Watched this show 3 times now, and I have to say, it just may be my favorite anime to date. With a great story, the best sounds track i have ever heard, fantastic animation quality, great character design that i will never forget, I almost feel bad for those who have not gotten to enjoy the show yet. I need to comment on the music. If you're a macross fan you know that the show revolves around music and the power of song, and these tunes are rockin. With the second OP "Lion" or Sheryl Nomes Diamond Crevasse, The music keeps the flow of the

show going.
The Battles, fought in the depths of space are full of action and beautiful animation, they all have an electric flow, and are generally in sync with the Music, making all fights extremely engaging, both for your ears and your eyes.
Macross frontier is so intense that the first episode, to me, felt more like a finale than a first episode. When macross quarter punched a certain opposing enemy IN THE FACE I had a shiver of win creep down my spine.
One point i would like to make. I dont like exagerating. I dont like lying. When I tell you now that macross frontier has the very best finale I have ever seen, I mean it. I have never seen a more satisfying end. Closure, new songs and mixes, a bit of a twist and the best space battle EVER.
Though, I cant say ALL positives so i will say this. with the three main characters, alto, sheryl, and ranka, I feel that rankas character fell apart. It was at first a close love triangle, then as their story's progressed, they changed, but it seemed as though the writers were not sure what to do with ranka lee's character at one point, and it kind of trailed off.
All in all, this show was GREAT, and even if you havnt seen another macross series, you can fully enjoy this one. I give this show a perfect 10, I was totally blown away. thank you for reading my review
