Macross
() is a series of science fiction mecha anime, created by Shōji Kawamori of Studio Nue in 1982. The franchise features a fictional history of Earth/Humanity after the year 1999. It consists of three TV series, four movies, six OVAs, one light novel and five manga series, all sponsored by Big West Advertising.
Within the series, the term ''Macross'' is used to denote the main capital ship. This theme began in the original Macross, the SDF-1 Macross.
''Overtechnology'' refers to the scientific advances discovered in an alien starship (''Alien Star Ship - One'' later renamed ''Super Dimension Fortress - One Macross'') that crashed on ''South Ataria'' island. With this technology, Earth was able to reverse engineer the technology to create the mecha (variable fighters and destroids), faster-than-light space fold drive for starships and other advanced technologies that the series features. The first TV series with edited content and a revised script was released as the first part of ''Robotech'' in the U.S.
==Title==
The series title comes from the name of the main human spacecraft (which is usually shortened from ''Super Dimension Fortress'' to ''SDF-1 Macross'' as it is the first). The original name for the ''Macross'' project was ''Battle City Megarodo'' (or ''Battle City Megaroad'', as the Japanese transliteration to either "L" or "R" gives the title a double meaning in reference to the story line: ''Megaload'', referring to the spacecraft containing an entire city of people; and ''Megaroad'', referring to the long journey through space back to Earth); however, one of the sponsors of the project, Big West Advertising, was a fan of Shakespeare and wanted the series and the spacecraft to be named . A compromise was made with the title due to its similar pronunciation to ''Macbeth'' in Japanese and because it still contained connotations to the original title. The word ''Macross'' comes from a wordplay combination of the prefix "macro" in reference to its massive size in comparison to human vehicles (though when compared with the alien ships in the series, it is a relatively small gun destroyer) and the distance they must cross.
