Macross Dynamite 7 Episode Guide
Episode Guide Descriptions:
Notes - my specific notes on an episode, things to
watch for etc. I will not give any major story details
and definately no major spoilers.
Song Anime Debuts - Which songs first appear in that
episode, and if a different version is used, this is noted.
"(no CD)" means that version of the song is NOT found on
ANY of the soundtrack CD's available, much to my annoyance
a lot of the time!
Importance Rating - out of 5. I mark the episode in how vital
I see it in the role of following the entire series. This might
be useful if you are wanting to show someone only selected episodes
or if you have missed or are missing an episode for some reason, and want to
know how bad you will miss it.
Released - Release date in Japan. There have been
no official Western releases of ANY Macross 7 material.
Other? - I will also add links to episode synopses or full scripts
available, on my site, or others.
Episode #1 "Wander"
Notes:
The official English episode title is in fact "Wonder" on the Japanese release, however translating
the Japanese title reveals this is actually a mistake, and it
probably should really be "Wander".
The soundtrack BGM for Dynamite 7 is mixed from the BGM for Macross 7 TV,
Macross II and Macross Plus, and is very interesting listening
for the the Macross music otaku.
Elma also sings some Fire Bomber songs but in a made up language - Zolan.
Song Anime Debuts:
Dynamite Explosion, New Frontier - acoustic style (no CD)
- I call it the "Kuji-ra Fight Version", Go (Jiyuu na Uta),
Parade, Planet Dance in Zolan.

Importance Rating: 5
Released: 18th Dec 1997
Episode #2 "Cemetery"
Notes:
The 2nd episode of Dynamite 7, and it is even more amazing than the first!
One incredible thing to watch for is that one of
Elma's songs is in fact a Zolan version of a track by
Humming Bird (the band that forms the basis of Fire Bomber's
musicians, see Fire Bomber section for more details). More
Humming Bird info coming soon.
Song Anime Debuts:
Feel Universe, Yumi no michi - sung by Elma (no CD)

Released: 25th Feb 1998
Episode #3 "Lonesome"
Notes:
The release date for this episode was pushed back.
The opening credits slowly change through the episodes of Dynamite 7.
On episode 1 it's possibly the best anime opening sequence EVER, but
by episode 3 it has reached INSANE levels of brilliance, and again caused
me to go crazy when I first saw it. There are a lot more crowd scenes and
shots of the Fire Bomber band members in the concert now.

a lot.
