    Corrections as you tend to take accuracy seriously with your other breakdowns.
    1: They did not steal the SDF-1, they recovered it after it crashed.
    2: They knew how to use the SDF-1 and it's weapons, what they did not know was how they worked the way they did. Knowing how to use something and how it works is completely different.
    2: They discovered that a hostile alien species could and very most likely would come for their lost ship. Leaving them in the position to be eradicated after giving it up, or create new technology in hopes to combat this alien threat.
    3: Rick was best friends with Roy Fokker, the CAG of the SDF-1, not just some soldier. He would easily be able to get Rick out of any jam the RDF would decide to put Rick into because of his aerial acrobatic stunt.
    He honestly didn't put anyone in danger other than himself.
    4: The SDF-1's booby trap can easily stay intact even after being rebuilt. This is a computer system leagues beyond our complete understanding so finding something like the booby trap could easily escape even the best programmers out there if it was hidden like all booby traps are.
    5: The main gun firing into the ocean is an animation error, like so many series have. It is indeed meant to show the blast going through the curvature of the earth. But was animated in a clunky way. This is the fault of the original Macross series and should have no bearing on Robotech or it's lore.
    6: "Robotechnology" was not a term created by humanity in the series, it came from the Robotech Masters, and as the Zentraedi are their creations, the Zentraedi used it as well. Zor's battle fortress (SDF-1) was created by Zor, a Robotech Master.
    7: Zentradei is the name of the aliens, as others have pointed out.
    8: Lisa was not the motherly type, she's even called a "Sourpuss" by Rick. She's a hardass that takes military bearing and law extremely seriously.
    9: I don't see a problem with an all female bridge crew, they all more than excelled at their jobs throughout the series.
    10: The SDF-1 itself was not deemed top secret because NOBODY could keep the secret that a giant alien space ship just crashed into the earth with the force of a 100 megaton nuke. What WAS kept secret was the existance of the aliens, because the RDF did not believe the public was ready to accept the fact of a warring alien species that could be coming for them all. This is why the VF-1 Valkyrie was also deemed Top Secret, while the plane itself was not, it's full capabilities (Transformation) was and nobody knew about that except those within the RDF like the pilots and crew of the SDF-1. This is why everyone was so surprised when Rick showed up in a giant plane transformed into a robot.
    I understand you're joking around with some of this which is fine. But if you want to comment on the Lore of Robotech, more research is definitely required.

      I've always seen the SDF main cannon firing sequence in Booby Trap to be explained by the curvature of the earth. The trap was triggered to fire the moment the enemy was within its cross hairs when they were approaching earth or in earth orbit. The cannon is so powerful, it vaporized part of the island, and countless amount of ocean surface and still had enough energy to destroy multiple enemy vessels out in space.

      Stealing is such a bad joke. SDF1 itself was stolen by its original crew to break free from an oppressive regime and the humans merely picked up the pieces and rebuilt it. And SDF-1 brought humans together and they made weapons not to kill one another but to protect the human species.
      The all female bridge crew and the mostly male fighter pilots reminds me of the Battle of Britain where a mostly female British radar crew cooperate with the mostly male pilots to intercept the Luftwaffe.

  • @davidnorman8631
    @davidnorman8631 5 років тому +5

    I'm not going to harp on the Zentradi pronunciation. What I will state is, that as a Military Vet, I know that the majority of Military Bases do have a large civilian population that builds up around them. This is because the bases generate income in both direct and indirect methods. It would make sense that there would be a large population around the wreck of the SDF 1 because of the base. Plus, a lot of the individuals that did move to the island were probably dispossessed by the recent World War. A very good potential example of this is the Minmei family. They are Chinese and living on the island (Running a restaurant.)
    Another thought is that, given the significance of the discoveries on the SDF1, the UN used the opportunity to create a rally point for humanity. Space has always been a uniting force for humanity. Just look at the Lunar Landing as an example.
    For the voice acting, please keep in mind that Robotech is essentially a redubbing of the Japanese series Macross (Hence the name of the ship). At the time of broadcast, the voice acting community in the US was not on par with what Japan had or the US has now. Plus the characters had to be renamed and events had to be edited to fit the target audience. There are some events that occur later in the series that had to be softened or edited out to make US Broadcast.
    Also, the incidents with Rick get put on the backburner for two reasons: 1) Roy was the commanding officer at the location and 2) Events unfold that require every available hand within the next few minutes.
    Also an FYI- Roy was an employee of Rick's Dad at an Air Circus before becoming a fighter pilot.
    And I know that the series seems pretty black and white at the moment, but your video covers maybe the first 5-10 minutes of the very first episode. Things get a heck of a lot more grey as the series progresses.

    Ok this is good now please do proper Macross lore please. Also in the original the ship was originally designated as ASS 1 or Alien Space Ship one( before being named SDF-1 as a mobile fortress part was its purpose as a mobile base for military operations). Also the city was actually like the one from Project Manhattan but without the secrecy. Yes stop with Robotech and just do SDF Macross. Though a loving term used for the Bridge crew of the Macross is Bridge Bunnies yes I know. The term actually did evolve to simply refer to just background bridge crew with no narrative purpose( Macross does solve it quickly) though the Discovery's bridge crew can be considered such.

      Would that be Robotech: Battlecry? Not a bad game for its day. I had it on XBox. The controls were intuitive, the gameplay was reasonably satisfying (if a bit repetitive), the cel-shading graphics measure up about as well today as they did when it came out in 2002, and they got a bunch of the original voice actors, soundtrack, and sound effects, which was a really nice touch you don't see a lot today.
      That said, it had some structure issues that needed a bit more work to iron out. The one that really stuck with me was that you could unlock different Veritech fighters that had different stats for armor, firepower, and handling, which was cool - but there was no between-mission hangar where you could switch up your fighter like the Rogue Leader or Ace Combat games had. Whichever Veritech you picked, you'd best get comfortable, because you were stuck in it until you saved, quit, and reloaded.

    Your brave for trying to make sense of a story written over top of another story. Robotech had some great moments, but they are almost universally due to Macross... Which still had a pretty off the rails story at times, but like at Hideo Kojima as an example... A lot of Japanese 'writing' is rather like that at times. However Robotech does add a lot of twists just to try to link the Macross story into a 'arc' made from the animation work of three different groups. Things like 'Robotechnology' are attempts by the US team to link the three series' into a singular plot. Robotech was fine for me as a kid, but Macross won my heart as an adult. Especially when we move into Macross Plus, 7, Zero (which is arguably the best of them), and Frontier (I've never seen 'Macross Delta', so I'm not including that).

    "Stole"? You might want to look up the basics of maritime salvage law. Being abandoned by its crew, and not marked (With a buoy, beacon, or similar.) for recovery, SDF-1 would be considered derelict. ie: "In terms of maritime law, derelict is considered property abandoned on navigable waters which has no hope of being recovered, or sine spe recuperandi, and no expectation of it being returned to its owner, or sine animo revertendi." In other words, and especially after 10 years abandoned with no effort by the Zentradi to claim her, SDF-1 was legal salvage.

    Yep, it is hard to claim they stole the ship when it crashed with no survivors, salvage rights would apply. Of course, when a massively powerful fleet shows up to claim it, the fine points of salvage vs theft do become rather irrelevant.

    • @Stardreamer90
      @Stardreamer90 5 років тому

      It is also interesting that the Zentradi found the idea that the natives could salvage the ship to be incredible, they being mere Micronians. But then from a race that doesn't even know how to maintain their own ships, I don't think their opinion was all that significant. I always found the Micronian thing to be rather interesting, since the Robotech Masters and their race would also be Micronians, so this sort of prejudice doesn't seem to make sense. It is really another vestige left over from the original Macross story.
      Actually, if I remember right the SDF-1 in the original Macross was not a Zentradi vessel they were coming to recover but the wreckage of another alien race that the Zendtradi were fighting. That race was never revealed though.

      @@LoreReloaded basically Harmony Gold tried Voltroning Macross, Southern Cross and Mospeda all because they wanted syndication. Macross was already a successful show in Japan so while Macek( rest in peace) simply wanted to translate and bring to the west Harmony Gold instead pushed the merging of three completely different shows( Macross and Southern Cross are from the Super Dimensional trilogy meta series. The last of the trilogy being Orguss which was thankfully saved from HG) and mashed together. So in essence after the Macross arc the whole series falls apart due to major animation differences( and terrible logic between arcs that really shows how it is).

    Hooo boy, Macross &/or Robotech "Lore". Although I prefer Macross, you are better off going with Robotech for what we in the West think of as "Canon Lore".
    It has been stated by Shoji Kawamori that all the different Macross series are essentially TV dramatizations of events that happened in the Macross Universe. Think of it like there is "Canon" WWII. We have shows like Band of Brothers, Hogan's Heroes, Combat, Rat Patrol, Black Sheep Squadron, Saving Private Ryan, & Tora Tora Tora, etc. that are based on that "Canon" event. That is how the creators of the Macross series treat their different series & why there seem to be some discrepancies between them. Every Macross series is a "TV series" or "movie" from that Universe that is dramatizing events that happened at that time. MacrossWorld forums might be a good place to find the "Official" Timeline of events & people/mecha production & those are the only "Canon" things. For example, there WAS a Space War 1, we know the dates of certain events & the names & ages of people involved & when certain Technologies came online, everything else is technically dramatization.
    Robotech was made from 3 unrelated Anime series because the TV people over here wanted a minimum 65 episodes to hit the magical syndication limit for that time (they got 85). Harmony Gold/Carl Macek created a timeline where each show was a different generation of people on earth fighting off related alien invasions with some characters being related to characters from earlier in Robotech.
    There was a series of Robotech novels by 2 authors calling themselves "Jack McKinney". The novels took some liberties with things & made up their own stuff to fill things out. They were the bases of the Southern Cross character Anatole Leonard being a sick bastard bad guy. In interviews with the voice actor, who also helped write some of the script, Leonard was supposed to be a Patton like hard ass but one of the good guys. In the original Southern Cross "Leonard" was a villain, but in the Robotech version they added dialogue & some scenes where he sent reinforcements to help. Most fans have taken the novel's point of view. (Side note there is a small but hard core group of Southern Cross fans that are really touchy about this. I sympathize with them although they probably hate my guts for being a Macross fanboy.)
    The Robotech Comics after the Comico run were pretty much given a completely free hand to make up whatever they wanted, especially in the 90's before they stopped being put out. I have NOT read the new comics so I don't know what the state of them is.

    • @barrybend7189
      @barrybend7189 5 років тому

      The thing with Shoji Kowamori's statement it only follows to SDF Macross and its movie. As he also stated Do You Remember Love was a big joke of what Gundam did with Mobile Suit Gundam's compilation films. As in later series both SDF Macross and DYRL are mentioned( in Macross 7 a member of Battle 7's bridge crew mentions Do You Remember Love as a movie about Minmei and in Macross Delta one member of Walkure mentions having all of the Minmei Files tv show( all 36 episodes). So while later Macross series are fully fleshed out SDF Macross and DYRL are a mixed topic( personally by latter accounts in the series events happened like in the TV show but with character designs from DYRL).

    Eh, claiming salvage rights on a derelict ship isn't wrong to do.

    Having a new project to focus on, one that could open the stars to humanity and solve energy crises with revolutionary new technologies,, especially when the world had been locked in the death spiral of a third world war? That sounds like just the thing to rally humanity in one of our darkest hours and pull us back from the brink.
    Focusing on that project not for its own sake, but because there's strong evidence that a fleet of alien warships crewed by angry titans may show up any day now? That puts a... somewhat _different_ spin on things. Especially when said war fleet _does_ show up, and pretty much just starts shooting.
