Oh yes..and Zero while visually strong at points, is negligible at best.More of a commercial for Kawamori-san’s unique world view than anything else.(see Arjuna & Aquarion for more proof of that oddness)

Growing up an avid Macross fan since the early days, the memories of the original series & movie are still as vivid as when I first watched them in the 80s. By far, my favorites are still the originals, followed by Plus which really deserves some more special mention(watch the feature version following the flawed OAV ending, seriously, do yourself that favor at least).Frontier for me so far feels nothing more than a well done greatest hits compilation. I’m still very much addicted to it, but it no way repeats the classic vibe given off by these two seminal pieces of the Macrossverse.

And yes..Macross II is pretty painful..and screw it..I like 7 if only for the wacky music & goofier premise!(aliens? lets sing at em!!)

I did the exact same thing over the last few weeks. I really enjoyed SDF Macross (I think it’s the best so far), liked the movie and Plus, and got completely turned off by Macross 7. I’m only about 10 episodes in and I just can’t stand to watch anymore. I’m currently getting caught up on Frontier instead, since I realized there really isn’t an “ongoing” Macross continuity. Also need to go watch Macross Zero…

I have to thank you for posting this, otherwise I would not have watched (well, up to ep26 now) the truly epic gem that is SDF Macross. I had previously only watched Macross Plus, which I thought was quite good, but I have been blown away by this series. And yeah, it’s also nice to fanboy over it (like the fact that both episode 2 in the original and F have the protaganist saving the girl). :P

Macross 7 is a Total piece of crap, yep i agree with you.

i liked zero for the connections drawn between life and music, and the amazing dogfights.

plus was great in visuals, but its story is so disconnected from the macross universe that i wasn’t drawn into it. The tech is there, and that’s about it.

I found Macross 7 to be a better show than the original. Even though the main character, Basara did piss me off for a while with his non fighting attitude, I liked him later as he did actually start to get through to people. The music in it is also pretty good, and so is the OVA sequel.

Nice overview. Besides Frontier, I have only seen Macross Plus so far – very long time ago, but definitely want to check out some of the others you mentioned.

Watch robotech (the American bastardization)

It has a better continuity even if it combines three different shows.
