This is terrible, just terrible.
One may wonder what were they thinking or is this some kind of joke? How could a classic series with great story, brilliant writing and fantastic design turn into such a major lack of taste show for 9 year olds? The quality is so poor it makes me wonder why they even called “Lovers Again” filler, when the supposed canon material is just as bad or worse.
It is almost surprising that Shoji Kawamori himself partook in the story and designs of these characters when they turned out to be so uninventive and stupid. Mechanical designs seem more appropriate for Digimon, while character designs are the work of a 12-year old. The story is childish and absurd leaving us lost. I cannot help but facepalm during every episode. This nightmare continues for 50+ episodes, four of which have only minor developments.
The animation is lazy and does not live up to the quality of the opening sequence. The music soundtrack is almost absent, with just four horrible tracks that are played to death in every episode.
Ultimately, this show completely misses the point of Macross and insults it repeatedly before proceeding to make itself even more embarrassing.
