Macross Delta's Walkure idol group is currently undergoing their final run of performances. Delta was first launched in 2016 as the latest incarnation of the Macross franchise and Walkure has had quite the longevity since then. I've actually never seen the full Walkure group in person. We were lucky enough to see JUNNA (Mikumo) and Minori Suzuki (Freyja) at Anime Expo in 2017 as part of Anisong World Matsuri, but never the whole group.

Macross is a franchise that has been around for, as of 2022, 40 years. This all started back in 1982 with Super Dimension Fortress Macross.  While I wasn't able to see it until many years later, it's not an exaggeration to say that Macross is what brought me into anime. Giant robots, epic battle scenes, swarms of missiles; Macross was quite thrilling for young me. Macross is also the thing that first brought me to Anime Expo back in 2010. I was a big fan of Macross Frontier and the announcement that May'n and Megumi Nakajima would be in Los Angeles was what pushed me to go. A big part of Macross has always been the music, and having these two artists perform their craft in America is something I didn't know if I'd ever be able to see again.
