Astro Plan is an Animesque Chinese series first released in January 2010. It is notorious for generating a lot of publicity not because of its plot, but rather because it is obviously copying popular Japanese anime series such as Macross Frontier, Gundam Seed, and Mobile Suit Gundam 00, and also because much of its initial promotional artwork consists of blatantly traced and copied artwork from other sources. See also promotional poster at the left. Alternatively, Astro Plan can be seen as a truly massive intentional unintentional Shout-Out to the other series mentioned on this page.
