Macross Frontier

Macross Frontier marks the 25th anniversary of the Macross anime franchise. It is a direct sequel to the first Macross series and Macross 7 and follows the lives of Alto Saotome, Ranka Lee and a pop idol named Sheryl Nome on board the Macross Frontier colonization fleet. After the war against the Zentradi aliens, Humankind has spread across the universe in order to ensure its survival. The Macross Frontier fleet is part of a effort to spread and maintain the culture of humanity. [ANN]



I LOVE all of the songs by Sheryl and some by Ranka.
Macross Frontier, like Gundam Seed, focuses on songs and romance.
Sheryl's songs rock! (Marina from Gundam 00 can hit the gutter)
The animation quality is really good, especially those of mechas and background. So does the seiyuu lineup. However, the characters' designs are just moderate.



Fav charas:
Alto, Brera and Sheryl ( does Ai-kun count?)
