For the Macross franchise, Word of God says that all the anime works are TV shows or movies within the universe; whether any particular work is animated or live action in universe seems unclear. Translation of the interview here: https://ghostlightning.wordpress.com/2010/11/17/is-kawamoris-macross-your-macross/

But there is no mention of this fact in the media itself (except for the movie Do You Remember Love, which is already listed in Recursive Canon).

So, if there is a mention in the media, it's Recursive Canon. If the idea that the show is a show in its own universe is fan-produced, it's Literary Agent Hypothesis. And here we have it in Word of God but not in the media - so which of the tropes is it?
