Macross: Do You Remember Love?
The Super Dimension Fortress Macross: Do You Remember Love? is a 1984 Japanese animated space opera film loosely based on episodes two through twenty-seven of the Super Dimension Fortress Macross animated television series.
The movie is a film adaptation of the original Macross series, with new animation. The storyline of the film does not fit directly into the Macross chronology, and was originally an alternate universe retelling of the story, but was later established as part of the Macross universe. Within the Macross universe, it is a popular movie (in other words a movie within a television series), shown in Macross 7. However, later Macross productions like Macross Frontier have used elements from both the TV series and this film. In Macross tradition, it features transforming mecha robots, Japanese pop music, and a love triangle. The movie gets its name from its romantic themes and also by the song sung during its climactic battle sequence by Lynn Minmay (voiced by Mari Iijima). In Macross Frontier, a later series in the Macross universe, the first few episodes use re-animated key scenes from this film and Flash Back 2012 too gives viewers glimpses of past events.
The film begins in medias res with the space fortress SDF-1 Macross trying to evade the Zentradi, an all-male giant alien race, at the edge of the Solar System. The Macross houses an entire city with tens of thousands of civilians who are cut off from Earth. During the latest assault, pilot Hikaru Ichijyo rescues pop idol Lynn Minmay, but are both trapped in a section of the fortress for days. After their rescue, they develop a close relationship.
The Zentradi, meanwhile, discover the disruptive effect that human music has on them. Their supreme leader, Gorg Boddole Zer, suspects that the human culture is deeply related to an ancient music box he has kept with him for eons. When Hikaru and Minmay joyride across Saturn's rings, the Zentradi capture them, along with Lieutenant Misa Hayase, Minmay's cousin/manager Lynn Kaifun, and Hikaru's superior Roy Föcker.
Aboard a Zentradi ship, the humans are being interrogated about their culture when a squadron of Meltrandi, all-female giant aliens, invades the ship, giving them a chance to escape. Hikaru and Misa escape from the ship, but Föcker is killed while Minmay and Kaifun remain aboard.
Hikaru and Misa arrive on a desolate world that turns out to be Earth, wiped out by a prior Zentradi attack. The two officers grow closer, and discover an ancient city of the Protoculture, where the mysterious origins of the alien giants is revealed. In the city, Misa discovers an artifact that contains lyrics to an ancient love song.
Many days later, the Macross arrives on Earth. Just as Hikaru and Misa are debriefing their story to Captain Bruno J. Global, the fortress is attacked by the Meltrandi. Despite destroying part of the Macross, the Meltrandi are forced to retreat when the Zentradi arrive, using Minmay's singing voice as their weapon.
Captain Global announces a truce and a military pact between the Macross and the Zentradi. Hikaru and Minmay reunite, but Minmay realizes he is now with Misa. Meanwhile, Misa finishes translating the song. When the Meltrandi return to attack, Boddole Zer breaks the truce and attacks the Macross.
