[edit] Plot

After the final battle between Geperuniti and the Macross 7 fleet in 2046 ended in a victory for the Macross 7, Basara Nekki decides to wander around space with just his guitar. He stops on a planet called Zola where a race of humanoid 'elves' live. There he is caught up in a ring of poachers who hunt galactic space whales, huge life forms that are able to travel through space. Macross Dynamite 7 contains some allegorical references to Moby Dick, for instance, Graham Hoilie, who vows to kill the white space whale, is likened to Captain Ahab of Moby Dick.
