Super Dimensional Fortress Macross II: The Movie is a 1993 anime movie produced by L.A. Hero, Inc. It is a compilation of the Super Dimensional Fortress Macross II: Lovers Again OVA.

Synopsis

Hibiki Kanzaki, an investigative reporter for Scramble News Network (SNN), is caught in the battle when he inadvertently allies himself with Ishtar, an enigmatic and beautiful Zentradi princess who has been isolated from human culture. Enlisting the help of a spirited Valkyrie pilot Silvie Gena, Hibiki rushes to save Ishtar from imminent reprogramming by hostile Zentradi. Silvie and Hibiki must subsequently race back to Earth, broadcast the truth about the Zentradi invasion, and convince the powerful military complex U.N. Spacey to reactivate the ancient Macross fortress and defend Earth one more time [1].

Production

Release

Tara Releasing distributed the movie in theaters.[2]

U.S. Renditions released Macross II in 1992 and 1993, dubbed into English, on three VHS cassettes each containing two episodes. L.A. Hero released the series in 1993 as a movie in a limited number of theaters across the US as a 150-minute film on 35 mm film.[3]

Manga Entertainment consolidated the six episodes in 1995 into a single VHS cassette called Macross II: The Movie. This compilation removed the opening and ending credits for episodes 2 through 5, as well as the episode previews. It was released as two VHS cassette variations: the first contained the English dub and the second contained the original Japanese dialogue with English subtitles.

In 2000, Macross II: The Movie was released on DVD by Manga Entertainment. This DVD included both the English dub and the original Japanese dialogue with English subtitles. Bonus materials included a music video (actually a creditless closing theme), four character profiles and an image and mechanical designs gallery.

Macross II: The Movie was released as a downloadable video rental on the Xbox Live Marketplace for the Xbox 360 by Starz. This release only included the English dub and it was in standard definition. Manga Entertainment released Macross II in 2008 as a downloadable video purchase on the iTunes Store in its original six-episode format with each episode available individually. The episodes only include the English dub and they are in standard definition.

On May 2, 2011 a new version of the English dub movie was uploaded by Manga Entertainment to their YouTube channel. This version only contains episodes 1 through 4. [4]
