D'oh shit! Through a legal miracle, you finally got the rights to Macross 7! There's just one catch though: You didn't get the rights to Fire Bomber's songs, so you have to create original songs to replace them. Who are you gonna get to do this?
Whoever dead the Robotech music. Robotech as good music.

Epic. Include me in the screencap.
JAM Project
Anything else is wrong.

Well obviously I hire the guy who wrote the music to record new Basara lines and music that sound sorta like the old music. Mylene's shit songs will be traditional showtunes.

Have Koyasu sing all of them obviously

>You didn't get the rights to Fire Bomber's songs
Then you spent money getting the rights to nothing. The music compilation is the only thing good about M7, m8.

Kill yourself.
I hold onto the rights and never do anything with them, no one deserves to suffer through 7.

Brendon Small. I'd probably let him write the script too. Macross 7 was absolutely horrid and it deserves to be defiled. Just imagine it. A human fleet is cutting through the brutal blackness of space. It is assailed by giant space satans who devour the souls of men. The fleet's best hope is Fire Bomber. A metal band with music so good that it rekindles people's souls and melts alien faces.

So going by this perspective, Harmony Gold was the hero all along? They allowed Plus, the only worthwhile sequel to pass after all.

I sell the license to Harmony Gold and feast upon the /m/ salt.

Brilliant idea
Basara leaves forever in search of Sivil, and Rey gets really depressed and Fire Bomber re-brands itself as a neofolk band, heavily picking up on militarized Zentrandi-era symbolism. They atract a huge crowd of older Zents, but run into legal troubles for the glorification of the Zentrandi past

To be fair HG isn't the only issue here.
Macross 7 would have been a Robotech entry without a second thought by now if they could have afforded it. The licensing cost is apparently ridiculously high for 7, and likely for the other main-series Macross shows.
Not to say HG is blameless but Macross being so expensive is the number 1 reason we'll never see anymore of it even if HG were to die off. This franchise has so much goddamn ego surrounding it on both sides of the ocean that it's almost embarrassing.

In the case of Plus they basically didn't have the actual money at the time to block it from being imported to the West, otherwise they would have. After the license expired they could which is why you haven't seen anything Plus related in the West since 2004 or so.
>>15413350
I sell the license and buy the license to a good anime.
>>15413350
Joke's on you! I'll have some proper orchestral BGM composed and reedit the show to not be about a band in the first place!
WHAT NOW CUNT?

You got it.
