“Macross Delta” to Broadcast and Stream Nearly Complete 1st Episode Dec. 31, 2015 in Special Hour-Long Introduction

Information on the latest release in the Macross series, Macross Δ (pronounced *Macross Delta),* is finally being revealed. On Dec. 31, 2015 at 6 p.m., the special program Macross Δ Preview Special will be broadcast on Tokyo MX and BS11. The hour-long program will soon introduce the charms of the series, including things like details on the work’s setting.

The special program to broadcast will likely be the Macross Δ “Preview Edition.” Even 25 minutes could be a real first episode of Macross Δ. The telecast’s detailed schedule hasn’t been released, but fans are hopeful for this program preceding the real broadcast. In addition to airing on TV, this special program will also be streaming on the Macross portal site and Bandai Channel. Many fans will be able to enjoy it.

Macross Δ is the latest work in the Macross series, which began with the 1982 TV series Super Dimension Fortress Macross. Animation will be done by Satelight with Kawamori Shoji as the chief director. Kenji Yasuda will be the director, and Toshizo Nemoto the series composer. The appointment of Chisato Mita, the original character designer from Capcom, has also sparked interest. Majiro and Yuu Shindou will work on character design, and Thomas Romain on world design. The only casting announcement at this time is Minori Suzuki, making her debut as the heroine, Freyja Wion. It appears that everyone will have to wait until the broadcast for the remaining cast.

This work takes place in 2067 AD. On the border of the Milky Way, people lose themselves and turn brutal due to a strange disease called the Val Syndrome. Formed to fight against this is the Tactical Sound Unit, Walküre. Walküre calms the symptoms of Val Syndrome through song, developing live concerts. Around that time in the Kingdom of Wind, a Valkyrie unit called the Aerial Knights begins to move. Wrapped up in a mystery passed down through protoculture, the curtains open to a heated story of teamwork and love.

This work united a young crowd, a classic sci-fi with magnificent live performances by songstress units. Work has also been put in by mechanics, gathering popularity with the variable Valkyrie fighters, the VF-31 Siegfried and the mysterious SV-262 Draken III. Using the latest CG, the dogfights will be of greater quality than in Macross Frontier.

Dec. 31’s special program will have a filmed part in addition to an animated part. It will introduce interviews with Kawamori Shoji, Kenji Yasuda, and Toshizo Nemoto. In addition to location scouting clips including Dubai and Japan Self-Defence Force bases, it also shows Minori Suzuki’s audition clip.
