    Promising art but doesn't seal the deal
  

*by S***Y on Reviewed in the United States on January 18, 2019*

It adheres too closely to the story and the dialog of the original anime. As others have noted, the writing is painful. The writers are assuming the reader is familiar with what has happened in the tv show and can fill in the gaps in their head. It's like the writers are more concerned with hitting certain lines of dialog from the tv show than trying to truly adapt it for a comic retelling. So the story feels just like it is hitting the beats, but not really adding anything interesting.But even then, they manage to miss major beats! An iconic point early in the series has Minmei falling from the sky and Rick diving down, circling her trying to catch her in the cockpit. I realize that in a comic, getting this dynamic would be difficult, but they skipped over it entirely. But that's fine, I realize the medium requires certain cuts to be made, and they are telling a slightly different story, however the next point forces a whole star to be knocked off...My biggest complaint is in drawing the battroid mode. In the 89 pages and 5 issues that this first volume covers, there are only 2 pages with the mechs in robot mode. And what should be a dynamic full page hero shot of Roy swooping into the rescue, fully transformed, comes across looking more like a toy that was stood up in front of the artists desk and used as reference. Everything is stiff.I was at first excited to start seeing how a modern comic retelling of Robotech would be, especially since the American take on it focuses more on the war drama than the singing, but so far its first showing is not a strong one.

    The butchering of a beloved franchise
  

*by S***H on Reviewed in the United States on December 11, 2021*

As a Robotech and Macross fan of 35 years and having watched the series over 50 times, I was utterly disappointed in the portrayal of the characters.  The writers and artists did not understand the intrinsic personality traits of the characters and how they related to each other.  Roy would never arrest his little brother Rick unless it was a direct order.  He, himself, gave the order.  The artists drew all the characters faces like they were emo.  The attempt to become gritty destroyed the opportunity for us to like and care for the characters.  On top of this, the unnecessary changes to the iconic plot points was hard to stomach.  I stop reading several times.  I was excited to see a graphical revival of this franchise, but whatever this is,  it is not Robotech.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    Great start to a Very Well Done Reboot...
  

*by J***M on Reviewed in the United States on July 10, 2019*

This retelling of Robotech is very well done, but it does take a few issues to really get going, things really start to go a different direction in the next collection, but its a good start. I do like the art, but I get why some fans have a problem with it not having a "Manga" art style, it does take some getting use to a more realistic version of the art, but it is really easy to tell who is who, so I do not have a problem with it.
