Hope the movie is a new adventure rather than a 2 hour clip show of the series. For exampe, Grace somehow survived and begins wreaking havoc on the new colony, with geneticaly altered Vajra that obbey her every command. It’s just a thought.
What i would also love would be for a remake of the original Macross. I love the original, but the animation is dated and doesn’t do it justice. Can you imagine those VF-1′s and the SDF-1 in the same 3D animation used in Frontier? Sweetness. That, a 3rd gig of GITS SAC and a TV series of Akira,as it was in the original manga, are my top 3 anime wishes.

Well, as I have mentioned and several has agreed to, there has not been a record of Mr Kawamori doing a sequel. The best he did was an OVA or a movie.

I, for one, do not wish to see a condensed version of the 25 episodes. DYRL was done to show the fans what could have been in the original Macross, but in the end the story of the movie was just taken as an inaccurate telling of the events that happened in the series. A historical movie.

I would love for them to explore the history of Vajra and their relationship with humans, namely the story of the lost fleet. I much prefer to leave Alto’s fate to our own imaginations, or the OVAs.

@mai oh for sure. Escaflowne is my favorite anime ever. 90s anime was so much better than todays. I haven’t watched anything for about 3 or so years until I heard about MacrossFrontier.
Escaflowne’s ending was perfect(my cat is named Van I love it so much), for sure. That is why I think that MacrossFrotnier will stay as it is. It works with that ending. He really could go either way and it would be fine. Escaflowne Hitomi chose Van over Allen, but she returned to her home world. We-the viewer-never know if they will meet again or if they will eventually fall in love with someone else. They are only 16. It was a conclusion, but still could be open ended. Also the same thing with Earth Girl Arjuna. You got an ending, but there was still a lot left unanswered but you could make up your own ending and be satisfied. If MacrossF picked Sheryl or Ranka then the shipping war would be insane. But you get enough interpretive hints for Alto to swing either way. That was what was so good about MacrossF.
@kai that was what Bilrer wanted in the first place. To find Minmay/Megaroad with SDFMacross cast. Who knows. I doubt it’ll happen. Minmay is a legend and will remain that way.

They have to make a movie to explain lots of stuff that wasn’t in the series. So I hope kawamori do not make some compilation of the series like DYRL.

But I’m still more ancious about the live dvd show. XD
