Macross 7 Fleet Battle 7 Gavil Glavil Lieutenant Kinryu Myria F. Jenius, Mayor of City 7 Lieutenant Gamlin Kizaki Blazer Valkyrie Lieutenant Docker Sound Force Colonel Barton The Unified Army accompanies fleets such as Macross 7 to protect them on their journey. Macross 7 was attacked by the energy beings from another dimension called Protodeviln. The Diamond Force was destroyed in battle, and the Unified Army continues to struggle. By Mayor Myria's request, Diamond Force was re-formed to protect the city. The newest Valkyrie, VF-19 were completed, and the Emerald Force was formed. However, the only ones having any affect on the Protodeviln were the armed civilian unit, Sound Force. The new project, Jamming Birds, were unable to prove themselves in battle, adding to the confusion of the Unified Army. CF1 {title} A Feeling that Reaches Beyond the Stars Today we bring you a thorough report on the enemy which recently destroyed the planet Lux and threw us into unimaginable terror. I would like to defer to our experts at this point. We now know that they are called Protodeviln, but what are they? In a word, they are like the devils from our myths. Like devils?{?} Right. Mr. Kurube, our military analyst. What our data clearly tells us is that our weapons are useless against them. It's almost a surprise that our fleet has not been destroyed by now. They could surely annihilate us if they only tried. I agree with you on that. Their power was amazing, wasn't it? What's going to happen to us? Attention citizens, please remain calm and live your lives as normal. Do not let the rumors cause you to panic. So, have you come up with a strategy against the Protodeviln? If we can't indicate a clear strategy, I can't keep the citizens calm! There's a lot of uneasiness out there, I can afford to have them panicking! It is your duty to keep the citizens under control. I suggest you increase the patrols. So, what are our chances against the Protodeviln? We are in the middle of an emergency strategy meeting. Wha.. Why are you so confrontational, mom? I apologize. Let's continue the meeting. Well then... We believe this is the Protodeviln which destroyed the planet Lux. However, we have been unsuccessful at analyzing it's power and abilities. That is too little information. Becoming familiar with the enemy is most important. That is why we have asked Basara and the Sound Force, who have had direct contact with the enemy, to come here today. Basara, we would appreciate hearing whatever you know. Will you tell us about the Protodeviln? Basara, he's asking you. Those guys are amazing. Basara Nekki, that's not what I am asking! Those guys have emotions, just like us. Emotions? Yeah. I sensed their heart. I was able to reach them with my singing. I said, that's not what I am asking! You don't get it. That's what's important! Useless! Captain Maximilian. Continue. We have only been skirmishing with them until now. The question is whether we should mount an all-out offensive against them. Wait a minute! As long as the enemy is hostile to us, we must mount an all-out attack. I second that. An all-out attack is the only way. I am in agreement. No way! I'm not going to let you start an all our war! I'm not interested in your opinion! You! Didn't you year Gigile's song? Didn't you feel his heart? {??} Sivil showed me the galaxy. I guess it was a mistake to have called you. My singing has an effect on them! I can communicate with them! Your song affected their emotions, but could it be because Gigile and the Varautan soldier were both humans under mind control of the Protodeviln? At this point, your singing is only a weapon for weakening the enemy. That's wrong! The army will decide how we will use your singing. Not a chance! You say you can reach the Protodeviln with your singing, but they flee when you sing to them. They must find your singing quite unpleasant! You don't understand... ...their heart. In any case, I believe a thorough offensive is the only measure against these vicious Protodeviln. It seems there is no other way. Captain, I believe we should request permission from Earth Headquarters for the use of reaction weaponry. Reaction weapons... They are forbidden by the Galactic Treaty. If possible, I would like to avoid using them. However, against the Protodeviln we must use weapons of that caliber. Captain Maximilian, you must decide. Captain Maximilian, we must use reaction weaponry. There's no other way. Lord Gepernich, how may I serve you? The dream does not end. Gigile's rampage added unexpected color to my dream. Spiritia does not end. The dream shifts, as dreams do. Sir... I give you this. That is? My secret weapon. Anima Spiritia will no longer affect you. We must capture the samples and the one who emanates Anima Spiritia. Sacrifices are necessary to achieve my dream. Mom, buy me a Blazer Valkyrie! Quiet, we'll buy toys later. Commander Gamlin! Mory! I was looking for you, Commander. Please come back. Without you, the Diamond Force isn't even half as strong. I'm no longer in the army now. Now that we know that the enemy is Protodeviln, there is much unrest among the citizens. The Diamond Force must protect the citizens and keep them from becoming afraid. Commander, please come back. Sorry. Commander Gamlin Take that! I hate that guy's attitude! ``Your singing must be unpleasant to them.'' I can't stand it! It's no use talking with them. But... It's a fact that our singing only makes them flee. Whatever I do, I have to reach the Protodeviln with my singing! I'm confident. I should hope so. Hello! Gamlin! Basara, got a minute? What's up? Basara... What is it? I've got something to ask you. Avoid putting yourself in danger. What's this about all of the sudden? You're always being reckless. I don't think I'm being that reckless. It's that kind of thinking that I'm calling reckless! What's up with you? I'm not sure,... ...but I think the only hope we have against the Protodeviln is your singing. That's quite a compliment! So promise me! Okay. You won't be reckless! R-Right. Good. I feel better. You came all the way down here just to tell me that? You ex-army guys have a lot of time on your hands? I do this because I'm ex-army. This is something that affects everyone aboard Macross 7. I think the army uniform suits you better. I guess you haven't changed inside, though. You think so? Who knows? Hey... What were you talking about? What are you doing? What was it about? Nothing. Hey, Gamlin! What were you talking about? It wasn't anything. Is that the truth?{?} Er.. well... What? Why can't you tell me!? Enemy approaching from area G58 F15. Sixteen enemy units detected, and more units on the way! The enemy is getting serious too. Emerald Force sortie immediately! All units take defensive positions! Roger! \C1Roger! CF1 I think the army uniform suits you better. # eyecatch Let's make this one grand! # Planet Dance Mylene, Basara's really into it today. You don't have to follow us all the way. CF1 If you're going, I'll go too! You realize I used to be an ace pilot. That singing! I feel hot inside! Amazing! More than 200,000 Chiba Song Units! I'll have to redesign the meter to get an accurate reading. Basara's singing still has much potential! Sound Boosters, launch! Sound Boosters on! Why? The sound beams are hitting them, but they're still attacking! Why is it? Odd, the Sound Boosters are operating as normal,... ...and the sound power is so much greater than before. The enemy does not appear to be easing the attack. Send out a Conserax. If they won't stop attacking, destroy them! Those pilots are humans! It's us or them out here. You can't show mercy. CF5 Basara, I'll try to avoid killing them as much as I can. CF1 Commander Gamlin, your orders? Mory? I'm no longer in the army. CF1 There are too many enemy units. CF1 It would be best if we attacked together rather than alone. CF1 Please, Commander! D-2, D-3, attack formation X-3! CF1 Roger! CF1 Here's the second song! # Try Again CF5 Why is it? Why!? CF5 Why, why doesn't it work? Why won't they listen to Basara's song! All of you! Listen to Basara's song! Why won't you listen? Gamlin! D-3, investigate that enemy unit. D-2, back him up! Roger! Why won't you listen? Why?! No pilot? Against machines, it is useless! The're all unmanned... Basara, it's no use singing when you're not singing to anyone. Still singing, but no one's listening... Mylene, Basara is singing to the Galaxy. The Galaxy? For unmanned units, they are too well coordinated. Are they being controlled from somewhere? There's a signal being emitted. N356, there's something there. D-1 to D-2 and D-3. Provide back up for Sound Force. Roger! As long as they're unmanned, you can do as you want. Formation 2 Top! Roger! Lieutenant Gamlin's Valkyrie is leaving the field of battle. What? The Diamond Force? No, just Lieutenant Gamlin. What is he thinking? Send a Conserax after him. Roger. That's it! Enemy unit, in area N356! That's the leader, eh? D-1, wait for support! You finally caught on! What? The beauty of suddenness! No! Gamlin! What... happened? It must be Basara! Anima Spiritia! What's going on? Basara's sound beam penetrated the asteroid. Amazing! In other words, Basara's sound energy reached the Protodeviln without destroying the asteroid. Basara's song can even penetrate asteroids? Now that I know you're unmanned, there's no reason to hold back! This one is more irritating than Anima Spiritia! Maybe it's my duty to let everyone hear Basara's song. Gamlin... Er, Lieutenant. That was a close call. Basara's song saved me. I don't remember saving you. Man, Gamlin. Weren't you the one saying ``Don't be reckless''? Gamlin, why did you do that? You could have been killed! {Mylene's comment}{?} You're getting scolded. You keep quiet! Gamlin, please promise me, you won't ever do anything reckless again. Ok... Properly! Yes! # Totsugeki Love Heart I apologize for the inconvenience I have caused you until now. I realize it is selfish, but could you use your influence as mayor to reinstate me as a member of the Diamond Force? What are you talking about? You're still the Commander of the Diamond Force. Mayor, more than before, I would like the Diamond Force to aggressively back up the Sound Force. More than before? Protecting the Sound Force will lead to making the lives of the citizens safer,... ...that is part of your duty. Next time Hey! Don't pull up my skirt! He's just a kid, don't get all bent out of shape. Those dirty pictures! He's your fan, that's cute. Oh, yeah!? Next time, I Love Mylene! Singing is a passion! Special Feature Macross 7 Plus City Police 24 Hours The Macross 7 fleet travels through space. The sleepless City 7. And the City Police who protect the citizens from danger. I am standing in front of the police office on Brawley Street. I will be reporting on the activities of the City Police. The duties of the City Police range from traffic regulation to criminal investigation,... ...but in the seven years since Macross 7 has set out into space, there has been very little for them to do. But... What? Vampire's are on the loose? These modern day vampires which appeared in the peaceful city drain people of their will do live, and people become as living corpses. Although there is rumor that the vampires are enemy infiltrates, neither what they are nor what their purpose is, is understood. Because of these incidents, the police are in an emergency state unlike ever before, with investigations and preventive measures under way. Also at the time of the vampire incidents, City 7 itself was isolated by the enemy. Under Mayor Myria's direction, the police took action in the city, the air, and in space against the invading enemy. As you can see, although their weapons are far from those of the Unified Army, the City Police were able to protect us from the enemy invasion during this emergency when City 7 was sent adrift. Although Mayor Myria was rescued by Lieutenant Gamlin, it was the police and the swat team which were able to arrest the terrorists and reclaim the city office. As you can see, without such actions by the City Police, we would not have the peace we enjoy today. Even today, the phones ring with emergencies in the police office. We must praise the City Police who keep peace and order in this city which never sleeps.
