Charlie4 Posted May 18, 2009 Posted May 18, 2009 (edited) First, I must praise the series! I've heard a lot about Robotech, but it seemed like a show suited for young kids without a deep plot/characters. Well I stumbled upon a review of SDF Macross and learned it was the original version of Robotech. With it's rave reviews, I decided to buy it. I'm sure glad I did! There's something about the classic look and feel of it that I really took a liking to that you just don't see anymore. The story really surprised me, as well as the music. During the last episode I was on the edge of my seat with fists clenched hoping Hikaru would make the right choice regarding his love interests. I ended up listening to the Japanese audio tracks with subs. The voices/singing sounded much better. This is definitely a classic in my book. Anyway, I do have a question. I'm trying to figure out the name of the last song that starts playing as Misa's? hand closes the scrapbook and the credits start rolling in episode 36. The instrumental ballad before the singing starts is very soothing. I swear I've heard the song playing off of one of my mother's old tapes before, yet obviously it's not in English, so I'm stumped and confused. :| Can anyone place a finger on it? Am I going crazy?

Yes, you are going crazy. Because the song is "Runner," same as every other episode. The only difference is that Minmay sings it in Episode 36, rather than Makoto Fujiwara (who sings it in the other 35). And this probably belongs in the newbie thread... Oh, and welcome!
Charlie4 Posted May 18, 2009 Author Posted May 18, 2009 I must have it mixed up with another song of the 80's then. Sure is a great song though! Thanks for clearing that up for me. Makes me want to find the soundtrack now! I apologize, I didn't see the newbie thread up there.
