What the hell is that!?
Yakh...
DECULTURE!!!
The planet is being swallowed...
NO WAY I'M DYING IN A PLACE LIKE THIS!!!
COME ON!!!
What the hell is this...
WHAT THE HELL HAPPENED?!?!
Eh?
Yesss!
No, it's all right!
She'll come on time for sure!
Yes, absolutely!
I believe, Ranka-san...
...that today will be the day Frontier's... No...
...the day the entire galaxy's history is changed.
Nanase-san!
Luca-kun...
Do you have a moment to talk?
So no word from Ranka-san and the others?
But Michel-senpai absolutely should have made it in time, so...
I-I'm sure they're fine. I'm sure...
Wait, Ranka!
Don't you know how reckless what you're doing is?!
Bro, you always used to say...
"Rather than regret later,"
"better to charge in and be smashed to bits."
I want to go.
If I don't go... If I don't tell him, I know I'll regret it.
So...
How dare she learn to make a face like a grown up woman without my knowledge...
You didn't know?
All girls suddenly one day become women.
Coming from you, that's...
You were prepared, weren't you?
...that a day like this might come, ever since you took her in?
Prepared... huh?
I guess so.
Honestly, men are such a hassle.
Coming from you, that doesn't...
What? So you and Lt. Commander Ozma used to date?
It's ancient history, though.
What? You didn't know, Monica?
You're way behind!
That phrase is old, too, Miina-senpai!
Hey!
But Commander Ozma is the object of Lieutenant Bobby's affection, isn't he?
Eh?!
Is he?
In the Lieutenant's words,
"I'm fine. Ozma is straight, after all. At most, he's my lover in my heart."
"And I got over the kind of love that needs reciprocation long ago!"
End quote.
Profound.
I guess I still want the one I love to fall in love with me, too.
Then why don't you confess to him already?
It's been a long time since the Captain lost his wife, hasn't it?
He's probably at the peak of loneliness.
Wh-
H-How did you...
The Captain's the only one who hasn't figured it out.
What's this I haven't figured out?
C-Captain!
Might I have one?
P-Please!
I-I made them.
H-How is it?
You'll make a good wife.
What is this...
What is it?
Multiple defold signals detected in the space directly ahead.
Thank you for today.
If you find out anything more, please contact me again.
Nanase-san!
U-Um...
Actually, I...
This is a message from the Frontier Government.
The evacuation alert has been issued to all vessels.
We are currently assertaining their numbers, but they are continually increasing.
Multiple carriers...
Definitely an armada!
Why now...
...in a place like this?
They have a habit of confirming each other's position by fold communication waves.
They may have been drawn here because of that.
Are you going, too, Luca-kun?
Yes.
But without Saotome-kun and Michel-kun, you'd be by yourself...
When I return, there is something I would like to discuss with you.
Luca-kun?
I will protect you no matter what!
I apologize for my tardiness.
Monica, what's the enemy's formation?
Keeping the carriers at the rear center; they are advancing toward us in a fish-scale formation.
Understand this, men,
we truly have our backs against the wall.
We cannot let a single bug past the defense line.
All ships, transformation!
Don't get left behind, Nene, Lalamia!
Yes ma'am!
See you soon, Eddie.
I can, too...
Skull Leader to all craft, begin attack!
Go, Simon, John, Peter!
They headed for Frontier?
Michel... Sheryl...
I received the strength you left for me.
Don't forget...
The universe isn't big enough... for two species to...
That's right...
Yeah, that's damn right.
Wait for me, Ranka!
Diamond Leader to all craft,
we're going to break through the enemy's defense line!
Understood!
Don't think that same trick is gonna work forever!
You goddamn bugs!!!
Where is this...
Frontier!
Hey, Michel, get a hold on yourself.
Michel!
18th Battalion is essentially annihilated!
Elm-7, respond please.
How goes the battle?
Elm-7!
Your Excellency!
The current state is nearly even.
If we could invoke the special exemption article of the New U.N. charter...
...and have your authorization to use Reflex weapons, I believe we could overcome them.
You're telling me to declare all-out war?
Mr. President, your decision please.
Remember your classes...
It's all right... I can do it.
I'm Sheryl!
Skull-2?
Michel-senpai?!
Sheryl-san?!
Oh no!
I won't be beaten!
Nanase-san!
Skull-4...
Alto-senpai?
Alto!
I want to go home...
...to where my friends are...
Frontier?
I'm glad you're all right, Sheryl.
Yeah, we almost got shaken off, but somehow...
What about Ranka?
I'm sorry.
You've gotta be kidding...
Multiple fold signals detected behind Frontier, 6-4!
Power increase detected! Attack incoming!
Repulsive field to maximum!
Direct hit to security dome!
Life support system to maximum! Top priority mode!
How horrible.
That ship...
It can't be... Ranka, too?!
A diversion tactic?
Impossible...
From those damn primitive beasts without even brains of their own?!
It is that ship.
The attacks seemed so organized as to be impossible for Vajra...
Therefore, there must some entity giving commands.
Am I wrong?
Do you have proof?
We have no choice.
All units are authorized for use of Reflex weaponry!
Open a line to the Macross Quarter!
Delta-1 to all SMS squadrons.
This is a Presidential Order!
As of now, we will launch an all-out attack on the enemy main force which has appeared to the rear!
Target: enemy supercarrier!
Wait, please!
Ranka's inside that thing!
Warrant Officer Alto?!
Ranka-chan is!?
Give me permission for a rescue!
Captain!
Warrant Officer Alto.
You are authorized for use of the Armored Pack and Reflex weapons.
However,
we can't soften our attack.
Show me what you can do!
Understood!
Alto.
You'd better come back safe and sound.
Promise me you won't die.
Thanks, Sheryl.
I'll come back with Ranka, no matter what.
No matter what!
Alto...
Skull-1 to Skull-4,
tell me the details later.
If anything should happen to Ranka,
I'll kill you a hundred times over!
Delta-1 to all squadrons,
multiple bandits approaching from 10-12.
ATTACK!!!
Stop...
Stop it already...
...this fighting...
Need to tell...
From all of us...
To all of you...
The larks dancing about the sky are but tears...

Outta my way!
You bastard!
Alto-kun!
You goddamn monster!
NOOO!!!
EAT THIS!!!
Macross Galaxy, Antares squadron, Lieutenant Commander Brera Sterne calling all Frontier forces,
I have rescued the hostage from inside the enemy carrier.
Ranka?!
As of now, I will assist the Frontier convoy.
A survivor of Galaxy?!
Is it true?!
Enemy fleet cohesion degrading.
They seem to be in confusion.
Confusion?
Captain!
Macross Cannon, FIRE!!!
Vajra formations have completely collapsed.
They are beginning to retreat.
Pursuit attack immediately!
Annihilate every last one of them!!!
You're not getting away, you goddamn bugs!!!
Who could've possibly imagined this girl...
...was the Little Queen...
Why do you cry?
I don't know.
I don't know!
Why...
A fleeting moment of calm.
Daily life returns to where it left off.
And behind that facade, it is finally revealed...
...the intent of a secret plot.
Next time, Lost Peace.
Song of Remembrance, echo throughout the Galaxy.
