Did AnimEigo do the original English release of this one? Somehow, I thought it was US Renditions.
Launched this morning, and already over 150% funded.
Forty buckadingdongs gets you that basic BD; another thirty for an artbook; five more to wrap them both in a chipboard case; double that (so it's now US$150) to be listed as one of 80 Patrons on the second page of the loading screen; $250 to be a Prominent Patron on the first page; and you can add on the standard AnimEigo-issue embroidered campaign patch, a custom shikishi by HAL Mikimoto his own bad self; and/or a copy of a new limited-edition shikishi he's contemplating. And they've already unlocked a brand-new poster by his hand! Now how much would you pay?

Robert J Woodhead Wrote:Super Dimension Fortress MACROSS II - Lovers Again - takes place within the solar system during 2090 A.D. Eighty years have passed since the events of Space War I, and U.N. Spacy has encountered little in the way of further interstellar threats to humanity’s homeworld. This long peace is suddenly shattered when a previously-unknown, highly aggressive humanoid alien race, the Marduk, launches a surprise attack.
During the first wave of assaults, it quickly becomes clear that not only does this new adversary appear to be immune to U.N. Spacy’s musical Minmay Attack, but the Marduk can inspire their soldiers using their own songstresses, the Emulators. During a front-line reporting assignment, Tabloid TV reporter Hibiki Kanzaki locates and rescues an Emulator in distress, Ishtar.
With the Minmay Attack no longer effective, U.N. Spacy is forced to deploy its entire arsenal in a desperate attempt to protect the Earth from utter devastation. Meanwhile, Hibiki, Ishtar, and U.N. Spacy ace pilot Silvie Gena race against time to discover the secrets hidden aboard the SDF-1 Macross fortress, hoping that they will provide the key to ending the conflict between humanity and the mysterious Marduk.
