Confessions 10: Bobby Margot

Alot of people like Macross Frontier. And alot of people like the characters in it. Ranka? Sure, cute. Sheryl? Okay, she's not bad. Klan Klan? Heck, I wouldn't pass her up. But most people miss the real point. The honest-to-goodness truth, hidden deep inside Macross Frontier: Bobby Margot. The real soul, the real binding friend who held everyone together. Without Bobby, I believe everyone else you guys like would be dead, injured, or ruined. The real hero of Macross Frontier is Bobby, our bandana-wearing, smooth-talking, former hair-stylist friend.

Except to me, he's more than a friend. Bobby Margot, I love you.

Bobby, being the pilot of the SMS Macross Quarter is a tough job, and I can really appreciate all the work you've put into it. It really shows you're a hard worker. Sure, the commander might give you orders, but in the end, who's the one who really turns the steering wheel? (And let me say, you really turn my steering wheel.) Bobby Margot! You're the guy who, in the end, truly saves the day and all the lives aboard.

Not only that, when the crew is in danger, you're totally GAR and can break through the heavens! You're not some stereotype, you're the real deal! And talk about that amazing beard and hair -- now THAT'S GAR. There's a reason you've earned the magnificent nickname GARBY. Bobby Margot, you are fantastic. Plus, you don't hide your feelings. I'm pretty sure Ozma knows all about this, but what about me?

Also, you're sweet and sensitive when you need to be. That's the best thing about you, really. You can read the situation well and react accordingly. You're the guy everyone can confide in, and you really listen. Most importantly? You give the best advice, you know what you're doing, and frankly, you're probably the most aware of the real problems people have. That's also probably why all the girls on the crew like you so much. But they can't have you, Bobby Margot, you're all mine.

So how about it, can you and I take a ride on your spaceship?
