One important thing to understand about Shoji Kawamori is that his work is like fine wine. He gets truly better with age, and every next attempt of his shines with experience gathered from previous ones. The sophisticated militarism of Armored Core, elegant fantasy of Escaflowne, whimsical rebelliousness of Eureka Seven, graceful idealism of Sousei no Aquarion. Everything he touches seems to shine like gold and diamonds, except that it has much more substance.
That said, Macross Frontier is perfect. It is an animated series about a Kabuki actor, a galaxy-traveling pop-songstress and a waitress dreaming of a singing career saving the universe with a transformable mecha and music composed by Yoko Kanno. I tried looking for flaws, and there are none. Nothing is out of place. Much like, many years ago, Kawamori began his path to brilliance with Super Dimension Fortress Macross, he now soars to perfection with Macross once again.
Even if you're not a fan of mecha, give this series a chance. I guarantee that it'll change your perspective of the genre.
