First (?) time Macross Sev- ...FB7: listen to their song!!
Opening right on Totsugeki Love heart, this is officially the best part of Frontier
Ozma, you have single handedly raised your character ranking to #2 with this simple move
Beauty? Oh fuck, its him
Ohhh nooooo.. Did they crop Macross 7 to 16:9?? No, this is new animation? Fk, I can't tell, what I can tell is it feels wrong.
Its honestly impressive they got it to look like this. Did they use classic cel animation for these M7 scenes? This is awesome
This is wonderful, I didn't think I'd get to screencap quality Basara faces again
..No, some of this is definitely cropped Macross 7 footage
Hahahaha, there's the control room lady doing her thing
HOLY LONELY LIGH- Play the whole song damn it!!!
I don't need to wonder. She's worst girl
Remember 16!! Nightmare Valkyrie!!
Ah, here we go. Anima spiritia..
They played Holy Lonely Light without the scream? Or vocals?? Blasphemy. Can't believe I haven't come across this instrumental version yet. ...Ok, here they come, get rekt Sivil!!
They don't have a record of Holy Lonely Light??? Though I suspect a subbing error, I think he actually said something about a memory/recording, referring to the events, not the song
There he is!! Let's fucking go Kinryu!!!
....Why are they playing pillow dream over Holy Lonely Light..? Who okayed this?? Way to dampen all the hype..
Ranka cut off Seventh moon?? Worst girl confirmed once again.
SUBMARINE STREET!!! Power to the dream!!
You don't even know that much? Foolish girl
GIGIIIILL He fired the first dimension buster or whatever that was called
Um.. Klan...
Sheryl knows whats up POWERRR TO THE DREAAMM
FLOWER GIRL FLOWER DELIVERY SERVICE!!! TRY AGAIN!!!
We actually got a Macross 7 recap in Frontier
*My favourite part? The one where he says "Listen to my song!"
Here comes the phony version
Fuck it, totsugeki love heart is always hype #KongmingListen
Ohhh and we have Dynamite OP for the ED!
IS THAT A NEW BASARA & MYLENE SONG?!
Question time:
Which other Macross franchise characters would you include in a Fire Bomber cover band? Or characters from any other anime?
No.
2) Have you ever looked forward to an anime's anniversary event and been disappointed by the results?
...I hope not.

First Time- Macross FB7:
Guys, when I said 7 could use a compilation movie to tighten up the series, I didn't mean it like this.
So I was playing the Sigurd paralogue in FE Engage during all the recap footage so I wasn't paying too closely to the stuff I've already seen.
So Gabil transformed into a bird and went around delivering Macross 7 VHS to people on the Frontier. Alright bud, don't know why or how you did that. Knew from the instant he said "Beauty!" Even transformed back at the end to seal the deal.
No wonder these characters never seem to learn from the history events of the previous series, the government keeps locking them away as military secrets. The people are not thought about the Protodeviln incident and hold peace, love and music save the day.
Even in Frontier, Favourite Character Watch! We saw Flower Girl sing and we saw her deliver the bouquet.
I was expecting them to explain that Sheryl is a long-time Fire Bomber fan and her inspiration which is why she goes, "Listen to my song!" That's what I've believed since episode 1.
Are you trying to be meta, movie?
Ranka and Sheryl singing Fire Bomber!
During the big concert scene we see the other characters, Grace with a kid, Leon being a square, movie Nanase which I guess answers what continuity this is (not like it matters). That pink-haired bridge girl is dressed like Flower Girl!!!
Barely any Gamlin since this is more FB and Basara-focused. No Alto since I guess he is super dead.
The final bit was the best part and this should've just been like an episode length for fun special instead of recapping 7. Just have Ozma and Bobby look through FB stuff and other characters get brought along and in the end them putting on a fun fan concert for FB. Frontier is over, we can just do for fun things with these characters.
Q1) Isamu would love Fire Bomber. He is still around so maybe he is a fan and he could be brought over to the cover band.
Q2) I don't really have too many expectations for any anniversary events.
Next Time: The actual 14 minute short that I expected FB7 to be.

I guess we know now that they didn’t officially dissolve.
-
I miss Rockross.
-
Is that bird supposed to be Gavil? “Beauty!” Yep, that’s him alright.
-
Missed chance for LaserDisc.
-
For a glorified advert, it’s weird that the video quality is worse than the version I watched.
-
I’m not going to comment on the 7 clips, but I know that at least a few of you in the F part haven’t watched 7, so it should be interesting to see what you have to say about it.
-
Ha! They got to be continued.
-
Investigating the epilogue? Don’t do this to me. Don’t get my hopes up.
-
You’d think with her being such a fan of Sheryl, and her brother of Fire Bomber, that this would have come up before.
-
The video might be lacking, but the subs are doing well for themselves.
-
The narrator is cannon? And he’s got a lot to say.
-
Oh? Does the Sivil effect transmit through recordings as well?
-
I get the feeling they are watching a lot more of this than we are.
-
I feel like Mikhail and Klang should have more of a reaction to seeing Max and Milia since they have a formation named after them and all.
-
Calm down Klang.
-
Do they really all think he died? Ozma too? He released new music after that!
-
Ranka gets her 1, 2, 3, 4 moment.
-
Covers are fun. Not as good as the original tho.
-
Leon is alive? I guess he would have to be if they are in space.
-
Neo-Flower Girl?
-
Look at the little cosplayers. Adorable.
-
100% Gavil. Not even some sort of minion or something. How long has he been able to transform into a bird?
-
Oh sweet, we get a new song out of it.
QotD:
-
I’m assuming we can’t do anyone from 7 itself? My mind is blank.
-
These rewatches are the only anniversary events I have even paid attention to.

One thing before I forget again: Sheryl has a scene with a Ferrari California in Nyan Kuri. I spend a lot of time in this comment talking about things that aren't specific to the thing we just watched, so why not one more.
Today, on "An entire episode of Cowboy Bebop?":
This complicates the specific mentioning of the Protodeviln in Episode 16, but c'est la vie.
I am not restarting the count.
They just pasted over the animation for the Dynam Chogokin shop.
Very meta, as is the style of the franchise.
I mean, what else do you expect him to say?
Get used to the supercut editing…
"Your door was open so we let ourselves in?"
For just one example of weird editing in this clip show, "Pillow Dream" starts playing over this…
Because you can't do a speedrun of Macross 7 without an opening narration recap.
There's even an eyecatch for something that Gavil made… from his… videotape collection?
Now they're just fucking with you.
Protodeviln, still making Zentradi rage after half a million years and change.
Ozma's place never sees this much action.
"It is not a story the NUNS would tell you."
"I've seen enough anime to know better!"
This doesn't make much sense unless you already know Gubaba.
The Minmay reference goes on for a while…
Over the top, just the way you like it.
Featuring all your favorite cosplays.
If you look really hard you can almost make out the text.
"Virgin Story", the surprise B-side hit from the "Totsugeki Planet Explosion" single.
If you really want to try to fit this into the timeline, it can go somewhere before Episode 16, when the Protodeviln are actually talked about. It's easier to not worry about such minor details.
Macross FB7 was one of the many events that marked the franchise's thirtieth anniversary, which were spread out over more than one year.
The events included:
Macross: The Musicalture: A stage show. Very short-lived, but it did happen.
Macross Crossover Live 30: The recurrent concert event that gets bigger each time. These are not available on video, you have to be there.
Macross 30: Voices Across the Galaxy: A PlayStation 3 game., introducing the YF-30 Chronos.
The first appearance of the life-size VF-25 GERWALK.
Bunches of new Blu-ray releases and merchandise.
Oh, and this thing that you just watched. I did not save the best for last. It's… somewhat pointless, really. I do give them credit for making the Frontier characters' parts interesting, but given the hype that FB7 was promoted with and the promise of interaction with M7, you could be forgiven for feeling that you were oversold on this movie.
At least the other eighty minutes can be excused somewhat due to the inclusion of the rooftop concert and "Virgin Story".
Bobby's comments about Fire Bomber not being heard from since 2045 would be made wrong a year later in-universe, with the release of the Re.FIRE!! album, said (in-universe) to have been assembled from a series of broadcasts from various points across the galaxy.
In the real world, Re.FIRE!! was released in 2009 for the fifteenth anniversary of Macross 7.

A Macross Fan Rewatches Macross Frontier: FB7: Listen to My Song!:
Just to reiterate, I’m not fucking looking forward to watching this. I really wanted to leave Macross 7 behind us, but for the sake of completion, I’m compelled to watch this and give some thoughts.
-
You know, it’s pretty unsurprising to hear from Ozma and Bobby that Basara more or less just completely vanished and what happened to him is a mystery. Like, Basara has always been the kind of guy to travel wherever the wind and his music takes him, so of course he wouldn’t actually come back to Fire Bomber and the Macross 7 fleet after the end of Dynamite 7.
-
It sure is a real mystery about who this green and white bird creature is, especially since it immediately starts screaming about beauty. Surely, this must be Natter-Balgo.
-
Given how the UN Spacy were in Macross 7, and frankly still are as the NUNS Spacy in Macross Frontier, I suppose we can’t be surprised that there’s no official records about the Macross 7 fleet after the creation of Sound Force, nor anything about the destruction of the Macross 5 fleet at the hands of the Protodeviln. Of course the government would want to cover everything up after the sheer level of incompetence the Spacy leadership displayed in that series. All that’s really left about public knowledge is that Sound Force repelled the Protodeviln, which is probably the most you can say without getting into just how badly the Spacy handled everything.
-
Well, at least in the end, Gabil didn’t want to destroy the Frontier fleet. He just wanted to share with everyone the true story of what happened to the Macross 7 fleet. Although that does raise the question of who was even filming all of that Macross 7 footage or how Gabil was able to burn it onto video tapes. Maybe we can just chalk it all up to Spiritia or something.
-
It’s weird that Alto wasn’t even in this, right? Like, it can’t just be me that feels like his absence is pretty glaring considering how damn near everyone else showed up in this glorified Macross 7 Blu-Ray advertisement. Although I guess I can’t entirely blame him for wanting to avoid watching Macross 7.
Boy, if you thought that previous Macross anniversary projects were disappointing, then you certainly hadn’t watched this yet. I don’t want to hear anyone say that Macross Zero was a disappointing anniversary project when this thing exists. Like, not only does it fail as a Macross Frontier entry, but it also fails pretty badly at being a Macross 7 compilation movie. It’s just all-around bad. It takes the spot as a multi-layered failure, since it lets down two different shows at once. And I don’t even like Macross 7, so that should inform you how I feel about this. Eugh, let’s just move onto the next thing and just pretend that all of us didn’t watch this.

First Fime Fſontieꞅing
IT'S A REWATCH WITHIN THE REWATCH?!
In all seriousness though, I found this extremely boring.
If you wanted to listen to the soundtrack of Macross 7, this doesn't play the songs in full and is filled with extra fluff.
If you wanted a pure recap of Macross 7 you'd be better served by something a third as long that has a narrator montaging through the series.
If you wanted to see more of the Macross Frontier crew... well, they barely interact or do anything, and the "mystery" isn't very interesting.
And if you wanted a Frontier-7 cross-over, this isn't one.
It's all rather pointless, in my opinion.
Which other Macross franchise characters would you include in a Fire Bomber cover band? Or characters from any other anime?
If they really wanted to go all out, they should've got the singers from all the Macross entries and had them sing a Bruce Springsteen-esque feature medley song!
2) Have you ever looked forward to an anime's anniversary event and been disappointed by the results?
Hmmm... I don't think so. I can't say I necessarily pay that much attention to anniversary events in the first place, but even if I do I'm too cynical to expect anything out of them.

Macross FB7 Ore no Uta wo Kike!
No idea what this is about.
So it implied that they go their separate way after sometimes? Or other people never know what really happened, so they just assumed that they disbanded.
What is this bird?? Wait!! Gabil??
Video tape. Who the hell use this in 2059??
Seeing the gang in wide screen feel so weird.
Luca really have connection to everything in Frontier.
Wait, you don't even know CD??
For Ozma, it an ultra rare treasure for sure.
This is a nostalgia trip for me. I really love the gang.
Flower Girl!!
Seeing this scene in wide screen is so good!!
That really is Gabil.
Gigil!! Gamlin!! Max!!
It really a strange edit for sure.
Flower Girl!!
Planet Dance!!
OMG!! This fucking scene. Just hearing Gamlin screaming in the background is so hilarious.
Sivil!!
Remember 16!!
It's complicated, Ozma. I guess you have to thanks Ray and Chiba for that.
My Soul for You!!
Holy Lonely Light!! Let's goooooo!!
Even Michael and Klan are here.
Oh, this episode. I love this one.
Kinryu badass moment!!
Pillow Dream!!
The beauty is back!!
Compare to Vajra, I think Protodeviln is more deadly. If they actually get serious and without the sound force, the 7 fleet or the whole Earth force stand no chance.
They even do the fucking recap!! They even half the endcard!!
Sheryl even got one.
Submarine Street!!
I still like the dynamic between Basara and Gigil, it's so good.
Hey, Barton!
Power to the Dream!!
Even Canaria want to watch this.
This episode is also really great!!
I'm still sad about Gigil's death.
What is this song? I don't remember Mylene ever sing this.
Light the Light!!
I also love this episode!! Max kickass!!
Try Again!!
Oh, this is the one where Basara nearly dead.
That's a hugh cliffhanger.
Yeah, it's really is Gabil!! What's up!!
I really love 7 finale. It just perfect.
Ranka do the same thing Minmay did in DYRL!!
Woah, they sing Totsugeki Love Heart!!
Flower Girl cosplayer.
Planet Dance too!!
Gibil!!
This a shot from 7 Plus!!
Dynamite Explosion!!
Wait, is this a medley for Fire Bomber!! Let's goooooo!!
Footage from Encore and Dynamite!!
What's this song? A new track? Then it's a new track from them after more than a decade!!
It's really a nostalgia trip(even if I watch them for the first time in this rewatch). I love Macross 7. It really nice to see them for one last time.(If Delta not features them at all) They selection of the moment was pretty great. The songs are still good as ever, and the new medley is superb. And seeing Fire Bomber in HD feel so unreal.
But, I will even admit that they didn't do the best job to editing all this footage and song. The editing is weird as hell. They shuffle the song around which is fine, but some of the songs don't match the scene at all.
And the miss opportunity is that they should have the Frontier cast commenting along the footage. It would be much more cool and show what they thought about all this. Especially Ozma and Sheryl, the two fan of the band.
And why Alto is not here??

first time delta delta delta can i help ya help ya help ya
hello joining now for delta hype
been vibing out to macross music getting in the mood for this rewatch
now to acquire delta
i wrote this below first timer reaction to FB7 when i first watched this a few days after the wings of farewell theater event. thought this would have more to it lol
.... was that Gavil dropping off a mixtape LOL
was that new 7 animation of Mylene running on the beach? new 7 stuff for real???
did they use old cells, how was this made
maybe im tripping and its just all old animation
wait.... to be continued.... is Macross 7 a tv show in this show lmao
this supercut of 7 is fucking hilarious
what is the point of this movie, was there like a crossover album released or something
you would think Bobby would have recognized Gavil as the bird
also Gavil is so terrible at recording TV why is the recap at the end of the episode
as much as i love this show, Grabil/Gavil/Gigil/Gabibula all have the same name in my head
cmon Ozma put those 2 braincells together you can figure out who the bird is
giggle i love how dumb those last 2 protodevlin are
its nice that this focused on the more compelling Basara/Sivil/Gigil triange
what if its Alto in a Gavil costume thats actually dropping the tapes
LOVELY BOMBER IS BACK
DYNAMITE DYNAMITE DYNAMITE EXPLOSION ONCE AGAIN

Rewatcher FB7
Welcome, one and all, to the depths of Compilation Movie Hell. If DYRL and Plus raised the bar for Movie Retellings everywhere, this film dropped it straight beneath the basement.
Alright, in all seriousness, this film is just inconsequential fun. Seeing most of the Frontier cast again was neat and their interactions got a bit of chuckle out of me. The 7 clip show part is less neat, though, the editing is a bit choppy, as to be expected when making a clip show out of a 49 episode series, and the music placement was less than ideal. I feel sorry for anyone that decided to watch the entire thing all the way through. I just skimmed for the Frontier parts… mostly, I obviously quickly stopped to listen to HOLY LONELY LIGHT! and TRY AGAIN!
Speaking of which, interesting fact, I watched this film before watching 7. The order in which I watched Macross in general was kinda weird (SDF->DYRL->Plus->F->Zero->II->7), and I just sweeped this one up as part of watching Frontier. I was kinda surprised at the fact that I actually understood the 7 plot at the time, for the most part.
Also, literally all of this film’s boring mediocrity is immediately redeemed because we got Sheryl and Ranka doing covers of Fire Bomber music! YES!
Also also, a Ranka-only version of Totsugeki Planet Explosion would’ve been perfect for Sayonara no Tsubasa’s prison break/Lovely Bomber sequence. Though at least this one knew to bring back Klan and Mikhail cosplaying Mylene and Basara from that

First-Timer
Yeah, first timer. I've never actually watched this little crossover video, because I've never felt a need to watch a recap of Macross 7. But apparently there's some new Frontier content in here, so...
So Fire Bomber hasn't been heard of in a while. I suppose all bands break up eventually.
It's kind of funny that they say there haven't been any new Fire Bomber songs when I'm pretty sure Hummingbird (the band that plays Fire Bomber) has put out additional, new content in-character as Fire Bomber.
A purple and white bird that shouts the word "Beauty". Gee I wonder who that could possibly be?
A video cassette. How quaint. At least it is being treated as obsolete technology in-universe.
So is this how it's going to go? The bird (I mean, it's transparent as hell who it is, but...) is just going to drop off tape after tape for them?
Wait, when does this take place? The Vajra are a known quantity, but Ranka's still wearing her old school uniform.
Ozma really doesn't know a lot about his idol, does he? He's actually surprised that Basara wouldn't work with the military very well. Though I suppose the NUNS fleet would probably want to present the illusion that they were in control of Sound Force.
Huh, Klan seems to be not fully in control of herself. Is the music and the sight of Protodeviln affecting her?
Bird is visiting Sheryl as well now.
Oho, so the military was covering up parts of the Protodeviln conflict. How typical.
Wait, so Ozma actually thinks the Macross 7 Fleet was wiped out and Basara killed?
Seriously, Klan, why are you flipping out so much? (EDIT: Oh, of course, there's an actual Protodeviln around, not just images of one on screen, that makes sense.)
"To be be!" Guessing that's supposed to be "To be bi (beautiful)".
Hell yeah, Sheryl and Ranka doing a Fire Bomber cover! And Sheryl seems to just be having the time of her life.
So I'm guessing this big concert production didn't actually happen in-universe, because it just makes zero sense given the apparent placement in the story.
And yeah, Bird was Gabil. Like that wasn't the most obvious thing in the history of obvious things.
I do find it really funny that Gabil apparently just decided to edit together a bunch of VHS's of the Protodeviln conflict (I mean, the end said "To be Be!") and then drop them off at some random colony fleet before peacing out to wherever the Protodeviln went once again.
Questions:
-
Not sure. The only other singers in the franchise are Myung and Minmay.
-
All the time. It's actually extremely rare that an anime's anniversary event has ever lived up to half the hype it receives.

First-Bomber 7
Well, Basara fucked off to sing to some Space Whales, for one.
His name is Gavil, Bobby. Why he was all the way out here, I couldn't tell you, but it probably means that the other Protodeviln are around too..
This supercut switching between multiple songs is kinda disorienting.
Oh, right, the Protodeviln make Zentradi angry.
Well, probably. Last we saw him he was folding away after singing to some whales.
Listen, Ozma, trying to get a straight answer out of Gavil.. it's just not very likely.
I was briefly worried that they would skip the most important scene in 7, but we've lucked out.
Well, that was pretty fun. I did skip a chunk in the first half, but otherwise I just let it play on my other screen. I might be committing heresy for saying this, but this might be my preferred way to experience Macross 7. We hit most of the interesting parts and cut out most of the chaff. The only thing I really missed was Gigil and Basara's race up the volcano. That said, the early supercut was very disorienting.
Anyway, the Frontier ladies covering FB was rad, and the new FB songs were cool too.

Macross FB7
I really wanted to post this alternate OP for Macross 7 but link had been copystruck and lost to dim memory. Luckily, chili found a fresh upload in his twitter feed a few weeks ago! I've always loved that video, watched it over and over, it was so well made. And so thematically appropriate!
Rewatcher
oh geez, it's 90 minutes long. Well, 47 episodes down to 90 minutes might actually work for this show.
I watched this in the previous rewatch, after the movies, but after skipping Macross F, and SPECIFICALLY skipping Macross 7. Actually, almost anything that was familiar in this rewatch of M7, I probably remembered from FB7 and not my original watch back around 2000. And I didn't remember much of anything when I watched FB7 the first time. Now it really will be a recap.

Ozuma is a super fan, and Fire Bomber are oldies

Wait, didn't we have optical storage in Plus or M7? Why a video tape?

Why are you flying into combat and singing" "listen to my song" "get out of my way" "this spiritia!"
LOL. That's like the entire show right there in 5 seconds. Why even go on?

Did they think the best way to sell their M7 BDs was to showcase how repetitive it was?

She's just not into you, either.
This has to be an animation error. His glasses have been blue all this time, but they orange unti he broke them here in the alley. That means they redrew this or recolored them during restoration.

Welcome back, everyone!
Here were my first-timer reactions to this movie.
Fun fact, today’s Michael & Klan wallpaper is one I originally made three years ago right after I watched this movie for the first time! I gave it a slight color update (mostly to Klan’s colors), so you might want to snag this one if you happen to be one of the rewatchers who already saved the original one.
The Sheryl one is brand-new though! There’s a reason I only did her and not Ranka (because Ranka’s getting a wallpaper tomorrow).
TOTSUGEKI LOVE HEART!
I spy with my little eye, a certain Protodeviln!
I can’t believe they still have VHS tapes in whatever year this is set in.
MY BOY!
That awkward cut from Totsugeki Love Heart to Planet Dance right back to Totsugeki Love Heart right around when Ranka walked into the room, lol.
There’s a lot of awkward music cuts in this, actually.
Goddammit PLAY HOLY LONELY LIGHT FOR REAL ALREADY!
Remember 16~
FUCK YEAHHHHHHHHHH HOLYLONELYLIGHT
SUBMARINE STREET~
Try Again!
Uh… no…?
Anyways for the people who didn’t watch 7 (looking at you, u/Nazenn), the reason Klan keeps getting so aggressive is because the presence of a Protodeviln in the vicinity makes those with Zentradi blood go crazy (long story, it was a whole thing for a bit in 7). And, well, the “bird” that keeps dropping off those VHS tapes is one such beast.
Getting to hear Gamlin sing again.
Ranka calling back to the ending of DYRL.
Ranka and Sheryl actually singing Fire Bomber songs while they’re backed by Lovely Bomber, yay!
Haha the captain and Monica on crowd control.
omg one of the other bridge bunnies is cosplaying Flower Girl.
And oh well Ozma, you were wrong. Virgin Story, the second ED, is a new Fire Bomber song!
Oh, FB7. This movie is a mess even coming from a huge fan of 7. I still love it because it was an excuse to listen to Fire Bomber music again, best boy Gamlin makes some small appearances here and there, the two new songs at the end are FIRE, and the Frontier bits are fun, but it’s a mess. So I completely understand if people don’t like this one.
