Macross Frontier: Labyrinth of Time (劇場短編マクロスF～時の迷宮～)

MACROSS Frontier: Labyrinth of Time

It's been over half a century since

humanity's journey among the stars began.

During that time, we came into contact with many alien races, including some

descendants of the long lost interstellar civilization known as the Protoculture.

Many tears have been shed because of this, both in grief and in joy.

Hey, everybody! You all having a good time?

I'm sorry to say this, but... this next song will be the last one.

We want more!

This song is for those I hold dear.

I hope you like it.

It's been some time since that fateful day.

To put an end to that tragic war,

Sheryl burned what was left of her life with a song that moved the galaxy.

To this day, she still sleeps.

Ranka?

Fold Waves?

Shush!

The Galactic Heritage Bureau has given clearance for us to investigate.

Thanks for always helping out, everyone.

Checking out lost technology is also the job of Super Dimensional Tour escorts.

Plus we get to go to your concerts.

This place is really amazing though.

The Well of Souls' a temple left behind by descendants of the Protoculture.

The Well of Souls...

A place to commune with the gods.

Legend says it was used to converse with the dead as well.

Please make this quick, Ranka.

You still have new song lyrics to finish.

And we leave for your next tour stop tomorrow.

Sorry for worrying you.

But I feel that I might reach him this time.

Here you go. Taiyaki and tuna buns, your favorites.

This setup looks like a gravesite every time.

Hey! Don't say that.

That's right. Alto promised he'd come back alive, so there.

- -

What was that?

Fold Waves!

Just as I thought. It must have reactivated in response

to Ranka's voice during last night's concert.

It's calling me.

- Huh? -

It's Alto who's calling!

Wait! It's too dangerous!

Ranka!

Ranka!

- Huh? - Alto?

- Is it really him? - No, it's just her projected memories.

I'm getting strong readings from both Ranka's brain,

and the Fold Bacteria in her abdomen.

Hello, Ranka?

What is it? It's pretty late.

So you can't sleep.

Well then, can you see towards the eastern sky?
