[narrator] Macross 7 is
MACROSS 7 FLEE
a giant emigration fleet
traveling towards
MACROSS 7 FLEE
COMMANDER, MAXIMILIAN JENIUS
the center of the galaxy
in search of a habitable planet.
CITY 7 MAYOR, MILIA F. JENIUS
But seven years after leaving Earth
GIGIL
they were attacked by a mysterious enemy.
This enemy has the ability
to absorb a type of spiritual energy
called Spiritia from humans,
and to manipulate them
through mind control.
ENEMY HELME
ILLYNA HAYAKAWA
Furthermore, from the fourth planet of the
Varauta system at the edge of the galaxy
FOURTH PLANE
OF THE VARAUTA SYSTEM
a new enemy called Sivil was awakened,
throwing the citizens of Macross 7
into chaos with her fearsome power.
SIVIL
Could she be the true enemy,
known as the Protodeviln?
And now, the enemy's
supreme commander, Gepelnitchi
has finally revealed himself.
What is this dream of his?
GEPELNITCHI
Whatever it is, Macross 7 is now
vulnerable to the enemy on Planet Lux.

[no audible dialogue]
[Basara] Damn it.
[thuds]
Damn it.
[Milia, on comm] So, we have no choice
but to settle here?
At least until the fleet
is finished making repairs.
And how is the surrounding environment?
[Max] It's currently being surveyed.
I'll give you a report
when we have a grasp on the situation.
Well, looking forward to the good news.
Now, can't something be
done about Battle 7's pose?
We're working on it!
[chuckles]
Looks like we'll be staying
on this planet for a while.
-[Gamlin] Yes, ma'am.
-Keep up your patrols.
Yes, ma'am.
And Capt. Gamlin?
Yes?
-About Capt. Kinryu.
-Uh
It was most unfortunate.
[assistant] Capt. Gamlin!
You got an e-mail.
What?
That's why we've decided
to put on a concert
to cheer up the people of the city.
-[Gubaba squealing]
-So,
I know you're busy with your work and all
[gasps]
but if you have the time,
I'd like you to come.
Chin up okay, Gamlin?
Yours truly, Mylene.
Miss Mylene.
[clicks button]
I'd like you to come.
Chin up okay, Gamlin?
Yours truly, Mylene.
-[clicks button]
-[chuckles]
-[assistant] Chin up!
-[gasps]
-Chin up!
-[stammers]
-[assistant chuckles]
-I
You're quite the ladies' man, Captain.
What? No, that's
[both chuckling]
[Mylene] Sound Energy System?
[Ray] What's that?
[Chiba] Well, to put it simply,
your music contains
an unfathomable energy.
[all] What?
[Chiba] This system converts
your song energy into power
that can affect light,
and even time and space.
Song energy?
Power that can affect time and space?
-No way!
-[mews]
Yes way.
When I heard how the legendary Lynn Minmay
stopped Space War I with her song,
I knew what my purpose in life was.
No way.
I studied hard and graduated from the
Galactic Medical College at the age of 12.
Then I got degrees in astrophysics
and quantum physics.
I even delved
into parapsychology and qigong.
When the going got rough, I'd watch
Lynn Minmay videos over and over again.
[Mylene, Ray gasp]
No way.
And now the time has come.
Let's make some history
with your song energy!
So, Doctor,
how exactly do we do that?
Well, first,
we have to put
this Song Energy Converter Unit on Basara.
-Whoa, really?
-What?
-No way!

Just wait for it.

[Mylene] Hey, wait! Basara!
What's up with you?
What?
Hey! Answer me! Jeez!
Oh, I know.
You're jealous, right?
Because I did something cool.
What's his problem?
Jeez.
-Basara
-[mews]
-What?
-[mewing]
Hey, Gubaba!
Why?
-[Chiba] This isn't good.
-[Akiko] What?
[Chiba] We've just started
with our experiments, and this happens.
[Akiko] But the results are
just as you predicted, Doctor.
No. To tap into the full potential
of song energy,
we still need someone
as powerful as Basara.
-[Mylene] I can do it.
-[Chiba, Akiko, Ray] What?
I know I can do it too!
[Illyna] It was a freezing morning, with
the heavy snow blowing wildly in the wind.
We of the Varauta IV Planetary Special
Survey Unit were down in a cave.
We found what seemed
to be some ruins inside, and then
And then?
A large
A large shadow.
[gasps, screams]
-[medic] Sir!
-[gasping, stammering]
When he recounts his memories,
he always stops here.
Then he must've gone through something
so horrifying that he's suppressing it.
[Exsedol groaning]
That is most likely the Protodeviln.
Mr. Exsedol.
You've mentioned that name before.
What is it exactly?
[Exsedol]
A single Protodeviln once destroyed
an entire Zentradi fleet.
The Zentradi?
Surely not a whole fleet.
Don't you mean a Zentradi battalion?
[Exsedol] No. I mean fleet.
[Illyna shudders]
A whole fleet.
Impossible.
[wind howling]
-[growls]
-Hmm?
[birds squawking, fluttering]
What was that?
Was that you, Sivil?
So, Glavil has awakened.

What? What the hell is that?
-Captain, there's an emergency report.
-What is it?
The survey fleet
headed to Varauta 3198XE
The ID beacons
for all their ships have disappeared.
-[person 1] What?
-[Illyna shudders]
-[person 2] The survey fleet
-Disappeared?
[Exsedol] Protodeviln!
[subordinate] The intense body of energy
is moving towards D268.

Protodeviln.
Maybe this has something to do with
the survey fleet disappearing?
