Macross Frontier 01: Close Encounter

Lest I be accused of only liking quirky anime, I've decided it might be good to include a show with robots to appeal to the fanboys. I figure what better than a series that pays homage to the both the old and the new: Macross Frontier. After all, this is the show that renewed my faith in the Macross series -- at least for its first episode -- following the debacle that was Macross 7. Seriously, what the heck was that (i.e. Macross 7)? I'll make sure I remember to ask this question if I ever meet Sigmund Freud in the after life, although it sure would be funny if he replied by saying, "I've been trying to figure that out, too." Boy, do I need some psychotherapy right about now. Speaking of psychotherapy, it appears as if Macross Frontier's new main character could use some, too, given how everyone calls him "Princess" and all. Maybe he should just save himself some grief and cut his hair, but that would be way too easy, no?
