Since Macross Delta isn't actually airing proper until April I don't feel the show itself needs a thread yet tho general Macross threads have gone over well enough in the past.

Seriously, April? Yeah, a thread for Delta now would just be rather negative, then die.

to fully appreciate macross you must have a fundamental understanding of the lynn minmay mythos that can only be attained by watching SDF macross in both its original japanese AND the new english dub with mari ijima and also do you remember love

honestly that fucks with people even more than morally abhorrent people, because if a character's a monster they can just say so but if a character's a generally good person who makes some mistakes/has some major flaws people can't comprehend it

i like unequivocally nice people in fiction a lot, especially in settings where that outlook is constantly tested, but i think on average flawed characters are waaaaaay more interesting

like i always assumed that was a universal sentiment too, like the jerk with a heart of gold is usually the more popular character in a movie, but i guess not

There's difference between a "jerk" who's actually a really cool dude like Han Solo, and the Macross Plus characters, who are more flat-out unpleasant people.

For the most part it is the universal sentiment. We're just on an internet forum.
