Summary:

In a futuristic universe, humanity waged war against a race of giants known as Zentradi. Facing extinction at hands of their foes, humanity escaped to the stars. In 2059 A.D., the 25th Giant Immigration fleet, also known as the Macross Frontier, undergoes its journey towards the center of the galaxy.

For the most part, life on the Macross Frontier proceeds as normal. But when famous singer Sheryl Nome visits, things go awry. Mysterious biomechanical aliens known as Vajra appear and attack, just as the citizens are busy clamoring over Sheryl.

17-year-old student mech pilot Alto Saotome joins the fray against the alien threat. While battling against a Varja, Alto rescues a young girl named Ranka Lee. Major Ozma Lee notes Alto’s skill during his battle, and recruits him into the Strategic Military Services program. But his recruitment does not go smoothly, as the ghosts of Alto’s past come up to haunt him.

Review:

aimo aimo ne-deru ru-she noina miria enderu purodea fotomi… I mean..

Macross Frontier is one of the coolest Mecha I’ve came across. As much as I disliked Alto at first I think its a cool anime. I liked both female characters I think Sheryl is Sexy and Ranka is very cute. They are both good singers. They have an interesting relationship with Alto, but I didn’t like the fact that they both have a crush on him or whatever. The love story and shipping aside. Lets talk about the Mecha… Macross is breath taking. I also liked the different species in the anime Klan was my favorite. I love the music of the anime specially Ranka’s song. The plot of the anime was great it was fun and was exciting, it was tragic and sad. The anime was also full of action and kept you on the edge. Overall the anime is very good.

Overall Rate: 8/10
