There's no up or down in space.
You can keep floating on and on.
But I thought to myself...
I want to fly...
Even if I might fall...
As long as I'm in a real sky...

I would've wished to have been embraced just one last time.
It's long long goodbye...
~The False Songstress~
MACROSS F
The Movie
Long ago, there was a war between mankind and a race of giants known as the Zentradi.
After its first battle with extraterrestrial life,
Mankind, having experienced the threat of destruction, entrusted its future to expansion into the universe
and set sail in search of new worlds all across the galaxy.
In the year 2059 A.D.
the 25th Giant Immigration Fleet,
also known as the Macross Frontier,
is continuing its great voyage towards the center of the galaxy.
And now,
crossing the sea of stars towards this frontier,
a lone songstress descends.
In a few moments, you will reach an area with artificial gravity.
Please watch your step.
This is quite a lively city.
By the way, are you prepared?
If you can't find the target here either, then you'll...
Grace... I'm Sheryl.
Sheryl Nome sings at her fullest whenever and wherever. It's that simple.
No way! You really got me a ticket to Sheryl's concert!?
Well, yeah.
Michael, Luca and I are doing the aerobatics at the live performance, so that's how.
I'm sending it to you.
Thank you, Alto-kun!
Today's delivery will have lots of extras, so look forward to it!
Oh, deculture!
I'm really going to see her!
I'm heading out!

But if there's love, then do it!
What 'bout my star?
Luca, how are they coming along,
the maneuvers for later?
Start with a split ace
then a triple loop to a sudden turn and ascent.
We'll go with this for now.
How boring.
I'd be able to loop five times.
Did being treated like an amateur by the Galactic Fairy during rehearsal really bother you that much?
I just want to always fly at my fullest.
And if you end up accidentally crashing into the crowd,
I wonder who'll be taking up responsibility for it...
I won't make that kind of mistake.
Saying something like that, are you sure you don't just miss the stage?
Genius "actress," Princess Alto.
What did you just say!?
You make such a fabulous face when you're angry.
What was that!?
Here we go again.
Really now...
My dear princess...
Klan-sempai!
What!
Buzz off!
They just don't grow up.
Say that one more time and...!
Thank you for waiting! Nyan Nyan's here!
I'll say that however many times...
Michael!
You think I'll forgive you?
Ranka!
Yo! Ranka-chan! That was pretty fast.
Oh, yeah.
Well then everyone, here's Nyan Nyan's specialty: "Galactic Ramen!"
Today you also get the "Magellanic Cloud" for free as bonus!
Wow! Magellanic fish cakes! Let's eat!
Oh, the smell of this lovely soup is just so...
Let's eat!
Hey! Come back! Wait a sec, Klan!
As if I'm gonna wait!
Hey, Alto-kun?
Eat together with us?
Here, Nyan Nyan's deluxe tuna buns!
I'm fine, thanks. I have to be as light as possible before flying.
Th-These are...
It's here...

What are these things?
Gilliam, we need to defend the city!
I'm already on it!
Really, what were you thinking?
Isn't it obvious? It's entertainment. Entertainment.
Stop screwing with me! If I was even just one second later...
...then not just you, even the audience...
What fun is there in a predictable lifestyle?
I just want to add more thrill to my singing.
What was that?!
Aren't you the one who said "Don't look down on us!" during rehearsal?
I was properly checking just how well you can fly.
Gas jet clusters!?
How foolish. Like I would entrust my life to some amateur.
Come on! Let's get on with the next one.
Hey!
An evacuation order has been issued. An evacuation order has been issued.
All citizens, please promptly report to the nearest shelter.
This is not a drill.
No way!
Roger, we'll return immediately.
Let's go, Luca.
Understood.
Evacuate?! My live performance has only just begun!
Dammit. What the hell is going on out there?
Purple and Vermilion squadrons have been annihilated.
The final defense line has been breached!
They're going to board Island 1!
Expand the repulsion field! Redirect all available energy!
What's going on here?
Idiot! This place is dangerous. Hurry to a shelter.
No I won't! After having my precious concert ruined by these monsters,
I can't just sneak away without saying a word!
No way!
This is bad!
Sheryl!
Stay calm! Stay calm! Stay calm!
Sheryl! Fly!
But...
Use those jets around your waist!
What happened here?
Hold on tight!
Okay.
VF-25?
It's already been deployed into live combat?
Damn monsters!
No way I'm dying here!
You monster!!!
Stop it!!!
Ranka!
Stay put!
Stay away...
I can do this.
That's not Gilliam.
Who is it?
Ranka!
Why is she here of all places?
Out of ammo?
This is bad!
Please... stop.
An Armored?
Who the hell are you? What happened to Gilliam?
I...
More importantly, what's with these monsters?
Why?
Amazing.
Ranka, are you alright?
Get a hold of yourself, Ranka!
Ranka! It's me!
Brother.
Brother?
Good, get on! We have to get out of here quickly.
No!!!
Brother! Brother! Brother!
Why... Why would you do such a thing?
I... I never wanted anything like this to happen.
No!!!
What's with this fold response?
Alto?
Is it over?
Sheryl-sama, I have come to escort you back.
My apologies, the Vajra invasion occurred earlier than expected.
Brera! How come you just got here now?!
Right shoulder and left foot injured, a total of 7 bruises.
There also seems to be some bleeding on the right wrist.
However, they are all minor injuries.
Stop that! I told you to never scan my body without permission!
How could you forget that?
Grace is waiting for us. Let us return before we get involved in more trouble.
Please excuse me.
W-Wait, not yet!
We'll be going back via the shortest route. Please hold on tight.
Brera!
So they've finally discovered our fleet, huh?
Here are the casualty and damage reports.
Also, here are the countermeasure plans for the mass media and the net.
You're ahead of things as always.
It is an honor to receive your praise.
However, don't you think the timing is a bit too convenient?
Are you saying that Sheryl Nome's visit is part of the Galaxy fleet's strategy?
Begin looking into that matter alongside the investigation of the Vajra.
Unpredictable, huh...
Don't tell me... back then...
In light of the series of attacks , arrangements were made for a mass funeral service for the victims.
According to the staff at NUNS Headquarters, casualties of battle total 228 people.
During the funeral, President Glass began by promising the bereaved families adequate compensation as well as...
Private military company?
Correct.
Michael, Luca and I belong to the S.M.S. which is not part of the army.
C-Captain Ozma!
I know.
Under normal circumstances, even if during a time of crisis...
You would be court-martialed for using the state of the art VF-25 without permission.
But back then...
Correct.
We, the S.M.S., can act independently as a civilian organization.
And so, Saotome Alto, it is up to us to decide what to do with you.
So you're silencing me, huh?
My sister... Ranka... I am thankful that you saved her.
Ranka? Is Ranka doing fine?
The truth is when Ranka is faced with the death or injury of family and friends,
she reacts abnormally.
Dissociative amnesia... also known as psychogenic amnesia.
As a result of a traumatic or stressful event,
the recollection of certain memories becomes impossible.
However, by triggering these residual memories,
it causes intense unpleasantness or fear.
In other words, it's a memory disorder.
Ranka has already recovered.
Hope you don't mind, but I've sent her home.
I'm always causing trouble for you, Canaria.
Don't worry about it.
By certain memories, you mean...?
Ranka... has lost her entire family.
Parents, siblings, all of them.
But aren't you...
I am not Ranka's real brother.
I'm just a worthless pilot who couldn't protect her family eleven years ago.
Ranka has already forgotten all of that,
along with everything else about that horrible incident.
Horrible incident? What do you mean?
Once you've heard it, there's no turning back.
I don't care. I want to know everything.
I'll give you 24 hours to consider it.
Think carefully one more time...
About what you want to do...
And about why you'll fight and what you'll put on the line.
Alto, are you going to run away again?
Run away? Who will?
A real war is very different from the stage performances that you're used to.
Of course I know that!
No, you don't understand.
The way things are now, sooner or later you'll get yourself or someone else killed.
He was a gallant soldier.
Fearless and unflinching,
he fought with all his strength and sacrificed his life for others.
However, this is not the end.
His flesh shall become our flesh, our blood,
our air from which our own lives spring forth.
So, rest for now, my comrade.
Farewell! Until we meet again!
Salute!
Alto, are you going to run away again?
Like you did from the stage and from your home.
That's not true...
I... I!!!

Alto-kun!
That was a nice song.
I don't remember anything from my childhood.
But I can remember this song.
It's my one and only memory.
Is that so...
And you see... sometimes I come to this hill to sing it.
Because no one can hear it here.
I've always thought that living was a given thing.
I wake up in the morning, wash my face, eat a delicious breakfast...
Quarrel or have fun with my brother or with you guys.
But it's all so short-lived, isn't it? Both people and the world.
Jeez... Alto-kun, are you even listening!?
Isn't it strange?
Just by folding a mere piece of paper a couple times,
it changes into a plane that can fly in the sky.
You really like those things, don't you?
A paper plane is kind of like an actor!
A fresh piece of paper changes into something that can fly through the sky!
I don't really intend to go back to acting again.
I wonder if I can fly too.
It's impossible.
I guess you're right. Someone like me can't...
As long as you keep thinking "if I could" and "someone like me," then yeah...
Definitely impossible!
You're so mean, Alto-kun!
You could say that.
I want to tell everyone!
So will you listen to it?
To my song.
Do as you please.
Thank you, Alto-kun!

I don't do this sort of service that often.
Sheryl-san!
Why are you in a place like this?
You have a nice voice. What's your name?
Ranka... Ranka Lee.
Me, a nice voice?
I don't resort to flattery.
However...
However?
How is it that you know how to sing "Aimo"?
"Aimo?"
That's right, "Aimo."
What now!? I'm in the middle of the good part!
Hello Grace.
No way! It's already time for my film shooting?
Just let me be a little lat...
Live broadcast? I understand. I just need to get there as soon as possible, right?
Sorry!
It's already my show time.
I'm in a hurry, so let's continue some other time, okay?
What's up with her?
How did she know that song?
Saotome Alto, Mihoshi Academy Aerospace Department, Pilot Training Course, 2nd year.
As of today, I will be serving as part of the S.M.S..
I'll ask you one more time.
Whenever you are in space, you never know what kind of dangers lie in wait.
Are you prepared?
Of course!
I mean... I am aware and fully prepared, Major Ozma.
He's so dreamy... but that's to be expected of a kabuki actor who plays women's roles.
I can't get enough!
How delicious!
Very well, from now on we will welcome you as a member of S.M.S.!
Dammit!
S.M.S. new recruit initiation rite!
Why you...
Enlisted
Are those guys for real?
What's up with that new recruit welcoming party?
They just made me screw around with them until morning.
What the hell are you doing all of a sudden!?
Hi.
Are you sure it's okay for you to just go off on your own like this?
Aren't you too famous for that?
Oh? You don't like being with me?
Yeah, it's bothersome.
But the week after next I have to return to Galaxy, so today's my only chance.
I absolutely want to find it..
That gem conveys feelings.
It's my precious, protective charm.
Conveys feelings?
If it's not here, then it might have dropped in the cockpit.
Just what is the meaning of this?
Entering the Miss Macross contest without discussing it with me.

Hand it over. I'll talk to the official who handles lost property or possessions.
I said stop it!
Tomorrow I'll be back at work, so I'll check it out then!
Fine... Then I guess I'll be keeping this in exchange.
Give it back!
Come and take it.
That's not fair!
Listen, Michael... This is an order from your captain:
Be sure to find Ranka and bring her back!
Wha... Captain, even if you say that all of a sudden...
Did something happen to Ranka-san?
Sort of.
You're always like that.
Maybe if you had been that concerned about me...
That's all over now.
You're right.
It's all in the past now.
No, it's not Ranka.
Then who is it?
Luca told me that he saw you walking around with a girl.
It doesn't matter who it is.
Anyway, our Captain with the sister complex told me that Ranka-chan got suspended from school.
Suspended? Jeez, just what did she do?
Got it. If I see her...
What the!?
Making excuses for your girlfriend?
Huh?
That girl who sang on the hill, you're going out with her, right?
Going out? I'm not!
So you aren't?
Anyway, how do you know that song from Ranka's memories?
So you really are concerned about Ranka-chan.
I told you that's not it!
Hmm...
If you want me to tell you more about that song, then you'll have to catch me!
Hey!

But the captain... um, your brother is very worried.
Where are you going?
It doesn't matter where I go!
This is why I hate dealing with kids...
But after I've finally found her,
I can't just let her run away.
Wait up! Ranka-chan!
This feels great!
If you keep swinging around like that, you might slip–
Come on! If you're going to catch me, then you'd better start trying!
Then here I come!
Hurry, hurry!
Alright, watch this.
You're totally slow.
Come on!
Shut up!

Just what are you doing...
Idiot, that's my line!
You pervert!
Look around!
Oh, that's right.
You've saved me again.
Jeez...
W-What are you doing?
Don't move.
There isn't much plant and wildlife aboard the ship you're from, right?
You haven't developed immunity to the microorganisms here yet.
So this is just a precaution.
You're quite prepared.
This is... something I learned from training recently.
I see... So you're a soldier?
I hate the army.
Having to follow any and all orders doesn't sit too well with me.
So then... are you with some private military company?
You know about them?
A little.
As long as you get paid, you'd face through any danger, right?
I'm not really in it for the money.
Oh, it's alright! We're both pros after all.
Pro?
I'm a professional singer, and you're a professional fighter.
Well in that case, I'd rather you call me a professional sky pilot.
Sky, huh?
Someday, I'll go to a planet with an atmosphere
and fly in a real sky.
A planet with an atmosphere... I bet there'd be a lot of different scents there.
So it really is true.
Huh?
You don't have implants, and you're made of actual flesh and blood.
Idiot!

This song... My departed mother always used to sing it to me.
The mother of my mother, my grandmother, heard it on some planet and said this song symbolized fate.
On some planet?
Then why does Ranka...
I don't know.
Because it was a first for me too...
Meeting someone else in this vast galaxy singing "Aimo"...
How is that possible...
Could it be related to that incident 11 years ago...
Incident?
Oh, it was nothing.
I guess it really might be a song of fate.
That girl's singing, it sounded quite nice.
It was cute, but...
Somehow, it also seemed a little sad, somewhat lonely.
Yes... Rather than for people, it was more like she sang for the forest and the birds.
You seem to understand her quite well.
I'm a pro after all.
And that girl... Ranka-chan.
Alto... She really loves you.
H-Hey... How could that possibly...

Now let me witness the power of your song.
Island 3 Institute of Alien Biology
From our analysis of the Vajra, we have observed the following:
Its shell is similar in structure to the Valkyrie's energy conversion armor.
It has the capability to fold on its own.
It also continuously produces missile-like objects internally.
Moreover, the most surprising aspect of all...
Its control system, its "brain," is very small.
What?
In brief, we presume that it is being controlled by some other entity.
A biological weapon?
And assuming that these Vajra are being controlled by those on Galaxy...
That means that Sheryl Nome's visit was...
Galaxy's plot...
Let's go back after eating this.
The captain's really worried about you.
No way. My brother has always treated me like a child...
Even though another war could break out again at any time.
I just want my song to reach out to everyone.
You should stop acting so spoiled.
You don't even try to understand what the captain feels when he's fighting. What nerve.
Everyone is certainly trying to forget about the battle other day,
pretending like nothing happened.
Anyway, Ranka-chan... If you want to sing that badly, can you do it right here and now?
Here in this place where no one came to see you.
Hey, aren't you done playing around?
Of course not!
I've told you what I know about "Aimo," so you'd better accompany me until I'm done!
baby doushitai? soujuu
Baby, what do you want? I'm piloting.
handoru gyutto nigitte mou standby
I'm grasping the handle tightly and already on standby.

No? Forget it, let's swing and kiss!

I say a half-baked style is a "No."

Point, Two become one.
but ai nara shite
But if there's love, then do it!
I give up.
What 'bout my star?
Deculture!
Good going, Ranka.
What 'bout my star?
This girl's singing...
Fold wave confirmed.
Cathy!
Hey!
How...
That was great.
Honestly, I was amazed.
It's all thanks to you, Alto-kun!
Speak of the devil...
Sheryl-san.
Thank you. It was really fun.
That's unexpected... for you to thank someone.
Oh, just hush. I don't do it often, so be grateful that I did.
Well then, although I'd like to properly ask that girl about "Aimo",
it's about time I go back for my concert rehearsal.
Oh yeah, for the week after next...
Yep, my "revenge" for the other day.
This time around, I'll be singing even more than last time!
Guess that can't be helped.
I'll definitely find your earring and bring it back.
I'll be waiting, Alto.
No way.
You there!
Ranka!
Young lady!
You must be the fated songstress that I've been looking for all this time!
Will you debut with my company?
Debut?
What?
Did you say debut?
Your singing shall change the world!
My singing?

Together...
Congratulations on your 25th death.
You raised the enemy's difficulty level, didn't you?!
I wonder if it's okay, Princess Two-Timer?
If you make Ranka-chan cry, the captain and I won't let you off easily.

So just when will I get to fly a Messiah?
Well, your skills are fine...
But you get pretty emotional when you're flying.
What was that?
There, there. There's no need to worry. You'll get the opportunity to fly right away, Alto-sempai.
Right away, right away. It's not like we're Nyan Nyan's delivery service.
Speaking of Nyan Nyan...
Nyan Nyan?
Really now, lover boy.
What?
Now's your only chance to clear up any misunderstanding.
You two haven't met since then, right?
Michael.
Ranka!
Did you tell Ranka-san what time Alto-sempai would be back?
Who knows?
Um... Ah, well... I'm sorry for not keeping in contact with you.
S.M.S. training was harder than I imagined.
Oh yeah, I heard this from Luca.
You already made your debut, right? Congratulations!
I never expected that you could persuade that stubborn captain–
...your brother to give his permission.
So... how does it feel to be a singer? Are the lessons strict?
I hope you aren't pushing yourse-...
What kind of songs are you singing now?
Next time... let me listen to...
God damn it!!!
Welcome!
Ranka.
irasshaimase watashi no kokoro ni
Welcome to the shop of my heart.
sagashiteiru no wa nan desu ka
What are you looking for?
chiisana tameiki furueru kimochi ya
There's things like small quivering sighs,
This song...
toretate namida mo arimasu yo
and freshly harvested tears.
Thank you. This is all possible because of you, Alto-kun.
I owe it to your words of encouragement.
koko ni mo kosumosu famirii maato
And also Cosmos Family Mart.
Now I can fly too.
kyou moyou koso watashi no kokoro ni
Welcome again to my heart.
My first commercial jingle starts playing today.

It's good to always have a smile.
It's limited to the Shibuya and San Francisco stores on Island One for now,
haato o onigiri koi suru oden ya
I love a rice ball's heart in a hotpot.
but they say that if the reception is good, it'll play in all shops on Frontier!
atsuatsu mimitabu dou kashira
Why's your earlobe hot? I wonder.
That's amazing, Ranka!
Somehow, hearing my singing in town makes me feel kind of funny.
koko ni mo kosumosu famirii maato
Then there's Cosmos Family Mart.
Don't be. You have a great voice, Ranka.
Um... Well... Ranka, about last time...
Hey, Alto-kun.
Alto-kun, about Sheryl-san...
She's... Sheryl's... That's right, she's a pro.
Pro?
Yeah.
At first, I thought she was merely a good singer with a wild and vile personality.
However, I never expected that she'd be really childish and innocent inside.
At times, she's almost like a totally different person.
But once she's under the spotlight, she's able to bewilder and amaze the audience.
She truly is a professional singer.
But aren't you the same, Alto-kun?
You're said to be the genius child star of the Saotome family.
I'm different actually.
Ever since I was a child, I was forced to hone my acting skills.
Well, it's true that when I was small,
it was fun to please everyone and be called beautiful, but...
I gradually grew sick of following the path my father had decided for me.
You seem so distant.
Huh?
Even though you're right here beside me, you're so far away.
Ranka...
The truth is that I might have just been scared.
I performed all kinds of roles on stage... to the point where it stopped being acting.
And as that happens, you can sense this incredible power creeping in.
It's like the role takes over.
Am I a man? Am I a woman?
I couldn't tell who I really was anymore.
I felt that the existence known as Saotome Alto would just completely disappear.
That terrified me, so... I ran away from the stage.
You will always be Alto-kun.
Whatever happens...
Whenever...
You will always be Alto-kun.
Thank you, Ranka.
Warrant Officer Alto, don't get too close to this woman.
Huh?
This woman, Sheryl Nome, along with the visitors from Galaxy are suspected of being spies.
Spies?! That's absurd!
Perhaps.
But think hard about the few days after Sheryl arrived.
The Vajra attacked right on the day of her concert, and also...
What purpose would the Galactic Fairy have in approaching a mere pilot like you?
To... to find her earring...
And what if that was the plan all along?
Then why would she choose someone like me?
You see...
Ranka is the lone survivor of a family of Vajra researchers on Gallia 4.
What if she knew you were someone very close to Ranka?
Ranka?
No way!
So that's why she knew about Ranka's song!
Ranka's song?
She sang "Aimo," the song from Ranka's remaining memories.
What?
Listen, Alto...
Stop involving yourself with Sheryl Nome.
Furthermore... if they even dare to lay a single finger on Ranka...
Do whatever it takes to stop them.
94, 95, 96, 97, 198, 199 ...
9200, 201, 202 ...
203, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 ...
What are you mumbling about?
I was counting the stars.
I was just about to reach ten thousand too.
Ten thousand? You counted that many...
You can see them?
"A sniper's eye is his life" or so they say.
Michael...
Well? What did you want to talk about?
Mata Hari, Stephanie von Hohenlohe, Ri Kouran, Sharon Apple.
There's more than enough cases of celebrities who were spies
or somehow implicated in terrorist activities.
How could... But... she's... Sheryl is...
Jeez, because you're so naive,
you get all confused in front of beautiful women.
Having that feeling of suspicion is a basic skill for intelligence operatives.
You also think that Sheryl's a spy, don't you?
At the very least, that possibility isn't zero.
Besides, wouldn't you understand a woman's heart even better than me?
Since you're said to be the galaxy's most beautiful kabuki actor, Princess Alto.
Michael!
Your talents are truly wasted on piloting.
If Sheryl's revenge live concert is tomorrow,
then if they're going to strike, tonight might be the night.
A strange land, huh?
Wow. I've never seen anything like you before.
Where did you come from?
Have you been separated from your mama too?
That tickles!
Hey, stop it!
Oh, why you...
Be more feminine, huh...
You're so kind.
That's right! Maybe I could ask Alto-kun to teach me how to dance more femininely!
Alto-kun.
So it was in there all along.
No wonder I couldn't find it.
Who would call me this late?
Sheryl?!
Hello, this is Saotome.
I am unable to answer the phone right now. Please leave a message after the beep...
Really! And I rarely call people up like this too...
Ah, what was it... I'm uhh... going to Griffith Park, so...
Come as soon as you hear this.
If you don't show up, I won't let you off easy!
What's this all about?
Took you long enough...
Sheryl-san?
Ranka-chan, what are you doing out at a time like this?
Um... I'll be having my first mini-concert soon.
Congratulations! So you're finally getting your real debut!
No, it's nothing compared to yours. It's just a small street concert.
I'm just feeling nervous,
I can't remember the choreography well, and I can't sleep at all.
And so I thought maybe I could ask Alto-kun to teach me how to dance, but it's difficult to ask...
Why am I going on like this?
Aren't you cute.
But I...
Don't worry about it. Alto and I were just playing around.
Playing around?
Please come together with Alto.
These are...
I'm ever and always playing the role of the Galactic Fairy, Sheryl Nome.
There are times when I wish I could just return to being myself.
aimo aimo
nederu rushe
noina miria
enderu purodea
fotomi
koko wa attaka na umi dayo
We are in a warm ocean.
What?
You... could it be...
What's happening...
Ai-kun... What's happening to you?
Ai-kun?
Yeah. Earlier today, I found him astray in front of my house.
In any case, that's amazing.
It's definitely having some type of reaction to your song.
To my song?
You came from that planet, right?
That planet, Gallia 4.
Gallia 4?
That's right. Don't you remember?
You were born and raised on that planet!
I don't have any memories of my childhood.
No memories?
I'm very sorry.
Ai-kun!
Wait! I said wait up!
Sheryl.
Ranka?
Wait!
Ranka!
Stop it!
Alto?
Don't lay a hand on Ranka!
Why? Why would you do this to Ranka?
W-What are you doing all of a sudden?
Don't move!
I never wanted to believe... that you're a spy for Galaxy.
Spy? Why would I...
The fact that you just tried to attack Ranka, the sole survivor of Gallia 4, is proof enough!
You only got close to me so you could find Ranka!
That's not it, Alto-kun.
Ai-kun ran away, so Sheryl-san was trying to catch it.
Ai-kun?
You're the worst. I was wrong about you, Alto.
Hey!
Sheryl-san.
There is no doubt about it, Colonel Grace.
This time for sure, we've found what we've been looking for: Code Q1.
However, aren't the fold wave patterns of that girl's singing still too weak?
I'm actually more interested in that green creature.
If there's no data about it in our libraries...
Then it may be related to the Vajra.
They are becoming more and more active.
There isn't much time left.
How are the preparations for tomorrow's mission?
Fairy 9 seems to sustained emotional damage.
Please rest assured.
The Fairy 9 I raised, Sheryl Nome, can use not only joy,
but she can also turn anger and sadness into strength toward her songs.
Tomorrow I'm sure her singing will awaken the dormant power within Code Q1.
Such admirable confidence...
It seems quite a number of people around you have grown suspicious.
Aren't you concerned?
When that time comes, I'll put this boy to work...
to my heart's content.
Roger.
Leave Galaxy's investigation to us.
I'm placing you under house arrest for one day.
But...
Rookies should just stay quiet!
Even if she wasn't trying to attack Ranka,
there's no doubt that she showed interest in "Aimo" and Gallia 4.
Until you're also cleared of suspicion, stay away from her.
But tomorrow is Sheryl-san's final...
What's more important? Singing or human lives?
That's just...
Sheryl Nome: Final Revenge Live, starting in 2 hours. Please be patient.
Sheryl Nome: Final Revenge Live, starting in 2 hours...
Captain, the point inspection for each section has been completed.
Also, the entire ship's outfitting has been completed.
Seems like we somehow managed to make it in time.
There may be some kind of major movement tonight.
Tonight? Does it have something to do with Sheryl's Final Live?
The Vajra attack last time was nothing more than a skirmish.
The next time they come, it will certainly be a bloody battle.
Is that your intuition as a sailor?
This old wound tends to itch right before a storm.
Captain...
A report has come in.
What is it?
It's a SOS.
I was wrong about you, Alto.
Sheryl.
A gem that can convey feelings...
Her feelings...
What the...
Sheryl?
No...
Alone...
Don't leave me all alone.
All alone...
Don't leave me all alone...?
Sheryl!
Down, down...
Alright, stop!
Check the position of lights from L1 up to L72!
Alto!
Sheryl.
Please listen to me. I'm really sorry about yesterday...
Go away!
Sheryl.
At least let me return this to you.
That's...
I won't ask you to forgive me,
and I don't know if you really are a spy or not.
But at least let me tell you this one thing.
No matter what happens...
You are not all alone!
What are you talking about all of a sudden?
I believe that these... your earrings may have showed me the feelings that were buried deep inside your heart.
How presumptuous of you.
Like I could ever be alone!
Sheryl.
That was a wonderful act.
Now then, it's almost time.
What?
The audience over there should stop hiding and come out.
Audience?
So you knew all along, huh?
I expected so. Galaxy's cyborgs are really on another level.
Captain!
You tricked me!
No! I...
Grace O'Connor.
No, Colonel Grace Godunuwa.
Under the Galaxy Security Treaty, Article 17, I hereby detain you for suspicion of espionage.
What an outrageous tale.
What?
Sheryl, listen well.
It seems they won't wait until after your concert is over.
2 hours ago, or to be more precise, on Galactic Standard Time 21:13...
I received word that our mother fleet, Galaxy, came under attack from the Vajra.
Galaxy is...
Mayday! Mayday!
Our forces at the mainland are almost wiped out.
Please, anyone, send...
Galaxy sent a SOS signal to Frontier.
However, your government has decided to take no action on this.
You're lying...
My father... The government wouldn't do such a terrible thing.
Over on Galaxy, there's one rumor flying around...
That Frontier wants to be the first to land on the Vajra's home world
and is scheming to monopolize those resources.
What did you say?!
Is this true?!
It's true. That's why I thought Frontier would be a more horrible place.
No way.
Army superiors have received classified information.
Galaxy's SOS signal is deemed to be a malicious attempt at sabotage and will be ignored.
Ridiculous!
You understand now, don't you?
For the sake of its own agenda, Frontier goes as far as violating galactic treaties
and abandoning its own compatriots.
How could...
Grace, what do the damage reports on Galaxy say?
One third of the frigates has already been lost.
It's only a matter of time before the mainland falls too.
Why have you kept quiet about that?
I had no choice. There's nothing we could do anyway since Galaxy's so far away.
After all, we're neither the New U.N. Spacy nor a private army.
How much will it take to hire S.M.S. for one combat mission?
What?
Answer me!
Is Galaxy telling the truth? Is the Frontier government telling the truth?
Don't you want to know for sure?
Interesting.
The Galactic Fairy wants to become a Goddess of Battle, huh?
Ozma, don't do it! It might be a trap!
One hundred and twenty million credits.
That will account for the use of all fundamental weaponry and Macross Quarter.
The use of optional weaponry is charged separately.
That's a good price.
Here's a Vega Black card.
If that's not enough, I can give you the royalties of my next album.
Well, we'll be gambling our lives on this too.
Lives...
What? Aren't you a pro too? Do you have a problem with this?
No, I joined S.M.S. to be able to protect those in need.
But I never expected to deploy based on your funding.
After the mission is over, come return it to me.
Safely intact of course.
Sheryl.
The deal's been sealed! Our captain has given his permission.
Are you serious? This is why I don't support military privatization.
Warrant Officer Alto.
We the S.M.S., in light of the current situation,
shall immediately commence the Galaxy fleet rescue mission.
Mission code: "Galactic Fairy."
All sections normal.
Defold successful.
We have confirmation of Galaxy's refugee fleet directly ahead of our ship in quadrant 02.
Enlarging image.
How horrible.
The enemy Vajra seem to have a battlecruiser-class ship.
Monica-kun, determine the enemy force's spatial location and troop composition.
Roger.
Ram, open a communication channel.
Tell the refugee fleet that we will be providing them assistance from here on.
Roger.
Mina-kun, order every Destroid unit to prepare for anti-spacecraft combat.
Roger.
Cathy-kun.
Yes!
Our tactics here at S.M.S. are a bit more wild than the army's.
I hope you're prepared.
I wouldn't have it any other way.
All hands to battle stations!
Listen to my song!

How could this be?
M, 5th row... M...
Alto-kun?
But why...
Brother!
It's me. I should have told you in person...
but it's kind of hard to explain.
I've got work. I won't be back tonight.
Work?
But I promise that I'll come back with everyone.
Don't worry while you wait for us.
anata no moto e haruka chijou e muchi no youni utsu ame yo

If we can just destroy this one...
anata no moto e...
To meet you again...
Where are you? Why the love?
Fall into the end of the world.
Fairy, realize that I can feel on my soul.
This next song is very precious to me.
I think everyone here has lived through life so far with lots of new encounters and farewells.
The feeling of no longer wanting to lose something important...
Sheryl-san.
Everybody, will you let me speak my mind for a bit?
I want to dedicate this precious song to a certain someone...
No... to a certain group of people...
To the people in a far off place, putting their lives on the line for everyone's sake.
She knows...
She knows about it.
But even so, she continues...

Defold?
This is... Frontier?!
No way!
Why would they come at an important time like this?
Alto-kun. Brother...
They've come as expected, guided by those girls' fold song.
What should we do? At this rate, we'll...
Don't tell me that the Vajra are coming here?
That's... Sheryl's live concert venue!
Battle Frontier, charge state: 85%.
All friendly forces within firing trajectory, withdraw as soon as possible.
Collecting energy for the Macross Cannon.

91...
92...

The enemy's large-scale battleship has entered the main cannon's line of fire.
Set the large enemy warship as the target.

All hands, brace for fire!
Main cannon, fire!
Target has been hit!
Please wait... Target is still intact!
What the!?
Impossible!
It's the Vajra again. Why?

It's the Vajra.
Run away, Ranka!
The Vajra may be coming after you.
Me?
The Vajra want... me.
At this rate...
At this rate... everyone's going to die... again.
Sheryl-san, hurry up and take cover!
But I still...
Sheryl!
Get on! We've got to escape quickly!
Alto, why are you here?
What about the refugees from Galaxy?
They're fine, so hurry!
Alto-kun?!
The Vajra!
At this rate, everyone will... Alto-kun will...
At this rate...
If... if the Vajra are really out to get me...
I... I...
Ranka-chan!
What the?
Could it be that she's... trying to attract the Vajra?
Alto, Ranka-chan's planning to use herself as bait.
Is that true?
Go! Hurry!
Damn it!
Alto-kun...
Ranka!
What do the Vajra want with Ranka?
Alto!
Even I... Even my singing... can do something to the Vajra!

Hit it with everything we got!
The enemy warship's fold barrier has vanished!
Now's our chance! Fire the Macross Cannon!
The Vajra army has begun retreating via fold.
We've...
won...
Of course! This is how S.M.S. fights!
However... the cost was too great.
All sections, check on the condition of the injured as soon as possible.

Yo! You sure are late, Klan.
Michael.
Michael!
So this is the power of the songstresses...
This is S.M.S. Skull Squadron member, Warrant Officer Saotome Alto to Antares 1.
I am grateful for your assistance.
I merely did what I had to do.
It's snowing!
How beautiful.
The snow of mourning.
Brother...
Are you alright, Ranka?
Jeez, I'm not a kid anymore.
Well done, Ranka.
Alto-kun.
Sheryl.
Ranka.
You both sang very well.
Alto.
Out of the refugee ships from Galaxy, we managed to rescue 7. As for the other 3...
I'm sorry.
You did everything you could have.
I did the same.
Keep it. Consider it as a bonus for protecting all of us.
But this is your precious...
I said I'm giving it to you. Just be grateful and take it.
This kind of service isn't something I do that often.
