My all-time favorite is Macross Plus; the YF-19 is just my dream aircraft. The characters are all enjoyable (except maybe Myung - she's too whiny and indecisive for my tastes), the animation was exceptional for the time, and the music is, two words: Yoko Kanno. What more could you ask for?
Macross Zero was a nice detour to the past and I thank Kawamori for it but the whole "bird-human"/Shin sucking so much it hurt crap really brought the show down. Roy's entanglements with his old mentor and his mentor's new protege' were some amazing bits, the animation is SUPERB, and the CG fighting is great. The soundtrack is VERY repetitive and if it weren't for the efw vocal songs it'd be worthless. Macross II was crap. The G-Saviour of the Macross Universe. I remember watching the english dub of the Movie version and thinking "Damn, Hibiki Kanzaki is a pussy...." every time he screamed or gave some lame-ass dailogue. His last monologue while in prison was particularly sappy, contrite, and annoying. The only thing that I like in the movie was Feff and his incessant use of profanity. A+ cursing in Marduk. Macross Do You Remember Love was ok. Lots of Max and Miriya is always good. But that's it. Original Macross (AKA Super Dimesional Fortress Macross) was, and still is, the badd-ass grand-daddy of space dramas. I love watching it despite the dated animation and the HORRENDOUS Lynn Minmay music. How ya doing, buddy? |

Oh, I forgot Macross 7. Sadly, I watched it as a joke. And ENJOYED it. Immensely. I absolutely think Nekki is the most entertaining of all the male macross leads; he tries os hard to be an anti-hero he becomes the people's hero in a wierd twist. Of course I do wish the Fire Valkyrie was in someone else's hands (Miriya in VF-19 Kai would be something to see).
And about Lynn Minmay, I was born in '85 and I still love *some* 80s much, just not hers. Other animes from the 80s had hot music; Gundam 0083 for example has such great music or the Transformers Movie 1. The theme from SDF Macross was really good in a campy way; a deep Japanese male voice saying, "MA - CO - ROSS!" Hilarity in it's best form. There's nowhere I can't reach. |
