there it is. seriously, it's very well done. if i had one problem with it, the editor recycled some footage but it's still a killer anime music video.

It's very pretty, but I don't know about the best ever. My personal favorite is Need for Speed 2, which primarily features footage from Macross Plus and compares the show to Top Gun.

I haven't seen Need for Speed 2 for Macross Plus, Araruin, but I have seen one called Need for Speed. Is that the one with Isamu's VF-11 spliced into a certain film sequence from Top Gun? Another AMV that absolutely blew me away was 'Moondance' by Nightwish with video from Macross Zero. Amazing stuff.

At www.animemusicvideos.org there is a series of three Macross zero videos done to Ace Combat 5 audio. They go by the names Ace Combat Zero. Very good.

I've misplaced my zip drive. When I find it again, I'll upload the video.

I'm a bit biased because I love the Band & Plus but I really think this is probably the best macross AMV I've seen

I've now seen Need for Speed, and I can't see any difference between this and NFS2. You can find it at http://www.animemusicvideos.org/members ... hp?v=20674 but you'll need a login to view it.

While searching the net, I also found a few on youtube. http://www.youtube.com/results?tag=macr ... nce&page=2

Those clips are cool...
I'm having a bit of trouble with the whole RoboTech / Macross thing. I only really got to know the American Robotech series (too many years ago) and thought it could be a lot better... I remember seeing some of a movie "macross" which seem to be the same base storyline but in japanese. And I remember it not being cheezy.. This "Macross Plus" movie that is for sale everywhere... Is that the Original Japanese (with english subtitles) movie or is it something else all together?
Anyone know where I can obtain the original Macross series?
I would like to see the original stuff... Glad I found this site...

Macross is avaialble from AnimEigo now, should be able to pick up individual discs. Its essentially the same story as the first Part of Robotech, just with less changed to make the next part of Robotech make any sense.

Macross Plus is the next series done in the Macross-verse, its japanese but the dub is actually quite good if you don't like subtitles.

Macross 7 and Macross Zero are also both part of the official Macross stuff, Macross 7 being the last chronological thing and Macross Zero being a pre-Macross thing set during the UN War before the SDF Macross was operational. Neither are available in the US outside of fansubs.

Actually, Kai, ADV is presently releasing Macross on bilingual DVD's (I think they're up to volume 2 or 3 now).

Ah, wasn't sure really, just knew they were out again, I was one of those crazy people who bought the AnimEigo boxset for insane amounts of money :)

Yeah, me too^_^. While I am curious as to how ADV's voices sound I have no real desire to spend the money to buy another copy of the series (maybe if I win the lottory or my present copy dies...)

Where to buy Macross

Postby Ukara » Fri Apr 28, 2006 5:58 am

I assume a large amount of money is the US$53, for the Macross series, that they are asking on Amazon (+ postage)... Has anyone tried ebay? :D...
