I realised it in Do you remember love? and it is reaffirmed here... Lynn Minmay is Macross.

She's the main reason of why music is so important in Anime after her creation, one of voted ten best female characters in the 80s.

In short, yes. She is Macross. The sequels are all continuations of her legend.

This is the last time we ever get to see Misa, Hikaru and Minmay before they dissappear on their way to the middle of the galaxy. It's great to see they were all friends at the end.

It was definitely a treat for Macross fans, though I'm not a huge Macross fan.

I've noticed some scenes that weren't in the TV series or DYRL: were they created specifically for Flashback 2012, or was it from somewhere else, or is my memory hazy?

That was incredible, a beautiful send off for the original Macross crew, I especially liked the new footage towards the end.

You know because of the tv show's horrendous epilogue arc I've not been sure about bothering with any of the sequels but this convinced me otherwise. I'l give me a try at least.

That was fun. I guess this is the last time we see Hikaru, Misa and Minmay.

Interesting compilation, with all the song for series and film...5/10.

Nice compilation with decent video montage for the musics, we even get a longer bit of Cinderella (still not enough, since it was the less standard idole song in the TV show).

The epilogue was short but enough, they should have cut out a few minutes of the last episode (notably the black screen at the end) to have it during the original broadcast (since it was cut out from the storyboard because the episode would have been too long for its slot). But at least, we got it.


Enjoyment: 4/5 (not a fan of all the songs)
Score: 7/10

Japanese must love Pierrot le fou


@CodeBlazeFate Seen the last minutes of it?

This episode made me like Minmay. Misa is the right choice but I kinda feel sad for her.
My top 3 songs of her are Silver Moon, O-G Love and Do You Remember Love. I didn't watch Macross in my childhood but listening to her song gives me feeling of nostalgia.

Love seeing that clip of Misa at the helm of Megaroad 01 and Hikaru leading the VFs. Also felt a bit sad for Minmay despite never really caring for her. It looked like she was on board the Megaroad also, she went with them?

I like how there're Zentradi playing in Minmay's band. This is mostly a big AMV, I laughed when they repeated Misa's slap to Hikaru several times during "Zero G love" x)

Nice final sequence, Minmay is departing and staying at the same time? I guess she's "leaving behind" her past self. Misa's new uniform is awesome. But it's the last time I'll see both of them ;_;

The overall thing would've been better without special effects though. Loved the joint song at the end :3

Unless some new Macross shows us what happenned in this last journey, this will be the last time we will see the first 3 protagonists of macross.
Maximiliam was with Exedore the other two to remain from the first one, but Max limit is Macross Delta much probably (since he's already 74 years old).
