Macross FB 7 Project to Play in Theaters This Fall
posted on by Egan Loo
An insert in this week's Blu-ray Hybrid Pack release of The Super Dimension Fortress Macross: Do You Remember Love? revealed that the Macross FB 7 project will play in theaters this fall. The insert carries the tagline "Ozma Meets Fire Bomber."
The official website for the 30th anniversary of the Macross science-fiction romance franchise had confirmed in May that a "Macross 7 Project" lineup is launching as part of the anniversary celebrations. As revealed in a promotional video that played in this past spring's Macross events, the "Macross 7 Project" has three phases: a Blu-ray Disc release of the 1994-1995 Macross 7 television anime, a Fire Bomber live concert, and the tentatively titled Macross FB 7.
The details of Macross FB 7 have not been revealed, including whether it is even an anime or not. Fire Bomber is the rock band that plays a pivotal role in the Macross 7 anime (set in the year 2045). Ozma Lee is a leader of variable fighter pilots in the 2008 Macross Frontier television anime (set in the year 2059), and he reveals early on that he is a Fire Bomber fan.
