Animeby Coolzweg2

Real robots are a subgenre of the mecha genre, in which the mechas are depicted as realistic warmachines as opposed to the superheroistic depiction of the super robot subgenre. It was started in 1979 by Mobile Suit Gundam.

Some 80s anime with openings I really like. I'll probably add more to the list with time.

This is a part of a series of stacks that are about artistic tendencies in anime (and that border the fine line between sophisticated and pretentious).

This stack is a work in progress.

List of anime that aired in Peru. This third part is going to cover anime that originally aired in the 80's. The stack is going to be updated if some title is missing or hasn't been aired in Peru.

Shows that Hironobu Kageyama has sung in, has been credited in, or is plainfully obvious that it's him.

Anime that were used for foreign markets to mix-match together and redub in order to create a wholly original plotline. Also known as Macekre for Carl Macek, creator of the most notable example of this practice, Robotech.

I, and I suspect many others, have fond memories of Robotech. I understand MAL rules and accept the fact Robotech does not qualify for entry here. Still...

When I first watched the series, I had no idea of the studio relationships, development history, production woes, and legal entanglements. This stack sheds some light through reference to YouTube explainer videos. Searching YouTube for Robotech will turn up a bunch of videos, several of which go through the troubled history of the franchise. Everyone seems to agree on the general facts surrounding the various people and events but each has its own perspective.

MercuryFalcon 27K subs: "... lawsuits, scandals, broken promises, tax fraud, embezzlement, unpaid royalties, Swiss bank accounts, and statutes of limitation." Robotech playlist:
https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLWwm0eq4S9E4AvkabwAfCrvyQkiVFLf91

RetroBlasting 119K subs: Plenty of nostalgia for the 1980s, plenty of hate for Capt. Gloval. Robotech playlist:
https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLZIxaT6XsvKrYP6q17L5fPvxMUi-_A-2p

Secret Galaxy 385K subs: Part 5: licenses normalized, Robotech live action???
https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLCYSDJQezavKQNm6zCRKJ6Lur9cE-sfCY

Robotech not on MAL:
-- Robotech
-- Robotech the Movie
-- Robotech II The Sentinels
-- Robotech The Shadow Chronicles

(Somehow, 85 episodes of Robotech have been on YouTube for over 6 years.)

(Somehow, Robotech the Movie remastered in 1080p has been on YouTube for over a year.)

(Somehow, Robotech II The Sentinels Re-mastered has been on YouTube for over 4 years.)

If you watch any of these videos, the YouTube algorithm will likely recommend more Robotech content for your viewing pleasure.

Tired of adaptions, reboots, and remakes in your sci-fi anime? Frustrated that MAL doesn't allow you to filter by source material? Well, this list has you covered.

For the sake of including as much as I could, I've only listed one entry from each franchise/series (generally the first installment). Some entries have a manga that came out shortly before they premiered, but those aren't really adaptions since the production of the anime predates creation of the manga.

The series is divided into three chapters or sagas:

Robotech: The Macross Saga (Episodes 1-36) (Adapted from Super Dimension Fortress Macross TV series).

Robotech: The Robotech Masters (Episodes 37-60) (Adapted from Super Dimension Cavalry Southern Cross TV series).

Robotech: The New Generation (Episodes 61-85) (Adapted from Genesis Climber MOSPEADA TV series).

Continuing after the original series:

Robotech: The Movie (Adapted from Megazone 23 Part 1 OVA film. It also uses footage from Super Dimension Cavalry Southern Cross TV series.)

Robotech: Love Live Alive (Adapted from Genesis Climber MOSPEADA OVA Love, Live, Alive).

List of mecha anime with female main characters, from oldest to newest. I have excluded sequels for most of these to prevent me from having to make 5 different stacks.

Part 2 (2009 - present): https://myanimelist.net/stacks/58126

If there's a mecha anime with a female MC I've forgotten to list (or an anime that is on this stack but shouldn't be) then message me or comment on my profile and I'll add/remove it.
