightercraft as opposed to the crazy beam sword duals and "rivals" that goes on in a gundam series.Course this is an anime about aliens so of course both sides wouldnt have the same designs for thier weaponry haha
and this felt more like a review then me wanting to make a thread about it....guess i can hopefully get some conversation here :lol:
