It makes me a bit sad that I am the first person writing a review for this anime here, yet it makes me glad to have this chance to spread the word about how good this show is. Macross aka The Super Dimension Fortress Macross was released in 1984 (I'm showing a bit of my age here. I saw it when I was a kid in the late 80's). This show has it all action, drama, romance(love triangle), mecha, science fiction and an amazing soundtrack. I believe this anime will still hold up in terms of story telling and action to this day even though the look of the show is understandably outdated. You cant really compare it to how animes are drawn and presented these days but if you give it a try you wont regret it. This is THE anime that introduced me to the world of anime and I never looked back since. (show less)
