watch the original, then DYRL, then the
Plus OVA, then go nuts


also my cool aunt, Mari Ijima, is performing at The Novo in DTLA tonight for a AX-adjacent event. if i knew my gf was going on a girl’s trip this weekend more than a week out, i would have gone :(

macross shows are pretty standalone tbh, it doesn't really matter what you watch although all the ones worth watching are in chronological order and every character knows what happened before their show because they have also watched those animes. DYRL for example is, a movie in the fiction of macross that everyone has seen and models their life on. the compilation movie for macross 7 is, the characters from frontier discovering a stash of macross 7 VHSes.

but youre not actually going to miss out on anything because the events of the previous show never matters too much, its just a cultural thing that all the characters know about and refer to sometimes, with the exception of one plot point in macross delta.

not going to lie though, that three of the hypest moments in macross are, mylene filming the lynn minmay documentary, ranka filming the movie version of macross zero, and That Scene in delta, that don't really hit if you arent fully a macross weirdo

SDF is honestly an incredible show. It's Top Gun before Top Gun. It's one of the first really successful idol anime. It's a show in which a mech dresses up in a trench coat so it can pretend to be a giant person

Shoegaze is when a guitar goes through an effects pedal and sounds like "Vvvvvvv". Thanks for all da recs!

the genre name comes from the fact that the bands would perform with huge arrays of distortion and effects pedals on stage and spend the whole time looking down at them
