Macross fans will want to note that the website for the show's latest incarnation, Macross Frontier, has gone live. This latest spinoff takes us to the time after the war against the Zentradi aliens, when Humankind has been forced into exile, spreading across the universe in order to survive. Main characters Alto Saotome, Ranka Lee and Sheryl Nome are a part of the Macross Frontier fleet who aim to maintain the culture of humanity in the face of this terrifying threat. Apparently. As long as there are no singing brats (yes, Minmei, I'm looking at you), I'll be happy. The series goes on sale in Japan in April, and marks the 25th anniversary of the original Macross series. It'll be accompanied by two spin off manga running in Shonen Ace and Comp Ace.
