Macross Delta

Macross Delta (マクロスΔ) is a sci-fi idol-mecha anime set in the far future of the Macross universe, where humanity’s deep-space expansion is threatened by the mysterious Var Syndrome—a violent, mind-altering condition spreading across frontier worlds. The story follows Delta Flight, a special-response unit piloting cutting-edge variable fighters, and Walküre (ワルキューレ), a tactical idol team whose live songs aren’t just entertainment but an essential countermeasure that can calm the outbreak and turn the tide of battle. Blending high-speed aerial dogfights, pop performance, and political conflict between rival powers in a remote star cluster, Macross Delta doubles down on the franchise’s trademark idea: in a universe of escalating weapons, music and emotion can still be decisive forces.
