Notes:
There's not a lot of concrete description of "e;what"e; this episode is.
What we can make out is that it's generally combined the first three
episodes (Boobytrap, Countdown, Space Fold) to serve as an introduction
to the series for newcomers so they can get caught-up on the story in
a self-contained manner. Specifically, this is _not_ "e;Codename: Robotech"e;,
which is another entirely different edit.
The visuals are not the same as the standalone episodes, nor is the audio.
There are also some parts that have Japanese text on-screen, however given
the context of this show, it seems it was left intentionally with no in-episode
context. This cut of the first three episodes must have been from before
they replaced any Japanese visuals for the final product.
Specifically, at 24:19 there is "e;カウントダウン"e; (kauntodaun, or "e;countdown"e;)
on-screen for 5 seconds. This is where the second episode "e;Countdown"e;
content begins. We didn't see any on-screen title for the final episode.
This is evidently a specific edit of these episodes, and we present (hah)
it to you as-is.
Enjoy!
