Rate this anime day 150: Super Dimension Fortress Macross

[Consumed]

I haven't seen the original Macross SDF yet so I don't really have a complete opinion of the franchise, but I liked Plus and DYRL so much that I'm giving it a 10 off principle. I mean it has to be great if the derivatives are so good. Those two differed from just about anything in Gundam in placing a ton of focus on the relationships and internal conflict of the main characters. You get to know what makes the person behind the robot tick as well as the people not directly involved in fighting. Music is given tangible meaning as it's used as a way to unite people of different backgrounds, cultures, species, and even at one point is weaponized. I'm generally a fan of shows that gives you a reason to care about the people in the story as it makes their eventual triumphs all the more meaningful.

This song by Lynn is that. In isolation its whatever, would never check for it. But knowing the context of the moment and everything riding on the performance, goosebumps




Macross Plus has a top five soundtrack in anime and it's not really debatable. Type of OST that'll stick with you forever. One of several Yoko Konno classics.

Yesterday’s results:

Kenichi the Mightiest Disciple: 8.19

For day 149 of our series the coli posters felt Kenichi the Mightiest Disciple was the epitome of almost close but not there yet giving it a high level jump kick score of 8.19. The main contention with Kenichi was the fact it didn’t finish its best arc. And unfortunately that’s what did it in.

On to day 150

Rules:

1. The Coli will be rating over 100+ animes and movies.

2. You can rate the anime on a multitude of factors ( Quality, Storyline, amount of filler, animation, etc) BUT YOU MUST HAVE ONE OVERALL SCORE.

3. Users rate the anime on a scale of 1-10
(10 being king status, 1 being status)

4. The results of the poll will be displayed publicly.

5. Feel free to nominate any anime. The Coli has a 158 page Cosplay thread and multiple platinum anime thread topics so I know the demand is heavy here.

6. I can guarantee you this, despite the other rate..... threads, this one will be completed.

7. Time for votes will last for approximately 24 hours.

8. You can factor in non-Canon movies and arcs in your decision.

.9) Remember..........This is your decision.

10) The poll will be up for 24 hours only so make sure you get your votes in

Absolutely stunned this only has two votes. I really hope this isn’t the case because I had plans to do all the Macross and Robotech.

what's the difference?
