Alto and Ranka pursue their dreams but find out not everything worth doing is necessarily easy. In the end, both see some sucess but still have a long way to go.

Alto, Ranka, and Sheryl narrowly avoid disaster as the Vajra resume their attack. Later, Alto learns more about Ranka's past while Ranka makes a move to better her future.

Alto does his best to rescue Ranka from the attacking Vajra before Ozma and Michael are able to put an end to the battle. Later, Ranka meets one of her heroes: Sheryl Nome!

As first episodes go, the Yak Deculture Edition of Macross Frontier is a very strong introduction to the fifth major Macross series.
