It made a huge impact with me as well. It's always been a favorite of mine since I first saw it. I really wish they would make a similar Macross to Plus again. The newer ones have never quite been the same. Although I really have a soft spot for the original.
@@SmartJapanHacksCulture truuu mine aswell, my first encounter was actually from the game on playstation,i remember fondly playing it with my friend in junior high school. He's become a real pilot now, and for the succesor i think macross zero was having the same feeling on it (since it supposed to be prequel)
I actually haven't seen Macross Zero yet, but I love that they included the a variation of the Tomcat. I will have to check it out eventually. Cool that your friend managed to become a pilot. I would have loved to go down that route myself, but I didn't have the eyesight for it.
Yes me too! The music was jaw dropping for me.. but it was also the first "adult anime" I had ever watched and taught me that cartoons can actually make you FEEL things.
YF-21 is one of my favorite mech since I was a child. Really glad to see bandai namco release a very well-designed 1/100 HG plastic model in 2024(also YF-19).
Macross Plus has been my fave Anime OVA since 1994. Wasn't until last year that I learned Bryan Cranston & David Hayter voiced the protagonist in the dubbed version. Mind blowned xD
Same here. I got the subbed version back in the day, so I never really heard any of the dubs until recently. I would never have guessed that those guys were involved.
Loved macros plus. It was my first macros & hard to beat. Loved the world building, not to mention the obvious love & talent that went into production. Just subbed so get some more vids out!
Here are some hopefully interesting facts I've come across about Macross Plus over the years. If you know anything else interesting about this franchise, please share them in the comments.
I am curious....will you compare/make a video why Macross Plus & Frontier is considered one of the best beginner friendly Macross from Old & Modern era ?
I just read an article that a Blu-Ray version of Macross Plus will be released 09/30/2024 in the Crunchyr0ll Online Store for the first time in North America and 2nd time in the UK. Will include both the OVA and Movie versions of the movie, special features, a 184 pages art book, some cool collectors cards and a poster for Sharon Apple's concert!! How's that for 'transient facts'?? Lol I... can't... freaking... wait!!!👏🤩 Amd thanks for uploading this video. 🫡
Macross Plus had a huge impact on me when I was a kid. Made me happy to see people making videos about it nowadays.

yoko kanno music is just sublime.
She's amazing! I've yet to hear a soundtrack by her that I didn't like.
This is my 2nd Favourite Macross Anything!😁
Love The YF-19😁
The YF-19 is amazing! The swept wings were a really nice touch. Makes it instantly look like a more experimental design.

Macross + and Redline will be the pinical of hand drawn anime action (yes I know M+ did have some computer helpe)

Some of Macross Plus osts also could be heard on Macross 7 on the soundtrack, and there was a cameo of zentradi that looked like Guld
Nice! The soundtrack is so good!
You forgot to mention that it was the only Macross story that a war wasn’t happening.
If I ever win the lottery, I'm personally financing a new release like this. Hollywood keeps making crap and this Macross Plus is GOLD.
I would watch that instantly!
I don’t think masayuki did the character designs for Evangelion, unless it’s the angels or mechs.
I also want to correct you about YF-19 design, that the Excalibur was a mix design based on X-29 & SU-47 Berkut
The Sukhoi Su-47 debuted in 1997, 3 years after Macross Plus OVA release.
thank u
Thanks for watching!
FACT 32: Basara is the "besto aidoru" of the whole Macross universe. 😁😁😁

1:59 That's wrong MASAYUKI. MASAYUKI worked on Macross Plus is Masayuki Yamaguchi. The one in the 1:59 is Masayuki KOJIMA.
Oh the last macross.
In America.
