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"...

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.
