Robotech: New Generation

Can not believe how much this is just a first step in promoting old style anime nice! ^_^AND for that complaining that this anime is HARD TO WATCH.... lol man u need to go and watch your boring anime that contain no story substance or for that metter full of so much drawing eye candy u get lost. Macross saga is simple in design that has lasted the test of time... and here it is again.BESIDES this is one of the forefathers of anime so lil more respect . >=) I think ill put you at the front of the sdf-1 and let the power canons blast away lol.

Like another reviewer, I ran home from school every day to catch this show! While I identified most strongly with the characters of the Macross series, the mecha in the New Generation cartoon captivated my geeky imagination. I drew endless pictures trying to recreate what I saw on the TV screen. The transformable Cyclone and the Alpha/Beta units' capabilities were fascinating! The silent menace of the Invid (especially shock troopers) always seemed more menacing than Bioroids or BattlePods. I thought Robotech did an amazing job of capturing adult themes that other shows of the time did not. I'm sure some of these are cliche now, but in the early 1980s they simply did not kill off major characters or obliterate populations. It was simply awesome, and still is. Thanks, Hulu, for airing this fantastic cartoon!

I applaud Hulu for posting the Robotech Series.. I cant tell you how much i enjoyed it when i was a teenager those many many moons ago, like a previous reviewer i use to race home from school just to watch it every afternoon. It was a glorious space opera and this series is what started my enjoyment of Japanese Anime in general . Thanks Hulu for posting it and for all those who say it looks dated or the animation is sub par its all about the story give it a shot you wont be disappointed.

I remember racing home after school in my early teens to catch this show on television. These Robotech series are an awesome addition to Hulu. It's disappointing to hear complaints about the quality of the animation, as previously stated in another post these cartoons are pushing 25 years of age (probably older that those persons posting the complaints). Thank you Hulu.
