I really enjoyed your reviews on Macross Flashback 2012 & Cosmo Police Justy(I loved that Viz mini-series).

Nice review, but you may want to remove the "other short scenes to conclude the story for all the major characters" phrase. I have the Story Board and Dialogue book and the "new" ending tacked on in 1992's DYRL Perfect Edition is pretty accurate to what the storyboards originally called for. The only differences are 1) Minmay is obviously younger in the original storyboard, 2) Minmay's stage outfit is different, and 3) the only scene actually missing is one of Hikaru and Misa sitting in the audience. Keep up the good work!

edit: It's not really a biggie, but 1992's DYRL Perfect Edition was also released on VHS. IIRC, it was around $100 back then And that's not even accounting for inflation.

Sad....that was the last time We ever saw Minmei and Hikaru.

All erased when the Megaroad-01 suffered an Amelia Earnhardt-style disappearance weeks before the Rio Olympics. Even with an intentional cruise to the black hole in the centre of the milky way galaxy was considered as the culprit, the fans keep on debating up to this day, some coming up with a separate Zentradi ambush, an accidential and irreversible shutdown of the NAVCOM systems, Hiraku/Misa/Miku/Minmay/Kaifun escaping to a "safer planet" by the escape pods, all of those keep on being debated independently from Studio Nue's original remarks.
