Come and join the fun. It will be mind blowing event. Not sure who's mind will get blown off but still, it should be fun.

Yep, it's a typo error. The date is 12th January 2008.

I think it's partly true but still, if you look at what macross is all about and not just human fighting human on Mobile Suit, you will see that it has a different taste and feeling towards the story and their mecha. I can see some jaw dropping moments when i show some macross movie/series/ova to few of my friends and few bunch of people (who never seen macross before). Even commented "George Lucas should learn from these people how to shoot". But it's a subjective matter. Of course we really cannot compare with gundams which is massed produced by bandai even without a good storyline or visual presentation.

Well, from my personal observation today after seeing thirty over teens watching macross (frontier) for the first time, they just want to know more (can't wait for the next episode). It has a new way of reaching out to people and sure enough, carries a weight in the anime and mecha world. Well, we hope that this event will open up more eyes on macross and build bigger interest towards the macross saga.
