Macross 7 Fleet The Planet Lux Macross 5 Fleet City Ship Factory Ship Milky Road Mylia F. Jenius, Mayor of City 7 Mylene F. Jenius Maximillian Jenius, Captain of Macross 7 Fleet Gigil Gavil Gepernich Macross 7 has landed on the planet Lux. It is the purpose of the colonization fleets to search for habitable planets and land on them. City Ships, Factory Ships, Resort ships all serve their functions in the development of the planet. The vehicles which used the Milky Road while in space can maneuver over land and water also, so the citizens can come and go between the ships as before. Not only that, but since the natural environment of the planet is friendly to people, the dome can be opened and the atmosphere can be directly let into the city ships. However, it is a fact that Macross 7 is currently on the planet Lux because they were driven there by the enemy... Take a look at this Galactic Inquirer! It says, "Is Nekki Basara Today's Lin Minmei?" Let's see, "The Zentraedi who had been brainwashed by the enemy were brought to their senses through song. This was exactly Lin Minmei did." How stupid. That's totally impossible! Then what are you doing buying the Galactic Inquirer anyway? It's fun to read! Let's get started with practice. Passionate Scandal Rek, did you want to see me? Oh, Janet! This is one hot story! Our sales are up 25%! Congratulations. The other papers are trying to sell more copies by writing about Nekki Basara, so we can't be left behind! Yes. I'm counting on you Janet. From now on, your articles will be at the top of the front page! Leave it up to me. It's me. I'm going to use the photo. Right. In tomorrow's paper. If you come across any more photos, send them to me. I'll pay a good price. What is it you are planning to do? We do not have enough spiritia yet to awaken Lord Gepernich. Lord Gepernich! Galvo?! Gavil, did you wish to see me? Why would I wish to see you! Then who awakened me? I did. I am here now. Those eyes... Lord Gepernich! That you would wake me before yourself... I saw your shape in my dream. It was a dream like that of a wandering bard, disappearing only to shine, and shining only to disappear, a dream, like sleep. I am always yours to use if needed. Galactic Inquirer! Galactic Inquirer! Photo of Nekki Basara and his secret love. So! Those two were involved after all! Jeez, what a mob! Bummer, I wanted to ask Basara to tell me the truth. Well, I know how to get around that! Hey, glad you could make it. Where's Basara? I haven't seen him all morning. He's disappeared again!? Yes. He must have run off to Rex's place! That's gotta be it! Rex? You! Scum scrapers! You think you can get away with writing filthy lies! Janet, I've been told our sales have doubled. That's good to hear. "The Wild Life of a Scandalous Hero." Well, not long ago he was the second coming of Lin Minmei, they sure cut him down fast. What Michael said was true. Basara is a scoundrel. But when was this photo taken? Rex hasn't come around recently. It says there it's a secret rendezvous. I'm amazed you were able to get a shot like this. Actually, it's quite an old photo. I got it through one of my sources. Truth and facts are just pig feed. Let's keep printing these stories. All right. Cut it out! Rex! There's no point in getting all bent out of shape. But..! Basara! Rex is right. Basara. Do you want to ride? Yeah. These are no good, they won't make a good front page! Well! Mayor Mylia. What's all that mail? They are complaints from the citizens. Again? There are three letters fewer than before. I don't even want to look at them. Mayor's office. Michael, it's for you. Thanks. This is Michael speaking. You fool! You shouldn't be calling me here! This is not a good time! I'll call you back. Please excuse me. Who was that? Just someone I know. You going to be okay? Hm? Things have gotten awfully hectic. They've probably all got some kind of fever. Sorry about this. About what? You really want to be left off here? Yeah. Who's your date now? Let's just call her Sleeping Beauty. Don't go breaking too many hearts. You're right. I'll be careful. Galactic Inquirer! Galactic Inquirer! News breakthrough! Nekki Basara's father was Hikaru Ichijou, a valkyrie pilot for the Unified Army. Galactic Inquirer! Galactic Inquirer! Important testimony reveals that Nekki Basara was Lin Minmei's secret child. Nekki Basara was the child of Hikaru Ichijou and Lin Minmei! So Basara, which one is the truth? Yo, why do you bring Planetary Inquirer and Galactic Inquirer in here every day? I'm subscribing to them! All right, you're beyond cure. The other gossip magazines are writing about you too. One after another, memoirs of your former girlfriends. In Galaxy 7 it says you had gone up into the mountains of India looking for enlightenment. Can you believe the stuff they come up with? So? Which story is true? Stupid. Ray, you know a little about Basara's past, right? Nope, not at all. I wonder what he did before we met. I can't believe you people. Basara, please comment on the latest stories! Get in. Thanks. You're a reporter for Galactic Inquirer, right? That's right. There are things I want to ask you. Tell me everything about you. I want to write the story of the real you. The real me? Yes. I'm right here. What? If you're looking for the real me. Then I'll ask the real you. Why do you go to the vegetation plant? Huh? Would you like me to guess? You go for a secret rendezvous with Mylene Jenius! Let's see... No way! Michael, what's the meaning of this?! I'm so sorry. So those two were an item after all. There's no way this is true. You gotta be kidding, why me!? Why not Veffidas? Mylene, how far have you gone with Basara? What did he say to win you over? Please, comment on this story! How are you feeling about all of this? Shut up! I'll get the scoop on Basara's true love today for sure! What... that's! What a story! How long are you going to wait, anima spiritia! Strength, more strength! Anima spiritia! It's not enough! It's you! You're the only one who can wake her up! More! More spiritia! You! I can't afford to have the samples learn any more about Sivil. Die! Get out of the way! I'll take care of you after I kill her! Get out of the way! I said get out of the way! Who are you singing for, who? Basara. Just who are you... But who am I? I can feel it! I can feel it! The energy of the spiritia regenerating race! Come, my minions, and do my bidding! Go, my minions, and drain them of their spiritia! Captain, we are under attack! What? There are at least fifty of them. No metal detected. They seem to be organic weapons. A new kind of proto-devlin... Scramble the Emerald and Diamond Forces! Roger! This is sector F. Two monsters appearing to be proto-devlin have appeared! No, there are three! Dick, Morry don't underestimate them! Roger! What? Those are Valga's minions! He's awake also!? Basara! Basara! I didn't realize there were this many of them! So you come to hear me sing? The music's going to blow you away! Amazing! What is this? Anima spiritia, I have seen what it is. Lieutenant Chiba, the results of your research are astounding. I'm honored by your compliment. It seems the time has come to take project M to the next level. We will mass-produce the Sound Booster, and establish Music Units. Are you saying we are going to increase the size of Sound Force? Sound Force is only an experiment. We must now take this to it's next logical step. We did it Basara! We did it!? What do you mean, we did it, didn't we? Your song destroyed the enemy! Just listen to you...My songs aren't tools for murder! Tools for murder? What are you talking about, weren't those things monsters? Basara! You're going to quit? What's this about? I want to pursue the real thing. What do you mean, 'the real thing'? You'll know if you listen to Basara sing. Hey, Janet, wait. Oh well, I guess I'll come up with tonight's scoop. Here are the new photos of Basara. Just make sure the mayor doesn't find out. I don't need them anymore. I just quit working here. Janet! See you later, Michael, my brother. Everybody, did you read this article? You're still reading the Galactic Inquirer? What can I do, I have a subscription. "Nekki Basara and Gamlin Kizaki's friendship much more than a warm friendship"!? Well, things finally took a turn in this direction. Hey, is this true? What do you think? Basara, they're choosing members for the Singing Flight Squad. How stupid. But you've been chosen as one of the judges! What the army thinking anyway? Next time, Jamming Birds. Radically fire!
