Macross
By most standards, Macross is considered to be a mecha franchise second only to Gundam. Much like the original Gundam series, Super Dimension Fortress Macross was a war drama. But instead of powerful prototype robots, Macross set off a craze for transforming planes following its 1982 debut. The show's successful TV run was followed a year later by a theatrical retelling, Do You Remember Love? In 1985, Macross was brought over to the U.S. as the first third of Robotech, an edited compilation of three unrelated series, including Southern Cross and Mospeada. The franchise has seen sporadic sequels throughout the decades, mainly to celebrate anniversaries. . To mark the 30th anniversary in 2012, the compilation movie Macross FB7 was released, mixing old footage from Macross 7 with new footage from Macross Frontier. In 2014, the TV series Macross Δ was announced. The series is set after Frontier, but no additional information is available.
