Who here is looking forward to this, cause I know I am. I grew up in the heyday of 80's cartoons and Robotech was one of the biggest influences in my life. Now 25 years later they are finally making a sequel to a New Generation (which was my favorite part). Check it out here. www.shadowchroniclesnews.com/

I am. Robotech: New Genenration is my favorite anime of all time.

Me too! This is the first I've heard of it, but I certainly can't wait to get it and watch it.

Also in the mech section, the picture of "Space Station Liberty" you can see how they intergrated the Macross into the Mospeada symbol, I thought that was pretty cool.

There's that warm fuzzy feeling again. I believe the term "with baited breath" about sums it up for me.

What's exciting about this is that this is the closest we've come to final production for a Robotech sequel with a very realistic probability for completion.
Sentinels came at a time when Robotech's fandom was on brink and Harmony Gold couldn't keep it together. Robotech 3000 never got beyond a test-clip of CGI animation at a time when HG was STILL trying to dig themselves out from obscurity.
Now that anime is no longer "just a fad" (yeah, I admit to being an otaku elitist - I don't like new anime)... now's the time for HG to go full-bore on a new Robotech revival. Now THIS makes it all very exciting for me.

What's even more exciting is that the story for Shadow Chronicles is designed so that it can reportedly be a springboard for possible sequels.
