The music in the orginal is much better imo. Frontier didn't have a single song which I liked while I have several of SDF Macross on my PC.

Not even the throwback song?

Nope, the voice isn't nearly as good.

Also, Ranka has bad teeth.

I watched it Railgun -> Index -> Index 2 because someone in here made it sound like Railgun was the mainstory and Index the sidestory. Big mistake. Unless you don't care about Index at all in which case it's all right I guess.

Proper order is: Index -> Railgun -> Index 2 -> Railgun S

Shes decent, but she always just seemed like a lesser version of Nana, to me. Fukuyama is my favorite 'Macross' vocalist.

Finished watching original Macross. I did not expect the ending tbh. Figured they'll do what Frontier did but guess not. Enjoyed it though and can't wait to see the other series to see how they tie in with the original. I didn't expect them to go all the way to the end with the indecisiveness though. + Show Spoiler +
I figured Minmay was going to end up being his future wife or something but I can see why that can't be the case. At least Misa got her wish lol. I did feel that they stretched it a bit much though. Maybe 2-3 episode before the ending, they should've had him decided but not a deal breaker
. Liked the whole protoculture aspect and the songs got better and there were more of them towards the end. Onwards to 7, plus and zero! :D

hmm it says that it was originally alternative storyline but that eventually it became part of the Macross universe. What changed? lol.

The storyline of the film does not fit directly into the Macross chronology, and was originally an alternate-universe retelling of the story, but was later established as part of the Macross universe.

There is Macross 2 as well. Its considered non-canon since Kawamori didn't make it, and as such gets a lot of undeserved (IMO) hate from Macross fans. But I enjoyed it, its fairly short and worth a watch.

'Do You Remember Love' is also mandatory.

It's (mostly) the plot of the original in a shorter time plus some liberties and a couple deviations. Beautiful animation. Excellent choreography. It's everything I ever wanted out of Macross.

Canon-wise, DYRL is supposed to be a movie that is popular in the Macross universe or something.

Yeah, they refer to DYRL as a 'movie' in Macross 7 iirc.

hmm well, I'll take a look at the movie(s) if they are considered cannon then. I'm not a fan of non-canon stuff although if it's worth it then I might consider it. ya, saw that in Macross 7 description and that it's a popular movie in the Macross universe.

Do you really care about "canon"? IDK why anyone would care about such a triviality.

Macross frontier is amazing, it is basically a huge jpop MV (music video) that lasts for many hours. Basically. And oh my queen is in it too....

I'd rather stick to what the original creator envisioned. To me, the anime/movie is an expression of his/her story so watching movies not handled by him/her could mean a deviation from that storyline he had in mind. If he gave it a thumbs up and says it fits into the macross universe then I'm more interested in watching it. I guess a common example is GT. I watched it but didn't like it and don't consider it canon either.

why do you think "non-canon" means "not handled by the original creators"?
