Robotech: Symphony of Light, 1987, Jack McKinney
“And then all the bad guys turned into hippie lights and flew away, the end.”

Yes, it is safe to say that I did find the ending somewhat anticlimactic.

Robotech: Metamorphosis, 1987, Jack McKinney
It’s a shame that Genesis Climber MOSPEADA got cut down so heavily to fit into the Robotech storyline, as I think it’s the best of the three stories.
That it lacks Minmei or Dana helps with that, certainly.

Robotech: Invid Invasion, 1987, Jack McKinney
I’m still more than a little boggled that, in the mid-80s, they were able to get Yellow Dancer on tv.

Robotech: The Final Nightmare, 1987, Jack McKinney
We may need to face the fact that “Southern Cross” is just fundamentally unlikeable.

Robotech: Metal Fire, 1987, Jack McKinney
Actually, it is remotely possible that Zor is a more unlikeable character than Dana.

Robotech: Southern Cross, 1987, Jack McKinney
There is no character in the history of animation as unlikeable as Dana Sterling.

Robotech: Doomsday, 1987, Jack McKinney

After all this time, I still miss you most of all, Bridge Bunnies…

Robotech: Force of Arms, 1987, Jack McKinney
Even today I have a hard time buying the Rick/Minmei/Lisa love triangle. Mostly because they’re all pretty equally horrible people.

Robotech: Battlehymn, 1987, Jack McKinney
The Super Dimensional Fortress Macross portion of Robotech takes place in 2011-2012.
Robotech takes place in the present.

Robotech: Homecoming, 1987, Jack McKinney
I hadn’t really been following the cartoon that closely until Roy Fokker died. Having gotten used to adventure shows where no one was ever hurt and all problems were resolved within 30 minutes, the permanent and lasting death of a major character, and one I actually liked at that, made me pay more attention to the show.
