[Gubaba mews]
[apparatus beeping]
[music fades]
Basara. You can't die first.
That's cheating.
[wind howling]
[footsteps approaching]
[grunts]
[sighs]
Huh?
-[apparatus beeping]
-[Ray] Basara.
We haven't achieved our dream yet.
[Mylene] Basara!
Wake up, Basara!
Sing, Basara! Basara, come on!
This isn't fair.
[Gamlin] Basara's in critical condition,
and I'm despicable!
Being jealous
[straining]
[no audible dialogue]
Lord Gepelnitchi. Awakening beauty!
[Goram, Zomd laughing]
Anima Spiritia!
[roaring]
More Spiritia is needed
to fully resurrect Lord Gepelnitchi.
Activation beauty!
[both laughing]
[researcher 1] All right.
[researcher 2] Here.
This is
What? Gepelnitchi's true form?
Yes, the last unknown Protodeviln.
I've uncovered the terrible secret
of Gepelnitchi's true form.
He is what I would call
an absorption-type.
He consumes Spiritia from all life-forms
without stopping.
You could say he's a Spiritia black hole.
-Spiritia black hole?
-What's that?
If Gepelnitchi wakes,
it could mean the death of
all life in the galaxy,
just like when the Protoculture
were wiped out.
The death of all life in the galaxy?
If Gepelnitchi's true form
sucks the galaxy dry of Spiritia,
he'd starve to death, too.
Wouldn't that be meaningless?
That's why they want
to create a Spiritia Farm,
to provide a steady supply of Spiritia.
How do we stop them?
We, the people of Macross 7,
may have no choice
but to become sacrifices
to the Spiritia Farm.
Freedom as humans, or saving the galaxy?
That is the question.
Captain, I believe it's time to
use the Sound Buster!
[both] Sound Buster?
Even though Anima Spiritia
has a very high level of Spiritia,
it's very dangerous to the Protodeviln.
If Basara possesses Anima Spiritia,
then just like in the Protoculture era,
when Anima Spiritia trapped
and sealed away the Protodeviln
We can seal the Protodeviln away?
[Chiba] I'm sure of it.
Take a look.
Modifications and adjustments to
the Battle 7 gunship's Fold System
are already 77% complete.
By modulating Song Energy
through hyperspace,
we can send it directly into
the Protodeviln's body.
Then the music,
in other words, the Anima Spiritia,
can spread to every cell within its body,
paralyzing its bodily functions
and rendering it incapacitated.
But the problem is
that Basara's currently
Yes.
All we can do is pray
that he wakes up as soon as possible.
-[alarm blaring]
-Enemy spotted at area NNW23!
What?
[roaring]
Take their Spiritia! Marauding beauty!
Col. Barton, what's going on here?
See for yourself.
This was found on the enemy ship
that Stargazer commandeered
for their escape.
[Gamlin] A Spiritia Absorption System.
The enemy are terrible monsters
that can withstand Reaction Weaponry.
So I had this device taken apart and
analyzed, hoping to use it against them.
And you're giving it to me?
Don't flatter yourself!
You're not the only one.
We've fitted Emerald Force and
a few other Valkyries with it, as well.
-The Macross fleet is in your hands.
-Yes, sir!
-[alarm blaring]
-[Rex Gang gasp]
Where are you going?
You're not staying with Basara?
He could die!
I have to go and sing!
[stutters]
For Basara, too!
[gasps]

-Miss Mylene! Look out!
Go to point 070!
I'll be okay!
No! Your Sound Beam
can still reach him from 070!
Gamlin.
-Miss Mylene! I'm a despicable man.
-What?
But even so, I can take down
this Protodeviln, at least!
[roaring]

This is teamwork beauty.
And now Lord Gepelnitchi will have
complete resurrection beauty!
[breathes shakily]
[groaning]
Gepelnitchi will awaken.
What's Basara's condition?
Sir, they're saying
his condition is still critical!
[groans]
[Miho] Captain,
Miss Mylene is hailing us!
Mylene?
I'll sing!
Mylene.
[Mylene] Let me be the singer
for Operation Sound Buster!
No. The Song Energy
needed for Sound Buster is
I know! But I want to do it!
If Basara can't sing,
I'll do it in his place!
Dad! I'm a Fire Bomber!
Fire Bomber is my life!
If I don't sing here and now,
then I'll lose everything
that I hold dear!
Always so dramatic
I mean
-Mylene, this is an order! Sing your best!
-Roger!
Captain, the modification to
the gunship is still at 77%.
So it has to be at point blank range
to be effective!
Understood.
Separate Battle 7 from City 7 at once!
-We're folding to Varauta IV!
-[controllers] Yes, sir!
-[alarm blaring]
-You intend to dive into enemy territory
again, Captain?
Let's make this the last time.
I'm counting on you all!
-Yes, sir!
-Yes, sir!
[Miho] Targeting Varauta IV, fold in!
[chuckles]
The time for Lord Gepelnitchi's
complete resurrection has come.
This is complete revival beauty!
-[monitor beeping]
-[grunts]
So you've come to give us your Spiritia?
Plunder beauty!
Target acquired!
Enemy interceptors inbound!
Give me control!
Begin transformation!
Gamlin, we'll take care of
that freaky monster!
You get Sound Force
to the planet's surface safely, okay?
Docker.
If you let them lay a finger on Mylene,
you'll have to answer to me.
[growls]
[roaring]
Miss Mylene, I
-I was jealous of Basara!
-What?
[cymbal crashes]
[Miho]
Target in firing range. 11-33-0.
Confirm landing point. We'll fire
the Sound Buster from the surface!
[Miho] Two seconds to touchdown.
-[exclaims]
-[groans]
-[Chiba groans]
-[grunts]
Sound Buster, stand by!
Confirm gunship internal pressure!
Gamlin.
I'm sorry. I'm very fond of you, Gamlin.
Really, really fond of you.
But I realized something.
-["LIGHT THE LIGHT" playing]
-I'm just as fond of Basara.
So, so
Say no more, Miss Mylene.
Just sing.
The most important thing for you
right now is singing on Basara's behalf!
Gamlin. [sniffs]
Basara. Listen to me.
