Bad news? It's not wholly original stuff, but more Frontier/Delta retread. This means that whatever's in the pipeline ain't coming soon, and that's not good. Mecha ain't dead, but we need better high-profile releases than this coming out of the big boys in Japan. Delta was over five years ago, and that's enough time to start putting out the word on a new Macross series.
We need all-new Macross, and we need it soon. I hope we get word of that later this year.
I was just reminded of Macross F's music and its crazy to think that I disliked nearly every part of the anime's story. Most of the characters with the exception of Ozma I disliked, and the story was a mess. Despite this, I still remember it fondly because it was carried by the music and the robot fights, and thats all it was trying to be.
