Fair enough. But Tak and Magnus were arguing that the DIRECTOR is the most important person, and any criticism should be laid at their feet, since they call the shots.

So SDFM, DYRL, Macross Plus, The Daichis, Shanghai Dragon, Spring and Chaos, and possibly Aquarion 2 and Arjuna don't. What's you point?
