The year is 2031 and following the defeat of the Robotech
Masters by Earth's Robotech Force, headed by Dana Sterling's
15th Tactical Squad, the planet faces a new threat. The spread
of the Protoculture spores across vast swathes of the Earth's
surface has not gone unnoticed. The mysterious alien race
known as the Invid, arch enemies of the Robotech Masters,
launch a full scale invasion of Earth. The remaining inhabitants
of the planet must struggle to survive against the new alien
threat. With only a ragtag collection of guerrilla fighters
to defend them, the survivors can only pray for the return
of the long forgotten Robotech Expeditionary Force (REF) to
save them from total annihilation...
The
original transforming robot series, Robotech almost
single-handedly introduced anime to the Western world and
sparked the transforming robot phenomenon of the 1980s. Now
the Robotech saga enters its final chapter in Robotech:
New Generation - Volume 2, the final collection of two
DVD volumes that together complete the epic 85 episode series.
Released
on DVD as a two-disc Special Collector's Edition, Volume
2 features 13 digitally remastered episodes with new opening
and closing credits and including extended footage originally
edited from the broadcast version, all presented in a limited
edition deluxe slipcase.
The
final act of the original Robotech series begins as
an advance rescue mission mounted by the Mars Base Division
of the Robotech Expeditionary Forces is wiped out by the Invid.
Scott Bernard, one of the few survivors of the battle, leads
a colourful band of freedom fighters in a campaign to seek
out and destroy Reflex Point, the Invid stronghold. Along
the way, Scott and the others are forced to look inside themselves
to discover hidden strength and the determination to carry
on in the face of overwhelming odds.
Throughout
this final chapter, many of the mysteries of Protoculture
are revealed, including the role the Invid play in this complex,
dramatic intergalactic saga. It all adds up to an essential,
must-see experience for Robotech fans.
An
entertaining collection that concludes one of the most groundbreaking
anime shows to be released to a Western audience.
