~~[[Anime]] [[Transforming Mecha]], [[Fake Band]]~~
 
Sequel series to ''[[Super Dimension Fortress Macross]]'', in which a rock and roll band living on a flying city in space fight [[Our Vampires Are Different|evil space vampires]], using [[The Power of Rock]] and [[Transforming Mecha]] [[Rule of Cool|controlled with guitars]].
 
No, really.
Line 12 ⟶ 11:
Compare and contrast ''[[G Gundam]]'' in terms of a franchise sequel that differs greatly from the source material.

----
This show provides examples of:
* [[The Ace]] (Max. Downplayed since he's in charge of the battleship, but when he goes out to fight, he proves that he's still got his touch.)
* [[Ace Custom]] (The Sound Forces Valkyries are modified versions of existing fighters.)
Line 36 ⟶ 34:
* [[The Chosen One]] (Anima Spiritia)
* [[Combined Energy Attack]] (a big one in the [[Grand Finale]], involving just about everybody)
* [[Continuity Nod]]
** Max and Milia serve as the Captain and Mayor of the fleet- and both are shown to still be Ace pilots.
** 2 of their daughters show up in the series.
** [[Show Within a Show|The ''Do You Remember Love?'' movie is literally a movie in-canon]]. Some people claim the movie is just a movie and has no historical value despite the fact that the aforementioned two are veterans of the incident.
*** The movie (or in-universe movie) is about the events from the original Macross series, in which both Max & Milia served in, (their marriage being one of the other culture shocks); so, that wouldn't affect either interpretation.
** A Destroid Monster shows up in the Festival. Milia's Red VF-1 shows up as well.
Line 65 ⟶ 63:
* [[Fan Girl]] (While Fire Bomber gets to be pretty famous, the Flower Girl is definitely Basara's Number One fan. One episode focuses on another fan, though this one's a ''boy'' on Mylene. Also, the Fleet of the Strongest Women episode; must be seen to be believed.)
* [[Festival Episode]] (another mild subversion: it's a [[Humongous Mecha]] festival)
* [[Fetish Fuel Station Attendant]]: Emilia in [[The Movie]] gets a scene where she's used as blatant cheese for all of the giantess fans in the audience: she gets an [[Almost Kiss]] with Basara (she's macronized, [[HotImprobable Skitty-On-WailordSpecies ActionCompatibility|he's not]]), [[Moment Killer|interrupted by]] a kid accidentally jumping into her mouth, and when she pulls the kid out he [[Funbag Airbag|lands on her breasts and bounces around]].
* [[First Kiss]]
* [[Friend to All Living Things]] (even aside from his absolute refusal to attack people, Basara also loves animals of all shapes and sizes)
Line 77 ⟶ 75:
* [[Hot Blood]] (Basara is to [[Hot-Blooded]] singing as [[GaoGaiGar|Gai Shishioh]] is to [[Hot-Blooded]] courage.)
* [[Hot Shoujo Dad]] ''and'' [[Hot Shounen Mom]] (Max and Milia. Made more amazing considering Milia's given birth ''7'' times. [[Word of God]] says Max has stopped aging by sheer force of being a genius.)
* [[HotImprobable Skitty-On-WailordSpecies ActionCompatibility]] (In the short movie, Emilia tries kissing Basara. While she's a giant-sized Meltran and he's human-sized. Yeah...)
* [[Humongous Mecha]]
* [[Identical Grandson]] (Emilia, Mylene's older sister, has long green hair like Milia.)
** It's even worse with oldest daughter - on family picture she looks like ''twin'' of her mother. See [http://animefascination.files.wordpress.com/2010/05/the_jenius_family.jpg here]{{Dead link}}. Mylene is the baby.
* [[Improbable Weapon User]] (Two Words: Speaker Pods)
* [[In the Name of the Moon]] ("Listen to my song!")
Line 124 ⟶ 122:
* [[Real Robot]]
* [[Redshirt Army]] (led by [[We Are Team Cannon Fodder|Emerald Force]]. [[Overshadowed by Awesome|Diamond Force]] and, later, the [[Overshadowed by Awesome|Jamming Birds]] get a pass by occasionally proving their worth.)
* [[Retcon]] (The designs from ''Macross: Do You Remember Love?'' have mostly replaced the original ones)
* [[The Rival]] (Gamlin)
* [[Robo Speak]] (vending machines)
