AWESOME!

My brother and I used to watch Robotech when we were kids. Now that they have it on video I'm poised to get it because I thought that it was such a beautiful cartoon. It's very well animated and the plot lines are very well written. I always thought that Robotech would go on past 1985 but since it didn't this is as good as it gets. My hats off to the people who keep Japanese Annime alive and well into the next Millenium.
