I guess Gubaba and you are talented then, because I've tried, really, and the only thing I got was frustration, It's like spoiling yourself while "reading" or watching something. I know a few words (spoken) and expressions in japanese, but I cant figure out anything with just spare words.
I´d buy official Macross material if it was translated to english anytime. (it's clear that my native language is not english though)
I will study and do the right thing, and support my loved Macross as your signature says, but for now...
