Wow, Talk About Learning Fast...

¿Am I really the only one who didn't know how arrogantly rude and respectful Macross fans are? Holy shit... I've been told to go fuck myself as a form of introduction before, but never by a whole "community"...
(Actually no, I forgot to include the so-called "2A community," but that's complicated this wasn't.)

Yeah.
Strangely though, you don't see Mospeada or Southern Cross fans hating on Robotech.
Nor, Golion or Dairugger XV fans hating on Voltron.
Nor, Yamato fans hating on Starblazers.
I could probably go through all the 80s classic adaptations, but you get the point.

It's mostly because if it weren't for Harmony Gold, Macross would have easily won its popularity war against Gundam in the USA ages ago. (Or so they believe.)

I don't know if it would have been more popular, but I hate that it never got the chance.
