Macross Zero
Synopsis:
When Lieutenant Shin Kudou of the UN air force is shot down over the Pacific by the Anti-UN Alliance, he awakens on a lush island called Mayan, whose natives live by some very strange rules. Their spiritual leader, Sara, intends to keep their lives separate from the rest of civilization to prevent the rise of the ‘birdman’ who will destroy the world. Unfortunately for the natives of Mayan, both sides of the conflict have taken an interest in their island, and all too soon, the outsiders' interference spells a disaster as terrible as any myth.

add recWhile Macross Zero makes just about every other cgi anime before it more or less obsolete, Blue Submarine nonetheless stands up admirably well despite the age difference. The plots both involve some apocalyptic themes that surface late in each show, and both sacrifice character development in order to showcase their visuals. Blue Submarine is definitely inferior to Macross Zero, but both should provide a reasonably entertaining experience for those looking for excellent CGI.

Enter Jinto, a nobleman and ambassador of the recently acquired Hyde system whose duty is to represent his peoples' interests and rule on the Abh's behalf. In order to be officially coronated to this position, a cold-but-beautiful Abh princess named Lafiel arrives at Hyde to escort him back to the empire's capital.
