If you see the original series: Super Dimensional Fortress Macross, you will Hate Robotech.
Robtech, is a insulte to Macross, and Carl Maceck, is a thief...
The true: Macross has at least 5 secuels, including the last one, Macross Frontier.
Robo has just 2: The Sentinels, and Shadow Chronicles, and two sucks.
Ikarus.
