MACROSS 7 FLEE
[narrator] After setting off
in search of a habitable planet,
the giant emigration fleet Macross 7
GEPELNITCHI - GIGIL
was attacked
by the mysterious Protodeviln,
and made an emergency landing
on Planet Lux.
Planet Lux was a chance discovery
made by another emigration fleet
MACROSS 5 FLEE
but it turned out
to be a surprising planet
where Protoculture ruins were located.
The Protoculture
were humanity's ancestors
PROTOCULTURE WRITING
the first race to evolve
10 million years ago.
And since they were also
the creators of the Zentradi,
that makes humans and Zentradi kin.
The fact that Sivil was captured
in the Protoculture ruins
SIVIL
and caused their emergence,
also points to a connection
between the Protoculture
and the Protodeviln as well.
The Protodeviln, who feed on Spiritia,
existed long before
humanity was born on Earth,
and have been antagonizing the
Protoculture and the Zentradi since then.
The Protodeviln should've crashed
somewhere around here. Find it!
[pilots] Roger!
SIVIL OF THE FORBIDDEN PLANE
Sivil, you didn't expend
all your energy, did you?
Sivil! I'll protect you!
Those ruins were made
by humanity's ancestors.
-Pretty hard to believe.
-[Gubaba mews]
-Such a shame.
-What?
We weren't able to find a way
to destroy the Protodeviln.
But hey, we did find out what they are.
And, well We know what they're after now.
So, we might find out more later.
Right, Basara?
[sighs] Jeez, what's wrong with you two?
[sighs] I'm hungry.
LET'S GO straight on through ♪
To the daybreak we dreamt of ♪
It's still far away, but ♪
MAYBE things will turn out fine ♪
As long as we have love ♪
Captain, please explain yourself!
When you discovered
the Protoculture ruins,
why didn't you contact the city office?
I didn't want to alarm the city until
we knew more about the situation.
Well, you could've at least told me.
It's my job to protect the city as mayor!
And it concerns me as someone
with Zentradi blood.
All right.
-I'll be more careful from now on.
-From now on?
[beeps]
Captain! Enemy ships
have appeared in Lux's orbit!
Please come to the bridge!
Understood. On my way.
I'll give you a report on the ruins later.
Excuse me.
-Hold it!
-What?
Your collar's loose.
Remember, you're supposed
to be running a tight ship.
[chuckles]
[automated voice] Captain on the bridge.
Captain! Enemy ships, numbering 70,000!
[Miho] They've been hiding
behind Lux's moons!
Put it on the monitor.
My name is Gepelnitchi.
Gepelnitchi
Samples, this planet is the promised land
where you will live happy and free.
Live in the intoxication of
this never-ending dream.
And in return, we will take your Spiritia,
for all eternity, until your life's end.
Spiritia!
This is the ultimate dream,
the Spiritia Farm!
Spiritia Farm?
What does that mean?
Spiritia Farm
So, it seems we'll be livestock.
We have to escape this planet
as soon as possible.
Start looking for an escape
route immediately!
[Miho, Saint Ford] Yes, sir!
We're back!
Hey, welcome back.
How was your trip, Basara?
Trip
-Trip
-[drums playing]
It was awesome.
I saw the galaxy!
-The galaxy?
-Yeah.
It was huge. Humongous!
I see. Good for you.
-So, you won't leave again, right?
-What?
We're playing as Fire Bomber again, right?
Of course.
[gasps]
["PLANET DANCE" playing]
[in English] Fire!
[in Japanese] Okay, let's get started
SATURDAY NIGHT ♪
How you feelin'? ♪
LET'S STAND UP
Can you feel the beat? ♪
[ringing]
The dream is beginning to take shape.
Now to mend the tear,
lest the dream be undone.
Sivil and Gigil have crashed
on Planet GGT!
Find and destroy them!
[panting]
Possible Protodeviln sighted!
Driving them to point 1038!
[pilot] Roger!
[grunts]
[grunts]
[groans]
What?
Rejoice, Gigil and Sivil.
You will be consumed by
my destructive beauty!
[Gigil groans]
Sivil!
Basara
-[drums stop playing]
-What is it, Basara?
Sivil I think she's calling me.
What?
[groans]
Why are you after Sivil?
Don't worry, you're to be destroyed
as well, by order of Lord Gepelnitchi.
Execution beauty!
Why?
[groans]
[voice] Sivil
[pilot] This is Rising Leader,
ascending on escape route 068.
[exclaims]
What?
[Miho] Escape routes A
through Alpha have failed.
[Saint Ford] Recon team at point AK-7,
wiped out.
[Miho] Orange Love Ring Squadron,
wiped out.
[Saint Ford] All escape routes
are blocked.
[Miho] Planet Lux's orbit
is completely blockaded!
Looks like
leaving the planet is impossible.
We may have no choice
but to live here as their livestock.
The Macross 7 fleet will fold
from its current position.
What? You mean to fold from this position?
Folding directly from
the planet's surface is
It doesn't even need to be said
how dangerous that is.
Don't you think that's a reckless gamble
you have little chance of winning?
I'm well aware.
Tell the fleet we're forcing a fold!
Yes, sir!
[Miho] Destination coordinates
at N206S447.
Fold position is F5M002.
The smallest difference
may mean certain death!
[alarm blares]
[soldier] Lord Gepelnitchi,
the samples are getting
ready to fold from Planet GGT's surface.
Oh. Their Spiritia level is rising.
This is Spiritia Dreaming, indeed.
The unexpected gift yielded
by the 500,000 year cycle of time.
The roar of my dream [laughs]
Entering fold in 30 seconds!
-[alarm beeping]
-[gasps]
The Fold Drives are shutting down?
What? What's happening?
[Miho] The Fold Drives
have shut down!
[Saint Ford] A fissure has formed
in the space-time continuum!
Impossible.
[Miho] All ships are reporting
Fold System failure.
[grunts]
[controller] Picking up a signal frequency
that may have caused the shutdown.
What?
[controller]
Source of signal is at point G7, AB6.
[groaning]
[Exsedol] It's the Protodeviln.
[gasps]
My name is Gepelnitchi.
Samples, you cannot oppose my dream.
[chuckles]
Deploy Emerald Force
and all Valkyrie squadrons!
Take down that Protodeviln!
[laughs]
