Synopsis: The basic story of Yamato 2199 is the same as the first Yamato anime set in 2199, but Yutaka Izubuchi, who worked on mechanical designs and science-fiction concepts on some of the earlier projects in the franchise, is serving as chief director. The new series is a remake of the original Space Battleship Yamato TV series from 1974, with some changes in the main story, new characters (including several female ones), a more modern tech design, and an animation style inspired by that of the original series.
The year is 2199. The human race has been crushed in their war with the Garmillans, driven into underground cities by the invader's assault. Scientists estimate they have only a year left. The young officers Susumu Kodai and Daisuke Shima receive a mysterious capsule from a ship that made an emergency landing on Mars and return with it to Earth. It contains humanity's last hope: the planet Iscandar on the other side of the Magellan Galaxy has the technology to defeat the Garmillans and restore the planet. The space battleship Yamato is entrusted with this task, but they have only one year before humanity ends.
QUOTE (Knorris908 @ Apr 12 2013, 04:31 PM)This show is definitely in my top 4. And only #4 because I'm including "Space Battleship Yamato 2199" in my ranking because I am still watching it. SO much better than "Star Blazers" for those who can remember...
But then again, I was STOKED to catch each episode of "Jayce And The Wheeled Warriors" each afternoon after classes tooas quoted from the Oregairu thread I concur and so far i'm impressed about how well this new adaptation is done compared to the disappointing, short series Leiji Matsumoto's Ozma a year ago ¬¬ err anyway I have watched up to ep.14 of SBY 2199 and I can't wait to check out next eps subbed... now that the movies are airing on japanese TV since last week I couldn't miss this chance to discuss about them, unlike last year -.- (70's songs and its sound effects FTW!) ^^ expection: high - initial score: 8/10 & currently 9/10
