Hello, been a Macross fan fairly recently (Since November), but I've already been hooked with almost the entire franchise (there's only Delta), and I'm curious to learn more. I've been curious about a certain thing in the world of the franchise.
I know in Macross II "Lost Zentradi" were dealt with the Minmay Attack, rendering them to be considered a non-threat. But in the main continuity it seems the default reaction from a UN colony in the advent of a Zentradi fleet, big or small, is to annihilate them on sight like with the Chlore Fleet in 7. iirc I read once of Project M's purpose in researching song energy in Macross 7 was to expose uncultured Zentradi through music during the battlefield. This is making me wonder prior to that, could there have been instances in the main continuity that there was a Zentran fleet that was "Culture Shocked" like Gol Boddole Zer's fleet prior to the events of 7?
