Looking up at the purple panorama of the galaxy highway...
...a shooting star pierces my heart.
My accelerating heartbeat is
synchronized with the sleepless city...
...and I suddenly pray for the unseen tomorrow...
...that brings that melody.
A mysterious voice won't let me go.
Oh, tell me seventh moon, this frustrated heart...
...where will you take me to?
To sway in the blue seventh moon...
...searching for the answer to the rhythm in this crazy dance.
In the year 2009, humanity encountered its first alien race.
The result was an intergalactic war with a militaristic race of giants called Zentraedi.
The Earth was thrown into what seemed a never-ending crisis.
In the year 2010, March, the war was brought to an end.
In April of the same year, the New Unity Government was established...
...calling together mankind and Zentraedi into peaceful co-existence.
This resulted in a mass micronization of the remaining Zentraedi via the "Micron Process."
In September of 2011, the Unity Government devised a colonization plan...
...centered upon the preservation of the human race.
In September of the next year, the first colonial transport...
...the Megaroad One began its journey.
In September of 2030, the first of the new Macross-class transports...
...a gigantic vessel dwarfing its Megaroad predecessor, departed Earth.
These ships could carry in excess of one million people.
In 2038, the 37th colonial expedition, the 7th Macross fleet, launched from Earth orbit.
Its destination -- the Galactic Core.
It is now 2045...
First Contact
All right, all right, all right, all right, all right !
All right, all right, all right.
Sorry to keep you waiting, Ray. I'm just about to take off...
Take off where ?
M...Mom ?
Now switch on the monitor !
Don't yell at me like that.
Well ! Just look at you !
Gimme a break. You're the one who wanted the monitor on !
Mylene. Mylene !
Mylene, can't you do something about this music ?
I can't do everything at once.
Mylene, if you really want to continue being in a rock band, I'll let you.
You mean it ?
I mean it.
I can even provide your band with some work, if you'd like.
Really ?
Yes, really.
All right ! I love you !
But, there's one condition.
It figures.
Take a look at this.
Who's this ?
He's Unified Forces ace pilot, Lt Gamlin Kizaki of Diamond Force.
I know mom, you want me to assassinate him, right ?
Right. With an arrow through his heart.
Mylene, I want to arrange things between you and Gamlin.
( Omiai - Possible engagement meeting )
Arrange things ?!
Nekki Basara's just a civilian, after all.
So why does he have the latest model VF-19 ?
Protection level 12 ?!
I should at least be able to get the date of manufacture and serial number.
Warning ! In accordance regulation 1345, any further access inquiries...
...will result in the erasure of data on this terminal.
Why ? I just want to find out basic data about his Valkyrie !
Access denied ! Access denied !
Nekki Basara ! I'll find out who you are, no matter what !
Be back home at 2 pm tomorrow, no matter what.
Mom, I'm not interested in this at all.
In the first place, aren't I a little young for an arranged marriage ?
Aren't you the one who's always asking not to be treated like a child ?
Well that's completely different !
Got it. Tomorrow at 2 pm. I'll be waiting, Mylene.
Wait a minute !
Oh yes. I sent the dress you'll be wearing tomorrow. It should arrive pretty soon.
See ya !
Geez ! What's with her ?!
Mom's always...
I'll be late for the concert !
I'm sorry ! I'm in a hurry, so just toss it inside !
When I'm lost in a strong rain...
...I'll play the guitar and calm myself down.
Come on, people. I want you to feel this.
Basara, slide number 52.
What, 52 ?
Hey.
Ray.
We're about to meet up with Mylene. That just leaves you.
Yeah, I'm almost there.
That's good. Get here soon.
Right.
The output has been increased 20%, but I think controlling it will be difficult.
No problem. I'm used to breaking wild horses.
Lieutenant Kinryu, the Captain has given authorization for test flights.
Let's take them out gently.
Roger !
That was gently ?!
Diamond Force is impressive !
...cross a heart with another.
My heart of love soars into the night sky, carrying my burning emotions.
Keep shooting down sadness and anger.
A heart of love is inside you too. Face your destiny.
It can go billions of light years ahead. My charging heart of love.
D2 to D1. Can you see the civilian craft on Milky Road 77 ?
I see it. What's the problem, Gamlin ?
It appears to be the latest model MM shuttle...
...but the maximum speed and thruster output are abnormal.
Maybe they modified it on their own.
Physica, remember that a good pilot won't overlook even the smallest possibility.
All right. Do a data analysis on the computer.
Roger.
Well ?
Just as I thought.
I'll send the data.
If it's an MM-15D, there should be no problem.
What ? MM-18 ? 17 ? 15 ? What the hell ?
It's a clever disguise. It's either a military spy craft, a civilian prototype, or...
An enemy infiltrator !
It's possible.
Commander, allow me to continue pursuit.
All right, do it.
Physica, we'll go back and evaluate the results of the test flight.
Roger.
D-2 to D-1. Unregistered civilian vessel has been lost.
Permission requested to continue pursuit.
This is D-1. Further pursuit would be out of the range of our duties.
Return to ship.
But Commander...
We'll send an investigative party.
Return to the ship and prepare to enjoy your vacation starting tomorrow.
Commander, officially, my vacation starts today at 1900 hours.
That means that my vacation starts in one hour.
So ?
Let me continue the investigation during my free time.
Still...
I will let the investigation team take over as soon as they arrive.
If I could just continue until then...
All right. I'll permit it.
You're such a workaholic.
Thank you.
Captain, what do you make of this ?
It's all right, I suppose.
This is D-2.
It seems I've lost the ship.
Please request that the investigation team search the surrounding airspace.
Roger.
I guess I'll head back.
No mistaking it !
It's his Valkyrie !
That means Nekki Basara is on this ship.
This is D-2, Gamlin. As of now I am off duty.
Would you like a pamphlet ?
Sure.
Here you are.
Basara, what's up with you today ?
What do you mean ?
It's unlike you to miss your cue like you did.
Really ?
Yeah, you weren't as impressive as usual, Basara.
Oh, yeah ?
Hey, we're concerned about you !
Thanks.
Excuse me. Is this seat open ?
I guess.
Is it over already ?
No. They're just changing bands.
Seems like you don't listen to rock music very much.
Actually, I've been made to listen to it quite a few times. I was forced.
Has Fire Bomber played already ?
Yeah, it's long over. They sucked.
I see.
What are you talking about ?
It seems like the guy behind us is a fan.
Why don't you give him your autograph ?
Ultra Rave. It sounds nice.
Not bad.
What ?
There was a vampire back there !
What ?
What is it ?! Hey, are you all right ?
It's just like what happened to Docker !
What's the problem ?
Seal off this ship immediately !
Enemy troops have infiltrated this ship.
Gamlin.
Don't let anyone leave.
Why is he here ?
What's the matter ?
I lost them.
Y...you're... Nekki Basara !
I'm going to go look over there.
Wait, Nekki Basara ! I have something to ask you !
What ?
What is your connection with the military ?
Huh ?
Your connection with the military !
I don't know what you're talking about.
W...wait !
Enemy attack ?
There's no point in waiting for Gepelnitch's plan to hatch !
I, Gigil, will steal the sample's Spiritia, as it blooms with terror !
Remain calm !
Stay away from the hatch !
It's dangerous to stand there !
Attention all troops !
Units A through G, attack the ship as planned !
Units H through Z, pursue the escape pods !
Commander Gigil, I have detected a signal from our own troops within the targeted ship.
Never mind, it's within the range of error ! Continue the attack !
Yes, sir !
Which unit are you assigned to ?
What the heck're you talking about ?
Tell me ! Which unit do you serve in ?
The rock band, Fire Bomber !
Then why do you go out into combat ?!
Get off my case ! It's none of your business anyway.
None of my business ?
What do you mean, it's none of my business ?
Hey, are you listening ?
I want to see how far I can take my singing !
What the heck does that mean ?
See ya !
Shit !
D-2 preparing to launch. Skipping checks 308 to 499, and 522.
Here he comes again !
Let's go...
If you become the wind, I want to become the endless sky.
Nekki Basara. What the hell's with him ?
D-1 to D-2 !
Gamlin, we will reach the combat zone in 600 seconds. Hold on until then !
Roger !
Stay together.
Escape pod, okay. Launch it.
...lost in a strong rain...
...I'll play the guitar and calm myself down.
Come on, people. I want you to feel this.
Even if it takes time.
Nekki Basara ! Come in !
Come on, people.
That MM is still around !
Lord Gepelnitch.
It appears we have obtained the "Musician" type Spiritia sample you wanted.
Good.
Shall I give Gigil's unit the order to retreat ?
Let them be.
Yes, sir.
Nekki Basara, I know you hear me !
...until my voice grows hoarse.
Basara !
The VF-19 should have the latest weapons installed. Attack !
Come on, people. I want you to believe in me.
I'll stay just as I am.
Come on, people. Like the sun...
Stop it !
...I'll light up your life. My soul for you.
Come on, people. I want you to feel this.
That Spiritia !
Even if it takes time.
Come on, people. For the rest of my life...
I am Gigil !
...I'll protect you. My soul for you.
I'll put an end to your Spiritia !
Come on, people. I want you to believe in me.
I'll stay...
Like the sun...
It's time for you all to go to sleep !
...I'll light...
What ?!
Nekki Basara...
You made me shoot !
Why you ?!
Sorry we're late, Gamlin !
Commander.
Damn. I'll retreat today, but you won't get away next time.
Damn. I guess I owe him one.
Well, it can't be helped. Recover from your injuries soon.
We'll have to do it another time.
Right.
Come in.
You are ?
Nice to meet you, I'm Mylene Jenius.
What can I do for you ?
Mom's...I mean, I heard that you couldn't come to the mayor's house.
Mylene... Oh, the mayor's daughter.
You'll have to excuse me.
I was on the Mark Twain.
I saw how brave you are.
So I thought I would come and see how you were doing.
I'll put the flowers in a vase.
What is it ?
Why...why was a person like you on a ship like that ?
I was doing research for a class at school.
Oh, I see. You must have a lot of work at school.
This has turned out to be a strange way to make your acquaintance.
Yeah, really.
