Tochiro you are right, but also wrong The Macross do have largest base in Japan, but also there are many fans outside it too. I was watching Macross for long time on some channel on optus fetch, but they are not showing it any more. I'm from Australia by the way.. Anyway, about live-action.. Im not sure that would work. I think animated version is more suitable for sci-fi and it tickles your imagination more
