Macross streaming on Disney+ (under the "Star" label; Star/Hulu of D+)

[Master Dex]

Yeah I'm aware but they still brand content with it. All anime in the US that Disney licenses has a clear Hulu label on it and you can watch it with just a Hulu subscription if that's all you have. This hasn't changed yet.

I'm in the US and these search results are new to me -- nothing available to stream yet, but probably a good sign that things might happen soon?

Finally happening! Good job to everyone that contacted Disney and complained. If only we could do the same to Harmony Gold to let us have Macross and DYRL.

Well, there we go. Good to see it.

It is weird to me that Flashback 2012 is okay but SDF and DYRL aren't.

My interpretation of the settlement was that FB2012's designs were sufficiently different from DYRL, and rendered several years after HG's purchase, that there was no argument to make that HG could claim ownership, a la II and Plus.

I will say, I have been impressed by the subtitles on the Disney+ releases.

I can't point to any specific instances off the top of my head, but I do feel that I have gained some new insight into certain areas of the Macross animes, when compared to the older fansub releases.

Finally got power back today and internet is coming in much better. It’s great to see those little space savers on Hulu and really gonna celebrate the addition of Macross content.

If Disney's dubs are any indication that makes sense.  Their Valley of the Wind dub is excellent and the other dubs they did were all excellent as well.  Having Billy Crystal for Howl's Moving Castle certainly helps of course.

This is great news to come back to the Forums for!!!

I wonder if the Save and the other members that were previously involved in the subs worked on these also.

I think it might be fun if we all set an alarm for when everything finally drops on Hulu and just start playing Flashback 2012, just cause it would show an awkward interest in an obscure entry in the Macross releases. I know it would definitely be difficult for some since east coast has it set for 3am, but could hop up and turn it on and go right back to bed with it playing in another room or something.

Just a silly idea though for nothing more than giving a boost to the only thing that really has a bit from the og show.

We could all watch it at 10:12pm local time?
