ROBOTECH: The Movie - 4/9

Part 4 of 9

The Harmony Gold dub of the original MEGAZONE 23 was adapted and cut together with footage from SUPER DIMENSION CAVALRY SOUTHERN CROSS, to make ROBOTECH: THE MOVIE. A new ending was produced by the studio who animated MEGAZONE 23 and thus resulted in the first batch of animation created for a ROBOTECH project.

ROBOTECH: THE MOVIE was set for a wide release, but was pulled after a test screening in Texas. The movie saw release in several other countries before Harmony Gold's license to MEGAZONE 23 ran out and decided not to renew it. ROBOTECH: THE MOVIE thus has been neglected to secondary continuity within the ROBOTECH universe.

Due to the highely unlikely possibility of this film ever being released again in the future, I've decided to upload it here for those who haven't seen it. However, please support the MEGAZONE franchise by buying the original chapter and see what was edited out and changed to make ROBOTECH: THE MOVIE and help support the anime industry. Please support the anime industry by purchasing anime rather then just downloading them.

What does this have to do with Protoculture or the Invid Flower of Life?

[duo1666]

omg, he haz a hat! perfect disguise xD

[Mario Gaetano]

The ROBOTECH series is a different storyline, that does not follow the priginal Macross arguments, in ROBOTECH protoculture is an energy source, the Macross Zero storyline is not part of this one

i'm in love with eve!

At this point the Masters are under the impression that the Protoculture Factory was destroyed with the SDF-1. They're trying to get the Memory Matrix because they hope it contains the secret of how to synthesize Protoculture.

[zvermilyer3]

I've seen Macross Zero, and I think you're thinking of OverTechnology.

[lutzdify]

Protoculture actually refers to a type of technology, NOT an energy source!!! Watch Macross zero!!

[matt0044]

Maybe the Robotech Masters would've been written out and the Protoculture as the Zentradi and humanity's ancestors would've been kept since the Masters saga (Southern Cross) didn't have a movie. It would've been considered as a "change" from the TV series.

the highway scene

[Beastkingzetta]

WTF!! this movie showed this scene twice.

[KaptinKilla]

Thanks for the joke. I will use it in my review of this movie.

Atlantis, and the reason behind why the Zentraedi had a warning in their databanks about not screwing with Micronians
