GAMLIN'S REVOL
and Emerald Force Lt. Ordek Starffin.
Twenty-seven casualties in all.
To their courage.
-Stargazer has returned.
-[crowd clamoring]
U.N. Spacy has yet to make
an announcement,
but it's been confirmed that Fire Bomber
of Sound Force have returned safely.
[sighs]
[beeps]
The enemy's objective
is to take our Spiritia.
And the people of Macross 5
are still being held captive
on Varauta IV.
But we don't know when
the Protodeviln will attack.
How are we to respond?
Captain! Please lift the ban on the use of
defensive Reaction Weaponry for all ships!
Hmm.
[blowing whistle]
Well done.
Except our situation's only gotten worse.
-I'm returning the post of captain to you.
-Okay.
But I'm glad you're all right.
[drilling]
[automated voice] Captain on the bridge.
About the Anima Spiritia
Judging from the enemy's reaction,
it's Basara's singing.
Singing?
Yes.
I'd like you to look into it
with Dr. Chiba.
Yes, of course.
[guitar playing]
To Fire Bomber returning safely.
Cheers!
[Mylene, Ray] Cheers!
[sighs]
Basara, don't you want your drink?
I'm drinking it if you don't!
[both gasp]
There's alcohol in it!
Hey, you okay?
-[chuckles] Did you like it?
-I don't know
[hiccups]
[chuckles]
Basara's in a bad mood.
He left something undone back there.
What?
-Seriously, it's your fault I drank this!
-[playing stops]
You think it's okay
to make kids drink alcohol?
You're the one who drank it.
Oh, yeah?
-And you're wearing this thing.
-What?
Oh, that's
Looks like a diamond.
Doesn't suit a kid.
Oh, yeah?
Why don't you give it to Gamlin?
Just the thing
for someone in Diamond Force.
Please put this on your left ring finger.
[hiccups]
Capt. Gamlin, the mayor [gasps]

[groans]
Spiritia Paradise.
That was a rough mission, Gamlin.
How was Varauta IV?
[gasps] What?
Gamlin!
Coercion beauty.
Purity beauty!
[Mylene] Gamlin!
[grunts]
Healthy beauty.
-What?
-[Gubaba shrieking]
Whoa. What's the matter, Gubaba?
-Innocence beauty.
-Mmm?
[chuckles]
Whoa! Wait a minute, Gamlin! I
The ring's Gamlin?
Confusion beauty.

-Mmm? [grunts]
-How dare you?

Hey, wait!
What's got into him?
Gamlin
SIGN OF THE TIMES ♪
Even stunning ♪
Captain, you have a call from
the city police. Patching it through.
Captain Maximilian,
Mayor Milia
has been rushed to the hospital!
What?
The doctors say she's showing
the same symptoms as vampire victims.
Lt. Dick and Lt. Morry of Diamond Force
and Ellis, the secretary,
have fallen victim as well.
[Max] All right.
This can't be happening.
The only possible explanation
is that the Protodeviln have
infiltrated the Macross 7 fleet again.
Milia
[screaming]
-[alarm blaring]
-Captain!
Someone's attacking military facilities!
What?
Hangars four, five and six
are completely destroyed.
The maintenance bay is damaged.
No bandits detected
in the military base area.
This may be
the handiwork of the infiltrator.
Investigate it at once!
[screaming]
[screaming, exclaiming]
Oh! What the
That's
Capt. Gamlin?
I'll bring total destruction!
Suppression beauty!
-Capt. Gamlin?
-[alarm continues]
It's been confirmed, sir!
Why's Capt. Gamlin
This is odd.
And he's still attacking.
-Tell Emerald Force to deploy at once!
-[Miho, Saint Ford] Yes, sir!
[music playing]
They say Gamlin's
wreaking havoc in a Battroid.
What?
Gamlin?
He's destroying every military facility
on sight.
-I knew it.
-[gasps]
-Seriously, he wasn't himself today.
-[drums continue playing]
Mmm.
Anyway, we have to stop him!
Gamlin! Gamlin, what are you doing?
Gamlin, come in!
[Saint Ford] Capt. Gamlin!
-Capt. Gamlin! Please respond!
-[laughing]
Explosion beauty!
[Saint Ford] Capt. Gamlin! Please respond!
Capt. Gamlin!
Captain, permission to attack!
It seems there's no choice.
Targeting the VF-17D.
Gamlin
Wait!
Out of my way! He's gone crazy!
Hold on! There's got to be a mistake!
There has to be a reason!
[Docker] He destroyed military facilities.
That's a major offense.
Court-martial isn't even necessary!
["TRY AGAIN" playing]
[Docker] See? There's no reason for this!
If we do nothing, he'll kill us!
This isn't like Gamlin at all!
Something's wrong with him!
What?
Anyway, let's go!
In the sky where I continue to fight ♪
An aurora falls ♪
[groans] Anima Spiritia!
On your darkest night
You are not alone ♪
Gamlin
Now and forever ♪
[groans] Stimulation beauty!
Gamlin, what's gotten into you?
Could he have been possessed
by a Protodeviln?
Hmm. Yes. That's very likely.
The ones who had their Spiritia taken
were Milia and the
members of Diamond Force.
People close to Capt. Gamlin.
That is true.
Really?
So that's what's making Gamlin all weird?
That's horrible! Get out! Whatever
Protodeviln that's possessing Gamlin,
get out!

Capt. Chiba.
Assuming Capt. Gamlin is possessed
by a Protodeviln,
can we expel it?
I don't know.
There are still things we
don't know about Song Energy.
But I think it's possible.
Captain,
this is our chance
to destroy a Protodeviln.
We should lure the Protodeviln possessing
Capt. Gamlin to a safe area,
then destroy it with Reaction Weaponry.
Along with Capt. Gamlin, you mean.
Some sacrifices are unavoidable.
Trading one Protodeviln for one human
It's worth trying.
[Basara] Even amidst the storm ♪
I don't look away
C'mon ♪
We can wipe away all fear
of the Protodeviln.
This will affect morale!
Captain, please make the call!
Let's leave this to Sound Force.

[screams]
[gasps] What was I doing?
Basara, why do you have
a Sound Beam on me?
Gamlin's back to normal.
-Yes! He's back.
-[gasps]
Yes.
But keep your guard up.
Gamlin!
Mylene, wait!
-What?
-Trickery beauty!
Gamlin!
M-Mylene!
[grunts]
[grunts]
This body is unexpectedly adaptive
to the Anima Spiritia's aura.
Adaptive beauty!
Songs don't work on him?
What?
It's possible.
Capt. Gamlin may be acting
as a filter that absorbs Song Energy.
This is regrettable.
The enemy figured it out before I did.
Gamlin
[Gamlin] If you don't want me
to kill this healthy beauty,
then back off.
[screams]
-Mylene!
-Don't move!
[grunts]
Good.
Now follow me. Obedience beauty.
[Ray] Basara,
-I think we better do as he says.
-Yeah.
Captain,
this is our chance!
The enemy's entered a safe area
of its own accord.
Now that we know
Sound Force can't stop it,
this is the only way!
Captain Maximilian!
Col. Barton's right!
We should prepare
to fire Reaction Weaponry!
Yes, it's a chance
to destroy a Protodeviln,
but that would mean losing Sound Force.
[captain] We can't just let it get away
and keep on doing this.
[Barton] Captain Maximilian,
I believe this is the best way
to minimize casualties!
Reaction Weaponry, stand by.
[both] Captain!
Target the VF-17D.
-I'll launch them myself.
-[Saint Ford, Miho] Yes, sir!
Do you have something up your sleeve?
No. But I'll be the one
that pushes this button.
Basara!
They're trying to resolve this
with Reaction Weaponry!
Damn it, it's always
Reaction Weaponry with those guys!
Can't they think of anything else?
[laughing]
[Miho] Adjusting target coordinates
S0.5, R3.1, N4.2.
Aiming is set. Target in sight.
Captain, all ships are ready
to fire Reaction Warheads!
[beeping]
Hey!
It's me you're after, right?
Let Mylene go!
[laughing]
[Miho] Target in sight. Range: 2000.
Deviation 0.002.
Supplementary angle 0.002%.
Ray!
We gotta do something or those
Reaction Warheads will get us too!
Yeah.
[Miho]
Target's distance to enemy ship, 200.
Gamlin
Step back!
["LIGHT THE LIGHT" playing]
Go! I'll handle him!
Miss Mylene!
[Mylene] Gamlin has always
been there to save me.
Now it's my turn to save Gamlin!
What?

Your daughter is really something.
[sighs]
By the way, Captain
Yes?
Were you really going to push that button?
If I had to.
[chuckles] He's all quiet now.
Is he okay?
Yes.
Right now,
his body is full of your Song Energy.
He just fell unconscious from the bliss.
That means your feelings
got through to him,
with your song.
[Gubaba mews]
[chuckles] You just don't get it.
Get what?
Oh, nothing.
What the heck!
-Come on. What don't I get?
-[Basara] How should I know?
[Mylene] Give me a break.
You're the one who said it.
[Basara] I didn't say anything.
[Mylene] Yes, you did.
Just tell me, okay? What don't I get?
It's bothering me!
