Robotech, an 85-episode science-fiction television series about three successive invasions of Earth from space, was one of the first anime released in the United States to preserve the complexity and drama of its original Japanese source material.
Robotech was originally released in 1985 in first-run syndication, meaning it was sold directly to local television stations without having been run on a network first.
Robotech broke with this tradition by leaving in some of those elements, and is thought by some to be the show that kicked off American interest in Japanese animation, leading to a boom in North American consumption of anime that is still growing as of this writing.

 Robotech General Info
Robotech was the brainchild of Carl Macek who, working with the company Harmony Gold USA, wanted to do a faithful adaptation of a Japanese Animation import (as opposed to previous Japanimation shows which had been butchered down to kiddie-fare level when brought to North America).
Robotech: The Movie would bridge the Macross and Southern Cross portions of the original series by relating the events that took place after the Robotech Expeditionary Force left Earth but before the war with the Robotech Masters.
Like the Robotech series the movie contained violence and mature themes, but in some cases theater owners, thinking the movie was "just a cartoon", promoted it as suitable for young children, leading to outrage from parents who brought their kids.

Leave it to the Zentraedi to keep the Robotech Defense Force (RDF) on its well-armored toes at all times.
Relentless in their attempts to destroy Macross City and the SDF-1 (Super Dimensional Fortress, for those not in the know), the Zentraedi are a force to be reckoned with over and over and over again.
There are initially five characters with varying skill sets to choose from at the start of Robotech: The Macross Saga, but the bottom line is always the same: kill or be killed by the endless waves of invading spacecraft and mecha warriors.

In the ensuing rebuilding, the RDF and the forces onboard the SDF-1 would play a pivotal role in the reconstruction of the Earth's society, which was now also populated by the many of the surviving Zentraedi who had chosen to embrace a new life without war.
The Meltrandi forces are smaller in number than their male counterparts, but are also equipped with much higher-quality weapons of war.
