  • Britai Kridanik(ブリタイ・クリダニクBuritai Kuridaniku) is a fictional character in the Macross universe. He first appears in the original Macross. He also appears in Macross: Do You Remember Love? and Macross: Flash Back 2012. The original Japanese romanization of the character's name according to Studio Nue is Vrlitwhai Kridanik. The creators of Macross originally gave this and other Zentradi character names unusual romanizations to befit their alien nature. Britai is a Zentradi fleet commander in charge of his own fleet under the Boddole Zer Main Fleet. As a commander type Zentradi he is much larger and stronger than the normal Zentradi soldier and can even survive in the vacuum of space for limited periods of time, allowing him to go toe to toe with a Battroid. He was played by the late Eiji Kanie in the original Japanese version and John Gremillion in the English dub. Since Kanie's death in 1985, he has been played by Ryūzaburō Ōtomo in the Macross video games. The Britai fleet was pursuing surviving Supervision Army ships when they stumbled on Earth and the rebuilt Macross. When the booby trap system in the Macross fired on Britai's recon team it started Space War I. The fact that the humans possessed reaction weaponry (nuclear devices) — a technology the Zentradi have lost — and that the humans were "miclone" roused Britai's curiosity and made him pursue the Macross personally and relentlessly, even as his orders changed with every new revelation concerning the Humans. Because of his long exposure to human culture, he was one of the early defectors to the human side, helping in ending the war in the battle of February 11, 2010. In the aftermath of Space War I, he also helped capture a Zentradi factory satellite for the new United Nations in October 2011. Years after the war was over and peace was signed, the new U.N. assigned him as commander of the New U.N. Spacy in 2016 A.D.
