So I admit that I’ve never been a “purist” who absolutely HAS to see the original Japanese versions. I’ve actually always been annoyed by the morons at comic book/role-playing game shops who are total geeks (am I dating myself using that word?) and try to act superior. I was never all that interested in seeing Superdimensional Fortress Macross, but now that I’m in my 40s I thought I’d check out the originals. I’m still midway through Southern Cross, but looked over at a video of Macross. There are no subtitles and I know MAYBE four words in Japanese so I don’t understand a word they’re saying. I was watching the episode where Hayao/Ben and Max/Max are introduced and they head to the restaurant. Of course, the scene cut out of Robotech is included and we see Hayao/Ben head toward a place called The Black Cat…
...question… is the Black Cat an establishment that features “massages” or one that features “dancing”? Perhaps it’s a place to bathe?
