This is a list of characters from the anime series Macross Frontier.
Main characters
- Alto Saotome (早乙女アルト, Saotome Aruto)
- Voiced by: Yuichi Nakamura (seiyū)
- Age: 17
- A high school student in the Mihoshi Academy Pilot Training course. As a result of his fine features and long hair he is often mistaken for a girl at first glance, even receiving the nickname 'Hime' (Princess). Despite his appearance, he is otherwise a rather normal boy, though somewhat aloof and standoffish. Born into a well-known Kabuki family, his persistent yearning for the skies has made for a thorny relationship with his father. Alto is now undertaking pilot courses at Mihoshi Academy. He is constantly fretting about living aboard Macross Frontier. After getting the chance to pilot the VF-25 Messiah variable fighter (due to its original pilot Henry Gilliam being killed by a large type Vajra) his flying skills bring the attention of Ozma Lee, who accepts him as a candidate for the S.M.S. Skull Squadron.
- Ranka Lee (ランカ・リー, Ranka Rī)
- Voiced by: Megumi Nakajima
- Age: 16
- A short, lively and cheerful, although naive, green-haired girl. The adopted younger sister of SMS ace Ozma Lee, she attends a girl's high school at the urging of her brother while working part-time in the Chinese restaurant "Nyan-Nyan". Ranka is a huge fan of Sheryl Nome, and got tickets to her concert from her brother as a big favor. She loves singing since her childhood and dreams to become a singer. She is one-quarter Zentradi, which gives her the ability to have her hair move on its own according to her feelings, as well as having an above-average resistance to space vacuum.[1] Ranka also suffers from dissociative amnesia following a Vajra attack on the 117th Large Scale Research Fleet that led to the loss of her family (as well as nearly 1000 other people) when she was only 4 years old, becoming one of the few survivors of that incident. One of her only memories from childhood is a song called "Aimo". Her idol, Sheryl Nome has recognized Ranka's singing talent and encourages her to pursue her dreams. Ranka becomes close friends with Alto Saotome after he saves her from a Vajra attack.
- Sheryl Nome (シェリル・ノーム, Sheriru Nōmu)
- Voiced by: Aya Endo, singing voice: May'n
- Age: 17
- Known as the "Galactic Fairy", she is a pop idol from Macross Galaxy fleet. She constantly tops music charts, and it is said that it is impossible not to hear her songs if you live in this galaxy. Naturally, her popularity is soaring high in Galaxy's sister fleet, Frontier. Due to her beauty and singing talent. She is a very proud and self-assured person. Sheryl has recognized the singing talent of Ranka Lee and often offers to help her 'behind the scenes' to realize her dream of singing. Sheryl's first encounter with Alto Saotome was when he served as a backup 'performer' at her first fleet concert. She later develops an interest in him after he saved her life from a Vajra attack and often sneaks away from her handlers to meet up with him.
Mihoshi Academy
- Michael Blanc (ミハエル・ブラン, Mihaeru Buran)
- Voiced by: Hiroshi Kamiya
- Alto's classmate and friendly rival. He is an excellent marksman, and his motto is to always acquire his targets, be it an enemy or a woman—maintaining his reputation as a considerable ladies' man. He is the originator of Alto's nickname, "Princess Alto". Aside from leading a normal school life, he is also the 2nd Lieutenant of the S.M.S. Skull Squadron and pilots a blue VF-25G (gunner/sniper version). He initially expresses doubt over Alto joining the Skull Squadron, but later accepts him. For normal daily life he wears corrective glasses. Childhood friend of Klan Klien. He also has a nickname which is Michelle.
- Luca Angelloni (ルカ・アンジェローニ, Ruka Anjerōni)
- Voiced by: Jun Fukuyama
- Alto and Michael's junior classmate. He is often frustrated with his seniors, who like to give him a hard time. He is a genius with computers and military electronics. As with Michael, he is a member of the S.M.S. Skull Squadron. He pilots a green RVF-25 (reconnaissance version). His fighter is custodied by three pet Ghost Drones (which he calls Simon, Johanne and Pietro) that respond to his verbal commands.

- Voiced by: Katsuyuki Konishi
- The top ace in the S.M.S. private military company and leader of Skull squadron. A former N.U.N.S. pilot, he has plenty of combat experience backing him up. He also seems to be a fan of Fire Bomber, as one of their songs has been heard over his car radio at least once and because of the fact that he called one of Skull Squadron's battle formations after another one of their songs ("Planet Dance"). Although laid-back and careless on the outside, he knows when to be serious, and believes that the real duty of a soldier is to care for his subordinates and civilians. He is somewhat overprotective of his sister Ranka Lee, and lies to her about his work so she will not worry about him, telling her he has a desk job in a company's personnel department. He is actually unrelated to Ranka by blood and is only her adopted brother, constantly blaming himself for the failure of protecting her real family during a Vajra attack on the 117th Large Scale Research Fleet 11 years ago.
