[narrator] Macross 7 is a giant
emigration fleet traveling the galaxy
in search of a habitable planet.
MACROSS 7 FLEE
Finding such a planet
to colonize in this vast universe
CITY 7
is a long and time-consuming journey.
And so the fleet has
seven large residential ships
with cityscapes, parks, rivers,
and hills inside
where people can live
as they did on Earth.
There are many other emigration
fleets aside from Macross 7
MACROSS 1 FLEE
and they are traveling somewhere
in the galaxy, as well.
MACROSS 5 FLEE
These fleets form a communications
network called the Galaxy Network,
which allows them to communicate with
each other even though they are far apart.
But the universe is
an unpredictable place.
Macross 7 was attacked
by a mysterious enemy
GIGIL
and City 7, the main ship of the fleet,
was flung into unknown space
CITY 7 MAYOR, MILIA F. JENIUS
with all communications lost.
MYLENE - GAMLIN
The citizens of the city are unsettled
by this, but can do nothing
except drift along in space on their own.
[rock music playing]
That ain't it.
[sighs]
[grunts]

[chattering, whistling]
LADY BIKER'S TEMPTATION
[fan] Mylene!
[chuckles]
What a great turnout,
-and it's still an hour until the concert.
-Yeah.
Don't you just get excited
by a big turnout?
I'm no Basara,
but even I get all fired up by this.
-Ray, come here for a sec.
-Huh? What's up?
-Just come with me, okay?
-Okay.
I wasn't expecting this many people
to be buying tickets on the day.
Can you do one more set today?
Hmm.
If we don't give them something,
they might make a fuss.
Besides, they came all this way.
It'd be sad to turn them away.
All right. Knowing Basara and the others,
they'd do it no problem.
It's actually a nice problem to have.
I remember when we first played
this venue, only a handful of people came.
It's pretty unreal.
With Fire Bomber's music,
it was only a matter of time.
When the recording for
"PLANET DANCE" was canceled,
you were the one who picked us up.
We're where we are now because of you.
I was just enamored
with your music, that's all.
[fan] Where's Basara?
[biker] Yahoo!
Hurry, the concert's about to start!
[Rex] Colette, Berman, take it easy, okay?
Speeding will get you into accidents.
Yeah. Besides,
we have reserved special seats.
Rex worried about accidents?
It must be because she's in love.
[Rex] What did you say?
Nothin'! I'll slow down!
-Fire!
-[audience] Bomber!
[Gubaba mews]
You're sure perky for someone who's been
writing songs day and night, lately.
Huh?
I know you've been having trouble
with the new song.
So, it's finished?
Who said I was having trouble?
Here we go! "REMEMBER 16"!
[cheering]
[Mylene] Jeez, it's like he doesn't
realize when he's tired.
Like a little kid!
Whenever I come here
I'm reminded of the time ♪
[Colette] Whoa,
we can hear the music from here!
[Rex]
And I just warned them about speeding.
[Basara] When all I did was dream ♪
The wind trailing from the star ♪
[Rex grunts]
-[tires squeal]
-Whoa! What's Rex doing?
[all gasp]
[grunts]
Don't go too fast? She's one to talk.
Can you blame her, though?
We can hear him singing.
There's no way she can wait.
-[laughs] That's our Rex for ya. Extreme!
-[laughs] Fire!
REMEMBER 16 ♪
I still haven't forgotten it ♪
Fire Bomber has garnered
a great following.
"PLANET DANCE" is now by far
the number one song on City 7's charts.
All thanks to
Miss Mylene's charm, perhaps?
Michael, Mylene's dying to go into battle.
Keep a close eye on her.
Of course.
I will have full surveillance on her
to make sure she never does it again.
[Basara] When I'm distraught ♪
[engine revs]
I always think to myself
REMEMBER 16 ♪
Thank you! Thank you!
[engine revs]

NO, THANKS! ♪
You're not welcome here ♪
Ever-shifting constellations ♪
Now this is what I call
a cutting edge fighter!
The VF-19 is awesome!
And they're all
Yes, that's right.
They're all pilots who were attacked
by the enemy during the first encounter.
Mmm.
They've come a long way.
Lt. Docker of Diamond Force, especially.
I'd venture to say he's fully recovered.
[Max] His maneuvering is spectacular.
Even better than before.
As we are putting together
a new team, Emerald Force,
I'd like to recommend
Lt. Docker as its leader.
Very well.
Then we'll need to think
about promoting him.
Harvest more Spiritia!
[soldiers] Harvest more Spiritia.
Harvest better-tasting Spiritia!
[soldiers]
Harvest better-tasting Spiritia.
Plunder it!
[soldiers] Plunder it.
[announcer] The second set will begin
in just a moment.
-Thank you for your patience.
-[music playing]
We're on a roll today.
Yeah, especially Basara.
I'm not different. I'm always like this.
Is that so?
Aren't you more into it today
because some excited fan gave you a kiss?
Huh?
You talking about Rex?
Didn't she run off somewhere?
[Mylene] So you're upset.
She wasn't here when it mattered the most.
And when does it matter the most?
-[knocks on door]
-[door opens]
Excuse me, is Miss Mylene
[gasps] Gamlin, it's you!
H-Here.
Wow! They're beautiful! Thank you!
[grunts]
Hey, we're on a break right now.
How about we go get
something cold to drink?
Oh Well, excuse us, then.
Oh
[tires squeal]
Huh?
I see.
The project has entered a new phase.
[soldier]
Fleet Code EGF has been identified
to be of a similar race as those samples.
Direct the main fleet's attention
to Code EGF.
Examine them one more time,
then begin the recruitment process.
["MY FRIENDS" playing]
Wonder where Rex went.
What the hell's going on anyway?
I don't care how much she's got the hots
for Basara, she's acting strange today.
Yeah, I've never seen Rex like that.
I never imagined that you'd be a rock fan.
[chuckles] Oh From now on,
I'm a fan of you, Miss Mylene.
Come on, a fan? We're friends, right?
Friends, huh?
[panting]
[grunts]
Basara?
-[siren wailing]
-[gasps]
Yo, Rex! I'll be back in a sec!
Miss Mylene, I had a wonderful time.
But I have to go now.
I'll come with you!
No, it's too dangerous!
-Let me go!
-I will not!
Miss Mylene, I'll be fine on my own.
Take this. Be safe, okay?
Thank you.
[Gubaba shrieks]
Let's go!
[audience] Yay!
I'm going out there now to fire things up!
You all can listen to me
rock on that screen!
Basara! Basara!
Go get 'em!
Is this okay?
You didn't sleep last night, right?
You can count on me!
[siren continues]
[Gamlin] Commander, I'm off to battle.
I wish she had chosen
a red rose to give me.
Sivil.
I'll rock the whole universe

You fool!
When will you stop deluding yourself
that your songs work on the enemy?
I know this isn't just
some publicity stunt,
but this is all I'll say.
If you really think you can drive off
the enemy with singing,
you're the number one fool in the galaxy!
Say something!
Hey! You hear me? Basara!
Hey, Basara!
[Ray]
Looks like you made it back in one piece.
I wish you could've heard them
cheering at the venue!
[grunts]
What's with the attitude?
Mylene, don't.
He was having a blast singing!
So why's he all grouchy now?
He's tired from staying up nights.
Just let him be, okay?
[guitar playing]
Basara, you're home.
Rex.

Ah.

Huh?
Can we stay like this for a bit?
Yeah, no big deal.
I'd like to know more about you.
About me?
Yeah, I want to know you.
