  A classic Macross series
  
  Being a Macross fan, this is one of the series that I would never get bored no matter how many times I watch. Keep in mind that this movie edition came after the 4 OVAS. So some of the scenes are removed to accommodate movie time. Actually I like the new cut, because it makes the story move faster and there are couple of new scenes (in my opinon) makes the story more smoother and dramatic. So get this DVD before it goes out of print. This is more than 10 years old!

  Macross Plus
  
  I saw the first video many years ago, so when I had the opportunity to buy it I did, and so far I have no regrets. This is an awesome little part of the bigger puzzle that is the macross saga. These episodes have such amazing animation sequences, that they made my head spin. I encourage others to buy these videos (or DVD's) and enjoy their quality and storyline, not to mention the amazing transforming veritech fighters.

  Truely to all future pioneers
  
  Macross Plus really is one of the best installments in the Macross franchise. Coming from someone who has seen mostly everything of Macross (yes, including Macross 7) I can easily say this is one of the best purchases I have ever made.
  
  As has been said this is the movie version of the original 4 part OVA that was edited, cut, and tied together into a 2 hour presentation. This movie is Japanese with English subtitles as the movie version was never dubbed into English like the OVA but don't let that sour you on this buy. Sometimes the best way to see anime is in its original format.
  
  This movie has it all, a great story, high flying mecha action, and of course the trademark of Macross: music plays an important role. Whether you are a long time Macross fan or just like mecha anime in general you can enjoy this movie. Highly Recommended.

  This is not Macross Plus! This is Macross II!
  
  Every review I have read here is talking about Macross Plus - an entirely different series produced several years after this. Macross II is the first sequal series to Macross. The first half is an intriguing set-up for a series, but the second half is lackluster and delivers no real pay-off. PLUSES: The character designs by original Macross designer Haruhiko Mikimoto are fantastic. The animation and space battles for the first half of the story is great. The universe feels like a natural extension of the original series. MINUSES: Poor second half, both in terms of animation quality and storytelling. Overall, a worthwhile diversion for Macross fans, and any fan of Mikimoto or Kawamori's designs. And still light years better than Macross Zero or the infantile Macross 7 which inexplicably ran for many years. Enjoy.
