Some people are still wrongly believing that the Macross franchise is streaming worldwide on Disney+ and/or Hulu. Nah. Truth is, it's only streaming in Japan and some Asian and English-speaking countries. That's more or less 20 countries when the service is active in more than 100. You're welcome.

So it seems that the Macross franchise is finally reaching Latin America with an incoming theater screening of Macross Plus the movie. Lol. Took them only 4 years. Reminder that, with the very exception on France only because of Anime Limited French branch, Europe still didn't get anything.

Third quarter of 2025 and Macross sequels are still missing on Disney+ for most of the world. Reminder : a global release was announced back in March 2024, effectively started summer 2024 for Asian and English audience with the last roll out in January this year for the US.

Most of the world cannot watch Macross sequels on Disney+ due to region lock and lack of translation, but most of the world might be able to enjoy SDF Macross on Crunchyroll soon. Quite hilarious. Pretty sure nobody expected that.

At least this is available nearly worldwide and not only in a few selected territories like the streaming on Disney+. Good point for Big West. www.youtube.com/@macrossch22... #Macross

I guess either Big West don't want to team up with Crunchy "Robotech" roll, or Crunchyroll doesn't have any interest on releasing old IPs physically. In any case @alltheanime.com saved Macross again. That's a very good news for us in France. And probably the greatest news of the year for me.

Surprisingly the Macross Plus Collector's Edition (including both the OVA series and movie) is remaining an Anime Limited French exclusivity that is even not available in the UK. Maybe that's a counterpart for not having the Macross franchise on our local Disney+😂

Movie you've watched more than six times with a gif. Hard mode: no Star Wars, Star Trek, lord of the rings or marvel.

Seems that Gundam GQuuuuuuX's final episode broke the web. Take note for the next Macross, Big West. It happens when you stream in more than 200 countries with about 30 subs and dozen of dubs.

Given the timing, I suspect the live-viewing for English audience to be one of the major announcement at the Anime Expo panel. As usual the rest of the world (non Asian, non English audience, so most of the world) will be left apart. Trust me bro, the Macross worldwide take off is a goddamn success😂

Whatever "global" success or "worldwide" bright future Big West might talk about, just keep in mind that the Macross franchise is streaming in less than 20 countries while Disney+ is active in more than 100. It simply does not exist outside Asia and English-speaking territories.

Alors ça non plus c'était pas dans mon bingo 2025. Nouvelle série, nouveaux personnages. C'est le grand retour des Samouraï de l'Eternel chez Sunrise à partir de janvier 2026.

Interesting. So we live in a world where Big West and Creative Sphere failed on bringing the Macross sequels on Disney+ in continental Europe, while Crunchyroll may soon release the original series on streaming. Which was already hinted months ago by the Robotech official X account.

Hasard calendaire, c'est l'anniv de Kaname et on revoit ce soir un excellent film qui hélas, et malgré les annonces, est toujours inaccessible dans la plupart des territoires desservis par son diffuseur international. Un jour peut-être Big West, Creative Sphere, Disney+ ? #Macross

Tiens, ça a le blocage facile ici aussi on dirait. Désolé d'être factuel sur l'exploitation "mondiale" de la saga Macross et d'en avoir marre d'attendre dans l'incertitude en étant ignoré par les ayants droit.

In case someone's still care, the #Macross franchise remains unavailable on Disney+ outside Japan, SEA and English countries. It's streaming in less than 20 countries out of the more than 100 Disney+ is active in. No statement from Big West about what went wrong, but we can guess. What a failure.

Résumé de la conférence Macross au Comic Con de Londres

Quelques annonces intéressantes d'ATA UK à la MGM London (Dandadan, Carole & Tuesday et surtout Oshi no Ko), en espérant qu'ATA FR se positionne rapidement. Rien sur Macross, mais la logique voudrait que ce soit demain. Quel intérêt sinon de proposer un panel ? Pour parler 45min de Plus et Zero ?

📺Après Macross Plus, retour sur Macross Zero, une série dont la gestation n’a pas été des plus simple et qui pourtant constitue un pivot important dans l’évolution de la franchise. www.journaldujapon.com/2025/05/22/m...

Anime Limited Macross panel in a few days. Since Disney+ and Big West are most likely not planning to release the franchise on streaming outside Japan, Asia and English countries, fingers crossed for more Macross physical announcements from ATA UK, I hope followed by ATA FR 🤞

- Pour les Etasuniens, j'espère enfin des news sur les coffrets Blu-ray; - Pour les pays non asiatiques et non anglophones, je n'attends strictement plus rien, ils n'existent pas pour eux; - Pour la France en particulier, mieux vaut se tourner vers la conf ATA UK en fin de mois, et espérer. #Macross

ATA UK tiendra deux panels lors de la MCM Comic Con de Londres fin mai, dont un dédié à Macross. Espérons de nouvelles annonces qui ricocheront aussi chez nous via ATA FR. Ne rêvons plus, le déploiement de Macross en France ne viendra clairement pas de Disney+.

The first third of 2025 is ending and there's still no statement from both Big West and Disney+ about the Macross franchise roll out on Disney+ for the non Asian, non English audience. At this point I'm wondering if anyone from these companies is still caring about the forgotten territories 1/3

La plateforme ADN qui récupère progressivement la saga Fate pour la France et probablement l'Allemagne, c'est tellement beau. Pendant ce temps t'as Disney+ qui bloque le streaming de la saga Macross dans une grosse partie du monde, avec ou sans la bénédiction de Big West, on ne sait pas trop.

Du (très) bon et du moins bon dans cette reprise de TLOU. Je suis sous le charme de Dina et de sa dynamique avec les autres perso. Par contre la première scène de l'épisode, c'est carton rouge et ça ruine en partie l'intrigue pour ceux qui n'ont pas joué au jeu.

Elle me plait bien cette affiche. Vivement. Et je sens que je vais encore plus vouloir une adaptation de Gunnm après ça.

ATA FR a refait ma journée 😍

Time to watch the first episode of Gundam GQuuuuuuX on Amazon Prime. As announced, dozen of dubs and three dozens of subs. It's good to see the worldwide release well handled, contrary to Macross mess on Disney+. Take notes for the next entry, Big West.

Bon je crois que le coffret collector Macross Plus est en train de pleurer dans son coin. On notera le joli boîtier scanavo double face, les cartes différentes des visuels japonais et surtout l’épais livret intégralement traduit en français. Le poster de M. Tenjin aussi 👍

Anime Limited French brand saves the day one more time with the Macross Zero Blu-ray box French edition. Reminder that Disney+ is still excluding Macross sequels from streaming in continental Europe (and many other territories) without any statement, and with Big West remaining quiet on this issue.

Big West and Disney+ remain silent as a grave about the streaming of the Macross sequels outside Asia and English-speaking territories (which is not good sign) but at least this pavement has arrived. And the Macross Zero Blu-ray French edition is coming in a few days. Better than nothing huh ?

So we’ll have a global release of a SRW with Macross content before Disney+ makes Macross series and movies available worldwide, huh ?

TAKE ME TO SUMMER SIDE🎷 Pas question de louper l’arrivée d’Orange Road sur ADN, même si je dois me contenter de mon téléphone.

Beaucoup aimé l’épisode du jour de Kenshin, qui signe aussi la fin d’une saison 2 qui aura été bien meilleure que la première, à tous les niveaux. Vivement la suite.

Next you should speak about how the Macross rollout on Disney+ is a mess, excluding three quarters of the world without any statement. And maybe ask Big West and Disney+ about what’s going on and if it’s still worth to wait for the countries left apart.

One year later, the Macross rollout on Disney+ is a total mess, going from “worldwide release” to “streaming in Asia and the Anglosphere only” without any statement or delay for the three quarters of the world that haven’t got anything yet. What went wrong Big West ?

Really doing my best to be positive about Macross, but seeing how the Disney+ rollout is a total mess, excluding three quarters of the world in a deafening silence and with no explanation, doesn't help to be confident about what comes next. One thing is certain : Disney+ MUST be avoided.

Un excellent thread de @sergorndragon.bsky.social résumant deux décennies de conflit entre Big West et Harmony Gold autour de Macross.

Wasn't expecting the new Gundam series to be a Prime exclusive, but hell, a 240 countries simulcast😅 That's why we absolutely need Sunrise to handle the worldwide release of the next Macross, in addition to animation production. Disney+ and its more or less 20 countries was a terrible choice.

Le culot ultime dans toute sa splendeur. Ca fait un an qu'on attend qu'ils communiquent sur la saga Macross séries et films, et voilà que Disney+ France annonce en grande pompe l'arrivée d'un truc déjà dispo sur 99% des plateformes de streaming. Bande de guignols. Vous ne méritez pas un centime.

Still funny to see people strongly believing that the Macross stuff is available worldwide on Disney+, Star or Hulu. Repeat after me 📣 "it's only available in SEA and English-speaking territories". Just check the available subtitles : English, Chinese, Korean. That's all.

So we won't see anything new before 2026 at best. At least they're giving time for Disney+ to release the Macross stuff in the hundred countries that were discarded for no reason🤡 Remember kids, Macross is currently streaming in about 20 countries out of the more than 120 Disney+ is active in.

Less than 1 day. Finger crossed the next Macross won't be a Disney+ exclusive, otherwise we'll never get it in continental Europe.

March is coming and I'm confident Disney+ will release the Macross stuff in continental Europe this month. ... Nah, just kidding, they definitely have discarded us for whatever reason. Most likely a not-worth-the-cost, overpriced and too-complex-for-them localization. Morons, let's keep polite.

Still good to see that Macross Delta Zettai Live reception is generally positive. It's a great yet heartbreaking movie. Now if only Disney+ could do his job and release the Macross series and movies outside Asia and the Anglosphere...

News about the next Macross are finally coming. Excited but no too much. If a worldwide simulcast is announced, let's hope France and continental Europe won't be skipped this time like they were for the Disney+ streaming.

Waaaa premier fan espagnol de Macross que je vois reprocher à Big West et Disney+ l'absence de streaming en Espagne, disant à juste titre qu'ils ne tiennent pas leur engagement. Dont acte, même si en France on a ATA qui compense un peu, on sera toujours là pour rappeler cette promesse non tenue.

Bon, il faut bien admettre que j'ai frissonné devant cet éveil transcendental (fallait absolument que je le cale, désolé) et les alliés qui se relèvent encore et toujours, galvanisés par la volonté de Gokû. Nul doute qu'Arinsu ne parviendra pas à ses fins. #DragonBallDAIMA

Ca a l'air plus palpitant que Shooting Insight. Dommage que Big West et Disney+ trainent autant des pieds pour rendre accessible les films et séries Macross en France et en Europe continentale, comme c'est déjà le cas en Asie du Sud-Est et en Anglophonie.

February 2025. Nobody cares but kindly reminder that the Macross series and movies are still unavailable on Disney+ in continental Europe, Latin America, Middle-East, and basically in all non Asian, non English-speaking territories. And that's a bunch of countries huh #マクロス
