AfterRobotech: The Shadow Chronicleswas released in 2007, hopes for the future ofRobotechwere once again in doubt.
It took a lot of talking.
A lot of fans at conventions and in e-mails asked, When will we see Love Live Alive?
That was one thing we were constantly asked since like 2005, McKeever says.
We knew there was a demand there.
The Harmony Gold team learned theMospeadaOVA had never been licensed for a very understandable reason.
It was mostly a clip show of music videos strung together with a bit of new animation.
Along the way Harmony Gold restructured the style of the special and removed the music video aspect of it.
Glovals Report was a clip show that had been assembled by the Japanese, Yune says.
It was half way into the Macross saga and was to get people up and running with the story.
At the end of the film it was reveled that former enemies Sera and Lancer were expecting a baby.
This explained why Lancer wasnt present in the plotline ofShadowChronicles, which many fans had questioned.
When the movie was released in 2013 it received a fairly negative response from fans.
Speaking in 2016, Kevin McKeever said the film generated more interest in theRobotechfranchise overall.
We kept getting questions, I just sawLove Live Alive.
Is there a prequel movie I can watch?
Well yes, there are eighty-five episodes!
Even clips ofRobotechare better than a lot of whats being made today.
