  • macrosshit!!!!!!

  • (runner, song from Macross)  /watch?v=Oh_EJHDOPUc

  • @Ganer123456 Minmei went missing along with Misa and Hikaru on the Megaroad

  • Love Macross except for Macross 7. They seriously screwed up trying to take it in a direction that was so weird. Let's pilot transforming mechs with guitars.... riiiight.

  • Who ever disliked the video has no taste in art.

  • I don't understand why there are still some fellas keep mixing up the original Macross saga with other Macross canons like Macross Frontier, SDF Macross DYRL? and worse still the unrelated story canon Robotech. Please... check with wikipedia so as to get the facts straight. If u need to check the animes, I recommend u download them via BAKABT website. They have high-quality torrents mostly about these animes. It will help u alot. :Doh yeah, don't forget to seed accordingly too.

  • I really want to know where is Lin Minmey T_T

  • n now Macross Frontier?

  • @tearsangelz the gayest macross after the gaydams

  • why the hell am i watching this?

    i mean dun get me wrong Macross is fan freaking tastic love it...but i'm watching the ENTIRE macross series starting from SDF macross 1982 currently on Macross Plus 1994 so yeah i kinda already know the entire timeline already..erm maybe i'm watching this becuase this video is also freaking good man i sure hope like Gundam, Macross wil continue on for more then 30 years what is it now 29 years lol wow29 years still awsome keep singing Macross

    macross plus

    watch?v=hCEpsGlHl1I

  • macross zero shown the the ugly side of humanity, doing whatever it takes to accomplish a goal, even to sacrificing many lives.

  • I can't believe I just barely found out what SDF stood for today!

  • @skyhime super dimensional fortress i think :\

  • @legonakonow This video was made before Frontier was even thought up.

  • @legonakonow : You are Epic Fail

    Hello idiot. I really wish people like you would expand and READ the description I typed about the Video...

    What part of "PRE-MACROSS ZERO DOCUMENTRY" did you not understand?

    Kawamori hadn't even imagined RANKA and ALTO yet...

    BTW - Please keep the negative comments down about RT vs M. This is supposed to be an OLD educational vid, not a platform for M or RT wankers.

    As for me, I love both EQUALLY! RIP Carl Macek! But for now, let Basara Rock On!

  • @legonakonow This was uploaded in 2006....so how couild there be Frontier?

  • Macross = AWESOME! nuff said.

  • whats with a few people knocking on macross zero , it was the prequel to macross i like it very much good fighting scenes , good graphics , didnt like macross 7 too noisy for my taste . im 33 i still get all choked up whenever i see the macross series , macross plus was good as well , frontier was alright not bad , good graphics , good story line . but i felt it was more for a new generation , since im all grown up now i stick with the classics you know but i dont hate frontier i like it.

  • @memoranda1 I agree totally - I don't understand this love for 7 and indifference to Zero... I kept on hoping Basara would get shot down rather than going off to strum a guitar in a forest. And the songs were rubbish compared to every other Macross franchise.

  • bakemono desu! shoji is the shit. he made cowboy bebop;

  • Macross PLUS is more like a fill in for future Macross VF,

    and it is part of Macross, time line is not far from Macross 2, Few years after the success launch of Misa's fleet. not far before Macross 7,

    and i hate how Harmony Gay rape this anime, Macross is not Robotech.

  • @yuri142 I thought Macross 2 was now retconned as being a completely separate timeline (like DYRL's timeline or similar)

  • found the macross ive hunted for years!

  • Wow, sound effects and tones mixed-in with the rock music at 06:21 onwards is straight ripped from [Battel Fairy] Yukikaze's aircraft audio warning and system cues indicators.

    Hah, Busted! It's not even synched to the action, but I know exactly where they're used in that other series. Warning beeps, after-burners engaged low tone, etc.

  • @RingSight91 Does anyone know the name of this music?

  • @Cleric775 The opener is the iconic "Xiao3 Bai2 Long2" (Little White Dragon; Chinese), then after it is "Ai Oboete Imasu Ka" (Do You Remember Love). Not entirely familiar with the later series' soundtracks.

  • en españolllll jajajjajaj

  • I wish there was less robotech hate. I did grew up watching it and it got me interested in Macross , The reason they was put to together was because of a syndicated policy. I did watch Macross plus and Macross II.

  • easy to hate when you see how the producers of robotech tried to hi jack Macross.and give no credit and change up the true meaning of the series.MAIN DIFFERENCE PROTOCULTRUE IS AN ADVANCED CULTURE IN MACROSS IN robotech there flowers.....and Macross always has something to do with culture and finding a better solution to ending conflicts.robotechs answer just breeds more hate realistically

  • @179107199999

    Taksunoko production is shows on the Robotech opening credits

  • @Neoguest

    Tatsunoko only produced it.They didn't create it.That goes to Studio Nue.

  • @Neoguest

    Macross II isn't real Macross neither (w/o Shōji Kawamori) The rest (7, Plus, Zero, Frontier) rules!

  • @hsieh811 Thought Plus was the official sequel to Macross?

  • love macross zero . it had a good story and had some of the best dogfights since the flim .

  • thank you very muuuch ! :))

  • @qwertdfsf7 Well you cant just base your answer on your mere opinion... If you consider it crap, then you might as well consider classical music crap. Macross Zero was good in the sense that it explained the origins of the series and it blended anthropological elements with developing robotechnology.. Besides it has one of the best soundtracks of the whole macross universe. Not that I discredit Macross Frontier I love it but you should respect every episode in the Macross Continoum....

  • @arkkor001 Totally agreed, I like zero alot cause it was different from other macross. Of course it has it flaws.

  • @arkkor001

    I like Zero because Focker is back, and I always prefer the older version of VFs

  • Agree with you pal. Kawamori and company gave us all what we wanted with Frontier. And zero sucks.

  • @qwertdfsf7 you speak the truth. If take away zero graphics and only focus on the story, it was junk. Frontier on the other hand is better than robotech storywise. And i think Robotech is better than Macross.

  • lol macross frontier replays macross zeros scene.

  • nothing of new. macross 7 shoot remake of Macross: DYRL ^^

  • mobius1aic said: "Wasn't Minmei half Chinese?"

    Yes, her father is a Chinese.

    Her family name "Linn/Ling" is a Chinese name.

    And we read her first name "Minmei/Mingmei" is "Akemi" in Japanese.

    Just for the record, Ching, Chang, Chong, Cheng, Wang, Lee, etc. are Chinese names.

    They aren't Japanese names, but most People around the world don't know about it.

  • Comment removed

  • WOW!! this rlly help me to clarified somethings specially about Macross II and Macross 7 stories. thanks for the video!!

  • sorry for striking thee down but Mari Ijima,Tomoyo Sato,Mika Kaneko,Hiroko Kasahara, May'n,Megumi Nakajima and Yoshiki Fukuyama all are greater than her.but then that's Macross.

  • Where`s macros Frotier?? 0.0

  • It's with 2002.

  • I'm a grown 31 year old man, who as a kid I loved Macross/Robotech more than anything. I still get a bit choked up when I watch the Do You Remember Love movie, during the final battle and the song is playing.

  • MACROSS is AWESOME! The classic tv, DYRL, Flashback, Plus all are required viewing!

    MACROSS FTW!!!

  • Such a great series, though I was disappointed with Macross Zero. And against a lot of Macross Fans criticism I actually Like Macross 7 A lot. Frontier was cool too, but we need more Macross like the first or like Plus.

  • That's incredible!

  • Deculture!

  • nice man..

  • when i see the macross plus opening i get the chills. macross plus is insane!!!

  • Macross Plus was the shit and always will be my favorite.

  • I love the way you conmomerate the aniversary of Macross. I have been a fan since 1984... Yes! a long time ago, but I still love all the drama.

    Gracias

    Mexico loves Macross

  • Shoji Kawamori should sue Harmony Gay's ass. All the way to the stone age.

  • Wouldn't happen

  • @wazzonah without Harmony Gold, it is very unlikely that Anime would have caught on in the West the way it has. Harmony Gold was very influential in the early/mid 80s. Robotech may be a patchwork of three different Anime stories, and it may be extremely cheesey now....but, it helped spark interest in the genre here. So give credit where credit is due. Shoji Kawamori encountered success beyond his imagination thanks to Harmony Gold and its efforts to bring Anime to the United States.

  • @redbyrd2 Harmony Gold can go fuck itself. They are nothing but thief.

  • @redbyrd2

    All the Macross series after Macross Plus were released only in Japan. Besides, before Robotech there was Star Blazer, Astro Boy, Candy Candy and several other shows all over the world, unrelated to Harmony Gold.

  • @sanjurosama The issue here is that Harmony Gold made several sequels of Robotech instead of dubbing the rest of the Macross series.

  • @wazzonah

    Well said mate. Robotech is an abomination.

  • MACROSS FOR THE WIN!

  • @wazzonah the best for me is macross frontier

  • In the Harmony gold version called robotech they make "Shao Pai Long" into "Chao my love" lol

  • So this video was made before the frontier in 08?

  • Yes.

  • whats the name of that song that starts from at 0:08?

    it rlly brings back memories 12 years ago when i saw this anime x_x

  • Linn Minmei - Shao Pai Long (eng. Little white dragon)

  • tnk you so much

  • In Chinese

  • Japanese actually

  • Shadowisdead-くんは日本語お話しますか?No, I didn't think so.

    "Shao Pai Long" is Chinese, NOT "Japanese actually". You don't know what you are talking about.

  • ooookay....first, who is shao Pai Long? And second, to me it sounded like japanese (picked up the odd word or two :P and they sounded japanese to moi) Just seems weird for a Jpanese anime to have a chinese bloke talking about it...

  • Dude.... have you watched the original Macross series?

    Minmei is Chinese. Her family immigrated to Yokohama where they ran a Chinese restaurant when the whole SDF thing happened in 1999.

    The song is in Japanese except for the title and main part of the chorus, "Shao Pai Long". It means "little white dragon." If it was in Japanese, it would be something like "chisai shiro ryu".

  • Lol well actually no, I have only ever watched Macross 7, Dynamite and Encore, so I dont really know much bout the first series. Sorry, I thought u was talking bout the language they was speaking, and was just bein anal :P my bad

  • I was talking about the language. "Shao pai long" was the language in question and what I was giving reference to.

    I was also being anal. It's fun!

    BTW, at least watch the "Do you Remember Love?" movie so you can get the main gist of Macross. Macross 7 *barely* touches on it in just one episode.

  • Yeah i do want to watch the first series, but i havent got the money to splash out, and i dont really want to watch it on youtube :P

    And hurray for analness (cos that didnt sound wrong!)

  • Well, either import it or download it from bit torrent. I don't really recommend getting a version from Harmony Gold, because... well, they suck.

  • Probably some form of Chinese? Wasn't Minmei half Chinese?

  • Yup.

  • This needs an update with Macross Zero and Macross Frontier.

  • 6:12

    Where can I find an awesome AMV scene like this?

    What's the name of this music?

    Quite cool with the UN Spacy and the heart.

  • Do you remember Love?

  • do your remember the storyline to macross zero? because i am a big fan of macross since the 90s.

    p.s. do you remember love, i have never seen, and i tried to watch it on youtube but its in spanish. if you have a copy of macross do you remember love can you post the whole movie on youtube? thanks. also the people that made macross need to give us macross for the sega saturn, i have to tell you it looks awesome. thanks

  • Dude, you're a big fan and u can't get DYRL?

  • i thought that DYRL was never officially released, and that you can only find them either online or at a japanese mall. i thought it was never released in america. so far i have not seen macross the movie anywhere. i tried to rent it at blockbuster but they did not have it. the only time i saw it was when hollywood video in florida was still open. i did not notice it untill i called them and they said they had it , i rented it and it had deep scraches on it.

  • i wish hollywood video was still opened but here in florida, there are no hollywood videos because they went out of business. basically i am having trouble finding it. i am sorry, i mean i was a big fan since robotech. to be honest i watch some of the series but those were at my friends house, however i don't collect i just watch. sorry.

  • veoh*com/search/videos/q/macro­ss+do+you#watch%3Dv927709q8KQS­eeA - Download Videos (before install Veoh Web Player). DYRL is too good, so it's bad watching this on Youtube.

  • delete space with link

  • ah this is useful, lol i wasn't even born when macross came out.

    Finally understood some of stuff shown in macross frontier now

  • Yeah i personally like Macross plus the best just cuase it makes a little more sense^^ and the song "voices" ....i hear it everytime i go flying. XD

  • Could anyone tell me the name of the song which starts at 2:57 (the part with the windmills)?

    Thanks in advance!

  • Voices(japanese)

  • (continued) besides, I've seen some of the new Macross and I have to be honest...they can't compare with the first...and Macross 7 made me want to vomit over and over again...forgive me fans of that, I just couldn't stand it...and apologies if I offended anyone, just speaking my opinion...*sigh* here comes the bashing...

  • THat maybe true to you, but other will will enjoy the expanded universe. You don't have to like it all. I know I enjoyed the story in term of what the UNS is doing and ships, mecha etc. Even in a million year I probably never will watch macross 7. (don't like basara)I'd like to see how the macross world expand anyway.

  • I understand, thank you for sharing your thoughts and for the reply! :)

  • macross plus was the best

  • Man Im confused. Is the first part of robotech and the original macross the same set of episodes? Or did macross have more to it? I only have the robotech remastered box set to go by as I bought it randomly and enjoyed the show. If I were to buy the macross box set, would I be seeing the same thing as the first set of episodes in the robotech box set? Or is there any differances? Im confused to hell but curious to.

  • like theOtherSteel say and like u say, only the first part of robotech and macross where the same, then that guy "Jack McKinney" and others fuck up the story of macross and try to create something but of course thats story line doesnt work at all, thats why only the first part of robotech has some meaning.

  • Robotech: Sentinels was a Harmony Gold production that fell through and remains permanently imcomplete.

    It is a part of Robotech, not a part of Macross.

    Robotech is a new script overwriting the stories of Macross, Southern Cross, and Genesis Climber Mospeda into one giant series.

    A series of Robotch books was written unde the psuedonym Jack McKinney, and it wrote out the Sentinels storyline.

    Robotech: Shadow Chronicles picks that storyline, but not exactly. (Oops, ran out of space.)

  • im so confused with this anime

    iv seen almost of the series

    and the other day i was watching robotech 2 the sentinels

    and im like wtf doesnt max become the captain of the battle 7

    wen does he like go there cuz he leaves earth on the sdf-3 its so confusing

    oh there r actually 2 max's

    max jenius and max sterling

    idk y the hell they did this

    but yeh im completely confused about continuity

  • I'll try to sort this out.

    Robotech (the original series) is basically 3 anime series edited into one show: Macross, Mospeada, and Southern Cross. Harmony Gold basically crafted a new story around those three shows (using Macross as the basis, but even making a few changes in Macross as well).

    Then Harmony Gold tried to create their own original show, RObotech II Robotech II, which was made for the US and not Japan, is basically a continuation of this new story crafted by Harmony Gold.

  • (continued from before) So Robotech II has really nothing to do with the original Macross- it's more like Harmony Gold's continuation of THEIR version of the Macross story, not the original Japanese Macross.

    Macross 7, Macross Plus, and now Macross Frontier ARE continuations of the original Japanese Macross series. Macross Zero is a PREQUEL to the original Japanese Macross series. (And Macross II no longer exists in the official Macross chronology).

  • makes sense man

    thx

  • i saw everyone of them... and I must say M Zero had the best music no doubt and M7 had waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa­aaay too much repeating of the songs...

  • yooo nekki basara is my guitar hero

    but yeh ur right the songs kept repeating

    did u c the new series macross F

    they did like a movie of m zero in the show

  • oh god I was so sad that they chose to end it with only 25 episodes since its a 25-year thing... I kinda thought that there was too much buildup and it was resolved in like 3 episodes or something... sorta disappointed there

  • I really have to find another copy of Macross: Ai oboeteimasuka, since my VHS tape gave up the ghost.

  • I was given Macross Plus on DVD by a friend ( the episodes and the film) and that sparked my interest for Macross. I don't think the Macross Plus film is really worth watching, the episodes are better and the english dub is terrible!

  • I liked some of the additional/extended scenes in the Macross Plus movie, but the OVA has more overall, the Movie is more than just a condensed version of the OVA however, personally I felt both are most certainly worth watching.

  • It really depends on how you perceive Macross as a whole. Some people may not get it's deeper themes and see it as simply a Mecha anime (I know I did the first couple of times).

  • could you reitorate some more?

  • too many macros , but i think the the best is do you remembe love? its just to unique and emotional

  • I agree with you, I'm sorry to say but I think they should have just stuck with the original Macross (first series) Macross: DYRL and I guess Flashback 2012...I will always love the first two; a great story along with wonderful characters to go with it...there's no need to extend an already beautiful masterpiece...

  • I love Macross, but I got to admit the intro theme music for Robotech kicks Macross' original theme right in the nut sack!!!!

  • I used to think that, but I love the percussioin in the Macross theme even more now...

    They're 2 pretty different things...

    Both are very epic and very good. The Robotech theme by Ulpio Minucci (RIP) sounds kinda more optimistic, while the Macross one by Kentarou Haneda (RIP) sounds more dramatic and serious...

  • I'm 15, have seen every episode of the original Macross, and already: I love this series.

    but, I can't find any of the episodes anymore (in order).

  • i watched all 36 episodes straight on veoh :D

  • im 18 and saw it when i was 17, some months ago i love the story too, i practically saw everything macross related on veoh so you should be able to find it there

  • This documentary takes you up to macross zero which is a prequel to the orgininal macross series during the wars prior to the crashing of the superfortress. The newest macross premeired in decemeber in japan Macross Frontier which takes place about 80 years post macross 7.

  • 13 years not 80

  • man, I had no idea there were so many Macross animes released. The only parts I seen were Macross,Macross Plus, and Macross II:Lovers Again

  • Does anybody know the name of the song during the Macross Plus segment?

  • voices

  • Left Macross Shadows Cronicles (sucks); And today Macross Frontier (rulz!!!)

  • You meant ROBOTECH Shadows Cronicles. I don't want to see Robocrap associates with the wonderful Macross anymore.

  • I'm confused cause in Macross Plus Eden was colonized and in Macross 7 They were colonizing planets and stuff but what I wanna know is how Macross Plus came before Macross 7

  • I even play Macross on Nintendo, then Sega, & now Sony Play station

  • I'm also a Macross Fan,It was a phenomenal here in the philippines in the 80s,In fact i got my first Valkyrie toy during Christmas day of 1986, the Veritech fighter toy spread like wildfire, some were turn into a pencil sharpener, so you can take it on school & play it ( to bad, my Valkyrie doesn't have one) now, i'm 29 i have a VF-0 Brought to me by my aunt, from Japan ( my pasalubong), I can't wait to see the new one: VF-25 from Macross Frontier: 25 year anniversary of Macross...T.Y. Shoji

  • I watch macross on rpn 9

    when i still a kid in the 80's

    in Philippines. Pare lots memories

    tala ga as we near on the live

    action vision of robotech when

    holywood is planing already.

    Let's remember to the we never forget

    what else but macross tv series

  • Having lived in japan myself, I have to agree with this.

  • robotech was a great series, remebering watching it when i was a kid, great anime, macross plus is awezome as well

  • Basically Macross, Southern Cross, and the third series, were separate series with only the words "superdeimmensional" they had in commkon. Carl Macek an American producers. simply edidted the three series together and created Robotech. EVERYONE GET THAT? Macross is and is not Robotech.

  • A lot of anime that never got exposure on American TV were still big hits in America so I believe Macross would still be a great success without them creating that abomination called Robotech.

    They should've translated the show instead of butchering a perfectly made Anime.

  • Thanks so much... I know the robotech time line well but didnt know a lot of the macross time line... macross zero has a more mature anime style... hope to see more in the future.

  • Macross Frontier =)

  • That's CooL! thnx 4r the upload...^_^!

  • good ol times....

  • does someone know where i can downloas this or look. I've never thought that i would find this anmime here lol. there was a time this was my favorite anime wenn i was Small^^

  • Veoh  please.

  • i heard that harmony gold,manga videos,u.s.manga corps and adv are trying to get the licens for macross7 i dont really care who gets it aslong as its not Harmony gold!

  • omfg... I remember timing and typesetting this hahahaha. Memories~

  • WOW!!! I DID NOT KNOW I CAN FIND THIS VIDEO HERE. THAK YOU FOR POSTING THIS VIDEO. TAKE care...

  • The Shadow Chronicles is pure Crap

  • I'm sorry but Shadow Chronicles...is not Macross.

  • I know....I'm just trying to say that americans are ruining everything related to Macross...Just like The Shadow Chronicles...

    I won't be surprised if someday they create a bridge between Macross and Babylon 5 or Star Trek or Star Gate...Disgusting

  • Very true.

    Harmony Gold confused so many people into thinking that Robotech was actually a series in Japan.

    We need direct translations for the original series, it is an awsome anime and such a shame that alot of people still think Robotech is the true and/ or better series.

  • "We need direct translations for the original series"

    Done :

    ca(DOT)youtube(DOT)com/watch?v­=hI2chkdJZ2w

  • Also true.

  • well if you see all the cartoons, movies and evene comics about this series, well ALL HAVE COHERENCE, Is just that for some reason they choosed to make it like that, something similar like the star wars films, first you get the latest and then u get the begining

  • I won't remove your comment, but I will say this once, "Shadow Chronicles while 'official' retcons events harshly in a way I do not enjoy or feel that the hardcore fanbase as a whole supports."

    Never before has a fricken COMIC trumpted video for continuity. Personally I think it's a shame.

    Comments about SC and Robotech have nothing to do with this video posted, thank you... (future comments about SC will be REMOVED.)
