Isamu Alva Dyson is one of the protagonists of the Macross Plus OVA and its theatrical adaptation, Macross Plus Movie Edition. He also makes a cameo in Macross Frontier Movie: The Wings of Goodbye. He was a test pilot for the YF-19 which was part of the Advanced Variable Fighter initiative under Project Super Nova, and operated on the planet Eden.
Isamu is a reckless and carefree individual who at one point had been best friends with Guld Goa Bowman and their mutual love interest, the singing sensation and talent show winner, Myung Fang Lone. He remained reckless even as a pilot for the U.N. Spacy, and frequently earned the ire of his superiors. When he is assigned as a test pilot for Project Super Nova, he is forced to up his game when he and his assigned variable fighter, the YF-19 is put up against his former friend/romantic rival, Guld, pilot of the YF-21. He has a fateful meeting with Myung, and the two have conflicting emotions towards a shared past they could not easily disclose to Guld.
