Can anyone help me make sense of the Macross Seven soundtracks?

Finding and organizing Macross music is a difficult process as a rule, especially with the modern series that have lots of redundant albums (some of which also seem to feature music that wasn’t ever in their respective animated material), but there’s always something labeled as either “OST” or “Soundtrack” where you can reasonably expect to find all (or at least) most of the music played in the relevant series.

But not for Macross Seven.

Every album has a different name, and none of the names clearly indicate where, specifically, the music is from. I’ve not yet seen the OVAs, so I’m not sure whether or not these albums *also* include adjacent-material that wasn’t featured in the animated works, or even if there’s a clear demarcation between OVA-based albums.

So can anyone help clarify things for me? Which M7 album is the closest to a complete OST for the TV series proper? Which ones are tied to which OVAs? Is there any one, specific album that functions like a selected “greatest hits” sort of release for all of the “biggest” M7 tracks?

Basically, I just need some direction here. Any help y’all could offer would be greatly appreciated.

So I just got a new Zojirushi rice cooker, and as part of my continuing goal of living life more dangerously, thrillseeker that I am, I decided to read through the instruction booklet only to immediately stumble over the very first step.

As you can see, I am not to blame for all those capital letters.

I am baffled, friends. I am flabbergasted. I am flummoxed, befuddled and aghast. What does this mean?

This is a pan designed to contain exactly two things: rice and water. Yet it’s apparently risky to wash the rice in it, a process that famously involves only rice and water.

Have I… have I been washing my rice wrong all this time? Should I be using soap and steel wool, perhaps? Or must I assume this coating is such a thin veneer that even the minimal friction or rice and water moving against its surface will strip it bare? I feel like there are only two possible explanations here: either my food prep has gone catastrophically wrong, or Zojirushi’s food safety standards have gone even *more* catastrophically wrong.

Please let me know just to what extent I should be racing to and from, seized by raw, animal panic.

I’ve been using YouTube music on my iPad, but it’s awful and I hate it. I really wish there were something simple, clean and ad-free I could use to organize and play my music there, just like MusicBee.

So… why *not* MusicBee? there any chance of a port in the near-or-not-so-near future? Because that would be… really very welcome.

I’m wanting to make a map that for lore reasons is divided into three concentric circles, though at this scale only two are really relevant. I’ll need one circle for the out boundary if the country and another much smaller one for the innermost province.

i know I can just create a proper image of the two circles, import it into WonderDraft, and trace over it with a border tool, but tracing by hand (or mouse, I guess) would result in tiny imperfections. These circles are meant to be boundary walls raised by magic, so they need to be perfect.

Any thoughts on how I could most easily accomplish this?
