I have no knowledge of Macross beyond "cool toys", so I have no idea for the context of this thing, and I don't get the whole thing Japan seems to have for teen-ish looking girls, but that is so.... brilliantly weird... I just had to order it... and the Dark Jetfire / Klan Klang one. Thank you for bringing such delightful weirdness into my life
Check out the Macross Frontier series and movies sometime. Things won’t make any more sense afterward…but you’ll at least have some background…lol…
I don't know much of Robotech fiction after Macross. Watched some of the second season but it wasn't nearly as interesting. If there is some fictional context to this my guess is maybe she is Zentradi, the giant aliens in Macross. They were about the same height as the Veritechs in robot mode..
Aye that she is, she was the lead of three man all female zentradi team. Bit of a funny trivia but due to a genetic "flaw" whenever Klan went to Micronian size she ended appearing more like a little kid, a fact Mikael teased her about relentlessly(they were childhood friends). Well at least Klan used something like that in the show, Ranka didn't do jack shit in terms of fighting so that's a just because type release.
