      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 four TV series, four movies, six OVAs, one light novel, and five manga series, all sponsored by Big West Advertising (Ref.: wikipedia).
      US version of the TV series is called Robotech.

      I haven't seen any of the OVA or movies myself but it seems there's a huge fanbase that love these series; so I'll probably give it a try.

      The game, second arcade game of the series as the name suggests, is quite nice!

      Multiple other games for consoles exist including Playstation and PSP.

      A live action movie seems also in the talks.

      Have Fun !!!

      You can find this and more hand crafted quality overlays in the rpie-ovl repository.
      And if you want an easy way to install them, @meleu created a great dedicated script.
      Perform these commands on your RetroPie:

      cd
      git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/meleu/rpie-art
      cd rpie-art
      ./rpie-art.sh
      

      After launching rpie-art.sh script you just have to follow the instructions in the dialog boxes. Once you have the rpi-art.shscript, choose the Update option to get all the latest art in the repository.

          Actually, Robotech was a Frankenstein monster created for the US by assembling 3 series : Macross, Southern Cross and Mospaeda...

          This overlay is really cool, thanks ! :)
