A movie about the attempt to make a live action Robotech movie will probably be made before an actual Robotech movie.
-
Macross, internationally, has GOT to be the single most cursed piece of Japanese media. It's simply incredible how Japanese animation is now a worldwide enterprise complete with productions shared between partners globally - but Macross, a foundational piece of animation history, remains lost in a space fold accident.
-
i'm going to listen to this while playing battletech
-
It's a shame Exo Squad didn't become just a little more popular. Loved how serious it was as a kid.
-
Robotech was appointment viewing back in the day. An epic soap opera for kids. 10 years old, I tuned in for the Rick/Min-Mei/Lisa drama first & the space battles, second
-
The fact that we will likely get a live-action Getter Robo movie before Robotech is proof about how badly this has all went down.
-
34:50 I love that you cover the "unseen" since I'm a big fan of BattleTech. That part of the "history/lore" is a sore spot.
-
Great work. Robotech/Battletech confusion always kept me away from trying to untangle it. Now I understand- it was confusing because it was confusing.
-
Robotech is the show that keeps on giving to Secret Galaxy.
-
Just to drive the point home, they should have stitched together a sequence of completely different episodes of Toy/Secret Galaxy and called it one continuous saga.
-
ENTROPY. Definitely entropy. And I was delighted to stay all the way, not just to the end of this video, but I've been here since long before that first episode of this series and look forward to still being here for future Robotech updates!!
-
Your robotech/Macross videos were how I was introduced to you. As a 5 year old in Iran robotech was one of my earliest exposures to anime. Loved the little details compared to cartoons. Censoreship turned a lovestory at the backdrop of a war into a warstory with a vague lovestory weaved inbetween. To this day hearing pineapple salad gives me PTSD of losing a big brother figure. I wasn't ready for Rick's end at that age.

"You see me now a veteran of a thousand copyright wars. My protoculture's spent at last and my Veritech's destroyed." (Thank you, BÖC)
-
You can watch Dan Larson go from fresh-faced recruit to a grizzled, bearded veteran of the Protoculture wars. Seriously guys thanks for digging into the stratums of mud and time to uncover the strange ocean-skipping legal-wriggling history of this series.
-
Robotech was critically important for introducing me to anime in general and Macross specifically. But while I owe it a debt of gratitude for the past, I cannot help but resent it in the present. I STILL don't have blu-rays or an easily streamable SDF Macross, Macross Frontier, or Macross Delta. Get on it guys, or Harmony Gold will still be nothing more than squatters.
-
ENTROPY - I have always been on the FASA side of the argument because it has a better overall story based on the books. We quickly jump to the clans story line but the inner sphere battle was just as interesting. I would love for someone to animate or do a series starting at the beginning of the story. Harmony Gold has broken my heart too many times to trust them.
-
This shows the evolution of the beard, as well as Robotech. Two birds, one stone
-
been loving Robotech since I was a child in the 80s. Love Rick,Minmay,Lisa,Roy and EVERYONE else. The Macross series is the best!!!
-
In truth, I'm not at all interested in a live action version of anything. For me, a new animated series will always be the best alternative. Thanks for the "extra-large" video Dan, and a happy new year for you and all your followers 🎉🎉Greetings from Chile ❤❤❤

29:00 - Thank GOD!! One thing about the books that drove me insane (I know, short trip) was the concept of the Veritech pilots' helmets being key to controlling the mechs, despite nothing ever being said to support that in the show.
