Robotech - War & Peace (Vol. 5)
As theMacrosssegment builds to its climax, Max shocks everyone by marrying Zentraedi pilot Miriya. Recent events give Captain Gloval's wedding speech about forgiveness, understanding, and tolerance a new poignancy. Fearing "Micronian" contamination, the Zentraedi launch an assault on Earth with 4.8 million vessels. Minmei's singing becomes a key element in the conflict, as the Zentraedi consider her bubblegum pop performances a form of "psychological assault." (They have a point.) Although the Earthlings emerge victorious, much of the planet is devastated, and the efforts of the survivors to live in peace soon founder. A new threat appears in the form of the Robotech Masters, who are attempting to resurrect Zor, the creator of the mysterious Protoculture. Unrated; suitable for ages 8 and up: Mild violence restricted to spaceship and robot battles.--Charles Solomon
