After consultation with the senior command of the Unified Army concerning the Protodeviln,... ...we order Macross 7 to destroy the home world of the Protodeviln, the fourth planet of the Varauta system 3198XE. You have permission to use Reaction Weaponry for this mission. Good luck. Operation Stargazer? I will take command of this unit personally. The chance of them returning alive is practically nil... I know my song will get through to their hearts! There's nothing happy about this. If someone has to be sitting in your chair on the bridge... I'll be the one do it. Mylene. If I come back alive, I want you to wear this on your left ring finger. I'm going to go! How silly. If you're going to go, wear this. If you have these, you will be able to come through any danger. I can put on a wild concert right in front of them! Nightmarish Invasion Gentlemen, in 30 minutes, our ship, the Stargazer, will fold out within the orbit of the 4th planet of the Varauta System. I will review the plans for this operation. We will penetrate the cave in which Lt. Irane Hayakawa reported that the Protodeviln are imprisoned, and destroy them with Reaction Weaponry. This is Operation Stargazer. Each unit will proceed directly towards the completion of this mission. We will form twelve units, and all head for the target separately. The units will be the named after the twelve constellations of the zodiac. The name of our target is Polar Star. Arriving at Polar Star is the ultimate goal. Even if you are the last surviving ship, our aim is to detonate Reaction Weaponry inside the enemy's grounds. I don't like it! Basara. We don't need bombs. We can change their hearts with our music. There is no time for that. I can not allow it. We can not risk the failure of this mission. Not only Macross 7,... ...but the whole Galaxy is in danger. That's why I want to seriously sing! I came here to sing! Wait Basara. Ray! Commander Maximilian, please give Basara a chance to sing. Basara may be able to really move the Protodeviln's hearts. All right. If Sound Force is the first unit to reach the Polar Star, then I will allow you to attack with song and not Reaction Weapons. Thank you. Commander Maximilian, it is time for the final fold. I will return to the bridge immediately. I pray for your success. Miss Mylene, the time has come. Gamlin. Gamlin, about this... Don't say anything now. We'll take our time and talk about it after this operation. But, what if something happens to us? Those are words not to be spoken by those heading to battle. Are you done with your last farewells? They are not our last. Diamond Force will fulfill its mission and return. You just listen to me sing. If you get there first. I will. I don't know about that. Don't you worry. Do you wanna race? You sure you're up to it? You don't know until you try. Gamlin, I'm going to be the first one there! You feeling OK, Docker? You'd better stop dreaming or you'll get left behind. I want our Aries unit to get there first. We're counting on you Lt. Irane! This will be my second time on the fourth planet. You can count on me. Hurry up, Mylene! What's he so worked up about? 120 seconds till Stargazer initiates final fold. All Valkyries on stand-by. All units ready. Final fold energy charged. Adjusting coordinates. Mylene. Dad. Once the operation begins, all communications will be cut off. I just wanted to say... Sing will all you've got. Roger! 60 seconds to operation. This brings you good luck if you rub it. 30 seconds to operation. Oh, my friends. Mylene, don't be late. You're the one who's always late, Basara. Hey, this isn't like all the other concerts. 10 seconds to operation. Be serious. The concert hall is the enemy's home ground. 6 5 All right, let's go wild. 3 2 Fire! 1 Initiate fold. Initiating fold. Captain Myria, it's the time for the operation to begin. Confirming the fold out of Stealth Frigate Stargazer. Operation Stargazer has begun. The chance of success is 0.000001%. All we can do now is pray. If anyone can make it succeed, it's Max. Come back, all of you. # Planet Dance Fold complete. Launch decoys.{?!} All constellations launch with the decoys. Roger. Aries, Taurus launching. Gemini, Cancer launching. Leo, Virgo launching. Lord Gepernich, the samples' attack force has penetrated the fourth planet. Contact Gavil. The dream comes to me, saving me the trouble. Here you come, to be annihilated! Scorpio, Aquarius, Pisces launching. All constellations are away. All right. Our ship will leave this airspace. Prepare Blue Gazer Preparation is in progress. But... Commander Maximilian... I will initiate Blue Gazer when all constellations are reduced to less than 10% of their ability. Roger. Pretty good, Gamlin. You haven't slowed down, Docker. Here we are, first one's to Polar Star! That's odd, why isn't Sound Force here? Basara was so fired up. Die! # Light the Light Basara? There you are, Anima Spiritia! Do they understand the point of this operation? Does he plan on being a decoy? Basara, we're making a good target. Sneaking around isn't my style! I want to sing out loud and get there first! # eyecatch Basara has begun singing! It's only fifteen minutes into the operation! Why so early? Captain Myria, what is happening on the fourth planet? Max... Your capture is my priority! This is the beauty of our action! You came to listen to me sing? I'll give you something to listen to! # Planet Dance Glavil! How dare you! Let's head straight for Polar Star! D-2, D-3, are you with me? Yes, sir! Follow Docker! What are you thinking, Gamlin? I'm going to protect Sound Force. Are you serious? I believe in Basara's music! You idiot... Virgo and Gemini units have been destroyed. Aries unit is unable to approach the battlezone. The Aquarius and Pisces units are unable to progress due to enemy attacks. Only the Scorpio unit, Emerald Force, is still approaching Polar Star. Understood. After the completion of the operation, gather the survivors... ...and take them back to Macross 7. Roger. The Stargazer, eh? Damn. If this is the best plan I can come up with,... ...I'm hardly the genius people claim I am. Fold booster on. Auto coordinates locked on. Target, Polar Star. Beauty of explosion, beauty of fire, beauty of light! What? Leave this to me! Go ahead, Basara. Right! Thanks, Gamlin. You, I won't forgive. You can't fool me with that again. The beauty of learning! Commander, don't try to keep us out of it. We'd follow you anywhere. All right! Attack the enemy leader unit with R formation. Roger. Get out of my way! Voldick! Matthews! Bastards! Just how many of them are there?! We can't dodge all that fire. Don't whine! But... We're Fire Bomber! Basara... The stage is right in front of us. Sing, Mylene! Let's go! Fire! # Holy Lonely Light Damn you! They are glowing with battle light! I'll add a flower to that beauty. Mylene! He followed, as I thought! What?! Gamlin... Commander... Commander Gamlin! Gamlin! This beauty of destruction! No! It can't be true! No... No! NO! Mylene, hold yourself together! Gamlin, Gamlin! You... Why you... You... Why don't you understand yet!? What the!? Damn, he's my real target! Polar Star confirmed! Operation complete. 120 seconds to detonation of the Reaction Weapon! All units retreat beyond the atmosphere. Captain Max? Mylene, we're leaving the area. But, what about dad? There are a lot of enemy units here still. I'll be all right. Return to the ship, Mylene! What's going on, dad? Daddy, daddy! Mylene! But, dad is staying there, isn't he!? No, dad come back! Daddy! Basara, what are you going to do? I'll bring back Mylene's father. Basara, I'll go too! You'll get in the way. Go home! No! # Power to the Dream Mylene, we're going! No! I'm going to rescue daddy too! Mylene, you'd just get in the way. Viffidas... Come on... Myria, we did it. Basara, why are you here? You're disobeying orders! Anima Spiritia! Hurry, pull it out! Never mind. Leave it there. Lord Gepernich. Ten... Nine... Eight... Seven... Six... Five... Four... Three... Two... One. What? What happened? I was waiting for this moment. They used our Reaction Weapon against us. Those damn bastards! Now we have no way of returning home. My name is Gepernich. Let us talk of dreams, under the light of the stars. Gepernich! Next time Give Gamlin back to me! Mylene, the concert is not over yet. What has all of our singing been for? I'll make those Protodeviln understand my singing. Next time, Ambitious Fourth Planet. Radically Fire! Special Presentation Myria the President I am Myria. Myria Faleane Jenius. I represent the citizens of the Macross 7 fleet. I am the mayor of City 7. Or you can call me Myria the President. Normally, I manage all the affairs of the mayor without a problem... I'm tired! Press harder, will you? But when the citizens are faced with danger... I destroy the enemy gracefully, smartly and elegantly in my red Valkyrie. Right there, ooh that feels good! I gently instruct those who are not skilled at operating a Valkyrie... What are you doing, you nincompoop! Hurry up and change into Gerwalk! I'll show you a real dogfight! I'm sure glad I hired you, Michael. I protest fiercely against the unreasonable actions of the army,... ...and try to arrange a marriage for my fickle daughter. And what a nice body! # Myria song. Not only that, but I can sing. With my ever-present smile, I am loved by the citizens. I enjoy greater than 90% approval. Mayor Myria, these complaint letters... Again? Just Throw those out. That's me, Mayor of City 7, Myria Faleane Jenius. You can call me... Myria the President! Aren't you a little old to act like that? Who are you calling old?!
