Macross / Robotech

Yack, Deculture! Since mankind was catapulted into the stars aboard the battleship SDF-1 Macross, there have been three constants in human-extraterrestrial relations: transforming robot jet fighters, love triangles, and pop music. And sometimes the transforming fighters even play the music themselves! The Macross saga spans generations as humanity spreads throughout the universe, bringing the power of art and culture with them. With its inclusion as the most popular part of the syndicated TV series Robotech, the original Macross played an important role in growing anime fandom internationally in the 1980s.
