We had this already: It's called
Macross 7.
(Basara/Mylene/Gamlin) It's 49 episodes, go check it out.
I really don't believe Kawamori envisioned Mirage
headlining a Macross. I mean, he could give her an ace title (originally desired to); however, it's
Freyja who technically,
technically headlines Macross Delta.
Plus, if we're going to talk about which character should headline a Macross, I remember how Alto is the "lead" in Frontier and both girls outshine him in
every form for the
entire series,
especially in every other media format aside from the light novel and video games (where it's kind of necessary for him to shine).
Only difference is, Alto is given a solid character arc in the series and even as his two girlfriends (I'm being generous for the dude) outshine him, there's still a Point A to Point B for his character enough for you to feel a little satisfied with him.
Personally, I believe Delta had one
too many characters for a 26 episode series. Obviously Kawamori really liked Durarara!! and wanted to give it a shot of a cast of 50+ characters for a 25 episode series LOL
