*** REPLACE THIS LINE WITH YOUR ARCADIA ***

	The first Robotech series (Macross, Southerrn Cross, Mospeada) was
	released by Tatsinoko Films in 1983-4. Captain Harlock was done in
	the mid-1970 by Reiji Matsamoto, the same person who did Space Cruiser
	Yamato in 1976. [Yamato is over a decade old in the running. Only the
	first two seasons, and the third is ready for release, were redubbed
	into english for the US.] Queen Millenia was done in 1981-2 again by
	Reiji Matsamoto. Matsamoto has no obivious ties with the Tatsinoko
	Studios. The reason for the animation difference is time. In its time,
	Harlock was, and still is big, because of its story-line. It didn't
	have the modern state-of-the-art animation like Tatsinoko has now. All
	in all each show is done differently, and you should keep that in mind.
