		To be fair, Carl Macek does deserve a tremendous amount of credit because without his efforts it's very possible that the anime industry in both America and Japan would not exist as it does today.
		However, fans from that time still condemn Carl Macek for his resolute insistence during personal appearances and interviews that he was staunchly defending the cultural and artistic integrity of anime in America when the results of Streamline's video output clearly show otherwise.
		Macek has been away from direct involvement in the anime industry, his reputation among anime fans has largely been lost to time and attrition.

		In the mid ’80s, Macek the Visionary created "Robotech," which, in terms of its content, was one of the most ambitious animated series ever seen on American television.
		Macek the Butcher, to get to his other persona, also rewrote plotlines, replaced the music and, in his view, "improved" various aspects of the original stories.
		Two of the series Macek used for "Robotech" were "Southern Cross" and "Mospeada." The first was a flop in Japan while the second was only a modest success.

	AMR Glossary: Carl Macek
		Carl Macek, depending on who you ask, is either one of the pioneers of releasing anime into western markets, or one of the great evils of the world.
		The problem, as seen in robotech and others, is that he felt free to heavily modify the original source for a western release.
		Some argument exists as whether this was to get it in western media at all, whether he considered it as his own artistic contribution or whether he just couldn't keep his hands off making changes.

		At Akon 6 in June 1995 I interviewed Carl Macek for about 45 minutes about Nadia and I discovered that he was in the process of finishing the rest of the series in a edited form, and that it would come out in eight volumes in 1996.
		I called Macek and he told me that they had not done anything more since I talked to him the year before (no more work on the scripts, no recording sessions, nothing) and that it was now all up to Orion Home Video (Streamline's new distributor).
		Their focus is on current US releases in anime, and for the past year all of us (Trish, Carl Horn, Julie, and myself) were working on the assumption that the article would run after about four or five of the eight volumes had been released.

		A former animation art gallery owner and self-professed "war-rior/scholar" of pop culture, Carl Macek had been itching to see a Japanese anime show translated for American audiences which would remain true to its roots.

Macek shifted the years around, made some characters decendants of others, incorporated footage from one series into another and added in voive-overs, thereby creating a full 85-episode season, in less than five months!
		Today, Macek is working with Harmony Gold on a proposed Robotech 3000 series, and is proud of the original show.
