Do You Remember Robotech?

CW: Light discussion of the show's usage of Intellectual DisabilitiesLook, you've seen it a billion times. A decade after the popular original, some wholly different team comes in and makes a gritty sequel or reboot that doesn't quite reach the highs of the original. Maybe it's in conversation with it in a way that still requires the original as a meaningful foundation, or maybe it just doesn't get the original at all. And sometimes there's an OVA sequel to a show that wasn't really all that popular in the first place that's like way better in every conceivable way???? Orguss 02 somehow really rips despite it all and it's really nice to talk to Mel about actually enjoying a thing for once. Thanks again to Mel for partnering with me for this, and please go check out her stuff!Detour Quarry image mentioned: https://i.imgur.com/kjvBt53.pngOur email: doyourememberrobotech@gmail.comMel's personal Twitter and Podcast Twitter:https://x.com/dearcrownshttps://x.com/ultra_queueThe opening theme is just a cut down orguss theme and the ending theme is, uh, some other isekai anime chosen in tribute to Manny. We should be returning in January, from talks from up above, so be excited for that!

Hi I really needed to do something productive today so I finally got around to releasing this sorry to everyone it took so long! Anyway there are three of us and we talk about the finale of this show. Was the show good? Uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh well no but when I listened to the opening bit I laughed at my own joke so at least there is clearly some productive work being done here with the podcast at least. Next time we're going to watch the full OVA of 02 so that's going to be exciting because what the hell do you do with this for a follow up? This was recorded a while ago so if you sent in emails we will be answering them on the next episode! If you haven't yet you can send one in at doyourememberrobotech@gmail.com Mel's personal Twitter and Podcast Twitter:https://x.com/dearcrownshttps://x.com/ultra_queueThe opening theme is just a cut down orguss theme and the ending theme is, uh, some other isekai anime chosen by Sanga. Please listen to the end for a bit of a gag! Thanks again to Sanga! He doesn't have any links!!

Welcome back! It's another Org-Time for another Org-Minute. Just don't ask about our Gasm's!!! Haha well anyway this time we talk about the middle third of Orguss, as it moves away from episodic stories and onto true Dunbine-esque isekai storytelling. Our heroes are tasked with a terrible choice that bellows ominously and vaguely in the distance, and also there's a lot of romantic tension between father and daughter and CONTINUING THE FAKE LOVE TRIANGLE WITH THE KID ROBOT!!!!!??? You know in speaking of weird fake romance with an adult and a kid has anyone seen Disney's Tomorrowland? That movie sucks. Truly a bad time.Anyway this episode we go ahead and more directly summarize each individual episode which I hope will help for understanding if you aren't a true Orghead out there, and it's probably also better for discussion too. We hope you like it! Well, I can only speak for myself (and Manny). I hope Mel hopes you like it too!Mel's personal Twitter and Podcast Twitter:https://x.com/dearcrownshttps://x.com/ultra_queueThe opening theme is just a cut down orguss theme and the ending theme is, uh, some other isekai anime.Email: doyourememberobotech@gmail.com

Hi it's been a while! Manny is busy with some work stuff so he is gone forever and we're not friends any more :(. Don't worry though everyone I have special new friend Mel from Ultra Queue (a podcast about watching all of Ultraman in production order) to fill in with friendship and podcasting until Manny finishes his various tasks. We are watching the middle Duper Dimension Show: Orguss, over a period of 3 episodes (and then a fourth episode with the OVA sequel.) Is Orguss good? Uhhh well we're a bit divided but it's certainly no Macross. You can watch it if you want I guess. There's a dinosaur that cheats on his girlfriend, that's pretty good.Next time: We will watch Orguss 13-24. As always, in the wise words of Linkara, the next episode will be "OUT WHEN ITS OUT" but it won't be too long probably.Here's a bunch of links:Mel's sourcing:https://futurewarstories.blogspot.com/2020/05/future-war-stories-from-east-super.htmlMel's personal Twitter and Podcast Twitter:https://x.com/dearcrownshttps://x.com/ultra_queueThe opening theme is just a cut down orguss theme and the ending theme is, uh, some other isekai anime.You can reach us at doyourememberrobotech@gmail.com

Hi! This episode we get one of the hosts of Reply All, one of my favorite podcasts of all time on! Alex Goldman is here and we discuss children's cartoons, spider crabs, and of course, small insular differences between some very boring episodes of television! Alex also reveals what I'm pretty sure still is the exclusive announcement for the release date of his new podcast!!! which is really funny and wild. If only younger Shane could see me now...having the spiritual sequel to Reply All revealed on my own podcast....after making Alex Goldman watch and discuss mid anime...Oh yeah should I talk about something that actually happened in robotech? They took out the whole plot this time that's cool of them I guess.Anyway I hope you have fun listening!!!!Standing Ovation: https://i.imgur.com/gBKYadZ.pngGoldman Plugs:Twitter: https://twitter.com/AGoldmund (go here for news of new show when it's out)Also fill out his survey please: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSflgKxS9IeksNLy6ypB_fxDgxWYdiqv_R-YdqyyDCZJDAQZLw/viewformAlex's Song: https://open.spotify.com/track/3gTaYNz8Zn2zDWaehOrT6a or Youtube link: https://youtu.be/0nfGK6MYggUNext time we will cover Robotech Episode 40 "Volunteers" and Southern Cross Episode 3 "Star Angel"Our email is doyourememberrobotech@gmail.com

Hi! It's Season 2! A little weird since we started the Masters last time technically but we're really truly in it now! More importantly we bring iconic Abnormal Mapping host Jackson on as a guest! Experience me going through the pain of being seen as Jackson participates in our GGP Pokemon knockoff with Jojo Stands!! We also talk about how cool Jeanne (and later, Yamcha) is, Manny gets lightly owned for his Lady Gaga knowledge, and we even get to explain the huge variety of differences of Robotech up till now (not all that much lol.) Please enjoy!!Next Time: Southern Cross Episode 2 "Make-up" and Robotech Episode 39 "Southern Cross"Jackson Plugs: https://www.abnormalmapping.com/(Not mentioned on the podcast but they also do Anomalous Readings- a sci fi book podcast I like a lot!: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/anomalous-readings/id1665457703Standing Ovation: https://i.imgur.com/7RAIuGr.pngOur email is doyourememberrobotech@gmail.com

Hi! Last Super Dimension Fortress Macross episode! It's been a long road, huh? Just last week we were talking about those funny little talking vending machines, and then we watched the rest of the show. Anyway here we handle the rest of the animated SDFM stuff with a bunch of music videos and then get into the meat of the episode, the first brand new exclusive original Robotech episo-Huh?Oh.Nevermind, it's mostly a clip show! Sorry if you watched it on my recommendation lol you shouldn't have done that! Anyway we get to the ACTUAL meat of the episode which is going through everyone's ranked list of Minmei songs across both shows. As I say on the show, I don't know if it's great content but we had a lot of fun doing it! Thanks again everyone for sending in your lists, and also for listening! Next time we're covering: Episode 1 of Super Dimension Cavalry Southern Cross and Episode 38 of Robotech aka the second episode of Robotech: The Masters Saga.Standing Ovation: https://i.imgur.com/gt1DJM1.pngAll the Ranking of Minmei lists: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1Yk6ojaG7bcuTV6R7-IC26URs7OkiZqY1C7dUP6Z8jg4/edit?usp=sharingOur email is doyourememberrobotech@gmail.com

It's the first episode without a direct comparison! It's also the first episode without an indirect comparison because there's nothing really going on with Codename Robotech other than me making fun of Carl Macek's bad commentary. So we're mostly just talking about the movie! Love it (Manny) or Hate it (Me) we can all agree that Hothead Henry is a better narrator the the normal guy. I hope you all appreciate the work that went into adding the bad commentary into this episode. I even went ahead and deleted like 300 of Macek's "uh's" so that the excerpt would be 2 minutes and not 40. What's that? You don't appreciate me making you listen to Carl Macek? Well, uh, okay. A little cringe there, audience. A little light for what the podcast is named after but hey look just listen to the GGP episode about the movie it's pretty good. Anyway please send your lists for the Ranking of Minmei to us at doyourememberrobotech@gmail.com! We desire your opinions! Here is the google doc with all the info again! We never really know when we're going to record but try to get it to us by 6/26 if you can.

We did it Reddit! We watched 36 episodes of anime and 36 episodes of Americanimation and even podcasted about it. We're joined by the only person we know who's watched all of Robotech, Sanga, for some brand new viewpoints! And together we explore the complicated and messy finale of both shows, and the Venn diagram of messiness between them. This is one of the longer ones we've had in a while, and it's not just because we spend the ending looking at some old horrible Geocities fansite (which I will not be linking because of the doxxing!!!).In other news I'm finally going to put the song list at the bottom here! Please send us your rankings for the ultimate RANKING OF MINMEI we would really appreciate it! (There's one songs we haven't seen yet from the movie but hey get a head start!!)Join us next time for DO YOU REMEMBER LOVE and Codename: Robotech! Please only watch the former if you're following along lmao.Standing Ovation: https://i.imgur.com/5oEfrUq.pngSDF 2: https://i.imgur.com/8J2jN1N.pngOh hey the Kickstarter is open give Grant money: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/foxbot/the-disappearances-of-lydia-fountayne?Ranking of Minmei Song List: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1ucm813JmA4JkLcLnztY7hjWuUXbd0Unelj27XxMh4vA/edit?usp=sharingPlease send your list to our email: doyourememberrobotech@gmail.com
