Macross Zero makes NO sense.

Didn't I tell you to go watch Robotech the whole series. Believe it or not although its three different animes put together, they make more sense then the Macross sequals. The books are amazing and so were the comics by Wildstorm. Macross Zero although beautiful makes some chronological inconsistencies. Protoculture is a form of energy derived from placing the seeds of the Invid Flower of Life in a matrix that prevents them from dividing. This energy source is completely clean, abundant, and because of this, the Robotech Masters' entire empire depended on it. Protoculture is also somehow involved in genetic engineering technologies of both the Invid and the Robotech Masters, though the details (from the show) are uncertain. This word was mainly used in Robotech not Macross so its a little confusing when they used it on Macross Zero.
