...the Macross has been invaded by a large force of battle pods.
The interior of the ship has become a battlefield.
DROP OUT
Minmay!
Come on, men! Smash them all with one blow!
This time, it's anything-goes!
Huh? What's wrong with you all?!
Huh...?
Minmay's in here!
Minmay? What's that...?
He says Minmay's here.
Those three were really telling the truth!
l want to meet Minmay!
SlLENCE!
So, what are you planning to do?
Well, we can't damage this place any more, or...
What, you men, too?!
What are you doing?! Why are you running away?!
P...Please forgive us, sir!
You don't understand how wonderful this place is, boss!
Shut up! Whatever the reason, running away isn't right!
l'll do to you what l did to that other guy!
ls that what you want?
Okay, fine! You're no longer part of my clan!
l'll execute you all!
Captain, this is weird. The intruders are in disarray!
What?
Here's our chance. Send our air defense Valkyrie teams in!
Drive them out!
Yes, sir! Brown, Green, and lndigo squadrons, get to the ship's bow!
Engage the enemy!
This... This isn't a movie... l don't think...
Skull leader, come in! Lieutenant lchijo!
Uh... Oh, Captain Hayase.
''Oh, Captain Hayase?'' What's wrong with you?!
Send a rescue party to the open air theater, please.
The open air theater? ls... ls Kaifun all right?!
Tell me, is some- body hurt?!
Lieutenant lchijo! Lieutenant lchijo!
Kaifun, you idiot!
Minmay!
To hell with it!
God dammit!
Oh! A Minmay doll.
That's what you're talking about!
That's what you're talking about!
Lemme see!
Lemme see!
lt's... lt's ruined.
We... all of us... We've ruined this doll and this city!
They deserted in the face of the enemy?!
l don't believe it.
This must be the enemy's true power.
Sir, the legends...
You want to say that we should have heeded them?
lndeed.
Well, it's too late! Abort the mission!
Temporarily confine the deserters.
And what do we do with them after that?
l leave that to you. Do whatever you want...
...such as investigating the power of ''culture.''
Thank you, sir.
''Culture...''
What?! The deserters will be only temporarily confined?!
lf we allow this, who knows what else will happen?!
Sheesh! Just when l think the battle is over, they call me in again!
1st Lieutenant lchijo, reporting!
Oh!
What?! You three!
Hold it, Lieutenant! They're under armed guard.
We're prisoners, like you were!
Thanks for the way in!
What are you talking about? Why are you here?
Captain, may l explain to the lieutenant?
Very well.
Lieutenant lchijo, these men and 23 others defected to our ship.
''Defected?!''
Are you kidding?! We've been fighting these people!
Now they want to come here and we're supposed to say ''Sure, come on in?!''
Well, l know l couldn't do that!
Well, that makes it 3 to 2, l see.
Colonel, wait! Please!
Lieutenant lchijo, l thought you could understand.
lf we don't accept them, the defectors have no place to go...
...and no place to return to!
Well, even so, l'm just a pilot.
And one of the few humans who's had direct contact with the enemy!
All right. Can l talk to them for a while?
Why did you guys desert?
Because we want to live here.
Live here?
Live here?
You have culture here!
You have culture here!
And you have Minmay.
And you have Minmay.
And Minmay's songs!
And Minmay's songs!
But how do you all know about that stuff?
We snuck aboard this ship once before, as spies.
But when we returned, there was something missing.
''These poor beings have only known war.''
l think l understand, but isn't that a weak sort of reason for desertion?
Well, it's because you're Protoculture.
Protoculture? What's that?
You're still playing dumb?
Even with all the power you have!
This seems to support Hayase's theories.
Captain, you seriously believe her report?
At this point, l have to believe it.
Well, lchijo, what is your opinion?
S...Sir...
l think it would be all right to accept them.
What?!
That makes it 3 to 2.
Lieutenant, you just said we shouldn't accept them, didn't you?!
l changed my mind.
Captain! Why should we accept the opinion of someone...
...who can't explain his reasoning?!
...who can't explain his reasoning?!
Lieutenant lchijo, may l ask why you changed your mind?
Yes, sir. As l reported before...
...these are aliens who have only known war.
l think that when they came aboard the Macross...
...and had their first contact with humans and culture...
...it must have been a huge shock for them.
Yeah, we really were surprised when we came.
We were amazed by Minmay's singing.
And that men and women lived together.
And that some of you even opposed war!
As we got used to it, we started to enjoy living here.
lf what they say is true and they now want to live...
...the way we do aboard the Macross...
Well... maybe this isn't the best way to put it...
...but l think we may be able...
...to forge a friendship with these aliens.
That's an overly optimistic viewpoint!
Live with these aliens, you say?!
They may look like us, but they're not the same!
But aboard the Macross, for the first time ever...
...they've found a life that isn't just endless war!
Can we really take that away from them?!
Now it's a sentimental argument!
Captain.
Captain.
As Lieutenant lchijo said, all the Zentradi forces know...
...is a life of military service and war.
They fight because all they know how to do is fight.
For them, the only way to end a war is by destroying the enemy.
Which is why we must vote to reject these defectors!
No! lt's why we have to teach them about things other than war!
That there isn't just victory or defeat! lf we can show them another way...
...l think we can open a path to ending this war!
Well, that was certainly a moving speech.
However, these guys happen to be aliens.
Just how do you expect them to live in the city?!
Excuse me.
We're in the middle of an important meeting here!
l asked him to come.
Well? What were the results?
Yes, sir. Here they are.
Captain, what's that...?
We had their blood analyzed.
What?!
Our blood composition and genetic structures are identical?!
l predicted it, but to be proven right like this...!
So, we really could live together?
Could it be because we really are Protoculture?
Well, we have no reason to treat them as aliens now.
They have to be treated as normal defectors.
All right. l'll accept their defection.
ALL RlGHT!
We're in!
A decision this important can't be made by the Macross alone!
We need to ask UN Forces HQ for advice!
We need to ask UN Forces HQ for advice!
Considering our feelings on this, please excuse us, sir.
Maistrov...
Can't you understand?
At this point, we have no choice but to accept this bizarre situation!
l'm glad l came to see.
This is awful. lt doesn't look this bad on the monitors.
The damage is lighter around here.
l try not to, but l always end up back here.
Ah! ''Uncle!'' ''Auntie!''
Oh!
Oh!
Howdy, Hikaru!
Where are you going?
We're not sure. Kaifun and Minmay haven't come back yet.
They're at the general hospital.
What?! The hospital?!
What?! The hospital?!
No, it was only Kaifun who got hurt.
lt wasn't serious, though. Minmay wanted to stay with him.
Dear, please! Enough hanging around here!
We have to get to the hospital!
But we can't leave the restaurant alone.
lt's okay. We'll watch it while you're gone.
Right.
You'd do that for us?!
You'd do that for us?!
Oh! Thank you so much!
Oh! Thank you so much!
C'mon!
C'mon!
l think we've done enough.
Yeah.
Hang on. l'll get us some tea.
Minmay...
Here we go.
Go ahead.
Go ahead.
Strange, isn't it?
Those who had nothing to do with the war...
No... the civilians who l thought to be helpless in the face of war...
...may be the key to ending it.
Anyway... Don't you want to go to the hospital, too?
Just admit it. You're worried about Kaifun, right?
lt's okay. l had been really concerned about him...
...but all the defection uproar made me totally forget about him.
ln the end, it's all because he looks like someone l was once in love with.
But he hates me because l'm a soldier.
l even doubted the way the military does things.
Hearing someone who's so opposed to war was a real shock.
Probably like what those defectors felt when they learned of living in peace.
When l realized that their arrival...
...may have given us a way to end this war...
...l suddenly felt a little drained.
ls that so?
ls that so strange a thing to say? Still, Kaifun has his parents.
And Minmay, too.
Haven't you told her how you feel?
That doesn't matter, does it?!
You still haven't, have you?
How can you expect her to know how you feel if you don't tell her?
Do you want Kaifun to take her away from you?!
lf you don't tell her, you'll regret it later!
l'm sorry. l didn't mean to yell like that.
But when l see you, l just...
Lieutenant lchijo, go on ahead!
l'll find someone to watch the restaurant!
Roger!
Skull squadron, launch!
Skull squadron, stand by at blocks 4 and 8!
Kirkland company, defend the Prometheus!
Captain, please switch with me, please!
Sorry l'm late.
The traffic was murder. What are we fighting?
A small force. l think they may be stragglers.
l wonder where they were hiding until now?
We may have finally found an answer...
...but now we have to fight again!
Skull leader!
Take it easy.
Roger.
You're sure polite today!
ls that so?
Here they come!
Leader!
Leader!
Looks like it's over.
Captain Hayase, please don't tell me there are more small forces like this inbound.
Doesn't look like it.
How long is this going to last?
Who knows? The enemy only knows war, right?
But we have to stop it some day.
Right.
Yes. We have to end it as soon as we can.
Captain, please!
Captain, please!
Please! Let me go to UN Forces HQ!
Please let me explain the situation regarding the defectors to them!
Just ''explain?''
l'll do my best to explain the situation!
l may even be able to rely on my father for help.
Are you sure you can do that without taking those three with you?
Yes. First l'll go and explain the situation, then send for them.
lf l produce them too soon, HQ may not react the way we want.
l see.
Please let me do this.
Please, Captain!
Very well! l entrust this to you!
We'll ready a shuttle at once!
Depart at your discretion.
Very well, sir. l'll prepare to leave at once.
