	Musicians - Mylene Flare Jenius

Mylene Flare Jenius (ミレーヌF ジーナス, Mirēnu F. Jīnasu) is a fictional character in the Macross universe. She first appears in Macross 7, and also appears in the movie Macross 7: The Galaxy is Calling Me and the OAVs Macross 7 Encore and Macross Dynamite 7. She is voiced by Tomo Sakurai.

Mylene is the seventh and youngest daughter of Maximilian and Milia Jenius, the human and Zentradi couple (respectively) from the series The Super Dimension Fortress Macross. At the beginning of the series Macross 7 she is 14 years old and living in an apartment of her own aboard the eponymous spaceship. Her parents (one the ship's captain, the other mayor of the domed City 7) are also aboard but are separated. Mylene is their only child still living in close proximity and has proven to be as wilfull as her parents. Her mother wants her to settle down and marry career fighter pilot Gamlin Kizaki, a protege of hers, and her father worries about her wild nature as well. However, what Mylene wants to be is to be a rock star, so against her parents' wishes she joins the rock band Fire Bomber as a bassist and vocalist. It emerges that she inherited her parents' natural piloting skills and can pilot a variable fighter extremely well; though all are initially opposed to a young girl facing such danger, she is ultimately allowed to join Sound Force, piloting her own customized VF-11MAXL Kai whose control systems have been modified to resemble a bass electric guitar.

She is a cheerful yet headstrong young girl, still unsure of her own feelings. On one hand she likes and admires Gamlin Kizaki, the man her mother chose for her, and enjoys their uncomplicated and, for the most part, platonic relationship. However, she is also fascinated by Fire Bomber's lead vocalist/guitarist Basara Nekki, despite his constant selfishness and rudeness to her; she nags him constantly, and becomes jealous whenever she sees him with another woman. This leads to one of the Macross universe's infamous love triangles, and she is relieved when the two men end their bickering and become friends, though her hatred of uncertainty -- in this case, whom she loves more -- becomes a source of endless frustration for her (as well as her mother).

She has a pet named Guvava, a Gyarashi from the planet Pukirases V. He is an intelligent rodent whose fur is so thick he resembles a tribble with eyes. He was rescued from his predator-rich environment by Maximilian Jenius, who gave him to his youngest daughter to care for. Though initially withdrawn, Guvava grew to become fiercely devoted to his "mistress" and can often be seen perching on her shoulder. He is telepathically linked to her and can seek her out when they are separated, and understand her speech, though he can only communicate in squeaks. In the presence of danger he rears up, his fur developing angry spikes, and he will even leap to attack if provoked.
