Anime: A Critical Introduction maps the genres that have thrived within Japanese animation culture, and shows how a wide range of commentators have made sense of anime through discussions of its generic landscape. From the battling robots that define the mecha genre through to Studio Ghibli's dominant genre-brand of plucky shojo (young girl) characters, this book charts the rise of anime as a globally significant category of animation. It further thinks through the differences between anime's local and global genres: from the less-considered niches like nichijo-kei (everyday style anime) through to the global popularity of science fiction anime, this book tackles the tensions between the markets and audiences for anime texts. Anime is consequently understood in this book as a complex cultural phenomenon: not simply a “genre,” but as an always shifting and changing set of texts. Its inherent changeability makes anime an ideal contender for global dissemination, as it can be easily re-edited, translated and then newly understood as it moves through the world's animation markets. As such, Anime: A Critical Introduction explores anime through a range of debates that have emerged around its key film texts, through discussions of animation and violence, through debates about the cyborg and through the differences between local and global understandings of anime products. Anime: A Critical Introduction uses these debates to frame a different kind of understanding of anime, one rooted in contexts, rather than just texts. In this way, Anime: A Critical Introduction works to create a space in which we can rethink the meanings of anime as it travels around the world.

Based on the cult classic animated series, ROBOTECH: THE MACROSS SAGA VOL. 4 is a sci-fi extravaganza of fast-paced action, high-tech battles, and burgeoning romance. Years ago when the SDF-1 crashed on Earth, the world knew that the alien spacecraft was the harbinger of an extraterrestrial invasion. Using the technology from the galactic warship, humans quickly began to develop biomechanical weapons to prepare for the upcoming onslaught. Now as the war reaches a fateful critical stage and another hero falls in battle, the alien Zentraedi enact an aggressive campaign to destroy the Earth's only hope of victory, the lost SDF-1 spaceship.

In the mid-80s, producer Carl Macek was recruited by Harmony Gold to create Robotech for the US market. Carl deftly edited three Japanese anime series and tied them together into an epic 85-episode saga (told across three chapters: The Macross Saga, The Masters, and The New Generation). The stories continued in Robotech II: The Sentinels and The Shadow Chronicles… In 2017, Titan Comics’ Robotech series began. The Macross Saga was retold but certain plot elements changed… Captain Gloval died, Rick Hunter went blind, and an adult, time-displaced Dana Sterling was eventually introduced, way before she was supposed to appear… And now the saga continues. Welcome to Robotech Remix…

The SDF-1 has been in the midst of a long journey back to Earth. Along the way, the SDF-1’s Captain, Henry Gloval, was killed under mysterious circumstances and Lisa Hayes took over his position… Rick appears to have gone blind, but has somehow developed a different kind of vision – possibly connected to the Protoculture that powers Robotechnology. He is now concerned that Minmei has also been affected…. Minmei and Rick brought Minmei’s cousin, Kyle from Aluce Base to the SDF-1, and Miriya took revenge on Max Sterling by attacking him in space. The flight led to Miriya crashing through into the SDF-1, in the middle of Macross City and unleashing Invid warriors on Macross City as a distraction… Miriya was finally defeated and ejected out into space by Rick Hunter and Max Sterling, while the shock return of Karl Riber, previously reported as K.I.A. helped to turn the tide of battle. Meanwhile, Admiral Hayes of Alaska Base unleashed the devastating power of the Grand Cannon on the Zentraedi Battle Fortress, seriously damaging their flagship and forcing their fleet to withdraw. Back on board the SDF-1, Claudia attempted to confront Roy, not realizing he was an evil clone created by Dr. Lazlo Zand.

After an attack by an alien race – the Zentraedi – Earth’s Super-Dimension Fortress was forced to space-fold away, taking a chunk of Macross City with them. The SDF-1 is now in the midst of a long journey back to Earth. The humans foiled a more recent attack by the arrogant Zentraedi Commander Khyron, but Breetai is hatching a new plan to infiltrate the SDF-1… In the meantime, Claudia is investigating how Captain Gloval died, and on Minmei’s birthday, Rick closes in for a kiss…
