About two years have passed since the end of the UN-Zentradi conflict and the survivors of its final battle have been rebuilding on Earth as best as they can. A few cities have been rebuilt, the survivors settled, and life goes on for the remnants of humanity and the Zentradi fleets. However not all is [...]

Given the grand scale of the events of episode 27, I felt it would be best to just do a one episode post this week. Preparations began among the Macross-Britai fleet last time as the main Zentradi force began to defold into Sol system, and now the battle begins. All the various resources of the [...]

Big things are happening in the UN and Zentradi forces, changes that will fundamentally alter the nature of the rest of this conflict and the future of the two peoples. Millia tracks down Max to settle her duel, only to have the two of them fall for each other and proceed all ahead full into [...]

Though I fear some eventual subpar episodes as we pass the original 26 episode season mark (apparently the series was extended during its course), we have nothing but more awesome in this week’s episodes. The Zentradi boarding action is still on going at the start of episode 23 and the Zentradi Cult of Minmay for [...]

Ah, this is really a great stretch of episodes lately. Just last week there was the Omni-Directional Barrier overload explosion, Kakizaki’s death to make it feel real, and the Macross being forced to leave Earth. Now much progress is made on the romantic front in the Misa/Hikaru/Minmay/Kaifun conflict and the Zentradi get smart with the [...]

Several members of the crew are still dealing with the death of Roy as the Macross descends to low altitude in an attempt to force the UN HQ to allow the civilians off the ship. While the UN’s intentions aren’t clear, they will not permit the civilians to be offloaded and Global hopes that an [...]

Forgive the delay, I had to spend the last day and a half immersed in an ethnic conflict paper before I could move on to intergalactic conflict. But this week’s episodes were worth the wait. First up we have another recap, but this time done more interestingly and with an actual impact on the larger [...]

Much better than the past two episodes, this week the Global and Misa head to the UN Alaska HQ to make their report and receive the ship’s new orders. The civilian residents of the ship begin celebrating their return to Earth with a carnival celebration while the crew, temporarily under the command of Colonel Maistroff, [...]

Well, I guess these episodes prove even a series as good as Macross stumbles sometimes. Not much content in episode 13, and episode 14 was a recap, but not one of those cool reinventions of the recap that gives you new information or a different character’s perspective. When I finished watching them I noticed I [...]

When we last left the Macross’s recon team they were fighting hand to hand inside a Zentradi ship in an attempt to rescue Misa. Overpowered by Commander Britai’s hand to hand fighting ability, the team puts up a good fight but eventually Hikaru, Kakizaki, and Misa are captured and Max sucked out a hull breach [...]
