Set in the same universe, the story continues to explore the adventures of the Fire Bomber band and the New UN Spacy as they face new challenges. The narrative is divided into several episodes, each focusing on different characters and events that complement the main series.

The first episode, "The Galaxy Is Calling Me," centers on Basara Nekki, the lead singer of Fire Bomber, as he embarks on a solo mission to spread his music across the galaxy. His journey takes him to a remote colony where he encounters a group of people oppressed by a tyrannical leader. Basara's music becomes a catalyst for change, inspiring the oppressed to rise against their oppressors. This episode highlights Basara's unwavering belief in the power of music to bring about peace and unity.

The second episode, "Fleet of the Strongest Women," shifts focus to Mylene Flare Jenius, the bassist of Fire Bomber, and her fellow female pilots. The story revolves around a special mission where Mylene and her squad are tasked with protecting a vital supply convoy from enemy forces. The episode delves into the dynamics of teamwork and the challenges faced by women in a male-dominated military environment. Mylene's growth as a pilot and her determination to prove herself are key themes.

The third episode, "On Stage," provides a behind-the-scenes look at the Fire Bomber band as they prepare for a major concert. The episode explores the personal struggles and relationships within the band, particularly the tension between Basara and Mylene. As they rehearse and deal with internal conflicts, the band members must also contend with external threats that could jeopardize their performance. This episode offers a deeper understanding of the characters' motivations and the pressures they face as both musicians and soldiers.

The final episode, "Dynamite Explosion," ties together the overarching narrative of the series. Basara and Fire Bomber are called upon to assist in a critical battle against a powerful enemy fleet. The episode showcases the band's ability to combine their musical talents with their combat skills, using their songs to inspire their allies and disrupt their enemies. The climax of the episode features a dramatic showdown where Basara's music plays a pivotal role in turning the tide of the battle.

Throughout "Macross 7 Plus," the series maintains a strong emphasis on the themes of music, love, and the human spirit. The characters' development is intricately woven into the plot, with each episode providing new insights into their personalities and relationships.
